SEA FIGHT OFFPANAMA.
TWO GOVERNMENT WARSHIPS PUT TO
SEA AND GIVE BATTLE.

Panama. July 19.-The insurgent gunboats
Padilla and Darien appeared last night between
Flamenco and Ottique Island. Governor Salazar
thereupon ordered the government gunboats
Chucuito and Clapet to put to sea and meet
them Heavy cannonading is taking place at
this hour, 10 a. m. The United States special
service steamer Ranger is coming into the bay.
Great alarm prevails in this city. The intrench-
ments are full Of soldiers.
The cannonading between the government and
the revolutionary vessels continued until
o'clock this afternoon. II heaviest at 10
o'clock this morning, At o'clock the Darien
was seen in tow of the Padilla, and II is be-
lieved she had been hit. The government fleet
was handicapped by the absence Of the gunboat
Boyaca, the keel of which being repaired,
and it is thought probable that this fact was
known by the insurgent General Herrera, who
decided TO attack Panama in order to prevent
the government from helping General Beru
troops at Aqua Dulce.
The United States steamer Ranger, which re-
turned here at 10 o'clock from Chiriqui, came
within the line Of fire. During a part of the
heavy firing she was back of Flamenco Island.
A representative of The Associated Press was
Informed by United States Consul Gudger that
American interests at Panama had not been
materially interfered with.
The government gunboat Boyaca, which is at
La Boca- hurriedly completed repairs, and is
going out at o'clock. The Padilla has gone.
The Ranger left the bay after the I Padlila

tionary gunboat No explanation is offered or

Jewels, he said:
I think that my client would look very much
better with them on and propose to have them
returned to her" This would seem to mean
that the return of the jewels was to be made by
the Strong family. Mr.. Friend said that he ex-
pected to have the safety deposit vault in which
the jewels were stored opened on Monday and

some New York woman
1t was learned last night that on Wednesday
evening a messenger from May Yohe called at
the ShattuCk home, at No. 10 Washington
Square North, to inquire If Mrs. Strong was
really ILL., This messenger was stopped on the
steps by Officer Mennell of Holiness police.

his errand to the officer Later the story was
changed to a rumor that Captain Strong him

HOLLANDS QUEEN I'LL
Castle Loo in Sombre Garb Be-
cause of Condition of
Royal Mistress.

Amsterdam, April 17.-AlI classes of
the population are deeply grieved at
the illness Of Queen WiIhelmina.
Prince Henry Of The Netherlands. the
prince cOnsort is overwhelmed with
anxiety and hardly leaves the queens
bedside. The queen mother is also in
constant attendance upon the royal pa
tent Whenever her majesty enjoys
peaceful sleep, Prince Henry busily oc-
cupies himself in replying personally
70 the numerous kilograms which are
constantly arriving from European
sovereigns and courts.
Dr.. ROessings. one Of the queens at
tending physicians. is staying perma-
nently at the palace. Her majesty's
temperature yesterday reached the
alarming height of 104 degrees. but the
departure from the palace Of Professor
Rosenenstein, the pathologist of Ley
den university. who has been sum-
moned in consultation. is considered a
hopeful sign that the crisis is past.
It is rumoTed that Queen WiIheImina
caught cold recently while sitting in
the park II is also said that living at
Castle Loo does not seem To agree with
her majesty. One report SAYS that
peritonitis has set in as result of
premature parturidon. The illness OF
Queen WilhelmiDa is universal topic
throughout the country, and the vari-
Gus public bodies have expressed SYM
pathy for the queen and their hopes
for her recovery. The condition of the
royal patient was unchanged at $50

ADDS TO BULLER'S WOE
Kitchener Publishes the Incrimi.
mating Dispatches 0escrib-
ing Signal Defeat.

London, April 17.-AIl the official dis
patches referring 20 the defeat sus-
tanned by the British troops under Cen
eral Butler at Spionkop, Natal. Jan. a,
1900. were made public today. Those
hitherto unpublished merely emphasize
how hopelessly muddled were the prep
arations for that engagement The
controversy between General Butler and
General Sir Charles Warren is proved to
have been even more bitter than prev
fousIy limited at, while a news extract
from one Of Lord Roberts dispatches
brings additional censure on General
Butler.
Lord Roberts declares that General
Buffers endeavOT to put the response
bility for the defeat on General War
ren was not iusdfabIe. Roberts holds
that it was Buffers duty TO intervene
when he saw things were going wrong
This remark was caused by a dispatch
from Butler, in which ne SAYS.
Il saw no attempt on the part Of
Warren 10 either grapple with the sit
uatiOn or command his force himself
We lost our chance by Warren's slow
ness. He seems TO me to be a man who
can do well what he can do himself
but who cannot command I can never
employ him again on an independent
command I ought TO have assumed
command myself when I saw things
were not going well I blame myself
now for not doing so"
Butler explains that he failed 70 su-
persede Warren because it might have
discredited the latter with Che troops.
which was an especially serious matter.
as. II Butler had been shot, Warren
would have succeeded to the supreme
command.
The question Of the responsibility for
the actual retreat from Spionkop is
shrOuded in a maze OF dispatches. PROV
ing that a mistake was made in send
ing Telegram and that there was
a general desire to shirk - onus Be
y0nd this washing Of dirty linen moth

By the publication o. the dispatch.

prevail upon Mormonism, the ministers
at the semi Methodist confer
ence had a busy and decidedly lively
closing day yesterday. The morning
session was occupied largely by a spir-
tied and rather bitter discussion Of con-
ditions alleged to have existed in the
First NJ E. church of this city. These
we're considered to be in diametrical op-
position to the conditions that should
exist in accordance with Methodist

In fact, it was declared that the
church had strayed far from the paths
of Wesleyan rectitUde. Some Of the

The difficulty Of the morning was pre-

EpWorth league be induced to hold its
conventions with the semi annual mis-
sion conference instead Of in conjunc-
ton with the G. F. and 3. Y. P. o., as
is now the custom. There were a num-
Der who objected to this plan and the
principal objection was that the Lea
guers would not turn out to the confer
ence and the convention would not be
successful
Or. Leilich took the matter I'D first
and declared that the officers Of the
league did not take sufficient account Of
the superintendent Of the Utah mis-
sion nor the presiding elder Of the salt
Lake district. In fact, ne plainly indi-
Gated in his talk that the league was
