The Caucus Decision Gives Satisfaction.
Capitol Hill Notes.

The decision Of the new Democratic city
committee to order q new caucus In Ward
will meet with tho general approval OF Dem
ooratic voters there. The first proposition
that was looked favorably upon, namely,
the seating OF the Wisdom delegates, would
have done the party good deal Of harm,
and, Judging by the vote of the ward last
spring the party is In had shape there. and
cannot safely be divided into two parts. The
friends OF Mr.. Lovett did some lively hus-
Ting Just before the last caucus, and whether
he had fair majority in that caucus or not,
he had hundreds of friends there whose
votes are very important In elections. There
is wide difference OF opinion rs to the fair
ness OF tho last fight. Men who nre honest In
there even politics state fair show was not
given the Wisdom men by the friends Of Mr..
Lovett who had control of affairs behind the
ballot box. On the other hand. the friends
Of Mr.. Lovett cite this instance of most
incompatible patience on their part:. A
man who bad voted four times for the Wis
dom delegates came mp to vote the fifth time.
and there was objection, and the Wisdomite
got rngry and claimed thero was unjust dis.
crimination against him, whereupon the
warden said: Nov, my friend. do be reason-
able. You have ALREADY voted for your
friends four times and certainly that Is all
the work they can possibly expect Of you"
The man whose vote was rejected continued to
shout fraud" tho rest OF the evening. The
second caucus will be held next Wednesday
evening.

help of a piece of plank, when the current
carried him out beyond his depth, and be-
coming frightened he let go OF the board aud

The Valley Camera Club held an interest
ing meeting at the residence OF Fred j. Hoxie
at Phenix last evening, and one new member
was admitted to the organization. A number
of lantern slides were exhibited and the
prizes in the portrait and snow scene com
petitions were both awarded TO John Shippee.
The residents in the neighborhood OF the
Phenix mill were awakened about IL o'clock
last night by cries for help coming from the
vicinity of small cotton house belonging to
the mill on Main street. but before they
could reach the place the cries ceased and
the majority OF those who had been awakened
returned TO their beds. A few minutes later
a hatless and greatly excited man stopped at
the Lippitt mill and told the watchman, John
Ray, that while passing the cotton house on
his way home from Phenix he had been
pounced on by two men, who threw him to
the ground, and when he cried out one OF
them seized him by the throat until he was
nearly insensible. While they hold hi,n on
the ground one of the men searched his
pockets and took nearly $50 which he had.
After robbing him the men gave him few
parting kicks and ran down the street and up
the Providence pike. he refused to give the
watchman his name, but said that no lived
at Riverpoint. Later he told his story to
Landlord Mcmahon OF the Clyde Hotel. but
hero Also refused to give his Name, and
although MIR. McMahon recognized Nm rs
resident OF the village, he dii not know who
he was.
James Herman, who drives baker's cart
for G. K. Williams Of Apponaug, also had an
experience with highwayman while on his
return from Lakewood last evening. but the
would-be Tobber was not so successful as his
comrades mt Phenix, and only secured
broken head for his trouble. Mr.. Herman
was driving through the woods near Hills
Grove, when the man suddenly jumped from
the side OF the road, and seiziny the rein
demanded a dollar, at the same time at
tempting to climb into the wagon. Herman
heat Inc man over the head with the butt
until ne cried for mercy, and releasing his
hold on the reins ran into the woods aud dis-
apusarod.

Some Of Our Wheat For Spain.
While it is hardly probable that consign-
ments of American wheat or flour are not
now being sent direct to Spain, there is no
reason I'm the world to doubt that some Of
the grain exported finds its way to that
country either as grain or flour.
In fact, there seems to be no feasible
way of preventing this, since wheat is con-
traband of war, except by blockading the
ports of Spain, and even II this were done
the shipment of wheat, ground and un-
ground, by land via France to Spain could
not be done away with, and so it Is pos
sible-nay, probable--that the men on the
Spanish naval vessels at Cadiz are now
feeding daily on bread made from Ameri-
can grain. DEXTER MARSHALL.

INSURRECTION SPREADING
Uselessness Of Sending Reinforce
menlS Admitted.
cAvITE NOW in REBELLION.

Madrid, June 9.-The following COM
munication from Captain General Az
gusti, dated at Manila. June 8, has been
published: THE situation Is very grave.
Aguinaldo has succeeded in stirring up
the country, and the telegraph lines and
railways are being cut. / am without
communication with the provinces. The
province Of Cavite has completely re-
belled; and the towns and villages are
occupied by numerous armed bands. A
Spanish column defends the Zapota line
to prevent the enemy invading the prov
ince of Manila; but the foe has ent0'ed
through Bulaoan. Lagina and Moron.
SO that Manila will thus be attacked by
land and sea.
II am striving TO raise the courage Of
the inhabitants and will exhaust every
means Of resistance; but distrust the
natives and the volunteers because there
have already been many desertions.
Baccor and linus have already been
seized by the enemy. The insurrection
has reached great proportions; and IL
cannot count upon the support of the
country, the forces at my disposal will
not suffice to hold the ground against
two enemies"
The commander Of the island Of Vis-
ayas sent two gunboats to the island Of
Luzon with instructions to try 10 COM
municate with Manila, but they were
compelled to return unsuccessful. The
government instructed the commander
TO restore communication with Manila
at all costs. General Correa declined to
furnish the text Of the dispatches for
publication on the ground that II would
be prejudicial to the country's interests,
but a member OF the government ad-
mitted that the dispatch of Spanish
troops to the Philippine Islands could not
change the situation. He said: I'VE
could send 5000 troops, but IL the natives
are against us such force would be
inadequate. If they were with us, 1t
would not be necessary to send troops to
the Philippines
