WINE SEIZED BY CONSTABLES
THE NEW ENGLAND SOCIETY OF. CHARLEST0N, s. C., DISTURBED.
Annual Banquet nt Which Senator Hoar Was the Guest of Honor-Gov- ernor ElIerbec Had to be Appealed to Before 1t Was ReIeased.

Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 22.-A special to the Constitution from Charleston, s. C., says: Dispensary constables to-day seized the fine stock of wines imported here for the seventy ninth annual ban quet of the New England society of Charleston, which was given tonight. The wines were stored yesterday in the Charleston hotel. When the stock was seized the Rev. Dr. Vedder, president ,of the society, appealed to the consta- bles to surrender it, but his request was refused The situation began to look serious. United States Senator Hoar of Massachusetts was the guest of hon. or at the banquet, which was the most elaborate affair of the kind of the sea- son. There was no chance to get other wines in the city.
 United States Senator McLaurin, who delivered an address at the banquet, was seen and asked to use his influence to get back the liquors. He sent a warm telegram to Governor Ellerbee, and asked him to make the constables deliver the goods. Shortly afterwards a telegram from Columbia announced that the wines would be released. Sha"p orders were sent to the constables and the wines flowed as usual at the ban quet. The seizure is being highly con- demned

NEWS FROM HATANA.
Lee Orders Stars and Stripes Lowered nj
 Fort Atares,

Havana, Dec. 22.-Major Russell Har- rison, the provost marshal, who on Tuesday raised the Stars and Stripes over Fort Atares, without orders and in contravention of the promise of the United States evacuation commission CTS that the American flags should not be raised in Havana or its suburbs un- til January l. was to-day formally rep rimanded by Major General Lee and instructed to lower the flag. Lieuten- ant Lee reported a few hours later to headquarters that the flag had been lowered. Nevertheless, at the hour of filing this dispatch, 430 p. m, it is still flying on a tall staff over the fla nous fort plainly visible from the har- Dor and city.
 Major General Lee having received a cable dispatch from General Alger, saying that the secretary of war under stood there were thousands of per sons starving in Havana and directing him to feed them Without delay in- mediately ordered Lieutenant Colonel Wood to distribute rations and to make systematic efforts to feed the helpless, carefully avoiding waste. There are hundreds in Havana to-day who, though not actually starving, are in a deplorable state of weakness and dis ease, the effects of the cruel reconcen- tration policy. They need hospital treatment, which is not always avail able Much of the wretchedness is due to the neglected condition of the tene- ments. Every day or so the relief dis tributors came upon dead bodies, ter ribly emaciated. Two were found in the suburbs of Cerro yesterday It is difficult to distinguished between the professional vagrant and the really de- serving cases, but the committee with out distinction will render valuable ser vice.
 The Cuban colonel, Raoul Arango, with 600 Cuban horsemen, paraded in Jesus del Monte to-day and then marched again to camp.

Serious Accident at Seth Thomas Clock
 Company In Thomaston

Thomaston, Conn.,, Dec. 22.-The col lapse of newly erected water tank on the brick factory, one of the three factories connected with the Seth Thomas Clock company's plant, shortly after o'clock this afternoon, resulted in tfie almost entire destruction of the factory and caused money loss of fully $10,000. Fortunately, however, there was no casualties, though the es- cape from loss of life is miraculous. The firm was running over time on account of the rush of orders and as it will ne- cessitate between five and six weeks to make the necessary repairs the delay will be a serious one. About 175 hands, men and women, were employed in this factory. The tank was erected by the Foskett & Bishop O. of New Haven. It was of wood fifteen feet high and twenty feet in diameter at the base. Its capacity was 10,242 gallons and weighed forty-three tons The tank was built at the suggestion of the in surance inspectors in order to give the factory better protection against fire, and it was only a short time ago that 1t was completed and accepted by the inspectors. No water was run into it, however until day or two ago. The tank rested on spiles on the roof and was seventy feet from the ground. It was on the east end, but in falling ca reened towards the west and crashed through the center of the factory, driv- ing a hole fully thirty feet in diameter through the three stories The entire west wall was cut out and portion of the east wall, though the ends remained
 intact. The employees were at work at the ends and the center was used for storing goods and supplies, which was the reason of none of the employees being caught in the crash. sThere were many narrow escapes, however. Many of the women employees tainted and many others had to be assisted out of the building by means of ladders. Miss Nellie Bidwell, who was passing along the east side of the building just as the accident took place, was struck by fly ing bricks and received severe injuries, but that is the only accident so far as known. An investigation will be made to determine the responsibility.
 The collapse of the tank was so sud- den and the resistance to the immense weight so trifling that there was ap- parently not the slightest check to it's progress until it landed in the basement. Then it broke apart and the immense volume of water poured out.

DIAMOND REEF AT LOW TIDE.
Makes Passage of Bnttleships From New
 York Harbor Impossible.

Washington, Dec. 22.-The naval au- thorities have learned to their surprise that it is not possible for one of our big battleships, like the Oregon or Massa chusetts, to get out of New York harbor during extra low water, such as pre- vailed when the latter battleship struck on Diamond Reef short time ago. To aid the court of inquiry now in session at New York trying to ascertain the responsibility for the grounding, the naval department called upon the coast survey for special measurements of the water in the harbor near Diamond Reef and upon the rock itself. The report of the superintendent of the survey has just been received and it shows that, in the opinion of the naval officials, it is not possible for a ship like the Massa- chusetts to get out of the harbor with out touching the bottom when the tide is ebb and the wind strong. She must pass on the Brooklyn shore of Coenties Reef and then cross over to the channel between Diamond Reef and the New York shore. The turn is too short for the Massachusetts to make, and the best water to be found in the best course Sne COulu DICK U11 IDe Qdy SHe touched was one foot and four inches lower than the draft of the ship as she started, namely, twenty-six feet and two inches. Of course these conditions are not normal in the harbor, but they may occur on any low tide with the wind in certain quarter, so the mat ter will be brought to the attention of congress at once with a view to secur- ing the removal of the upper part of Diamond Reef.

Sears started sight favorite, and, in the early rounds, had the advantage. Once or twice he looked like a winner In the twelfth round Wright rolled him over with a smashing hit on the chin from which he never recovered, though he held on until the fifteenth round, when the referee, seeing that Sears chances were hopeless, stopped one of the gamest bouts ever seen here in a long time.

PREsENTED TO sCnLEY.
Beautiful Sword, Scabbard and Belt
 That Cost $4,2OO.

hAN Sost PHs~uu'
 Philadelphia, Dec. 22.-Rear Admiral Schley was to-day the recipient of handsome and costly sword, scabbard and belt presented to him in behalf of the people of this city and other cities in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Dela- ware, who contributed to fund estab- lished for the purpose. The ceremony took place in the Temple Baptist church and Colonel A. K. Mcclure presided. The formal presentation was made by Miss Rena McNeall, the fifteen-year- old sister of Private Harry McNeall of the marine corps, who distinguished himself during the battle of Santiago by clambering out on the muzzle of one of the cruiser Brooklyn's big guns dur ing a heavy fire and removing a loaded shell which had become fastened in the breach. There was large and enthu- siastic audience present and speeches were made by Governor Hastings and Mayor Warwick on behalf of the state and city. Governor-elect Stone also spoke in high terms of Admiral Schley and his achievements. The admiral in accepting the gift thanked the people and said: Let me hope with you that in Gods providence it may never be drawn without reason, but if it ever should be so willed that it must be, it will never be sheathed except in your greater honor.'' The sword scabbard and belt represent a cost of $4,20O. The blade is of fine Damascus steel, appro- priately engraved, and the hit is elab- orately decorated with diamonds and other precious stones.

HARYARD'S CENTER IS DEAD
PERCY IT. JAEFRIY EXPIRES SUD-
 DENLY OF SEPTIC4EMI4.
Imflamation of Lungs, Fol- lowed by General Infection of the Blood-Suffered Some Injury in Yale- Harvard Game-IIis Death Is Not Att tributed to This.

Cambridge, Mass, Dec. 22-Percy M. Jaffray, the tall center of Harvard's varsity football eleven the past season, died at his rooms, g Bow street, late this afternoon of blood poisoning. His death was quite sudden, as he was not taken violently i'll until noon, and after that physicians worked necessarily to ease his suffering. When death ensued the physicians were somewhat in doubt as to the exact nature of the disease, and spinal meningitis was suggested as a possible cause Tonight. however, an autopsy was held, and septicaemia is the official announcement A num- Der of prominent physicians attended the autopsy. The following official statement was issued:
 The post-mortem examination on the body of r. M. Jailray showed as the cause of death an acute. general septicaemia. This condition was the result of an acute infec- tlous inflammation of the lungs, which was followed by q general infection of the blood, There was no injury which could in any way have had an. influence in producing these conditions (Slgned)
 William D. Strong, NJ. D.. William F. Counselman, NJ. D.
 The death of Jaffray caused much sadness through the university, for he was very we'll liked. He was known to have suffered some injury in the Yale game, and toward the end of the second half retired. This injury, it is said was to the knee. Two weeks later he re- sumed his studies. He was twenty-one years of age and came from Irving-on- Hudson, N. Y. He was prepared for college at Westminster school, South Ferry, and played on the varsity eleven in 1885,
