KNOCKED FROM TOP OF TRAIN.
Man Picked Up Unconscious Under
 Osborn Street Bridge

About 11:3O last night Sergeant Hayes of the Grand avenue police pre- cinct heard groans coming from be- meath the Osborn street railroad bridge and upon going to investigate found a man lying unconscious on the east bound track. He had evidently been knocked from the top of car by the bridge. The sergeant called the police ambulance and had the man taken to the New Haven hospital, where it was found that he had sustained a slight scalp wound on the left side of the head. The mans name is John Ham, mil of No 2S Chaffee street, Providence, R. l., where he has a wife and three children living. He is telegraph line man and is out of work and in search of employment It was most fortunate for him that he was found by Ser geant Hayes, as had he not been found he would undoubtedly have been ground under the wheels of the next outgoing train.

Well Planned Hold Up,

Breckinridge, Col, Aug. 12.-A well planned hold-up took place here in the Denver hotel, but owing to the alarm caused by the accidental discharge of a shotgun held by one of the three rob- bers they did not go through the safe or cash register and secured only about $50 in money from a till, several gold watches and other jewelry.

 Suspension of Hostilities.


 Suspension of Hostilities.
 Washington Aug. 12.-At Il o'clock tonight Adjutant General Corbin re- ceived from General Shafter an ack- nowledgement of the receipt by him of the proclamation of the president. Up to midnight no reply had been received from General Miles, it having been inn possible to get into communication With him.
 All of the corps commanders of the army were notified of the suspension of hostilities. In response to the notifica- tion sent to General Fitzhugh Lee, the former consul general at Havana wired the war department: Thanks The Seventh corps has ceased firing. Unof- ficially it was understood that General Lees command was being reserved for ty for one should arise. As an official of the war department expressed 1t to- night: Tt is a bit of the sarcasm of fate that Lee did not have a part in the active operations in Cuba or Porto Rico"
 General Shafter said: Telegram re- ceived Message as to peace negotia- tions being about concluded. Will no- tify Spanish at Holguin by courier to- morrow and Cienfuegos by wire, and will try to get Havana, Will also mo- tify all Cuban forces I can reach.

ADTICES FROM MADRID.
Papers Discuss Situation Quietly Great
 Relief in Government Circles.

Relief in Government Circles.
 Madrid, Aug. 12, midnight.-The pro- tocol will be published simultaneously in the Official Gazette here and in Washington The papers discuss the situation quietly, and great relief is felt in government and court circles that President Mckinley has not demanded a convocation of the cortes to approve the peace preliminaries. The cortes will now not be summoned until au- tumn by which time it is expected that the agitation of the extremists will have cooled down and the country have become more inclined to accept accom- plished facts.
 The commission to meet in the West Indies will be composed, it is under stood, of military officers and 1t is be- lieved here that this commission will pave the way for commercial treaties and for recognition by the United States or Cuba of a portion of the Cu- ban debt. The suggestion that Senor Moret, former minister for the colonies, may preside over the Paris commission is not very popular. Various names are mentioned in connection with the personnel, but nothing as yet has been settled.
 Senor Sagasta has again assured the queen regent that he does not fear Carlist trouble, and the Carlists them selves appear to recognize that the country is not in the temper that would support a Carlist rising. They are now speculating in the return of the discontented repatrioted army, hoping for mischief there. The government has decided to withdraw its prohibition of wheat export from and after Monday next.

The comment mainly turns on the fact that the protocol leaves untouched the hardest problems now facing America. The Times believes it will be a real peace, adding: We trust it is no vio- lation of neutrality to express the sat isfaction of the great majority of Eng lishmen in Americas success and we further the prediction that Cuba. twen- ty years hence, will be a prosperous and tranquil island"

Providence, R. l., Aug. 12.-C. Oliver Iselin of New York, manager of the yacht Defender, which successfully de- tended Americas cup against Lord Dunraven's yacht Valkyrie, visited Bristol to-day and spent several hours in consultation with the Herreshoffs. Before leaving, MT. Iselin was asked if his visit had to do with the ordering of a boat to defend the Americas cup. In reply he stated that he could not say anything at this time as 1t was too early. The Bristol builders have been in consultation with a number of New York yachtsmen recently, and it is thought that they expect an order to build a cup defender, should the contest be decided upon
