ADJUSTMENTS.

The press agent of theatrical COM
panles is usually great genius or he
would not be able to hold his position.
Sometimes he is truthful fellow and
then again there Is no end to his pre-
varications. Newspaper critics are Mt the
mercy to great extent, unless they
have private wire over which to get
the desired Information. Marie Jansen
has received many complimentary no.
tees from the newspapers--partly be-
cause of her previous good reputation
as an operate star and partly for the
reason that her press representative
gives positive assurances of the sterl-
ing quality of her play The Nancy
Hanks. But this tumble of stun that is
being masqueraded under the Guise of
play or farce Is no more entitled to
either distinction than would be some
of the dino museum entertainments
that used to be given at the Lyoeum
here when 1t was known ns Wonder

heretofore good name as a worthy
theatrical star, to fill the theaters at

GEN. MILES'S LANDING
Was a Surprise at Washington.

WASHINGToN, July 27.-Although
the present members of the war admin
istration in Washington knew nothing
of the intention of Gen. Miles to land
his first detachment of troops in Guau-
lea bay, there is conclusive evidence
that the commanding general of the
army decided before he left Guantana-
mo, perhaps before he left Washing
ton, to land at that point.
Gen. Miles had been in consultation
with General Mattel and other Porto
Ricau insurgent leaders for some time
and became convinced that the wisest
move was to take possession of Ponce
first. 1t was also decided that the in-
vading force ought to be landed at
three points, one of which should be
Fsjardo, and he advised a plan
cooperation between the several de-
tachments of the army.
Various opinions among officials
have developed as sequence to the
surprise occasioned by Miles's m Message.
The general feeling however is that
the commanding general acted wisely.
No one is able to say that Miles ex-
ceeded the official general Instructions
of the war department.

previous statement of the condition of

apprehension. The ex-chancellor has
been absolutely without sleep for three
nights. and is unable to drink or eat.
Dropsy is rapidly creeping up from

near.
A dispatch from Friederichsruhe,
P.M.ssys DR.. Schweninger, Bismark's
chief physician, positively refuses to
make statement as to the princes

ebbing from him. His feet are much
swollen, and he was unable to eat any
thing this morning. The members Of

Capt. LleWellyn's Letter.
Albuquerque Citizen.

Albuquerque Citizen.
Gov .Otero on Thursday last received
letter from Capt. w. II. 81. Level
lyn, of Troop G., First United States
volunteer cavalry. The letter is not
dated, but was evidently written after
the battle of Quasins, which occurred
June "a, and just before the desperate
charge made up San Juan heights on
July 2. 1t is as follows:
In Camp at Hicacas, Cuba -four miles
east, and in plain sight OF Santiago de
Cuba.-As l wrote you on the .24th of
June we had az engagement with the
Spaniards, and the First United States
tes volunteer cavalry and the Tenth
Uuited States regular cavalry won the
fight and ran the beggars out of their
strongly fortified position. l tell you
it WAS hot time. Hafner, from Gallup,
was the only New Mexico boy killed.
The others In my troop who were shot
were from other states. Our wounded
are doing well and are all back at Ju-
ragua.
This is beautiful mountain coun-
try: fine as silk, and the scenery is
simply grand.
All the New Mexico boys are we'll
and anxious to give the fellows an
other whirl. We feel pretty big, since
16 troops OF General Young's brigade,
numbering 900 men, ran off 1900
Spaniards from their chosen and
strongly fortified positions and out of
ambush.
Please tell the folks to send the boys
some smoking tobacco am one of
the boys. 1 have Q knife that was car
ried by Reid, and which was shot while
in his pocket, and some other relics of
the fight for you, which should be
placed in the Historical society's
rooms.
Our brigade is the cream of the ar
my. The 10th cavalry fought like de-
wills, and we all feeltae fine as fiddlers.
Our troubles will be over soon. Will
be killed, wounded or safe in Santiago
before this reaches you. The Span
iartls say.w are American devils: that
we violate the rules of warfare. When
they fire volley after volley at us, in
stead of retreating as we ought, our
trumpeters sound the charge.
holland, cowboy from Deming, who
was one of my Orderlies in the fight and
who was shot while standing at my
side, has SO far recovered from his
wound as to desert the hospital and re-
turn to the troop. He saw q boot stick

KILLING AT SANTA RITA.
Juan BisCarra Shot And Killed BY
A. A. Hamilton.

News has reached Deming of a kill
ing at Santa Rita Monday evening in
which Juan Biscarra, formerly resi-
dent of this town, was shot and killed
by A. A. Hamilton.
The trouble occurred in the saloon
owned by Hamilton. Biscarra was
drunk and had become involved in q
quarrel with man named Jack Clark.
Biscarra had drawn a knife and was
following Clark Ito the saloon, where
Clark had gone for the purpose of Sc
curing his sixshooter In order that he
might defend himself if necessary.
Clark was behind the bar in the act of
picking up his gun, and Biscarra was
about the middle of the floor, when
Hamilton, who was standing by, fred
at and almost instantly killed the Mex
ican. At least, this is the story of the
trouble as told by persons who claim to
know the facts. The bullet struck Bis
cara near the heart.
Hamilton WAS given preliminary
hearing the same evening before JUS
tice of the Peace Con. McCarty and
was discharged upon the ground that
the killing was justifisble.
Biscarra was the Mexican who was
supposed to be implicated in the work
of the Bob Lewis gang of border
thieves some months ago, and is quite
we'll known in Deming.-Deming
Headlight.

On The War Path.

An individual Familiarity known as
''Frenchie'' started in this morning to
disfgure the buildings and inhabitants
of Utah street, and was succeeding ad-
mirably when Officer Rogers happened
along and placed him under arrest.
He fought the officer viciously and not
until the Jail was reached did he stop
fighting. .Frenchie" is an old offend
er and is An all-around would-be bad
man. He owns q horse and sad
die, and sixshoOter as long as an ordi-
nary broom handle. He delights to
float around in COW boy style and
make everybody believe he ls q real
bad man. March Is last he was assessed
$3.50 for fiourishinE sixshooter.
Fifty dollars of this amount was remit
ted and he paid 800 and was released.
On July 18th last he paid $40 for the
same offense, and there no doubt ex-
pressed but that he had q deadly
weapon on him this morning. until he
be heard that the officer was coming.
He will have hearing before Record
er Patterson this evening when he
will in all probability receive the dose
of law which he justly deserves.

A Mexican Injured.

A Mexican labOrer named Jose
Uranga was pretty badly hurt today
from having heavy adobe wall fall in
on him.
He was at work mixing mud mortar
for the building of the wall in the rear
of the entrance of the old Y. M. c. A.
building where the new livery stable
is to be, under the management of
LOngwell & Ballinger.
The wall which fell on the man was
fully ten feet high and as he was
STOPPING over when it fell it buried
him nearly and the others on the same
work had to dig him out. The fellow
was nearly unconscious and he was
bleeding freely at the nose. His left
leg is broken at the thigh and it is
thought that he may be internally in
jured. DR.. Thompson was Immediate
ly called andibegan at once to make ar
rangements to take him up to Hotel
Dieu. He was seen later and at last
reports he was resting easily.

Campers Returned.

Among the arrivals on the White
Oaks last night were Judge Leigh
Clark and family, who have for the
last two weeks been camping out in the
heart OF the SacramentOs.
In talking to the judge about his
trip he said" 1t was just delightful out
there. The atmosphere is fine and the
only trouble was that it rained more
than we liked, but then we had An ex-
cellent time and if half of the people of
Ell Psso knew how good it was to be up
there where it is cool they would GER
tainly go there for an outing instead of
going off some where else.
The Judge said that one doesn't need
ice for the water from the springs in
Silver canon as the water is as colo IS
any one could want 1t. ''There is all
the hunting there that one wants. The
squirrels are very plentiful and while
they are smaller than those we
used to shoot in the eastern part of the
| state, still you can kill as
many OF them as you want and then if
anything these smaller ones have q
sweeter taste than those in the east.
There are all the doves there that one

| also lots of turkey and deer up there
but l didn't kill any of either.p

HAS MANILA FALLEN?
The Information Comes From Ma
drid.

vi
CHICAGO, July 27.-A special cable
to the Inter-Ocean from Madrid says
Information has been received here to
the effect that Augusti has surrender
ed Manila to the American forces COM
manded by Dewey, Anderson, and
Greene. The government believes
that the town vas bombarded. by the
American warships and that it was
concurrently attacked on the land side
by II, 1000 Americans and 10000 insur-
gents. Augusti has about 10000 Eu-
ropean soldiers. sailors, and marines.
The Spanish garrison is short of am
munition, and food aud water are both
very scarce. 1t is believed that rather
than yield to the insurgents the cao-
tain general decided to give up the
city to the Anne ericars.
WASHINGTON, July 27.-News of the
surrender of Manila is momentarily
expected by the authorities at Wash
iugton, who make no secret of the fact
that an understanding has for some
time existed betweens Dewey and Au-
Ruetl, 6uu IudG opoiu iOTCSS Will
initiate the example of those of Toral
at Santiago the instant the Americans
express readiness to assume respon-
sibility for the government of the city,
and are prepared to furnish ample pro-
lection to all its property. The time
has not arrived according to the under
standing of officials here. The Span
iards will gladly welcome any relief
from the critical condition from which
they now suffer. Gen. Merritt has ar
rived by this time, according to the
most conservative estimates, aud is now
in control.
It is officially minated that the die
tatorship proclaimed by ,Aguinaldo
will not be recognized, but on the con-
trary Anderson will treat the insur-
gent forces at Manila just as Shafter
did those of Garcia at Santiago. They
will not be permitted to enter the city
under any circumstances.

false pretenses at Lordsburg, N. M,

The defendant contends that it was a
gambling debt that he collected and
that the law cannot return him to New
Mexico for that offense. The case will
in all probability be concluded this
