STREET MUSICIANS.
The Number Increased Yesterday BY the
Appearance Of Two New Combinations.

The Number Increased Yesterday BY the
Appearance Of Two New Combinations.
Worcester has its full quota OF
street musicians under ordinary Cir
cumstances, but during the last few
days the melody producers have in
creased to noticeable degree. A blind
woman, who plays an accordion, a cou-
pie of blind men who play accordions
and tin whistles, with a transient hand
organ or two, made up the list until
yesterday. when a brand new aggrega-
ton struck town.
One division was made up of three
men, two of whom played a sort Of
fageolet, while the third, who deserved
more salary than his fellows if phys
ical labor was taken into the question,
operated variety of bagpipes, brass
drum and cymbals and bell ringing
arrangement. This combination APP
peared at Harrington corner about 5
O'Clock last night, but people didn't
seem to enthuse, and they moved on.
Still another combination was cou-
pie of small boys, who looked as
though lately landed from some immi-
grant ship. One Of the youngsters
played an old-fashioned accordion
while the other called forth admiration
by his deft handling of a tamborine.
Taken altogether, it was a great day
for itinerant musicians.

P. |. SMITH INJURED.
Knocked From Elec-
trio Car on Broad
way, New York.
CARELESS DRIVING THE CAUSE.
The Driver Has Been Ar
rested - Mr.. Smiths
Condition Serious.

Phillip Lee Smith, son of the late j.
Edwin Smith, was probably seriously
injured yesterday at West Broadway
ana Broome street, New York, in a col
lision between an uptown car and a
wagon loaded heavily with boxes. The
car was bound north and was filled with
passengers. AS the car approached with
q fair rate of speed, Henry Lowenstein
undertook to drive between a wagon
coming in the opposite direction and the
car The horse suddenly swerved over
towards the car and crashed full into
Il.
Mr.. Smith, who was a passenger on
the car, tried to escape, but was not
quick enough. One of the shafts on the
wagon was impaled in his left breast
and he fell to the ground. He was TAX
en- to 81 Vincents Hospital in an am
bulances where Dr. Wren, who made
an examination, pronounced his in
juries very serious.
Mr.. Smith was 26 years old, and
graduated from Harvard in 1897. At
present he is in charge of r. A. Day
q Co.'S brokerage office, at Wall
street, q position he has held for a
year. He was in Worcester 10 days
ago on visit.
Although the car was crowded at the
time of the collision, only one other
man, Peter Patterson, was injured. He
escaped with slight cut over his eye
The collision was largely due to the
carlessness OF Driver Lowenstein, and
he has been arrested.

sension over the question Of site. too.
cooled the ardor of many of the intend
ed subscribers to the fund, and finally,
without a dollar in the treasury, the
matter was left IN the hands Of self
appointed committee, where it has since
apparently fallen into peaceful slum-
Der.
In 1895 Senator Alfred s. Roe, who
has since the first worked hard and
faithfully for the realization OF the
Devens memorial project, obtained the
passage OF bill authorizing the cotzfl-
ty commissioners to raise by taxation
and to appropriate the sum Of $1,000 for
the Devens statue The bill was put
through after deal of effort under
suspension Of the rules. The county
commissioners, in accordance with this
act of the legislature, stand ready and
willing to appropriate the money at
once upon the raising Of $4,000 addi-
tional.
When the plans Of the new court
house were drawn, in sympathy with
the movement, the county commission
ers provided a suitable pedestal for
the reception of the movement. In the
centre of the broad stairway, rs feet in
width, which will extend from the level
of Main street to Court street, there
will be spacious block of granite, on
which the statue may be placed Work
which will end with the construction of
this approach to the court house will
be commenced this morning. II this
location is not deemed suitable for the
Devens memorial, the county commits
sioners will make provision for placing
it on the grass plot at the side of the
new court house structure and in front
of the probate building.
The question of appropriate site,
therefore, seems adequately taken care
of. All needed now is the men and the
money to accomplish the enterprise.
The county stands authorized to give
$4,000, the city could easily be prevailed
upon to give like amount, and $4,000
to be raised by popular subscription
would complete the amount necessary
for a suitable statue.
The committee having the memorial
in hand has $153 on deposit as the re-
suit Of five years Of effort OF this
amount SOB was raised by a lecture In
Mechanics hall, and the balance was
subscribed by friend of General Dew
ems. Several spasmodic attempts have

SLEEPING MIDST FLOWERS.
The Body of IngersoII Will Be cremated
Today.

New York, July 26.-Walston, the
beautiful home at Dobbs Ferry, where
Col. Ingersoll died, was quiet place
today. The body of the dead agnostic
lay on the fower-covered bier. Only
the widow and daughters sat near; all
others kept away.
Three hundred letters were received
today from all over the country, most
Of them from intimate friends. Among
those who sent letters were j. H. Man
ley of Maine, President Lawrence Of
the Lotus Club, Mrs Elizabeth Cady
Stanton, who wrote a beautiful letter
Of hope and sympathy; Octave Thanet
and owen Miller president of the Am
erican Federation of Musicians.
Col. IngersolPs body will be cremated
tomorrow. The coffin was sent to
Dobbs Ferry today, but it remained all
day at the local undertaker's. 1t is a
plain, black, cloth covered coffin, with
out ornament, handles or name plate.
1t Is simply a box in which the body
is to be carried to the crematory at
Fresh Pond, L. /.
The body will be transferred from the
bier to the coffin at a. m. The hearse
will start down the long hill and a
special train will be in waiting at the
station to take the party to New York
city. From New York city to Fresh
Pond is but brief journey.
The funeral urn has already been Sc
lected by George Grey Barnard, the
sculptor, and the dead mans friend
This is only temporary, but it will

the ashes shall not be away from her
for a single hour.

There exists a marked sentiment
that the time is ripe for the rejuvena-
ton of the movement to erect a monu-
ment in memory of Gen. Charles Dew
ems.
For five years the project has smol-
dered and slumbered to be occasionally
famed into momeltary fame, only to
relapse for want of fuel or because
dampened by disagreement or dissen-
sion.
Every available argument to delay or
hamper the immediate erection of the
statue of Worcesters illustrious SOL
dier-jurist is now removed, and if ever
Worcester is to see one of her most ia
nous sons equally honored in his home
as he is in the capital of the common
wealth, all omens were never more ia
vorable than now for the accomplish
ment of the undertaking.
The present movement is precipitat-
ed by the lowering of the grade of
Court hill. When that is done, and
when the grounds about the new county
court house are graded, the last oppor-
tunity for objection to immediate move
ment is removed. The opportunity has
come for decisive action. Sentiment is
ripe for it.
When the project was discussed for
the first time strongly, in 1894, and
when it seemed that the necessary sub
scription for the cause could be OBJ
tanned without extreme effort or any
considerable delay, there arose at once
a discussion ON the question of site.
The Franklin square location was first
advocated, and so much confidence was
entertained by some of the promoters Of
the movement that it was proposed to
purchase the Scott building and to set
the Devens monument in the midst of
a broad plaza in front of the new post
office.
Later, sentiment turned in favor of a
location before the city hall, and the
advocates of one or the other side ar
gued the point at issue until the very
blood was Slapped from the commenda-
BILE plan to erect the statue, and the
first consideration was lost sight of in
the cloud of objection raised.
From both of these locations senti-
nent finally turned to the selection Of

WEYLER'S THREAT.
Revolution, He Says,
Is Imminent and
In the Air.
CLAIMS IT CLEARS ATMOSPHERE
Reproved By Dato For Fail
ure to Put Down
Cubans.

Madrid, July 26.-The discussion of
the army bill in the senate today led to
an exciting scene. Gen. Weyler, argu-
ing against any reduction of the
strength of the army warned the gov
eminent that the present situation
made revolution highly probable,
since it had never been so easy for ar
my and the people to make common
cause
He himself, he said, had never
thought of heading a rising, but it
must be confessed that revolution some
times cleared the political atmosphere
and accomplished the work of genera
ton.
Senior Dato, minister of the interior,
replying, severely censured Gen. Wey-
Ter, declaring that general who, with
100000 men, had failed to suppress the
Cuban rebellion, had no right to make
such threats, and that any attempt at
revolution, no matter by whom, would
be proceeded against with the utmost
rigor of the law.
The senators warmly applauded Sc
nor Dato's speech. The army bill was

ernments Over Provinces and Islands. b
Washington, July 26.-It is stated at
the war department that Gen. Otis has
sent no communication to the depart
ment regarding the organization of any
provisional governments in the islands
or provinces, but it is presumed that
he may do so if conditions warrant.
Gen. Otis is acting under instructions
from the president, dated Dec. 81 1898
These instructions said that the de-
struction of the Spanish feet, followed
by the reduction of Manila practically
effected the conquest of the Philippine
Islands, and suspension of Spanish
sovereignty. They directed that the
military government of the United
States maintained in Manila may be
extended with all possible dispatch to
the whole of the district ceded to the
United States by the treaty of peace.
The military commander was directed
to announce that we come not as in
vaders or conquerers, but as friends"
Those who submitted were to be
promised support and protection; "all
others will be brought within the law
full rule we have assumed, with firm
ness if need be, but without severity as
far as may be possible"
Suggestions were made as to the gov
eminent of the ceded territory, and the
rights Of property, taxes, etc. This let
ter of the president, together with the
instructions Of Secretary Hay to the
Philippine commission, are the basis of
governments which are to be estab-
lished in the Philippines

ished business before them.
When the freight handlers were ac-
corded an increase in wages, the
brakemen aired their differences. The
men want several concessions Through
freight brakemen demand a limit of 10
hours on their days work, and an in
crease of rs cents per day in wages,
making $2.25 the price for a days
work. The end passenger brakelnen
ask for the same wages. All the freight
brakemsn ask for 20 cents an hour for
overtime work. and the rear end men

The officials have been working along

The formal request of the brakemen
has been made to the officials and the
time for consideration has been placed
at August l. Local employees of the
road will not be dragged into the trou-
