NEW YORK, April 23.-The Herald's
special correspondent at Guayaquil, Ecua-
dor, telegraphs that the city is in turmoil
and that a state of terror prevails there.
Governor Ignacio Robles, very popular
and wealthy leader. had an alteration
with the military commander of the city.
The former slapped the commander, who IL
a brother of President Alfaro in the face.
whereupon he had the Governor placed in
Jail.
The populace rose and demanded the re-
lease of the Governor and the removal and
punishment of the commander.
President Alfaro, on hearing of the trou-

for the release Of the Governor, who has
resigned. ~

scuttled by her Spanish crew.
A Protest Filed

"A AOISot - AACA
LIVERPOOL, April 23.-The owners of
the Buena Ventura, the Spanish
ship captured by the United States
gunboat Nashville yesterday, have
issued a signed protest against her cap
ture. They say the cargo belongs to Brit
ish merchants and was insured in Great
Britain. They further allege the capture
was illegal, as the ultimatum of the Presi-
dent had not expired when she was cap
tured.
Indignant Dons
MADRID, April 2S.-The capture of the
Spanish steamer Buena Ventura by a
aroused the greatest indignation,
the Spaniards claiming that hos
tilities are net yet supposed TO
have begun. The newspapers of the city
characterize the seizure of the ship as an
act of piracy and being in defiance of the
international law, characteristic Of the
Yankees"
1t is again rumored that the Spanish
squadron has sailed from the Cape Verde
Islands, but its destination is not given.
Observed the Law
MADRID, April 23.-It is announced
here that Spanish warships yesterday
refrained from the easy capture of two
American merchant vessels because war
was not declared and they desired to re-
spect international law.
Possible Prizes
SAN FRANCISCO. April 23.-A big fleet
of coal vessels Is now on the way to San
Francisco from Australian and English
ports. Coal is a contraband Of war, and
merchants of this city have been prepar-
ing for the coming struggle between this
country and Spain. No more coal can

with provisions for the Spanish ports. but
the 500 mules and the fine bay horse in
tended for General Blanco were taken
from the ship by Collector Wilkinson as
contraband goods.
Spanish Mail Boat In Danger
LONDON, April 23.-A dispatch from
Singapore says there is reason to believe
that the Spanish mail boat Isla de Min
danao will be captured by the United
States cruisers before she arrives at Man
ila.
Refused Cargo
LIVERPOOL, April 2S.-The steamship
of the Beaver Line sailing today, refused
to take a cargo of gun cotton, lead and

INSURGENTS
RESUME HOSTILITIES AND IN
DEADLY EARNEST
Pending the Creation Of Government
an American Protectorate Would
Be Heartily Welcomed

SAN FRANCISCO, April 23-That the
rebels in the Philippines have begun hostil-
tiles again in deadly earnest is fully con-
firmed by the Oriental mail advices re-
ceived by the steamer Rio de Janeiro.
Shortly before the cutting of the telegraph
between Bolinao and Manila word reached
the hands Of the insurrectionists. The
Spanish soldiers took refuge in the English
telegraph station, which was barricaded.
Repeated demands were made that the
soldiers be made to evacuate the place,
else the building would be attacked and
destroyed.
Much time was spent in parleying, and
in the meantime General Monet arrived
from Manila with 1000 men and dispersed
the besiegers. He reported that he had
five engagements between Bolinao and Lin
gayen. The insurgents suffered heavy
losses and the Spanish losses were one
Lieutenant and one soldier. The garrison
and priests of neighboring villages hal
been killed, only six soldiers managing to
escape. In some villages the garrisons sur
rendered their arms on condition that they
would be allowed to go to the nearest
friendly village. This the rebels agreed
to, but after getting their arms the soldiers
were killed, proving that the Bolinao gar
rison was only spared on account of the
English staff being there. The telegraph
line from Lingayen to within few miles
of Bolinao station has been cut to pieces,
and party is now engaged in repairing
1t.
Uprisings are reported from many Sec
tions and desertions of the netiye regi
ments are of frequent occurrence.
Need Protection
LONDON, April 23.-The Evening News
publishes dispatch from Singapore say
ing that II am informed on the highest
rebel authority in the Philippine Islands,
through confidential channel, that an
American protectorate would be well
coined at present as a guarantee Of public
safety, pending the creation of reformed
administration. There is reason to believe
that the Spanish mail steamer ,Isla de
Mindano will be captured before she ar
rives at Manila. Before starting she was
provided with British and Russian flags
and painted out the name on the funnel,
in imitation of the steamers of the Rus
sian volunteer fleet humber Of which are
on their way to Port Arthur. Admiral
Dewey learned of the scheme from General
Lee on April 13. A homeward bound Span
ish mail steamer has mounted two quick
firing guns and two Nordenfelts on i'm
provised mountings at Manila, although
the vessel will not bear the shock Of the
discharge Of the guns owing to the weak
ness Of the fixings."

Department, his attention was never called
to what he had not observed.
Secretary Sherman's physician has ad-
vised him that he should retire. He is the
only person who has spoken to the Secre-
tary on the question of his health.
The almost unanimous opinion II that
Secreary Sherman will retire to his home
and devote whatever time he can to the
management Of his personal affairs.
The opinion that Judge Day will succeed
Secretary Sherman Is based upon the
knowledge that President Mckinley -

SHERMAN'S HEALTH
Makes Retirement From Office Abso-
lutely Necessary

WASHINGTON, April 23.-The Evening
Star today says:
On the best information 1t can be stated
that Secretary Sherman contemplates leav-
Ing the Cabinet and that he will probably
withdraw within the next few days. 1t is
generally understood that he will be sue

DEATH OF CAPT. FRANCIS COUSINS.

DEATH OF CAPT. FRANCIS COUSINS.
Capt. Francis Cousins, Il known
shipmaster and builder, died las. Tues
day after an Illness of several mont hs.
His disease was cancer in he throat. 1t
first appeared under his left ear while on
voyage to Bermuda two years ago Two
surgical operations were performed last
winter but neither proved permanently
successful. He had been confined to his
bed since last June.
Twenty-three years ago he, with his
father, Phineas Cousins, built the
schooner "Annie +. Collins, which he
sailed six years. She sank while under
full sail near the coast OF Long Island,
n. Y, on the sound. She was raised and
sold to parties in New London, Conn.
For few years after losing his vessel he
followed the trade OF ship carpenter. In
1890 he built the three masted schooner
MARY {. Stuart', which he sold, most j.
to parties in Ellsworth. In 1891 he built
the schooner "Hazet Dell", which he
sailed until little over year ago.
Capt. Cousins WAS fiity-six years and
eight months old. He was a stirring, en-
terprisiDg man ana accomplished a great
deal with the limited means at his COM
mand. He WAS pleasant and fla bic and
had many friends. He leaves a wife and
three daughters. He was member CT
the A. o. L. W, which otiicisted at his
funeral.
Capt. Cousins expressed himself as
being ready and willing to die, having
faith in God and the hope OF blessed
immortality. \ few hours before his
death tie requested his wife to remain by
his bedside ana not leave him again. A
she tenderly watched over him, his
bresth grew fainter and fainter until he
passed away, like one who wraps the
drspery of his couch about him. aud lies
down to pleasant dreams.
Let u think that his dying eyes read
mystic meaning which only the rapt and
parting soul may know. Let us believe
that in the silence Of the rcceding world,
he heard the great waves breaking on
future shore. and felt already, on his
wasted brow, the breath OF the eternal
morning
