UTAH VOLUNTEERS
 HAVE GRIEVANCES
Company A Complains of Ill-Treat- ment, but Is Pacified by
 Captain Caine.

MADEIRA, Aug. 24.-Company A, First Utah Volunteers, who left San Francisco on August 13 for patrol duty at the national parks, departed from here this morning, sixty-five, under the command of Captain Joseph D. Kane, going to Yosemite Park, and thirty-fve, under Lieutenant B. X. Smith, to the Sequoia reservation in Tulare County.
 Considerable dissatisfaction pre- vailed among the company on account of the neglect of the quartermaster to properly look after the food supply. On their arrival at Madeira at 10 o'clock on Monday morning. after twenty-five mile ride in the hot sun. no provision was made for rations until about ' o'clock that evening. Those who got anything to eat during the day had to pay for 1t at the hotels and restaurants. On account of this and other grievances some of the men signed a petition ask ing to be mustered out of the service. When Captain Caine heard of the in subordination he sent for the leaders and explained to them the nature of the military offense they were commit ting, whereupon they dropped the mat ter.
 In addressing the company the cap tain said that he wanted to annul an order he had recently issued to the effect that he would not be bothered with the private or military differences and troubls of the men. This order seemed to have been responsible to certain extent for the insubordination.

GIBRALTAR Aug. 24-In Barcelona the labor question seems to be ap- preaching an acute stage. It is esti- mated that something like 5000 work men are penniless and on the verge of starvation.
 Articles of primary necessity have reached exaggerated prices and to cap all is the heat, which is terrific and causing outbreaks of disease among the semi This is all the more serious inasmuch as Barcelona Is a regular hotbed of republicanism. The Publicidad, a cleverly conducted paper of ferociously republican type, has twice incurred the displeasure of Cap tain General Des Pujols and has on each occasion been fined but the sec ond time the proprietor was informed that another offense would incur sup pression.
 This really means a political conflict, and its effect will bubble over to the surface again at the first favorable op- portunity. Then again there is a so- ciety formed in Barcelona with the avowed object of seeking annexation to France, and being so near the from tier and approachable in various di- rections, the situation is extremely fa- vorable to the inception of revolution ary operations whether instituted by Carlists or others.

UNCLE SANS GENEROSITY.

English Press Express Qualification
Over the Proposed "open Door"
Policy.
LONDON, Nov. 22.-The morning
papers concede the generosity Of
the offer Of the United States Peace
Commissioners, and express the
opinion that Spain would be foolish
to reject them. They express uni
versal qualification at the announce
ment OF an "open door" policy in
the Philippines.
The Daily Mail calls the offer of
$2O,O00,000 as indemnity, "a surpris-
ing act OF generosity"
The papers generally take it for
granted that the "open door" will be
adopted in the West Indies also.
The Daily News says: The United
States have now become an Asiatic
power, and Lord Salisbury clearly
had reason to predict that the ex-
pansion OF the United States would
give Great Britain valuable ally
in China seas.
