Convict Slashes Two Guards With IA Razor
and Is Shot.
DENVER, Dec. 13.-A mutipy occurred
in the state penitentiary at Canon City
yesterday and three men were injured,
one seriously. AS the prisoners were
being seated for breakfast, George Mil
Ter, doing five years for robbery, drew a
razor from underneath his blouse and
made dash at r. B. Lamoreaux, a
guard. Lamoreaux reported Miller on
Thanksgiving day for some infringe
ment of the prison rules, and the pris-
oner threatened to kill Lamoreaux.
When Miller drew the razor Guard Van
Gohren grabbed the prisoner around the
waist before he reached Lamoreaux, but
Miller turned on him and slashed him
numerically over the face and neck,
before the guard could get at his gun.
Van Gohren fell to the floor, bleeding
profusely. Miller then attacked Guard
Fitzpatrick and had begun to use his

uPRoAR IN FRENCH CHAMBER.

FIsticuffs Enliven Warm Debates Over
the Dreyfus Affair.
PARIS, Dec. 13.-In the chamber Of
deputies M. Grosset (Radical Socialist)
interpellated the government on the in
discretions of the general staff in the
Dreyfus affair. He read extracts from
newspaper articles which are alleged to
have emanated from members Of the
general staff, which caused a violent
uproar, during which the deputies rose
and rushed at one another and engaged
in a series Of fist fights. M. Grosset
continued his remarks in the middle of
this tdmult. He said the center Of re-
sistance to the revision Of the Dreyfus
case was no longer the ministry of war;
1t was elsewhere. AS to the secret
documents in the case, he pointed out
that they had been ridiculed by En-
peror William himself. M. Grosset
continuing, spoke of the articles in the
newspapers Oh which it was limited that
Russia and the czar were mixed up in
the Dreyfus affair and he also alluded
to the recent semiofficial note relative
to the minister Of foreign affairs, M.
Delcasse, being obliged to explain GER
tain statements to the German ambas-
sador relative to the latter's daughter.
(Uproar and hoots.)
M. Dupuy asked the chamber to close
the discussion and adopt the order Of
the day, which was done by vote of
yeas, 1858; nays, Is. The house then adj
journed.

BUTTE, Mont, Dec. 14.-Five deaths
occurred in Butte, which are asserted to
have been caused by the dreadful sui
phur and arsenic fumes from the
smelters Many people who can do SO
are leaving the city to get out of the
smoke. A mass meeting of citizens was
called for last night to take steps
against the deadly nuisance. The five
persons whose deaths it is asserted are

Compact Makes Nearly Six Hundred Type
written Pages-Madrid Government APP
proves Protest Filed by Rios-Comment
of Spanish Press.
PARIS, Dec. 12-Further details have
been learned of the wording of the
treaty of peace, which was signed Sat-
urday by the joint commission repre-
resenting the United States and Spain.
1t provides that Cuba is to be relin.
pushed and that Porto Rico and the
Philippines are to be coded. The Amer
leans are to pay for the repatriation of
the Spanish troops from all the colonies.
The Spaniards are to return all prison
ers held by them. They are to retain
possession of all military stores and
munitions of war in the Philippines and
of such ships as have not been captured.
The commercial treaties between the
two nations which the war ruptured are
to be renewed at the convenience of the
two nations. The protocol makes nearly
800 typewriter pages. Several of the
| United States commissioners were in
clined at first to publish the text Of the
treaty, but Senator Frye made strong
plea yesterday for the observance of
courtesy toward the United States SEN
ate and his arguments prevailed.
The Spaniards charge equal blame
upon the European powers and the
United States for their downfall. One
of the Spanish commissioners said:
"The European nations have made a
great mistake in deserving Spain and
leaving her to spoliation by the brute
force of a constituencies giant. They
all know that in the Philippines America
has taken more than she can digest.
She will ultimately sell the islands to
England or Germany and when the
transfer is attempted it will precipitate
a general European strife. We have
refused to sell any island in the Caro-.
lines. We never thought of consider
ing an offer.

Madrid Approves the Protest.

MADRID, Dec. 12.-The government
entirely approves the memorandum of
protest against the action of the United
States commissioners filed by Senior
Montero Rios at Paris. The memor-
andum protests against the refusal of
the Americans to surrender the securi-
ties deposited in the treasures of Cuba
and Porto Rico by private Spaniards,
remarking that "never has a civilized
nation committed such an act of vio-
lence." Secondly, it protests against
the ultimatum demanding the Philip.
pines. Thirdly. it protests against the
position in which those Spaniards are
placed who desire to remain in Cuba.
Fourthly, it protests against the refer
ence to the destruction of the Maine in
President McKinley's message to con-
gress.
The newspapers generally express re-
lief at the signing Of the treaty. Ell I'm
parcial alone publishes the contents Of
the treaty, which produces less I'M
favorable impression than had been ex-
pected, owing to the commercial and
other concessions to Spain.
