NEW YORK. Aug. l6-The mayor of
Havana. Cuba, Senior Segunio Alvarez,
who is ut the Union Spare hotel, says that
the instruction in Cuba is not serious

1T is rising of outlaws, led by foreign,
ers. The better class of Cubans have
nothing to do with it, They are what
you call blackmailers or bandits. There
are adventurous like Roliff, a Polish Jew,
and not Cuban at all, who go to the
cigar makers of Key West and other
places and obtain their money and go
away.
Americans, however, not only permit
foreigners but allow their own citizens
to conspire against Spanish territory, and
Spain is a friendly nation. Are meet.

me tell you this: The American flag is
being used to cover every crime. Spanish
officers are getting tired of letting expo

CHICAGO, Aug. 16-The laws of the
state Of Illinois forbid poolselling and
betting on horse races withing the limits
Of the state. The Northwestern Trotting
Horse Breeders association is one of the
strongest combinations Of owners and
breeders OF trotting stock in the country.
1t has held meetings at which pools were
sold for n number Of years at Washington
park, this city, with marked success
This year, in order to finally and def.
nitely put the question of its abilsty to
hold a successful series OF races without
the usual pool-selling adjuncts to test, it
has arranged an especially attractive pro.
grammo in the hope that the increased
attendance will make up tho amount
usually received for betting privileges.
The chief event of the meeting will be a
match between tho celebrated pacing
kings, John r. Gentry and Joe Patchen,
for purse Of 5000. The race is set for
Thursday. Aug. -, and will be, tho man.
ayers claim, the greatest harness event

entitled him to assert that Unionism was
receding in Ireland. Therefore he moved
an amendment declaring the necessity Of
immediate legislation on the land ques-
ton in Ireland, In accordance with the
recommendations Of last years commit.
tee.
Gerald Balfour. chief secretary for Ire
land, recognized Mr.. Redmond's moder-
etc tone, but reminded him OF the great
difference between the state Of things
now and in 1856 His reports showed
that the harvests were good in
every district in Ireland, and that there
was no heavy fall in prices in the last
two years. Therefore the land question
was not urgent. He had only been in
office for a month and could not be ex-
pected to give an exhaustive answer to
all questions; but as to the homo rule at
titUde OF TIE government it would con-
tinue TO DO one of unchanging and inhex-
iole opposition. conservative cheers
He was not going to discuss the result
of the election. The land question could
only be dealt with by an entirely non-con.
tentious bill, and it would suffice if the
bill were introduced next spring. The
secretary had always maintained that the
transfer Of land to the tenant was the only
effective solution of the question. Before
proceeding with the policy Of purchase
the government would wait until tho
Ed QUO, 900 was spent. 1t was unfair to
ask the government 20 declare in favor of
compulsory purchase. The government
would hold the scales evenly between the
various sections OF the Irish people.
Timothy Harrington promised to give
tho government fair trial
In the lords the Irish question was also
discussed, Salisbury saying: II will not
describe our intentions in regard to the
constitution of this house or in respect to
the adoption of home rule When we in.
trodnce bills touching these matters it
will be time enough to discuss them"
The lords adopted the address in reply to
the queens speech.

LoSDoE Aug IS Timothy Harring-
ton. in the course of some remarks in the
commons. declared that the Liberal party
had fed from homo rule, whereupon DR..
Tanner, who had created n scene in tbs
house earlier in the day, shouted out:
"a lie"
Loud and indignant cries of "Order"
were heard from both sides of the house.
DR.. Tanner declining to withdraw the
expression the speaker named him.
Chamberlain, secretary of state for col.
onies, moved that Tanner be suspended.
A division was called for but Tanner
failed to find teller, and the speaker de-
clarcd the motion carried. Tanner was
thereupon requested to withdraw, but he
arose and addressed the speaker amidst
loud cries for order. Tho sergeant.at-
arms walked up the floor of the house to
where Tanner stood. Tanner then Quilted
the house, accompanied by the sergeant
alarms, shouting all the way Judas"
Tanners first scene was over a motion
of Sir Richard Webster that a certified

elected to parliament from Limerick al.

the governor of Portland prison present a
certificate to the effect that DAILY is still a
prisoner in that prison. The motion was
adopted in spite of Tanners protest.
Sir William Earcourt remarked that
the late government unfortunately was
unable to settle the great question in con.
nection with Ireland. That country. he
added, was never more peaceful thar,
now, and was the government wise in ad
journing for six months without ex-
pressing its intentions in the matters Bal.

pressing anxiety to bring forward Irish
legislation before next session. It must

Redmond moved an amendment to the
address, inviting the government to de.
clare that there would be no delay in the
Irish policy. Five-sixths Of the electors
Of Ireland had declared in favor of home
rule, and he protested that the verdiceupt
the election was not against home rule.
He warned the government that Ireland
could not be satisfactorily governed from
Westminster and that the only remedy
for her ills was national self-government.
Regarding the land legislation he admit.
ted that the only remedy was compul-
sorry purchase By the tenant
John Dillon said he feared that the
ominous silence Of the government would
undo the life work OF ParneIl, who
brought the Irish people TO believe that
