ANOTHER BREAK OUT.
Colombian Revolution Assumes q
New ASPECT.


WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.-The Co.
lombian revolution has broken out In
Z new place, according to information
received at the navy department. An
American fruit company transmitted
to Secretary Moody a cablegram from
its agent at Santa Marta, place Oh
the north coast of Colombia, near the
mouth of the Magdalena river, saying
that conditions there We're very much
disturbed, that the telegraph and rail
road communication had been inter-
rupted and requesting the depart
nlents attention.
The dispatch was sent at once to the
state department, and our consul at
Barranquilla, place near Santa Mar
ia, was called on for an immediate re-
port concerning the situation. This
report is expected soon. and until it is
received no action looking to the dis
patch Of warship will be taken by
the navy department.
In case the conditions of affairs at
Santa Marta should demand the pres
ence of vessel the navy department
has decided to send the gunboat Ma
rietta, now at La Guayra, but the con-
dition of affairs at the latter point is
Slch that if the Marietta is obliged to
leave the Montgomery, at Cape Hal
tien, will be ordered forthwith to La
Guayra, and the latter's place on the
Haitian coast will be taken Temporal
rily by the San Francisco, which sailed
from Norfolk today.
Rear Admiral Coghlan, who will
have all the warships in West Indian
waters under his immediate control,
is expected to sail Oh his flagship, the
Olympia, from Boston within two
weeks. On his arrival at Cape Haitien
the San Francisco will return to Nor
folk for general repairs.

WORLD APPEALED TO
Boer Generals Ask Help For
Their People.
BRITISH AID IS INSUFFICIENT.
The Small Amount Given by Great
Britain II Multiplied Tenfold
Would Not Cover War
Losses Alone.


AMSTERDAM, Sept. 24-The Boer
generals Botha, De Wet and Delarey
have issued manifesto in the shape
of an appeal to the civilized world.
This document recalls how after the
terrible struggle in South Africa and
the Beers were compelled to accept the
British terms of peace the generals
were commissioned to proceed to Eng
land and appeal to the new government
to allay the distress which is devas-
tating the colonies and in the event Of
tle failure Of the mission to appeal to
the civilized world for charitable con-
tributions.
Continuing, the generals say that,
having failed to induce Great Britain
to grant further assistance, it only re-
mains for them to address themselves
to the people of Europe and America.
After setting forth how sweet it had
been during the critical days they had
passed through to receive constant
marks of sympathy the generals take
this opportunity to express Oh behalf
of the people of the late republic fer
vent thanks to all those who had as
sisted charitably the women and chill
dren in the concentration camps, pris-
oners, etc. "The small Boer nation,"
goes on the manifesto, "can never for
get the help it received in its dark
hours Of suffering Our people are
completely ruined. It has been impos-
sible to make complete inventory,
but we are convinced that at least 3O,-
600 houses on Boer farms and many
villages were burned or destroyed by,
the British during the war. Every
thing was destroyed, and the country
was completely laid waste, The war
demanded many victims, the land was
bathed in tears, and our orphans and
widows were abandoned. We are ap-
pealing to the world for contributions
to assist the destitute and help in the
education Of children
The generals repudiate all desire to
inflame the minds of the people and
declare, '"rhe sword is now sheathed,
and all differences are silent in the
presence of such misery"
They say the small amount given by
Great Britain even if multiplied ten
fold would not suffice to cover the war
losses alone.
eve solicit the hearty cooperation Of
all existing committees in the various
countries which we are on the point of
visiting with the object Of establishing
q satisfactory organiZa ton"
The manifesto is signed by General
Botha, General De Wet and General
DelareY.

DEATH LURKED
IN ELECTRIC FAN.
J. K. CaYitt Killed in a Market
Street Saloon While Attempt
ing to Adjust Apparatus

J. K. Gavitt, aged 80 years, of GAS
North Sixteenth street, Philadelphia
was electrocuted shortly before 8
o'clock last evening while in Nc
Hughs saloon, 1402 Market street.
So sudden was the accident that for
the first few moments the spectators
to it were horror-stricken. When
they rushed to the mans assistance
he was unconscious and before he
reached the Hahnemann Hospital he
was dead.
Gavitt had not been in good
health for some time and has not
worked for the past year. Shortly
before = o'clock last evening Gavitt
entered McHugh's saloon, where he
was well known. He noticed that
one of the fans was not revolving,
and made an attempt to make it
operate. Stepping up on the brass
rail in front Of the bar, he reached
up to the fan.
As he touched the iron rod con-
Meeting it he gave groan and fell
to the floor. Bright sparks flew
from his hands. The soles of his
shoes, which rested on the brass
rail, were burned sin small holes,
showing that the deadly circuit had
been complete.
b Bartender Kane was at the mans
side a few moments later and tried
to resuscitate him. A carriage was
called Immediately and the uncon-
scious man was driven to the
Hahnemann Hospital. When : he
arrived there, however, he was
dead. The doctors said he had died
on the way. The dead man resided
with his mother.
