LONDON , Jan. 22. The Press association
has a telegram from Cowes , Isle of Wight ,
saying ( lint news has been received at Os-
berne that Prince Henry ot Ilattenburg , hus
band of Princess Beatrice of England , who
went to Ashanteui In a special capacity and
who contracted fever thirc , Is dead , Prlnco
Henry was the third son of Prince Alex
ander of Battr-nburg , uncle of Ludwlg IV ,
grand duke of HesseHe married the
Prlncss Hcalrlcif In 18S5. They have four
children. Ho waj born October G , 1858 , and
was governor of the Isle cf Wight and
Caresbrook.
The news of the death of Prince Henry of
Battenburg was received at Osborne , Isle of
Wight , today. The queen and princesses are
prostrate-d with grief. It appears that the
prince had a relansci yesterday while on
board the British crulsor Blonde on her way
I M to Madeira. In spite of the efforts of the
p , g surgeon In attendance and of the ship's sur-
jrM gcon , the prince dle < l at 9 o'clock yesterday
morning. The Blonde then returned to
Sierra Leone , on the coast of Africa , from
which place Iho news was cabled to the
admiralty and was by that department com
municated to the queen and to the prince
of Wales.
The Blonde reached Sierra Leone this
morning. The end of Prince Henry was
peaceful.
The first lord of the admiralty , Sir George
Gnsschen , after consulting with the queen ,
hai given Instructions that the Blonds be
ordcted to bring the remains of the prince
to England.
POPULAR WITH HIS ACQUAINTANCES.
The greatest rorrow Is manifest throughout
the Isle of Wight at the- death of Prlnco
Henry and flags everywhere are at half
mast.
Thfl death of Prince Henry will make a
decided difference in the court plans. The
period of mourning for the late prince will
t-xtcnd over the coming season and all draw
ing rooms have been abandoned.
While Prince Henry of Battcnburg was
unpopular on the whole with the people ,
principally because ha was a poor German
pi-luce and therefore considered unworthy of
the hand of a princess of the royal house of
England , ho was well liked by all those who
had the pleasure of knowing him personally.
He was a splendid , athletic looking man , a
good sportsman and ho sailed his own yacht
skillfully. To those around him ho was un
pretending and considerate and ho was a
great favorite with the queen.
He ranked as colonel of an Isle of Wight
volunteer regiment and was attached to the
expedition In a special capacity , although
his rank would have entitled him to assum
ing the position of second In command.
But , of course , this would never have been
tolerated by the press.
The prince arrived at Mansu , Ashantee , In
comoany with Sir Francis Scott and staff
and Prince Christian of Schlcswlg-Holsteln
from Akrofut on the evening of December
] 8. after an arduous march of twenty-one
miles. The road for a great part lay through
forest and bush , and the heat was very op
pressive. But Prince Henry accomplished
the Journey In safety , although ho ccm-
pl-ilncd of the heat. The next morning In
order to avoid the heat aa much as possible.
Prlnco Henry started In advance of the staff
with Prlnco Christian , but otherwise the
two were treated exactly as the ofier offi
cers , all of whom traveled In hammocks ,
each carried hy four men , the bearers being
changed at Intervals )
SENT BACK TO THE COAST.
At NylM , Prince Henry bepnn to suffer
from swamp fever and on January 9 It was
decided best to send him back to the coast.
The prince , however , for a long tlmo re-
Bitted all fuch propositions and It was only
when his condition became really dangerous
that he consented to go to the rear In charge
of a special surgeon with a small escort.
In order not to alarm -her majesty and
Princess Beatrice , the real condition of the
prince's health wag r.ot made known to her.
It was Mated that ho was only suffering from
a slight attack of 'ever. The prince , however -
ove-r , grew worse , and It was finally de
termined to send him to the Iriand of Ma
deira , on board the British cruiser Blondo.
The prince rallied somewhat af ir ho got
to sea , but a relapse followed yesterday and
In splto of everything done to sive him ,
expired at 9 o'clock lost evening. The Blonde
thereupon put about for Slerre Leone , and the
IIOWH of the prince's death was ejb'od to Eng
land. The prince died peacefully , leaving
kind messages for those at home.
The Princess Beatrice , his wlfo , wa.i upon
the point of starting for the Island cf Ma
deira In bt'dor to nurse her husband , \vhen
the new of the death reached Osborne house
md plunged the royal family Into the deepest
grief.
The death of Prince Henry la the ono
great topi ? In the press and In public today.
The review of the flying squadron now at
Bplthcad , which was to have taken place today -
day off Osborne previous to the departure
of the war ships for Bantry bay , Ireland ,
' , has been postponed on account of the- death
n f the prince and nil the royal navy and
military stations throughout the country
arc * ( lying flagi at half mast , and showing
other marks of respect for the dead. Many
nf the fashionable- west end ptores were
closed as won as the nous of the death
of Prince Henry became known and their
example was fpllowed by a number of largo
and small mercantile establishments. On the
government buildings flags worn half mastpd ,
bells were- tolled , ambassadors . , ministers
and all of the rcprcMntatlvo bodies ot Lon
don and other cities sent messages of sym
pathy to Ocborno house. *
The- newspapers of this city announce
L , the prlnro's death with Inverted rules and It
2 ? la safe tc say that even those who have
been the most active In ridiculing Prlnco
Henry now recognize the fact that he prob-
\ t ably died In an attempt to prove that ho was
4 not unworthy of the esteem of her majesty's
mibjecta.
DETERMINED TO GO THROUGH.
Dlnp-itches received from Sierra Lsone
later In the day contained further details
uf the death of Prince Henry nf nation-
burg , The prince , It appears , was greatly
upset at the speedy death of his filcnd
Major Ferguson , who was attarked with
fever while- out walking with the prince.
The latter continued on the march until
within th'rty mile * of Coomassle , wlu-re ho
became seriously 111 suddenly and the
officer In command Insisted that he should
be Immediately conveyed back Prcnseau ,
Wlinu the prince reached hero his condi
tion was desperate- and the doctors almost
despa'red of being able to get him back to
the coast , Prlnpe Henry , however , rallied
slightly befo'o reaching Capo Coast castle.
Although sick unto death , the prince did
everything possible to prevail upon his
medlci ) attendants and the roniiuandlng
olllcora to allow h m to remain until the >
Hews reached Capo CoaFt of the entry of

LONDON , Jan. 22. G. W. Smsllcy , cor
respondent of the London Times , cabled from
Washington to his paper today as follows :
"Tho full forcn of the English objection to
the Venezuelan commission has never , 1
think , been appreciated here. Americans
nro surprised when they are told that Eng
lish recognition of the commission Is Im
possible. They hardly understand why they
should bo warned by a London evening paper
that an American claim to determine a Brit
ish boundary Is ono which cnuld only bo
conceded after defeat In a long war , and
that If such a demand was made by any
other power It would bo met by handing
tliolr ambassador his passports and mobiliz
ing a fleet. Such language cloeu not clarify
the vision of the Americans , It
simply creates Irritation and resent
ment. The writer raid It might
have reached the American mind It he had
merely asked what Americano would say
If the casa were reversed and If England
should appoint a commission to determine
the boundary of an American state.
"Justice Brewer's letter Is discussed hero
as If It embodied a perfectly natural appeal
for the friendly co-operation of England In
the work of the committee. That also Is
the view of the administration , "
Mr. Smalley suggests that , In view of a
sincere dcslro In Washington to wo the full
text of the British case , that Lord Salisbury
publish the documents as a supplement to
the London Gazette. Mr. Smalley contin
ues : "Thoro Is hero a real desire to see his
whole case. This dcslro Is officlil as well
aa general ; the documents are not wanted
for controversial purpoi > cs , but as helpful to
an amicable adjustment , and now , moro
strongly than over , this government Is pre
pared to look on all the technical points re

CAP13 COAST CASTLE , British West Af
rica , Jan , 22. The following details of the
palaver between Sir Francis Scott , com
mander of the British expeditionary force ,
and King Prempeh of Ashautee , when the
latter made his submission to Great Britain
at CoDmasalo , liavo just bqen received from
that capital.
The troops formed In the principal square
of Coomasslo at 7 o'clock on the morning
of Monday last , preparatory to the grand
palaver. Sir Kranclo Scott and his staff were
seated In a scml-clrclo In Ihc cquaro.
Shortly afterward an officer was Bant to
the palace with Instructions to press upon
the mind of King Prempeh that If ho did
not appear before the British commander
within five minutes after this summns ho
would bo taken from hie palace by force.
The king made a show of resistance , but
finally accompanied the officer , surrounded
by an escort , to the square. .
Arriving there , the king took his Doat
upon the stool of state. After a few formal
words had passed between "the king and Sir
Francis through the Interpreters , the king
descended from the stool and , shook hands
with the British commander. The litter
was then Introduced to the BrltU-h gov
ernor , who elated the negotiations which
have been conducted between the reprenanta-
tlvea of England and Ashantee , ending by
Informing the king that he must formally
submit to Great Britain and give up Imme
diately 50,000 ounces of gold as Indemnity
for the expenses Incurred by the British
government In pending an expedition to
bring his majesty to terms. The king was
alto Informed that ho must keep the streets
clean , maintain order among the populace
and that ho would he held responsible for
any disturbance among the natives , King
Prempeh. waj greatly Impreirxjd by the show
of force In the square , the Maxim guns be
ing conveniently posted and every yard be
ing utilized by the British and their native
allies.
KING READY TO SUBMIT.
Finally the king replied that he was ready
to submit to the British , took off his crown
and santlals and advanced to the seats ,
foimed by , biscuit boxes , upon which Sir
Francis Scott and the governor were seated ,
surrounded by their staffs. His majesty
then placed his head between the feet otSlr
Francis Scott and those of the British gov
ernor , clasping them with his hands and
actually groveling In the dust as a mark of
his complete submission to the power of the
queen of England. This display of helpless
ness upon the part of , the king
gicatly Impressed the Asnantees pres
ent. They .were greatly agitated
and talked excitedly together. But
they made no attempt at resistance , a step
which would have been useless In the face
of the British expedition and the deadly
rapid-firing guns.
The governor finally made the king arise
and recalled to his majesty's" mind that he-
had been requested to Immediately pay 50-
000 cunccs of gold to 'the representatives of
England. In reply his majesty , who was
greatly agitated , said he only possessed
3,800 ovnces of gold , and that he had no
means of collecting the 50,000 ounces de
manded by the British. To this the governor
replied that such a statement was merely
child's play and that the demands of the
Urlt'sh ' must be complied with , as the king's
ability to pay the amount demanded was
too well known to admit of any discussion.
King Prempeh then asked for time , but
the governor answered that upon a previous
occasion the Ashantees had failed to keep
their promises .made to the .British and the
latter had no Intention of giving them the
opportunity of doing the fame thing again.
The governor then abruptly announced that
the king , 'tho ' queen , her mother and the
king's father , with the other chiefs of Im
portance present , would be taken prisoners
under escort fo Cape Coast castle.
TlfOOPS WERE READY.
The governor's words fell like a thunder
bolt upon the assemblage of Ashantee na
tives and there was an Impetuous movement
forward which bodeJ trouble. But the troops ,
which had been at "ground arms , " were
prtmptly to "car y arms" and the machlne-
llko precision with which the Martini-Henry
carbines were lifted from the ground to the
carry struck dismay into the Ashantees and
probably averted serious trouble , for they
fell back as If fearing a volley. One of the
chiefs , however , rose from his seat near the
king and uttered some words In a loud tone
of voice. These were Interpreted as saying
that they complained that ; ho replies which
their ambassador had brought back from
Great Britain-had misled them and that the
Ashantees were 'therefore ' not to blame.
The govcrncr , In reply , said that their am-
baspadors would also be made prisoners and
taken to Capo Coast castle , whore they will
bo charged with forgery" In having signed
their names , apparently , to documents of n
misleading nature. It Is also claimed that
these ambassadors were not really the chiefs
they represented themselves to be , but men
of a much lower rank.
A strong guard of British troops then
moved forward and surrounded the
queen , the queen's mother , the king's
father , the prominent ch'efs and the am
bassadors without any trouble , so sud
denly was the movement made and so ef
fectively was It carried out. The prison
ers were quickly removed to a larga houw ,
which was surrounded by the guard , and
then the Ashantees were quietly dispersed
by the trocps. From the moment the ex
pedition was first organized until It
reached Coomasslo It has not been necesv
sary to fire a single shot. It may bo said
that the submission and capture * of King
Prempeh will Insure British supremacy In
that part of Africa for many years to
come. Ills majesty , his relatives and the
chiefs captured will bo kept at Cape Coast
castle until the 50,000 ounces of gold de
manded by the British government are
forthcoming and until all flip other ques
tions connected with the expedition and
Its objects have been arranged , The Ash-
untoe ambassadors who are accused of
having misled their people will be tried
and If found guilty , severely punished ,
Near Coomasslo the Brlt'sh ' discovered and
burned the notorious sacrificing grove full
of skulls and bones of the victims of the
king. The making of human sacrifices was
one of the leading complaints vhlch the
British had against King Prempeh and his
predecessors , and this practice has mow
been stopped ,

Advices today from the province of Matan
zas say Colone-t Vicuna yesterday morning
met the Insuigent leader Perez at the head
of about 1,200 men on the rend bitween I'c-
droso and Balondron. The Insurgents occu
pied a fortlfi .d farm at Vista Alegre , and
after an hour's fighting , during which the
enemy made a strong resistance , the troops
dispersed the Insurgents , who fled In differ
ent directions , leaving twelve killed and
seven wounded on the field and carrying
away many more of their wounded men. The
loss * of the troops Is1 said to have been so
small as not to be worth mentioning.
It became known today that the engage
ment at Talron ( not Tlrado ) , just south of
Plnar del Rio , between the insurgents under
Maceo and the Spaniards under General
Luquo on Sunday last , was more Important
than at first believed , The Insurgents are
now said to have lost 200 killed , The bodies
of 170 dead were found afterward on differ
ent parts of the ground abandoned by the
Insurgents.
The report that Rabl , ono of the leaders
of the second Insurgent army now advancing
westward , was wounded In thelust engage
ment with tin Spaniards Is confirmed.
General Luis Pando , wno arrlycd here yes
terday evening , said In an interview today
that ho had come to Havanb In obedience
to the orders of his superiors to act as co
adjutor to General Marln In the temporary
command of Cuba , pending' the arrival hereof
of General Weyler , the new captain general
of Cuba , when General Paudo'will be suc
ceeded by General Suarez Valdcz. General
Pando announced himself In favor of con
centrating and strengthening his forces In
the province- Plnar del Rio. He Is well
acqualntsil with that province , , and with Its
peculiar political sympathies and conditions ,
and anticipates being able to call all the
loyal population to arms in support of the
Spanish government.
General Pando Is anxious to go to Plnar
del Rio , but should his- superiors decide oth
erwise , ha was willing to resume command
In the province of Santiago 'de ' Cuba , In spite
of the fact that 9,000 troops have already
been taken away from that part of the
Island. But this withdrawn ! of. the military
from Santiago de Cuba , General Pando ex-
plalns , has not resulted.In any further out
breaks of lawlessness. On the ! .contrary , he
said the country Is wearlngja bright aspect.
Naturally the peaceful statei'n the province
of Santiago do Cuba Is greatly duo to the
fact that ths Insurgent armies under Gomez
and Antonio Maceo , Jose Maceo and Rabi , in
moving westward , took with , them nearly
every man capable of bearing , arms , whoso
sympathies were with the Insurgents. Thus
while the troops In that'- province were
largely withdrawn to reinforce those In other
provinces , the Insurgents and the friends ot
the insurgents In Santiago do Cuba have
been still more largely drawn" upon , enabling
the peaceful Inhabitants to refiurue-itliclr usual
occupations.
General Pando spoke in terms of praise of
the bravery and courage of the Spinlsh troops
In his command. He says thSt theiraw young
soldiers endured hunger and thirst , slckneia
and fatigue , without complaint and that no
troops In the. world could have behaved bet
ter or accomplished more undnr.tho circum
stance ? . In thls statement , It may , be afldexl.
General Pando Is sustained hy "reports of
other generals arjd-.by thok..remarks of disin
terested persons who havo'been-'eye witnesses
of the operations against the'Insurgents. The
whole trouble seems to bs summed up In
the fact that the Spanish Infantry , although
well handled and brave , has been unable to
cope successfully with' ' the equally well
handled and bravo mounted Insurgents , but
General Pando claims that in uplte of this ,
If the insurgents can be driven to fight a
pitched battle , the Spaniards will defeat
them In short order , even though the enemy
may bo in larger number ,
Concerning the advance- the Insurgent
army under JoseMaceo and Rabi , PanAo
fays that this force was trylng to convey
westward a considerable quantity of arms ,
ammunition and other supplies intended for
the insurgents In this province and Plnar del
Rio. But , the general added , Maceo and
Rabl have been engaged several times with
the Spaniards since they entered the province
of Santa Clara and a considerable portion of
the war material has been either captured
or lost enrouto. The Spanish/troops are being
massed across the line of march , which the
second army of the Insurgents Is expected
to follow and General Panda anticipates that
they will bo ableto prevent a Juncture with
the Insurgents under General Gomez.
Jose Macoo , who was severely wounded
some tlmo ago , Is said to have almost re
covered his health and to b'eTable to ride
his horse dally on the march. . .General Pando
pen-anally prevented the landing 'of at least
one Important expedition sent ( o the province
of Santiago de Cuba , and ho .anticipates , aa
the second Insurgent army moves westward ,
that no further expeditions are likely to
land In Santiago de Cuba or , Santa Clara.
Therefore , he Judged further ; troops would

In the general's opinion , the insurrection
Is completely ended so far as the province of
Santiago de Cuba Is concerned , and ho as
serts that thereIs very little activity among
the insurgents remaining in'the eastern part
of the provinceof Santa Olara.
When asked for his opinion of General
Valerino Weyler , the- captain general of
Cuba General Pando , said he is a highly
distinguished and able officer , and the very
man ho would have selected for the post had
ha been In a position to-wake the choice.
General Pando refused to1 discuss the plans
likely to bo adopted by theSpantsh ; com-
mandeni In the future for the suppression of
the- Insurrection , but there was no doubt
ing from his manner , that heIs confident
of the success of the Spanish army when

CHICAGO , Jan. 22. When the delegates
to the national convention of manufacturers
assembled In Central Music hall today there
was a noticeable Increase- the attendance.
The morning session was devoted to the
reports of committees on resolutions and
revision of the constitution. Doth I'ro'l-
dent Dolan In his address and the executive *
committee In Its report urged the advisa
bility of allowing Individual representation
In the association by manufacturing concerns.
U Is estimated that at least $500,000,000 of
Invested capital Is represented at the con
*
vention. Preliminary to today's proceedings
a telegram was read from the St , Louis
club as follows :
"Lot our only war with England be a com
mercial one , with a flying squadron of our
manufacturers In every foreign market. "
It was received with applause.
Charles Heher Clark then read the report
of his special committee on the
Oriental manufacturing Industry. II
showed the wonderful Increase In
manufacturing In the Orient , e po-
clally In Japan , In the past ten years
and predicting still more rapid Increases In
the near future. The report says : "There
can bo no concealment of the fact that some
of our manufacturing Industries are greatly
menaced by the rivalry of A country where
labor can ba had at a cost of 10 or 15 cents
a day , or less than one-tenth of the cost of
such labor In our own country. "
The- report presented n resolution that
congress be requested to appoint a. commit-
leo to Inquire "respecting the Invasion of
our own market and the menace offered to
American manufacturing by the Invasion of
our own market by the products of cheap
Oriental labort and to determine what Is the
C.IUEO of this menace and what means should
bo adopted lo avert the menace to American
producers. The report was frequently In-
terruptel with applause and with one or l\\o
minor amendments was adopted without a
dissenting voice.
The committee' on resolutions presented Its
report , restating the resolution adopted at
a 'mass meeting of njanufacturers In Cincin
nati Jai.uary 22 , 1S03 , on ths cardinal basis
for the establishment of an association cf
manufacturers of the United States. These
resolutions declared emphatically for a homo
market for homo products , tor the largest
possible extension of foreign trade relations ;
for the principle- reciprocity In national
legislation ; to develop reciprocal trade rela
tions with foreign countries ; for a judicious
system of subsidies to American bhlpplng
and to restore and extend the merchant
marine ; fcr the Improvement of national
and artificial waterways and for tliu con
struction and operation of the Nlcaraguan
canal "under " the control of the fede-al gov
ernment. It also recommends that such
permanent agencies bo established as may
be beet calculated to secure the favoiable
results contemplated by the organization
and that the executive committee be em
powered to make such expenditures as maybe
bo best calculated to accomplish the ends
alined at by the association. .
These resolutions were frequently Inter
rupted by applause , particularly that part
rcfeirlng to Nlcaraguan canal , and were
adopted unanimously.
The resolution presented yesterday by
Charles Davis of Cincinnati concerning the
taxing of foreign corporations canto up , but
after considerable sharp debate was referred
back to the committee for further consider
ation.
George A. Harbour of Detroit started out
In a belligerent mood to find out why the
committee had not reported the resolutions of
the , Detroit Manufacturers' club , ftvorlng
Cuban Independence. , Hewas flnallyslnausSd
to give the committee moro time , but as a
matter of fact the committee at Its meetIng -
Ing yesterday decided lo keep Cuba In the
background.
A long debate was precipitated by the ma
jority and minority reports of the committee
on the revision of the constitution. There
wao a radical difference bstwccn them , the
majority report depriving manufacturers'
clubs or state clubs at representation and
permitting only the Individual manufacturers ,
the firms or corporations to have a voice In
the organization , while the minority report
favored a continuance of the- present plan
of club and society representation with some
modlficatlony. The majority report was
finally adopted unanimously.
A Fpeclal session was held at 3 o'clock
at which Prof , Waterhouse of St. Louis spoke
on the Nlcaraguan canal.

being loudly cheered. Blackburn got fifty-
eight votes , eleven short of election , with
Wilson's place vacant and seventeen short
