RECORDS DESTROYED
Explosion Of Gas Causes a
 Disastrous Wreck.
An ExDIosion Occurs in the United States Supreme Court Room in inc Capitol Bui ding.

Washington, Nov. 6.-The United States supreme court room located near the center of the capitol, is wrecked, the valuable law library connected with it is seriously damaged and many of the valuable records of the court filed away in vaults beneath that portion Of the capitol have been destroyed. This is the result Of an explosion oi gas which occurred in the sub-basement of the capitol just be- meath the supreme court room at 5:20 o'clock this afternoon.
 The explosion destroyed the flooring and entrance to the room immediately below the supreme court room and the ire which followed communicated at once to the law library and supreme court room. Only for small flame of burning gas the fire had been extin- guished at 7:30 o'clock
 The explosion destroyed the lighting apparatus in the immediate vicinity and because of total darkness it is hard to learn the exact damage. Those about the building at the time of and immediately after the explosion all agree that it came from gas, though there is q difference of opinion as to what cauSsd it.

RAILROAD TUNNEL ON FIRE.
The Disastrous Fire Delays Central
 Pacific Trains.

Sacramento, Cal, Nov GA very disastrous fire occurred this after noon at tunnel 13 on the Central Pa cif1c railroad between Summit and Truckee A fire started about 600 fee. from the eastern end of the tunnel. It then attacked the tunnel timbers and burned all the snow sheds up to tha tunnel. It then attacked the tunnel timbers and burned through the en tire length of the tunnel, 300 feet. Fire trains were promptly ssnt from Truckee and Summit, but they could not enter the tunnel. The train from Truckee could only prevent the fire from spreading at the west end.
 The tunnel itself was filled with smoke and gases so that no one could enter it. Superintendent Wright has sent big force of mechanics to repair the damage, but the condition of the tunnel is not yet known. If the tim bers are only partially burned, and there has been no caving of earth. trains may get through within twenty four hours.

An Army Officer In Porto Rico Writes
 10 the Secretary of War.

Washington, Nov. 6.-The secretary of war has received an interesting re- port from prominent regular army officer 2t Ponce in regard to the condi- Etion of affairs in Porto Rico. He says in part:

General Wade Thought | Selected to Command States Forces in Cu6
 Designated for S

Washington, Nov. 6.-The govsrr- merit of Cuba has given the admins traition much concern and it's form has not yet been definitely determined upon. Since issuing the order dcsig- hating the troops to go to Cuba, there has been considerable talk at the war department about the probable com mander of the troops in Cuba and the organization Of the government civil and military. The probab.lities now are that Cuba will be designated as one department and placed under the command of one officer. The general impression seems to be that that of f1cer will be Major-General Wade, HOW chairman of the Cuban military con- mission, whose duties as a member of this commission has fitted him for the office.
 There has been no change in the plans e. the war de- partmerla about the sending of troops to Cuba No date has ever bsen fixed when troops shall depart, and the only thing that has been determined upon is that the control of the island shall pass to tie Unified States Janu- ary l.

Wood Unable to Return to the
 United States Now.

Washington, Nov. GA few months ago General Wood, in command of the city of Santiago, intimated to the sec ertary of war that he would like to come home on leave of absence, but in view of the fact that General Lawton has turned over the command of the department of Santiago to General Wood and has been assigned to corps command in the United States it will be impossible for General Wood to re- turn to this country at present Gen eral Wood has made up his mind to remain at Santiago, has taken house there and Mrs. Wood and children will sail for Santiago soon.

CONSUL BRICE.
His Statement of Conditions Exist
ing in Matanzas Province.

The communications from Mr.. Brice,
Consul at Matanzas, number only seven
or eight. and most of them are brief.
The correspondence from him begins
with the 18th of November last and
closed with the Sth of February. 1895.
Probably the most striking feature Of
Mr. Brice's communications is a dis.
tinct article written on the 18th Of
destitution. In this he notes the re-
ceipt of a circular letter of the state
Department dated ten days before.
ut is" he says. ''intmated that help
is to be extended by the United States
to the starving people OF Cuba. The
news of this relief has been known for
the past two weeks, and has extended
all over the province. This consulate
has been overwhelmed with people Of
all classes asking to be remembered
when relief comes"
MIR. Brce then gives a number Of
facts illustrating the suffering in the
province. He says there are in Matan-
zas Province alone 10000 people who
are in actual starving condition and
require food. clothing and medicines.
Continuing. he says: I'm addition to
the above are families of the better
class and formerly well to do. who to-
day are living on one meal a day. and
that very scant. They have sold or
pawned furniture. jewelry. clothing.

and praying for Gods sake to be G.
membered when this relief comes from
the United States.
One has to be here to know and
mingle with these people to fully real
ize the terrible destitution and misery
existing in Cuba. 1t is to be hoped
that this relief from the United States
Will come quickly. for hundreds are dy-
ing daily of starvation. Conditions are
dreadful. and no relief is afforded "
the Spanish authorities
In his first communication of the
series. dated November 18th. Mr.. Brice
stated that neither the Spanish or the
Cubans of this section We're in sympathy
with the proposed autonomy and re-
forms. He notes the issuance of the

, order to municipal authorities to issue
rations and clothing, but says that no
: attention was paid to it. In this COM
munication he places the death rate at
over SO persons daily, nearly all of whom

and clothing.
AS l write this he says. "a dead

300 yards of this Consulate. starved to
death She died some time this morn
ing, and Will lie there maybe for. days .
MIR. Brice also notes the issuance of an
order allowing the -econcentrados to re-
turn to the country, but he says the re-
strictions in the order are such as to
practically prohibit. If they went, -
he says, what would they do without
money and food or shelter?" adding
/ only those who can obtain employment
on the plantations can live Insurgents
say no one will be allowed to grind in
the prev nee Cf MatanZas. The situation
is indeed desperate and / am free to say
that no reasonable help can be expected
from the Spanish Government, and the
fate of the remaining concentrates is
death from starvation"
Writing on the 1lth of Decem ber, MI
Brice says that the relief of the recon
centrados and other poor by the Spanish
authorities is Intellectual Il have" he
says, personally visited The headquar-
/ ters Of the distribution stations Two
thousands rations were given out COR a
few days only to 5000 people. There are
more than $4,000 starving people in this
city. One out of four or six receive
two ounces OF rice, one and d hall
ounces Of jerked beef and sometimes q
small piece of bread per diem. Even
this small amount of food has been dis

Mr.. B-ice mentions several instances
OF distress, among others the following

three, and they barely alive He says
again that General Biancn's order al
| lowing reconcentrados TO return ant
cultivate their crops is imperative, and
of no avail.
Writing on the 18th of January, he
says: The people are shut up in the
cities and towns like rats to starve. We
have fifteen or eighteen families of re-
concentrates who own property in the
country and We're not allowed to go to
their homes. All these have begged and
pleaded with the authorities under
Blanco's order to go and We're in every
case refused
