DELAYED BY

The Case of
Mrs. Nellet
Hrc.
Still Hangs
MR. SCANLAN WAS NOT READY
Ha Again Declined to go Upon the Witness
Stand, Alleging That Ills Counsel
Was Unable to be Present
During the Hearing.
Yestorday was tho day fixed for further
curing In the case of Mrs. Mary Mcllct ou
tho rules she has procured from cimrt upon
ho lsorough Council to show cause why her
name should not bo stricken fioni tho bonds
of Tax Collector Seanlan for the years 1603
and 189(1, but when the time arrived to tako
estimony another postponement was made
necessary becauso Tax Collector Seanlan was
not ready to proceed.
MI other parties to the proceedings were nt
hand and ready for business liurough Solici
tor llurke was theio to represent tlio Council
and lion. James II. Heilly was ou hand to
ook after the Interest nf Mrj. Mcllot.
Mr. Seanlan appeared at Mr. Itcitly's ollico
at the time fixed, but when ho was calleil to
tho stand ho assumed tho s.inic pi'sitiou he
took at tho last hearing, answering the call
of the subpoena served upon him. but de
clining tn submit to examination hcciiusu his
couuscl was noi. present. The first time he
declined his counsel, W. J. Whitobouse, Ksq
was cngagol in court. Yctorday Mr.
Scmlaii said his lawyer was in Philadelphia,
These repeated delays aro causing undis
guised impatience on thu part of tlio borough
authorities, as well as on behalf of Mrs.
Mellet's counsel. The case is closed witii the
exception of Mr. Sicilian's testimony, and
both sides arc anxious to get tho n atter be
fore the court as early as possible. It is
their intention to submit arguments ou the
1st Monday of December, but there is danger
that the case may drag along until after tho
first c.f the year, unless Mr. Scanlan's conn
sel can arrange to appear nt an early day.
ibe matter has occasioned no little corn
incut, borne of the parties intcicsted are nt
a loss to undorstaud why Mr. Seanlan should
require the attendance of counsel, when he
is not a party to the litigation, but merely
witness; and it is not nt all unlikely that
should delays ho continued efforts will bo
made to require tho collector to appear nud
testify, regardless of his counsel's engage
incuts, so that the question raised by Mrs.
Mellct may be disposed of at an early date.

WnshlnRton, Nov. 20. A special meet
ing of the cabinet wag hold at 10 o'clock
last nlBht. All the members were with
the preHldent except Secretary Long,
who Is out of the city. The meeting:
was called by the prepldpnt In order
that his advisers might consider with
him a dispatch received last night
from the peace commldBlonerg at ParlR.
It Is underRtood that the advices re
lated to counter proposals informallly
made to the American commissioners
by the representatives on the commis
sion of the Madrid government.
At the conclusion of the meeting.
which lasted only 40 minutes, and was
held In the parlors of the White House,
Secretary of State Hay said to a press
representative that the president had
received some advices from Paris that
he desired to lay before the cabinet,
and that he had called the members to
gether to consider them. The nature
of the advices Mr. Hay declined to dis
cuss, as he said that was a matter
which could not be Rone Into for pub
licatlon at this time. He added, how
ever, that after considering the con
tents of the dispatches the president
had cabled the American commission
ers reiterating his former Instructions.
It Is understood that one point, new
In the negotiations thus far, was raised
'in the dispatches received by the presi
dent. It related to a modification of the
terms of the proposition submitted to
the Spanish commissioners a few days
ago by the American commissioners,
but In just what particular the pro
posed modification was to be made
could not be ascertained. That the
proposition was not accepted was made
clear by the president In cabling to
the American commispioners a reitera
tion of his former Instructions. The
American commissioners will Insist
that the demands of the United State-
as presented to Spain a few days ago
be considered without forther modifica
tion. That they will be acceded to by
the Spanish commissioners Is the ear
nest belief of the members of the cab
inet and the president.

Paris, Nov. 20. Senor Montero Ttlos
told tho press correspondents last
evening that the Spanish commission
ers had not decided upon the answer
to be given to the last American mem
orandum.
We are considering the matter," he
said. "In a conciliatory spirit, and are
anxious to re-establish friendly rela
tions between the two countries. At
the same time we are here to defend
the interests and honor of Spain."
In reply to an inquiry as to whether
there was any truth in the report that
the Spanish commissioners had decided
to accept the American offer of $20,000,
000 for the Philippines Sinnr Mcintero
Hlos, shaking his head, said:
"No, no, the commission has not de
cided on its answer. What our reply
will lie can only he decided at the con
ference on Mi nday, when wo will dis
cuss the matter with the Americans.
At the same time," he added in a still
lower voice, "wo will follow the In
structions that may be received from
Madrid."
"Then the final Instructions have not
vet como?" naked the correspondent.
"Ah. but we are approaching a con
fidential matter," said Senor rtlos, In
nocently. "Everything connected with
both commissions Is a secret."
It Is hinttrl that the delay In the
peine negotiations here Is chiefly due
to the Irritation of Benor Montero Itlos,
who wants tu l-i-slgn and has only con
sented to retain his membership In the
Paris commission on a personal ap
peal of Senor Sagasta to his patriotism,
the premier hnvlnp assured him that
personal respoiiFihillty is In no wise
involved.
