Puerto Plata, San Domingo, Jan
20.-Seven hundred soldiers are or
the march to Santiago, the. rebe
stronghold, and it is believed that this
battle will be the most important OF
the Jiminez revolution. The rebels
are firmly intrenched in their capital
and will make desperate resistance.
Details of the recapture of Puerto
Plata few days ago by the govern
ment forces show that the commander
of an American war vessel in the har-
Dor practically managed the battle
and that fighting zone, demarked by
the commanders Of the United States
and British warships. was accepted by
the contending forces. President
Morales troops promptly respected the
order to cease firing, altho General
Jiminez' forces when routed ran thru
the streets and continued to fire in all
directions.
An American force, composed of
eight men, with the stars and stripes,
went to the firing line and demanded
a suspension of hostilities. The COM
mander of the United States warship
then landed a force of 100 men and
arranged for the surrender Of the fort.
The Americans disarmed the Jiminez
forces and later turned over the fort
to General Cespedes, in command of
the government troops.

Governor Cummfns had a long and
important conference with President
Roosevelt yesterday and informed the
chief executive of his decision to fight.
This is important as Governor Cum
minis considers the contest being made
against him on account Of his tariff
revision views an indirect way Of in
PRODUCING into Iowa the anti-Roose-
welt campaign. Notice was served on
the "stand patters'' as soon as the gov
ernor arrived here that he was we'll
aware the fight was on and was fully
prepared to meet it.
Regarding the stories that he had
his opponents, Governor Cummins
said:
Nothing to Compromise.
have nothing to compromise and win
not enter into any arrangement to divide
the delegation to the national convention.
That delegation will be made up as the
people Of Iowa want it, and have no
doubt 1t will be Cummins delegation. It
will also be for Roosevelt.
Inasmuch as the fight against Gov
ernor Cummins is being led by J.. w.
Blythe, the friends Of the governor
do not hesitate to declare they regard
It as the beginning of an anti-Roose-
welt fight in Iowa, instigated by the
j. ]. Hill interests.
The president and Governor Cum
minis had a conference lasting nearly
two hours at which this entire. ques-
ton was gone over and President
Roosevelt was assured by Mr.. Cum
minis Of his support and in turn, the
governor asked the president for as
sistance in the coming struggle against
friends Of Senator Hanna in Iowa.
Mr.. Blythe and the anti-Cummins
men also declare their loyalty to the
president and deny that they have any
idea Of starting an anti-Roosevelt
fight in Iowa. They say their only
object is to defeat the plan to have a
delegation from Iowa favoring tariff
revision.

HARMONY.


Teller copper properties Of British CO.
lunbia and Montana.
Frank B. Ray Of New York, the
electrical mining engineer, was inter-
viewed here as he passed thru on his
way from New York to Chicago. He
had just come from London and is
en- route to British Columbia in the
interest Of H. H. Rogers Of the Stand
ard Oil company. Said he:
The details Of the consolidation Of the
British Columbia Copper company and the
Snowshoe Mining company were COM
pleted before left London. The stock of
the latter company is all owned in London.
The mines of both companies are in the
Deadwood Camp boundary, British Co
lumbia. But this is only forerunner of
greater combination. AS was leaving
London negotiations were nearly COM
pleted for the purchase of the Heinze
copper interest in Montana by the British
Exploration company. This plan Is said to
be the result of the close relations estab-
mated Copper company in this country and
the Rothschilds, who control the European
copper market.
Officers Are New Workers.
Mr.. Ray referred to the fact that
the Amalgamated company and the
Rothschilds have agreed on selling
price for copper in the United States
and Europe. Fluctuations in the price
are controlled by the selling agen-
cies in both hemispheres. It must
not be inferred, however, that the
British interests will control the new
combine. The capital stock has been
decided on at f1,O0O,000 for the Brit
ish Columbia enterprise. The officers
Of the company are all New Workers,
as follows: President, F. L. Under
wood; treasurer, G. e. Laidlaw; sec
rotary, r. H. Eggleston.
The controlling interest in the
Greene copper company has been
passed to H. III. Rogers, the deal l1av-
ing been made several months ago
With the British Exploration compa-
ny, the British Columbia compa-
ny. the Anialgamated Copper com
pany, the Greene Copper company
and the Rothschilds' possessions, the
two moneyed interests of Europe and
the United States will be able to con-
troll the copper industry of the world,
at least that is Mr.. Rays deduction
He will install the apparatus in the
British Columbia company's mines.

New York, Jan. 2O.--John Brisben
Walker gave a dinner last night at
the Waldorf-Astoria to Professor
Samuel P. Langley, the director of the
Smithsonian institution and inventor
of the aerial machine which recently
engaged the attention of scientists.
Among the guests were M. Santos
Dumont, Edwin Markham, Charles
M. Manley, the man who went down
in Professor Langley's machine, and
former Secretary of the Treasury Ly-
man J. Gage.
Professor Langley told of his TWEEN
ty years struggle to get the secret
of aerial navigation. The failures on
the Potomac last summer and fall
were not due to any mistake in the
construction of the machine itself or
in the theory of it's construction, but
to defective launching mechanism
II am too Old" the speaker said
at the end "to finish what I have
begun. am sure that some younger
man than / will take up the work
where I have left it, and I am con-
fident that he will succeed"
Mr.. Walker followed Professor
Langley by making few confident
prophecies. He said in substance:
II am speaking, not fancifully, but
deliberately, when / say that I believe
p most confidently that the flying ma
chine will be commercially available
within twelve months. Not only will
it furnish the cheapest means OF
transportation, but the safest. I say
this in the belief that 1t will be the
only recognized method of transporta-
ton within twenty-five years"
Edwin Markham said: Il Exophesy
that we shall live to see the day when
we have airships moored about our
bay windows; when we shall run
down to business on them as tho we
were calling our gondolas, as tho we
were boarding our ships or our auto.
mobiles for a trip to the shops, to
Europe, or to far Cathay."
M. ,Santos-Dumont regretted that
he was not sufficiently acquainted
with the English language to make
an address worthy of the occasion.

IHEATER FOLK
In HOTEL FIRE
Bad Luck Seems to Pursue Play
ers Stranded in the Windy
City.
Grand Palace Hotel Catches Fire
and Several Have Marrow
Escapes.

Chicago, Jan. 20.-The i'll fortune
OF chicago theatrical people during
the last few weeks was again in evil
dence at fire in the Grand Palace
hotel early to-day, nearly 200 mem
| bers of theatrical troupes being driven
into the streets by the flames. 1t was
with difficulty that panic was avert
| ed and the frightened men and women
assisted from the structure in safety
The fire originated on the second
| floor, supposedly from crossed electri-
/ cal wires, and was carried quickly uy
the elevator shaft to the top floor.
Joseph Northrop, guest, saw
smoke in the shaft and ran down
stairs to notify the night clerk. The
clerk Immediately started to awaken
into the elevator. ran upward thru
the smoke and flames and helped
arouse guests on the top floor.
Prepared to Jump.
The halls were soon filed with ex-
cited men and women, and number
or women were preparing to jump
from the windows when policemen
arrived and aided in the work of re-
straint and rescue. The women were
led to rear stairway down which
they escaped thru the smoke pouring
upward from the lower floors.
Louise Mitchell, who had been
hemmed in by the flames, was rescued
by the firemen and taken down a fire
escape. Few of the guests had time
to dress but some Of the women had
thought of their theatrical ward
robes and stood shivering in the lower
halls of the building holding gaudy
costumes of gauze and tinsel. The
fire did little damage.
Almost all the guests at the hotel
are members of theatrical companies
stranded in Chicago.
