Komjwayo April 20. As a measure
of tlofcnso ngainst tho expected attack
iiHon tlio town dynamite mines have
boon laid in the outskirts of the town
and in the pround over which an at-
tacking party would nooossnrily ap-
proach. Thcso mines havo boon wired
and connected with instruments in
the contra! laager which will be the
point of retreat in caso of attack.
From tlio central laaper the ground in
which tlio mines have boon laid is in
full view and the mines can be ex-
ploded by electricity at the moment
required. An explosion at the moment
nn advancing horde of natives is over
the mines would do tremendous
execution among them.
So far as the situation is improved
here ovor that of yesterday it is due
to the departure of the enemy who
havo been massed to the north of
tho town for several days and from
which an attack has been almost
hourly expected.
This movement however brings
little comfort to those in Uuluwayo.
Tlio excited manner in which tho na-
tives (jultted their positions indicated
a conlidont purpose of mischief.

Lo.vnoN April 20. Tho oillcers of
the Chartorod South African company
hero are persistently representing that
tho situation in lluluwayo is not as
serious as represented in uon-oillcial
dispatches and that the town is not In
any real danger. The Chartered com-
pany today announced that they learn
that the olllclals of Huluwayo are con-
iidont that thoycan hold tho town and
that tho town of Salisbury is also
safe and is organizing its defensive
fcrces. The tone of non-oflieinl dis-
patchos from South Africa rcllocts a
contrary tone and continues to repre-
sent tlio situation at lliiluwuyo as
alarming and tlio condition of atl'airs
throughout Matabolo as growing more
and more threatening.

SPAIN APPROACHED.
Archbishop Irohtml on tho Cuthollc
Church In Till Country.
Vaiiinoto:t Aprtl 10. With im-
posing ritos the Hight Ilev. Tliomat
O'tSbrmnn wns yoatonlny consecrated
as bishop of Sioux Falls S. IV the
ceremony taking place at St Patrick's
church which was crowded through-
out tho four hours which th" exercises
consumed. Cardinal Salolli oHieiated
ns couseerator and 150 priests occu-
pied tho chancel and chapel and
joined in tlio responses incident to the
services while huudrods of other per-
sons proiuiuontly connected witli the
Catholic institutions were present
also.
Archbishop Ireland of SU Vaul who
will bo the metropolitan of tho new
bishop dollvored an address in tlio
course of which he said: "The liber-
ties the democracy the spirit of
progress which nro tho glories of
America aro tho outcome of the deop-
est priueiplos of the teachings of tho
Catholic church. Liberty and progress
came into the world with her and
prospered always under her breath-
ings. Tlio most positive precepts of
the Catholic church go to the build-
ing of America. She proscribes loy-
alty to tlio State puritv of personal
life charity to fellow men. The
church recogni7.es as her own sphere
faith and morals; she possesses and
claims no mission in civil and political
matters.
"If tho church oncroachos on tho
sphere of tho State wo should bid her
be away. If the Slpi.; antes into the-
sanctuary of conscience tho proper
empire of the church the appeal is to
God and tho State is ordered to hold
oil" its hands Separation of ehurth
and State as we have it in America
church and State revolving freely in
their separate and distinct spheres
Catholics fall behind none of thoir
fellow citizens in admiring it and
demanding its continuance. The
Catholic church wishes no aid from
the State in tho preaching of the gos-
pel. Ill t liberty from tlio State she
wislios and clamors for as a sacred
and inalienable right liberty in its
fullest gifts under the common law of
tlio land. I am a Catholic; 1 am a
priest ami a bishop but 1 am an Amer-
ican citizen and I must he debarred
from no rights and privileges accorded
to other citizens because 1 am a Cath-
olic. "My words betray no foar for tlio
future. Americans are a people of
sincoro religious coifvietions and of
profound common sense and tlity
know how to keep church and State
soparate and yet give liberty its full
sway and guard religion nnd morals."

Thoy Chooio Delegates to Two Stnlo
(JnltvAittlitiif gilvnr Mf-M T1U.
Omaha Xeb. April 20. The Hum-
ocrats of Nebraska held their county
conventions to select delegates to the
State convention Saturday. Tlio two
wings of the party continue to remain
quite distinct Those counties in
which the silver wing controlled the
regular convention sent delegates to
the State convention to meet in Lin-
coln April 32. Where tho so-called
administration forces were in the ma-
jority the delegates wore accredited
to tho convention of April 21). The
silver interests probably secured tho
largest number of regular delegatus.
In each instance the wing defeated in
regular county convention will secure
delegates favorable to their cause in a
mass convention.

Comnitinli'iitlons tin to tlio Cuban Situa-
tion lluvo Hhoii Passed.
London April 20. Tlio Standard's
correspondent at Madrid bays: "Do-
spite tlio persistent otileial donials
both from Washington and Madrid it
Is now an open bcorct that botii gov-
ernments have freely discussed tlioir
attitude toward each other in the
Cuban affair. Spain is aware that
President Cleveland wishes to be con-
ciliatory but that he can not answer
for tho control ot American opinion
if tho struggle in Cuba bo prolonged
to the injury of American commerce.
Spain on tlio other hand has in-
formed President Cleveland that she
is willing to conciliate the sympathies
of sensible Americans but that she
cannot entertain a proposal for tho
independence of Cuba or even for a
suspension of hostilities to negotiate
with tho rebels as public opinion
would never tolerate such a humilia-
tion. Spain has been silently prepar-
ing to execute a Cuban home rulo bill
directly tho colonial authorities re-
garded it advisable ro do so. No date
has yot been fixed for this however."

Washington April 20. Tho follow-

oral Orosrenor last night ns to tho
progress of tho MciCinley campaign:
'Following is tho present condition
of the MoKlnley vote including as
usual tho full vole offfOhio nnd In-
diana: Alabama 12; Arkansas 10;
Florida S; Georgia 19; Illinois 10; In-
diana 30; Kansas 20; Kentucky 11;
Louisiana 8; Maryland i; Minnesota

ico 1; New York 1; Ohio. !'; Okla-
homa I: Oregon S; Pennsylvania 2;

Texas 111; Virginia 0; West Virginia
2- Wisconsin 31; Utah 1; Tennosseo
10; North Carolina 2; North Dakota
0; total 375.
"The most significant feature of tho
last week's elections is the great num-
ber of second choice instructions for
McKinlcy. In this category may bo
classed New Hampshire Kentucky
Pennsylvania and Now Yorlt and it is
safe to say there are now of well do-
fined second choice delegates thor-
oughly committed to McKinley as
such not less than 12". During tho
remainder of April there will be elec-
tions in Connecticut Maryland Vir-
ginia Pennsylvania Indian Territory
Alabama Georgia Illinois. Vermont
and Arizona - in all SI votos. Out of
this number it is a very conservative
estimate to claim for McKinlcy fifty
delegates. Then will follow in tlio
month of May conventions in the fol-
lowing slates: California Indiana
Michigan Nevada. West Virginia
Montana Missouri Delaware Colo-
rado Washington Idnho Wyoming
and North Carolina with l.VJ dele
gates unoli'cted. It will bo seen that
the McKinlcy situation lias not only
constantly improved but is rapidly
approaching a triumphant conclt
sfon. '
Sir. Ahlrloh'H Intimate.
Mr. Aldrich manager cf the Reed
campaign gives out the following:
"Tlio developments of the paot weolc
in the Republican presidential contest
have resulted in no matorial chango
in the relative standing of the leading
candidates. A little calculation will
disclose that of the 00 1 delegates
elected to date MciCinley has just
about. I'i1 per cent If lie continues
at this rate to tlio end ho will have 335
votes out of a total of OIS when tho
convention assembles or just about
the number that tho friends of Mr.
Reed and the other candidates have
conceded to him from the active com-
mencement of tho campaign. "
Mr. A Id rich's estimate of the dele-
gates elected to date is as follows:

Nino Gloucester fishermen were lost

the fishing schooner !. V. Campbell
of Gloucester was sunk In a squall.
The seven survivors arrlvod here last

The sinking of tho Campbell was
remarkable in several respects. Tho
fatal squall wns one of the most sud-

surviving senmou. ft was nil ovor in
about a minute. It happened so
qnickly and tlioro was so little warn-

calamity or provide for escape. As it
was it seems remarkable a single life
was savod. Tho escape seemed but a
trick of fato.

blow and all realised their lives wcro
in danger. Sovcn of tho sixteen sail-

wind seized tho craft and seemed to
lift it bodily out of the sea. Than as

Details of the acuidout which occur-

Mr. Gilmoro uuwruppod tho bottle and
thought lie noticed it was cracked.
Holding the bottle up in front of his
face he shook it and to liissurprisu the
bottle fell to pieces his clothes were
in part saturated with the carbon and
in an instant the hcaifrom ihe stove
Ignited tho drug and the unfortunate
man was enveloped in flames His wife
hurriedly threw bed quills about him
but her clothing caught fire also and

His wife was also burned uu'.il a part
of the flesh fell oil' her lower limbs
while the son though not burned
