CUBAN FILTBUsTERs.
The Government Still Apprehensive OF
Trouble With Thorn.

WASHINGTON, Ocs. 26.-The State De-.
partment officials are still apprehensive
OF trouble with Cuban 6libusters and
are determined that nothing shall be
left undone to prevent any hostile ex-
petition being fitted out in this country.
This was shown in letter received to-
day at the revenue cutter office. The
State Department had been requested
to give It's consent TO the withdrawal of
the revenue cutter feet from the Florida
coast In order that the vessels might be
assigned to their regular winter DUTY
along the coast farther North.
The reply from the State Department
was prompt and decisive in tho mega.
tive The services performed by tho
revenue cut,ers during the winter
months in aiding vessels in distress is
very important. Assistance is rendered
many vessels and many lives are saved
each winter by the timely aid of these
vessels which cruise along the coast in
search of disabled vessels. The neces-
sity, therefore, which keeps them from
this duty must be regarded as very
great. 1t is not known whether they
will DO relieved from their present duty
during the entire winter.

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 2e The British
ship Aberfoyle. Captain Wallace, has

He was totally unfit for handling the
vessel, and, shutting himself up in his
cabin, he resigned The command TEN
porarily to First Officer Percy Norton.
In severe storm Mate Norton was
washed overheard, and tho Aberfoyle
was left 30 the mercy OF the elements,
without pilot to steer her through
her peril. The man at the wheel knew
enough to keep the vessels head to
the sea, but more than once the crow
despaired of their lives as wave after
wave broke over the bow and side
The captain still kept up his spree and
finally become 80 violent that the crew
placed him under restraint. He was
made prisoner in the cabin, where he
swallowed the contents of bottle of
carbolic acid, and in few minutes fell
dead. The body Of the captain was
buried ON the following day. and the
boatswain assumed command of the
ship. But the vessel might as we'll have
heen without compass, there being DO
ono left who understood navigation.
For weeks the ahip drif1ed aimlessly
about in the ocean, the. men being with

THE DURRANT TRIAL.
Tho Case VIII be Given to the Jury Next
ThuEsdaY or FridaY

Thursday or Friday.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 90 Tho trial OF
Dlrrant is nearing it's close and the case
will be probably given to the Jury next
Thursday or Friday. Attorney DickIn-
son, attorney for the defense, has said
be will conclude on Tuesday morning,
to which day the court has been con-
tiiued, and Attorney Duprey. also for
the defense, will probably finish for
Durrant on Tuesday afternoon.
District Attorney Barnes expects to
begin his argument on Wednesday
morning and to complete his closing
address the same day.
Judge Murphy's charge will be long
and exhaustive and Its delivery NAV
take day. The exhibits are numerous
and In the case of some will require
much study on tho part of the jury.
This is particularly true of the com
parlson Of the notes OF Durrant and
these made by Student Glazsr, with
whom Durrant quizzed.
II is understood that the district at
torney will parallel the two sets of notes
and ar ne that Durrants could not be
mora like Glszsr's without having been
copied verbatim. The district attorney
will, it is said, also attack thu roll-call
and will call attention to the error in
making Student Gavin as present, when
he was in fact absent.
The jury will be asked to Judge for
itself as to the alleged similarity be :
tween the handwriting OF Rev. j.
George Gibson and that on the package
enclosing Blanche Lsmont's rings.

IN DEFENSE OF THEIR RACE
colored Delegates Talk in the
South Carolina Convention.
w. Whipper Claims That Designing
white Mon Misrepresented the Negro es
In That state-They WIN Garry the
Fight to the Courts. and to the Peo-
PIC IL Necessary.

\CoLUMBIA, S. G., Oct. 26.-In the con-
suSudonal convention to-day, w. J.
WhiRper, colored delegate from Beau.
fort, addressed the convention for two
hours. He was prominent in the DAYS
of negro\ domination in the STATE and
having ann intimate acquaintance with
the men who governed the State then,
his remarks \possessed more interest
than they otheNwise would.
He admitted D the outset that the
negro was now thu inferior OF the white
man owing to his Mack of educational
advantages and the J act that he had
been freq only thirty SNears. He denied
that there ever had beeN negro rule in
the State. True they hal q majority in
the convention OF 1868 andN subsequent
legislatures, but they were bNQt the tools
OF designing white men wh6N directed
them as they pleased. Even when they
could have elected every officsAr from
constable to governor. the white miSan al.
ways had the most offices and no NEGRO
was ever governor, or a Judge Sor
sheriff or any other high official
he claimed that in his town OF Beata-
iort' where the negro had majority ole
twenty to one in tho population, they
always elected white mayor and gave
the whites half the council. These
things showed. he claimed, the bugaboo
OF negro domination and the dsstruo.
ton of white supremacy were but
subierfuges gotten up by d designing men
who wished to profit politically thereby.
He held that the devotion of the
negro to his masters family and inter-
ests while he was away fighting battles
to forge more 6tmly the shackles about
his slaves. made the white people owe
him deep debt OF gratitude, which
would be ill-repald by the taking away
from him his rights He said the negroes
intended to sap the foundation OF the
convention itself in the supreme court
OF the United States, and if that failed
to appeal to Congress-, and II that failed
to trust to the people of the country TO
compel the State to give them their
rights.
He was followed by Robert Smslls,
also colored, who commended that the
negro was here to stay and thst 1t was
to the interest Of the white man to sea
that he got ell Of HIS rights. Debate
was then adjourned over until Monday.

FRANCE AND MADAaAsoAR,
Ex-Oonsul Waller Will Probably Prefer

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.-The Asso-
ciated Press dispatch, giving the
particulars OF the treaty between France

tails of the convention to the State De.
partment which had been received
there. The officials expressed much in
terest In the question, but declined to be
quoted in the absence OF the full text.
1t may be given, however, as the
general opinion In the department. that
according to the agreement 80 far as
given, the French have succeeded in
making their own terms with MAZDA
gascar and that the protectorate, for
which 1t provides, really amounts to
making Madagascar dependency of
the French republic.
1t Ia not believed, under the circum-
stances, that II Waller should be re-
stored to the possession OF his grant
he would find It's occupancy either

on this account that he would prefer

BRITISH GUIANA AS>rnoR1r1Es.
The Homo Government is Not Pleased at
Their Recent ActiMn


Their Recent Acti&n.
WASHINGTON, Oct. &c The action OF
ene British Guiana authorities in re-
Jecupg, by vote of ten to ei&hs, the
policy urged by British Minister Cham
pertain, for arming the Vene Alelan
frontier with Maxim guns, as eMclu-
sively told in the Associated Press Mis-
patches, excites much interest in officiAal
and diplomatic circles. It Is said to b
most unusual course for the colonial L
government to rejecs the advice Of the
nome governments on questions of im..
porta2t public policy.
IL appears, also. that following the
adverse action in British Guiana, the
London foreign office cabled directions
to Sir Charles Lees, governor gen eral of
the colony, to return to London. II is
stated here that this was equi Talent to
q recall, and the belief Is expressed that
1T indicates the disapproval Of the Lon.
oon authorities in the ability OF the
governor general to carry out the policy
laid down by Minister Chamberlain.
Tho position OF governor general is
one OF such dignity that it IL not uu-
usual to summon him to London merely
lot consultation, although this hap
pened when the Venezuelan question
reached critical stage in 1914 Among
pooAsioH W oe DeSs informed
the belief Is quite positive that Sir
Charles has been recalled, and that
the action OF the Guiana council is the
direct cause Of It, The governor gen.
eral is now on his way from Demerara
to London.
The British ultimstum has not vet
reached Caracas, The understanding here
Ia that 1t was forwarded from London to
Berlio, and thence by steamer from
III amourg to Laguayra. The trip would
take two or three weeks, 30 that it's re-
ceipt In Venezuela is anticipated within
the next few days. Monday next is the
"Fere OF Bolivar" the national holiday
OF Venezuela, and it Is believed that
PRESIDENT Crespo will take occasion on
that day to name the members of his
new caoinet, including the minister OF
