STEAMER CUT IN TWO
Her CrSW and Probably All PaSSe1-
 gers Saved.

Tacoma, Wash, April 23-The steamship Glenogle crashed into the steamer City of Kingston about 4:3G o'clock this morning off Browns point, cutting the City of Kingston in two just aIbaft the boilers. Twelve passengers and the crew of the Kings ton were saved through the prompt action of the officers of the Glenogle and the Kingston and two ships Iyi1s: in the harbor.
 So far as known no Iiv5s were lose Rev. Horace H. Chapman, rector Of Trinity church, occupied Q state room struck by the Glenogles prov and was pinned in the wreckage for sav- eral minutes, only being released by the parting of the ship. His forehead was cut slightly. but he was not cari- ously hurt.
 The Genogle signalled the Kingston to pass outside and had thls been done the accident would not have oc- cured. The Kingston's officers were probably unable to dis tingu.sh the signals The story is told of one of the pass engers of the Kingston to the effect that there were eight men seen in the smoking room Of the Kingston just before ,ke collision. It is said that only three Of these were seen after ward but there is no confirmation of the story.
 The Glenogle cut the Kingston in two and the two parts quickly drifted apart. A purser and a night watch man went through the decks awaken ing the sleeping passengers and the crew. Many of the crew escaped only in their night clcl.hes, while those sleeping more lightly or nearer the deck were able to seize their clothes.

 of Inhumanify Within Century.

Newman, Ga, April 23.-In the presence of nearly 2,OOO people who sent aloft yells of defiance and shouts of joy, Sam Hose, a negro, who com mrtted two of the basest acts in the history of crime, was burned at a stake in public read one and one half miles from this dity. The torch was applied to the pyre after the negro was deprived of his ears, fingers and ether portions of his anatomy.
 The negro plelded pitifully for his Fife While the mUtila,ion was going on, but ha stood the ordeal of fire with surprising fortitude Before the body was cool .t.was cut to pieces and the bones crushed into small bits. The negro's heart was cut into several pieces, as was also his liver.
 Those unable to obtain the ghastly relics paid their more fortunate pos sessors exsravagant sums for them. SmaH Ireces of bone vert for 25 cents and bit of liver crisply cooked sold for 10 cent The mob was com posed Of the citizens of Newman, Griffin, Palmetto and other towns in the country round about Newman.

GOVERNMENT VICTORY IN SPAIN
Results Of the Election for Members
 of the Cortes.

Madrid, April 23.-Tt is a foregone conclusion that the government has secured majority in the next cortes.
 This is in accorda nee with the Spanish custom, but the ministerial papers say that the government was more impartial than it's predecessors in conducting the elections, with the view to giving all tle parties a fair share of representation.
 The returns are still incomplete, but it is known that Senor Castelar, was defeated in Murcia by the supporters of Senor Sagasta.
 The Sagastinos have elected 80 deputies; the Gamacists, 20; the re- publicans, 20; the Tetuanists, 12; the Car.ists, 4, and the independents, F. The rest are Silvelists.

 'The mere notion that any exten- sive change in the policy in the Phil ippines for which America is about to pay Spain G5.O0O, 900, is to follow the check, if # be a check, of General Lawton, is not, of course, to be enter tained for a moment America is on her trial in the eyes of the wO.ld as an imperial power.

ner They were taken to the Jefferson Market court and remanded for fur ther investigation.
 Meanwhile the postoffice authorities had been informed of the arrest. They recalled at once the theft of a mali pouch on the night of April II at tho New York Central station, in Buffalo The pouch had contained certified checks and drafts aggregating in value almost $10,000 The pouch had been stolen by man in a railway mail ser vice uniform
 Bell confessed to the police that he had taken part in that robbery. On Smith was found trunk check issued by the Delaware, Laekawanna & West ern railroad, and when the detectives procured the trunk they found in it a mail carriers uniform and a number of certified checks and drafts Both men weakened when they learned of this discovery, and told enough to convince the police thar they had worked clever game. The scheme was to have one of the par present at a station when mail pouch was thrown off. It was usually a com paratively easy matter Io pick up the pouch, shoulder it and carry it off to be rified at leisure. Smith, the police say, furnished the brains for the pair, and obtained a marvellous amount Of information as to when and where a man in uniform could pick up the mail pouches.
 Smith and Bell when arraigned in the Jefferson Market police court, were discharged and immediately re- arrested by Postoffice Inspectors Boyle, Jacobs and Leland. They were taken before Commissioner Shields and were remanded by him to the fed eral authorities at Buffalo

BUY AGUINALDO ALLIES.
MT. Andrew Clarke Describes the Plan
 He Will Submit to Congress

London, April 23.-Mr. Andrew Clarke was interviewed today regard ing his report about the organization of the Straits Settlement, which will be laid before the American congress- He recommended that the Americans discover whence supplies are reaching Aguinaldo, and that they convert such agencies into trade agencies, which would cooperate with Americans in settling the troubles by convincing them that there would be better out look for their capital in this direction than by causing turmoil Land own eiS in the islands should be assured that they would not be disturbed.
 Probably the best thing would be to buy out the religious orders, after securing the sanction of the pope, and attach the secular clergy in some ca pacity to the administration, so as to secure their interest The good will of the natives must be secured and carefully selected American residents appointed to office.
 The Daily News, commenting on General Lawton's retirement, says it may not yet be too late for some ar rangement by which Aguina1do can be appointed caretaker in behalf of the United state Narior landlord.

DEFENDS AMERICA'S POLICY
Organ of Cuban Colony in Mexico
 Speaks PIainIy.

City of Mexico, April 23.-EI Conti- ban colony here, defends the entrance of Ehe United States into the Philip pines as being based not only on con- quest, but on necessity, defending the immensa commercial interests of the American people in China and Japan and denouncing the hyFocritical at titude of the European press. saying that had Spain gained the victory all Americans N-ould be the sport of Eu rope to be divided among the great powers. It declares the United States entered on war with Spain inspired by the highest motives of humanity to bring to an end an lirtolerabla condi- tion of affairs, and as a result of the brilliant incidents of that war Manila fell into American hands.
 The paper predicts that when the Americans have placed their flag all over the Philippines the unhappy pee pie of those islands will be regenerat- ed and will enjoy an era of prosperity the laboring people having fair wages and the land owners securing just re- turn for their endeavors and capital employed.
 The more popular parers here, not organs of the clerical party, show their hatred for Spain and sympathize wroh the Cubans in their hope for ul- innate independence.
