PALMA ELECTED.

York-A Brief Sketch of His
Career,


NEW YORK, July 10.-The latest
of the returns of the Cuban revolu-
tionary party elections all over the
United States on Sunday has been
received here, Memphis, Key West
and Philadelphia having finished
their reports. The first mentioned
city telegrapehed to Secretary
Gonzalo de Quesada and the last to
Treasurer Benjamin G. Terrera. In
each of them Tomas Estrada
Palma was the choice, as 1t was of
the five which reported on Mon

Palma had been elected to succeed
Jose Marti in the affairs Of the re.
volution outside of Cuba will be

tiers.
Tomas Estrada Palma was born
in Bayamo, Cuba, July 9, 1885.
After completing his studies in
Havana he went to Seville, Spain
to read law and then returned to
his native city to practice. He was
shortly after interested in the
cause of Cuban Independence and
soon rose to a commanding posi-
ton In the small but rapidly in.
creasing bands Of patriots who
were working to create the senti-
ment that crystalized in the revo-
luton of lS6S.7S. When the war
broke out Palma was one of the
first to take the field. He was elect.
ted member of the Cuban con-
gress later, and in the last years OF
the revolution he succeeded Cespe-
des In the presidency Of the Re.
public of Cuba. 1t was while hold

the campaign against the present
revolution was taken to Havana

rochester,, N. Y, July 10-A
special to the Herald from Penn
Yam, New York, says:
On Lake Ieuka this morning
Perry Tuft, his wife and three
children lost their lives by. the
capsizing Of small sail boat.
When Mr.. Tuft and his family
started they were advised not to go
as the lake was very rough. Not
needing the advice they started in
a boat with a "mutton leg" sail.
Their boat was found drifting with
a string dragging behind to which
a toy boat was attached that one
of the children had with it. The
string was tangled up around the
bodies of all three children. The
bodies of the father and mother
were recovered shortly after, the
mother having one Of her children
clasped in her arms. The children
were all under twelve years of age.

THAT BIG LIVERY FIRE.
Fears That Some Human Beings
Were Cremated With the

DETROIT, Mich, July l0.-There
are all sorts OF theories afioat as to
whether any of the inmates OF the
livery stable have been burned,
but according TO statements of
those who escaped, none OF their
comrades have been burned or suf-
located. This can be definitely de-
termined, however, only by
search Of the ruins. The tiremen
succeeded in combining the flames
to the Case building. Mr.. Case said
to an Associated Press reporter,
that there were about 20 horses in
the basement, 20 OF which
were got out. The ground floor of
the building is Of thick material,
and 1t is believed that many of the
horses under 1t will be found unin-
jured. Mr.. Case gives the total
value OF the property at 100000.
@. A. Graves, proprietor of the
Hotel Cadllace, states that he had
$4,000 worth of horses and equip
ages In the burned structure.
Search for possible human victims
will be begun as soon as possible.
