The Chicago Jubilee.

CHICAGO, June 6-The attendance at the Sec
ond Jubilee Concert last evening was immense.
1t is estimated that 10000 persons were in the
building. The programme included many pieces
performed at Boston last year.
The most notable successes of the perform
ance were the singing, of the Haleluiah chorus
the Anvil chorus aud the singing of "Ameri-
ca" The Anvil chorus was repeated in ans
wer to uprorious encore. The number of strang-
ers in the city cannot be less than $4,000, and
by some it is estimated at so, 900.
This afternoon the last concert will be given,
introducing "a chorus of one thousand School
children.
This morning number of invited guests will
be taken on an excursion to various points of
interest in and around the city. Toni ht Sc
lect ball will be given in the hall of the Board
of Trade, which will conclude the programme.
The last of the regular concerts OF the Jubi-
lee were given this afternoon to an audience
that while not so large as that of last evening,
was still of sufficient to crowd the immense de-
pot where the concerts have given, aud being
largely composed of children it exceeded in
noise and confusion either of those of yester-
day. AS a natural consequence, the orchestral
effect was almost entirely destroyed

Cuban AT IRIS.
HAVANA, June 6.-The tribune attacks and
condemns the colonization society for not pro-
tecting the rights of the Coolies. 1t regrets
that the society fails to secure humane treat
ment for the Chinese laborers and better pros
poets for them when their contracts expire.
The cruelty with which they are treated causes
them to resort to suicide, murder or flight. 1t
denounces the compulsory re-contract system,
and charges that the present rules were con,
cocted by men, who, finding that they could
not continue their illicit traffic in human flesh,
attempt to cheat the law by changing the name
of the traffic.
The same journal reports that persons of
known Carlist proclivities in Santiago De, Cuba
have sent 92O,000,0O0 sterling to the Carlist
Committee at London, to assist the insurrec
ton which is now devastating Spain.
The Diario opposes the Federal Republic and
argues that nearly all the Spanish American
Republics have been unsuccessful because they
strive to initiate the Federal system of the
United States, while the governments of Chill
and Peru endure becaure they have rejected the
principle of federalism.
The government yesterday released from con-
finement the American citizen, Augustin Santa
Rosa.

AN APPEAL FOR AID. Are there any manu.
featuring companies whose operatives have not
contributed their mite towards completing the
Maine General Hospital building? The pay of
one day or one half days work given for this
purpose would be an act of the greatest charity
to many unfortunate persons who become dis
ahled by accident. Are there any persons who
have fair share of this worlds goods, who
have not donated to this institution, which is
for the benefit of the sick? Can they not, while
in the enjoyment of plenty, spare o trife for
this Hospital Fair. You who have been bless
ed with earthly goods, can you refuse to con-
tribute, when you see so large number of OPP
eratives giving the amount of pay they receive
for their toll through long day? When you
sec children donating their little savings to aid
in mitigating the pains of the sick and distresses
of the poor by affording them house of re-
fuge, will you decline to aid in allevating their
distress, and to convey some rays of light, of
comfort into the abodes where darkness, wretch.
edness and sickness prevail?
