A "REMINISCENCES OF CARA.

Whether or not the crimes committed by
participants in the unsuccessful CARA
revolution in Mexico in 1892 were DO
litical in their nature, and were not mere
ly common murder, arson, etc, is a ques,
ton that the supreme court of the United
States will be asked next Monday to an
swer before it finally adiOurns for the
term on the following MOnday-June 3.
The case comes on appeal from the judg-
ment of Judge MaXey of the United States
circuit court for the Western district of
Texas.
In December 1892. Juan Duque, Inez
Ring and Jesus Guerra, who were charged
with murder, arson. robbery and kidnep-
ping, fled from Mexico to Texas. The
Mexican consul at San Antonio, PlutarcO
Ornelas, succeeded last year in having
the three men arrested. Proceedings for
tNtraditiOn were instituted before Judge
MaXey in the circuit court for the Western
district of Texas. Judge MaXey decided
the offenses charged were political rather
than criminal, and held that under the
sixth section of the eXtradtion treaty the
proceedings would not hold. Upon an ap.
peal being taken Ivy the Mexican cousul
the men We're required to give bonds, and
the case is brought before the supreme
court upon Ornelas' appeal. The court de
cided to hear the case next week, and may
dispose of it before the close of this term
of court.

Washington, d. c., May %, 1895.
The report received here today from
Houston to the effect that General Soho
field has developed into presidential can
ddate on the Democratic ticket has
aroused considerable interest. 1t is sug-
gested by some that General Schofeld is
today the strongest military man in the
country with the grand army clement and
is free from entanglements with the tariff
and the money question. it is also in
timatcd that he may be able to command
the support of President Cleveland.
By others it is claimed that Speaker
Crisp had General SchOtield in mind when
he referred to Il Western man with war
record and that with the generals name
it is hoped to catch the soldier vote for
the free silver ticket.

FOR REVENUE RELIEF.

In looking around for means to relieve
the treasury now that The supreme court
has knocked them out of fully 100000. OOO
by the income tax decision the officials
of that department seem to be of one
opinion that the needed money will have
to be raised by increasing the beer tax.
Something will have to be done and as il
would be practically out of tine question
and foolish to reopen the tariff rates, con-
gress will have to fall back upon the in
ternal revenue. While beer seems to
be the first choice for the increased tax
it is also suggested that the revenue on
whisky and tobacco be raised somewhat
and as a last resort tea and coffee. 1t is
conteAded that beer is the most suitable
commodity to be touched for various rea-
sons. In the first place the extra tax can
be collected with the present revenue
force and in the second place it will not
increase the retail price of the beverage.
The present beer tax is 81 per barrel
and the idea is to double that amount.
According to the commissioners returns
for the past 10 months the receipts from
the same period on whisky $50 100000.
and tobacco and cigars S49.000,00O The
revenue officers make the claim that the
present profit on beer is so great that
the tax can be increased 81 without
changing the price to the consumer. They
say that at present the saloon keeper can
buy his beer for SO per barrel As the
barrel averages 400 of the 5-cent glasses
it will therefore be seen that his profit on
each barrel is Sill

Birmingham, Ala, May 2S.-Judse
Sharp today on complaint of Annie Dowell
a stockholder, enjoined the tansfer of the
poperty of the Elyton Land company to

of the last legislature in carrying out the
reorganization plan, 100000 of the
bonds of the new company, were issued
to protect the obligations of the old COM
pany. These bonds are now held by
the Maryland Trust company. If the de-

cemetery of the government hospital for

NAVAL NOTES.

Ever since the Victoria disaster naval
officers have been giving much attention
to the subject of bulkhead doors. 1t is
now conceded that the unfortunate Brit
ish battleship filled and capsiZed by
reason of failure to secure speedy clos
ure of the doors in the bulkhead, which
are intended to prevent the water from
a compartment that may be crushed in
from flooding the others, and so sinking
the ship. 1t is now provided by the
regulations that as soon as distinctive
signal-usually by a steam siren-is given
by the officer of the deck, the doors shall
be closed by persons previously assigned
to this duty.
At nearly all the tests at Indian Head
and other places where experiments are
conducted upon armor, shells and guns
officers of foreign armies and navies have
been admitted. Objection has been made
to this by both branches of the service
on the ground that the United States
is spending many millions in making war
materials and that foreign governments
have been enabled to procure information
concerning these materials without ex-
.pense. 1t has also been pointed out
that foreign governments are in the habit
of guarding very jealousy their own ex-
periments of this kind, SO as to prevent
other nations from profiting at their ex-
pense. Assistant Secretary McAdoo has
been obliged to deny the applications to
witness the tests.
