POPE LEO VERY ILL.
Contracted an Internal Chill Owing
to Sudden Change in Weather.

ROME Aug. 10.-Owing to the sudden fall
in the temperature the Pope has contracted
an internal chill. On the advice of his ply
sician, DR.. Lapponi, who recommends rest,
his holiness has suspended all audiences.
The Observatore Romano declares that
there is no cause for anxiety, but rumors
are current that the Pope is suffering from
extreme physical weakness, and that all
business is practically left to Cardinal Ram
polla, the papal secretary of state.

the War VIII Be Pushed.
LONDON, Aug. 10-The Washington cor
respondent of the Daily Mail says: "Spain's
acceptance of the American peace conditions
so equivocal that President Mckinley
determined to compel assent to a protocol
fixing definite terms and the answer given to
M. Cambon practically amounted to an ulti-
matum. ut is understood that unless the
protocol is signed Immediately all negotia-
tions will be suspended and the war vigor-
ously continued. The United States will not
abate its terms by an iota."
The Madrid correspondent of the Times
says: THE suggestion that the Cabinet
ought to resign finds little favor among
those having the country's interest at heart
1t emanates from the parliamentary free
lances, who are anxious to enjoy the sweets
of office. but possess only a small following
in the Chamber of Deputies. The Carlist
agitation seems suspended for the moment;
and the best authorities are convinced that
there will be no rising until peace is con-
cluded.'

Club Reception.

The Cheat Canyon Club is going
to give swell reception at their
Castle next full moon. The lads and
lassies will do well to come to an
early understanding in order that
they may not get left. Every fellow
will want his best girl that night,
and every girl will want her best
fellow. Better see that nobody gets
there before you These club recep-
tions are the events of the season.
The mellow moonlight on the noun
tains as seen from the broad porch
es of the club house is one Of the
most enchanting sights that can be
seen in any country. Added to
this is the music, the lights and the
gay enjoyments of the interior, with
the delightful drive home after it is
all over. There is no place where
society is so free from formality, and
the social spirit is so unconfned
and the people get closer together
than at country reception, and the
Cheat castle is an ideal place for
such an event.

SANTIAGO SURRENDERS.

WASHINGTON, July Ia, 49, Toral
agrees to surrender if the men under
him are returned to Spain. The
surrender will include nearly all of
eastern Cuba as well as the invested
city. Shafter has notified the au-

accepted. The United States had
offered these terms previously.
Thirty two thousand Spaniards will
lay down their arms if the offer is
accepted. 1t will end the war.

JARRETT WILDMAN SUICIDES
Shoots Himself with Revolver
about Noon To-day.

Ball Enters the Breast near the Heart.
Ill Health is the Cause Of the Rash

Who the Suicide is.
Jarret Wildman, supposed to be the
richest man in the county, is proba-
bly, dead at his own hands. He shot
himself with revolver at noon and
when last heard from it was not
thought that he could possibly live,
as he was then dying. The family
have given up hope
DR.. Reinhardt, of Cassvilie, was
sent for at once and went there i'm
mediately to look after the wounded
man. The result of his labors has
not been heard and all the particu
lars are very meager at two O'clock.
The deed was committed about
noon and the scene of the tragedy
was in grain house near his own
house. Who discovered the fact and
gave the alarm as well as the subse-
quent events cannot be learned. The
telephone is mile and half from
the place where the suicide occurred
and the people there know but little
about the affair.
The weapon used was a revolver
and the ball entered the breast a
short distance below the heart. The
wounded man has been unconscious
since the shooting.
The news of the suicide has Gre
ated tremendous sensation all over
the county as he is reputed to be the
richest man in the county.
He has been sick for some time
and it is thought the cause for the
rash deed was due to that fact. He
was about sixty years old and
leaves a wife and six children. The
children are all grown.
Full particulars are expected later
of the sad affair.
Lateral two thirty it was
heard here that he was dead, but no
further particulars were given.

ON AGAIN.

Randolph County Court orders new
County Seat Election.-A hot time
promised.
The county court of Randolph
county has granted the petition Of
the people of Elkins in the court
house fight and the matter will go
to the people again about the loca-
ton of the county seat. The last
time it was up it was voted down by
a small vote and the Beverly people
promised that they would talk new
court house for five years If it were
allowed to remain in their town.
However, they disregarded the
pledge and started in to build new
one. The contract had been let but
this will stop the whole proceeding
until the fight is gone over again.
This time it is thought that it will
carry. The fight will be an interest
ing one at any rate and from the in
tensity of it has attracted much at
tention in this section Of the State.

CASH FOR SMASHING CERvERA.
Sampson will get $4,000 and Schley
$4,000 Captains $4,000 Apiece;
Sailors. $50.

Something like 100000 will be
paid by this government as ''head
money" to the officers and sailors
who destroyed Cervera's fleet. This
is according to the law, which pro-
vides payment of 500 a head for
every man on the ships of an enemy
when those ships are destroyed.
There is an old adage in the navy
about the distribution of money
earned in this manner. According
to the jack tars of the navy, the
money is poured over a ladder,
whereupon all that falls through
goes to the officers and what re-
mains on the rungs goes to the
sailors. Nevertheless, every man in
Admiral SIMPSONS fleet will receive
purse, small or great. Admiral
Sampson will receive over SO, 900 as
his share, and Commodore Schley
will receive only about 81, 900 of the
'head money" 1t is estimated that
Capts Taylor, Evans, Philip, Chad
wick, Higginson, Clark and Cook
will receive about $500 each. At
ter the other officers of the warships
receive their share, the remainder
will be divided among the sailors,
who may receive something like $40
each.

THE WAR PROGRESS.
A Few of the Things that have
been done in the last
twenty-four hours.

While the expected fall Of
Santiago did not take place
yesterday it is evident that
the crisis has been reached.
Within the next few hours the
city will be surrendered or it
will have received such a bap-
tism of fire as seldom falls to
the lot of a besieged town.
eff he refuses | will open on
him at noon Thursday with
every gun that | have, the as
sistance of the navy who are
ready to lombard the city
with thirteen inch shells. .
This is Skaters program and
it will be carried out to the
letter.
Yellow fever has broken
out among the troops invest
ing the city. Operations will
be pushed with haste in order
to get the men away before the
ravages of the diseases become
what they will be in a short
time simply freightful.
The report received yester-
day that General Miles has
taken personal command has
been confirmed. He will make
amends for any delays or mis-
takes that have been make.
The particulars of the vic
tory won by Dewey at Subig
Bay have been received and
his official report will be found
in another column. 1t is even
more complete than at first
reported. Thirteen hundred
prisoners were captured.
The German men of war
at Manila still keep gay and a
collision between them and
Dewey is likely to occur and
will take place unless they
modify their behavior soon.
1t is now reported that when
Blanco heard of Cervera's
crushing defeat that he at
tempted suicide and had to
be forcibly restrained to pre-
vent him taking his own life.
Meetings looking toward an
ngloAmerican league are
being held in Great Britain
and they are showing very
strong sentiment in that di-
rectlon all over the King
dom.
It is announced from Wash
ington that no more truces
will be granted to Toral and
that he will be fought into sub
mission as fast as a rain of
projectiles and continued as
saults on the city will do it.
The campaign will be forced
from now on.

UNITED STATES COAST
A ROCK OF GIBRALTAR.
Pittsburg Labor is Called Upon
to Build Some Gigantic
Forti6cations.
Will Commence Work SOon-Material
Must Be the Best 0btainable-Fi
Defense Will BE Erected at Great
Diamond Island, Near Portland. Me,
What is to be Furnished.
Pittsburg Post.

Pittsburg labor may be called upon
to furnish the material for one of the
finest modern Notifications in the
world. Bids are being advertised for
and several large iron manufacturers
Of this city are among the bidders.
Uncle Sam means to get to work at
once building Notifications at all the
principal seaport towns and cities on
his coast. The first defense is to be
built at Great Diamond island near
Portland, Me-, and no expense is to
be spared to make it among the best
in the world.
Specifications have been in the
hands of the Pittsburg contestants
for the work for several days, but
great efforts have been made to keep
the matter from the public. Major
r.. L. Hoxie, chief of Government
engineer corps, at Portland, working
under orders of the secretary Of war,
is the man to whom all bids must
be sent and they must reach that Of
fetal, with stated bond to bind the
bidder to his contract, not later than
July Is, at 2 o'clock noon.
Every known device in connection
with modern forttications is be be in
cluded on what may be called the
first work toward making the coast
Of the United States a Crock Of Glib
raltar." Included in the specifica-
tions are: One hundred pieces Of bar
iron for cage doors; 1,175 feet iron
beams for trolley rails, to be used as
overhead cranes for transporting
heavy pieces of artillery; 16 iron
cranes; 800 feet galvanized iron tub
ing; l52 posts, each 81 feet long; q
iron ladders, to be % and 30 feet
long; 26 iron lifts, each TO have two
platforms; 256 bronze hinges; $50
roof beams with attachments; 112
connecting angles; so anchor bolts;
Is wall plates; 600 feet brass speak
ing tubes; 800 feet galvanized iron
tubing for covering brass speaking
tubes: Is cast iron door stills; "a anch-
or bolts for ball rings; and Is large
drain covers.
Further requirements follow which
specify that the material to be used
in the manufacture of the above ar
ticles is to be Of the best obtainable.
Pittsburg with its great iron manu-
featuring facilities stands about the
best chance in the field of bidders to
capture the contract. 1t would mean
much to the labor world to have the
order placed here.
The facts as above stated were OBJ
tanned through Major Charles E.
Powell, chief of Government engineers
in the Pittsburg district. This Off
cial intimated that the fact that this
gigantic fertilization is to be built
may mean a series of such defenses at
every principal coast city on the At
lantic and Pacific oceans and Great
Lakes.
