IL the intention Of the leaders OF the
victorious party be to keep the promises
that have been made, the wage-earners
of the country should feel thankful that
President Mckinley will have no hostile
Congress to contend with. He will have
perfectly clear sailing, and if, as has been
the assurance, a protective policy shall
not only raise wages so as to meet the
increased cost of the necessaries OF life,
but lift them above that point, the Re-
publican landslide of 1900 will dwarf
that Of even 1896. Should the promise
Of prosperity SO lavishly and confidently
made during the campaign be fulfilled
during the term Of office, the clouds oil
class war that 80 many OF the European
newspapers see upon the American hori-
zon, and that perhaps are there. will fade
away. Otherwise the volume of discon-
tent will increase and the victors OF the
late election will be without excuse.
They will have to admit either that their
theory WAS wrong or that their promises
were not made in good faith. The
American people have loyalty accepted
the outcome Of the campaign and now
await the prosperity they have a right to

CUBAN FILIBUSTERERS.
All the Men Released by the Attorney
General.

NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-General Calixto
Garcia and about sixty others of the lead
ing spirits in the Cuban revolutionary
cause, who were captured on board the
British steamship Bermuda and the tug
boats Mcauldin and Strsnahan in the up
per bay early this morning, Were brought
to the federal building at 10 o'clock this
morning under strong guard of United
States deputy marshals.
- The remainder of the Dlibusterers ar
rested were also arraigned before United
States Commissioner Shields.
United States Marshal Kennedy this
afternoon made a statement regarding
the seizure of the Bermuda and the arrest
of the men found on board the steamship
and tugboats. He said he received in
formation that Cuban filibustering ex-
pedition was being fitted out in this port,
and the Bermuda was suspected of being
the vessel chartered TO carry the revolu-
tionists TO Cuba. The authorities at
Washington were then communicated
with and the United states Attorney Gen
erel on saturday telegraphed orders to
watch the steamship and rot to make
arrests unless on positive evidence that
the neutrality law was being violated.
The bermuda was kept under surveil-
lance and at late hour last night, when
67 men We're put on board from the tug
boat McCalden il was decided to seize the
vessel and make arrests on Comims-
sioner Shields warrant. There was
no trouble in taking possession of the
Bermuda and those on board offered no
resistance. The steam lighter Stranahan,
however, had to be followed down the
bay and she.was captured near the Mar
rows by the revenue cutter Hudson. Cap
tain Samuel Hughes was on the lighter
and had with him about 100 cases, con-
taining 40 tons of arms and ammunition.
CaptainBabazou was in charge of the Ber-
muda at the time of the seizure and was
Cm )ng those arrested. AS soon as the
steamship was boarded the connecting rod
of the machinery was disconnected so as
to disable the vessel and TO prevent pos
sible escape.
ORDERED BY THE ATTORNEY GENERAL.
Commissioner Shields has ordered the
release OF all the men arrested in connec-
tion with the Bermuda matter, with the
exception of General Garcia, Captain
Hughes and two other leaders. The pris-
oners will be arraigned before the COM
missioner at once.
ing Gen. Garcia, Captain Hughes and
two Others was I'm compliance with tele-
graphic order from the United states At
torney General at Washington, which.was
to the effect that no arrests should be-
made on suspicion only, but those against
whom evidence had been secured should
be taken into custody.
Commissioner Shields set the hearing OF
General Garcia and three others for 3
o clock this afternoon.

What the Latest Census
Bulletin Shows.
State Has 183,727 White
Males and 1913, ,804 Females.
The COlored Population Is 1928
Chinese, 122; Japanese, E.

The census bureau has Just issued bulle-
tin No. 8 which deals with the color and
race, by sex, of the population of the
State. From this bulletin it appears that
on the 1st of June last the white popula-
tion of Rhode Island consisted OF 1873, ,727
males, and 1872, s0l females, an increase
during the past ten years of 40, 607 or 2s. 81
per cent. in males and IS, 9S2 or 1884 per
cent. in females.
The colored population on June 1st
last numbered 1928, OF whom 1852 were
males and 4276 feamles, an increase in ten
years of boo or 1908 per cent. In males
and $40 or 1852 per cent In females. The
term "colored" Is employed to denote all
persons of African descent, RS 1t was found
impracticable to secure reliable returns of
mulattoes or persons OF mixed race for
enumeration as a separate class.
The superintendent of the census, Mr..
Henry +. Tiep<e, further states that il is
very difficult to make distinction in this
state between "colored' persons and In
dians, for intermarriage with the African
race has practically obliterated all traces
of the aborigines. he census of 1885
enumerated as Indians, persons
whose mothers were known to
be of Indian blood and 96 males
and 1O3 females were reported under the
Indian classification. In preparing the
present bulletin the returns of the pre-.
vious state census, so far as il relates to
Indians. have been used, and care has been
taken to classi fy as Indians all descend
ants and representatives of families
enumerated as Indians in 1885. This
results in placing the number of Indians
in the stete-on jan 1 last at 16S, OF whom
80 were males and IS were females.
In 1885, 20 Chinese and two japanese
were found In Rhode Island, while ac-
cording to the present census the Chinese
have increased TO 122 and the japanese to
nine, all OF them males.

population of the city by wards to be as

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, Feb. 25.-(via
Galvest on The flag of rebellion has
once more been raised in Nicaragua and
reports received here from the North this
morning show that the whole district
north OF Lake Managua, including the
department of the West and North, are i'm
open rebellion against President Zelaya.
Martial law has been proclaimed and the
impressing of men into the army is be-
ing pushed rapidly. The president is
supported by wing Of the liberal party
and 20, 600 men are already under arms.
This tswn, the capital. Is being actively
made ready for defence as the insurgents,
who headquarters are at Leon, the old
capital OF Nicaragua, and the center of
the old Roman Catholic population, as
opposed to the Catholics of more modern
views, are expected TO make an attack
upon this city. A strong detachment of
the Leonists has already left that town
and 1t is believed that Managua viii be
attacked tomorrow or the next day.
The conservative party in this city met
this morning and resolved to give moral
support TO President Zelaya and also de-
termined to send ex-President Gardenas
and General Avigil TO Granada, near Lake
Nicaragua to inform their paTtisans there
of their determination to support the
president. The insurgents are supported,
a portion of the political party in power;
but, up. TO the present, what is known as
the opposition party proper has not joined
the rebels.
The antagonistic feelings of the people
of Leon and its vicinity and those of
Managua date from way back and are
founded upon old jealousies having relig
ion as their tasis and more modern ideas,
on the other hand, as their excuse. Un-
happily for President Zelaya a large con-
signment of modern arms and artillery.

time, il was feared would fall into the
hands of the British admiral. have, owing TO
political intrigues, found their way to
Leon and are now to be used against the
president and his supporters. The excuse
for sending the arms to Leon was that a
certain party here was in favor Of dicta-
torship being declared and that therefore,
Ii was advisable that the modern arms
and ammunition should be stored at Leon
where, it was asserted, there was less like
lihood of demonstration for or against
the government. The Leonists were pow
erful enough 20 have their way in this
matter, and il would seem from the pres
ent developments that this was only fea-
ture of plot to overthrow the govern
ment OF President Zelaya.
