    niE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-THURSDAY, MAI' 18, 1899.
PAYMENT OF
THE CUBANS
LITTLE PROBABILITY OF OUR
MONEY BEING REJECTED.
Wnr Department Not Disturbed by
Newspaper Reports Official De
spatches Modify Them Consider
ablyTalk of Trouble Merely Cafo
Gossip Native Oillcers Have Lit
tle Influence with Their Men When
It Comes to a Question of Money.
Havana Is Not the Whole Island.
Washington, May 17. Advices re
ceived by the wnr department Indicate
that the press reports which come from
Havana of trouble on account of the
distribution of the $3,000,000 fund to
the Cuban troops nre exaggerated
greatly. Generul Hrooke is expected to
begin the distribution of the money In
strict accordance with the plan orlg
Inally proposed. It Is hoped he will
have the assistance of General Gomez,
but In any ease the distribution Is to
be attempted.
Thp despatches to the war depart
ment Indicate that the trouble Is not
so much with the troops themselves as
with some of the leaders, who dislike
to see their authority broken and who
realise that dlsbandmcnt of the Insur
gents Is to be n fatal blow to their
prestige. It may bp that the lenders
may advise the insurgents not to ac
cept the American bounty ns a condi
tion of laying down their arms, but
the department Is confident that when
it conies to a plain question of taking
or rejecting American gold the troops
will not hesitate very long. They are
In distress and they have nothing to
gain by continuing their organization.
The sum of 575 Is n small fortune to
them, nnd It will take more than the
advice of leaders, actuated by selflt.Ii
motives, to Induce them to reject It.
The Talk of Trouble.
The war department has been In
formed that the reports of trouble arc
based on the talk of Irresponsible per
sons In Havana who lounge obout the
cafes and endeavor to spread sedition.
Tills talk does not represent the real
Cuban sentiment any more than the
barroom gossip In nn American city
would Indicate the real sentiment of
the people of the United States. Out
side of Havana the feeling among the
Cuban troops Is said to be friendly to
the United States and the disposition
among them Is to accept the conditions
Imposed by General Brooke. Very lit
tle Is heard from those men, but in
the end they will be the determining
factor.
As for the so-called Cuban generals,
the department does not pay as much
attention to their complalntH ns It did
formerly. It Is known that they are
chronic "kickers" nnd that they are
never happy except when they are
making or talking of trouble. Their
real Influence Is much smaller than It
was supposed to be. The masses of the
people are desirous of the restoration
of peaceful conditions and of an op
portunity to resume peaceful pursuits.
Whatever may be the feeling be
tween the American troops and the
Cuban troops In the city of Havana,
the administration has confidence that
self-interest will dictate an acceptance
by the Cuban people as a whole of the
new relations which the United States
Is endeavoring to establish. There
may bo mutterlngs of discontent In
some of the principal centres of popu
lation, notably In Havana, where the
Cuban generals now congregate. Tliey
were to bo expected. Cut the adminis
tration has learned much about the
Cuban temperament In the last few
months, and It will go ahead with Us
original plans.
WILDE'S ASSAILANT INSANE.
Sent to nn Asylum Instead of to
Jail.
Mount Holly, N. J., May 17. In the
court of quarter sessions, before Judge
Gasklll, here a number of Indictments
were disposed of. John Coston, col
ored, of Moorestown, was convicted of
stealing money from bis roommate.
Lydla Jaques, tho colored woman
charged with having assaulted Assem
blyman George Wildes, of New Haven,
nnd threatening to burn all of bis farm
buildings, was found guilty. The wo
man was evidently suffering from some
mental troubles, nnd Judge Gasklll em
ployed Drs, Melcher and Parsons to ex
amine her. Their report was that she
was demented, so she will bo committed
to the county asylum.
Jason Archer and Albert Jones, both
residents of Camden, were charged with
stealing chickens from farmers In the
vicinity of Drldgeboro. The testimony
was strong ngalnFt them, and they were
found guilty on three Indictments, not
withstanding a well-supported nllbl.

LIFE CELLS RENEW YOUTH.
New Lymph That Prolongs Life Said
to Have Been Found.
Chicago, 111., May 17. A process of
extending and possibly doubling the
span of human life Is said to have been
discovered by Professors Joseph R.
Hawley and Alexander C. Wiener, of
the Chicago Clinical school. The re
turn to youth, It Is asserted, Is pro
duced by hypodermic Injections of the
lymphatic fluids of animals, particu
larly young goats.
The theory Is that If the mineral de
posits which accumulate In the bones
In the process of life can bo replaced
with Ufa cells contained In the lym
phatic glands of goats, deterioration
of the bones will bo prevented and
elasticity nnd youth will be retained
In tho system much longer.
In one of his experiments of the
Clinical school, Dr. Hawley adminis
tered hypodermic Injections of the iluid
from the lymphatic glands of a goat to
u dog known to bo 14 years old.
In two months mineral deposits bad
been removed from the dog's bones
nnd the animal was as lively as a
puppy.
A number of human beings, It Is said,
have been experimented on In Chicago
In tho same way and with the same
results.
SPANKED A SAUCY MAID.
Mistress' Radical Disapproval of
Late Hours.
New York. May 17. Alleen Russell,
19 years old, of No. COS East Forty
ninth street, had her mistress, Mrs.
Hose Komle, of No. 37.1 Willis avenue,
summoned in court todnv on the charge
of assault.
Miss Russell told the magistrate that
as she had not been allowed a Sunday
off for two months sho took one nny
how last Sunday and did not return
until late. She went to her room and
had reached the point In disrobing
where nothing remains but to put out
the light nnd get Into bed, when her
mlstiess entered nnd upbraided her.
When the girl retorted airs. Komle,
who is a powerful woman, threw her
across her knee and administered a
spanking. The next morning Miss
Russell says she was ejected from the
housu without her pay. Mrs. Komle
made a counter-charge' of assault.
The magistrate succeeded In restor
ing harmony to such an extent that the
women agreed to try tho experiment
of living together once more.
HEIRESS BY SECRET MARRIAGE
Hotel Maid's Daughter Sues to Pos
sess $400,000.
Chicago, 111., May 17. Mrs. Florence
Moscherrosch.tbe wife of an Anaconda.
Mont., miner, today filed In the super
ior court a bill asking that she be
adjudged to be the heir to $100,000
worth of Chicago property left by
Henry W. Martin, a Chicagoan, who
died intestate in May, 189S, and who,
she claims, was her father.
The filing of the bill bus divulged a
romance which has been kept secret
for 27 years. Martin began his Chicago
career as a letter carrier, but, after
tho fire of 1871, Invested his savings In
leaseholds and real estate and became
wealthy.
Mrs. Moscherrosch alleges that Mar
tin married Florence Conrad, a servant
In a Chicago hotel, In 1S72, nnd that a
year later plaintiff was born to the
couple; that sho was brought up In
secrecy, nnd the marrlngo kept secret
to deceivo Martin's people.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.
By Associated Press.
Now York, May 17. The eVipltallsts
behind tho Flower group generally felt
encouraged with tho firmness and confi
dence dlRplnyed by tho market Blnco tho
crisis that they made up their minds to
day to complete Its rehabilitation and to
put prices back to whero they wero n
Friday last. It was not until tho latter
part of the day that this purpose seemed
to bo taken seilously In hand. In fact
tho Flower stocks as a group were con
spicuously quiet during tho early part of
tho day. Their position seemed to bo
left to tho natural courso of events. The
market gradually but persistently hard
ened under various influences, Chicago
Terminal, the Iron and steel shares,
Sugar nnd Tobacco and New York munic
ipal corporation stock advancing sharply.
In the late afternoon tho market was
steadier to dull. People's Gas, tho Fed
cral Steel stocks, International Paper,
Hock Island and Atchison preferred are
from 1 to 4 points hlghor. Tho railways
shared very generally In tho latter
strength of the market, tho close being
buoyant and actlva at tho very top. To
tnl sales, ti."i0,400 shares. The demand for
bond bought persistently for pretty
much all Issues brought prohibitive
prices,
By Carrlngton &.' Cusack.
New York, May 17. Tho market opined
nwuiig, ai a sugni aavanco ntovo cms
lug prices and continued fnlily active
nnd strong throughout tho (.ay, buying
being of tho very best character and
very well distributed. London traded
both ways, buying in tho early part of
tho day and selling later. Flower brok
ers wero conspicuous In their special
ties, and commission houses report an
Increase of business. The Flower stocks
wore easily leaders In the advance and
we seo no reason why, nllowing for mar
ket declines they are not a purchase nny
whero below their Into high prices.
There undoubtedly should bo somo sot
back but it will bo of a nominal charac
ter only, and the money to bo mado is
undoubtedly on the long side of tho
mnrket. Tho crop reports wero of a dis
tinctly more favorablo character and
with the good weather extending all over
tho country, there seems very Httlo
question but what wo shall have an Im
provement for tho time being, nt least.
This has lead to renewed buying In thn
Grangers and thn stumlnrd railroad
stocks generolly. People's Gas was tho
fcaturo of tho Industrial market, advanc
ing nearly 0 per cent, on very good buy
ing nnd tho covering of shorts.
The bears seemed to havo been pretty
well licked nil nlong the line and tho
short Interest tins been greatly dimin
ished, so that It 13 fair to presume that
tho market may be somewhat erratic
unless there Is a continuance of cllquo
buying. At tho same time, on any weak
spot it Is undoubtedly a purchase. Peo
ple's Gns. Brooklyn Rapid Transit and
Federal Steel are nlmost suro purchases
and the specialties llko Continental To
bacco, Itubber, Tennessee Coal and Iron,
O. F. & I. should bo bought, If at any
time weak. C. F. & 1. is almost sure to
recover Its prices. The news that Gov
ernor Roosevelt hnd called nn extra ses
sion of the legislature on Monday Is con
sidered rather a bull factor, the amend
ments ho desires being In tho line to
fairer dealings with tho corporations.
Tho mnrket closed very strong at the
best prices of the day.
