A RAIN OF IRON HAIL.
Three of Admiral sampson's Ships Thr'
300 Shells Into the Forts at Matanzas

Three of Admiral SIMPSONS Ships Throw
800 Shells Into the Forts at Matanzas.
Key West, April 2S.-The New York,
Puritan and Cincinnati bombarded the
forts at Matanzas Wednesday after
noon. The engagement began at 1851
and closed at lis. There were no
casualties on the American side. Great
damage is known to have been done
to Matanzas and it is believed there
was loss of life.
The object of the attack was to pre-
vent the completion of the earthworks
at Punta Gorda. A battery on the
eastward arm of the bay opened fire
on the flagship and this was also
shelled. About II eight-inch shells
were fired from the eastern forts, but
all fell short. Five or six light shells
were fred from the half completed
battery. Two of these whizzed over
the New York and one fell short. The
ships left the bay for the open sea, the
object of discovering the whereabouts
of the batteries having been accom-
plished.
In the neighborhood of 300 shots
were put on land from the three ships
at range of from 1000 to 1000 yards.
The Spanish earthworks and battery
were plowed up by the shells. All the
ships engaged showed excellent marks
manship and when they were firing at
the shortest range nearly every shell
| took effect.

Washington, April 9O.-Gen. Miles
and his assistants were in conference
yesterday respecting military opera
tions that are to be undertaken in the
occupation of Cuba. They all main
tain the strictest reticence concerning
the result of these deliberations. The
Cuban representatives in Washington
were at Gen. Miles headquarters and
were consulted in regard to various
steps which would arise in connection
with the cooperation of United States
troops with the insurgent forces in
Cuba.
Chickamauga National Park, Ga,
April 9O.-There was hustling among
the artillerymen at Chickamauga Park
yesterday. The eight batteries in
camp were ordered at once to Tampa
and the entire day was taken up in
getting the men, horses and guns
aboard the cars. Trains bearing these
men and their equipments have been
given the right of way and it is eX-
pected they will arrive at Tampa this
morning.
New Orleans, April 3O.-The First
regiment left here last night for Tam
pa, waiting over for Gen. Shafter's
staff, who were also ordered to meet
the commander in Florida. The i'm
preston among army men is that the
first army corps sent into Cuba will be
for the purpose of cooperating with
the insurgents.
Tampa, Fla, May at is reported
that dispatch has been received here

spaiu's War Minister Declares that the En-
gagement at Matanzas Resulted in
Great Victory for Spanish Arms.
Madrid, April 3O.-The minister of
war, Gen. Correa, in the chamber of
deputies yesterday, replying to in
quiries for particulars in regard to the
bombardment of the forts at Matanzas,
said the government had decided to
publish 'all the news received, good or
bad"
Continuing, Gen. Correa told the
deputies that the United States squad
ron fired 60 projectiles, and that the
only victim was mule, remark
which aroused laughter among the
Spaniards.
The general next informed the house
that the American warships were in
iured by the fire of the Spanish bat
teries. and he asserted that the insur-
gents were acting in conjunction with
the United States forces, as they ad-
vanced in the direction of Matanzas
while the bombardment was proceed
ing.
''But," added the minister for war,
'they were completely routed" In
conclusion Gen. Correa remarked: at
was a glorious day for the Spanish
arms"
Gen. Weyler in the senate yesterday
urged the government to take the Of
fensive against America. He justified
his administration in Cuba. He de-
clared that had he been allowed SIX
months longer he would have entirely
crushed the insurrection and would
have realized the promise he made !tc
Senior Canovas del Castillo that by
April, 1898, he would be in position
to offer him $4,000 veterans to attack
the United States.

torpedo boat destroyers Pluton, Terror

Washington, April 3O.-The navy de
partment received news Friday of the
sailing from st. Vincent, Cape Verde

the naval officers here feel confident
that the Spanish feet will next appear
at the Canary islands, about half way
between Cape Verde and Spain. Al
the Canaries are Spanish islands anC
possess some strong Notifications, i
may be that the fleet will remain ther,

New York, April 3O.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says
Hostilities have not as yet changed
last weeks conditions There is much
postponement of orders by men who dc
not know what they are waiting for
and much restriction of loans by banks
that are abundantly strong. All this
checks new business, and yet the vol
ume of transactions through clearing
houses is larger than in the same week
of 1892. This increase would be much
larger but for speculative stagnatior
here. Railroads are doing a great

Powder Mills Near Dover, N. j.,
Explode.
Ten Buildings Demolished and Four Work.
men Badly Injured. Shock of the Ex-
plosions was Felt Within a Radius
of Twenty MIles-The Plant
Mass of Ruins.

Easton, Pa, April 29.-The town Of
Dover, in Morris county, N. j., and the
country within radius Of 20 miles was
startled Thursday afternoon by series
Of terrific explosions. The explosions
occurred in the Atlantic Powder Co. S
works and the plant is now mass of
ruins. Six workmen were killed and
four others were seriously injured,
some probably fatally. The dead are
Alfred Rarick, William Stumpf, Casper
Ray, David Scheer, William Haycock
and Elias Abers. All the killed were
married and leave families.
The works were situated IN an iso-
lated spot seven miles out in rough
country from Dover. There were ten
buildings in the group and all have
been destroyed. The first explosion
occurred in one of the packing houses,
caused, it is thought, by spark from
the pipe of careless smoker. The con-
cussion set off the explosives in anoth-
er packing house near by. Debris and
burning timbers of the wrecked build,
ings were carried high into the air and
fell in a shower over the remaining
buildings setting fire to the main fac
tory and the other five packing houses
and the two she'll houses. In briet
time the explosives in these buildings
were set off and left death and destruc
tion in their wake.
The works have been running night
and day turning out rush orders fol
the government and large amount o.
ammunition ready for shipment was
stored in the packing houses. This
with all other explosives was com
pletely destroyed. The scene present
ed at the place was terrible. People
who felt the shocks and saw the flames
of the burning structures fiocked t.
the place from miles around, but coul(
render no aid to the injured. Th'
people were terrified and held back il
constant fear of other explosions.

Reicoted the Conference Report.

Washington, May 2.-Saturday's ses-
sion of the house was devoted chiefly to
consideration of the conference report
upon the naval appropriation bill. The
report was rejected after three hours
of debate, and a further conference
will follow. The ground upon which
the fight against the report was made
was found in the senate amendment to
compensate naval officers for govern
ment use of their inventions, and au-
thorizing them to have their claims for
such compensation adjudicated by the
court of claims.
