Canton. o.. Dec. s0-The big tin horn
which attracted so much attention in
the Illinois campaign reached Canton
yesterday borne by the men Of Decatur.
Ills, who set out Nov. is to make the
trip. The horn II thirty feet long and
has a bell six feet In diameter. and re-
Quires about a dozen men to blowit. The
men are laborers. two Of them being
carpenters. two timers and two paint
ers. 1t was n condition Of their under
taking that the citizens OF Decatur
would contribute a purse OF 81 900 In the
event that an equal sum was raised by
the men while on the march TO Canton
But the men have not had smooth sail
ing.
They declare that up TO the time they
reached Indianapolis they had good
success In selling pictures of the horn
and in other contributions. but since
that time they have not made expenses
The hospitality shown them has been
generous with but very few exceptions
They have been met by hands and
drum corps and other organizations in
the states throughout which they passed
The men soon after reaching the city
went to the Mckinley home and pre-
sented the horn to the prcsident-elect,
who received the visitors very cordially
On account Of the incessant rainfall no
demonstration was made.

DENIAL OF THE POSTS STORY.
Comes Omcially Both from Our Nation
Capital and Madrid.

Capital and Madrid.
Washington, Dec. 30.-ReferrinR &c
the statement of The Post of this CITY
that Spain had asked the United State,
to guarantee to the Cuban insurgent,
the reforms Spain will inaugurate in
that island, an official denial has beer
made here. Nothing Of the sort has
transpired and no such communication
from Canovas has been received. Ne.
gotiations toward home rule have pro.
ceeded for some months, and the last
phase OF these negotiations indicated an
enlargement Of the home rule laws
adopted by the Spanish cortes last year
but not put into execution.
These arrangements. as announced by
the Associated Press. embrace the elec-
ton of the entire Cuban congress. in
stead of a mixed congress of fifteen
members and fifteen appointed by the
queen regent, and also a complete con-
troll by Cuba of her tariff
The last statement regarding Spain's
intentions with the respect to he
pacification Of Cuba therefore deals
with a past phase of them, Spain hay-
ing decided on a considerably more
liberal scheme of reform than the old
one, to which the latest publication of
the Cuban subject has reference. A.
yet, however. the negotiations with re-
spect to the enlarged reforms are ten
tative. A draft of them has not been
received yet at Washington. and the in
formation on them is of a general ma
ture. Meantime a dispatch from Ma
drid says:"An emphatic denial is given
here to the report credited to the wash
ington Post that Senior Dupuy de LONE.
the Spanish minister at Washington.
and Mr.. Olney have concluded nego-
tiations for the acceptance by Spain of
the good offices of the United States in
the settlement of the Cuban insurrec-
ton"
