The little patch of territory which
England is trying to steal from Von

large as tbo state of Illinois.
For the benefit of several esteemed
contemporaries, we would state that the
Chicago man's novel, "Forty Yearf
With the Damned," is not an autobiog
raphy. Five million dollars was tbo othei
flay drawn from the United States treas
ury in gold bars by jewelers who are
preparing for the holiday trade. Some
folks seem to have money yet.
A New York saloonkeeper was fined

Tho Boston (ilobe says: "What is the

The discovery of rich gold mines was
the inspiration of Great Britain in ad
vancing Its boundary line in Venezuela.
Tho British government claimed
enough new territory to get the mines.
The same thing, it appears, is going on
In Alaska. Valuable gold mines have
been discovered in the territory of the
r lilted States. As a result Great Brit
ain has advanced her boundary so as to
take in a large slice of our territory.
At what Great Britain considers an op
portune, time we shall probably bo
handed an "ultimatum" to give up the
territory or fight. This is Great Br it
ain's Christian way of settling a dis
pute when she thinks she can win by
force.

? Tampa, Fla., Nov. 32. Colonel Fer
nando Figuredo, tlie Cuban leader of
this city, has received a letter from
llavanah giving1 details of atrocities
committed by Spaniards in Matanzas
province. Cololel Melino, who com
manded a Spanish regiment, recently
encountered the advance guard of
fioine.'s army in Matau.asand was de
feated. While soldiers under Melino
were in retreat they met a group of
women and children near a little town
called Cityopino. As the soldiers
passed one of the women made a sneer
ing remork about the Spaniards. Tho
remark was overheard by tins soldiers
and so tenragod them that they fell
upon the women nnd children and
butchered every one of them. There
were ten women and about a dozen
children in the group.
'the letter Rays that the Spaniards.
after shooting down their victims,
stabbed them with bayonets, indicting
1110 most horrible wound One baby
was killed at its mother's breast, and
the bullet that passed through the in
fant also killed tho mother. Colonel
Meliuo made no report of the butch
ery, but two of the women murdered
were wives of .Spaniards engaged in
tho sawmill business iu Mautanzas.
When the husbands learned how their
loved ones had been butchered thev
wrote to Captain General' Campos, in
forming him of the affair and demand
ing tiiat Colouel Meliuo bo punished.
Jt is said that ( amposhas ordered that
Meliuo bo court inartialed and it is
thought the butcher will be sentenced
to death, as the massacre is condemned
as bitterly by .Spaniards us by Cubans.
THE POWERS SNUBBED.
Atnbntuailor Agnln Niid YViirnlnir !

Coxstaxtivopm:, Nov. S2. The pro
fessed determination of the sultan to
net energetically in suppressing the
disorders in Asia Minor had a decided
ly good effect here and elsewhere, and
the troubles which threatened to
cause the disruption of the Turkish
government were looked upon jester
day as almost ended. To day, how
ever, the outlook is almost as grave as
ever, the sultan having appointed
Bahri Pasha, who made himself so con
spicuous by his cruelty to Armenians
and maladministration of his district
when governor of Van that tho British
ambassador insisted upon his removal,
as military 'commander of the Aleppo
district.
Immediately upon receiving the
news of this appointment tho represen
tatives of tlie powers held a meeting
and, after discussing tlie mutter from
all its standpoints, joined in a note to
the Turkish government saying that
they could not answer for the conse
quences which might ensue should the
Armenians of Xeitoun be massacred
after their surrender, which tho Ar
menian patriarch, at tlie instance of
tlie representatives of tlie powers, is
endeavoring to bring about in order
to prevent lurther bloodshed.
The British fleet is still at Salonica,
and the French and Italian fleets are
at Smyrna, about ','OD miles from Sa
lonlca. (Smyrna and .Salonica, how
ever, are about an equal distance from
the entrance to tho Dardanelles.
According to the Turkish accounts,
the Armenians provoked the disturb
ance at Marsovan, ami it is also said
that the Amerieau missionaries there
were not in any w ay molested. tte
pctrt received here from tho interior
of Asia Minor announce fresli conver
sions of Armenian womcu and chil
dren to Islamism.
Armenian refugees, who have ar
rived here from the different provinces
from which they lied at the time of
tho recent massacres, have petitioned
the patriarch to asskt thosa of their
co-religionists who were unable to get
away, as famine is threatening their
country, and that tlie most terrible
sufferings may be anticipated when
the cold weather sets in. thousands of
Armenian families being without
shelter.
Fnited States Minister Terrell, at
the request of the American mission
aries at Kharpet, bus prevailed upon
the Turkish government to telegraph
orders to the Turkish commander
there to funiUli the missionaires with
an escort of troops to conduet them tci
the nearest point on lh lllurk m'h
en-t, possibly TrebWiiid. in order
that they may cmlnirk tor tliisiiiy.
Mr. Terrell bus u!mi advised tbu mis
sionaries in other disturbed district!
to retire from their pMs for a time so
that their prevna-e uuiv ii.-l bo made
the evctise tor further disorder. Ills

SILVER MEN DEFIANT.
Srntor Dulwil! Voireit th Sent linrnl f

t asiiixotox, Nov. ii. Secretary
Carlisle's New York Chamber of Com
merce speech has elicited responsive
tleuance from the silver msn of the
senate. They are emphatic in assert-
J.ig that the greenbacks cannot be re
tired. Their program, however, goes
much further than merely blocking
the way to the accomplishment of the
administration s plans.
"We are determined," said Senator
Dubois of Idaho, "to provide for the
revenues Dy placing a duty on wool.
in doing this we not only relieve tho
treasury, but we do an act of justice
to every sheep raiser In the country
and remove the cloud of bankruptcy
iromtiie great randies of the West.
Senator Sherman will have to support
tho proportion, for bis State is vitally
concerned. This wool bill will go to
me .-resilient, and, oi course, He will
veto it. Then tbo Republican Con
gress, having done its duty iu the
premises, can afford to let him find
his way out of his ullliculty as best he
can. He will issue more bonds and
that will revive tho whole silver nues
ttou again. Secretary Carlisle is right
wnen tie says the question of free
and unlimited coinage of silver is not
dead. Ho will find, if be only waits
long enough, tiiat the National con
vention of his own party will adopt a
free coinage platform next spring.

FEAR A PRELIMINARY.
Morgan Wnlin Knamlcntinii to Snve In
rt'Ciiatlon ami i Iynrhlns-
Omaha, Xob., Nov-, l. George Mor
Kft.ii, the man under arrest for the mur
der of little Ida Gaskill, was taken
from the county ja.il this morning and
hurriedly driven to the police station,
where he waived a preliminary ex
amination, lie was hurried back to
the jail again and very few people knew
what had been done.
County officials still fear that if a
good opportunity were presented the
people of Douglas county would make
It unnecessary to go through the for
malities of a trial in Morgan's case.
There have been no demonstrations
during the past few weeks, but as it
does not take long to get a mob to
gether, every precaution is being taken.
Morgan stated that he waived a pre
liminary examination under Instruc
tions from his attorneys. Judge Berka
bound him over to the district court
to appear forthwith on the charge of
murder In the first degree, without bail.
Morgan was arraigned several day3 ago
before Judge Berka, but at that time
his attorney refused to waive the pre
liminary examination. Since then,
however, It lias been shown the ai
torncy that if the details of the crime
were related In the police court In the
presence of the public, much indigna
tlor. would be amused and Morgan's
life might be placed in jeopardy.

county considerable .money. Hazelett
claims to have shot In selfdefense and
his witnesses today testified strongly tc
that effect.
