AMERICAN CONSULATE ATTACKED
Few Nights Before Consul Hyatt Left
 Santiago De Cuba.

Santiago De Cuba.
 Kingston, Jamaica, April 11.--It be- came known to-day that few nights before Pulaski F. Hyatt, the United States consul at Santiago de Cuba, left that port, under instructions, for Port Antonio, Jamaica, a mob of Spaniards made demonstration against the con- sulate and threw tomatoes, eggs and stones at the stars and stripes floating over the consulate. The crowd which took part in this demonstration had just left a threater where perform ance had taken place for the purpose of raising funds to increase the strength of the Spanish navy. The Spaniards surrounded the consulate, shouting, Death to Americans" Long live Spain" etc, and on so do- ing pelted the flag, as already describ- ed. The mob was eventually dispers- ed by the police. It also developed to- day that Dr. Caminero of the United States marine hospital at Santiago de Cuba was visited by the local Spanish committee, who asked him to buy tick cts for the benefit to the Spanish navy. The doctor in forcible if not very po- lite language told the committee to Ego to ---"
 The instructions from Washington through Consul Drent for the with drawal of the United States consul at Cienfugos and Santiago de Cuba were translated here by the Jamaican au- thorities into the British government cipher and were thts sent to the Brit ish consuls at Cienfugos and Santiago de Cuba, who conveyed the meaning of the messages to the United States consuls MT. Hyatt at Santiago de Cuba doubted the authority of Consul Drent in the matter and held the steamer Brookline for nine hours so as to be able to cable to Washington on the subject In reply he received by cable the word, "Go," and Mir. Fly att obeyed his instructions.
 MT. Hyatt left the United States con- sulate at Santiago de Cuba full of pro- visions intended for the reconcentrados and the British consul at that port took charge of the relief work. At San tiago de Cuba last week while Senor Francisco Portuondo, prominent Cu- ban, read an account published in a New York newspaper of Colgate Hoyt's S anti-Spanish speech at the banquet of the Sons of the American Revolution, Jose Ferr, manager of the Spanish American Mining company, in which MT. Hoyt is interested, led a crowd with band, shouting Death of Me- Kinley,'' Death to the Yankees" /" Twelve Americans engaged in the iron business at Santiago de Cuba intend to leave by the steamer Baltimore, which is due there to-day.

ing of thousands of children in the grounds in the rear of the executive mansion. The Marine band furnished music for the youngsters.
 The effect of the message down town was on the whole quieting. Cabinet officers, of course, expressed their com plete and most hearty approval of the message. This view was reflected throughout administration circles.
 The Spanish minister, Senor Polo, re- mained at the legation during the day, sending and receiving many dispatches and conferripg with his advisers. He cabled the entire presidents message to Madrid except only the historical references to General Grants message, Texas, etc. The minister said he must decline to make the slightest public al- fusion to the presidents message, as any remark from him would be incon- sistent with his position. It is known, however, that Senor Polo is keenly sen sitive to the language of the message. What it's effect will be upon his service here is not known, for no word has yet come as to the effect of the message upon the authorities at Madrid. Up to tonight Senor Polo had received no in- structions to withdraw, nor was there any intimation of such instructions.
 The war and navy departments con- tinued their active preparations to-day. While eventualities are being prepared for the sentiment in army and navy circles is that war is not so imminent as it seemed to be a few days ago. It can be stated on authority that no consideration has yet been given to the withdrawal of the United States fleet at Key West, as the administration holds that the situation has undergone no change which makes this with drawal advisable.

 Madrid, April HOBO D. m.-Nu- merous groups in the Buerata del Sol and in front of the office of the minis ter of the interior this evening have raised the cry, Viva Espana." The gendarmes and police scattered them, but the groups quickly reformed sev- eral times until finally the gendarmes charged the crowd. Many were in- jured or arrested. Senor Aguilera, the civil governor, called out the civil guard to clear the street, but at this hour several bodies are parading through the streets in the center of the city.

Bright. faced, happy, rollicking, playful
babies, thousands of them all over the
broad land, have in their bodies the seeds
of serious diseases, and while they laugh
and play are facing death. The mother, il,

sponsible for this sad state of affairs. Where
the mother, during the anxious period, suf.

1t has been reported that a big syndi-

IL from the lips of man who has

thoroughly acquainted with most of the

the management of the main office of the

bnat some time might elapse before the
syndicate would have chance to operate
tne proposition was not taken up. 1t is
also learned that many individuals are

AN OBJECT LESSON.

Ihere comes time. in the history of in
alv1duals and business firms as we'll as ma.
tions when they have to show to the world
the stuff they are made Of. The magnif-
cent uprising of all parties and sections at
the call of President Mckinley in defence
OF the flag, at this time, is splendid il.
lustration of the power of this country
and an Impressive object lesson to all the
world. So at this time, that sterling
corporation, the Standard Clothing com.
pany, whose large store is at 255 Middle
street, anG their manufacturing and
wholesale room at 395 Washington street
Boston, are giving the people most inl-
pressive object lesson on their ability to
SO minimize the cost of production by
the combination of large interests and
resources as to be able to supply the con-
sumner direct from the mandatory at an
enormous saving in cost.
The Standard Clothing company, wide
" known as leading in the production of
hne artistic wearing apparel, are just now
winning golden opinions from all classes
by showing what $40 will do, and tho
writer of this was surprised and delighted
at the narvalously stylish suits and over
coats offered for tLis moderate.shtn. Of
course it is only large transaetions from
hrst hands that make such low prices and
great values possible, and we earnestly
advise all who are interested in artistic
wearing apparel for men to go to the
SGandard and see for themselves what $40
will do.
