CRIMINAL ASSOCIATION.
Of Cuban Order of White and
Black DesperadOes.

Suppression of a Cuban Order of White and
Black Desperadoes.
HAVANA, Jan. 1S-The secret associa-
tion in this city, 'Los Nanigos." is being
suppressed. This criminal association was
in earlier times composed of African ne
groes exclusively. The Africans dsap-
peared and the society consists of Cuban
negroes and a small number of whites.
The Nanigos association is resolved into
many groups Or parties. Each wears and
uses its own particular signs, and there
are no greater enemies than two Nanigos
who may belong to different bands. All
these several bands hold regular sessions
A new member, among other things, must
drink the blood while still warm of cock
whose head has been cut Off.
The principal purpose of the primitive
Nanigos was a simple union against the
white race, but that character has disap-
peared, and in later years their efforts ap-
pear to be confined mainly to a big war
upon each other. Shots exchanged in the
streets of Havana by Nanigos Of different
bands have frequently created alarm and
excitement. The police arrested the lead
ers of some Mango bands. These upon
being released delivered up all the appar.
atus used in their ceremonies and prom
ised to dissolve. Later two other bands
surrendered their paraphernalia and
promised to go out of existence. The
and dissolution of the remain.
ing bands are soon expected.

RACES:
j. II. hey, Sheriff of Kemper County Miss:
JACKSON, Miss. Jan. lS.-Sherif Rogers, Of
Noxube,, says there Is no mob law in that
county, but some clandestine acts have been
committed in kemper County on the line: that

Of property was done by parties living out
side OF Noxubee. I urge that you not only
visit the vicinity Of your own county, bus
go TO Shuqualak, see officers and citizens there,
especially Chamberlain, and have afiidavits
made and arrest every man In your county that
has been engaged in such violation of the law.
Your sworn duty and the good name of your
county demand your prompt and energetic &C
ton. Summon sufficient force to execute the
law, and all extra expenses that you may incur
will be paid here. In the faithful discharge OF
your duty will give you all the aid and suppors
conferred on the executive by the Constitution
and laws. Wire me ut my expense.

THE HAYTIEN REPUBLIC.
One of Legitime's GunbOats Attempts Il
Sink the Vessel.

One of Legitime's Gunboats Attempts to
Sink the Vessel.
PORT AU PRINCE, HaytI, Jan. 3-The
steamship Haytien Republic was run into
by the Haytien gunboat Nouville Void
rogue, on the night of December 90 with
out serious damage to either vessel.
The Haytien gunboat was entering
the harbor at full speed, and could
have steamed to her anchorage without any
change of course, but when within 200
yards Of the Haytien Republic her helm
was suddenly put to port and remained so
until she struck that vessel. Then her en-
gines were reversed and she backed to Q
distance Of two hundred yards. She then
again steamed at full speed until short
distance from the Haytien Republic, when
her course was slightly changed, thus just
missing her.
1t is the opinion that it was deliberate
attempt to sink the released ship. 1t il Q
question whether the scheme was orig.
mated by a higher authority than tho
Captain Of the gunboat.
The Galena officers met next day and q
demand for an investigation was made
upon the Haytien Government. The re-
ports will be presented and redress de-
mandsd upon the return Of the Galena
from Kingston, Jamaica, on January 20,
where she steamed on January to coal
and communicate by cable with the Amer.

WASHINGTON, Jan 17.-One of the most
pronounced of the anti-Blaine Republican
Senators said yesterday: Il think that
Blaine will go into the Cabinet. 1t will be
impossible for General Harrison to pre-
vent it The so-called young Republic
ans of the country are of the opinion that
Blaine is the greatest man in the party,
and it will not be possible for the new adj
mnistration to disregard it. 1t would lie
poor policy to do so. Those of us who
have lived near to Blaine might think diff
ferently, but as matter of practical poll
tics am satisfied that Harrison will de-
eide to make Mr.. Blaine the Secretary of
State. believe, nevertheless, that Har.
rison will be President"

EXCITED GERMANS.
The War Party Looking For a Brush with
the United States.


LONDON, Jan. 1S-The expressions Of
American opinion in relation to Samoan
affairs, which have been widely copied in
Germany, appear to have excited among
the leading journals and prominent classes
a mingled feeling of Indignation and con-
tempt. Certainly the gaze:tes of the larger
cities are aware of the population and
wealth of the United States, but they re-
gard the country as in ignificant in a mill
Itary sense, and as only intent on trade
and the development of the unsettled por-
tions of its large territory. The idea that
such distant and unwarlike nation would
care to interfere with the new colonial
policy seems to Germans to be audacious
in the highest degree. Naval officers who
wish to win laurels equal to those which
their military brothers have gained ON
land are hopeful of a difficulty with the
United States, and it is even regarded at
headquarters as rather q desirable event
in order to give experience to the crews
and suggest future improvements in the
vessels. The Germans have some good
ships. well armed and the men present q
sufficiently smart appearance. but the lat
ter have not given any proof Of seaman-
ship to the world as vet.
