Washington. Nov. Reports of
Z soin6Whet disquieting nature have
been received from General Otis, in
command ct Manila. He says that
the province Of Iloilo, in the Island of
PaDpy, which i technically occupied
by the 6paniards, was surrounded by
the insurgents and that fears are en-
tertained that the Spanish popula-
ton and garrison will be massacred.
Tho capital Of the province Ii 355
miles from Manila, but this and the
other islands, with the exception of
Manila and its adjacent country, is
not under the control of the Ameri-
cans. Heretofore the United States
officers have tried to prevent disturb
ances between the insurgents and
Spaniards throughago good offices and
counsel. The indications are, how
ever, that the present situation in
lloilo cannot be controlled by the
United States army at Manila or the
insurgent leaders there, and if seri-
Gus consequences are averted some
other method will have to be adopted.
The troops under General Otis are
not available for any. such duty, and
under the terms ot,the protoool,pend-
ing peace negotiations, it is not de-
eirable to send force from the army
to The Island of Pansy. There is no
intention at present, OF sending addi-
.tional troops to General Otis, but the
situation is such as to strengthen the
determination of the administration
not to reduce The available force un-
der his command.

The death of Antoine Delone. who was
killed at the Colorado smelter Saturday
evening. was investigated at an inquest
held last evening by Coroner Tremblay
at Richards undertaking rooms. and
was declared by the jury to have been
due to the negligence of the deceased.
A number of Delone's fellow workmen
were examined on the witness stand,
but no on was found who saw the ac-
cident, and the only conclusion that
could he reached was a theoretical one.
as the evidence was all of a h~ypotheti-
cal nature. 1t appeared from the tes-
timony that the deceased was employed
at wheeling charges. and 1t was a part
of his work to place the ore on an ele-

He and his wife had by this time

as he saw the three fellows coming he
stopped and with a determined air put

Frank Tanhaussr Fell From the Third
story Ia the Ground Floor.
The first accident of any kin that
has happened during the process of the
construction of the new Hennessy
building, at the corner of Main and
Granite, occurred yesterday. when
Tanhauser received painful injuries by
falling from the third story to the
ground floor. Tanhauser was EN-
ployed as a cage tende on the third
floor, where the brick work Is now in
progress. 1t was his duty to remove
the loaded wheelbarrows containing
brick and mortar from the elevator
when hoisted and place the empties on
to be lowered. At the time of the acct
lent he was removing a loaded wheel
barrow and, forgetting the landing was
narrow. backed of and fell. He struck
on some tie rods at the second floor,
breaking the fall. and landed on a
team of horses on the ground floor. The
horses were greatly, frightened, and it
was thought for a moment that Tan
hauser would be trampled to death. as
he lay underneath the animals. but he
was extricated and sent to Murray 4
Freund's hospital in the ambulance,
where IL was found on examination
that he had ~miraculously escaped with
only a broken wrist, a lacerated eye
and a few bruises. His condition is
not serious. and he will only be laid
up a few days. at least the doctors so
think from present indications. The
distance of the fall was 80 feet.
