GAM BLING RAID
And Other Criminal News Gathered at the

VI late frequent complaints have been

OF an alleged gambling establishment
on commercial street, near the Custom
House, and Saturday additional COM
plants having come in, Deputy Sterling
TOOK out a warrant against ''parties un-
Known" and sent Patrolmen Morse and
FRANK to investigate the alleged estab-

the room just as man, who was about

X persons in the room, and of course
Mr.. Jack Pot was in their midst.
The sudden and unlocked for appear

tirely by surprise. but they made no
resistance when told that they were un-
der arrest. One man tried to grab the
pot" but was stopped. 1t was only a
matter of 50, but was taken together with
the "outfit.''
OF course all who were in the game,
or the room, begged hard to be allowed
to go, but all the patrolmen could say
was "You must see the deputy" and the
entire party was sent to the station.
Deputy Sterling found that three of the
men had taken no part in the game, and
so were mot guilty, but don't do 1t

parts of the city, and I found that I
must do something. A reception was out

friends of the prisoners from taking up

CUBA WILL HAVE A NAVY.
A Member of the Junta Says That One is
in Prospect.

New York, March 21.-The Tribune
says: A we'll known member of the
Cuban junta stated yesterday that as soon
as the United States recognizes Cuban
belligerency d navy will be provided
within short time to prey upon Span
ish commerce and fight the Spanish navy
in the waters of the Atlantic ocean sur
rounding the island.
1t is understood that for many months,
or, in fact, almost ever since the present
war begun the junta has had a list of
available vessels owned by different
countries, which could be purchased for
war purposes. Among this number are
three or four men ofwar.
The junta officer said that within two
months of the time the administration
recognizes Cuba, the Spaniards would
meet a naval force which, while not at all
extensive, would be. strong enough to
give them plenty to do. They would, of
course, avoid battle with the more for
midable of the Spanish warships, but
their main object would be to prey upon
the commerce of Spain.
1t is also the intention to fit out q GER
tain number of privateers, just how many
it is not known outside of the junta and
probably at this time the junta itself
does not know However locked in q
vessels which could easily be converted
into cruisers powerful enough to infict
great damage on Spanish commerce.
1t is asserted that already arrangements
have been made with one or two leading
heavy ordnance manufacturers to ship
guns to certain points with the least
possible delay when the time arrives.
Cuban agents are already placed at va
rlous points ready to complete purchases
upon receipt OF orders from their superior
officers. Contributions for the Cuban
cause are flowing in at more rapid rate
than most people imagine.

Queen OF Scots, has been approved by
the Catholic diocese of Westminster;
where the inquiry into her claims to
martyrdom was held. The matter is now
before the authorities in Rome. The
Tablet, leading Catholic organ, says
that the question of her canonizatioD is
not dealing with the life of the Queen or
the vexed points of her history. The
question is purely whether she died as a
martyr to her faith. 1t adds that not
even her enemies can deny her martyrs
