SPANIARDS ARE SILLY.
HAVE a FIRM BELIEF THEY
COULD WHIP US.
Maceo Was Decoyed, Ambushed and
Shot-Of That There Can Now Be
Little Doubt-Were Forty In His
Party.

New York, Dec. 21.-"I am able to
say on what 1 consider the best of au-
thority that General Maceo was muir
dered, and not killed in honorable war
fare" said Captain Burley of the
steamship CITY of Washington, which
arrived in this port from Havana to-
day. He said he obtained the infor-
nation from a man of ulauestioned
honor and veracity.
Il have il from most reliable
source" said Captain Burley to a re-
porter today, that Maceo was am
pushed and assassinated. l got my in
formation through a third party, from
no less a source than the telegraph
operator at the palace. Maceo was
killed at O'Clock in the afternoon on
the Sth. He was decoyed under the
bluffs and shot.
Major Cirujeda had $50 men in read
mess at Punta Bravo. The letter found
on GomeZ'S son was a baSor-forgery,
for the purpose of misleading senti-
ment. There were just 40 in the Cuban
party with Maceo. 1t is whispered
that two escaped and that one of these
is with Juan Riviera, in the Rosario
hills. The others were killed.
1T is from these two that the truth
has come. a Spanish officer told me
confidentially that Maceo >>yas am
pushed. II was expected that many
deserters would follow the news of his
death. Instead the Cubans have be-
come doubly determined and have
gained in numbers. The feeling in
Havana is intensely anti-American
among the Spanish. The same Spanish
officer told me frankly that they could
ard would clean us up at the first
chance.
Relations are strained in business
circles. The wealthy classes are leav-
ing. or have left for Progreso or Vera
Cruz, Mex.
The Spanish in Havana honestly
think they can best US in a war. The
truth is that most of the people in Ha-
vana would welcome a war with the
United States as the quickest solution
of the present difficulties. It is a mix
ture of bombast. commercial shrewd-
ness and despair

WHAT THEY DON'T KNOW,
EMINENT ATTORNEYS ON THE
OPINION OF oLNEY.
Coudert Thinks Olney All Right
Hornblower, Peckham and Others
Saw Wood, and Say Little.

New York, Dec. 21.-Generally speak
ing, those members of the league pro-
fession in this city who are best quail
fed to pass an opinion upon the sec
rotary of states Interpretation of the
constitutional powers possessed by the
president in regard TO the recognition
of Cuba's independence. are disinclined
to comment upon the stand taken by
Mr.. Olney. Most of those who were
seen yesterday excused themselves
from any direct statement, on the
ground that they had not studied Mr..
Olney's contention or any precedents
upon which it might be based
Frederick r. Coudert gave a written
opinion in which he says: Secretary
Olney's written statement seems TO me
perfectly clear. Senator Cameron'S
resolution, if passed by the senate and
house, will be merely advisory. 1T in
wolves no responsibilities whatever, as
it appears to me, on the part of the
United States government. There is
nothing in the resolution proposed and
pending in the senate TO which the gov
eminent of Spain has a right TO object
The senators of the United States are
not debarred by their high position
from expressing an opinion or a wish
on the subject of the Cuban rebellion.
Even if the resolution were passed, II
would not constitute an offense against
Spain. The senate would simply place
itself on record as entertaining q GER
tain opinion on matters which concern
a friendly power. True, congress may
declare war. if it should deem so grave
a step necessary for the national honor,
but the distance between such a de-
claration and the resolutions proposed
is too manifest to require notice"
Joseph Choate said: I am not pre-
pared yet to say anything on this
matter"
Elihu Root was equally reticent-
William r. HOrnblower said: Il do
not like at this juncture to give any de-
cided opinion on the merits of the case.
but it has always been my opinion that
the executive is the sole judge with
regard to dealings with foreign govern
ments. l think that the presidents
have all been IN this direction"
Wheeler II. Peckham said: This is
a question that does not arise every
day in the week. and involves a mo-
mentous principle that We are not fire.
quently called upon to consider. There
fore, would prefer saying nothing re-
garding it until ! have given the mat
ter my deepest thought But in
superficial sense l am inclined to think
that Secretary Olney is in the right.
Let me say, however. that that opinion
may turn out to be founded on Dreju-
dice. inasmuch as l am likely to regard
the action of the senate committee as
ill-judged and intolerant."

FAIR WILL CASE.
STARTLING DEVELOPMENTS
ARE LOOKED FOR.
Experts From New York Who Are
Expected to Aid Will Swear That
Crooked Work Was Done by Mrs.
Craven and Others.

San Francisco. Dec. 21.-The Exam
liner. this morning. says that startling
developments may be expected when
the celebrated Fair will case comes to
trial in February next.
Ever since Mrs Craven produced
the deeds to 81, 200. 900 worth of Fairs
property. the attorneys for Charles L.
Fair have had detectives at work fer
reting out matters that will be used to
contrOvert the claim that the deeds are
genuine Two New York experts on
penmanship, it is understood, are pre-
pared TO pronounce the deeds fOrgeries
as we'll as the pencil will. One matter
which viii be somewhat astonishing
when it develops is regarding the name
of the grantee in the deeds. Under the
powerful glasses which the experts
have brought to bear upon the docu-
ments. the faint outlines OF the name
Matte are visible under the name Net
tie. Matte is the diminutive for Mar
garet. the name of Mrs. Craven's
daughter. 1t is claimed that the deeds
were originally made out 10 Matte.
Craven and then changed so that Net
tie r. Craven now appears as the
grantee
The paper also states that Mrs.
Craven has been on friendly terms with
George Mcdonnell, member Of the
notorious Bidwen gang of forgers.
who once gave 2 series of steriOpticon
views in her schoolhouse. Mcdonnell
has been located by Captain Lees Of
the San Francisco police department
and may probably be called as a wit
ness.

SANGUlLLY'S TRIAL.
But Little Evidence and Thu In
Favor of the Prisoner.

Havana, Dec. 21.-The civil trial of
Julio Sanguilly. naturalized American
citizen, on charges of conspiracy
against the Spanish government. be-
gan at l o'clock this afternoon at the
Audenca.
There were five judges on the bench
and Vice-Consul General Springer. WHO
is acting consul general in the absence
of General Fitzhugh Lee, occupied q
seat near the justices.
After the usual preliminaries, counsel
for the defense claimed that the tri-
bunal was Illegally constituted, since
six justices should preside and not five,
and he, therefore. disputed the com
potency of the court TO hear and decide
the case. He claimed that the prisoner
was entitled 10 a trial by six justices.
according TO the law ruling in 1881,
when the Spanish American protocol
was drawn, and that he should not be
tried under the law of 1877. He made q
motion to this effect, but it was over
ruled.
= The defense announced that it would
later protest against the decision. The
taking of evidence then begun. The
chief of police and an Inspector were
the first witnesses. Their evidence was
favorable to the accused, they declar-
ing that they had no knowledge of

the rebel movement. Other witnesses
testified TO the same effect
The defense protested vigorously
against the reading of the testimony
given by Colona, the recently executed
prisoner. holding that its admission in
the trial was directly contrary to the
law.
Sanguilly testified that he did not
write the letters which were produced
in his former trial. and which the
prosecution claims prove, beyond doubt,
his connection with the rebellion.
The letters had been submitted to
experts, and they testified that they
were il the handwriting of the ac-
cused. The prosecuting attorney re-
viewed the case, claiming that the evil
dence was indisputable; that the pris-
oner had taken an important part in
the conspiracy to overthrow the Span
ish government in Cuba. He sl5ilfully
presented all the facts that could be
brought to bear against the accused.
and asked the court to sentence him
TO life Imprisonment.
The court then adjourned until to-
morrow

San Francisco. Dec. 21.-The at
torneys for W. H. T. Durrant. con-
victed OF the murder of Blanche La
mont at Emanuel Baptist church in
April. 1855. this morning filed their
brief in support of the motion for a
new trial.
The brief contains a review of the
testimony given at the trial. and the
evidence OF the witnesses for the prose-
cution is handled vigorously The Wit
neSses themselves come in for the same
sort OF treatment as does the daily
press OF the city. which is charged
with having done it's best to railroad
an innocent man to the gallows.
In reply, the attorney general depre-
Gates the statement that the verdict is
contrary to the evidence, and the
tendency to question the veracity of
witnesses and commends to the con-
sideration of the court the extreme
care with which the case was tried.
The record. he declares. is remark
ably free from everything approaching

fully accorded the defendant He there

finally in the hands of the court.

Chicago, Dec. 21.-This was lively
day for the president elect. His call
ers were more numerous than ever.
and about O'Clock in the afternoon
there was a demonstration which, in
character and magnitude, rivallel SINE
of the scenes witnessed in Canton in
the closing days of the campaign.
| Seven hundred children from schools
on the south side, near where Major
Mckinley is visiting, came shortly be-
fore o'clock to call upon him. Teach
ers accompanied the children. and
when Major Mckinley appeared in the
perch TO bow his Acknowledgements, the
air rang with cheers. and there was a
crimson flush of waving flags Nearly
all of the children carried small Amer
lean flags. The girls glee club from
the Hyde Park school, sang America
and the Star Spangled Banner" The
cheers and the fresh young voices
lifted in patriotic song attracted hun
dreds of adults. and in the course of
Is minutes the visit of the school chill
dren was turned into big reception.
The clamor TO see Major Mckinley and
TO shake hands with him became so
great that the people were asked to
file and walk through the house. Major
Mckinley met them in the reception
room and they passed out at a side
door. He shook hands with more than
1000 persons. and this important re-
ception lasted for more than an hour.
A feature of the crowd was the large
number of workingmen. Scores of
them, at the sound of the singing and
the cheers, left their tasks to go and
pay their respects to the president
elect.
Among Major McKinley's callers to-
day were Charles G. Dawes, and sew
eral members of the Illinois delegation
in congress.
1t was intended that Major Mckinley,
Mrs. Mckinley and the others in the
party should start for Canton tonight.
This programme would have been car
ried out had not the major given way
under the pleading of the school chill
dren and held public reception, in the
afternoon. There was no-time left to
get ready for the train. 1t was then
decided TO POSTPONE the departure I'M
til tomorrow night and this predicts
that tomorrow will be a very busy
day at the MacWilliams residence.

New York, Dec. 21.-Boh Armstrong,

who was heralded as a second Peter
Jackson proved to be a vast disap-
pointment to his friends, by his show
ing with Charley Strong. the New
York colored heavyweight at the
Broadway Athletic club tonight With
an advantage of seven inches in height,
and 25 pounds in weight. it took the
Chicago man 10 rounds to dispose of
Strong, who is only a game second
rater. Armstrong had lost skill and
vital power. He depended on a
straight jab and never used his right
until the deciding blow and had alb
soiutely no knowledge OF countering
Had Strong been tall enough to reacn
the Chicagoan's jaw, the result might
have been different. AS II was, the
New York man fought a game fight
against big odds and was loudly
cheered at the finish Joe Choynslzi,
George Dixon and John Thomas were
behind Armstrong. Joe Connolly Dave
Leahy and "Scotty" Fulkner seconded
Strong.
They were scheduled to go 20 rounds

committee on appropriations. The
principal speeches in favor of the ap-

SENATE AND HOUSE.
PROCEEDINGS WERE OF A FORM
AL NATURE.
Hill Offers Resolution Declaring
That a State of War Exists In
Cuba, and According Belligerent
Rights to the Insurgents.

Washington, Dec. 2l.-There was no
special excitement manifested today
by either the senator or by the general
public in the matter Of the joint resolu-
ton, acknowledging the Independence
of the republic OF Cuba The galleries
were not occupied to the extent OF
two-thirds OF their capacity, and the
proceedings were of a formal and un-
interesting character. They consisted
merely of reporting the joint resolution
by Mr.. Cameron (Rep.), Pennsylvania,
from the committee on foreign reia-
tions, and of the Offering of various
substitutes for it on the part OF the
senators.
Mr.. Vest Dem.), Missouri. presented
resolution, declaring that the execu-
tive power to demand recognition when
the independence of foreign people
struggling TO establish a government
for themselves should be recognized is
vested by the constitution not in the
president of the United States, but in
congress. and he gave notice that he
would address the senate tomorrow In
support of that declaration
Mr.. Hill (Dem.). New York, offered
substitute for the committees joint
resolution. declaring that state of war
exists in Cuba; according belligerent
that the United States will preserve
state of neutrality between the bellig-
erents.
Mr. Bacon (Dem.), Georgia, offered
resolution asserting that the question
of recognition of any people as free
and Independent nation is question
exclusively for the determination of
congress, and does not appertain to the
executive department.; and still an
other resolution was offered by Mr..
Chiffon (Dem.), Texas, declaring that a
condition of public war exists between
the government of Spain and the gov
eminent which for some time has been
maintained by force of arms by the
people of Cuba, and that the United
States will maintain a strict neutrality
between the contending parties, accord
ing to each all the rights of belligerents
in the ports and territory of the United
States. These various resolutions and
substitutes were either laid on the
table with the foreign relations COM
mittee's report, or were referred to the
committee on judiciary. The whole
subject, however. will be open TO dis
cussion tomorrow. wnen Mr.. Vest calls
up his resolution
There was no other business of i'm
portance transacted today. An effort
was made by Mr.. Gear (Rep), Iowa,
to have the Pacific roads funding bill
made the unfinished business, but an
objection was interposed, and Mr.. Gear
gave notice that he would call up that
bill Immediately after the reassembling
of congress after the holiday recess.
At $3.50 the senate. after a short
executive session. adjourned until to-
morrow.
