Sneaking Toward Annexation.

From the Louisville Dispatch.
II our imperialists undertake to annex
Cuba or to hold il and govern ii, we will
have to whip the Cubans after We get
through with the Spanish. and we will
find, as the Spaniards did. that govern
ing Cuba is a troublesome and expensive
job. Already the imperialist press is en-
gagged in preparing the public mind for
annexation. Ii is busily employed in dis
crediting the Cubans and in charging that
they are incapable of governing themselvs.

pearance of being all edited by the same
man.

SITUATION IN MANILA.
Attitude of the Insurgent Troops Has
 Become MenaCing,

Manila, Oct 23.-The commission of Spaniards sent here recently by Gen. eral Rios, Spain's chief representative in the Philippines and governor gener- al of the southern portions of the arch ipelago, arranged a temporary commer- cial convention. Accordingly inter-is- land traffic was resumed but it is now again interrupted, this time by orders from General Rios. The steamer San Nicholas, which left Manila yesterday flying the American flag, was com pelled to return by a Spanish gunboat, whose commander offered as plea for his action that the crew consisted of Filipinos, who might smuggle contra band articles. The San Nicholas, after reporting her experience, sailed again, followed by the United States gunboat McCulloch.
 The insurgents entered Manila yes- terday flying their flag, but it was promptly hauled down by the Ameri- cans. The attitude of the insurgent troops has become very menacins. Their supplies are growing very scarce and they are becoming desper- ate. Their leaders assure the troops who have had no pay for months, that they will soon capture Manila. The F'ilippino newspapers insist upon ab- solute independence and denounce an- nexation to the United States or ah American protectorate with equal en- ergy. The American authorities, naval and military are taking precautionary measures, although no immediate trouble is anticipated.

pH11ADE1PHIA PEACE JUBI1EE.
Begun Yesterday by Special Services in
 the Churches.

Philadelphia, Oct. 23.-The peace jubilee was begun to-day with special services of prayer and thanksgiving in all the churches in the city.

In time it will occupy three full days, counting the actual opening day Tuesday. It will embrace an imposing greeting to the nations navy, as represented by the ships of no other navy afloat ever fought and won. A dgnified and comprehensive display of our civic virtues as exempli- fled by procession showing the coun- try's progress in commerce and art; and great military parade of the men whose endurance and prowess made possible the festival.

Baron de Gourcel after a long confer" ence with M. Delcasse, left Paris for London yesterday. According to the Temps he had an important converse tion with Lord Salisbury before he left London and will have another on re- turning here.
 Another dispatch from Paris says 1t is rumored there that he is bringing to London definite proposals for the eVac- uation of Fashoda on condition that France be granted a Nile outlet on the river Bahr-el- -Gaza, one of the tribu- taries of the Nile, entering it about llO miles southwest of Fashoda at Nick rem-e -el-Bohur. Most of the special dis patches to the London morning papers say that yesterday Sunday the feel ing in Paris was decidedly more hope full, owing to the widespread idea, which the yellow book confirms, that Lord Salisbury had not fiatly refused to entertain Baron de Courcels sugges- tion of compensation for the evacuation of Fashoda.
 M. Leckroy the minister of marine explains that the movement of troops to Cherbourg is merely one Of relief forces for Crete and the colonies.

PLAGUE SITUATION IN VIENNA.
Dr. Muller Succumbs but Three Nurses
 Are Improved.

Vienna, Oct. 29-Dr. Muller, who at- tended Herr Barisch, the surgical as- sistant at Professor Nothnagles bac- terio1ogical establishment, who died on Tuesday from Bubonic plague, died this morning. The three nurses who had developed symptoms of the disease are somewhat improved to-day. All the animals at the Nothnagle establishment which had been made the subjects of experiment with the plague bacillus were killed to-day and cremated.
 Dr. Muller had many English pupils. He owes his death to his fearless de- votion to Herr Barisch. Not only did he assiduously attend and examine him noting down careful description of the case from hour to hour, but he even scraped the walls of the sick room in order to prove the presence of bacil- Ii, utterly regardless of the danger to himself When he was attacked he wrote down a complete diagnosis of his own condition, analysing the changes from hour to hour and pasting them on the window, until pain and fever com- pelled him to stop.

TITO D0UBLE TRAGEDIES.
Jealous Husbands Kill Their Wives and
 Then Themselves.

New York, Oct 2S,-Two jealous husbands killed their wives and them selves killed their wives and them selves in Jersey City to-day. Henry Jones, colored, shot his wife to death and then sent bullet into his brain at No. 143 Van Horn street. The police had barely completed their investiga- tion and sent the bodies to the morgue when five shots were heard in the flat house at 377 Montgomery street, oppos site St. Bridget's church as the people were assembling to worship. Garrett French, a Pennsylvania railroad loco- motive engineer, had mortally wounded his wife and had wounded himself so badly that he died within a few min utes Jones was a Pullman car porter forty-eight years of age. He returned from a two weeks trip down south yesterday. Not finding his wife at home he was very much enraged, and after she returned home at midnight the couple quarrelled throughout the night. This morning he shot her twice in the breast. His son Clarence at tempted to prevent him from shooting her the third time and was himself shot at but not struck, Then Jones shot his Wife again in the neck. He trailed through the blood to another room and sent bullet through his right tenn pie.
 Garrett French was thirty-fv years of age, the son of Tip French, who had also been a locomotive engineer, but who now lives in old age retirement. French was suspended recently. He began to drink and abuse his wife. Yesterday he took an old revolver out of pawn and told one of his children that he intended to kill his wife. Last night he slept with the pistol under his pillow and this morning the little boy told his mother what his father had said. Mrs. French went to the bed and securing the pistofran to the door. Her husband followed and wrenching the weapon from her held it close to her head and fired three times. Each bull let entered her skull. The infuriated man let her fall and raised the pistol to his own head and fired. The bullet struck and glanced along the skull. French lowered the pistol and sent a bullet through his heart. French died instantly. His wife lived for several hours.

IN AN AWFUL PLIGHT.
Vessel Off Halifax Going to Pieces-Aid
 Impossible.

Halifax, N. S., Oct 23.-Tugs which have been endeavoring for hours to reach large square-rigged vessel ashore on Thrum Gap shoals, eight miles from here, returned tonight, having abandoned the effort to save the crew of the unknown craft The vessel was discovered on the rocks at daylight this morning, having gone ashore doubtless in the heavy south westerly gale which commenced last night and lasting for nearly twelve hours, accompanied by violent rain and unusually heavy sea. Only stumps of masts are visible from the signal station and five men have been counted on the deck of the stranded vessel. At first the Unfortunate craft was thought to be French banquentine, as one was due here.
 During the morning the crew could be seen making signals. but the blind ing spray of sea breaking over the hull prevented them being understood. Life boats from the Devils Island station were early on the scene, but could not get within half-mile of the shoals The sea was breaking long distance outside. The noise of the surf rolling on shore was terrific. This afternoon the tugboats got near enough for MT. Crosby, Halifax agent of the British brigantine Irma, which was due from Turks Island with salt, to venture the opinion that this vessel was the Irma As only five men were seen on the vessel and the crew of the Irma num- bered nine it is feared four have been lost. The dismasted hull has been lifted by the force of the sea upon the crown of the reef. The sea is still high and further efforts to rescue the crew have had to be abandoned. If the sea goes down tonight the tugs will re- turn to the scene or otherwise nothing can be done before morning. It is fear ed the vessel cannot hold together much longer and much anxiety exists. The Irma is vessel of 232 tons, own- in Liverpool, N. S., and commanded by Captain Taylor of this city.

FIRE ON STATE STREET,
In Q Candy Store Between Court and
 Grand.

An alarm of fire was rung about 1:30 this morning from box PA, at the cor ner of State and Court streets, for fire at No. 463 State street, known as the "Kandy Kitchen" The blaze was dis covered by Patrolman Sessler, who pulled the box. It originated in the rear of the cellar, from what cause is unknown. It was reported that there was an explosion, but Patrolman Sess- Ter says that this is not true The candy store is owned by Alexander Conkos, a Greek, and he, with one of his workmen, was sleeping in a rear room on the first floor directly over where the fire was, and had the two men not been awakened by Patrolman Sessler they would probably have been suffocated, as the room was full of smoke. In the cellar were stored a quantity of flour and sugar and other materials used in the candy manufac- ture It is estimated that the loss to the stock of the store will be about $4O0, while the damage to the building will be about $150. The stock of the store was insured for $500.

Electric Tower Blown Down.

Danbury, Oct. 23-The large iron electric light tower on White street, near the White street railroad station, was blown over by the wind shortly before noon to-day, but fortunately, apart from the wrecking of the tower and damage to wires, there was no oth- CT loss. The tower was 125 feet high and cost about $500. The trimmer had just completed his work on the four lamps located on the tower and had descended to the ground, when the huge structure was seen to sway and there was great excitement for a few mo- ments by the people hurrying from the threatened danger.
