A TRAGEDY IN TENNESSEE.
A Prominent Business Man of Millersburs
Found Murdered and Mutilated
by the Roadside.

ATLANTA, Ga, Aug. ia special to
the Journal from War Trace, Tenn,
says: L Rawlins, a prominent business
man of Millersburg, has been found
murdered on the road near his home.
His body was riddled with bull
let's and shockingly mutilated. He
was disemboweled and the body
cut almost in two. The body was found
by John Pruett, who says he heard
pistol shots in that vicinity several
hours before. Rawlins was recently
married to a young woman who was
the belle of the neighborhood. 1t was
thought that Rawlins had been
murdered by tramps, but suspicion
now rests on VIM. Fullxs, Rawlins'
neighbor, who is a cousin of
his wife Fulks called at the Rawlins
home short time after Rawlins had
left and on being told of the departure
started in the same direction. Fulks
recently purchased a revolver and cart
ridges at Bell Buckle, Tenn. He was
not present at the funeral, and is said
to have left town.

SPANISH MAIL TO BE RESUMED.
The United States VIII Act Promptly and
Spain Expected to Do Likewise
Incidental Questions.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.-The mail
service between the United States and
Spain will be resumed promptly, SO far
as the United States is concerned.
The two countries now being
practically at peace the officials
here see no reason why the
mail service before not be reopened
uncensored as during the war, and
hereafter the restrictions will be re-
moved. Although no word to that
effect has come from Spain, the pre-
sumption is a similar course will be
adopted by that government. AS there
are no transatlantic steamship lines
between American and Spanish ports,
nearly if not all of the mail matter
destined for Spain will be sent, as
heretofore, via France, the latter coun.
try in this manner only acting as the
medium of communication.
Soon steps will be taken by the post
Office department looking to the re.
sumption of regular mail communica-
ton between the United States and
Cuba and Porto Rico. The attitude OF
the Spanish officials in the islands OIL
certain questions incidental to this will
have to be ascertained and defined be.
fore anything final in this direction
can be announced.

cUBANs CAUSING TROUBLE.
Their Attitude One of Sullen Hostility TO
the Americans-Cuban Army To 30
Paid on and Disbanded.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Aug. I6.-Trouble-
with the Cubans is breeding. Their
attitude is one of sullen hostility
toward Americans. The better class
in Cuba favor the annexation of the
island to the United States, and ma
iority of the mass is ready and anxious
to work and accept the shelter and pro-
lection afforded by an American pro-
tectorate, but they are Influenced by q
certain class of rabid orators and breed
ers of sedition and rebellion against
anything and everything smacking OF
law and order.
This infiammatory class de mands
and urges the recognition of Cuba for
Cubans, and spurns all offers or sug-
gestions tending to prosperity under
an American protectorate, and excites
popular discomfort. This is exactly
the class that pushes itself most into
evidence and whose views and opinions
are most overL card and published to
the world.
Their advice to the Cubans is to re-
pudiate all offers of peace or a cessa-
ton of hostilities and to look upon an
| armistice as an agreement between the
United States and Spain on their own
account and not binding upon the free
and independent state of Cuba. whose
liberating army not only repudiates
pacification, but will ignore the armis-
tice to the point of continuing to wage
war and shooting every Spaniard in
the field.
A wild rumor is afoat to the effect
that the Cuban army will attack San
tiago and capture it to the glory of the
Cuban arms, as soon as the American
garrison is weakened. This is directly
traceable to the same source.
The influence exerted by such a body
of men against law and order is for
midable. This hysterical people de-
mands suppression with an iron hand.
While still in embryo, this influence is
already felt among certain classes who
refuse to work or serve the government
until clear statement of the freedom
and independence of their country Is
| made.
A knowledge of this condition is i'm
perative to the molding of future pol
icy and to explain whatever harsh steps
may be rendered necessary in dealing
with the insurgents.
A secret meeting was held last night
at the palace between the commanding
| officers of the American army and the
| Cuban leaders.
The strictest secrecy was main
tanned, but it can be said with good au-
thority that Gen. Garcia was present.
The meeting lasted an hour and II half.
The information obtained is to the eff
feet that the Cuban situation was thor
oughly reviewed, and it was resolved
to disband the Cuban army and that the
United States should pay the men off.
This involves the expenditure of $l5,-
600, 0oo, but it is most important to the
prosperity of the island, whose wealth
is entirely agricultural; nobody, plant
er or. farmer, daring to cultivate his
lands while the insurgent bands are in
the field raiding and burning.

THE SUTROESTATE INSOLvENT
Much of the Property Mortgaged, and In
terest aud Expenditures Eating
the Estate Up.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 16.-The Even
ing Post says that the $1,000, 900 estate
of the late Adolph Sutro is insolvent
and that unless the creditors agree to
withdraw their claims for the time be-
ing that the estate will be hopelessly
swamped Much of Sutro's property
is mortgaged and the interest and ex
penditures are eating the estate ur
very rapidly. The executors of the
estate say that if time is given them.
every possible demand will be met.
and that there will be a large residue
for the heirs. The attorneys for the
Sutro estate deny that there is an
other will, and say that Mrs. Kluge's
claims are groundless.

BREACH OF NEUTRALITY LAWS
Germany Adds Another to the Many In

NEW YORK, Aug. 16.-The extraor-

dispatches from Hong Kong OF
the arrival there on board the
German cruiser Kaiserein Au-
gusta, of Gen. August, the
governor-general of the Philippine is
lands, and who, until Thursday last,
when the vessel sailed from Hong Kong,
