Washington, August 27.-(Special.)-
An interview in Washington paper has
ret the administration on edge, particu-
Early as IL comes from the venerable John
Sherman ex-secretary Of state, who was
until lately member Of the administra-
yion which it ussails The vigor Of ex-
preston and the fact that the interviewed
showed that he was close observer Of
men and events in connection with the
war, shows clearly that john Sherman is
not in his dotage. In the interview Mr..
sherman practically calls for an In
vestigation Of the whole administration,
while talking specifically of the war de-
partment. The matter that has caused
she gravest feeling ln administration
circles is the iutimation that If an in
yestigation proves at least half what is
claimed, the President of the United
States himself ought to be impeached.
sherman in his interview, which was
authorized, says:
The man who is responsible for the
mismanagement OF the Cuban campaign,
resulting in the needless loss of scores of
American soldiers lives and In the infic-

LISTERS BIC STRIKE.
Inaugurated in Brockton, Mass.- .-FOrty-
 one ShOna COmcerned.


 Brockton, Mass, Sept. 19.-The big strike of lasters for the new price list submitted a week ago commenced at 2 o'clock this afternoon and unless some settlement is speedily made it will sur pass the famous strike of several years ago. The present strike if the pro- gramme is carried out will extend over southwestern Massachusetts. Every laster in the forty-one shops of this city which were supplied with lists un- derstood that they were to come out to- day if the list was not accepted by the firm and to report to the union head quarters. As result the strike is fair ly general all over the city and but few of the smaller firms have conceded to the demands
 The answer to the call has been very gratifying to the labor leaders, who now predict that other manufacturers will sign who were waiting to see what action would be taken. Very few of the manufacturers will talk, but those who have, as a rule, are among the number who will not accept the list. There are number of firms that de- clare it an impossibility to do business and pay the prices demanded. They have to compete with the shops of Auburn, Me, and at best secure but a small margin. With the new list they would not be able to compete at all. There is every indication at the present time that compromise will be effected in some places that will maze the strike but matter of few days to them. Others will stick it out to the end. In most cases the lasters struck several firms for big advance.
 Altogether sos men, representing twenty-six shops are now out and twelve manufacturers, have, accepted the new scale of prices. A mass meet ing was held this evening at which over 500 men were present. The pre- vailing sentiment was strongly opposed to arbitrating the existing difficulties in those shops where the proprietors had asked for a conference at the last moment. Everything points to a short strike and a speedy settlement in favor of the strikrs.

CONDITIONS IN CUBA.
London Ttmes' Correspondent Writes of
 Outrages and Plunder.ng.

London, Sept. 20.-The Times this morning publishes letter from a Ha- vana correspondent in which the writer points out that though, as in the moth- CT country, there appears no disposi- tion among the Spaniards in Cuba to attempt pronunciamento the soldiers and civilians alike having accepted the disaster and it's consequences with a dreary fatalistic calm, the island is fast drifting into a condition of anar- chy. Insurgent bands are enjoying im- munity in the commission of outrages and plundering, and this is especially true in the western provinces where the insurgents bitterly complain that they have been ignored and abandoned by the United States and being left utter ly destitute can only save themselves from starvation by rapine. Without food, medicine and clothing they are dying like flies and unfortunately it is the best elements among the insur- gents that are suffering most severely. The Times, in an editorial. article, draws attention to these difficulties facing the Washington government and to the advisability that the peace con- ference be not unduly protracted.
 The correspondent relates terrible stories of anarchy and says the Ameri- can government is apparently attempt ing to suppress the truth. As an in- stance he gives the following story, which he declares was suppressed by the censor at Key West: "A band of insurgents attacked recently the Provi- dencia sugar plantation near Guinez, one of the richest in Cuba. The guer- fila force which the proprietor main- tained to defend his property until the arrival of the Spanish troops was oblig- ed to surrender because the Spanish troops now do nothing to suppress law nessness. The insurgents invaded the enclosure, where they found lot of re- concentrados. They stripped the wo- men naked and placing them in line, fired from behind them at the gueriIlas, thus making it impossible for the de- lenders of the plantation to defend the fire The correspondent declares that the majority of the white population have left Cuba.

DIs.4 STEERS ON GREAT LAKES.
Dense Smoke and Fog Cause Many
 Vessels to Strand.

Chicago, Sept. 19.-The dense smoke coupled with fog, which now hangs over the upper lakes, is bringing a long list of disasters to vessels and marine underwriters. The smoke is accompa- nied by a northwest gale, on both Lake Michigan and Lake Superior. The cause of the smoke seems to be un- known, as no forest fires have been reported anywhere near the upper lakes, and it is believed that the smoke has come from fogs in the far north west. Up to late hour this afternoon the strandings reported were: Steam- CT Lewiston, Manitowac to Buffalo, with grain, ashore near Scott's Point, Lake Michigan; steamer E. c. Pope, bound from Duluth to Buffalo, with grain, ashore at Vermillion Point near station No. 9, Lake Superior; steamer Colorado, Duluth to Port Huron, with flour ashore on Eagle river reef; schooner Senator, coal laden for Har- bor Springs, ashore on Skillagalee reef; tug Salvor ashore on Skillagalee reef.
