REFORMING CUBA

A despatch from our Madrid CORES.
pendent announces that the Governor
General Of Cuba has confirmed severe
on large number of Span
ish officials in Cuba found guilty of
malfeasanee in Office. We are glad To
know that public opinion in SPAN sus
tains this action Of the Governor Gem
eral. FoF years past Cuba has been a
preserve for the amassing Of fortunes
corruptiy by favorites Of the Spanish
Ministers. The island has been GOV.
erned very much as Tweed governed
New York, and there is little doubt
that the revolutionary sentiment which
has disturbed Spanish rule ia Cuba
has been intensified by official con-
nivance at this corruption. The fact
that the present King has taken the
matter In hand and already made q
striking example Of criminal oflcials

Nh6nn NEW eOMEAHhhu bBEkId0 AD-
MISSION TO WILMINGTON.
A few weeks age the Wilmington
Coal Gas Company was the only organ
iEation OF the kind tbe In this city, and
with the small institutions in New
Castle, Smyrna and Dover, furnished all
the gas consumed In the State. But dur
ing the closing days OF the Legislature
three new companies were chartered, and
all three are now knocking at the doors
OF Wilmington for entrance upon the
streets, lanes and alleys OF this city.
The first opposition company charters
ed was the Diamond state Coal Gas
Company, against which the existing
gas company made bitter, but inc feet
ual fight. Its corporations are mainly
WilmiDRtonians, and they say they
mean TO start active operations for sup.
plying The people with good, cheap gas,
Az soon az their organisation Is effected
which will be In a lew weeks. The
other companies Incorporated were the
Delaware Heat, Light and Water Com
pany, and the union Gas Company.
The latter company, whose corpora
tors are mainly Phiiadelphisns, were
represented before City Council, last
eve ming, by Mr.. Murphy and James
III. Shakespeare, Esq, OF Philadelphia,
who presented q peiiuon for permission
to lay gas mains and pipes in this city,
The petition was referred TO the Lamp
COMMITTEES.
It. ID altogether likely the other two
companies will ask the City Council for
the same privilege, and this. coupled
with the opposition most likely to come
from the home company, will make q
lively fight over the gas question before
