DAVENP0RT'S SUDDEN DEATH.
THE FAMOUS ACTRESS DIES SUD-
DENLY AT DUXBURY.

She Had Been Sick Throughout the
Summer, But Not Until a Few Days
Ago Was Her Condition Serious.
She Then Began Gradually Sinking
Until Her Death Last Night From
the Enlargement of the Hcnrt-Hcr
Husband, Melbourne Mcdowell, at
Her Bedside when She died.
Duxbury, Mass, Sept. 26.-Fanny Dav-
export (Ndrs. Melbourne McDowelD died at
her summer home at 10:30 o'clock tonight
of enlargement of the heart
Miss Davenport had never fully recov-
cred from her severe illness early in the
summer, but up to a week ago 1t was
thought she would in time enjoy good
health again. A few days ago, however, a
change was noted. Since then, she has
been gradually sinking and to-day it was
announced that death was only a question
of a few hours. Her three sisters had al
ready been notified and with her husband
already at her bedside, she peacefully
passed away
Her brother-in-law, William Seymour,
was notified yesterday of her condition,
and is on his way here. He will take
charge of the funeral arrangements, the
nature of which will not be made known
until he arrives.
Miss Davenport was the daughter of Ed
ward Davenport, the famous American
actor, and Fanny Elizabeth Vining Dav-
enport, the equally famous American act
ress, and was born in London April 10,

Howard Athenium, in Boston, when Il
years of age. Her first adult part was
that of Mrs. Midway, in "Still Waters
Run Deep"
AS Airline. in the ''Black' Crook" she
made her debut as a soubrette, and later
joined Mrs John Drews company at
Philadelphia. She remained there but a
short time, and then joined Augustin
Daly's Fifth Avenue Theater Company in
New York. She played leading parts for
nearly ten years, from 1869 to 1879. She
made her first appearance as a star in
"Pique," and later produced a number of
Shakespearean and old English comedies.

some of the modern dramas of Dumas,

productions she displayed her wonderful
skill as a stage manager

sition on THE American stage. She was one
of the foremost of the female stars, while
she held the high rank as a producer of
plays, and in this latter work she achiev-
ed a great success. Her Sardou plays
were put on the stage with lavish scenery
and costumes, and she was fortunate in
finding heroine parts specially adapted to
her style of impersonations.

first husband was Edward Pierce, a young
stock actor, whom she engaged as the
leading juvenile man in her company in
the season of 1S77-'7S Late in the season

Jackson, Miss, Sept. 26.-The yellow fe-

SICKNESS AT SANTIAGO.
White Troops Would suffer IL Sent
There Now.


Washington, Sept 26.-The daily reports
that come to the department from Santi-
ago make it apparent that even among
the immune regiments, made up as some
of them are of negroes, supposed to be
almost exempt from attacks of climatic
fevers, much sickness prevails, and 1t Is
only a fair assumption that the ordinary
troops would suffer more were they now
sent into Cuba. Therefore. while the
American and Spanish commissioners at
Havana are still seeking to reach an
agreement as to the time 10 be allowed
for evacuating the island, il may be said
that the President expects that the re-
suit win be a compromise between the
dates mentioned on each side, and the
movement will begin toward the latter
part of October, to be concluded soon aft
er New Year. This will accord very well
with the plans of the war department,
as 1t will enable it to avoid sending to
Cuba any considerable number of soldiers
until the healthy season is well under way.
II Is the present purpose TO make the re-
placement of the Spanish forces In detail,
not sending over any large expedition, but
establishing a garrison at one point after
another. beginning probably with the
Western end Of the island The authori-
ties have reached the conclusion, in view
of the spirit shown by the Cubans, as
reported TO It, that 1t will not be neces-
sary to have nearly so large a force TO
garrison the island as was at first antici-
pated and 1t is thought now that not more
than 25,O00 men will be required.

REPORT LACKS CONFIRMATION
WAR DEPARTMENT HAS HEARD OF
NO FEVER IN RAYS COMMAND.

Last omciaI Report Received II Week

for Statement of the Health Con-
ditiOns in the Third Regiment of
Immunes-Rcport of Fever in Col.
Rays Command May Have Been
Confused with Reports From Por-
to Rico, where yellow Fever Is
Snid to Exist.
Washington, Sept 26-At the war de-
partment nothing official has been heard
from the troops at Santiago to indicate
that yellow fever is raging within the
ranks of the Third Regiment of United
States Volunteers, which is in Col. Rays
command
An unofficial report reached here to-day
that many of the soldiers at Santiago are
on the sick list and the report stated that
several cases of yellow fever prevailed in
Col. Rays regiment of immunes.
When Gen. Corbins attention was called
to the subject, he stated that when he last
heard from the troops at Santiago, and
that vicinity. they were getting along very
Well
There is some sickness among the troops,
but all things considered, the health OF
the troops was excellent when the last re-
port was received at the department a
week ago.
In consequence Of to-day's report, Gen.
Corbin telegraphed to Gen. Lawton re-
questing him to send at once a detailed
statement of the condition of the troops
under his command, and special mention
was made relative to Col. Rays regiment.
1t is said that the facilities for commun-
ication with Santiago are such that any
alarming outbreak of yellow fever would
have been reported to the department with
out delay.
In view of the fact that no such report
has been received 1t is taken for granted
that Col Rays regiment Is in good shape.
1t Is possible that the report of yellow
fever originated from an unofficial dispatch
received in New York yesterday from Por-
to Rico, in which it was stated that a
number of yellow fever cases have been
discovered among the american troops at
San Juan and Ponce, but the censorship
Is so strict there that no report of the in
creased number of cases has been per-
mitted to pass over the wires.
II is said that yellow fever Is prevailing
at Porto Rico to a somewhat alarming ex-
tent, although no official confirmation of
the report can be obtained at the war de-
partment. The report is said to have
reached New York in letter from one
of the soldiers. transmitted by one of the
crew of a vessel just arrived from Porto
Rico.

DISPOSITION OF PROPERTY.
Commander Eaton Given Additional
Duty at Havana.


Washington, Sept. 2e.-Commander
Eaton of the Resolute has been given ad-
diiional duty in connection with the Amer
leah military commission at Havana.
The exact need for this Is not known at
the navy department, the order having

COMMODORE WATSON AT BOSTON.
He Thinks Lieut.. Hobson VIII Raise

lie ThtnlSs Lteut. HObEOn VIII Raise
the CrIstobnl C0Ioh.
Boston, Sept. 26.-Commodore John c.
Watson arrived to-day from Guantanamo.
He spoke with much appreciation Of what
Lieut.. Hobson had done to save the Infan-
Ia Maria Teresa, but said that they had
quite a little difficulty with the wrecklag
company
While such work was necessarily a gam
bic, he thought that there was q good
chance that the Cristobal Colon could be
also raised, If the government gives per-
mission. Lieut.. Hobson had earned a
right to this chance by his success with
the Teresa.
The Chapman Wreclxing Company at
first reported that saving these ships was
impossible, but Lieut. Hobson had n long
talk with the head of the company, Capt.
Merritt and convinced him that the work
could be done and 1t was understood that
contract had been made for the raising
of the Colon, and that Lieut.. Hotson mad
air bags and pontoons ready for the work.
1t only remains for the government to de-
eide what amount of money can be finally
risked In the undertaking.
Commodore Watson explained that the
Colon lies almost exactly on her bean,
ends, with q large portion of her length
protruding over deep water. She has been
pronounced structurally intact, has re
ceived no fatal injuries to her hull, and 1t
is a feat of engineering rather than the
work Of a Wrecking master, to right her,
twist her around, and give her bu0yancy
enough SO that she can be hoated into a
place Of safety.
