EVANS KICKS
 VIGOROUSLY Says Marines Were
 Mistreated. CLUBBED BY POLICEMEN Were Refused Admittance to Port
 land Skating Rink. Admiral Declares That His Men Were Sober and Orderly, But People Objected To The Service Uniforms.

Washington, Sept. 13.--Rear Admi- ral Evans has sent to the Secretary of the Navy a report in which he viz orously criticises the treatment the sailors of his fleet received while at Portland, Me. He claims that they were beaten by the police and refused admittance to places of amusement because they wore their uniform.
 Secretary Bonaparte is not sure that the civil rights act would meet the conditions that now exist and is also doubtful about applying law design ed for a wholly different purpose The Secretary believe that a law can be passed which will protect the men Of the navy and army against such treat ment as is complained of.
 The report of Admiral Evans follows:
 During the recent visit of the Iowa. Indiana and second torpedo fiotilla to Portland, Maine, many of the men from the Indiana were treated with great brutality by the police and by civilian in the presence of the police
 The men were without doubt per- fectly sober and going in the direction of the wharf at which the ships boats landed, were clubbed, were kicked and knocked down by these police The civilian, in the presence of the police. drew a revolver and threatened them.
 Another indignity to which these H. berty men wehe obliged to submit took place at a rink Tickets were sold to them to enter the skating rink on Picks Island, and then skates were re- fused them on the ground that they were dressed in seamen's uniforms. Other were refused admittance to other places of common amusements and to which civilians regardless of their characters, or of the condition of their clothing. were admitted if they had the price of admission.
 I presume the owners or managers of places of amusement are not com- pelled to sell tickets. but It seems a sad comment on the patriotism of the citizens of Portland to say that they object to sitting beside sober. honest and industrious men who are In a pro- fessiou amongst the most honorable of any in the world.
 I, enclose herewith the statements of the men concerned and I have to ask if legal proceedings cannot be un- dertaken by the United States District Attorney in Maine against the police men who so brutally treated the men and the civilian who drew revolver on them.
 I have to ask also that such public ity be given to this incident as may tend to bring about 8 change in the sentiment of the police in order that more consideration may be shown to the men of the naval service when they are on shore.
 I have to inform the department that, except when otherwise instrue- ted by the department. I shall not per nit the ships under my command ro visit Portland

AVALANCHE or STONE.
Fearful Experience of Party of Alpine
 Climbers.

Climbers.
 New York. Sept. 13-A cable despatch to a morning paper from St Michael de Maerenne. France, says:
 Four Alpine climbers. while return ing from an ascent of the Aiguilles d'Arves Sunday evening. were swept by an avalanche of stones upon a glacier fifty feet below. All were stunned.
 The first to recover his sense was a man named Maize who found two of his companions lying seriously in- jured on the edge of crevasse of un- known depth. into which the fourth climber a man named Questo, was dang ling by the rope with which the party had been linked together The acci- dental wedging of this rope in cleft alone saved all the men from falling Into the abyss of the creyasse.
 Questo. who was suffering agony. shouted: My arms and legs are bro- ken. I am suffering horribly Cut the rope and let me die"
 Maize vainly tried to haul him up, and finding the others helpless. he further secured the rope and started to obtain aid It was nine hours be- fore he returned with helpers The rope had not broken and Questo. still swinging from 1t. but unconscious. soon died after being rescued. He was known in Italy as a writer on many sub tects. The others are recovering.

REBELLIoN LOOMS STRONGER.

 By Insurgents.
 aHvana. Sept ts.--The rebellion looks stronger today than ever. All the smaller towns in Santa Cara prov ince appear to be absoutely in the control of the insurgents. Cienfeugos is in state of alarm. Railroad, river and steamboat communication has been stopped. The rebels outside of Cienfuegos continue to receive rein forcements
 Things are more normal at Santa Clara City. Trains over the lines of the United Companies are running without interruption. except occasional hold-ups Both Santa Clara and Cien- feugos are prepared to resist invasion but the number of rebels before these cities is vastly superior to the gov ernment forces.
 Reports that the force under Pino Guerra is marching toward Havana, coupled with the very much increas- ed concentration of rebels outside the city Is causing uneasiness here. De- posits in the banks are extremely heavy. but money is tight. All the troops which can possibly be spared from duty In Havana province are be- ing brought into the city proper
 Expectations along the lines of tho Western and Cuban Central Railroads continue. Trains on other lines are not molested, other than to be fired upon by small bands of rebels
 Feliciano Prieto. who has the rep- utation of being strike leader has been arrested. There Is reason to be- lieve that the Liberals attempted to complicate matterss by causing strike in Havana. Their efforts, how ever, were futile

 Return tO Civil Life.
