concerning the retreat OF the revolu-
on the night of November 1st the revo-
lutonists withdrew from the.r positions
near La Victoria and San Mateo be-
cause they were without ammunition.
The fact that the rebels lacked cart
ridges caused a disagreement between
General Matos and General Ro.ando,
which was followed by hot wotds. Cen
eraI Rolando declared that the short
age of ammunition was the fault of Cen
eral Mates, and that ii the success Of
the revolution was endangered by this
condition, General Matos alone was re-

with his followers. about 500 men, he
withdrew from the main body CT the
rebels in the direction OF Alta Gracia-a
President Castro. since lie discovered
that the revolutionists onsy retreated be-
cause of their absolute lack of ammuni-

mountainous districts. These generals are
supposed to be near Berrera. Il point

It is difficult to understand the sud

cause seems absolutely lost.

MADE HIS ESCAPE
FOR FIFTH TINE
John Dunnayant, Of Manchester,
Gets Out Of the Asylum at
Williamsburg.

A tradition handed down from gem
GRAFTON to generation in Manchester is
that a person who once drank OF the
water OF the Old Tavern well would ever
cherish food remembrances Of the city,
and no matter how far he strayed way,
or under what circumstances he was de-
tained from looking upon the beauties of
the land of the free.
ohm Bunyan Dunnavant is a living
example of this tradition. Sent TO VIII
=liamsburg Asylum about FIVE years ago.
sDunnavant has four times before had
the pleasure of looking upon his native
city and viewing again the old we'll. moss
grown with age. yet whose waters are
as pure and sweet as ever. A telegram
to Chief of Police Lipscomb from Super
intendent Foster, of the asylum. received
last evening about 1870 o.oclck. broke the
gentle news that Bunyan had again es-
capped the fifth time, and was supposed
to be on his way to Manchester.
1t was only about six months ago that
Dl1nnavint was in the city before, having
made his escape from the guards at the
time of the fire which destroyed por-
ton Of the building. He remained a t his
home for a week, was entirely rational.
and was allowed perfect freedom.
He was at home one afternoon with
his two younger brothers. when he be-
came excited. and said he believed the
Lord had commanded him to Kill one of
his brothers. Dunnarant was arrested
and ordered again to be taken to the
asylum. While on his way. in charge OF
the officer from the institution, he jumped
from q. moving car and made good his es-
cape, remaining in Chesterfield county for
over ten days, when he was captured by
Captain Lipscomb. and brought to the
=iaiI. He re he was confined until the
authorities came after him. and was then
taken to the asylum again.
The telegram last night announcing hts
escape is the fifth time like notice has
been sent to the police of Manchester. He
is expected in Manchester either to-day
or tomorrow. and the officers are on the
lookout for him.

CHICAGO, ILL, November 7.-Presi-
dent A. B. Stickney. Of the Chicago
Great Western Railroad Company. was
sion OF the Interstate Commerce Com
mission to-day. He had prepared a num-
Der of figures to show that the rates I'M
posed by that road We're not unreason-
able. Mr.. Stickney's testimony was to the
effect that while there was an apparently
large disparity between the rates on live
stock and the finished product. yet the
conditions of transportation made the two
rates almost equal.
President Stickney declared that all
rates are established on a basis OF an
absolutely free market. and the intention
of the railroad company is not TO hurt
Chicago or to build up Kansas City. The
ate OF is IL cents on packing house pro-
ducts, he said. was made after neSotla-
tons with large shippers and while the
Great Western had secured the best ra te
it could arrange. yet the one now estab-
lished is not unreasonable. He further
asserted that the live stock rate, all
things considered, IS not out oi pp piopoA-
ton to the other.
W. b. Biddle. freight traffic mana ager e

witness, took issue with President Stick
ney In regard to rates on e&stock He
began by stating that the rates estab-
lisheCl by his company on packing mouse
products are the same as those OF the
Great Western Road. While on live stock
Il is only l2 cents compared with 23 IL
cents as charged by the Great Western
line. The witness. said that the cost OF
both was about equal. and that railroad
men generally recognized that rates
should be higher on the finished products
than on live stock.
