wEYLER WARS ON WOMEN.

New York, Dec. 4.-Santiago de Gu
ba correspondent of the World says;
This city was thrown into cOnsterna-
ton by a descent of Spanish police
men. The homes of many promin-
ent Cubans were entered, after the
town folks had gone to bed. 1t is
known that at least % persons were
arrested and hurried off to prisons,
Nearly all of Eastern Cuba is in the
minds of Cubans except this city.
The Spanish policy of arresting Gu
bans suspected of sympathy with the
insurgents had long since spread its
terrors among all classes. These re-
cent arrests are further evidence of
Gen. Weyler's intentions to wage war
on Cubans in their homes, as well as
on armed bodies in the field. No one
can learn any definite reasons for the
sudden arrests. There were three
women among the prisoners. They
were all locked in the Jail. All were
taken to Moro Castle. Among the
prisoners were a doctor, two lawyers
and four merchants. All arrested
under the general charge of plotting
against the Spanish authorities.

n diamond cross to the pope, in order
that he might secure from him per-
mission to remove his sister from the
convent. Mr.. Gail was thoroughly
convinced of the sincerity of the ltal-
ian's story and secured $4,000 worth
of diamonds from AdOlph Peabody

brought friend along with him TO
make the deal and they had BANK

was asked to keep the box until they
returned an hour later, claiming that
they had business that would take
them out for that length Of time. Mr..
Gail took the box in which he had
Just seen the money and diamonds
placed. 1t had been carefully lock
ed his presence. After two or three
hours had elapsed the Italians did not
return and becoming suspicious Mr..
Gail broke open the box and found
inside instead of the diamonds and
money "a two dollar bill and silk

HOLY HUNG.
M0REsHUNG THAN HOLY. ACCORD

A Heather Chinee Row, With the Angel
Of the Tombs" As Savior at
the Police Court.

New York, Dec 4.-The Herald says:
Almost beneath the portals of the
criminal court building about dozen
cinnamon engaged in a riot to settle
an old fued One lies badly wounded
in the Hudson street hospital and six
others are prisoners awaiting trial for
assault.
The wounded man and two of the
prisoners are members of a Chinese
society. The other prisoners are
members Of the Hip Sing Tong (Mu-
tual Aid Society which is legally in
corporated and purports to be organ
lied to break up gambling. The po-
lice, although they frequently profit
by the information furnished by its
members against the gamblers, de-
clare that it is an association of high
binders who prey upon the law break
ers Of Chinatown.
The rival society is known as the
On Long Tong. 1t is composed of the
CALLERS and merchants of the Chin
csc quarter. It's members became
alarmed some months ago. at the
growth in powey and influence of the
Hip Sing Tong and revived and old
charge against Dong Fong, Hoey Cow,
ders of the reforms. They secured
lawyers to push the case and the four
men were placed on trial before Judge
Cowing in the court of general ses-
sions charged by Chin Tong with hav-
ing assaulted him in the corridor Of
the Chinese theatre in Dover street
in 1891 and having robbed him Of
$500.
A crowd of witnesses appeared on
both sides and swore to contradictory
statements and the result was that
the jury disagreed standing 6 for ac-
quittal and for conviction.
The prisoners, their friends and their
enemies, left the court in bunch
and started up Franklin street tow
ards. Chinatown. Lem Dock Sing,
who had been a witness for the COM
plainants was slightly in advance.
Behind him were dozen or so of the
''reformers." One of them, Wong
Hong, was seen to dart forward and
strike Lem Dock Sing with 'black
jack stick" an instrument much used
by highbinders and made by wind
ing leather string around piece Of
lead. Lem staggered and another
reformer jumped forward and hit
him another blow on the point Of the
chin. He fell and a dozen or more
reformers piled in on top of him.
Mrs. Schaffner, ''Tombs angel who
had accompanied the refOrmers from
the building, screamed for help and
several citizens and a half dozen
policemen ran up.
Henry Joffe found Lee Hee with his
them out for that length of time. Mr..
was kicking the injured man in the
face. Joffe caught Dong Kim by the
shoulder and received a blow in the
face. Then the police arrived and
made prisoners of Lee Hee, Lung
Vow, Dong Kim, Chung Ming, Wong
Hung and Holy Hung.
Sing was lying unconscious on the
ground, bleeding from dozen wounds.
An ambulance was summoned from
the Hudson street hospital and Sing,
still unconscious, was taken there.

slight chance of recovery.

case and held the six assailants i'm

SHE WANTS FREEDOM.
From Her Half-Breed Husband, And
Seeks Divorce.


Seeks Divorce.
Perry, Okla, Dec. AIRS. Addie
4. Conner, daughter of one of the lea
ding merchants of Dexter, Kas., once
a belle d that state, has brought suit
for divorce against William HI. Con-
ner. The defendant is a half-breed
Usage Indian and is treasurer of the
tribe. He is reputed to be worth over
100000. Mrs. Corners petition is
sensational in the extreme. Although
the wife of an Indian, she has been
quite popular in white society in
Usage Nation, Okla, and her native
state, Kansas.
Mrs Conner says she was welded to
William Conner in 1882, and that one
child, boy, was born to them. She
says her husband is addicted to the
drink habit, and has, since their mar
rage, treated her cruelty. While
drunk Mrs. Conner says her Indian
husband beats her and uses bad Ian
guage in her presence; in fact, he has,
on several occasions come near killing
her. He is insanely jealous, so Mrs.
Conner alleges, and has often beaten
her into a confession of infidelity. On
one occasion, November IL, 1895, Mrs.
Conner says,her husband dragged her
from her bed when she was sick and
came near beating her to death. At
that time Mrs. Conner fled from her
husbands home, and has not lived
with him since.
Besides divorce and the custody OF
tla;r ohild Mrs Conner who eIlumer-
ates property to the amount of $780,
600 owend by her Indian husband, and
a yearly income of $4,000. prays for
alimony to support herself and son.
She says that although her husband
is rich he has not contributed one cent
to her and her child's support since
November %, 1895. Conner is lea
ding member of his tribe, and is well
known throughout Oklahoma, Indian
Territory and Kansas.

At the annual meeting Of the Agri-
cultural Society Capt. c. B. benson
moved that a committee Of five be
appointed to prepare memorial OF
the life and services of Thomas M.
Holt, for fifteen years president of the

which, at the request of the members
is partly reproduced as follows:
"1 am sure, Mr.. President, that the
unanimous expression of this body

getic Secretary, upon the brilliant sue
cess of the State Fair Of 1So6-both

throng of spectators il our grounds.
1t may be justly said that there are

at any Exposition which this country
ever witnessed, the Worlds Fair at
Chicago included. l sincerely and
warmly congratulate you.

Lost the Sale.

A good story is told Of Oliver Wal
ton who in his day was the greatest
dealer of good horses near Boston. On
one occaci0n he went INTO Maine and
bought an extra good hor>e for 5000.
The old farmer was one If the mig
gardly kind (~c hope there are none
there now and he says: "How are
you going to lea. the horse awa>?'
"With that ha;,r that is on him, to
be sure" said IL cider Walton, as he
was busy counting the money ou. foI
the horse. "No sir" said the farmer
"the halter don't go with the hprse, il
belongs to me. l did not sell you
that" "Nhat, not let me have hal.
ter after have given you your price
for the horse?" said old Oliver little
surprised, .swhat do you want for l,?'
ga dollar, SIR" said the farmer. "All
right,' said Walton, "here is the dol.
lar, want the halter" He put the
rest OF the money in his pocket, stepped
quickly to the horses head and re-
marked, 81 will take the halter, but |
guess | will not take the horse" He
took off the halter and let the horse &c
loose. The farmer probably had many
a long day IN which to repent of hi
sharI ness.
