NEW COTTAGERS.

One transaction that has caused no lit
tie regret in Newport society was the
sub-leasing of the beautiful Henry As
tor Carey estate to f. B. Swayne, of
New York. For several years this house
has been occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Hen
ry L: Sloane, and the fact that it has
now been disposed of is taken to be con-
elusive evidence that Mr.. and Mrs.
Sloane have really decided to live apart.
There was a rumor that George Gould
was to take a cottage at Newport for
the season, but this is not a fact. Mrs.
Gould does not care for the society that
makes its summer home here, and Lady
Mary Sackville is not a sufficiently i'm
portant parsonage to carry her hostess
into the exclusive set. 1t is probable,

Washington, June 3.-The war de-
partment has received a very interest
ing report from Lieut.. Col. John w.
Pope, chief quartermaSter in the Philip
pines on the subject of the military
transportation service during the war
with the Tagals. Among its features is
account of how the Twentieth Kan
sas established a train service from
Caloocan on short notice.
transportation says Col Pope, there
has up to the present not existed
single untitled want, and to the credit
of the -egimental quartermaster and
commissary officers may be pointed the
fact that on Sunday eevning, February
5, the men We're all served their rations,
and in some cases shelter tents and
blankets, where they lay on the fighting
line, within an hour of the cessation of
fire. and these men had advanced from
the city carrying nothing but their arms
and ammunition. When Caloocan was
taken, February 10, there was found at
gines and about fifty passenger coaches
and over 100 freight and fiat cars. An
efficient train crew and corps of me-
chanics was organized with Corporal
Haisch, Twentieth Kansas infantry. as
chief engineer, which assembled four
of the engines, and on February IL a
train service was established, running
two trains from CaloOcan to Manila
and three trains from Manila to Ca1oocan
daily, greatly simplifying the transport
problem. The steam tramway was

soon it was found that the railroad sup
piled all needs, and the tram service

Manila, June 12-The funeral of Cap
tain Henry Nichols, the commander of
the United States double-turreted mon
itor Monadnock who died from sun
stroke, took place at Cavite with ap
propriate naval ceremonies. The Of
ficers of the fleet were present and the
flags on all the vessels were half-maSt-
ed.
The sudden death of Captain Nichols
was particularly sad because it occurred
which he had hoped and worked for
months was about to be realized, name
ly, the capture of ParanaQue and its oc-
cupation by the American forces. The
Monadnock has been lying off Para
naque for two months past. under fire
from the rebels almost daily. The heat
there has been intense and the officers
and men of the Mona adnock suffered
greatly The commander-in-chief Of
fered to retire the Monadnock from this
trying duty and replace her by another
ship, but Captain Nichols preferred to
remain declaring that he did not want
to leave his post until gParanaQue fell
and the coast from there to Cavite was
cleared of rebels. The fheat on Satur-
day was most severe and the monitor
was engaged all day in shelling the
trenches at Paranaque and the rebels
fleeing south through Las Pinas, and
also watching the American troops
closing in upon the towns. CAPTAIN
Nichols was overcome by the heat at
noon and retired to his cabin, where he
received frequent reports of the opera
tions and gave directions for several
hours. He became much worse at
o'clock, lost consciousness and expired
before his death he expressed gratifica-
tion at the way events were progress

got the rebels there at last"

TORNADO IN IOWA.
Four Members of an Iowa
Farmers Family Are Killed.

Sioux City. Ia, June IA tornado
at $50 o'clock yesterday afternoon
struck two miles southeast of the little
town of Salix, sixteen miles from here,
and killed three people outright and one
more will die. The dead are: John
Malloy, father; Mrs. John Malloy, his
wife; Harry Malloy, a 16-year-old son.
Miss Bessie Malloy, the 1S-year-odl
daughter, had her skull fractured and
is nos expected to live. Thomas and
Pat Mauoy are badly hurt. No other
member of the family of father, mother,
seven sons and daughters was injured
The family was at supper when the
funnel shaped cloud was first seen and
Dick Malloy told his parents to so to
the cellar He ran to the home Of Mrs
Hassel a widow who lives across the
road, TO warn her and seven children
He took them to the cellar and the
one. He had to hold on to the boy by
the legs as he was being drawn up by
the suction of the wind.
But the Malloy family across the road
only remained in the cellar about five
minutes and the father suggested that
the cloud was only rain. They came up
and in an instant the house was de-
molished.
The dead and injured members were
scattered among the ruins.
The conductor of a freight train saw
it got into the storm, and when he
reached the town he held the train
long enough to bring the injured to the
hospital in Sioux City.

Water in Bennett is Lower Than

Steamers on the Banks Can't
Be Launched.

Skaguay, Alaska, June 5, via Seattle.
Wn-, June IA heavy wind and snow
storm has prevailed from the summit
clear down to Lake Bennett for several
days. The weather is now moderating.
Wind has broken up the ice in Lake
Bennett, leaving open water through
which some scows and small boats
started down the lake. One large scoW
loaded with potatoes and several thous-
and dollars worth of merchandise and
provisions was caught in the ice and
crushed. The men were all saved. but
they had narrow escape. Their
names could not be ascertained.
Lake Summit was frozen solid Friday
night, June 2, so that wagons crossed
it in safety.
The water in Lake Bennett is said to
be three feet lower this year than last
and eight inches too low for launching
steamers now on the bank
Cariboo crossing, at the lower end of
Lake Bennett has only few inches of
water in it, and boats cannot possibly
cross 1t unless the water rises several
feet.
No communication has been had with
Atlin for several weeks and none can
be had until navigation opens and per-
mits CT boats going around the lakes.

An Imitator of Martin Thorne
In New York.

New York, June 1.-TWO miles and
a quarter from the place in the Mar
rows where a portion of a human body
was found on Saturday, a portion of
the corpse was taken out of the water
by men who were unloading a steamer
a a dock at the foot of FOrty-second
street, Brooklyn. The portion first found
was from the middle chest line to a few
inches below the knees. The part recov-
cred fitted to the upper line division and
extended to the head at the bridge of
the nose. The chin and mouth are un-
mutilated and on the lip was a sandy
moustache of medium length.
The top of the skull including the
right ear was cut off. The left ear is
intact.
The right arm is missing, severed at
the shoulder. The left arm and hand,
however, are attached.
Like the first part of the body found
the newly found part was without COW
ering or wrapping of any kind.

FITZ GETS THE BIG END.
Loser of the Fight Makes More
Money Than the Winner.

New York June 1.-THE division of

Island Sporting club and half to the
contestants. The amount taken in at
the door was $S5.27O.
Half of the admission money amount
ed to $42, ,635 OF this Fitzsimmons re-
ceived 60 per cent, or $25. .5S1, and JEFF
fries 40 per cent, or S17,O54. The purse
said to have been offered by the club
was $4,000. In the event of Jeffries
winning this was to be equally divided.
thereby making FitzSimmOnS' total re-
ceipts S35. .5S1 and Jeffries' S27. .054.
1t is declared that FitZsimmOns would
not make the match until he had been
guaranteed the large end of the purse
and the gate money, owing to his repu-
tation and position. Manager Brady
accepted 40 per cent for his man, be-
lieving that in the long run such an
amount and a decision were worth
more than 60 per cent and a defeat.

screams have been so loud as to be
