iury-Furniture Destroyed.

DANVILLE, VA, September 16.-(Spe-
cial)-At 1880 last night fire broke out in
the Hotel Normandie. which is next to the
largest hosiery in Danville. The flames
started from some unknown cause in an
unoccupied room in the third story.
At first it was thought there was only
q small blaze, and it was believed that
the fire could be extinguished by the
chemical apparatus Indeed the fire de-
partment was about to return to its quar-
tiers. when the flames burst forth afresh.
Just as the department got well to work
a part Of the apparatus became disabled
by an accident, and the fire made rapid
Roadway.
VERY THREATENING.
At one time the post-ofiice and United
States courthouse, which adjoins. were
in great danger, but at this moment Q2:3O

be kept within the hotel walls.
The hotel and most of the furniture is

mandie; NJ. Francisco, confectioner; o.

here a number OF years, and conducted
the Hotel Carolina. opposite the Norman

Hazleton, Pa, June S.-A. S. Van
Wyckle, the millionaire coal operator
and philanthropist of this city, was ac-
cidentally killed here to-day while par
ticipating in clay pigeon shoot out
side of the city limits. Mr.. Van
Wyckle leaned over his gun with the

TRANSPORTS FOR PHILIPPINES.
Capacity for $4,000 1Ien-steps to Inn
press some Vessels.

Washington, June 8.-Assistant Sec
retary Meiklejohn Of the war depart
ment announced to-day that the prob
lem of securing an adequate number
of ships to go to the Philippines ap
peared to have been solved. He made
this statement after having chartered
six ships in addition to those heretofore
named and taken the preliminary steps
for obtaining five more under certain
conditions. If the latter are secured,
the war department will have at it's
disposal altogether eighteen ships for
the Philippine expedition, enough to
accommodate as many thousand men,
should they be put to that use. a.
1t is with considerable regret that
government officials have been COM
PEELED to take the initiatory steps for
impressing vessels into the service of
the government. This, however, they
have found necessary in the case of the
three vessels of the Pacific Coast
Steamship company, which are desired
by the department, and which they
have been unable to secure because of
an inability to agree upon terms. The
vessels referred to, viz, TIL Senator,
the Queen, and the City of Pueblo,
have not yet been actually impressed
into the government service, but will
be If after an examination by General
Merritt they are found to be in satis-
factory condition for service.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.
Crews of the Two Former Universities

Gales Ferry, Conn.,, June S.-The
oarsmen from Harvard reached their
quarters at "Redtop" shortly before 2
p. m. and were distributedt along the
oarsmen occupying quarters at Red
top" the freshmen being located with
Captain Moulthrop at "Riverview,"
with Coach Lehman of the Varsity,
r. C. Sporrow, the freshmen coach, and
DR.. A. C. Coolidge, who is to conduct
the examinations here, being establish
ed at the Kimball cottage. This was
Coach Lehman's first appearance at
the training quarters. At o'clock he
took the Varsity crew UP the river for
a practice spin and when about half
way up, and near the quarters of the
Yale crew the latters launch came out,
and the whistles of both launches toot-
ed salutes and Coaches Lehman and
Cook exchanged greetings. On ac-
count of the condition of the water the
Harvard crew rowed only in short
stretches.
The Yale crew INDUCED in it's regular
routine. About o'clock the crew went
out for it's final work of the day and
because of the rough water the crew
practiced in the river about Kitea-
maug, which afforded smoother water,
though all the while the wind was
blowing fresh from the south, shorten
ing the evenings practice. AS it is al
most too soon to get a line on the work
of the crews it is apparent that Har-
ward does more leg work than Yale,
but does not show the suppleness above
the waist; they pull a steady stroke
however. The Harvard oarsmen ap-
pear to be bigger, though it is thought
Yale is the heavier.

Copyright, 1898. The Associated Press)
Havana, June S.-Yesterday after
noon the British cruiser Talbot sailed
from Havana. On board were Messrs.

the English newspaper correspondents
who were arrested some time ago at
Matanzas The Talbot also carried
Messrs. Edward and Pinkey, who were
expelled from the island on suspicion
of being spies; Charles Todd and a
number of other passengers. These
include "Sister" Mary Wilberforce, of
the British Red Cross society, who ar
rived in Cuba year ago and against
whom an order of expulsion was issued
last January because, as asserted, she
had failed to comply with certain gov
ernment orders. This order, however,
was not enforced then, Miss Wilber-
force being allowed to remain in the
island. Charges had recently again
been brought against her and the
edict Of expulsion was carried out, Miss
Wilburforce being taken on board the
steamer by force, though she was
treated with all possible gentleness.
1t is reported that Ell Gallego, the in
surgent leader who since the invasion
had made himself notorious by his
blood thirsty acts was killed in skir
mish near Guira, Havana province. De-
tails of the attack by insurgents upon
railway train near Canara, province
of Pinar del Rio, yesterday say that af-
ter derailing the train and overturning
one of the cars by means of dynamite
bomb, the insurgents attacked the train,
but were compelled to retire after a
conflict with the escort, leaving two of
their number dead. Two of the trains
passengers and two volunteers were
killed and two officers and eight volun-
teers wounded.

THE TWELFTH Gems Us.
A Bill Providing for 1t Passed by the
Senate.

Washington, June 8.-A bill provid-
ing for the taking Of the twelfth CEN
sus was passed by the senate to-day
after a debate which occupied the
greater part Of three days. Several
weeks ago census bill was presented
by the committee having the matter in
charge, but the measure was so unsat-
isfactory that it was recommitted to
the committee. The bill passed to-day
was introduced in lieu Of that which
was recommitted and, as slightly
amended, received the unanimous sup
port of the senate. Under it, If it
should become a law, director of the
census, an assistant director and five
expert statisticians will be appointed
Immediately to make their preliminary
arrangements for the taking of the CEN
sus of 1900 in accordance with the out
line presented heretofore. A determine
ed effort was made to provide that the
employees of the census bureau should
be examined and certified by the civil
service commission, but it failed by a
vote of Is to 81. A provision was in
serted that not more than two-thirds
of the, supervisors and enumerators

REPORT THAT MANILA HAS FALLEN
News Reaches Hong Kong-Philippine
Insurgents Occupy City.

New York, June "a copyright dis
patch to the World from Hong Kong
says: A report has reached here that
Manila has fallen. 1t is said to be
now occupied by the Philippine insur-
gents commanded by. General Aguinal-
do. The rebel junta and wealthy Phil
ippine islanders resident here are jubi-
liant over the news. The United States
consulate has been crowded all day.
The American consul, Mr.. Wildman,
has been the recipient of hundreds of
congratulations, for the junta gives
him almost as much credit for the re-
ported capture of Manila as they give
to General Aguinaldo himself since Mr..
Wildman has been their unswerving
champion and has advised in all their
plans. Consul Wildman does not credit
the report that Manila has been actu-
ally occupied yet, but he believes that
it will be by next Saturday. The
Spaniards have been fighting desper-
ately, but their craftsmanship is poor
and they have lost heavily.

HUNTING SENIOR JIMTYEs.

President Heureaux of Sam Domingo
After Leader of Revolutfontsts.
Cape Haytien, Hayti, June 8.-MucI1
mystery was observed regarding the
visit of the Dominican gunboat Restor-
aion to this port yesterday evening. IT.
transpires this morning that President
Heureaux of Santo Domingo was
aboard the vessel and that from here
he goes to Enagua, where Senior Jimi-
nes was last known to be located. The
Restoration left Cape Haytien early this
morning Commodore Jansen, who
came ashore shortly after the arrival
of the Restoration to receive the report
of the Dominican consul on the alleged
illegal shipment Of men from this point
by Senors Jimines and Morales to take
part in the landing of the revolutionistS
at Monte Cristi, spent the greater part
of the night with the consul. The Do
minican gunboat Independcia did not
enter this port yesterday in company
with the Restoration as cabled last
night. She proceeded to Port de Paix
in order to investigate the report of the
presence of Jimines at that place just
before the revolutionary attempt at
Monte Cristi. It is understood that If
President Heureaux finds that Jimines
is still at Enagua he will make an effort
to induce the authorities there to de-
liver the insurgent leader over to him
on the charge Of piracy.

AT CAMP HAVEN,
Troops Leave To-day for Maine Ex-
animation of Naval Militia.

Camp Haven, United States Military
Post, Mantle, Conn.,, June S.-The four
companies of the First regiment of in
fantry that are to take their departure
tomorrow for Fort Knox, Me-, paraded
this afternoon before large assem-
blage of visitors, including many rela-
tives and friends of the soldiers. The
villagers also turned out in large num-
bers, and after the parade the last
named waited upon Colonel Burdette
and expressed their regrets at his de-
parture and were very complimentary
to the soldiers for the gentlemanly
manner in which they deported them
selves and the utter lack of any annoy
ances. When the soldiers learned Of
the opinions entertained by the villag-
ers there was much cheering.
The examination of the Naval Re-
serves continues steadily, but at the
present rate 1t Is doubtful If it will be
concluded before the middle of next
week. At the close of the physicians
labors to-day fortysf1ve men had been
examined and only three rejected. All
drill and routine duty has been sus-
pended and the men will be given an
opportunity to consult their text books
and prepare themselves as much as
possible for the "quizzing." About all
of the men are occupied with their
studies, and thus far they have con-
fined themselves very closely to their
quarters
The sailor lads have as much difficult
ty as their soldier predecessors in get
ting accustomed to the food supplied
by the government, and the pie wag-
on's appearance is hailed with delight,
especially while the finances hold out,
but it Is safe to say that in short
time, like the soldiers, they will be sat-
isfied to put up with the rations pro-
vided by Uncle Sam. The Naval Re-
serves are considerably disturbed over
report, from a supposedly reliable
source, that they will have to purchase
new uniforms. The government will
not accept state clothes and the boys
will have to proceed to the receiving
ships in canvas suits and there receive
their bag of dunnage containing all the
clothing allowed. The government de-
| mands $40 for the clothes and this sum
is deducted from the wages.

TWO COUNTERFETTERS CAUGHT.
Were Trying to Pass Spurious So Bills
Yesterday.

Antonio Arano was arrested yester-
day afternoon by Policemen McGovern
and Connolly, and Vincenzo Rosso by
Detective Donnelly, both men being
charged with passing counterfeit
money. Arano was arrested first. He
had entered Mrs James Martano's ci-
gar store at 30S Congress avenue and
bought two cigars, rendering a 50 bill
in payment and receiving the change.
1t was soon discovered that the bill
was counterfeit and the police of the
Howard avenue station were notified.
Policemen McGovern and Connolly
were sent out to look up the fellow, and
word was sent to police headquarters,
where Detective Donnelly was also put
on the case. McGovern and Connolly
went through Oak streets and found
several places where the fellow had
tried to pass 81 bills. They finally
struck a store which he had just left.
He had entered the place and asked to
have 81 bill changed. The proprietor
did not have the change, but took the
bill across the street to get it changed
and was told there that the bill was
a counterfeit. 1t was a few minutes
after this that the fellow was arrested
by the two policemen. He was later
taken to police headquarters and there
said that he had come from Mamaro-
neck, N. Y, and was staying at 18
Union street. He was taken before
United States Commissioner Wright
and in default of 81 900 bonds was sent
to jail until next Monday, when he will
be further examined.
Mrs Mortano told the police that
when Arano was in her store she no.
ticed man waiting outside for him
and that the man outside wore brown
derby hat. Late yesterday afternoon
Detective Donnelly went to the place
at No IS Union street, a lodging house.
There he found man asleep upstairs
with his clothes on and wearing a
brown derby hat He arrested the
man, who gave his name as Vincenzo
Rosso. Detective Donnelly also took a
satchel belonging to Rosso, which was
double locked, one of the locks being a
paddock On being opened the satchel
was found to contain $500 in counter
felt 81 bills. One of the same kind of
bills was found upon Aroni when he
was searched at the station house
Rossi will be taken before the United
States commissioner to-day. He came
from New Orleans, and it was thought
he owns the bills and has hired Aroni
to pass them for him. Complaints were
received at police headquarters last
night from several persons on whom
the men had attempted to pass the
billsy
