SITUATION IN STAIN,
Official Declaration That the Country is
 Quiet--Martial Law,

Madrid Feb. 15-midnight.-The min- ister of the interior, Senor Ugarte, ir the course of an interview, asserted that calm reigned in all the provinces and that, if the same pacific behavior of the people continued until after the carni- val next week, martial law would be discontinued in Madrid and throughout Spain, except in Catalonia.
 General Weyler says that for the pres- ent rigorous martial law will be main- tained, but that if the same tranquility continues as has characterized the last two days he will soon issue a milder proclamation.
 Fl Heraldo publishes a proclamation by General Weyler saying that he will do his best to avoid interfering with the powers of the civil authorities, but that as martial law has been proclaimed his duty is to maintain order, Independent of all political questions. Madrid re- mains perfectly calm, although the talk of probable change of ministry after the carnival is very strong. El Dia has been suppressed. Two persons were killed and several others wounded yes- terday in Granada

NO TOTE ON SHIPPING BILL,
Senator Teller Frankly Declares He W i'll
 Not Consent.

Washington, Feb. 15.-That the oppo- sition to the shipping bill in the Senate will not permit vote to be taken on the measure at the present session was made clear during the closing hour of to-day's session. For several days it has been evident that it would be diffi- crlt to gain unanimous consent to take a vote upon the measure, but not until late to-day was the frank assertion made that vote could not be had. At the conclusion of several hours consid- eration of the bill MT. Teller of Cobra do, in an impassioned speech declared that he would not consent to any agree ment to vote.
 The statement by the Colorado senator elicited a sharp response from MT. AL drich of Rhode Island, and drew the fire of MT. Chandler, of New Hampshire, who asserted that the position of the opposition was preposterous. MT. Han na of Ohio, replied to MT. Teller in forceful speech, in the course of which he became impassioned in his deunci- ation of the methods employed by the opposition to defeat the measure. Ear Her in the day the agricultural appro- priation bill was passed after being un- der discussion for nearly four days.

COMMONS DISCUSSES VAR.
An Aide de Camp of Lord Roberts Tells Something of BOer Methods.

London, Feb. 15.-In the house of commons to- day the debate was resum- ed on the address in reply to the speech from the throne at the opening of par lament The discussion ranged from hospitals in South Africa to arsenicated beer. The principal subject, however, was the governments war policy in South Africa. Many members spoke MT. Labouchere elicited some opposition cheering by the remark: Tt is d noble determina tion on the part of the Boers to incur all risks rather than submit to a foreign power and l honor them for it."
 Lord Stanley, conservative member for West Houghton, who was aide-de camp for Lord Roberts in South Africa and press censor, said: T do not think any one can regard the Boers as devoid of honor when We consider the human ity they have always shown toward the British sick and wounded, but the Boers have sense of honor peculiar to them selves They do not think it dishonora- ble to fire under a white flag. We do. The new way of dealing with Boers,

AN INrERrIEW MYTH KRUGER.
Stli Hopeful of Victory = European Visit
 a Bitter Disappointme

London, Feb. 15.-The Pail Mall Mag azne will publish, February IS, an in terview with MT. Kruger, in part as 1 follows: Will no one arbitrate? Will no one give us a chance of defending ourselves? We may have done wrong. ly. We have our faults and our weak nesses. We declared war, but our handu were forced and we can prove it. Get some one to judge this between Eng land and ourselves. But the Lord will help us in the end. We shall win. ] do not know how or when, but we shall win at last"
 MT. Kruger 0ays the Transvaal offered more reforms in one week than an older country would make in forty years, giving in on all points almost to the uttermost, but that the uttermost was seized upon as stumbling block. Re- ferring to his reception in Europe which has bitterly disappointed him, MT. Kruger says: T care nothing for flowers, nothing, nothing. The people who send them mean we'll and I am grateful; but I care nothing for them. What I want is a fair hearing If they

 When asked why he came to Europe, he said to the interviewer: T could not go out with the commanders as MT. Steyn can. I am too old, but may be of some use here"
 Regarding Mrs. Kruger, he said: T am sorry for her too. I have deep sorrow for her, but I have far more sorrow for my country. My wife has her children Six are still with her. They were left with her in her home. Two of my sons have died on the battlefield Two were captured. I believe two more are dead also as I have not heard from them for two months and I know they were in the thick of the fight. Thirty-one sons and grandsOns I have in the field yet, but I could not go on commando I have not heard from my wife for sixteen days, but she has six children with her and she is not to be pitied."

Twenty Passengers Hurt.

Pittsburg, Pa., Feb. 15.-Car 25 on the Hamilton avenue division of the Con solidated Traction company jumped the track tonight at the corner of Fifth and Hamilton avenues and toppled over against the curb, completely wrecking the car and injuring twenty or more passengers, four of them seriously but not fatally. The car coming down the Hamilton avenue grade just at the junction of Fifth avenue became un- manageable on account of slippery rails and literally skated down to the turn, where it jumped the track and crashed into the curb, when it toppled over.

 New York, Feb. 15.-The annual din- ner of the Yale Alumni of New York was given tonight under the auspices of the Yale club at Sherry's. With the exception of the famous athletic dinner which took place over ten years ago, 1t was the largest Yale banquet ever held. Between four and five hundred persons were present. Among the guests of honor were the members of the football team that played against Harvard and Princeton, and the victorious crew of last spring. The decorations were ex- tremely simple, Yale men feeling that certain numerals represented more to them than rows of orchids. Tn num- erals explain themselves: '1701-1o1; 2S- 0; 29-5; 8 boat lengths.'' The dinner was presided over by Thomas Thacher, president of the Yale club. The speak, CTS were President Hadley of Yale, Sec retary Anson Phelps Stokes, jr, Amos F. Wilder, Judge Henry E. Rowlands George Huntress, Colonel N G. Osborn, Clifford Pinchot.

BITTER WORDS 7N REICHsTAG.
Herr Rebel Delivers n Fierce Tirade on
 China Campaign.


 Berlin, Feb 15.-During the debate on the third reading of the China bill in the Reichstag to-day the minister ot war, General von Gossler, replying to Herr Bebel's attacks on the conduct of the troops in China and Field Marshal Count von Waldersees methods of war fare, said Herr Bebel's statements were without foundation. They ought to be grateful to Field Marshal von Walder- see that, with his devotion to duty and high intelligence, he.had accepted the position entrusted to him by the em- peror and had established certain amount of order in China.
 Herr Bebels speech was the bitterest that had been heard for many years in the Reichstag. The war in China, he said, was the 'meanest and most shameful which Prussia has waged in two hun fred years" He read a num- Der of private letters from China in SUD- port of this assertion, declaring that it was almost incredible that such besti- ality, lower than that among beasts, can survive in Christian Germany"
 But, of course,' exclaimed Herr Be bel, when the injunction went forth from the kaiser that no pardon should be granted it was no wonder that the troops behaved like Huns" Herr Bebel was repeatedly called to order by the president of the Reichstag, Count von Ballestrom General von Gosser prom ised to prosecute all papers which print ed letters from China deroga tory to the German troops.

NO PRIZE FIGHT IN OHIO
THE JEFFRIES-R RUHLIN MEETING
 OFFICIALLY DECLARED OFF
Action of Judge Hollister in Issuing a Permanent Injunction DclI.,itoiy
 Settles the Matter-The Decision Reaches Over the Entire State-FOrfett Money Drawn from Cincinnati Bank.

Cincinnati, Feb. 15 Plans for the
 meeting of Jeffries and Ruhlin in the
 ring here tonight were officially quash-
 ed this afternoon, following the injunc-
 ton issued to-day by Judge Hollister. Managers Brady and Madden drew the
 forfeit money from the Atlas National
 bank this morning. No time or place
 was even suggested for future meet ing between the heavyweights
 Both managers issued cards announce l ing their regret at the outcome of the affair. Brady and Jeffries announced their willingness to give benefit here | for the Saengerfest Athletic association, but no date was set. Both declared they will never enter into another agreement for a championship contest without guarantee for protection un- der the law as well as financially Steps were taken this afternoon to wind up the affairs of the Saengerfest Athletic association, and all prospect of appeals from the decision of Judge Hollister had disappeared.
 Previous to the application for per- manent injunction and when the gen. eral opposition to the contest included Governor Nash and the full power of the state the only thing on which the promoters depended was the permit that had been issued by Mayor Fleisch- mann for the proposed contest tonight. That permit expired at midnight, and its renewal is not expected by anyone. Judge Hollister to-day indorsed the en- try of the decree forbidding the contest. A significant feature of the entry OH Athletic association is enjoined also from accepting hereafter from the may or in the future a permit for a sparring match, q glove contest or prize fight. The entry Is made so sweeping as to apply to all such events in Hamilton county and elsewhere in Ohio
 Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 15.-According to Attorney General Sheets, William Brady has abandoned all connection with pugilism Mir. Sheets stated to- day when Judge Hollister announced his decision in the injunction proceed ings yesterday Brady turned to him and said: This ends my management of such enterprises. believe the oppo- stion to all contests of this kind Is all fanaticism, but popular sentiment is overwhelmingly against it and there is but one thing to do, and that is to cuit.''

FOREIGN ENVoYs DETERMINED.
Declare Their Decision Regarding
 Punish m emt Is irrevocable.

| DeCInfe Inelf DtCAsAON
 Punishment Is frrevocable. | Pekin, Feb. 15.-The Chinese peace
 plenipotentiaries nave replied to the
 latest telegram from the imperial court
 that the decision of the foreign envoys
 with respect to the punishment of the
 guilty is irrevocable although the sen-
 tence upon General Tung Flu Hsiang
 can be suspended until such time as | it comes within the power of the court to place him in restraint, when his
 death will be demanded
 Although there have been no official communications on the subjects be- tween the envoys and the Chinese plen- ipotentiaries, there have been long un- official consultations between the latter and M. De Giers and Sir Ernest Satow, the Russian and British ministers. A definite reply from the court is not expected before the end of the new year celebrations, at least ten days off, but the envoys believe that the court must yild.
 Count vonl Waldersee has issued a formal denial of the published state ment that the German troops are leav- ing China. He says he could not move one without instruction from Berlin and that they have not been received.
 London, Feb. 16.-Dr. Morrison, in a dispatch to the Times from Pekin,, dat ed Thursday, describes the international scheme for the defense of the legation quarters as exhibiting an exaggerated fear of the strength of disarmed China. He says:
 "The scheme is equivalent to the con- struction of International forts along side the imperial palace. After giving details of elaborate defensive works which will be begun forthwith appar- ently with the idea that the court will be encouraged to return to Pekin, he comments upon the seizure of various properties for this purpose. The 1tal- ian legation with staff of two persons, has seized the imperial maritime GUS toms buildings and garden which for many years were occupied by Sir Rob- ert Hart and his staff. pr. Morrison things this poor return for the bray cry of Hart and his people in the de- fense of the legations during the siege.'"
 The correspondent concluu=s as IoI- lows: After reading this remarkable defence scheme Lord Lansdowne must admit that the logical outcome is the building of similar fortresses for the protection of the representatives of the various nations at the treaty ports. He will also see that if the court should elect to remain in the province of Shen Si It's decision would not be wholly in- eXcusable'' {
 Tien Tsin, Feb. 15.-It is asserted here that the real reason for the deadlock in Pekin is difference of opinion between the foreign envoys and the military au- thoritiee, the former favoring a with drawal of the troops to Tien Tsin and the latter urging forward movement" It is regarded as possible that a certain power may advance independently, should the deadlock continue.
