It Looks Like War With Spain At Present. ENROLLING MORE ARTILLERYMEN Spain Says She Will Search Ameri can Vessels Americans Say She Wont-There the Trouble Lies By Wire to The Telegram. Washington, Nov. 6. Affairs be tween the United States and Spain are shaping themselves or the Spanish government is forcing them to a point where it seems likely that this country will be compelled to announce its exact attitude toward Spain and the patriots who are struggling for liberty in Cuba. In Premier Sagasta's answer to the offer of thisgoverument,made through Minister Woodford , of our kindly offices to aid in bringing about a settlement of the war.in Cuba, Spain says in ef fect that she is much obliged but she is will attend to her own affairs in her own way. Tne note from Spain ac cuses us of aiding and abetting- the Cuban cause. Then follows a procla mation of the right to search American Vessels for contraband of war. The administration has already indicated that under no circumstances, will it permit American vessels to be search ed. The President will refer the mat ter to Congress where there will be no dawdling and no mincing words. Meantime both countries are prepar ing ior action, lienerai Alger nas al ready begun preparations for the en listment of a hundred artillerymen for the coast defense service. DIVINE SERVICES.

Editor Telegram: Much surprise was- manifested among the football team and students of Guilford College by the article in the Telegram of last evening concerning the game with Greensboro recently and also a pros pective game with the Y. M. C. A. team of Winston. , First as to those "unusual conces sions," they claim to have given up in the game, I will say there was none. The only point of contention in the game was in regard to the ball to be used. The Greensboro team wanted to play with an old ball which was stretched entirely out of shape. Mr. Sapp the Greensboro umpire rendered a decision that the Guilford ball was official and it was fair to all that the game be played with it. The Greens boro team admitted the fairness of the decision. In regard to a Winston game I will say that they wrote us for a game but our faculty did not grant us permission to play them. Challenges from Wilmington, Char lotte and Winston have been declined since our Greensboro game on account of a regulation of the faculty. The Guilford team is in much better con dition now than at the Greensboro game and were it possible to meet again we could make a much larger score against Greensboro. Our team in the recent game was materially weakened by our havnjgfto. play four substitutes. This accounts for the small 6core against them. We want it understood, that we are not afraid of the Greensboro team and were it' possible for us to play we would willingly do so. H, C. Petty, Manager w . Guilford College Football Team. '.rrvuiacijr out j. lie uan was uumiai. Nonetheless Greensboro yielded, at the umpire's request,her unquestioned right to furnish the ball. The conten tion was childish at the time and the above shows it childish still. We print it that no injustice may be claimed. We were informed that Guilford was to play Winston by mem bers of the Greensboro team. We are pleased that the information was not correct. There might be differences of opinion as to the cause of the "small score" and differences of opin nion as to the good taste of the "we could make a much larger score" but we pass that by." THE CONVENTION Of Sunday Schools for Guilford County Today. There was a small attendance at the Guilford county Sunday school con vention at West Market street church, this city today. It seems that for some years the county Sunday school convention has been, allowed to go down and this was an effort to revive the movement. A great many of the Sunday schools were not represented. The President, J. R. Mendenhall, made a short talk at the opening, and called for the election of a secretary, whereupon Rev. J. F. McCulloch was unanimously chosen. It was an interesting, if not a large ly attended convention. The discus sions were pithy and pointed and cal culated to aid and assist those who are engaged in and interested in Sun day school work. We hope that much good has been accomplished and as President Mendenhall said in his open ing talk, that those -who are at work may be enabled to do better work. Following the morning session came a good dinner which had been pre pared and served to the delegates and friends of Sunday school work at Bo gart's hall. The reporter was just too late on the scene to get dinner, but that it was of excellent quality and of abundant quantity was evidenced by the fragments left of which there was more than twelve basketsful. The afternoon session was opened by a song and praise service. J . R Mendenhall was re-elected president and Rev. J. F. McCullock was elected secretary and treasurer for the en suing year. An executive committee was also elected in whose hands the matter of selecting a place for the next annual meeting was left, it being de m'rip.d hv the convention to hold the meeting in Greensboro. As in the forenoon session the dis missions were entertaining: and in structive. The Suit Compromised. The case of Hanna Shaw vs. the Southern railway, which was noted sntrifttime since, as beiner transferred under a new ruling from the Federa to the State court has been compro mised. . ; Attornev D. Schenck, Jr., reached an agreement with the general counsel of the road by which several thousand dollars will be paid his client as basis for the settlement. -OHIO CONTEST IS ENDED The Complexion of the Assembly is Now Definitely Known, HAVEMEYER RESTING QUIETLY Could Not Quite Have Appendicitis After All Richard Croker Is Also Nearly Recovered. By Wire to Thk Tklhgham Columbus, O., Nov. 6. The contest or the control of the legislature is considered as ended today. The of ficial counting in some counties will continue next week. There has been such close watching that no material changes are expected. The indications are that the Senate will be made up of nineteen democrats and seventeen republicans; the House of fifty-one democrats and fifty-eight re publicans, giving a republican major ity of live on a joint ballot. There may be several contested seats; they cannot, be considered until the Legis- ature meets on the first Monday in January. HAVEMEYER IS BETTER. Greenwich, Conn., Nov. 6. Have- meyer passed a good night and is on tne road to recovery. Only Jne physician is in attendance and the danger from blood poisoning is passed. The patient is still very weak and is confined to bed but takes nourishing bod in small quantities. RICHARD CROKER AROSE. New York, Nov. 6. Richard Croker has almost recovered from his indis position. He arose early this morn ing and will leave for the South, where he will take a vacation, accompanied by William Astor Chanler and A. Bird Gardiner. Their destination is being kept secret that the holiday may not be marred by importunate office seekers. HENRY WATTERSON IN ATLANTA Will be at the State Normal on Next Saturday Night. Last night in the presence of one of the largest gatherings ever assembled in the hall of the Y. M. C. A., Hon. Henry Watterson, of Kentucky, deliv ered his famous lecture on Abraham Lincoln. It was a master piece of elo quence and frequently during the de- ivery of the lecture the feelings of the audience mounted to the highest pitch of enthusiasm. As the graceful figure of the eloquent son of Kentucky appeared in full stature be fore the audience was greeted with loud and prolonged applause. In the audience were many of . Atlanta's foremost citizens. All professions were represented and the audience in the audience itself, representing every phase of political thought,was a splen did ovation to the speaker. Atlanta Ga. ) Constitution, October 30, 1895. adv Centenary Epworth League. The Centenary Epworth League held its monthly literary and social gath ering at the residence of Mr. J. W. McNairy on Arlington street last night. The subject for the evening was Oliver Wendell Holmes. An in teresting program was rendered by Misses AJm'a Winningham, Ruby Glascock, Gertrude Smith and Messrs. W. I. Underwood andT.A. Glascock. Miss Marietta Stockard gave a comic recitation by special request, which created much amusement. The rest of the evening was spent in pleasant so cial conversation. Delightful re freshments were also served and en joyed by all. Miss Carolyn McNairy was the graceful and charming hostess of the occasion. Banquet of D. O. K. K. Those in attendance report the D. O. K. K. banquet at Winston last night as a social, verbal and gastro nomic success of magnitude. The ini tiation of candidates lasted fram 7:30 to 11 o'clock. The banquet began at 12 and lasted to 3 and while it was a "dry" banquet from a temperance point of view, those present did not suffer by reason of it. There was a fine menu and speeches witty and elo quent. D. Schenck, Jr., was among the speakers. New Bracelets, Whistles and Clubs. Through the generosity and fore- Nthoueht of Chief of Police R. M. Rees, the entire Greensboro police force are nowvequipped with new handcuffs, new I . fin whistles and new Dimes. i.ne Drace- lets are of the latest and best model and very strong, and the whistles and billies are a big improvement over the old ones. The officers are proud o their new equipment. POINTS FROM HIQH POINT. Personal and Local Affairs Briefly ilentloned. Telegram Bureau. ) High Point. N.C.. Nov. 6, '97. Mrs.W.G. Brown for a viist to Lex ington today. N. H. Slaughter has fitted up his reading room at the Jarrell Hotel very neatly indeed. Uncle Nick knows how to please the boys of the road. Sen Overman, of Washington, is in city today. Stewart Cramer, of the Charlotte machine works, is in High Point. J. S. Ferree, of the revenue service, boarded the train here today carrying a Virginia moonshiner to jail. Will Westmorland is the man's name. It was last spring that he shot an officer who attempted to seize his still. There were three of the officers and they were all put to flight. The officers have been after him ever since. He was captured by Mr. Ferree, of Ashe bo ro. Monday Night. "The Burglar," a four-act comedy drama, by Augusta Thomas, will be the attraction at the Academy of Music Monday night November 8th. The impression created by the title of the play is somewhat misleading to the unknowing. s The comedy is truly of that 'style of dramatic composition better known as the society drama, and is lightened with touches of ' Riire comedy, which are always acceptable. The happiness of a home is marred by the fact that the husband and father turns out to be a burglar, escapes ar rest by compromise, and goes away. He is captured, and in escaping is sup posed to be shot, and is reported dead. The wife marries again. The burglar visits the home of his wife, not know ing it is such, and is discovered by his own little daughter, whereupon ensues one of the most original scenes ever seen on the stage. adv Another Straw. We are informed by a" man who knows that the freight business has increased so at the Southern, that whereas the old freight 'shed was-sufficient for both the transfer and Greens boro freight, that now the new freight shed, which is used for Greensboro freight only , is pushed to its full ca pacity, and the old shed, now used only as transfer work, is very much the same as 60 cars are transferred every twenty-four hours. This means hustle from the jump. THE MARKETS. Closing Quotations by Private Wire to W. A. Porterfleld & Co. W. A.
