BLANCO TO MEET GOMEZ.
Bald to Be on the Way to Make Over.
tare For peaoe.
Havana, via Key West, Jan. 26. The
news has spread In town like wildflra
that General Blanco has gone to have a
conference with General Maximo Go
mez In order to reach an understanding
with the Cuban commander and estab
liRh peace on the island. It is said here
by the Spanish authorities that this 18
an unfounded report, but upon careful
nvestlgatlon there Is no doubt that
there is something serious in the wind.
About a month ago General Blanco
received a letter from General Gomes,
In which the old veteran Invited him to
give peace to Cuba by recognizing its
Independence. The letter was very
Blmilar to the one addressed by General
Gomel to General Martinez Campos
when the former invaded the provinces
of the west at the end of 1895 and early
In 1K9S. Gomez, In his letter to Blanco,
quoted his letter to Martinez Campos
and said that "to such a brute as Wey
ler he would never address a line, but
that to other Spanish generals he
would repeat that the responsibility of,
so much bloodshed in Cuba was upon
Spain on account of her stubborn re
fusal to recognize Cuba's freedom."
The letter also said that autonomy
was and ought to be a failure, because
the Cubans desire only Independence.
On the baslB of Independence Gomez de
clared that he was ready to treat, and
that he was not Inspired by any per
sonal hatred of the Spaniards, his only
policy being not "Death to Spain," but
Liberty to Cuba.
This letter General Blanco held for
some time unanswered, but after many
consultation with Madrid and some
prominent men here he decided to ap
proach General Gomez and try to make
him accept autonomy, even If some
broader concessions should have to be
made by Spain
There Is no doubt that Gomez feels
Inclined to offer Spain an Indemnity of
1100,000,000 for the Independence of Cuba
and that the same Idea prevails in the
Cuban government, but It Is also cer
tain that he will energetically reject all
proposals of autonomy.
It Is believed here that Blanco will
send a message to Gomez from El Ju-
caro before starting to meet him. If the
Cuban leader accepts the Interview, It
will then take place at some point near
the trocha in Santa Clara province.
General Oomez is reported today very
near El Jucaro.
Rioting at HatMiai,
Riots similar to those which occurred
In Havana are taking place now in Ma
tanzas city. The uncompromising
Spaniards and the volunteers yesterday
attacked the building" -In which the
wealthy merchants of that city, Bea,
Bellldo & Co., have their office. They
also raided the office of the Aurora del
Tumuri, which Is the oldest newspaper
published In Cuba.
The regular troops fought the rioters,
making several cavalry charges.
The situation Is very grave there, be
cause the government has not such
large resources as In Havana for quell
ing the revolt. General Molina, who is
operating with his column around Ma
tanzas, was hastily summoned to the
town yesterday to re-enforce the troops.
The most terrible dynamite explosion
caused by the Cubans during the war la
just reported from Puerto Principe. A
military train was completely destroy
ed by several dynamite bombs between
I.ugareno and Kamblazo. The train
started from the port of Nuevitas bound
for Puerto Principe city, carrying -enforcements
to General Jimenez Cas
lellanoa. The armored cars were wrecked, and
so was the locomotive. The explosion
made a hole In the ground four yards
deep, and the whole track for over a
kilometer was ruined. Over 60 Spanish
soldiers and officers were killed and 40
badly wounded.
Connecticut Teroperaaoe Workers.
Hartford, Jan. 25. At the annual
meeting of the Connecticut Temperance
union, held at Memorial hall yesterday
afternoon, Treasurer Willard reported
total receipts as $3,619 and a balance ot
iSS to the 1M8 account. The union la
nonpartisan and is In touch with all
classes desiring the promotion of tem

at Bldderord, where there are strikes,
the prospects are far from ro."d for
settlement of the labor troubles In Nen
Envland this week.
The new turn of afTalrs yesterday wai
not In Massachusetts. It was In Rhodi
Island, at the Centervllle Cotton mil',
where a new strike was reported by 12!
weavers quitting work on the claim
that their cut averaged 16 per cent. . II
was also announced that a bill would
be Introduced in the general assembly
to Investigate the textile conditions in
that state.
In New Bedford a rumor was current
that one mill would break Its agree
ment and restore the old wage scale.
IJttle credence Is given to the story.
When the weavers' executive commit
tee met yesterday afternoon, the flni
Issue was not considered, showing thnl
the strikers are not Inclined to com
promise on any point.
The strike aid promised seems quits
substantial, Judging from reports given
out last night.
The action of cltlsens at large M
end the strike by asking the mill man
agements to take down their noticei
and curtail production has been i
buked by a positive refusal. In othe
mill centers there is no labor change.
BEET SUGAR CULTURE.
senator Coggeahall'a Propoaltlon to Give
Manufacturers a Bonnty.
Albany, Jan. 26. The senate finance
committee last evening gave a hearing
on the bill of Senator Coggeshall, ap
propriating $75,000 for the encourage
ment of the beet sugar project In this
state. The bill provides a bounty of 1
cent a pound to the manufacturer, the
same as last year. But $25,000 was ap
propriated last year and dhly $7,400 of
this was paid in bounties. ThlB year
the Binghamtnn factory will be In op
eration, and this and the Rome Insti
tution expect to consume 45,000 tons
of beets. Representatives of both these
factories were here to favor the bill.
No oppoRitlon to the bounty was man
ifest, hut there was some objection ex
pressed by members of the committee
to the amendment to the bill, which
provides that payment may be made In
any manner agreed upon between the
grower and manufacturer. The oppo
sition was upon the ground that the
manufacturer might compel the growev
to take all his pay In stock of the man
ufacturing concern, it being shown that
In many cases one-third payment had
been made In such stock. No definite
action was taken on the measure.

WRECK OF THE TILLIE
AN ALLEGED FILIBUSTER GOES DOWN

ft Tralt.ar on Board The Pemnna tvyne
tnlte Jack O'Brien "aid to llnre Been
Mnnnger of the Expedition.
Providence, Jan. 26. Nineteen shiver
Ins survivors are all that remain of the
crew and men in charge of the steamer
Tlllle, an alleged filibuster. The little
vessel Is at the bottom of the Atlantlo
ocean with four of her crew. It la as
serted that she had on hoard 40 tons of
dynamite, three dynamite guns and a
heavy consignment of small arms and
ammunition Intended for the Cuban
cause.
Captain John O'Brien, the famous
Dynamite Jack of Kearny, N. J., was
In charge of the Cubans who handled
the expedition. George W. Berry was
master of the ship.
From stories of the survivors It Is be
lieved the Tlllle was scuttlod by some
traitor to the Cuban cause or by a sail
or sent to accompany the expedition by
the Spanish.
The sinking of a tug engaged In fili
bustering not far from here was done
under the same circumstances early In
the Cuban war, and little doubt Is felt
that another traitor has sent another
hope for the Cubans to the bottom of
the sea.
The story that the Tlllle was pounded
to pieces by high seas Is not believed.
On Sunday morning, according to the
survivors, the Tlllle suddenly sprang a
leak. She was off Barnegat and had
been riding the storm well. Then, Just
before noon, there came a cry that wa
ter was breaking Into the hold. The
pumps were quickly manned, but at 2
p. m. the steamer was deep In the water
and staggering through the seas like
a drunken man.
Dlatreaa Signal Ran Up.
The colors were run up, union down,
and the crew of the doomed steamer
hoped for rescue until they saw the
Tlllle rapidly settling. They then
launched the lifeboat, just as the coast
Ine schooner Governor Ames, com
manded by Captain Waldemar,
down on them.
bore
The big five master ran close to the
sinking steamer and saved 19 of the 23
men on board the Tlllle. On the last
trip of the longboat It went to pieces,
and the six men it held were rescued
only after a desperate fight with the
waves.
By this time the seas were sweeping
the Tlllle from end to end, and she had
sunk to her rails. Then she plunged
and went down like a bullet, carrying
with her three Cubans and the steward.
The names of the lost Cubans arn
Horaclo Pervla, Alfred Bermudez and
A. Cancellorl, all members of the fill
blistering crew. The name of the stew
ard Is unknown.
Captain Waldemar of the Ames had
all he could do to get his vessel Intu
this port, as the wind had increased t
a hurricane. The survivors warmly
thanked him and disappeared, fearing
arrest by the federal authorities.

of his name they sprang- to their feet
Ideals of Princeton university and the
criticism so freely made of her policy.
His remarks concerning the relations
of the Presbyterian church and the
university aroused great enthusiasm.
He asserted that while he held his place
' at the head of the Institution he would
do all he could to keep the hand of ec
cleslasticism from resting on Princeton
university.
In regard to the Princeton Inn con
troversy he said;
"I shall not Indulge In harsh language,
though I am tempted to be Indignant
when I think how good men have been
maligned and pure motives have been
Impugned. I wish to turn to good ac
count the criticisms that we have re
ceived, 111 advised as many of them
have been. The friends who give us
advice do not know our difficulties, and
I cannot stop to explain them. But one
thing is sure, prohibition will not stop
drinking In Princeton. It will only in
crease the trade In corkscrews."
The whole room rose at the words and
cheer upon cheer told the president that
the alumni indorsed his position.
