THE PRICE OF ITALY'S ADHESION.
Gossip of the Cennan Capital and the Empires or
the Eastern Hemisphere.
Bismarck's diplomacy will probably re
sult in the reinstatement of Bussian control
of Bulgaria. The price which Italy will de
mand will be the cession of Trentino. There
is an uneasy feeling, despite the seeming
acquiescence of the great powers in the
semi-treaty, because it is not a treaty that is
ratified. The gossip of Berlin is readable, if
not startling.

Berlix, November 16. The develop
ments of Prince Bismarck's diplomacy
promise to result in permanent accord be
tween Anstria and Russia. The Czar's
YMt to Berlin, Count Kalnoky's visit to
Iriedrichsruhe, Emperor "William's visits
to Monza and Constantinople, and, finally,
the conierence between Emperor "William
and Emperor Francis Joseph, at Inns
bruck, have been successive stages of a con
tinuous policy leading toward a settlement.
The Bismarck schemcrestores Russia's dom
inance in Bulgaria, Russia in return recog
nizing as definite Austria's possession of
Bosnia and Herzgovina. Since this pro
posal was communicated to Premier Crispi.
the latter has intimated to Prince Bismanvc
that the sanction of Italy might depend
upon the cession of Trentino bv Aus'.ria.
"When Count Kalnoky left Friedricbs
ruhe nothing was settled. The Austrian
Minister held that the sacrifice of Trentino
was impossible. He considered the posses
sion of Bosnia as already definitive, as it
could only be abandoned after a crushing
defeat The Innsbruck interview brought
the negotiations
TO A CLIMAX.
Emperor Francis Joseph consented to
leave Prince Ferdinand to his fate. He said
he would not oppose a Russian candidate,
provided he was elected under the condi
tions of the Berlin treaty. He pract ically
accorded the Czar a free hand in Bulgaria,
short of Russian occupation. He d eclmed
to consider the question ot Trentino. Count
Herbert Bismarck went to Potsdam, to-ninht
to learn the details of the interview irom
the Emperor.
The Porte is ready as soon as it, learns that
Austria and Russia have accrpted Prince
Bismarck's mediation to send a. circular let
ter to the signatory powers di,txuncing the
Illegality of the present Gove .-ament of Bul
garia. Signer Crispi, the Italiar, Premier, is ex
pected here next week. T press demand
Trentino as the price of It ily's adhesion.
MUST BAISE THE, CURTAIN.
Prince Bismarck's re-entree into the
Reichstag, it is report a, would be post
poned until he is able t Yaise the curtain or
disclose the situation. The Foreign Office
is entirely sanguine t' Aat the Chancellor will
, soon be m a positio a to describe the success
of his diplomacy, ind pay a tribute to the
wisdom and ener Ey 0f the Kaiser. Count
.Kalnoky submitt d t0 Prince Bismarck with
reluctance.
A singular e rnression of discontent an-
pears in the I 'esther Lloyd, the recognized
organ of both the Vienna foreign office and
the Hungarian ministry.
This jonr nAi calls the pending arrange-
mentane jforced.rotten compromise, which,
irsays,iriay prove worse than an enforced
'vJar , "C article concludes with the hope
that th t German policy will not turn out a
Mach- jivelliac policy, and that issue of the
impe ial meeting at Innsbruck will simply
g'Tit renewed sanction to the status quo.
SOUGHT GOOD ADVICE.
Before going to Innsbruck Emperor Fran
cis Joseph, alter consulting with Count
"Kalnoky, took the advice of the veteran
statesman. Count Andrassy. The Emperor
-went to Andrassy's house and conferred
with him for two hours.
If Kalnoky keeps faith with Bismarck
-the attitude "of the "Vienna Cabinet toward
"Bnlgaria must change. The divergence be
tween the Berlin and Vienna policies has
recently become marked.
The Bulgarian agent at Vienna has been
Eemi-officially recognized.
The Xiander Bank has negotiated the new
Bulgarian loan, and the Austrian Consnl at
Sofia is the confidant and adviser of Prince
Ferdinand.
The German Consul did not even salute
Ferdinand on meeting him in the street and
completely ignores him as the head of the
Government.
The explosion of the Peslher Lloyd prob
ably relieves the Austrian official feeling
-without having significance. Count Her
bat Bismarck's refraining from visiting
- Count Taafe when passing through Vienna
in severely commented on in official circles.
TOUSG BISMARCK IS OSTENTATIOUS.
Nothing justifies Count Herbert's ostenta
tious ignoring of Count Taafe while showing
cordiality to Premier Tizsa at PeMh, and
feasting with high personages at Vienna.
This slight gave origin to a report that
Count Taafe had resigned, In an interview
to-day Count Taafe said:
"Young Bismarck's conduct does not af
fect me. It is rather a trinmph tor me,
showing that my policy is purely national,
seeking to strengthen Austria without ex
ternal aid."
The commission of the Reichstag ap
pointed to consider the anti-Socialist bill
las affirmed the general principle of that
measure to the effect that special legislation
as necessary to repress the Socialists.
Oat of 28 members 17, comprising
;8 Nationalists, 6 Conservatives, and
3 Free Conservatives, support the prin
ciple of the bill, but desire to
modify its provisions, 2 desire to modify it,
.and 2 Progressists reject it. There will be
a long fight before the commission reports.
On the Reichsbank the usual majority
is divided. The Conservatives and
a fraction of the Progressists oppose
the renewal of the privileges of tlTe institu
tion, unless the State more actively inter--venesin
its operations. The Nationalists
and Centerists support the project 3s pre
sented, and it will be passed.
The Progressists, with a view to an elect
oral programme, have tabled a motion for
an inquiry into the railway tariff in order to
effect a reduction of rates.
It is reported thatHerr Von Boetticher,
Minister of the Interior, on his return from
Fredrichsrube brought instrnetions to the
authorities to proceed with the preparation
of the electoral lists, which ought to be pub
lished four weeks previous to the voting.

BoBDEiTTOWir, K. J., November 16.
Mrs. Delia Stewart Parnell, mother of
Charles Stewart Parnell, is in an almost
starving condition at Ironsides, the estate
of the late Commodore Stewart. She is alone
and nearly penniless, living in the old dis
mantled house, and it is said she has
been compelled to sell her dresses and
jewelry to buy food. She has no close ac
quaintances in Bordentown. and is seldom
seen outside her house. Her nearest inti
mate friends are the Carslakes, who live in
Trenton. They are also poor, but were un
aware of Mrs Parnell's condition till the
old lady's pride was broken by privation,
and she wrote to Mrs. Carlslake" urging her
to come to Ironsides -xt once. In Mrs. Par
nell's letter to .Mrs. Carlslake she said:
I hare to go to Philadelphia very soon, as I
suppose I shall be forced to be there often in
all weather by monstrous attacks in tho shape
of law suits in re'nim for bavine loaded their
originators -aitl, benefits. It is the first time
in my life that I have met with such hideous
ingratitude, a id I suspect such an extreme is
rare and only practiced by anomalies of human
nature.
This refers to the suit brought against her
by Mr. Tjdward Stewart. He is a distant
rIativrA and lives on the Ironsides' estate.
Years aK0 he gave 532,000 to use in the in
vestment she was making at that time, but
the. investment turned out badly, and Mr.
S'.ewart's money was lost with
".tlrs. Parnell's. At great personal
sacrifices she repaid 528,000 of the amount,
and he is suing foi tho rest. Mrs. Cars
lake obeyed the summons to Iron
sides, and was amazed and distressed
at the old lady's condition. Iron
sides, the last remnant inherited
from her father, is heavily mortgaged, and
taxes amounting to $323 are unpaid, andit
not settled by December 1 the property will
he sold, leaving her without a roof to shelter
her.
In addition to this, to pay the expense of
the law suit, she has been obliged to sacrifice
everything, and now lives in one room, the
kitcnen, of the former mansion. She
claims to have discovered papers that
would help her son in the case
against him, but cannot take them to him
owing to her poverty. She will not appeal
to him for help nor could she well do so, as
Mr. Parnell is almost as poor as his
mother.
Dr. Mozirt Jenkins, of Trenton, was
called to the residence of Mrs. Parnell to
day for the purpose of treating that lady.
He said he lound her verging on complete
relapse. She is suffering trom congestion of
brain and heart. When be called she was
about to dine on vegetables, without either
bread or coffee.
Mr. TJnger, of Philadelphia, wants to
purchase the mortgage for the relief of Mrs.
Parnell if he could be assured of the pay
ment of 1 per cent interest on his invest
ment. Scanlon, the actor, will arrange a
benefit performance for Mrs. Parnell. In
the meantime he has sent her the money
needed to pay the taxes on Ironsides.
TIRED OF PROHIBITION.
Senator Ingalls' Sent in Dnnger Brennse
He Doesn't FnTor Rescbmlsnlon.
Topeka, November 16. Senator In galls
will not succeed himself in the Senate with
out a hard fight. The Legislature
which will choose his successor will
be elected in a year Irom now
and tbe Republican majority will be by no
means so overwhelming as it has been here
tofore judging from present indications, and
Senator "Ingalls seat in the Senate
may be said to bo in danger.
The thing that complicated the
situation so far as Ingalls is concerned is
the crowing sentiment in favor of resub
mitting the prohibition question to a vote of
the people, with the endin view of repealing
the law. On this question the battle in
Kansas will be fought next year.
Senator Ingalls had already declared
himself on the question. Be said only
to-day:
Resubmission is all nonsense. The people
don't want it. They've got what they want,
prohiDition. If the question were submitted
to a Tote it wonhl carry by more than the
famous 82,000 majonty.
It may seem nonsense to the Senator, but
it is a dead earnest question to many of the
Republicans in the State, and one of the
strongest opponents of Senator Ingalls will
be Judge J. C. Foster, Judge of the United
States Circuit Court, this place. He is a
Republican, and he announces this evening
that he has sent in his resignation to join in
the resubmission crusade and contest Mr.
Ingalls' feat. He is very popular in Kansas',
and being a speaker of unusual eloquence,
he will make a strong canvass.
Senator Ingalls is here now, conferring
with his political friends and mapping out
his campaign.

MraDLErowu, N. Y., November 16.
A contested election case of uncommon in
terest might have been carried into the next
State Assembly for determination in con
nection with the casting of a lot of illegal
Republican ballots in Delaware county,
were it not for tbe abhorrence with which
Democrats regard elections by returning
boards. The respective candidates for the As
sembly in Delaware county.which constitutes
an Assembly district, were Judge Isaac H.
Maynard, late Assistant Secretary of State
under the Democratic administration at
"Washington, and James B..llantine, a Re
publican politician of local note. The
contest was one of the most spirited ever
had in the county, and while the Republi
can candidate for Secretary of State, carried
the county by 1,197 majority over his
Democratic orpment, the majority for
B.illantine over Maynard for Assembly, was
only 37.
While the Republicans of Delaware were
still shaking in their boots'over the narrow
margin by which they had escaped defeat in
the Assembly contest, the surprising dis
covery was made that 105 ballots cast for
James Ballantine in one ot the Sidney dis
tricts were illegal, inasmuch as they
were printed on calendered paper,
with green ink. The act passed in
1880, 'to secure uniform ballots and
preserve the purity of elections," expressly
provides that they must be printed with
black ink, on soft, white paper. The throw
ing out of these illegal b.illots would give
Judse Maynard the certificate of election
by 68 majority, and great was the pcrturba-'
tiou lest the Democrats should insist upon
conformance in the official count with the
strict letter of the law.
But when the Board of County Canvassers
met to ascertain and declare the result of
the election, they were notified by Judge
Maynard, in a dignified and straightforward
communication, that while the ballots in
question were clearly illegal, under no cir
cumstance would he accept a certificate of
election unless it clearly appeared that he
had a plurality ot the votes cast for the
office.
"II that fact does not appear," he adds,
"without the rejection of these ballots, the
certificate of election must be given to some
other candidate than myself, or the office
will become vacant. The Democratic way of
obtaining an elective office is by popular
vote and not by returning board methods."

rSPECIAL TBLEOnAM TO THE DISrATCtt.I
New Yoek, November 10. Late this
afternoon Detective Connor and Officer
Schlattman, of the Eldridge street station,
found 30 battery cells and a complete tele
graph outfit in a three-story room of
115 Chrystie street, and took the complete
outfit to the station house. Tbe woman who
owns the house rented the room on Saturday
to two men, whose names she did not learn.
The rooms were unfurnished, and all the
strangers had with them was a barrel, two
chairs, and a table. They spent a great deal
of time in their room, and the landlady's
suspicions were aroused. She informed the
police, and upon examination it was found
that the men were evidently expert
telegraph operators. They had set
up their batteries, arranged the table with a
grounding pec and sounder, then run the
wires out the window and tapped the West
ern Union wires. "What their object was
nobody seems to know. "When the messages
had been read the switch was turned and the
message was sent on its way.
The police think that the wires were
tapped in order that the men might secure
early news from the races, and so beat the
poolrooms. Some of the batteries were pur
chased from J. H. Bunnell, 108 Liberty
street, and were addressed to Frank Mur
ray. No arrests have been made.

It transpires that Premier Mercier, ofj

in the confiscated Jesuit property, and in

O'Snlliran's Strange Eelnctance to Go and Identify
the Body of Dr. Cronin.
The prosecniion in the Cronin case was
concluded yesterday by the examination of
a witness who had served ten years in
prison in the old country for being a
Fenian. The defense fired their opening
gun in an attempt to break down tbe testi
mony regarding the identification otDinan's
white horse.
IgFECIAT. TZLEOHAM TO TUB DISPATCn.l
Chicago, November 16. The defense
fired its first gun to-day by putting ex-Captain
Schaack and Police Lieutenant Koch
on the stand to impeach Mrs. Conklin's
story about her final identification of Di
nan's famous white horse. The Burgomaster
seemed to feel uncomfortable in the novel
role of witness for the defense, and
he delivered his replies to
Mr. Forrest's questions' in a short,
jerky way that made big Dan Coughlin
grow red with auger. The. Captain admit
ted that he took the white horse from Din-
It was raining and the rain increased
in volume every moment until he returned
tbe horse to the barn. Schaack repeated
sueh portions of his conversation with Mrs.
Conklin as he could remember, but there
was nothing of any significance in them ex
cept that the lady declared that Dinan's
horse was not the one that she saw on the
night of May 4. After he returned to the
station Schaack met Coughlin and told him
he was
A 1TCKY MAN.
"Why?" the big detective asked. "Be
cause," replied Schaack, "Mrs. Conklin did
not identify Dinan's horse."
Forrest wanted to go into the details of a
conversation between Schaack and Dinan
relative to tbe man who drove the horse
away, but as the Captain had forgotten his
notebook, the attorney decided to postpone
further examination until the witness could
produce it in court.
Lieutenant C. G. Koch, of the old Lake
view station, was a tartar for Mr. Forrest.
It was he who drove the horse the night
Mrs. Conklin saw it the second time. He
was sure that the horse's appearance had
been radically changed by its exposure to
I the rain; also tbat Mrs. Conklin had not
been given a fair chance to view it irom her
position in the bay window.
"Didn't you tell me," Forrest asked in
considerable heat, "that the horse's appear
ance had not been changed by the rain?"
"No, sir; I told you the wet made it look
differently," was the prompt answer. Tbat
released the witness from further ques
tioning. A EErORTER ON THE STAND.
The first witness called was James Clancy,
correspondent of the New York Herald, who
testified on behalf of the prosecution. He
said that he was sent here by the Hirald in
Mav to investigate the Cronin case. He
called at O'Sullivan's house on the mornina
j of theday that Cronin's body was discovered,
but before the discovery had been made.
He talked with O'Sulhvau, who ex
pressed a belief that Dr. Crouin wonld turn
up all right, as he (O'Sullivan) didn't be--
lieve he was murdered. He then continued
his testimony asfollows: '
"I called late in the evening of the same
day, after hearing that the body had been
found. I asked O'Sullivan if he had heard
the news; he said 'No.' Then there was a
pause. Then he said: 'There was a report
I heard while I was down town that
a body was discovered in the lake
this morning, but it has been identi
fied.' We were both standing at this time.
I said: 'I heard nothing about that.' I
paused and then said: 'Mr. O'Sullivan, the
body of Dr. Cronin has been found.' He
turned pale and said: 'What! the body of
Dr. Cronin found? Is it true?' I said:
'Of course, I don't know for certain; I
heard it was discovered in the catch-basin
and is lying in tbe police station about a
mile from here. I have a cab at the door;
will you accompany me and identify the
body at the morgue?'
A STRANGE RELUCTANCE.
"He shook, and sank into the cba:r and
said: 'No; I could not go I could not
identify him; it would be useless for me to
go.' I said: 'Mr. O'Sullivan, you told
me this morning you knew Dr. Cronin very
well. It is only a short distance. Come
along and identify the body. It may not be
Dr. Cronin's body; let us make sure.' He
said: 'No; I could not go; if I met bim in
tbe street 1 might know him, but I could
not identify his body.' I said: 'That is
strange.' I urred him again, and he made
no effort to move out of his chair, into which
he had sunk when I first broke the news to
him."
Mr. Clancy's cross-examination was of a
sensational nature. He admitted that he
was in prison in 1868, having been arrested
for complicity in tbe Fenian conspiracy.
He spent ten years in prison. He told this
story of his arrest and confinement:
HE WAS AN INSURRECTIONIST.
"I joined the Irish Republican Brother
hood in England, in 1862 I think it was. I
was rather active in propagating the princi
ples of the Irish Bspnnlican Brotherhood
in London, and subsequently in the army.
In 1866, I received notice from James
Stephens, who was then at the head of the
organization, to leave the army and come
on with what men I could, go to Ireland
and take part in a projected insurrection.
My instructions were to go to London and
wait for further orders. J went to London
and received orders there to wait still
longer. Finally I was informed that the
rising would not take place.
"I again entered into journalism and re
mained there until I was arrested, in 1SC8,
as a Fenian. Two policemen effected my
arrest; and we had a tussel and I shot at
them, and that formed the groundwork of
the accusation against me, and upon that I
was tried and convicted at the Old Bailey
in Xiondon in loos. .was sentenced to
penal servitude for life."
The sentence was alterward reduced to 14
years-and Clancy cot four years off for good
behavior.

HIS NAME WAS SMITH.
A Dying Onllavr Denies Tbat Ho Is Rnbe
Burrows.
IPrECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsrXTCH.l
Birmingham, November 16. A man
who was being pursued on the supposition
that he was Bube Burrows, tbe train robber,
was shot and killed in Marshall county, 80
miles north of here this morning Dr. A.
Scott, a resident of that locality, did the
killing. For several days Dr. Scott has
noticed a suspicious-looking character with
a Winchester rifle loafing in the woods
about his house. He reported the matter to
the Sheriff, who gave him a repeating rifle
and instructed him to capture the man or
kill him if necessary. This morning Scott
located the mysterious outlaw, and with a
party of friends started out to capture him.
When they came in sight of the outlaw and
ordered him to surrender, he opened fire on
the doctor's party. Several shots were ex
changed, and tbe outlaw fell with a bullet
through his neck. He lived but a few mo
ments, but exclaimed as the party gathered
about him: "You think you have killed
Bube Burrows, but you are wrong; my
name is Smith."
No scrap" of paper or other article by
which he could be identified was found on
the body of. the dead, outlaw. Several
months ago there was a horse thief in that
locality whose name was Smith, and he may
be the man killed. The dead outlaw wore
around his body a rudely constructed coat
of mail which a bullet wonld notjpenetrate.
Dr. Scott, who killed the man, and others
in the neighborhood, think the man was
reallv Bube Bnrrows, but they cannot es
tablish his identitv.
SMALL K10T AT THE POINT.
Five Hundred People Interfere and Aid a
Prisoner to Escnpe.
The excitable denizens of the classic region
known as the Point turned out en masse
last night and made things lively for a
while. About 7:30 o'clock Peter Madden, a
well-known young man of that locality, was
having an interesting physical argument at
the corner of Penn avenue and Fort street
with a man whose name could not be
learned, when Officer Pat Farrell hove in
sight and stopped tbe fun by placing Mad
den under arrest. Madden vigorously ob
jected, and four more of Brown's finest
were needed to get him to the patrol
box. When they finally succeeded in
getting the prisoner to the box, and
while Officer Farrell was summoning
tbe wagon, Madden suddenly ripped the
officer who was holding him, and made the
proverbial dash for liberty. There were about
600 persons gathered to watch the arrest,
and when the prisoner started to rnn they
put themselves in the officers' way and re
tarded their movements considerably, all
the while making it pleasant for them by
threatening to tear them apart, juaaaen
ran down an alley toward the Exposition,
and jumped over the embankment and
escaped. Things looked decidedly squally
for a while, but soon quieted down.
A BROTHER'S MAGNANIMITY.
He Gives TJp His Fortune for tbe Sake of
a Forcer.
tBrECIAL TELEOBAU TO THE DISPATCIt.1
Amsterdam, N, Y., November 16.
There are two brothers in this oity, one of
them is a criminal, a forger for immense
sums, and the other is a noble man. One
swindles his best friends, the other
gives up his fortune in an attempt to pre
serve the honor of the family. These two
brothers are Daniel and John Carmichael.
Tbe most important development 'this
week in the great Carmichael for
gery caie was the assignment
on Wednesday of John Carmichael.
His attorneys "said that his personal lia
bilities were not more than $30,000. Other
liabilities, to the extent of $115,000 were as
sumed by him when his brother Daniel, the
forger, transferred to him the Forest paper
mill.
On Monday the men who have the most
intimate knowledge of the affair began to
fear tbat John would be forced to tbe wall.
His assignment was brought about directly
by Daniel Carmichael, who is a forger for
about $200,000, as far as known, about one
half ot which is on his brother.
BURGLARS IN M'EELSPORT.
Tbe Residence of John Jlles Gutted
by
Rnpacloos Robbers.
A very clean piece of burglary was done
in McKeesport late last Friday evening, tbe
scene of operations being the residence of
John Jiles, on Seventh avenue.
The house was broken into, and everything
in it but heavy article!), such as furniture,
was removed. All of the clothing of eyery
member of the family was taken. It was a
clean sweep,-and was made while the family
were at Coultersville, where they were called
at tbe time bthe death of the mother of Mr.
Jiles.
The honse of John Teemer, the oarsman,
located opposite that of Mr. Jlles, and tbat
adjoining it were to be robbed by the gang,
but both attempts made proved unsuccessful.

The Treasury Department Officials to
BaTe a K amber of Cases '
SIMILAR TO THE JEANKETTE ONES.
Hundreds of Canadians Daily Come to Work
in the United States. -
NEW QUESTIONS THAT DAILY ARISE.
Ad Ei-Conjressman Eefusts to Clean Cnspliors In tie
Departments.
The Treasury Department will have a
number of cases similar to those of tbe
Jeannette glass workers to act upon, A
number of bookkeepers, mechanics and
clerks living in Windsor, Canada, and em
ployed in Detroit, are complained of as
working for less wages than United States
citizens and coming daily to their labor. An
ex-Congressman is found who refuses to
clean out cuspidors in the deparments.
FROM A STAFF COBKESFOXPrf T.J
Washington, November 16. It is evi
dent the Treasury Department will not lack
for cases in the same category as those of the
Jeannette glassworkers. Not only from At
lantic ports, but more especially from the
Mexican and Canadian borders, come com
plaints of persons living across the line who
come daily into the United States to work.
A statement was received to-day from Mr.
H. A. Moore, Inspector of Immigration at
Detroit, in which it is shown that upward
of 500 clerks, bookkeepers, mechanics and
common laborers come from Windsor, Can
ada, to Detroit every morning, and return
every evening.
Tbe inspector had the ferry boats under
surveillance for days, and was able to state
the exact number of the various classes of
workmen who came from 'Canada by each
of the boats, between 6 and 8 o'clock A. M.,
to take the places of citizens of tbe United
States. He also discovered tbat the Cana
dians worked for lower wages than citizens
of the United States would do, and spent
their monevin Windsor because there they
couldjpurcbase the products of cheap labor
at a lower price than was possible in Detroit
Some time ago complaint was made tbat
many employes of tbe Grand Trunk Sail
way in Detroit were citizens of Canada.
The law was quoted to the railway authori
ties, and it was soon observed tbat the Can
adian employes began quieplyto change
their residence from Windsor and other
places to Detroit. The Board of Trade of
Windsor thereupon held a meeting and
adopted resolutions protesting against a
policy of tbe United States which prevented
citizens of Canada from working across tbe
border in the United Stales, and which was
reducing the population of Windsor by
compelling these who had employment in
the United States to take up iheir residence
there.
This protest was received yesterday, and
was promptly answered with quotations
from the law and decisions of tbe Treasury
authorities, showing that the law and the
decisions were in harmony, and that citizen
of Canada would not be allowed to come
under agreement to work in the United
States. Almost daily some new question
arises. The decisions and enforcement of
the law are exciting much comment in
foreign countries, and it would not be sur
prising if international disputes arise on
account of them. Ltghtneb.
DREW THE LINE AT SPITTOONS.
An
Bx-Concressman Refuses to Do
tbo
Work of an Assistant Janitor.
fFKOIfA STATT CORRESPONDENT.!
Washington, November 16. Early in
the first year of the Cleveland administra
tion ex-Congressman McKwen, of South
Carolina, applied for a position and secured
a clerkship at a small salary in the Treasury
Department. Soon after the advent of Sec
retary Windom the ex-Congressman was re
duced to the position of laborer in one of
the bureaus. A few days ago a vacancy oc
curred in the position of "messenger" in
another bureau and the ex-Congressman,
preferring to be classed as a messenger
rather than as a laborer, though the salary
was the same, requested to be transferred.
His prayer was granted. When he presented
himself to tbe head of the bnreau he was
told that the principal part of his duty
would be to take care of the water pitchers
and waste jars, and clean the cuspidors.
The ex-Congressman decided that it was
about time tor him to resign, and he did so
forthwith, and will probably stand for the
Congressional nomination in his district
next year.
The next applicant for the messenger's
position in the bureau referred to was no
less than a scion of one of the most ancient
of the first families of the Old Dominion, as
indicated by his name, Beverly Tucker.
Mr. Tucker, though bearing so noble a
name,, was less proud, or even more "hard
up" than the statesman from South Caro
lina, and, as soon 33 he was promised the
appointment, went at the spittoons as thoagh
he had been used to it all his life. Mr.
Beverly Tucker is of African descent, and
is quite as affable and obliging as his great
namesake.
THE BEST IN THE WORLD.
Forelcn Dclecntes Dellchted With the Work
of Onr Nnvnl Academy.
Washington, November 16. The dele
gates to the International American Con
gress and to the International Marine Con
ierence visited the United States Naval
Academy at Annapolis to-day. Secretaries
Blaine and Tracy were of the party. The
delegates fromEurone especially were much
pleased with what was shown them, and they
unite in an expression of the opinion that
the academy was superior to the naval acad
emy of any other nation.
All of them were deeply interested in the
methods of instruction-as shown in tbe navi
gation bnildinc, where, by large models of
vessels, the cadets are made familiar with
handling sails and ropes, and tbe mysteries
of the movements and effects of winds in the
draughting room, the pattern shops, the en
gine room and machinesbop, and the elec
trical laboratory in all of which are evi
dences of the boys' handicraft. The party
took their departure at 3 f. 21. The day was
perfect, and the occasion thoroughly en
joyed by everyone.

Residents ot lbs Island Send a Protest to
Secretary Blaine Against tbe Actions
- of tbe Spanish Consal There
Why Tber are Com
plaining;. MSrZCTAI. TSX.XGKA3I TO TUX DISPATCH.1
Key West, Ela., November 16.The
report of the committee appointed to inves
tigate the alleged interferences of the Span
ish Consul with the Cubans domiciled here,
has lieen mailed to "Verner Fleming for
official transmission to Secretary Blaine,
and was made public by the Board of Trade
to-day. It is as follows:
Your committee, throughout its InyesUga
tlons, has been amazed at the adroitness of the
Spanish Consul's intrigues here during the
past few weeks. Everywhere and through
every ramlBcatinn of tha striko the subtle
band of tbe Spanish authorities in Cuba can be
plplnly traceiL Never before nave strl&es
been marked by foreign interference, hot in
the present instance tbo sorry spectacle baa
been presented of an unwarranted interference
in tbe local affairs of this country by the repre
sentative of a foreign nation, whose hospitality
he is enjoying upon tbe protessed assurance of
good will "and amity toward it by bis Govern
ment, inciting and urging tbe laborer to hos
tility and hatred toward his former employer
and benefactor.
We do not desire to apoear discourteous to
ward the Spanish Consul bere, believing tbat
h& is merely the instrument assigned to carry
out tbe instructions of his superior, but tbe
evidences of his cupidity and cunning have
confronted us at every step. At the very
threshold of the strike we find bim attending a
meeting of the committee called to disenss tbe
situation. Ho was there, not in the Interest of
peace, nor to urg9 a return to work, to arbi
trate their grievances, but with professed pe
cuniary aid fo conveying tbe workmen and
their families from this island. Meantime, bis
paid emissaries were not idle. Tbe influence
of Spanlh gold was being invoked, and pro
visions sent from Havana, add the dissatisfied
laborers whose feelings and sympathies were
tnns captured were urged to return to Cnba.
Even now, after four weeks, when tbe com
mercial interests of tbe island have been
forced to tbe verge of bankruptcy, several
manufacturer) have partly yielded to tho de
mands of the workmen and resumed work, we
find a house-to-house canvass still being made
by agents alleged to be in tbe employ of the
Spanish Consul, urging workmen to avail
themselves of tbe final trip of tbe gunboat, and
return to Cuba before, as they are led to be
lieve, starvation overtakes them. We invite
attention to tbe remarkable unprecedented oc
currence of a Spanish naval vessel sent bere
on four different occasions to convey Cuban
workmen to Havana. Over 1.000 laborers with
their families and effects bare been trans
ported to Cnba.
Of course, we do not question tbe right of
any foreign Government to extend its protec
tion to its subjects when in distress, bet when
we find a representative of tbat Government
violating the hospitality which be is permitted
to enjoy in tbe country under the guise of
friendship, by inciting anil urging its peaceful
inhabifants to abandon tbeir adopted homes,
and furnishing them transportation in a public
vessel, even tbe children of naturalized Ameri
can Darents, we feel tbat the limit of patience
has been reached, and a bait should be called
to administer a fitting rebuke. Tbe fact tbat
thoso conveyed on tbe Spanish war vessel were
permitted to carry their furniture and house
hold effects, having a market value greater
than tbe fare charged by private convey
ance, removes any assumption of destitution.
Attention is also called to tbe telegraphic
columns of La Lucha, the official organ of
Havana, in which appeared a telegram from
Madrid congratulating Captain General Sala
manca on having removed the Cuban colony at
Key West; which menaced Spanish Interests
in America: also to an extract from La Epoca,
published at Madrid, commenting on tbe favor
able impression which bas been created in tbe
Cortes by tbe announcement that tbe Cuban
residents of Key West are returning to Cuba,
thns making a signal victory for the Autono
mists. MRS. HAMILTON GETTING GOOD.

Sometime during July Delbert NichoSI
was missing, and after a search of nearryfa.

them, and now he is endeavoring to obtain
