FIGHTING IN SAN

SERIOUS CONFLICTS REPORTED
FROM HAYTI.
RECOGNITION NOT GIVEN
Insurgents Fail to Be as Fortunate
as Those at Panama, Perhaps Be-
cause they Mean to Violate PreVi-
Gus Observation-Disclosures De
clared Intellectual.

San Domingo, Nov. 1S.-The insuT-
gents have been bombarding the city.
The city is completely invested by
1000 men under Pichardo and four
other generals. A general attack is
expected within the next few days.
General Wos Y. Gil refused to capitu
late and it is believed the fighting
will be severe. The situation is des-
perate AID fighting in the streets is
likely to occur at any moment.
United States Minister Powell is
enGeavoring to protect American in
terests with the limited means at his
DISPOSAL The cruiser Baltimore has
been compelled to leave TO re-coal. A
&c man naval vessel is ready to land
ps at a moments notice. The IN
sUTsents eldeavored to have Minister
Powell recognize them but he refused
to 10 so. The revolutionists fired on
tho Clyde line New York as she enter
&c The port of SANTANA. but the vessel
wes uninjuTed.
Blockade No Good.
New York, Nov. 1S.-The United
States government has refused to rec
ogcize the blockade of the San Do
minican ports, made two days age,
and has protested against it, This was
confirmed by Nevada H. Stranahan,
collector of the port of New York, yes
terday and he had notified the masters
of vessels to San Dominican ports
that clearance papers will be issued
for any ports in San Domingo, thus
officially refuting the effectiveness of
the blockade.
Recognition Here Comes Slowly.
Washington, Nov. 1S.-The revolu-
tionists of San Domingo yesterday
through j. NJ. Griordan, who repre-
scented himself as the agent of the rev.
Olutionary government. applied to the
state department fer recognition by
the United States. The state depart
melt declined recognition, informing
Griordan that it had been the unbro-
ken policy of the state department to
recognize only the de facto govern
ment, and if Minister Powell, who is
on the spot, finds the revolutionists
have actually established a capital,
opened ports and are able to protect
life and property, he will recognize
their government. 1t is believed Mr.
Powell has net looked with favor upon
the recognition desired, as the revolu-
tioaists have threatened to invalidate
and repudiate any arrangements
which the United States minister may
have made with the tottering govern
melt of President Gil.

A STRONG sentiment exists at
Charleston among the legislators to
remove the state capitalfrom that I'M
healthy city. Delegate Kyle upon his
visit home stated that this sentiment
would have fine show of materializ-
ing this action, if the proper steps
were taken in Clarksburg to offer an
inducement Of some sort. There
ought to be a committee out now
looking for site to present to the
state for the purpose. What public
spirited citizen will volunteer to head
such movement? The columns of
the Telegram are open for suggestions
on the subject and the measure to be
taken in order to place the capital,
where it rightfully belongs. There
are real estate owners here who could
well afford to make concessions and
inducements. Let us hear from them.
