The Spanish General Says He
Has MaceO Fast in q
Trap.
Predicts He Will Escape From
Cuba by Water, Leaving
His Troops.
He Also Explains Why He Does
Not Capture Maceo Right "
Away.

New YORK, April pa dispatch
to The World from Havana says Gen.
eral Weyler is stalking all ON the present
military movement. He is opposing
the guerilla warfare by an almost geo.
metric plan. In an interview, the gen.
eral said:
"Maceo will never cross the trocha,
except as a prisoner. The day he at
tacks the trocha he will fall or be cap
tured. 1t is utterly impossible for him
to come westward. have a strong
force OH the whole line, and also have u
large party of troops between Maceo's
position in the northern mountains and
the trocha.'
But Maceo is on the east side of the
barrier. Suppose the two brothers
should attack the line from different
sides at different points on the same
day 2"
"Ah," replied General Weyler, II
have a strong force on this side which
keeps Jose Maceo's men divided into
small bands and they cannot unite for
such a maneuvre."
why do you not attempt to force
Maceo to a decisive battle now?'
"Maceo will not stand and fight
the general answered. II have several
independent columns which keep him
moving about in the hills
But cannot you surround him? He
ia apparently confined to a small dis.

"Well,' explained General Weyler,

says MaceO Will Escape by Water.
When do you look for an attempt to
force your line?"
Never" said General Weyler. my
opinion is that Maceo knows he is in a
trap at last and he will abandon his
troops and escape from Cuba by water
You say the war will be brought &c
an end soon. How soon do you expec,
it to end%'

Yes, but not now. There must b

Flandrau Enterprise, %: The Indian
schools at this place are without ques-
ton the most advanced of such institu-
tions outside Of probably Hampton and
Carlisle. Under the able management
of Prof l.. ID. Davis it is rapidly improv-
ing and the pupils are making marked
progress. 1t might be a matter of inter.
est to our readers to learn what is being
accomplished there in a gwen time.
During the three months ending March
first, in the tailor shop there were 70
coats made, 46 pair Of pants, n three
vests, in the sewing room, lob aprons, GO

1t now begins to look as If the general
conference OF the VI. F.. church which
meets at Cleveland, OHIO, in May, will
vote against the admission of women as
delegates. The church law requires a
three fourths vote to change the consti-
tuition. = few days ago the women were
within 40 votes OF victory. Three con-
ferences we're hen to be heard from.
Two OF them, East Maine and North
Dakota, have since voted, and the
women lack 741a votes Of the required
number, 1t is not believed that Troy
conference, which is still to decide, will
give the required number, and it is
thought the women are beaten. Several
women have been elected as delegates to
the conference and the issue will come
up squarely as to their admission. aside,
perhaps, from the effect OF the consti
tuition al vote.

The following decision Of the court of
appeals Of Missouri at st. Louis on the
21st will be of wide interest in the order
which the decision affects and also in
kindred orders: The court OF appeals
has affirmed the case OF Mrs. Emilia
Zepp a judgement Of $4,000 and interest
on a benefit certificate taken out by her
husband, the late Philip NJ. Zepp, for
many years circuit clerk. The defense
was that Zepp, contrary to the terms of
his application for insurance, bought an
interest in a saloon after he joined the
order. This opinion will doubtless have
"a bearing Upon numerous cases through.
out the state, in which liquor dealers
who are members OF the A. O. U. w

now suing to recover dues they

WE OWE 1T To THEM.
Our Municipal Election Coming on
Apace-We Should Turn Ont and
Elect our Ticket

We are flying at our mash head
the Democratic municipal ticket,
and while we apprehend no danger
of its defeat at the fast approaching
election still We should be on guard,
and 90 to the polls and help get
Others there to say by their vote,
that they endorse the ticket as
nominated by the party in the
primary.
There are two men running IN
this election, independent of party
lines, what their politics may be,
we know not, neither do we ask.
They may be Democrats, Populists,
or Republicans, and may be good
men for the places they offer, but
they have placed themselves out of
the pale of party lines, showing
plainly they do not want party
votes. or that they would trust
their chances in the hands of Dem)-
cratic voters.
Independent candidates are fit for
nothing upon Gods green earth but
to disorganize the party, to which
they pretend to belong, yet afraid
90 before the party for fear of
defeat.
They reason that they can draw
votes from the Democratic party,
and as a matter of course the
reason that Republicans will vote
for them, because they are anto
gonizing Democracy, and by this
means they hope to get place, and
then they will strut around and
think it was their popularity that
caused them to be elected.
We want to see the Democrats
turn out on the day of election
and learn the two independents
that are now posing as being too
good and pure for party Affiliations,
lesson in politics, they have never
dreamed Of before.
We have a splendid ticket in the
field, there is not a shabby man
on it, and We should see that the
ticket is elected from beginning to
