Has received orders from tho government
| to get ready for sea at the earliest moment
possible and proceed to Cuba. He expects
his vessel to DO out of dry dock in 20
days, when nothing will remain to DO

MORE MURDERS.
Of the six passengers arrested on the
steamer City of New York, at Havana,
| three were women, and one niece OF
ALBANIA. Extensive correspondence was
found sccretcd about their clothing. By
this correspondence many persons on the
| island hitherto unexpected, were impli
Gated, and as the Moro Castle left Havana
they were being shot without mercy. II
WAS estimated that 40 patriots on various
portions of the island have met this
| fate.
CLEARING HOUSE.
Tho clearing house association is now in
| session, having under consideration the
report of the committee Of nine. A fow
seem to think tho report will not be adopted
whatever other opposition may be made
of it.
The clearing house meeting to-day
lasted 3 hours, and the discussions were
quite warm. A motion was made to lay
the report of the committee of nino on
the table, which WAS voted down by 80
nays to 8 ayes. Then it was moved that
the report be postponed sixty days, which
WAS rejected by vote Of 40 to Is. Vail,
of tho Bank of Commerce, thence for
mally withdrew from the meeting, and was
followed by representatives of the Me-
tropolitan, Grocers and the State of New
York banks. All of tho above banks are
opposed to the reform measure. After
wards tho Fourth National, Mercantile
and the New York banks
LEFT THE MEETING,
Then vote was taken on the report rs II
whole. The vote on this stood II nays !;
AZ ayos, with amendments. lhe
articles of tho association were
then taken up separately for
amendment, but from Nos. | to 10 inclu-
sive were passed over, Article 20 was
amended 50 AS to read IA, follows: "No
member of the clearing house association
shall DO allowed to redeem checks of any
association, corporatian, firm or individ-
ual, excepting upon regularly incorpo-
rated banks located in tho cities Of New
York, Brooklyn, Jersey City and Hobo
ken which banks shall be subject to ex-
animation Of their condition by commit
tees of the clearing house whenever
deemed necessary"
Section of article % was amended SO
as to read as follows:
That it will not receive upon deposits
as cash dealers checks drawn otheI-
wise than upon banks which aro members
of this association, Or upon such regularly
banks as heretofore provided
by article 20. a motion was made to al
low three per cent. interest on deposits,
which was voted down by large ma
jority.
Article 20 was stricken out, as tho
law provides for necessary reserve. The
feeling was very strong against the certi-
hcation of checks, and paying interest on
deposits. The banks will meet again on
Tuesday next to finally dispose of tho re-
port.
BROKER ARRESTED.
Benz. Warner, II curbstone broke, was
arrested to-day for having 1915, 1000 United
States bonds on his possession. They are
supposed to be part of those stolen two
year ago from the Logozo trust of the
Cuban Junto. Warner states that he re-
ceivod the bonds from one Andrew j.
Parker, who has since been arrested.
THE STORY THAT
one Roman, a member of the 7th regiment
Of the New York miletis has been arrested

up and stocks down. The matter quietcd
soon afterwards.
