SECRETARY TERRY RESIGNED.
But Pres. PaIna's Cabinet Refused
TO Accept Resignation.

Havana, Aug. 1S.-At the meeting
of the Council of Secretaries to-day,
Emilio Terry, secretary Of agriculture,
presented his resignation. 1t was not
accepted. Senior Terry will have four
days in which to reconsider his step.
The resignation of Senior Terry is
commented upon variously to-day in
the local press. El Mundo says Senior
Terry resigned because he became dis
gusted with the weak policy of the
government, and because President
Palma has not followed the plan he
outlined when he landed at Gibara."
Senior TeTfy himself says he resign
ed for family reasons, and because he
desires to go to Paris.
The Diario de la Marina says: 1.-THE
resignation of Senior Terry is a tri-
umph for the Radicals"
LaLucha says: "Senor Terry backed
Sencr Diaz. secretary of public works,
in the Castenado concession, which is
a scandal, and the rest of the cabinet
would not concur consequently the
secretary of agriculture resigned
Senior Diaz should also resign"
La Discussion says: THE resignation
of Senior Terry Is due to the fact that
the House of Representatives delayed
its approval of his plans TO assist Gu
ban agriculture, and Of the $4,000, 600
loan to be devoted TO this end"

tails of the mutiny of the native crew

RAIN MARRIED MANEUVERS.
In Wild Sea Torpedo Boats Pitched
Like PorpOises.


London, Aug. 1s.-The naval maneu-
vers in the Solent to-day were marred
by the weather. Torrents of rain and
half a gale of wind drove the specta-
tors from the sea front and it was
noon instead of 10 o'clock, when the
royal yacht Victoria and Albert left
Cowes and took King Edward through
the lines of the fleet.
Subsequently an array of battleships
and cruisers, to the number of nearly
eighty, formed in two columns and
passed on either side of the Victoria
and Albert. All the war vessels manned
ship as they passed the royal yacht.
The evolutions of the fleet had to be
curtailed in consequence of the
weather rendering the proposed diff
cult "gridiron" movement dangerous.
The fotilla of torpedo boat destroyers
escorting the King pitched in such
way that they look from a distance
like a shoal of porpoises playing
around the royal yacht The Victoria
and Albert returned to Cowes at about
o'clock and the fleet dispersed to
take up it's usual duties.

Brest, France, Aug. 1S.-The closing
of the Sisters schools at Ploudaniel,
Folgoet and ST. Meen, the last villages

schools were still open. met with de-

throughout the night and the tocsin

gendarmes and troops was signallad at
o'clock in the morning. At Plou-
daniel in spite of a heavy fall of rain,
a crowd of several thousand persons
replied with boots to the summons Of

ringing of the church bells drowned
the voices of the officials.

was done in the midst of showers of
filth and muddy water from the de-
tenders, who manned the breach, armed
with clubs, and prevented the commits
saries from penetrating into the gar
den.
The soldiers attempted to scale the
wall with the aid of a pile of faggots,
but the defenders deluged the faggots
with petroleum and set them on fire,
whereupon the commissaries and
troops drew off amidst cheers for lib
erty and for the sisters. The school
was finally closed after long resist
ance.
At st. Meen the sisters were expelled
and the school was closed after a two
hours struggle, during which a police
commissary was wounded. The school
at Folgoet was also closed.

Months.
Newport, r. l.. Aug. 1S.-Disappoint-
ment over a broken matrimonial en-
cause of the suicide here to-day of
Robert r. Remington of New York.
The young woman he was to have
married IS Miss May Van Allen.
Mr.. Remington came over to the
clubhouse from his rooms at the La
Forge cottage about 1 O'Clock this af-
ternoon, and after reading the papers
for some time. went to the committee
rooms on the second floor.
An hour and half later two muffied

building paid no attention to them.
Later Mr.. Remington's body was found
by a member. who went to the COM

body.
The Broken Engagement.
Mr.. Remington was well known
among the summer residents in this
city, and had been closely identified
with the social world here for the last
seven or eight years. His engagement
20 Miss May Van Allen, daughter of
James Van Allen, and granddaughter
of Mrs. William Aston, has been dis
cussed for some months. At first it
was denied. and then affirmed, but 1t
is generally believed there was a def
mite engagement. which, however, was
broken some three weeks ago. 1t is
said that Mr.. Van Allen was greatly
opposed to the engagement from the
beginning.
Since then Mr.. Remington has been
respondent. although when asked
about the engagement he steadily af-
firmed that he was to be married in
the fall. He left the city about a week
ago, breaking up his domestic arrange
ment here and sending away all his
effects. Last Thursday. however he
suddenly returned to Newport. He
had frequented the leading club Of
Newport and seemed to desire to be
left alone.

was coming from the mouth and a. re-
volver was found by the dead mans
side. A physician found that three
shots had been fired from the revolver,
and an examination of the head show
ed that all three had taken effect.
The first bullet apparently, ploughed
across the forehead. cutting q deep
cash, and the second glanced up over
the head, making a furrow on the top

skull. The third shot was fired
through the mouth and the bullet en-
