It is apparent from tills that the answer tOUld not have been st nt from (Madrid on Monday as was stated in some foreign re ports. Tiie misapprehension doubtless arises from the fact that the Madrid cabinet af ter receiving tiie \merican terms desired more informalion upon some of tihe points Involve.! and this led to the cable com munication to M (’ambon It was not in- | limb .1 as a response to the American j trims ami was in no sense conclusive upon the subject matter of the negotiations. There was no need even of i call by (’ambon on the White House or state de partment. This continues to .be the situation up to the present time namely. A communica tion lias (been received relative to the I .Ameiiean terms but not one of such a i final character as to constitute an answer 1 for submission to the United States gov- ; eminent. At the same time t final answer is expected daily and almost hourly, and although no official Intimation lias been given it is possible a decision has already Leu reach, d at M idrid On the assumption that peace is near at hand some Attention is being given to the steps by which this may be brought about ; formally and the measures necessary to I Ve adopted imnudiately after the war It is said to be not at all improbable I that the preliminaries leading up to the • signature of the treaty' of peace may consume fully three months so it may be ■ well along towards the legal date of the I asst tt ’bly of congress .before the president I <v4H he prepared to submit the peace treaty • jo the senate. The Spanish pledge to accept the broad .conditions laid down by the United States will take the form of a written agreement | something in the nature of a protocol. Under the terms of the president s note if they be accepted by Spain the Spanish government is bound to evacuate Cuba and Porto Rieo immediately. This action will not wait upon the work of the peace commissioners, but is to pre cede it and follow immediately upon the signature of the memorandum accepting the president's condition. The word "immediately” in this ease is perhaps a little deceptive. The experi ence of the war department in the en deavor to remove to Spain the Spanish troops surrendered at Santiago has not justified the expectation that a large force Os Spanish regulars can be gathered up and shipped home to Spain in less than about sixty days at the best. Therefore, what is meant by the word "immediately” is that the Spanish government shall at least begin arrangements at once for the evacuation of the islands On the whole it is rather a fortunate circumstance that this evacuation cannot take place en m.issee and immediately it is determined that when the Spanish troops are to be withdrawn they must be replaced by United States troops. This is deemed to be absolutely necessary to guard against anarchy and secure the establishment of a stable form of government in Cuba, but in ali probability not many of them will have to go there before the present rainy season is near an end.

Surgical Operation Performed by the Doc tors at Watkinsville. Watkinsville. C.a . August 3 —A very successful surgical operation was perform ed here yesterday evening while the pa tient was in a hypnotic sleep. County | Solicitor R. 'M. Higgins has been troubled with a tumor in his side for some time I and its rapid growth made him decide to have it removed. He objected to ether or i chloroform being administered and ex ; pressed a desire to be hypnotized while I the surgeon performed the operation. I Dr. S. S. Smith called in Mr. Claud An derson, of the Oconee Enterprise, a hyp notist of local reputation. In a short time Colonel Higgins was put -in a hypnotic sleep and was made entirely insensible to the work of ’he surgeon's knife. When was awakened he expressed no surprise at tin ling the tumor gone and his side sewed up and dressed. Colonel Higgins says he was conscious of several men being around him and the tumor being removed, but was entirely insensible to pain and felt no ill effects from it afterwards. Dr. Smith says the operation was not only satisfactory, but that be had less trouble than any operation he had ever performed. He says he was convinced that where hypnotism could be used it was much preferable to an anaesthetic. cyclonOTspain. A Village Wrecked and a Large Number of People Have Perished. Valencia.

PORTO RICANS CHEER 00R MEN I Arrival of the Reinforcements is Greeted With Great Enthusiasm. HOOPS ARE RESTLESS On Account of the False Alarms— Not Believed that the Spanish Will Act on Offensive. Ponce, via St. Thomas, August 3. —The Porto Ricans of Ponce, lined the streets by the hundreds and filled the air with cheer ing on the arrival of General Garretson’s brigade from Yauco. The arrival of these troops and those of the St. Louis, makes the fighting strength of the Americans operating near Ponce 9,000 men, equal to the entire force of the Spanish regular troops on the island. Garretson camped temporarily near the Second and Third Wisconsin regiments on the outskirts of the town. The brigade marched seventeen miles from Yauco to Ausby. Almost the entire population saw the troops march through the *citj- and gave them cheer after cheer, particularly as the artillerymen lumbered by. Officers at the front do not believe that the Spaniards will make an advance. They claim that they only will act on the defen sive. There was some firing last night be tween Captain Austin’s pickets and the Spaniards in ths brush, but no damage was done. The American troops are restless, due to false alarms of the approach of Spaniards, and they are anxious tor an encountev •with the enemy. The general belief is that there will be no forward movement of the main body of the troops until other transports arrive. The troops on board the St. Louis are reported to be in good health. She brought twelve representatives of the Porto Rican junta of New York, whose business is to influence the people of the island not to resist the American advance. Their good offices will be necesasry. The Dixie’s shot at Morro Castle on Sat urday caused the utmost consternation at San Juan, where it was believed to have signified that the place would be bombar ded within twenty-four hours.

The Fair Store will move and for the next thirty days will offer bargains ex traordinary to the public. Now the Fair Store is a bargain store I all nhe time. Smith, the Fair Store man, is a sort of fairy god-father, the friend of the economical housewife and the man I who always has what you want —anything | you want from a spool of thread to a set I of china, from a pair of socks to a silk hat —and has it at a price that would open the eyes of a professional “shopper.” Then when the Fair Store offers bar- > gains it means somnhiug. It means thj the stock of goods now on hand will be I moved not by the’ proprietor to his new j store on Cherry street next to Payne & i Willingham s, but by the public. Smith, of the Fair Store, offers every- ' thing in the store ar a full 30 per cent dis count. which means that you can buy a . dollars worth for 80 cents and 20 cents j worth for 16 cents. When it is remembered that the original I prices at the Fair Store were something j | like 33 and a third per cent less than the , prices elsewhere, the proposition now made j is startling and will be very pleasing to ■ the housewives of Macon. For the next thirty days this great bar gain moving sale at the Fair Store will be conducted and after that time the Fair will move lock, stock and barrel into its new and handsome building where Mr. i Smith, the Fair Store man will continue his benificeut work ju behalf of household j economics. MARTIN SHOOTING Prohibited by Law and Those Who Kill the Birds Are in Danger.

STARVE TO DEATH BY JUNDREDS Frightful Condition of Poorer Classes in the City of Havana. REFUGEES REACH NEW YORK, Ten to Twelve People Are Found Dead on Streets Every Day and Hundreds Die in Houses. New York, August 3.—Accounts of the condition of affairs in Havana, Matanzas and Cardenas were given yesterday by the passenger steamer Fridtjof Nansen, from Sagua. She brought twenty-nine refugees, most of whom were Spaniards, who made ali sorts of sacrifices to escape from the is land in anticipation of its becoming con trolled by the insurgents. Many of them are well supplied with funds, having turn ed all of their available property into cash. They paid S2OO each for a passage. One woman who had reached Sagua by rail from Havana, said the condition of affairs in the capital was deplorable and daily growing worse. "There is plenty of money," she said, "but what use is it when it will hardly purchase anything. It is impossible to get beef at any price, even horse flesh costs a dollar a pound. Bread costs 25 cents per pound and is very bad at that. The supply of condensed milk is practically ex hausted, and the little left is sold for $2 a can, such as you buy here for 10 cents. “On an average ten or twelve persons are found dead of starvation on the streets every day, and this takes no account of the scores who daily die of hunger in the houses. ‘‘No words can describe the horrors of Los Fossos, a place at the foot of the Pra do, where the wretched reconcentradpes are herded together. I was told that there were no less than 40,000 of these miserable people in the place.

Worse than this the officials beat and bruise them Shamefully. ‘‘Almost all the stores in Weyler and Oreilly streets are closed, as are all of the principal hotels.

Philadelphia, August 3. —The excessive heat of the last three weeks culminated to- I day n one of the most terrific electrical I storms that ever visited the city. The rain fall was the heaviest in the • history of the local weather bureau. In one I hour and three quarters five and four I tenths inches of rain fell. There was al- I most a continuous flash of lightning and many flag poles and buildings in nearly every section of the city were struck, caus ing several small fires and doing great I damage. The telegraphic and telephone service I throughout the city was practically at a standstill for several hours. The cellars ' ! and first floors of several business houses and dwellings were flooded. In the basements of the city hail and the postoffice water rose to such a depth that the fires under the buildings were ex tinguished. It is said that a big fire is raging at Point Breeze Oil Works, in the extreme lower section of the city, caused by light- I ning. Three alarms have been sent in.

SICK Al CAMP THOMAS Will Be Given the Attention of the Ladies Here of the Local Organ ization—Meet Again Friday. The call meeting of the Soldiers' Relief Association, which was held yesterday af ternoon in the parlors of the Public Li brary, was the most successful meeting held this year and was also the most large ly attended. The meeting was presided over by Mrs. W. D. Lamar. The object for which the meeting had been called was a petition from the Army and Navy League requesting aid to help supply the sick soldiers at Fort McPher son and Camp Thomas, with the necessary articles which are not supplied by the gov ernment. The request of the League was confirmed by Mrs. Park, who stated the exact condi tion of things at Camp Thomas and Fort McPherson. The question then arose as to whether the association should appropriate to the fund of the Army and Navy League. A report of the treasurer was called for and it was found that sllO in cash was on hand and that the association owed no debts. It was then decided to aitpropriate $25 to the Army and Navy League, besides the donation of $5 by Mrs. R. E. Park and $5 by the College Hill Circle of King's Daughters. The $35 will be used in purchasing shirts, bedding and towels for the sick soldiers at Camp Thomas and Fort McPherson, and Mrs. Ross Whjte, Mrs, J. F. Hansen and Mrs. Iverson Harris were appointed as a purchasing committee. The articles are to be made as the ban dages were, that is anyone who wishes to sew for the soldiers, can do so by calling at the residence of Mrs. J. F. Hanson for the material. The work to be done is only plain sewing. AH the ladies who secure material must turn in their work to Mrs. Hanson by next Tuesday, as it is necessary to get the articles to camp as early as possible. Mrs. C. B. 'Willingham and Mrs. T. C. Parker have organized an Auxiliary Relief Association at Indian Spring and are doing good work. They sent in $24.50 yesterday to the association, which was derived from a cake walk gotten up at the Springs among the waiters at the Wigwam. All members of the association who are in arrears for dues are requested to bring in the money at the regular meeting, which is to be held Friday. Every member of the association is urged to be present at the meeting Friday, as important business is to be transacted. The meeting will be held in the Library parlors Friday afternoon at 5:30 p. m. telephonTlines MAY JOIN HANDS. The Savannah and Macon Long Distance .Line Has a Proposition. There is a prospect of the Tyson Tele phone Company entering into a contract with the Bell Telephone Company by which the two companies will operate in a mutual way, says the Savannah llorntng News. It is said that President Tyson has signi fied his intention pf accepting any reasqp gble terms that may be proposed by the Bell people, On being advised of such terms as it appeared would be mutually ac ceptable, Manager Polk informed the home office of the Bell company, shortly after which he was informed that a contract would be drawn covering the terms under • which the Savannah exchange would allow the Tyson company to use its wires. What the conditions of this contract will be are yet unknown, but it is thought they will be liberal enough to justify the Tyson company in agreeing to them. The advantages as a result of the joint opera tion, however, will be no more than what is gained by the other company. The prop osition is to throw the wires of the 'wo companies together, not only for the con venience of the Tyson line's patrons, who can then talk direct to any part of the city, without having the message written, but fpr the Bell’s patrons as well, who can reach persons along the Tyson line wi'nout making a trip to the exchange. Such a deal will enable the Macon merchants to get in closer touch with their country pa trons along the line of the long distance telephone, and will, in ali probability, prove a general convenience in bringing increased profits to both companies. The belief is that the Bell company wil} expect a rate paid it according to the time I the conection continues with the Tyson I line. It is stated that it would not b« j practicable for it to charge by the number ■ of times the lines were used, as |he time would vary too much. One patcon would possibly talk five minutes, whereas anoth er would engage the wires a much longer time. The very low' rate the Tyson com , pany has offered, however, will not admit of a heavy tariff for the purpose alone of connecting with the local exchange. Any thing in the bounds of reason will meet the approval of President Tyson, however, who is eager to give the patrons of the long distance line the best and most efficient service by providing every possible means of transmitting messages quickly and re liably. , TAYLOR IS GAY. I The Wife Murderer Seeffis to Have Recover ed His Spirits. Abrer Taylor, the wife murderer, ha< ; completely recovered from his self-inflicte<l wounds and sec-ms to be very gay at pres- i ent. At first he was despondent, but it seems . to have worn off, as he laughs and jokes ' with the other prisoners. He was somewhat worried when told of . the death of Mrs. Logue, His brother camt in to see him yester- ■ ; day and they discussed the matter of em- ■ ploying lawyers to defend him. It is not , known yet who will be employed. Taylor says that he has a good line of defense and thinks that he will not hang. Jailer Stephan says that he is a model I prisoner and gives no trouble. He will . be tried at the October term of court. FAVOR THE FAIR I Carnival Association Hoids Out Hand of Good Fellow ship to the Society. JPPOIHTED 1 COMMITTEE To Attend the Meeting of Agricul tural Society at Indian Springs and Extend Courtesies. Either the city council will release the State Agricultural Society from its present contract to hold a fair in Macon or a fair will be held this fall. The Society has asked council to release it from the contract, but it is doubtful if this will be done. This is Macon’s year for the holding of a fair by the society and so far nothing has been done by the society to come up to the contract. The ’:>•-•;< x will be discussed at the meeting er tne society to be hold at Indian Spring next week, and it is not probable that any action will be taken by council until after the society has itself decided what course it is going to- take. President Brown says that it is not too late now to make arrangements for the holding of a fair, and It is quite probable that it will held, in which case it should be held here At the meeting of the executive commit tee of the Carnival Association the matter was discussed and it was decided that the association should hold out the hand of good fellowship to the society and'endorse the holding of the fair here. If the society decides to come to Macon during the hold ing of the carnival all the better, but the two must run, the committee thinks, under entirely different management, and the carnival people, while they will assist to the best of their ability in drawing crowds for the society’s fair, will make no guar antee in 'the way of a cash subscription. The general sentiment is that the socie ty should make an effort to revivify itself by the work and liberality of its own mem bership throughout the state and that it should come to Macon, if it comes this fall, prepared to bear its own expenses and to accept the work of the Carnival Asoclition in bringing crowds in lieu of any subscrip tion in cash from the city, which gives ‘the grounds and the buildings to the socletv Under the propostion outlined It would be possible for the society to hold a fair strictly confined to agricultural* exhi bitions and to reduce the premium list to a lower basis. This would lend an addi tional interest to the farmers of the state in coming to Macon at this time and the fact that the Carnival Association is of fering such tremendous attractions on the outside would assure the financial success of the undertaking so far as the society is concerned. In taking the action they did and in ap pointing a committee to meet the Agricult ural Society at its semi-annual meeting next week and offer them the welcome to the city in behalf of the association, it. is not to be understood that the two things are to be merged, but simply that the aszo ciation wishes to see the Agricultural So ciety come to ’its old home in Macon once again and wishes to sec the agricultural fairs started again. CITY COUNCIL, Work of the Aidermen at the Regu'ar Meet ing Last Night. Council met last night, with AMermen Pearson, Winship and Moore absent. The 'first communication vhicn was ta ken up was from the Union Basket and Carrier Manufacturing Company, of Flor- \ ence, S. C. In the communication it was askci of cou-.cil to give the company tbo main I.:-tiding at the Central City Park. In the communication It was stated that the company would need 30,000 feet of floor space, it was also stated that other local ities were being sought and that the coun cil should report at ouoe as proposals from otter cities had to be taken into consid eration. The communication was referred to tbe mayor and the public property com mittee. Mayor Price reported to the council that Mr. Pope Brown, president of the Agricult ural Society had made a personal call upon him and had asked about the advisability of holding a fair here this year. Mayor Price said that he told him about the car nival which will be held here in October, and also told him that he did not think it advisable to hoid it this year. Mr Brown told the mayor that he would bring the matter before the society. The matter was referred to the committee on finance and public property. The mayor stated that Professor Pollock of Mercer University had informed him that the ity was entitled to three schol arships and he appointed Davenport Guerry, Sidney W. Hatcher and S. H. Hertwig to fl! the scholarships. The appointments were all confirmed. Aiderman Williams reported to council that the market was in bad condition an£ very much in need of repair. He sail that the roof needed repairing ap% that he thought it best to build a hew roof entire ly. The matter v,ai referred to the com mittee on markets, which was instructed to report at the next meeting as to the needs of the market and the cost. Sexton Roland B. Hall was given a ten days leave of absence. During the time he is away his duties will be performed by his son, A resolution was introduced by Aiderman Huthnance to have a statement as to the money which has been paid out for paving and to know if there is enough money left to continue the work. He wanted to know how long the streets were to be torn up. as he said some of the merchants were getting worried about the streets in front of their business houses. The resolution was referred to the finance committee. City Treasurer Tinsley acted as clerk in the absence of Clerk Bridges Smith. TIMLS_ UP. Limit of Opportunity for Hard Wood Factory Expires Today. Today the limit expires for the opportu nity for Macon to secure the big hardwood i factory, which has been under considera i tion for so long a time. The matter was brought before council ' last night and the request for a lease of I the main building at the park was referred to the committee on finance and public , property, the mayor and city attorney. These committees will have to act today or the factory will be lost It is not probable, however, that any thing will be done before the committee report? ta council next Tuesday night, but of course, if they are giv.n assurances as , to a favorable report from the conference > the proposition will be held up.
