NOBODY BUT PLATT.
HAD Things Pretty Much His own
Way in the Primaries.

NEW YORK, March 16.-Republican
primaries were held in each of the
1882 election districts of this city to-
night, and the results show victories
for Thomas G. Platt in most Of the
districts. The primaries were held for
the purpose of electing delegates to
assembly district conventions which
will elect delegates to the state con-
Vention and congressional district
convention, where the delegates to the
national convention will be chosen.
The indications are that William
Brookfield and Gen. G. McCook will
be sent to st. Louis as delegates from
the Fifteenth congressional district.
They both assert that they are for
Morton for president, but have a strong
leaning for Mckinley. In the Twenty
ninth district the delegates are for
Morton on first choice, but are di-
Vided between Mckinley and Reed for
second choice. T. G. Campbell claimed
he would be chosen as a delegate to
st. Louis from the Fourteenth con-
gressional district, but the followers
of Congressman Quigg and Abe Cru
Der said there was no doubt but these
would be chosen.

REDWOOD FALLS, Mimi, March
1.-THE Delhi Roller mills, located ON
the west side of the Redwood river
within the city limits, and valued at
$4,000, were totally destroyed by fire
shortly after IL o'clock tonight. The
alarm was first turned in about 1O:45.
AT that time the fire had already made
rapid headway, and when the fire de-
partment arrived on the ground, fifteen
minutes later the building was COM
pIeteiy enveloped in flames. The sea-
soned timber was excellent fuel. and
half an hour after the alarm the build
ing and fixtures We're leveled TO the

all insurance on the mill was Cancelled

burning tonight left the creditors

undoubtedly, as it originated in a place
Where there was no fire or friction.

able to take 1t.
No" said Mr.. Morgan, Gomez and
Maceo have come nearer taking, Ha-
vana than the Spanish have to taking
the insurgent capital"
Mr.. Morgan referred to the grim
tragedy beneath the theatrical effect"
mentioned by the minister. When the
senator read the minister's criticism on
the insurgent methods of burning cane
fields, he added that 1t was a recog-
nlzed right Of war to destroy and burn
property in order to cripple the enemy.
1t was done on both sides during
our civil war;" interjected Mr.. Sher-
man.
Mr.. Morgan proceeded to read from
the Spanish minister's statement and
commented on it as he went along.
The statement said the insurgents had
no liked place of organization, being
driven from place to place. The sem
ator asked what permanent place
our continental congress held during
the revolution. 1t was driven about
and when the British burned Washing
ton, IN 1914, the members of our con-
gress We're refugees in Virginia, and
yet the Spanish minister raised the
point that struggling people must have
a permanent capital. AS a matter of
fact the senator insisted, the insurgents
nad a capital, as was shown by reports
from newspaper correspondents
Mr. Hale interrupted to ask if Mr..
Morgan really credited the correspon-
dent who claimed to have located the
nebulous insurgent capital.
L supposed" responded Mr.. Morgan
warmly, that I was to address the
senate, but I find I am here as a sort
OF school child in a kindergarten, to
submit to the questioning of the SEN
ator from Maine"
1T is not my fault" proceeded Mr..
Hale, that the senator is put in the
position OF a school child in a kinder
garten.''
After completing the Spanish min
lsters statement, Mr.. Morgan pointed
out that Mr.. Hale's speech, in defense
or Spain, was based on statement of
premier Castillo, which statement Mr..
morgan alleged had now been repudi-
ated by the Spanish premier. The SEN
ator added that it was clear Mr.. Hale
had no sympathy for these Cuban ne
groes, and doubtless he would not care
10 see the negroes of the United States
free If they did not vote the Republican
tlcket. AT this point Mr. Morgan Weld
ed, not having completed his remarks
and at 4:S0 the senate adjourned.

DE LOME,S STATEMENT.
Communication Which Has Caused
So Much Comment Made Public.

WASHINGTON, March 16.-The statement
of the Spanish side of the Cuban case as made
by Senior Dupuy de LONE the Spanish min
lister, to which considerable reference has been
made in the debate on Cuba, was today read
in the senate by Senator Morgan. Senior
de LONE, after explaining why it is that the
Spaniards have been unable to conquer the
insurgents, and why they were not able to
prevent the raid on Havana, states that peace
can only be attained by the constant persecu-
tion of the bands by preventing them from
establishing themselves in any part of the
country.
Minister de Lone calls attention to the fact
that the insurgents have no seat of govern
ment, and says their constitution was adopted
only for the purpose of getting it printed in
the New York papers. He says the movements
of the troops are largely directed by the New
York junta, composed largely of citizens of
the United States
In conclusion, the minister says "It is the
opinion of everybody that the main body of
insurgents, which is in a critical condition
will soon be dealt with, but that If an increase
OF the Spanish army in Cuba is necessary it
can be easily supplied from Spain.''

and the walls of the canal We're Sc

The flying squadron, which was the
