Publication of Lees Alleged Report Causes
o Sensation There.
NEW YORK, June pa dispatch to
The World from Madrid says: The
prOfOundest sensation has been caused
here by the news Of the alleged purport
of a report by United States Consul
General Lee to President Cleveland OF
the state of affairs in Cuba, which re-
port is said to be Oh the way from Ha-
vana to Washington.
The effect of the intelligence is diff
cult to exaggerate. All classes of the
community are greatly wrought up, but
the connection is especially great in
parliamentary and political circles.
The Hobbies of the senate were extreme
~ animated just before Senator. Comas
began an
Energetic Anti-American Speech
on moving an amendment to the ad-
dress in reply to the speech from the
throne asking the government to annul
all treaties between Spain and the
United States. The impression is gen.
eral among politicians and military
men that the government will be re-
quested to withdraw Consul General
Lees exequatur if he really has ex-
pressed opinions as unfavorable to
Spanish rule in Cuba as rumOr credits
him with having done.

"REMINISCENCES.

William Howe came from Cleveland,
O. to Alma in February 1858, and at once
began clerking for Gargett q Gee. He
was unmarried and boarded with
Flavius Ely on the south side Of the
river, in a house which stood where Mr.
Hawley's residence, ON the Rockingham
farm, now stands. Believing with the
inspired writer, that it was not good for
man to live alone, i'll May of the same
year he went to Pewamo and was mar
ried. Returning with his bride, they
boarded for some time with Mr.. Ely
family. Soon after his marriage he
located so acres of state swamp land ON
section 10, one mile south of town. He
built home there and lived there until
in the fall of 1860, when he went to
New York state, and continued TO reside
there until February, 1866, when he re-
turned to Alma.
During the six years of his absence,
the little town had grown in population
and business interests. One of the
principal buildings erected was the
hotel and store built by Gargett q
Hubert, on the site where j. w.
Holmes implement store is now located.
In the spring of 1861, Mr. Howe helped
built the dam across Pine river, under
supervision of Jacob Miller, Gargett' S
head miller
In July, 1857, Mr.. Howe was drawn
as juror for the first term of court held
in this county Court was held III the
school house, which stood where the
| Wright House now stands, Judge
| Woodruff presiding. There were but
two cases on the calendar, one a civil
case, and the other was against a man
| (whose name Mr. Howe has forgotten)
for selling liquor to an Indian. The
man was convicted Billy Rogers
was also juror i'll this case. This was
about the time of the county seat war
and the next session of the court wa'
held i'll Ithaca.
Marrying and given in marriage pre-
vailed in these early days. Mr.. Howe
tells Of two marriages: That Of Lewis
r. Baker and Hester a. Hart now Mrs
Travis of this village) and George Ge'
and Rachel Kress. The ceremonie
were performed at the residence of ID
Ely, a log house standing betweel
Tinker q Hannah mill and the dam
by Rev. Stappee, one III the forenoon
and one in the afternoon.

The Storm.

Alma was visited by a terribly des-
tructive wind-storm last Sunday. From
early morning until late at night the
wind blew gale, and the air was sc
filled with sand as to make it seem like
a Simeon from the desert. Many fine
shade trees We're blown down, and
others badly broken; the large smoke
tower at the Sanitarium was badly
cracked, and along Superior street q
number of windows were broken.
In the country the damage to fruit
trees and growing crops is very great
Apple, cherry and pear trees look as il
a fire had swept over and burned every
leaf, and the same is true of wheat, oats
rye and corn, III many localities.

UGLY RUMORS AFLoAT.

UGLY RUMORS AFLOAT.
The town of Riverdale, 10 miles west
of here. is the scene of a scandal of no
small proportions, in which are involved
many persons, chief of whom is DR.. j.
A. Morey. Suspicion has pointed to
him for a long time us one engaged IN
shady practices, and the matter was
finally placed in the hands of Detective
Whitesell OF this place, with instruc-
tions to ferret the matter out This Mr..
Whitesell has done, and from him we
learn that for long time Morey has
had houses in and near Riverdale, which
he has used as lying-in hospitals, and Ill
which at different times have been CON
fined number of unfortunate young
girls, the length of whose stay has var
led from two weeks to as many months.
Affidavits have been obtained from
some Of these girls, and are now in
possession of the officers, in which are
given details of their relations with
Morey, which are unfit for publication.
| Morey left Riverdale suddenly on the
night of May 10. 1t is known that he
left his horse with a man residing be-
tween Elm Hall and Mcbride and that
is the last known of Morey. The man
with whom Morey left his horse brought
| it to Riverdale, but returned with it to
| his home. From all that we have been
able to learn this man is the go-betwecn
for Morey and his friends.

morphine with suicidal intent. a few

One of Pullman's would-be

had been playing the part of a

crossed the street to watch the out
come Of their operations, and were
leaning against the railing along
the walk where it crossed the pond
aforementioned. The railing gave
way under the pressure, and the
baptism in mud resulted. The
