rived, says that only by prompt action
Captain General Cslleja narrowly
averted serious uprising in Havana.
Since the imprisonment of Gomez, the
negro leader, his sympathizers have
been very much incensed, and worked
up scheme to attack the palace. The
time chosen for this attack was Friday
night. The government learned of the
impending trouble, however, and the
captain general instructed his officers
to use every possible preoaution. The
guards around the palace were quad
rupled and 100 soldiers were stationed
inside. The city patrol was heavily in.
creased. The negroes, hearing OF thope
precautions, gave up the scheme. It is
said that the plan was for the sole pur-
pose of releasing Gomez.

STORMY SCENE AT ATLANTA.
Sensational Meeting of Police
Commissioners.
O"rt' d w. Ene1ish's limo as Chairman
oftho Board Having Expired, Mayor
King,in Accordance With an Ordinance
of the City Council, Attempts TO Pre-
side TemporariIy-His Authority Not
Acknowledged.

ATLANTA, Ca, March 25.-A most
stormy and sensational meeting of the
board OF police commissioners was held
this morning. The meeting was an
adjourned one. At the last meeting
Capt. j. W. English. who has been
chairman of the board for twelve wears.
presided. His time was out, but bv
common consent he held over. The
board tried to elect a chairman to suc-
coed him, but was unable to do go.
There was deadlock.
since the meeting the CITY council
passed an ordinance to the effect that
Mayor King should act as temporary
chairman of the board until permanent
chairman was selected. At the meeting
this morning three members of the
boari, English, Venable and Branan.
refused to acknowledge Mayor King as
chairman. Veneble attempted to speak,
and was told to sit down by Mr.. king.
He refused to do so, and Mayor King
ordered Chief Of Police Connally to
make Vensble sit down.
Connally refused to act and King
ordered the chief OF police from the
room. He refused to go, and the mayor
ordered q police captain to relieve Con
nally, The two factions lined up on
different sides of the room, and for SOW,
ernl moments it seemed as hard blows
would result. The mayor dispatched q
messenger on horseback for the city
marshal to arrest Connally, but before
the marshal arrived, Oonpally, acting
upon tho advice OF Captain English and
other members OF the board, had left
the room. The end is not yet, and no
one seems to know when it will come
nor Whist the result will be.
After this stormy scene tho board
subsidized into peculiar deadlock.
Mayor King sat at one end OF the
table, claiming to be chairman, and
recognized as such by three members,
Captain English occupying q geas at
the opposite end, and being recognized
and addressed ss chairman by the
other members. With this paridoxical
stSte of affairs, the board proceeded
to the routine work OF oiecting mem.
bers OF tho police force, this being tho
time for that annual ceremony. No
member dared to leave, fearing tho
other side should take advantage of his
absence to elect q chairman, and there
Is no telling whom tho tie will be
broken. The affair has created the
greatest interest, and is the sole tall,

Tho props were knocked away, tho
