More Truth Than Poetry,

The man who wrote the following evident
ly knew what he was writing about, and to
have become as familiar with the subject as
ne shows himself to be, must have gained
his knowledge by experience. The article
is credited to the Alabany journal, and here
is what it says;
Newspaper men are not morbid, or es.
pecially dissatisfied with their lot. but it
may be said that nine.tenths of them, out
side of the large cities, if they were to begin
life over again. would avoid printing office
as they would pestilenee. They see and
come in contract with more petty meanness
than anybody else. They are swindled
oftner ten to one, than anyone else; even
those who pray, often time prey upon the
newspaper man. Appreciation for him, as
compared with what he does in and for a
community is reduced to vanishing point
aud accompanies his income to limit OF
nothingness. In addition to his capabih.
ties as writer, when he possesses it, he
must be careful painstaking and iudicious
business man, and yet few ever think OF
him in that light at all He is expected to
do thousand things with paper that as a
business man, he knows would prove fatal
and when he politely declines people wsn'
to know what a newspaper is for. They
never suspect that it has a business end
which, if neglected. will bring collapse.

Tho Feeling In uabana,

Habana, May 1.-THE Spanish gov
eminent has been asked TO approve the
sentences Of death passed by a court
martial upon the men captured on board
the Competitor on a charge OF piracy and
rebellion. The men sentenced are:
Alfredo Laberde.-said to be the leader
of the party and claiming American
citizenship.
DR.. Elias Bedia. also claiming Ameri-
can citizenship.
William Gildea. said to be a British
subject.
John Milton, a native OF Kansas.
Teodoro Mata.
This places the fate Of the men in the
hands OF authorities at Madrid, and in
sures that they viii not be executed
without an order from the Spanish gov
ernment.
1t has become known that the British
consul also intervened, in the name OF
his government, on behalf OF the Com
petitofs captives sentenced To death.
He inyokes clemency for the prisoners.
This action OF the British government
In the case has caused a sensation here,
and II has been the topic of comment by
all social classes In the community.
1t would be difficult to say. from any
admissions made in official quarters,
what effect this new development will
have in the case. There is a marked
absence OF irrltabllity manifested in the
comments on the subject, and the ac-
tion OF the British official seems TO have
been taken in good part. IL is pointed
out that the Intervention of the British
consul is couched in very different form
from that Of the United States consul
general and is, In fact, expressed ipvery
friendly terms invoking the clemency
of the Cuban authorities.
The question of the execution of the
captiYes of the Competitor is recognized
to be one Of the most important which
has occurred since the insurrections
broke out Now that the question has
been referred to the government at
Madrid, the situation here has quieted
down, though there is no cessation OF
interest and discussion of the question.
The attitud. OF the public is rather one
Of waiting on the resolution Of the Mad.
rid government. The waiting is at

CHAMBER OUTFITS.

States toward the sentence OF the Com
petitor captives.
A late dispatch from Habana confirms
the report that Captain General Weyler
has threatened to resign his post unless
the sentences are executed.
Senior Canovas del Castillo, the pre-
n.ier, being asked for an expression OF
his opinion regarding the matter, said:
THE affair must be settled I'm accord
ance with the law and existing treatieS"
The Heraldo compares the offensive
conduct of the United States consul gem
eral at Habana with that of the Brit
ish consul, who made friendly repre-
sentations in favor OF pardoning the
prisoners. Public opinion, says The
Heraldo. vehementiy opposes American
interference, This paer maintains that
the rebels In Cuba are constantly re-
ceiving assistance from America. with
out which the rebellion would have
been suppressed long ago.
Great indignation is expressed both
by the public and the press over the
landing OF the Bermuda expedition.
which has been announced in a highly
sensational manner by the newspapers
here.
The Epoca, which Is the ministerial
organ. discusses the question In a far
more conservative and less embittered
manner than the other newspapers. II
declares that Americas demand applies
exclusively to the form OF trial. and not
10 the penalty. II believes that the
Spanish government will decide that the
matter shall be submitted to the su-
preme military and naval court. The
Epoca also says that the attitude OF
President Cleveland and Mr.. Olney ap-
pears 10 be Incredible and declares thar

New York World deserves no serious re-
ply, because the offense can never be re-
sarded as a question of contraband sc.

law.
the United States are unjust and mefhc-
ing. because 1t is incontestible that fill
clustering expeditions are organized in
the United States without difficulty, and
that consequently such arbitrary con-
duct wounds the national sentiment of
Spain.
Several papers publish the report that
beside General Weyler, Generals Och
ando and Ahumada. who hold important
commands In Cuba, have also threatened

martial is quashed.
