A VIGOROUS PROTEST.
The Member of Company + Say That
Some One Is n Liar.
Camp Merritt, Cal, July |.

some one Is n Lar.
Camp Merritt. Cal, July 1.
To the Editor of the Anaconda Stand
ard:
In an issue of your paper of June 81.
last, we see an article rejecting on the
ability of our officers. Now we. the I'M
dersigned members of Company +, LIST
Montana u. S. v, brand the writer of
that letter as an Infamous liar. The Off
GERS of Company +, we consider. have
no peers, as officers or gentlemen, in
the United States service. Furthermore
we do not think that any member of our
company who has been placed in the
guard house doubts but what he de-
served all the punishment he received.
As for Company b being reduced, any
knowing anything of military
usages knows that their simply being
changed from one battalion to another
was no reduction. As for provisions, we
receive regular army r%ations, and find
no cause to complain.
After each weekly inspection our
colonel asks each company in the regi-
ment If it has any complaint to make.
We noticed there never has been a men,
Der Of our company step out to make
complaints.
There is perhaps one sore head some
where who was sent to the guard house
for just cause, who wrote to your in
formant, but we affirm that there has
never been, TO our knowledge m be-
lief, any punishment inflicted unjustly.
Al for clothing, the Montana volun-
teers received the best clothing of n
regiment in San Francisco. All the
kicks we have coming are that we have
not been offered a chance to follow our
colonies to the ront.
Hoping you will do justice to our Off.
GERS and ourselves by publishing the
above, we remain yours, In good health.

The House Rausacked.

The police were notified yesterday of a
petty burglary that occurred during the
Fourth of July parade at the residence
of John MCGOWAN of 40 Ohio avenue.
MCGOWAN and his family had been in
town to see the parade and on returning
home found the house had been ran
sacked. Entrance had apparently been
effected by unlocking the front door
with a skeleton key, as the door had
been locked when the family left and
was unlocked when they returned. The
burglars had not found anything of any
great value, as only q six-shooter. a
watch chain and a few trinkets were
missing.

Sagasta Oh the Situation

Madrid, August 20.-Senor Silvela,
now the virtual leader of the conser-
natives, expresses the views of that
party on the capture of Manila in the
following statement:
1.-The capture of Manila in no wise
affects the rest of the archipelago, and
the cortes should be summoned with
urgency in order to prevent the world
gaining the impression hat Spain has
lost her sovereignty in the Philippines.
The liberal party should conclude
peace, out the Sagasta cabinet cannot
effect the task" .
If the queen tenders him an invita-
ton Senior Silvela is disposed to accept
office.
The government has accepted the
resignation of the governor general of
the Canaries, General ManzanO. His
successor has not yet been appointed.
FL Liberal in ar article headed
Peace Without Fruits" says: The
government is beginning to be fright
ened by it's own handiwork, and it has
gained nothing by imposing silence
upon the press. Parliament n the
public ought to be informed fully as
to the progress of events. so that the
Spanish people will not be driven to
accept the wild umor hat come
from abroad. We are now entering a
period most difficult and perilOus and
it may have in store for Spain fresh
disasters greater than those Of the
past"
A cabinet minister who was inter-
viewed by a representative of the AS
ISOLATED Press this evening said it was
certain that Captain General BlancO
| would not hand over Cuba to the Amer
leans, since he had expressed a desire
| not to do so. The minister pointed out
taat the evacuation of Cuba would Oc-
! cupy a long time, and that the protocol
I, stipulated no period for the evacuation
of the island, but only that the laborS
! of the commission should begin with
in ten days after the signing Of the
| protocol.
| General BIanco, the minister said,
| could leave Cuba during the confer
| ences of the commission, still retain

Beaten To Death

Selma, Ala, August 19.-Alex. Walk
err, a negro living near Pleasant Hill,
was called from his cabin late last
night by a party of white men and
carried to the woods where he was
strapped to a stump and beaten with
buggy traces. He was released . n
managed to crawl back to his home,
where he died half an hour later. No
one seems to know who the parties
are who administered the beating and
no arrests have been made. The negro
it is said, has been very troublesome
in the neighborhood. Last week Dud-
ley Lewis had Walker arrested for
theft. It could not be proven and af-
ter the trial the negro insulted Mr..
Lewis and struck him.

A SPANISH SPY
Released From Prison Falls into the
Hands of a Mob at Atlanta and Comes
to Grief.

Atlanta, Ga, August 20.-JOs. Castel-
lanos, alias George Eduard Vanderbilt,
arrested in Tampa, Fla, three months
ago as a Spanish spy and since that
time imprisoned at Fort Mcpherson,
was given his liberty, together with
three other suspects today. The men
quickly separated and Vanderbilt, clad
in the Cuban uniform, which he wore
When arrested, came to town. His re-
ceptiOn was so demOnstratiVe that he
was soon placed in central police Sta-
ton for safety, where his numerous
wounds were dressed. He took his
departure under the cover of darkness.
On reaching Atlanta, Vanderbilt was
recognized by a crowd of a half dozen
drunken soldiers.
They stopped him but he refused to
be interviewed. The soldiers decided to
take him by force and Vanderbilt took
to his heels. This urged the soldiers
on and they were Joined by a lot of
citizens who pummelled the fleeing
ma freely and let fly many stones
and sticks. Vanderbilt ran into a candy
factory at the corner of Alabama and
Pryor streets. A large crowd collected
about the store and when the little
man appeared at the door with two
officers, who had been sent for, the
cry of Spanish spy" was set up and 1t
did not take the mob long TO q the
cry of Kill him." Shoot him. Hang
him." The noise served to bring others
into the procession which swelled to
large proportions and by the time the
police station was reached 1000 people
were at the heels of the officers.
When the station was reached, the
officers rushed the little fellow into the
guard office and the great iron gates
were quickly closed to keep the mob
back. Officers ran to the front doors
and stood guard at them.
They turned me out his morning
said Vanderbilt excitedly, and I am
not a Spanish spy, but an American
citizen and a Cuban general. See,
have the stars on my coat sleeves to
, show my rank in the army"
Vanderbilt was bleeding from three
or four POUNDS on his face and throat.
One soldier had cut at him with a
knife and left a bloody mark on his
forehead. Another had grabbed him
by the throat and left the print OF
his fingers. He claims to be a relative
Of Cornelius Vanderbilt and SAYS his
mother is at present in New York.

joining in the chase of the murderer.
Officers from the city went out with
bloOdhounds to join in the pursuit. II
the meantime, it is said, the negro wo-
man who was found tieo in the woods
and maltreated made a statement as
to the guilty negro and pointed out
one of those most diIigent in search
of supposed criminal and told where
the bloody X could be found. Though
harply believing her story, so incred-
liable it seemed, a part of the pur-
suing party went to investigate and
found the bloody weapon and blood
stained clothes of the murderer con-
cealed in an abandoned we'll on the
McGarrah plantation, just as the wo-
mar described. The guilty wretch was
quickly taken into custody and per-
sons of the pursuing party called in.
After thoroughly satisfying themselves
of his guilt, the black brute was strung
up and his body riddled with bullets.
The officers who had joined in the
chase We're not present at the lynch

another trail and they knew nothing
of the affair until long afterward. How
ever, they could have done nothing
had they been present, as the outraged
people of the community were bent on
avenging the double murder committed
in their midst and nothing could have
stopped them.
The body of the dead negro was left
swinging to the tree, where hundreds
of people viewed it during the after
noon.

General PaudO Flees From Cuba.

Washington, August 20.-The state
department received a cablegram to-
day from Consul Thompson at Pro-
gresso, Mexico, stating that General
Pando, the Spanish general second i'll
command to General Blanco, had ar
rived in cognito at Progresso yester-
day, on the Mexican steamer Cam
peche. The consul says General Pan
do seeks to enter Havana or Bata-
bano, Cuba, on the British steamer
Guillermo Lopez.
When last heard of General Pando
was alleged TO be in command Of the
Spanish forces at Manzanillo, near
Santiago, although at that time it was
asserted at Havana that he was still
there. With the cessation of hostili-
ties there ppears to be no reason why
he should not go to Havana or Ba-
tabanO.
