tarv OF the Treasury to the system OF
the bank. The examinations he says,
of the Newark deialcation, shows other

so inirequent as to be OF no practical

Why Cook Was Not Present.


WASHINGTON, November 2.-Colonel
VIM. A. Cook, the Special Assistant At
torney General to present the Star
Route cases, telegraphs from Phlladel-
Phia why he was not in court Monday
when the counsel ior the defendants
were present to argue motion to quash
the information filed against Brady and
others. He SAWS: "The action OF the
defendants counsel in the Star Route
case has all the appearance OF profess
sional trick. They knew | was absent,
and would return in day or two. The
understanding was that on the return OF
Colonel Ingersoll a day satisfactory to
all should be fixed. did not know he
had returned. If notice was left at
nv office. it was with the knowledge
that | was absent. We will all be on
hand tomorrow
Attorney General MacNeagh states
that he long ago declared that he would
prepare the Star Route cases for court
and then drop them. That he never
had any Intention OF going beyond the
Grand Jury with them, and in pursu-
ance OF this plan he employed eminent
counsel for the prosecution. Therefore,
he maintains that he cannot justly be
charged with abandoning the cases or
shirking duty in insisting upon leaving
the Cabinet. The President is undoubt-
edly desirous of holding MacNeagh
until these cases are disposed OF, and he
does not intend to let James leave the
Cabinet until the Star Route prosecu-
tions are ended. Apparent dilIatoriness
on the part OF the prosecution has had
the effect OF awakening suspicion here
that the prosecutors do not regard the
evidence as so strong as they have
stated. All seeming hesitation on the
part Of the Government renders the de-
PENDANTS more defiant than ever. The
defendants are saving that MacN eagh
has run and that James is preparing to
back out by leaving The Cabinet i'll 4
month Or two.

MMwAUKEE, November 1.-The Mil
lers' Association, to-day, passed a reso-
luton asking the Chamber Of Commerce
to enforce the rigid inspection OF wheat,
as the best quaint ty OF wheat is coming i |
from the northwest, which, while it
looks fair and grades No. = and even
No. l, is badly injured by rain and is
damp and tough and totally unfit for
d. ur. The Association also telegraphed
as follows: ITO the Millers' Association,
Minneapolis: At a meeting OF the millers
OF this city, to-day, it was resolved that
owing to the unwarranted condition OF
the wheat market, whichis manipulated
in the interests oil speculation and
against legitimate bu:iness, We believe it
+ te for the interests OF the millers OF

q I'd shut down their mills until the price

in favor of government under the
sway of Spain like that OF Canada and
Australia under English rule, made a
speech in the Cortes to-day, criticising
the policy of the Liberal government,
its delays in carrying out reforms, its
hesitation in treating with precedents
and with the officials Of the Cancvas
government, Its detention OF so many
Cuban prisoners in Europe, its ndul-
gence OF the abuses of the colonial ad-
ministrstion, and its playing into the
hand OF the Creole conservatives ana
planters, who were ever subservlent to
the Madrid government on condition OF
being allowed their own way on the IS
land.
Leon Y. Castillor, minister OF colonies,
in a long speech upbraided Ithe impa-
tience and ingratitude OF the Cuban
Liberals. He enumerated what the
Sogasta cabinet had done in seven
months for Cuba. The constitution was
promulgated; censorship OF the press
abolished and the press laws OF Spain
implanted; military relationships made
impossible; more liberties allowed than
exist in SpanishAmerican republics,
