LA CHAMPAGNE AT HALIFAX.
Had Been Anchored on the Grand Bank for
Eleven Days.


Eleven Days.
Halifax. N. S., Feb. 2S.-The overdue
French steamer La Champagne was
towed into Halifax yesterday afternoon
by the steamer Roman. At 5:15 La
Champagne dropped her anchor in mid
stream off the center of the city, while
the Roman steamed to her dock. Hun
dreds Of people flocked to the wharves
to watch the two big steamers move
slowly up the harbor.
New York, Feb. 2S.-rThe news that
the La Champagne is safe at Halifax
has been expected here ever since the
arrival of the Holland American line
steamer Rotterdam Saturday night, hav-
ing on board the third officer and nine
Of the crew Of La Champagne. They
were picked up from the life boat on Feb.
"a. Some of them had their hands and
feet frozen. They reported having left
their ship on Friday, Feb. IS, in search
away her tail-end shaft on Feb. II and
anchored on the Newfoundland banks.
Orders were Immediately sent to Hall
fax for a steamer to proceed to the
assistance of La Champagne.
There is a short story to tell, for 1t
was only possible danger the passengers
on the big ship had to face. When the
boat left her to hunt assistance all on
board were well, she was safely an
chored, provisioned for a month and
nobody felt any apprehensions.

ELECTIONS COMING IN SPAIN.
They May Result I'm Return to Power of
the Conservative Party.

the Conservative Party.
Washington, March 1.-The state de-
partment has received dispatch from
Minister Woodford announcing the o. )
solution of the cortes. The dissolutip.
of the cortes had been expected, am i
may be attended with important re-.
suits. The two parties, Liberal IL.
Conservative, will now appeal &C -

the political complexion of the min So
The Sagasta ministry now in power, Is
Liberal. It's retention in power means
much at the present juncture, for it WAS
on the advent of the Sagasta regime
that General Weyler was recalled the
reconcentrado DEGREES were annulled.
and the present plan of autonomy put
in force. The policy now being pursued
by General Blanco in Cuba is an entire
reversal of that under the Conservative
regime of Canovas and his successor.
Senior Du Bose, the Spanish charge
d'affaires, has not received official noti-
fication of the dissolution of the cortes,
but he says this was expected, as the
work of the present cortes was con-
cluded. Under the laws of Spain forty
days must expire before the election of
the new cortes occurs. Dr Bose, who Is
himself a Liberal and a warm sup
porter of the Sagasta ministry, says
there Is no doubt the result will be the
return OF a Liberal majority in the
cortes, and the consequent continu-
ance of the present ministry. All par
ties of late have given loyal aid to the
Liberal ministry and its policy toward
Cuba, and the present time is regarded
by Du Bose as suspicious for cam
paign which he asserts will continue
the present authorities in power.
In other quarters 1t Is felt that the
Conservatives may take this oppor-
tunity to regain the reins of govern
ment by making a campaign against
the Cuban policy Of the Sagasta regime.
The Weyler element is another growing
factor in Spanish affairs, and it is ex-
pected that the Weylerites either will
cast their influence with the Conserva-
tives who sent General Weyler to Ha-
vana, or else make their appearance as
a distinct political organization, rep
resentative Of the army and navy and
the martial spirit in general. To con-
siderable extent the contest will be be-
tween the war element and the peace
element.
Elections will be held not only in
Spain, but also in Cuba and Porto Rico.
The present election will be confined
entirely to the choice of delegates to the
imperial parliament and Will not be
a part of the autonomous plan for a
local government of Cuba. The latter
elections have not been fixed, and the
time for them will be set by the au-
tonomous cabinet

SHERIFF MARTIN TESTIFIES.
Tells the Story of the Lattimer Tragedy as
1t Appeared to Him.

1t Appeared to Him.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, March 2. Sheriff
Martin was called yesterday to testify
in the trial of himself and deputies. His
commission and proclamation were read
and placed in evidence. He then went
on to tell his story, and sopke for an
hour without interruption. He told of
previous troubles with the strikers and
finally got down to the day of the
tragedy. OF this he said: THE mob
swore at us when we approached, cursed
me and would not bulge when 1 told
them to do so. 1 read my proclamation
and walked through them, asking them
to go home. One young man swore at
me violently and said they would go to
Lattimer in spite of me. 1 arrested him.
One man picked up a stone, but dropped
it when 1 pointed my revolver at him.
I told a crowd Of spectators to go home,
as the strikers were desperate and there
might be trouble. Finally the strikers
left the road and started off over some
lots. Soon heard they were going to
Lattimer and I hurried off with my
deputies to intercept them.
1T told them again to keep cool and
not to shoot unless their lives or mine
were in danger. After lining them up
alongside the road 1 told them 1 would
go out to meet the strikers and try once
more TO dispense them. A deputy asked
IL he should not go with me. No. /

was enough to die at once. 1 felt some-
how that there was going to be trou-

from the deputies and asked them where
they were going. TO stop the Lattimer

them they must not go and tried to read
my proclamation to them, but they
crowded around me, swearing at me
and hustling me to one side.

then attempted to get hold of him, but
the crowd jumped on me and pounded
me about the body. dropped my paper
and pulled my revolver. One of the
men tried to snatch the revolver from
me. but failed. Then he struck me an
awful blow in the face and knocked
me to my knees. I tried to shoot him.
but my revolver would not explode
Then the shooting commenced. 1t lasted
about a half minute. In the crowd

and one with a knife. The latter made
