THE REBEL LEADER IN HIDING

Closely Pursued by the Government

First Of the Year.

Caracas, Nov. 25.-President Castro,
in an interview today, said:
"The revolution received it's death
blow at La Victoria. In spite of SUI
perior numbers the rebels were defeat

ed to seek refuge in foreign land.
The remnants of his forces under arms
are unable to support each other and
are being closely pursued. I receive
news daily of the disintegration of
Mato's followers.
"a campaign has been inaugurated
against Barcelona and Ciraudad Boz

which assures its success. The battle
of La Victoria was responsible for this

Whatever efforts he may make will be
futile and as a man of intelligence he

The support which he had six months
ago he can not command today. Friends
of Matos appreciate his purse strings

he is not likely to spend more money on

Cable Contract. Completed.

Washington, D. c., Nov. 25.-The ar
rangements by which the deep sea
soundings and surveys made by the
Nero under the direction Of the navy
department are to be turned over to the
Commercial Cable Company for use in
laying the Pacific cable beyond the Ha-
waiian islands were completed yester-
day.
The representatives of the cable
company examined the charts at the
department and expressed themselves
as highly gratified with the thorough
ness of the work. Duplicate sets of the
charts have been prepared and will be
turned over to the company as soon as
the contract prepared by the attorney
general is signed. This will be in a
few days.
The only provision Of the terms laid
down by the government to which the
company took exception was that pro-
viding for American operatives. This
was modified at the request of the COM
pany to provide for American opera
tives when obtainable. The charts will
carry the cable beyond the Hawaiian
islands to the Midway islands, and from
the Midway islands to Guam. From
Guam two links will extend, one to
Manila and the other to Yokohama.

DEFENSE Of RIGHT TO LABOR.
Southern Educator Would Allow Every
Man Freedom AS to Work.

New Orleans, Nov. 25.-I believe
that every American laboring man has
the right to earn his bread and support
his family by laboring at whatever non-
orable trade he chooses or at whatever
employment he can get" said r. b.
Fulton of the University of Mississippi
in an interview here Monday. This
statement was made in reply to Presi-
dent Eliot of Harvard, who in speech
at Boston few days ago is said to have
declared that "scabs" and Strike
breakers are good types of modern
heroes. Continuing, President Fulton
said:
Society Is collection ofindividuals,
and as is the largest number of indi-
viduals so is society. Therefore 1T is
we'll to look after the interests of the
largest number There is no doubt Of
the fac. that society is more nearly con-
cerned with the welfare of the aggre-
gate million of wage-earners who are
in the labor unions of this country than
with the welfare of the score of capi
talists who are now so prominent in all
the big organizations of industrial in
terests called trusts.
81 believe that society could get along
better without the few capitalists than
1T could without the million of laborers
represented in the unions. / believe
that whatever Is for the interests of
these Iaborers and for their welfare is
for the welfare of society as whole.
For that reason I believe that if there
is any more right to organize on one
side than there is on another, that
greater right lies with the laboring
men.
"But do not believe that under the
laws and institutions of our country
any organization of men, laboring peo-
pie tho they may be, has right to force
individuals to become members in it,
Nor do I believe that any labor union
has the right under our institutions to
say to a man who has been laboring
right along at the same occupation with
its members that he can not longer
work If the union calls strike. If he
has had conscientious scruples against
becoming a member of the union and
desires to continue at his work, | can
not conceive of course of reasoning
that would allow that union to dictate
to one not affiliated with it and who
never had been"

GREAT WESTERN WRECK.
The Property Loss Was Heavy, But
Mo Lives Were Lost.

The Property Loss Was Heavy, Sut
Mo Lives Were Lost.
Des Moines. Nov. 25.-Great Western
freight train No. SO was ditched Nom
day near. .Conger. nineteen miles south
west of Des Moines. No casualties
are reported but the wreck was never
the less one of the most disastrous that
has occurred on the Great Western
system this season.
Seven heavily loaded cars were
hurled off the track and property val
ued at $4,000 was damaged or de-
stroyed Five of the cars were so bad
ly smashed up that they will be use
less. the balance will require extensive
repairs before they can be put into
service again.
Officials of the road are reticent as
to the cause of the accident but it is
understood that one of the grain cars
in the center of the train had been
overloaded and collapsed. The accident
happened short distance from a
small bridge about IA feet high and
the foreward section ran onto this
without accident Had the grain car
collapsed on this bridge it is probable
there would have been loss of life. At
ter the first car collapsed six others
ran onto it and We're hurled down the
embankment. Engineer Charles Pies
samire and Fireman Lindquist both es-
capped without injury and brought the
train to standstill within hundred
yards of the spot where the first car
went off the track. Conductor Horn
was in the caboose. Neither he nor
his brakemen were hurt.
Four of the wrecked cars contained
grain and the others were loaded with
meat The grain was strewn all over
the ground along the track and much
of the meat was spoiled.
A wrecking crew started from the
local yards to the scene OF the accident
shortly before noon today In the
meantime traffic on the southern branch
of the Great Western was delayed and
trains were sent to Kansas City over
the Keokuk & Western, the transfer
being made at Diagonal.

NEW HIT AT WESTERN UNION.
Pennsylvania Road to Keep Messen-
gers from Cars.

New York, Nov. 25.--The latest de-
velopment in the war which has been
on between the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company and the Western Union Tele-
graph Company since George j. Gould
announced, nearly year go, that the
Wabash railroad would enter Pittsburg,
came to the notice of Wall street Mon
day. 1t was a report that the Pennsyl-'
vania had given notice that hereafter
no Western Union messengers were to
be allowed to enter Pennsylvania cars
to deliver messages. When this report
was brought to the notice of General
Superintendent Brooke of the Eastern
division of the telegraph company he
investigated. and later in the day said:

gers have not been allowed to enter
cars have been reported to me. My In

TO FIGHT THE BANDITS.
Railroads and Express Companies Pre-
pare for Hold Up Men.

Chicago, Nov 25.-Train robbery as
an industry is to be throttled thru con-
certed action of railroad and express
companies, operating from headquar-
ters scattered throut the middle west.
OF late there has been an epidemic of
railway hold ups, extending from the
banks of the Mississippi river over the
great plains to the foothills of the
Rocky mountains and beyond In the
lonely wildernesses of the far west.
while the latter territory may be ex-
pected to be occasionally invaded 1t is
the daring exploits carried on by the
bandits at the threshold of centers OF
civilization which have determined
some of the officials concerned to make
a decided and permanent stand against
their common enemy-the knight of the
red lantern, dynamite stick and Win
chester.
Local officials of some of the roads
directly interested, thru incidents of
this character which are of recent ORR
gin, have been spurTed to drastic meas
ures. The Davenport robbery of the
fast Chicago, Rock Island and, Pacific
train was the straw that broke the CAM
els back. The railroad companies. in
conjunction with the United States Ex-
press Company, issued a joint reward
during the day of $1,000 for the arrest
and conviction of the knights of the
read who intercepted their train early
Saturday morning. and running away
with the engine and express car blew
the latter vehicle to pieces with dyna-
mite bomb. The companies are SEEM
ingly at the mercy of several rowing
bands of desperadoes. The purchase
of dynamite proof safes seems to but
offer an additional incen i've to the in
genuity of the cracksmen, and they
never fail I'd let daylight into strong
box of any. pattern. Armed messen-
gers are of little or no avail, for refusal
to open the door OF the express car calls
forth a threat to dynamite the frame
work of the car and the messenger first
and afterwards to blow open the safe.
In addition to declaration of new
policy to follow these robbers until cap
tured, the Burlington road entered the
field with an announcement that a dead
train robber would be worth $1,000 to
any of its employees. 1t was inferred by
some who heard of the order that dead
train robbers would be preferable to
live ones.

ANARCHIST PLOT SUSPECTED.

posed Meeting Place of Reds.

New York, Nov. 25.-As the outcome
of the arrest of two Italians fighting
fiercely in the street, the police of the
Oak street station in this city believe

the Department of the Seine, with
about a dozen of the largest public
buildings numbered consecutively and
marked. He also had a billhead from
the Carlton hotel London, and ad
nnitted that he came to this country
three weeks ago.
According to the police the fight
was started in hall in Roosevelt street
where meeting was in session. Santo
was charged with having revealed Sc
crets, and the fight in the street fol :
lowed, resulting in their arrest Menz
lis said to have admitted that he is an
anarchist.

COMMONS UPHELD GOVERNMENT
siunineI Of Brussels Sugar Convention
lndorsed.

I,ondon. Nov. 25.--After lengthy de-
hate the house of commons passed
resolution approving the action or the
Brussel,s sugar convention by 2ls to
1876 The house, itself. and the public
paIleries were crowded in anticipation
OF the discussion.
Colonial Secretary Chamberlain, VINO
sails on his mission to South Africa
November 20, was the center OF at
traction and he made the speech OF the
evening. Party lines were not observed
during the debate, several unionists
members supporting Sir William Har-
courts amendment to censure the gov
ernmert for its action.
The possible attitude of the, United
States government in this question en-
tered largely into the debate. Mr..
Thomas Shaw (liberaD maintained that
in order to live up to the terms Of the
convention Great Britain would be
compelled to enforce the countervailing
duties against the United States and
Russia with the result that the West
Indies would be robbed of their best
customer, as the United States now
took four-fifths of the West Indian
produce.
MT. OlaIflDSTldiIs WIN, oA "
make his last speech prior to his South
Africa trip, was loudly cheered.
declared that Great Britain must carry
out it's financial system in its own way
without the slightest reference to the
opinion of foreign countries. The abne-
cation of the governments attitude al
the sugar conference, he said, would
be a breach of interest for the house.
The abolition of the sugar bounties was
merely matter of common justice to
the West Indies. while at the same
time, such action restored the relations
between capital and labor and produc-
tion and exchange to their natural
phase
He maintained that even if the Pc
cuniary sacrifice that those in Great
Britain might make in paying trifle
more for their sugar were twice as
great they still were bound to abolish
the bounties and to relieve the West
Indies on the grounds of national honor
and justice to all parts of the en-
pire.

Cleveland, O., Nov. 25.-Fiye hum
dred boys and girls from Central High
school captured the business section of
the city today and gave the police
and the street railway operatives con-
siderable trouble. Just after the school

in an open lot to sing the school song
in celebration of the foot ball victory
on Saturday When the song had been
concluded 500 of the pupils, many OF
the girls being without hats, started

the street and refused to permit street
cars to pass. When policemen inter-
fered they laughted at them. These
pupils missed all their classes for the
day, and Principal Harris says he will
take steps to discipline them.
