HAVANA , July 21 Further details are
constantly coming to light concerning the
notion between the Insurgents and the col
umn of Marshal Martinez Ue Campos , be
tween Manzanlllo and llayamo on July 11.
Tlio more that Is known of the action the
more lit Is seen that the captain general and
his forces were In a position of extreme
peril , and tliat It was only by the personal
leadership and military skill of de Campos
hlmso.f that the day was saved and made
nn especially glorious action for the Spanish
army
Marshal de Campos left Manzanlllo July 11
for Hayame , accompanied by fifty cavalry.
Ho arrived at Vcgultas , about half way be-
Iwetn tlio towns , at 2 o'clock In the after
noon , and received an enthusiastic reception
there. He united the co umn of Santoclldes
with 1,100 troops of the regiment of Isabe ,
Catlolca and three companies of the Ilaz sec
tion of engineers and guerillas. In Carru-
ana he received notice of the presence of
the Insurgents to tlio number of 5,000 In
ValetiztHa , near Uall and Oueyeclto. The
commanders were Antonio Maceo , Habl and
Masso.
At 9 o'clock the Insurgents were seen on
the farm of San Francisco. The troops ad
vancing were commanded by General Santo
clldes. He was at the front , and received
two gunshot wounds Sthl IIP ordered the
advance to continue , when he received a ball
In the head. Captain General dp Campos
then took command Sabana 1'urelejo , with
2,000 of the ! aurg nt cavalry , charged upon
the Spanish forces. General Campos Imme
diately formed a square , making a iieroic de
fense against the furious attack. He ordered
mules and hori.es killed , and with them and
the baggage of the troops he formed bar
ricade : to obstruct the Insurgent cavalry
charges. The latter were not able to resist
the llrlng of the Mauser rifles In the hands
of the Spaniards , and commenced to waver.
General Campos' military experience admonished
ished him to take advantage of this weak
ness , and lie Immediately charged with cav
alry , while the Infantry attacked with bay
onets nntl routed the Insurgents , who di
vided Into bands and dispersed.
Central Campos made his way forward and
arrived at 'J o'c ock at night at Uayamo ,
where he was enthusiastically received. The
troops lost , beside General Santocllles , thir
teen officers dead and wounded and seventy
Boldlers dead and about a hundred wounded
The Insurgents lost COO dead or wounded.
Brigadier Habl , Colonel Machado and Major
Moncada were killed. Among the wounded
were Captain Hamlerez and two chiefs of a
lower grade. No olflclal news of the en
gagement lias been received yet.
TAMt'A , Fla. , July 21. Passengers from
Cuba and private letters announce that Gen
eral de Campoa Is wounded and besieged In
Bayamo. The Spanish papers state that be
sides Santoclldes various other olllcers fell ,
and It Is rumored tint one of them Is the son
of Campos. Passengers claim that a railroad
car arrived at Villa Veuva station In Havana
closed so that no one knew Its contents. Some
say this car contains Campos and others
maintain that It holds the body of Ills son.
The Spanish press gives no details of the en
counter and this makes the Cubans believe
that Santoclldes' body was left In the pasics-
Blon of the Insurgents In Santa Clara.
An encounter is reported In Santiago del
Valle , In Vista Hermosa , near Santo Splrlttis ,
between 107 Spaniards , commanded by Major
Armlnan , with numerous Insurgent forces ,
commanded by Ur. Zayas. After an hour
and n half the Insurgents surrounded the
Spanish forces. The details are not given , so
the losses are'unknown
General Gomez Insists on his orders pro
hibiting the entrance of provisions In Puerto
Vrlnclpe. One of his oftlcers was hung for
disobeying these orders.
The review of the Spanish volunteers In
Havana wljl be held July 2 . The heads of
Genera-Is Sangllly and Guanalberto Gomez will
be demanded.

LONDON , July" 21 A dispatch to the
Imes from Paris gives an Interview pub-
shed by the Figaro with n brother of Nauom
Tcfukltcheff , who was arrested for compllc-
y In the murder of Stambuloff. He said thai
Is brolher Nauom was a close friend of
lajor PanlUa , who had been executed by
der of Stambuloff , but the association was
tirely one of frlendbhlp and not one of poll-
Ics. When the Panltza plot was discovered
II who had been connected with Panltza
were arrested.
"Among them. " the Interview continues ,
was my youngest brother , Deutchs , aged
1 7 , whom Stambuloff thought he could force
t o reveal Naotim's connection with the con-
piracy. Deutchs was subjected to atrocious
ortures for six months , Stambuloft employ-
ng all his Ingenuity and multiplying the
moat horrible tortures , until the execution
, ers In his presence tore the nails from the
1 amis and feet of my brother and committed
acts yet more barbarous The little fellovV
refused to accuse Nauom , and finally , exas
perated , he spat In Stambuloff's face , crying
Tyrant , I scorn you' H was his death war
rant Stambuloff bathed him In kerosene
nd burned him alive In October , 1892. "
Tefukltchcff concluded that nevertheless
neither Nauom nor his followers were con
nected with the murder of Stambuloff , which
hey deprecated as likely to cause a reaction
n his favor , while they hoped that their
brother would be avenged by the condemna-
llon of Stambuloff.

PLATTSBURG , N. Y. , July 21 St. John's
church was crowded to the doors today. The
sermon was delivered by Rev. P. J. Ryan ,
archbishop of Philadelphia , and every mem
ber of the Catholic summer school was pres
ent. Archbishop Ryan said In part : "While
eI pralshig I highly tha truths of the natural
world , and thai 'knowledge Is powerful' and
Ihat the more luminous and enlarged the
Intellect becomes , the more It resembles Its
dlvlno original , the omniscient God , you
forget not the still greater truths revealed
by that God concerning his own nature and
our relations to Him. He Is the fountain of
all truth , natural and supernatural , science
reveals truth , but God Is truth Itself It
Is 1 my place to speak to you of the Institution
1t
tion of the church , which was to preserve all
the 1t revelations , primitive and Jewish , and to
proclaim I the newesl and greater ones made
manifest by Jesus Christ hlmse.f and to the
kingdom ) of God on earth , prophesied by-
Daniel. I
"There are Importanl analogies belween
the Jewish and Christian churches , which
enable ' us to understand more perfectly the
latter. The Jewish church was no mere
human Institution , no mere fortuitous collec
tion of men who might agree In their In
terpretation of certain truths of revelation.
No , It was a living organism , with a divinely
constituted head , who Was the representative
of God on this earth , namely , the Jewish high
priest , who spoke with authority. But the
tame power that established H declared that
Its mission and functions were to be but
temporary The \ery date of their termina
tion was fixed by Almighty God and declared
by the Prophet Daniel. This termination
took place on y when Christ had proved that
he was the Messiah and the greit high
pi lest of the new law. The Jewish church
was succeeded by Christ himself as lawgiver ,
Jud e and ruler "
Archbishop Ryan then developed the nature
and mission of the church as the kingdom
of God on earth , as foretold In the proph
ecies , described In parables , and openly an
nounced by our divine Lord. He dwelt es
pecially on the Interpretation which Christ
himself gave of the divinity of his mission
when ho prayed that his followers might be
one. "This mark of unity i today the mos'
striking evidence of the dlvlno character o
Christ and of his church. " said he. He con
ttnupd to dpvelope his great bubject of the
Instllullon of the church and Its character
as a klndgom , and closed his sermon thus
"Now , this great Institution founded by
Christ and blessed with sueij marvelous
.nlty and stability Is precisely what Is neede <
n our ago and country , Jn order to give re
glous unity to many denominations and per
lanent stability to the stile Itself
Lei us , Ihen , go forth from this sumniei
cliool with Increased knowledge , both sacrei
nd profane , but above all things , with a pro
ound convict'on lhal we have In till ? Instltu-
? n of the church what thfe age and condl-
lon requires. Let us prove by our Individual
ves , the practical Infiuehce of that Instltu-
lon In governing and sanotlfying the Indl-

NEW ORLEANS , La. , July 21. Last Frl-
lay night on the Terre Haute plantation In
St John's Parish , n tenlble butchery of
liuman beings took place. White Rosarlo
Giordano and his family were seated at the
supper table. Joe Noska walked up to the
Jeer and levelling n double-barreled shot
gun , fired. Mrs. Giordano fell to the floor
a corpse and the bullets thai did not go
through her went through both legs of the
4-months-old Infant she held In her arms.
Giordano , fearing thai Ihe tender babe would
be killed In Ihe fall , sprang forward lo clasp
It , and the assassin then fired again. The j I
buckshot entered the groin and leg , and |
I '
Mary Giordano , the 10-yeftr-old girl , who , on
seeing her mother fall , ran forward and .
received a portion of the load of buckshot I
that struck her father. The shot entered I ,
her abdomen , literally tearing It to pieces I
At the same time , little Nlcollnl fell to the '
lloor , wounded through the head.
The astassln , Joe Noska , did not move
from the spot , but when he saw Uendltto
Giordano , a nephew of the dead woman , and
Charlie Columbine , coming toward him , ho .
cooly placed two fresh shells In his gun and
waited until they got very close to him.
Then he raised the gun and fired both bar- i
rels , the two men falling to the ground. The |
murderer , throwing his gun over his shoulder -
der , made his escape to the woods.
When the citizens ascertained the extent
of the butchery , they organized u posse , and
led by the sheriff , attempted to capture the
murderer. The wounded were brought to
the charity hospital In this city. They arei
Rosarlo Giordano , the unfortunate Lead of
the family , aged 34 , shot In the left thigh.

The two little Giordano girls nt the hospi

nol know how he had offended Noska , who
was a laborer on ( he place , excepl that on
one occablon the overseer , who is a friend
of his , told the man to do some chores

this. Giordano has been living on tlie plan

CHICAGO.Juy ) 21. It is the Intention of
the Chicago police to have II. H. Holmes ,
the Insurance swindler , here to answer the
charge of having murdered the Williams
sisters. The local officers are convinced
that the murder of the Williams girls was
the first committed by Holmes , and they
argue thai In conbequence he should bo re
quired to bland trial for It first. They also
Insist that they will be able to produce evi
dence that he did murder tha sitters. The
police are by nn means convinced by the
analysis made by a doctor on Sunday , show
ing that the substance found In the big
Move In Holmes' house was fireclay and
not humnn bones. They say that fireclay
would not become brittle In any kind cf
heat , whereas n portion of that found In the
stove ciumbled In the hands of Detective
Fltpa trick.
It developed today that the substance of
the first report of the finding of the bones of
Miiiiile Williams was In the hands of De
tective Geyer of Philadelphia. It was said
that he viiited Chicago a week ago , and
when he left carried with him positive evi
dence that a body had been burned In the
big stove In Holmes' ofilce It was al o
learned that Detective Geyer will come to
Chicago after he completes his scaich foi
[ loward PIt'.3l and will co-operate with Chicago
cage officers.
In police circles tonight It was said that
the on y hope of convicting Holmes was In
Chicago. It was paid that the Philadelphia
authorities could convict him of nothing
mere serious than Insurance swindling and
that the Canadian authorities would not go
to the expense of extraditing or trying him
'n the event t'nat Detective Geyer falls to
ilnil the body of Howard PlUel In Detroit
everything will depend on the work of the
Chicago police.
Nothing was done In the basement of th ?
Chicago house today , but tomorrow it will
begin. Tlio work tliat has been done thus
far has been without system , and It Is Just
ns likely that evidences of a crime may
be buried more deeply as that one might be
disclosed. The tank In which the explosion
took pace Saturday has been filled with
wate.- , and It will require the services of a
file engine to pump It out before investiga
tion can prcceed.
A. Mlnter , nephew of Mrs. Julia Connor ,
discredits the story that she and her daugh
ter were murdered by Holmes. He thinks
both are alive and that Mrs. Connor does
not make her whereabouts known on ac-
counl of Ihe Irouble she had with her hus
band
TORONTO , Out. July 21 By a clever
ruse Mrs. Pltzel was saved from Interview era
yesterday. A closed cab drove up to the
Rojsln house , and Detective Geyer got out t
and entered the hotel , returning In tt few
minutes with a veiled female , who. It was
announced he was taking to Detroit , and
that 11 was Mrs. Pltzel As a matter of
lact , she did not leave till this morning
There are no new developments In the case
kca'ly , nor is It expected there will be until
Holmes' Philadelphia lawyer arrives , for the
purpose of attempting to establish an a'lbl
for his client.
DETROIT , July 21. Detective Oeyer of
Philadelphia Is In the city , and will make
a further effort to flrd the body of the missIng -

beTleved that the boy was murdered In 1' Je-
troll and has several clews , but what Ihey
OK he Is nol yet ready to tell.

CHICAGO , July 21. Chester W. Rowe , the
defaulting cashier of Poweshlck county ,
Iowa , Is under arrest In the City of Mexico ,
and a largo part of the $30,000 , which ho
made away with , has been attached by Pinkerton -
kerton operatives and will likely be returned
to the county from which It was taken.
Richard Rowe , brother to the absconder , Is
also under arrest as an accomplice. It It
bomewhat doubtful , however , whether the
brothers can be taken back to Iowa for their
trial. Requisition papers were honored by the
State department- Washington and for
warded to Mexico as rapidly as possible , and
with these Detective Forse applied to the
.Mexican authorities for the arrest of the
brothers. They are locked up , but when It
came to sxtradltlng , the detectives found
themselves blocked under the Mexican law.
A foreigner may go there , renounce all alle
giance to the country from which ho came ,
become a Mexican citizen and thus avoid ex
tradition. Rowe has taken advantage of this
law , although he has only been In the City
of Mexico about three weeks. As a result
there Is likely to be a hot legal contest , In
Uilch the United States government will
probably play a prominent part Rowe dls-
appearel April 20. He and his brother at the
time of their arrest were conducting a saloon
n the City of Mexico.

Blanche Lament and Mlunle Williams , two
joung members of the congregation. Sus
picion pointed to Theodore Durrani , a young
medical student and a member of the church
At the coroner's Inquest and preliminary ex
amination it was shown thai Durrani hat
been attentive to both girls ; thai the day
Dlancho Lament disappeared he had been It
hei company , and thai on that afternoon he
wab seen In the church greatly excited and
n a disheveled condition. It was also bhown
that he had made an appointment
to meel Minnie Williams on the
night she was murdered , and wit
nebses will testify that they saw two
people resembling Miss Williams and Dur
i ant enter the church that evening Miss
Williams' purse was also found In Durrani's
possession nfler he was arrcstul. Durran
and his attorneys say an alibi can bo provcc

that there will bo considerable difficulty It

alns were asleep and Third Officer Revello
vas on watch on Ihe Ortlga and Second Offi
cer d'Amclo ; was on watch on the Maria P.
The Ortlga was going at the rate of eleven
nlles an hour and the Maria P. at the rate
of eight. Both vessels saw the lights of the
other and continued on their proper roads
till the mistake was made , It Is not estab-
Ished by whom , which brought the Maria P.
broadside toward the Ortlga. Third Officer
Revello of the Ortlga saw the danger and
ordered the engines reversed , but lee late.
The Ortlga struck the Maria P. , making an
enormous gap In her side. Although the boati
of the Orllgi were lowered and the crew
rescued all Ihey cquld of the survivors , the

state of terror since the rescue that thsy are
unable to give a single detail of the disaster.
Captain Ferrara , who was saved , said ho was
sleeping In his cabin , when ho was awakened
by cries and shouts. He rushed on deck , to
