New Orleans, December 2S.-The

who went over to the Republicans last
year, met today and decided with but one
opposing vote to go into the coming State

to the Democratic ticket named in the
late Shreveport Convention, headed by

those opposed to the Democratic to join
in the movement. The Executive Com

today 1T was discovered that Il. A. Cage,

committee standing nine to five in favor
of the man from Maine.
Various efforts were made by the Nc.
Kinley faction to secure delay, in the
hopes that they might be able to devise
some way out of the difficulty, but they
were routed, and the chairman, Cage
was authorized to appoint committee of
five, which will decide who are the dele

He appointed y mmittee of his per-

THIS WINTER TO BE DECISIVE.
Views of Lord Churchill on the Dis

Views of Lord Churchill on the Dis
-turbance In Cuba.
A dispatch from Tampa, Fla. sent last
night, says:
Lord Winston Leonard Churchill. son Of
the late Lord Randolph Churchill. a lieu
tenant in the British army. who has been
with Gen. Valdez, in command in Santa
Clara is in the city. In an interview today
he said:
Il think the situation in Cuba Is serious.
The winter campaign Is intended to be de-
cisive. Should the Spanish forces succeed
in ejecting the revolutionists from the pro-
vinces of Matanzas and Santa Clara this
winter. the fight will be prolonged indefi-
Eitely as in the last revolution. If the
struggle Is prolonged the insurgents will
gain in numbers on account of the general
discomfort that will exist, and the govern
ment, owing to the enormous expense in
voved will have to decrease its army and
hold only the principal points, while the
country and the smaller places will be given
to the Insurgents. In that case the country
will soon be in a wretched condition. and
TIT people will bring much pressure to
bear upon the insurgents to terminate the
struggle while the United States, in behalf
of her citizens interests. will similarly
press Spain, and the result will be that
Cuba will gain complete autonomy and
Spain will not lose her colony. Should the
insurgents maintain their position this win
ter in the provinces, then the result is
nearer and more promising to them. The
Spaniards do not quite grasp their way of
fighting. and the Cutans, who thoroughly
understand the woods, have the advantage.
Outside of England. do not believe there Is
al other country which could successfully
suppress that revolution. There are $4,000
troops now being run into Cuba, and unless
those in command have arranged a very
brilliant coup, / cannot see where these ad-
ditional troops will help the situation
much"

THE VENEZUELAN REVOLUTION.
News That 1t Has Been Quelled and
Tint All IL Quiet.

The Venezuelan minister here has received
cablegram from Caracas, stating that the
revolution has been quelled and that perfect
peace prevails throughout the republic of
Venezuela. No word has come here touch
ing the receipt at Caracas of the British de-
mand for an indemnity of 100000 on &C
count of the arrest at Uruan by the Vene-
zuelans of a colonial chief of police al
though President Crespo Is known to have
returned to Caracas on the 18th Of Novem-
Der from his vacation. 1t Is presumed here
that. If this demand is made. the Venezuelan
government will inform the United States
government Of the fact, and urge that this
also may be properly regarded as a matter
for arbitration. Although on it's face bear
Ing resemblance to the Corinto incident,
where the United States admitted the right
of the British government to claim an in
demnity for an insult offered to British
officer. 1t is commended that the same doc
trine cannot be applied in the Uruan case
for an admission by Venezuela that the
British officer was wrongfuny arrested
would amount to confession that the place
of seizure, far west Of the Schomb burg line,
was British territory. and therein lies the
whole Of the present controversy between
Great Britain and Venezuela, which the
United States has been endeavoring to bring
to peaceful and just settlement by arbi-
tration.

This fact. and the injury that it is to the
health Of the occupants Of the Capitol

The whole object OF the Investigation and

report. our citizens acquire the disease at
summer resorts they ought to be informed
which they are not to irture the resorts,

Moreover, the publication of such facts
will do more than all else to induce the
proprietors or authorities of the summer
resorts to adopt better sanitary arrange
