Spanish Consul Frightened,

Kingston. Jamaica, May 6.-Copyright
1898 by the Associated Press.-1l u. m
Since the American consular affairs
were placed In the hands of the British
consuis, the anti English feeling has
developed In the cities of Cuba held by
the spaniards. This has been Increased
by the friendly English comments re-
produced in the Spanish and Cuban
press
Naval men at Port Royal expect that
the cruisers recently added to the West
Indies fleet will be sent to Cuban ports
for the moral effect of the demonstra-
ton.
Senior Marconel, the Spanish con-

OPPOSED TO BONDS.
Majority Of Senate Committee Against that
Feature of the War Measure.

u-osbippton. May 5.--The Senate
.,m,n,ittee on finance was not In ses-
IAN today, having adjourned over I'M
N tomorrow in order to permit the
namocratic members to prepare sub
.,Itnte for the bond provisions of the
rsvsnue bill. There Is now no doubt
,s,t there will be a majority In the
.ommttee against the bond feature. as
sanator Jones of Nevada has taken
,osi,lon against 1t and Senator Wolcott
Sss indicated that he will oppose 1t II
on acceptable substitute can be Sc
cured. The Republican members OF the
committee, with the exception OF Sen
ator WolcOtt, were in conference over
he situation for several hours.
There is little doubt from Senator
Wolcott's expressions in the committee
Yesterday and the fact that he did not
n with the Republican members to-
aav that he will vote to eliminate the
bond provision, but II Is understood
hat he Ia not quite so clear as to the
support of a substitute. The Repub-
lean members are disturbed over the
discovery Of his position and are con-
sIderng how to best repair the breach
occasloned by his probable detection.
they were not so greatly surprised at
Nj. Joness position, although they had
hoped to be able to secure his support
., the measure practically as 1t passed
she House.
The proposition on which Senator
Wolcott and Senator Jones of Nevada
voted with the Democrats in the COM
rlt,ee on finance yesterday was gen.
er,l declaration to the effect that the
Bill should provide more than 500. 000.-
w In revenue. On this the two West
frn ssnAtors aligned themselves with
the psmocrats, and in opposition to
The R,publcans. The declaration was
caasrued by the Republican members
Eh opposition to the bond provision.
The Democratic members of the
finance committee held conference
late this afternoon and agreed upon an
azsndment they will offer to the bill.
IMPOSING a tax of per cent upon the
nrenues of certain corporations, In
euding railroad. express, sleeping-car
telegraph and telephone companies.
This probably is the only addition they
will suggest to the revenue portion of
the bill but 1t Is probable that they will
also urge the coinage of the silver
sslgnlorage in the treasury and the is
susnce of at least sl50.0O0,000 in green
backs.
The segniorage amounts to about
R00o,00O, and the intention is to au-
,horlze the issuance of certificates for
Il, so as to secure immediate money.
and not wait upon the coinage OF the
silver. Those certificates. with the
greenbacks, would give si92000,0O0 of
immediate cash, and the Democrats
think this would be sufficient for the
immediate wants of the government.
They believe that the tax they propose
on corporations would increase the reg
ular revenues to the extent of about
So.0oo,oO0 annually.

CRUISER MONTGOMERY CHASED.

officers of an Alleged French Steam
er Tell a Fishy story.
Copyright, 1898, by the Associated Press.
Port au Prince Hayti, May S.-The
United States cruiser Montmogery, Com
mander G. A. Converse, is supposed to
have been engaged with much larger
Spanish cruiser last night, northwest of
Cape Haytien, a seaport town of Haytl,
on its north coast, ninety miles north OF
Port au Prince.
The FreRch steamer Olinde Roddrigues,
from Havre on April 16 for Haytian ports,
was at Cape Haytien. where a Spanish
warship is said to have been watching
her, mistalling the steamer for an Amerl-
can vessel.
When the Olinde Roddrigues left Cape
Haptlen, the Spanish warship approached
and allowed her to continue on 10 this port
on recognizing the French flag.
The United States cruiser Montgomery
left Cape Haytien soon afterward' and the
spaniard, which is presumed to have been
watching for her, is said to have pursued
the American cruiser, both of them putting
on full steam.
The Spaniard, according to the story
told by the crew of the French steamer.
gained in the pursuit, which was wit
messed from the bridge Of the Olinde Rod
drigues by the officers of that vessel.
The two warshfps went in the same di-
rection, with the Spaniard behind.
The latter appeared to be formidable
vessel, and much larger and faster than
the Montgomery.
BY nightfall, 1t is added, four discharges
of cannon were heard, which were believ-
cd to be the result Of the Spaniard firing
upon the American warship.
Darkness, it is said, prevented any fur
ther observations being made, though the
French officers say the moon was so
bright that the battle could have been
continued, especially as the sea was calm,
only a mild trade wind blowing from the
land.
Strange to say, 1t appears that all the
passengers OF the Olinde Roddrigues were
below at supper while this exciting Incl
dent was occurring, but the officers of the
steamer which arrived here to-day, say
they are confident tho Montgomery was
overrna tched and that her only means Of
escaDing was to run close into shore dur
ing the darkness.
The vessel which pursued the cruiser
Montgomery is supposed to have been tho
spanish warship Vizcaya; and il is sug-
gested that possibly the Montgomery on
ticed the Spaniard within striking dis
tance of Admiral Sampson.

STRANGE TELEPHONE USES.
A Cincinnati Man Pays $1OS to Hear
the Voices of His Fa Family-Attend-
ing Meetings by Phone.

It was Cincinnati man who rushed
into long-distance telephone office,
carrying his grip as if fresh from his
train, and asked to be connected with
his home.
He had nothing in particular to say,
but it seemed to give him pleasure to
hear the voices of the dear ones in the
home he had left. First the wife ex-
changed a few words; then, one after
another, each Of the five children came
to the phone and "helloed," told about
their school trials and triumphs and re-
lated the doings of the pet pony and
the cat and the canary.
Every five minutes, as is the custom
in costly long-distance work, the man
ager notified the proud papa, but he
always answered: "I'll take five min
utes more" until, last of all, the baby
had been held up to the transmitter and
had piped: Hello, papa!"
Then the Cincinnati man paid $1Os
and went away happy.
It only cost Chicago man about ten
dollars to telephone from somewhere in
Michigan to his dog. He was called
away from home suddenly on business.
The animal was missing him terribly.
the family wrote, refused to take his
meals and might die. Of course, let
ters and kilograms didn't reassure the
pining dog, though his friends tried
hard to explain things.
So the dog was taken to atelephone
receiver, and at the other end of the
wire the Chicago man began a series of
cheerful, if slightly, inane remarks:
''Wha' re matter, old boy?" he began,
and the dog commenced to prick up its
ears. "Brace up, old fellow. Was its
precious dogums lonesome, hey? Too
bad! Shouldn't leave him, so he
shouldn't. Coming back soon, dogums.
There now. Be good dog and dontee
KY"
When the conversation ceased the dog
barked, as much as to say; Cant make
me believe he's dead after that"
There have been many cases of court
ship by long-distance telephone; little
ingenuity and few round, white dol
lars often enable an absent one to keep
himself not forgotten, even in null
tiplicity of suitors buzzing about the
girl he left behind him.
And, of course, cases are accumulat-
ing until they are no longer novelty of
bank and corporation directors attend
ing meetings by phone, or even presid-
ing over meetings 1000 miles or so away.
The long-distance telephone enables
men in distant cities to discuss and close
great business deals as comfortably as
if they were in the same off1ce.-N. Y.
