titled with the city's growth, died at an
early hour this morning. Mr.. Carpenter

and the illness which ended in his death
was one of long standing. He was a man
of considerable attainmepts and his loss
will be greatly felt. The funeral will be
held at Rock Creek Church Saturday after

Mr.. Carpenter was well known to the Dis

CUBAN SYMPATHlZERS
Spain Objects to Their Open Encourage
ment in This Country.
Minister De LONE Addresses the State
Department About Some Reports
From the South.

Mr. de LONE, the Spanish minister to the
United States, has called the attention of
the State Department to allegations that
flibustering expeditions against Spanish
authority in Cuba are being fitted out in
the bayous of the lower Mississippi river.
The communica ton also stated that armed
citizens of some of the southern states
often paraded with arms, with view to
Joining some of these outgoing expeditions,
or, at least, to give active encoura cement
to the Cuban insurrectionists. Some of the
statements made covered facts of which
the United States government can take no
official notice and others were too meaSer
for present official action. 1t is believed at
the department that there is little truth in
the reports which reach here from the
south of the fitting out of warlike expedi-
tions against Cuba, but should it be shown
that expeditions are being organized, which
come within the prohibitions of ,interna-
tional law and our treaties with Spain,
there will be no delay in bringing the par
ties concerned to justice.
Watching Suspected Expeditions.
1t is learned that the Spanish officials
here are keeping a close watch on several
supposed eNpeditionary movements, for the
purpose of furnishing information On which
to request action by the United States gov
ernmeEt. One of these expeditions is be-
Heved to nave started from Philadelphia,
the suspected Shlps, II IS SAID at Inc SPAN
isi legation. being the George Childs and
the Bridgeport. 1t is alleged that these
ships touched at Greenwich, after clearing
from Philadelphia, with the ostensible pur-
pose of meking repairs. but really. ii is
charged. to take on arms gunpowder and
iargr supplies of food suitable fo- an CA
pelillona.y movement. The Spanish offi-
Gals cunEe-t the movement of these shiLs
with suspicious operations at Dauphin and
Cat Islands off the mouth of the Misss-
sippi. There are indications, they say, that
the movements at gulf points and those
starting from Philadelphia will be con-
centrated Off the coast of southern Flor
ida. 1t is said that these movements are
mainly the result of the recent arrival in
the United States of Gen. Cucsada from
Venezuela, VINO brought a considerable
sum of money to aid the Cuban cause, and
another sympatbizer who is said TO have
brought $4,000 from Paris.

MIR. MANOGUEs REPLY.
President Cleveland In still Awaiting
Its Receipt.

Up TO o'clock this afternoon Collector
Manogue had failed to comply with the
Presidents request for his resignation.
The Presidents letter was mailed yesterday
and was probably not delivered till this
morning. If Mr.. Manogue mailed his re-
ply today il would hardly be received be-
fore tomorrow morning. No further action
Will probably be taken until Mr.. Manogue
Is heard from. 1t is generally believed that
the President has already selected his
successor and will announce his appoint
ment as soon as Mr.. Manogue's resignation
is at hand. 1t Is possible, but not likely
that Mr.. Manogue will not resign. In that
event, IL is said, he will be removed al
though the President is believed to be
averse to such action

Mt. oLMsTEAD,s STUDIES.
Pressing Different Plans for Extension
o. ~ of: Streets.


o. of; Streets.
Frederick Law OImstead, who was named
ty Congress to examine the plans for the
extension' of Streets had a hearing before
the Commissions ers this morning He called
to exhibit a study Pf what is known as the
Connecticut avenue section about which
considerable has been written. Originally,
it will be remembeted, it vas thought best
to lay out the. STREETS in this section with
cut regard to the city plan. but at the pub
lie hearing on this subject so much orpo-
sition was DEVELOPED by the large property
interests involved that it -,as decided to
lay out as far aseipossihle the streets as
direct extensions of the city al.n. That
was, of course, where the topography Of
the country admitted it. Where it was
hilly and rough, 1t was thought best to
provide curved streets.
This morning Mr. Olmstead showed an
other study Of the section, with neariy ali
the streets west of Connecticut aveuue in
lire with the city streets. Those st cts
east of Connecticut avenue are slightly
curved, and laid off in blocks approximate e.
Iy of the same area as the city blocks. The
Commissioners carefully examined the
plans, but did nothing.

adds that, owing to fresh disturbances on

the situation of affairs In Cuba than does
the captain general of that island. for the
cabinet. after thoroughly discussing the
situation from all its standpoints, has de-
cided to send ten additional battalions Of
infantry to Cuba without delay.
The republicans in the chamber of depu-

There Is small pretense OF concealment

THE PATENT OFFICE GAZETTE.

Statement of the Secretary of the
Norris Peters Employees Association.
To the Editor of The Evening Star:
In an article headed THE Patent Office

Justice to the employees of the Norris Peters
Company. Knowing that The Evening Star
means to be fair to all, we would respect
fully request you to publish the following:
1t is true that the employees Of the Norris
Peters Company have organized for mutual
protection, and surely We have the same
right of organization as any other trades
union. This was done without the knowl-
edge or consent of the Norris Peters Com
pany, and not against any bidder or bid
ders for the patent office work. 1t is
is immaterial to us who receives the con-
tract for the work in question. but We
claim the right to work for whom we
choose.
The honorable commissioner of patents
awards the contract to the lowest bidder.
We are trying to sell our services TO the
highest bidder. The work in question is
Of the highest technical character, and re-
quires skill ard years Of practical expeT-
ience. Two years ago the contract WAS
awarded to a company with a capital of
$780, as shown by the Senate investigation.
The result was that great many of us
were compelled to walk the streets in idle
ness.
W hGn bidS were oSt-eu ipE tHe WoTh III
question for the ensuin;, year, we organ
lied to prevent a repetition Of the above
if possible.
Our action all through has been open
and above board. We simply want COM
petitors to understand for all time that We
are not to De sold like sheep to any one
who chooses to hid on the patent office
work.
We wish to reiterate in the strongest
possible manner that our action was TAX IN
of our own motion. and without any sug-
gestion or knowledge on the part of the
