Gen. sheridan. Gallan,ry to a Mi,Iin.r.

A writer in the Cincinnati CONNER
cial Tribune relates at the time of the
commune General Sheridan was In Paris
with his aide-de-camp. There was also
stopping at the same hotel a charming
American woman with whom he was
slightly acquainted. The prisoners had
been liberated and were rushing madly
through the streets. The order had also
been given that all windows and shut
ters must be kept closed. Shut in her
dark room and hearing the noisy rabble
below, the woman became greatly
alarmed.
There is but one thing for me to do"
h cried. ITO insure safety. l will put
myself under the care of the American
general"
She, therefore. sent her ard to Sheri-
dan, who at once called and offered his
services. He also advised that she
should join his party in the morning and
get away to London. Still she appeared
distressed. Finally she cried: 1T is
my onnet at Virot's. They were to
have been down to-day. How can / go
and leave them?"
The general srasped the situation and
offered his arm To escort her TO the
milliner's. Happily, il was not far of
Ever afterward he delighted to tell OF
his pleasure al seeing such a dainty
array of dainty headgear. he had never
been at a milliner's before.

goods in pawn after III o'clock p. m. Il
appears that Detective Murphy found
Cohen doing business after hours. At
the time he was making a loan on an
Overcoat To a man named walter
Smith. Detective Murphy suspected
that the coa had been stolen and took
Smith into custody till the matter
could be investigated n yesterday q
warrant for Smiths arrest was sworn
out and he was arrested. He was re-
leased on bonds. Smith is regarded as
of unsound mind. as he talks constant
ly of having discovered a new panacea
which assures eternal domestic bliss
and which he expects will net him Q
fortune in a shor time.
The police satisfied themselves he had
stolen the coat he tried to pawn
and he was released.

HAS TO TAKE IN WASHING
Mrs. Sloan Lost Her Husband and
Two Sons in the Explosion.
A DISGRACE TO THE CITY
Her Home Has Been Saved Through
Attorney Leehey's Efforts. but b
Has to Make Her Living the
Best Way She Can.

Mrs. John Sloan. who lost her husband
and two sons In Butte's powder expio-
sion. is at length relieved of a mortgage
which at one time threatened her whole
property. There were legal complications
arising from the fact that Mr.. Sloan died
so suddenly. his papers being in bad
shape. Attorney NJ. d. Leehy volunteered
his services and has succeeded in straight
ening out the middle. He has sold part
of Mrs. Sloan's property for sufficient to
pay on the mortgage. which was for 81, 4l6.
So Mrs. Sloan has her home free. but will
have to continue taking in washing for a
living, as she has no other resources. Yes
terday Mr.. Leehy received from Henry
Filing. the banker at Helena. a check for
$5 for the benefit of Mrs. Sloan. 1t is to
be hoped that some Butte people will also
awaken to the fact that Butte never had
such a disgrace as that found in the fact
that a woman who lost her husband and
two sons in fighting fire for the city should
have to get her living by taking in wash
ing. II is a disgrace that is indelible.
Money is being raised for the families of
soldiers who went to the front, but the
families of the dead fire heroes seem ut
terly forgotten.

"t''"'' '"''fF -th
Washington, July 13.-Among the
best informed administration officials
the opinion is universal tonight that
the crisis at Santiago is at hand. 1t
is deemed certain that tomorrow will
witness either a desperate fight or an
unconditional surrender on the part of
the Spanish forces. with the chances OF
both so evenly divided that there is
scarcely a toss-up between them.
The war officials are hoping for a
surrender of the city, and they gener-
ally believe that General Toral, the
Spanish commander. viii yield at the
last NM rather than subject his
men to what inevitably will be a losing
fight. He is evidently h~esitating as
to what course he shall pursue. and, as
Adjutant Gener Corbin. commenting
upon the situation tonight said: THE
soldier who hesitates is doomed"
Up to 1880 o'clock tonight not a word
of information that would throw any
light upon the situation at Santiago
had been received by the war depart
ment. Both Secretary Alger n Ad-
tutant General Corbin expressed the
opinion that nothing tangible would be
received tomorrow until afternoon.
