SECRETARY OLNEY

Declines to Discuss the Alleged Notice to
tho Spanish Minister that the Cuban Re.
belllon Must be Soon Put Down.
BOsTON, Oct. 12.-Secretary Olney,
although several times qLestione d
about the matter to-day. declined to
discuss the question that the ad-
ministration has notified Minister Du-
puy de LONE ''that there is necessity
that Spain should act promptly in her
efforts to crush the insurrection In
Cuba"
The fact that the report was pub.
lished Immediately following an inter.
view between the secretary and min.
lister yesterday seems to give color OF
truth to the statement, but in view OF
the near approach of the date of the
meeting of congress. and of the fact
fact that President Cleveland must. al
most necessarily, refer to the subject in
his annual message to that body. it is
more than probable that there has
been no communication made to Min.
lister Dupuy de LONE importing any
change of policy on the part of the ad-
ministration to take effect before the
meeting of congress.
Mr.. Dupuy de LONE makes weekly
visits to Washington rom Bryn Mawr,
where he is spending October with his
family, to call upon Secretary Olney
on the regular diplomatic day at the
state department. He was seen Thurs
day by a representative of the United
Press, to whom he stated that his pres
ence in Washington at that time had
no especial significance. He returned
to PHILADELPHIA a yesterday morning.

Republicans Distressed by Improved Busi-

The improvement in the finances of
the country and in the general condi-
ton of business has disclosed the ex-
istence of painful state of mind
among the editors of certain republic
an papers. The announcement that
the receipts of the treasury for the
month will exceed the disbursements
causes them deep distress The esti-
mate that the continuous deficit of the
past two years will hereafter be re-
placed by a steadily increasing sur
plus is received by them with every
indication of genuine sorrow. They
try not to believe it.
They even go so far as to argue
that it must be mistake. They ac-
cuse the treasury department of with
holding payments, of starving the
government service, of juggling with
the transaction of public business, OF
seeking to force a balance for the pur-
pose of influencing the elections.

Celebration of the Anniversary of the
First Uprising In Cuba.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Oct. 11.-A ca
Dlegram from Key West, Fla, says:
Never in the history of this city has
there been such enthusiasm as was
displayed yesterday, the twenty-ninth
Cuban independence. From one end
of the city to the other business
houses and private residences were
gaily decorated with American and
Cuban flags. Many vessels in the har-
Dor were also decorated with all the
bunting available.
Promptly at o'clock in the morn
ing the booming of cannon began, and
at the same hour the American and
Cuban flags were hoisted over the city
hall. Speeches were made from the
balcony by Messrs. Ben McLendon and
and Francisco Gonzales. The band
played the national airs and the spec
tators cheered themselves hoarse.
Both American and Cuban flags were
also hoisted over the county court
house.
The various Cuban clubs met at the
San Carlos hall in the afternoon, and
were joined by the several fire compa-
nies. u. A. z. corps and Sons of Vet
erans- They formed a procession,
headed by the Key West cornet band.
and marched to the cemetery, where
patriotic speeches were delivered.
The ceremonies finished. they
marched back to the San Carlos hall.
where they dispersed. just as the
procession arrived at the San Carlos and
as the last gun was fired, it burst, in
stantly killing one colored man named
John Frazier, literally tearing off the
top of his head.

WASHINGTON, Oct 11.-Secretary
Carlisle called on Attorney-General
Harmon yesterday and handed him
several kilograms received by him from
collectors of customs and others re-
garding the movement of alleged fill
clustering parties along the gulf coast.
The two cabinet officers discussed the
situation at some length. 1t was
agreed that no proper means should
be left untried to prevent the violation
of the neutrality laws
The fact that so far all attempts to
detain alleged filibustering expedi-
tions have been thrown out of United
States courts inclines the administra-
tion to be cautious and thus avoid the
possibility of suits for damages
1t is said that the Spanish agents
along the Florida coast, in their zeal
to secure information. seize upon ru-
mofs as facts and many of these al
Legged facts being forwarded to federal
officials have been ascertained upon
investigation to be unfounded and in

Ambassador to England Praised.
LONDON. Oct 1a-The Daily Telc-
graph, in an article commenting upon
phlet in which he makes an attack
upon United States Ambassador Bay
ard. says:
"a very foolish. ll-mannered, ill-
timed and ill-made pamphlet has been
issued by Lord Sackville with the pur-
pose of injuring the reputation of Mr..
Bayard. now the United States
Ambassador. charging him with being
a political trickster and consistent
and determined enemy of England.
The whole thing is so full of thought
less bitterness that it is not worth
while to reproduce any part of the
brochure. We only hope that the COM
mon sense and practical good judg-
ment of the English and American
public will treat this uncalled-for at
tack with contemptuous disdain.
Those concerned with diplomatic
history will be the first to
assure Mr.. Bayard that no effect what
ever is like to be produced by such a
series of charges, so utterly unworthy
of attention or consideration. During
his sojourn here, Mr.. Bayard has
earned golden opinions for his urban
ity and his keen judgment of affairs.
and above all has made studious eff
forts to cultivate amicable feeling be-
tween England and America. Through
MIN the English are learning fuller
appreciation of and a higher admira-
tion for the great republic"

LONDON, Oct. l2.-The Chronicle to-
day says it is expected when Ambassa-
dor Bayard returns to London that he
will decline to be drawn into a con-
troversy with Lord Sackville. The
feeling existing in reference to the
pamphlet is one of unqualified regret.
This finds its stronget expression in
diplomatic circles. where the incident
is a matter of general comment.

BosToN, Oct I.-Mrs. Sarah Coo
lidge, q widow. aged IS, who had for
years resided at e34 Massachusetts,
avenue. Cambridge, died Tuesday even
ing OF apoplexy. She had been consid-
cred eccentric, and was thought to be
comfortably well of. but not wealthy.
-Four female servants, the only per-
Sons she would allow permanently
around the house, were present when
she was stricken, and she died before
DIR. Chase, who had been summoned,
arrived at her home. Immediately
upon her death Alderman Cutter, who
had for years been acting as her agent
in her real estate transactions, was
summoned.
STARTLING DISCOVERIES.
When the body was prepared for
burial some startling discoveries were
made. Secreted about her person and in
pockets of other dresses, pieces of brio
a-brac. vases and closets, were found
many thousand dollars in gold coin
and bills of large denominations. In
fact, the money was placed In every
conceivable location, and in almost
every case where an ordinary person
would not secret wealth. Twenty
thousand dollars were thus found. and
in one case a package of bills amount
ing to S., 500 was found in handbag.
Then the searching party accidentally
stumbled upon a number of deposit
books in banks and savings institu-
tions. which showed that she had
many thousands of dollars on deposit
REAL ESTATE, TOO.
Later it became known that she was
the owner of a vast amount of real es-
tate, the major part of it located in
Boston. which returns a big income.
In addition to the money it was found
that she had a very extensive and cost
ly wardrobe. Elegant and valuable
dresses that had never been worn were
hung up in closets or laid on tables
and dressers, while other articles of
apparel equally costly were scattered
about in various rooms
The servants themselves, who had
lived in the house for years, were as.
founded. Even they did not know Of
the wealth which surrounded them.
They had frequently found bills. gold
coins and securities lying around the
rooms, and had always returned them
to Mrs Coolidge, who would tell them
that she had mislaid them, but they
were frequently found and as fre-
quently handed over to her.
WORTH OVER MILLION.
For over thirty years she had lived
alone in this house with the exception
of the servants, having about that
time secured a divorce from her hus-
band, James Coolidge. at one time
connected with the Mount Auburn
cemetery, who died many years ago.
She inherited some money from her
parents, and as it was judiciously in
vested, it grew until at her death it is
estimated that she was worth over
$1,000, 600. Her only living relative, SO
far as known, is brother, j. P. C.
Marshall, of 90 Beacon street, and if
she died intestate, all her property
will revert to him. It is claimed, how
ever, that many years ago she made a
will, but this is not known definitely.
