HAVANA , Cuba. , ( by way of Tampa , 1'la. )
Sept. 25. ( New York World Cablegram-
Special Telegram ) A big Spanish column
Is reported to have gene over to the Insur
gents bodily In Santa Clara province. Gen
eral Weyler's staff ofllcers vehemently deny
the storj- , hut there Is unmistakable anx
iety In official quarters regarding the col
umn's fate The tone left Remedies about
a month ago under Colonel Lara , with In-
fitructlons to raid and burn the Insurgent
hospitals In the Saguaim mountains. No
advices have been received since then.
Another rumor afloat Is that Colonel Lazi.
after having routed Qulntln Handera nt the
head of n strong rebel force near Manlcar-
augua , marched Into the Saguana hills ,
seized the insurgent positions and holds
them , awaiting reinforcements.
The steps taken by the Spanish authori
ties to enforce the collection of full taxes
upon plantations already destroyed by the
rebel torch have led to the sale of 133 es
tates In Santa Clara province , the majority
of them lu the Saguana district. Most of
these properties are going Into the handset
ot agents ot an English syndicate under tax
deeds from General Wcyler's revenue col
lectors This company Is understood to be
preparing on the restoration of peace to go
extensively Into sugar cane planting on the
Island
WEYLER PREPARES TO DIE.
W'ij'ler promises once more to fight Macco
nnd the-ro Is great actlvlly at the palace ,
which Is thiongcd with staff ollicers mak
ing preparations to lake the field , hut Wcy-
Icr himself Is not happy. He realizes the
bayard of the step , and for s-ome nights ho
has only found sleep through chloial
Franelsco Dee-astro , an official notary public ,
was summoned to the palace Wednesday and
shown Into We-yler's private apartments
The memorandum of his will lay before the
captain general. He leaves everything to his
children , his wife- being the executor. He-
fore leaving Havana , he will confess to the
bishop , who will bless the troops In the
name of the pope
His Intimate friends fear for htm. Thcj
say ho Is dating on the battlefield , and
determined on sweeping clean Pinar del
Rio province of rebels The Spaniards gen
erally , however , are greatly elated over a
prospective victory , predicting an ignomini
ous defeat of the rebels and u finishing blow
to the Cuban Insurrection. As soon as the re-
Infoiccmcnls on Iho way arrive and are dis
tributed General Weyler will leave Havana
at the head of 1,000 men. The recent dyna-
mlto explosions made him change his plan
of going hy rail , and he will follow the
highway towaid Guanajay , Marlel , Arte-
moala and Majana , the trocha line , where
he will be reinforced hy 1,000 additional
men. Proceeding west , his march probablj
v,111 be undisturbed until he Is within reach
of Cnndclarla and San Cristobal , where he
Is likely to be harrassed hy the troops of
Perleo Delgudo , who holds the heights of
CnscaraJIcara , Hrujo and Cifco with 2,000
men , the former being strongly fortified.
PLENTY OF CHANCE TO FIGHT.
As Wojlei's avowed object Is to meet
Macco , ho will pay no attention to Dclgadn ,
unless forced to fight , continuing his march
westward towad Paso Real do San Diego ,
vvheio Vicente Nunez , nt the head of 3,000
men holds the G.ilr. a hylght within bight
of Paso Real. Nuncv. Is a hard lighter and
will tiy to force Woylcr to fight. If Weylei
can avoid him he will continue westward
toward Consolaclon del Sur , where Robert
Hermudez , at the head of 2,000 men , will he
\ in waiting for him , fortified on the Sunii-
deio heights.
If Weyler reaches Consolaclon , the pros
pect of lighting Maceo w 111 be near. Pro
ceeding to Plnar del Rio and Guano ho will
come within sight of El Resolladero whelo
ho can meet Maceo at thu head of 8,000 men ,
If ho pleases. The Indications are that
there will be no fight between Wcyler's and
Maceo's Immediate forces Wejlor Is too
vvlso to try to storm El Rosolladcro , a
high mountain , accessible onljby two pali-
vvaj'B , to reach which manj- mlles of roc-ky
ground must bo traversed under lireof these
above. Macco probably will not descend to
an open Held and meet an enemy two or
three times fore numerous than his force
and better equipped and drilled.
Therefore Wejler's march Into Plnar del
Illo will prove a failure , and dlthough a de
cided defeat ot the rebels will be announced ,
the Cubans will continue to hold their for
tified heights , and It will be once marc
proved that It Ls practically Impossible to
end the Cuban revolt by a military victory
over the rebels.

to admit the sons of Odd Follows at 18
years of age , to glvo grand bodies the right

dispense an aged Odd Fellows fund , under
certain conditions , for the relief ot these
brothers who have served twcntj-'flvc jcnrs
In the order and who have been deprived of

LDADVILLK , Sept. 23. Under the latest
orders of General Brooks this city was today
placed under the control of a provost guard
or military pollco force.
Great pressure has been brought to bear
upon Edward Hoycc , president of the West
ern Federation ot Miners , to Induce him to
ur.o his Influence with the Lcadvlllo Miners'
union to call the strike off. He refused
and said that not 5 per cent of the miners
would vote to call the strike off.
An attempt will be made today to have
the accused men admitted to bail. Judge
Owcrs will probably grant the application.
It Is expected that General Urooks will
have them Immediately rcarrcsted. They
may then obtain writs of habeas corpus.
Should General Brooks Ignore such writs
ho will be cited for contempt of court and
the governor's right to place the community
under military rule will be reviewed In
court. The case Is likely to reach the supreme
premo court on a writ of error.
The cnsci of the olllcers of the Miners'
union who are under arrest came up In
the dlsti let court today on an application by
their counsel for their release on ball. The
sheriff and the city marshal , being exam
ined , sild they had arrested the men on
the advice of the district attoincj- . The dis
trict attorney moved that the cases bo
nolled , tnus confessing that he had no evi
dence against the pilsoncrs. Judge Owers
denied the motion , but said he would re
lease the prisoners under bonds
The Hist delegation of seventy-five miners
from Missouri arrived over the Denver &
Rio Grande railroad at 4 20 p. m The train
was a special , and was met at Malta , three

the seventy-five miners were surrounded by
soldiers and taken to the Emmett mine. As
they proceeded along the street friends of
the strikers crowded closclj- upon the troops
and poured abusive epithets alike upon min
ers and mllltla. One olllccr finally drew his
sword , striking one of his tormentors across
tin- face with the flat side of the sword. The
order was given lo charge the crowd with
gun butts and push them back to give room
for the marching column The march was
then resumed without further Incident

CHICAGO , Sept. 25. Two men carefully
disguised committed a daring robbery nt
the Union Foundry company's olllco In
Hilghton park tills afternoon , robbing tlic
company of $1,000. They then iscapecl by
means of a buggy , but not before they hail
shot cno man anil flrcd several shuts Into
a crowd of people who were chasing them
A patrol wagon gave chase , but illd not
succeed In capturing the robbers.
The foundry Is In a lonesome place at
the extreme end of the llrlghtun park , ami
no other buildings arc near It. In the
ofllco when the robbers entered wore D V.
O'Neill , president of the company ; M. A.
O'ltourkc , treasurer ; C. II. Hopku , general
superintendent ; Charles O'Qormati , clerk ,
and John O'Neill , clerk Mr. O'Rourhc was
engaged In filling the envelopes of the men
preparatory to pajlng off , and the top of
his desk was covered with money The
robbers compelled the live men to line up ,
and , while one kept them covered with two
big revolvers , the other scooped tip nil the
money In sight about $1.000 and then both
made a dash for the door. They had left
a buggy standing near the building and ,
springing Into It , they drove rapidly north
1
across the prairie.
As soon as the men , one of whom was
tall and the other short , vveio out of the
olllce , Hopkc dashed Into the shop to ,
gho the alarm to the seventj-tlvo workmen
employed there , while President O'Neill and
O'ltourkc , grabbing revolvers , started In
pursuit. O'ltourkc pointed his revolver at
them and pulled the trigger , but the weapon
failed to explode O'Neill , however , sent
shot after shot at the robbers as he ran
along the road behind the buggy , but none
of them took effect The "short" man ,
standing up In the buggy , also fired both his
revolvers , and when the chambers weic
empty he reloaded The "long" man. who
had thrown bis revolver Into the bottom ofi
the buggy paid no attention to the shoot
ing , but kept on driving the horse at a
terrific rate of speed A large crowd was
after them In a few minutes and by the
time the robbers turned Into Thirty-sixth
street , they were confronted by a crowd of
fully 100 men. The pursuers steadily In
creased until a crowd of several hundred
people followed close behind Men in
wagons and bicyclers by the score took up
the chase , but the robbers' horse was a
good one and outran all of them.
In a short time the pitiol wagon fiom the
Ilrlghton park police station was upon the
scene and although the thieves had a long
start. It kept after them on a full tun. At
Thirty-sKth street and California avenue ,
the buggy lipped over and threw the lobbeis
Into the street. The natrol wagon was
not far behind at this time and It was
thought they could be captured. Tin
thieves , however , quickly picked themselves
up and dashing across the prairie came out
on Grand avenue. Near the corner stood
Frank Nyhofl'a milk wagon and the robbers
leaped In. The bhoit man drew a small
revolver and fired one shot at Njhoft , the
bullet taking effect In his right leg above
the knee. The robbeis whipped up the
horse , which was a spirited one , and up
to a late hour had not been captured.
Later the horse and wagon of the milkman
were found standing In an alley In the
bottom of the tipped-over buggy were found
two daik false beards , a blonde wig and
the four big revolvers used by the robbers

and sarcasm , and evoked much cheering
Continuing hla criticism , he took up Mr
Divan's reference to Henry Ward Hcccher ,
in which Mr Ilryan wished for the presence
of the preacher , and said"During the
fiat money and unlimited currency excite
ment of 1877 , Mr. Hcccher delivered a fa
mous sermon on Thanksgiving day of the
jear on the perils of the hour In It he
used this language which I commend to the
study of the popullstle candidate for the
presidency , since he has called Henry Ward
Hcccher as witness'Whoever ' tampers

to icturn their aid by base treachery Is to
deserve an Infamy as deep as the lowest
depths of hell. Hut woo to those men ,

Much cheering was elicited hy this quota
tion and the ciowd was convulbcd when the
speaker added"If Mr. Hryan ever sayb
again after this has appeared In print that
Hi other is a good platform for the common
pcoplo to stand upon , ho hat ) more gall than

When Mr Depcw finished there were
cries of "Hanim , " which continued until that

j HOSTON. Sept. 23 Mr Hrjnn's evening
meeting In the old-fashioned Music hall to
night was sensational In the extreme ami
may lead to trouble tomorrow.
, The place has a capacity of about 1000
people under ordlnarj circumstances. An
hour before the candidates' party airived
tvvo-lhlrds of the seats were filled by tlckct-
holders and hundreds were standing.
The storm uf applause and cheering which
J'r Williams' name- evoked lasted fully five
minutes. At Its conclusion Mr. Williams
began what proved to be a most sensational
speech. The democratic state convention
will be held heiu tomorrow and frequent
allusion to parties to be piomlnent In U
were made by members of the audience. In
the course of his speech Mr Williams said
"I am surprised at the want of intelli
gence which is dlsplajed by some members
of our community , who appeal to be easilj
bcodw Inked 1 am surprised that the Atchison -
son stockholder of Huston are listening to
the frantic appeals of the various ofllclale
who defrauded them of their hard earned
money ( Great applause nnd cheers )
\\hat do the stockholders of Massachusetts
say to the fact that only two jcats age
one-quarter of the railroads of this counlrj
were In the hands of receivers1' Is that
to the Interest of the Investors of New Eng
land' No , there Is hut one class that prof
Its bj the bankruptcy of railroads , and
that Is the class of rallioad wreckers nnd
rc.rganlzcrs , of which the king of American
finance , J Plerpont Morgan ( hisses and ap
plause ) Is the head. " ( Grcal applauseanil
a voice "We will kill his fi lends tomor
row. " )
Mr. Williams then addressed himself to to
monow's convention and said : "Men ap
pointed to carry out the will , who are
openly declaring tholr opposition to Ihc de
mocracy and their puipusu to defeat It , hold
their places In the paitj * organization in
order to defeat Ihe eauso which is laid down
In the national platfoim adopted at Chicago.
( Applause. ) I have gene forwaul In this
leadeishlp. ( Great applause and cheering. )
I have not ceased to hate and defy thu
traitors who hold our party organisation
( great applause and cheering ) , and they are
now at this very moment with a gold stand
ard majorlly undertaking lo defeat our
rights In that convention tomonow. " ( Howls
and hisses. )
He then criticised the method of distrib
uting tickets to the convention and added
"I wiote lo Ihe major ot the city of Hos-
tou ( a btorm of hisses ) , pleading to him for
an honest convention nnd sajlng that we
should hold him peisonnlly responsible' ( ap
plause and cries of "Good" ) for upset
ting the will of this convention. He
and those he Is leading for ho Is the leader ,
I tell you , of that side let him hide no
longer. ( Applause and hisses ) Ho and his
men decided that they would keep up their
fraudulent methods until tomonow Now ,
whal I propose , Is this- That when this
meeting Is ended , these who hold credentials
In this house , shall remain heie" ( Greal
applause and crlej of "Wo will " )
Here the song of "Wo Won't Go Home
Until Morning" was started , and for a few
minutes nothing but applause and the sing
ing could bo heard. When Mr. Williams
piocurcd order , he continued
"I ask them to icmaln hero to hold a
meeting either for the drafting of a bill of
equity to bo presented to n Judge tomorrow
morning to secure their rights or else If ,
when jou arc gathered jou deem it best
to remain In this hall until 11 o'clock to-
moirow. ( Gical aplauso and cries of "Wo
will do It. " ) I will pay for the breakfasts
though I cannot provide them " ( Great ap
plause and enthusiastic cheering ) Then a
scone of confusion followed. The band
In the gallery starled up the tuna "Hold
the Foil for I am Coming" and the crowd
stood on the chairs and jelled themselves
hoarse.
An appeal to the pollco to clear the house
was made , presumably hy the gold element
but the pollco ilecllneU to Interfcie. Then
the delegates sent for moats anil prcpaied
to camp all night. Whllo the excitement
during Mr Williams' speech was at Its
height , Mr Scwall , and latrr Mr Ilrjan.
appeared and were greeted with uproarious
applause. Later at night the mombcis of
the Hlmctalllc union entertained Mr firjan
