was the Oldest member of the Le-

anan for president and was the
same year elected to congress to
fill the unexpired term of Thorn
as B. Cooper, and was reelected
in 1858 and 1862. In 1864 he was
a delegate to the Democratic ma

HASTY WEDDING.
BALTIMORE DOCTOR MARRIBs A
WE'LL KNOWN ACTRESS.
Ethel Chase sprague is Now Mrs. DR.
Frank Donaldson, Wife of an
Amateur

New York, Oct. 3O.-A special from
Baltimore to the Herald says that
San Francisco dispatch announcing
the hasty marriage in that city of DR..
Frank Donaldson and Ethel Chase
Sprague, the actress and daughter of
Kate Chase Sprague, did not surprise
the Maryland friends of DR.. Frank
Donaldson. DR.. Donaldson is the son
of a Baltimore physician. Upon his
graduation from Harvard he practic-
ed his profession for several years in
Baltimore with success. In early life
he married Miss Mamie r. Mcdonald,
a member of an old Virginia family
they spent several wears abroad and
upon their return from Europe, Mrs.
Donaldson secured divorce from her
husband. One of the sisters of Dr.
Donaldson three weeks ago received
a letter announcing that he had ac-
cepted a professorship in one of the
medical colleges in San Francisco. Pri-
or to this he resided in New York city
for several months.
The doctor has written several plays
and is quite a noted amateur actor,
though he has never been known to
aspire to the professional stage. Mrs.
Donaldson and her mother, Mrs. Kate
Charles Sprague, are both we'll known
in Baltimore. 1t is understood that
a secret marriage was contracted by
the young people in July. The oppo-
sition of the brides mother and the
fear that it might injure her profess
sional career have been given as the
reasons WHY the announcement was
not made at the time Of the marriage
several months ago. The discovery
that the afftir was known is said to be
responsible for the hurried religious
marriage last evening.

MONEY is PROTECTED.
NEW YORK BANKS WILL SEE THAT
NO PANIC ARISES.
The Clearing House Managers and Bank
Presidents Say There Need be no -
Fears of Tightening. :. -.


Erlasr
New York, Oct. 3O-There was a NOT
ale absence of excitement i'm Wall
street at the opening today consider
ing the extreme stringency of money
yesterday. Higher London 0uOts-
tons, scarcity of stocks Offering I'm
the local market and rumOr of finan-
cial relief measures to be taken nv the
banks, caused confident sentiment.
The only loan reported up to eleven
o'clock was of $4,000 at 80 per cent.
This was an outside transaction as
regular loans were not made in the
stock exchange until eleven O'Clock. In
banking circles it is understood that
an informal agreement has been
reached by six or seven institutions
to pool their issues in the event of
money reaching what is considered as
prohibitive figures today or upon any
indication of distress in the Street or
in any mercantile circles, that will
draw upon their reserve to as large an
extent as may be in the treasury. 1t
is rumored that the banks are prepar-
ed to put out five or ten million dol
lars.
No official action will be taken by
the clearing house as a body. Pres
ident Simons, of the clearing house
association, says there is nothing in
the present financial situation to ex-
cite alarm and that the banks are
abundantly able to meet any emergen-
cy that may arise. President Tappen,
of the clearing house loan committee,
says the money market will be taken
care of. President Nash, of the Corn
Exchange National bank, says the
banks will keep the money rate down
so far as legitimate borrowers are
concerned. and ''our bank will lend
money today"
Considerable increase is noted in the
demand for cash gold. especially in
lots of $1,000 to 10000: premium has
risen to 9-16@11-16 and many transac-
tons are reported at 9sda per cent.
Calls on gold goood for the rest of the
year are quoted at 1.11A@11a per cent.
1890 p. m-Call money was bid at
40 per cent for $4,000, and offered at
50 per cent.

Cincinnati, Ohio, Oct. 3O.-There were
two shooting ARRAYS here yesterday.
In the first one Bann Mann, n drunk
en- Swede was elected from the Saliva
ton barracks, at Front and Broad

Murray, an outsider, not dangerously,
and little girl in the wrist. He also
fired at his pursuers before his arrest.
The other shooting was at FleiSh-

of the city. The participants were
two government store keepers, on du-
~ at the distillery, A. i. Mckenzie
and Barnie Langmeir. Mckenzie
shot Langmeir in the bowels and in
the groin. Langmeir is dying at the
Belts street hospital. Mckenzie came
to the police station and surrendered.
1t is stated Langmeir assaulted Nc
kenZie, brutally twice and upon the
second assault Mckenzie shot him.

2.ANOTHER GEM LOOSE.
SPAIN MAY HAVE REBELLION IN
PORTO RICO.
If Cuba Gains Independence She Will
Certainly Assist Her Sister Country
To Throw off the Oastilian Yoke.

New York, Oct 30-A special to the
Herald from Porto Rico says:
SPANS cup of woe will certainly be
filled TO overlooking, if, as some Sus-
peCt, it is possible a spark from the
Cuban fire is borne to Porto Rico and
proves sufficient to breathe the flame
into inSurrectiOp. The government
realizes the situation and knows well
the intiamable nature of the material
with which it is dealing and carries
its precautions almost to the verge of
eXaggeratiOn. If the people here tell
the truth, however, there is no likeli-
hood of any trouble here at least while
the struggle in Cuba goes on. That
bitter struggle ended and the ends
gained, there can be no doubt but that
there will be an uprising in Porto Rico
but until that time comes the island is
not likely TO give Spain any trouble
other than that to be made to the
cause of the revOlutiOnistS by cOntri-
buttons.
Senior Xavier Marian, a rich merch-
ant in POnto, on the opposite side of
the island from Porto Rico, in an in
terview said:
Il do not think there is any danger
of an instruction against the Span
iSh government on the part of Porto
Rico. That there are some Cuban
sympathisers on the island there can
be no dougt and the government is
on the outlook for such of them as go
to the point of imprudence has been
shown already by the arrests in Agu-
adilla.
whatever degree of feeling may
exist among native Porto RicanS is in
a small portion of the island. The
population, something like 800, 600 in
all. would in itself be enough to pre-
clude the probability of any general
uprising under present conditions. Ev-
en- monetary aid that Porto Rico
might be able to offer the insurgents
in Cuba would have to be sent to
New York and find its way to its Ill
innate destination through the Amer
lean junta. "
But in case Cuba should achieve
autonomy or even independence what
would be the effect on Porto Rico,
he was asked.
"Ah. that's another matter" said
Senior Marian, with a smile. very
likely in that case Cubans would want
to see Porto Rico free too, and once
sure of their assistance there is no
telling what the natives here would
do

THE RED CROSS,
sPANIARDs' LATEST DODGE TO SUB.
VERT AMERICAN SYMPATHY.
But Tomas Estrada Tells the Truth
Spain's Cruel War Pursues Even the
Wounded and Dying Cubans.

New York, Oct. 3O.-The Herald this
morning says:
A special commission of the Span
ish branch of the International Red
Cross society, which recently arrived
in this city from Havana, has issued
circular letter appealing to the A
merican public for funds to aid in the
work of the Spanish branch of the So
ciety in Cuba. 1t is stated in the cir
cular that the Spanish branch of the
society in Cuba lends assistance to all
the i'll and wounded in the field, Gu
bans and Spanish alike.
TOmaSo estrada. head of the Cuban
junta, in an interview referring to the
circulars, said:
Il wish it to be known that state
ment that the work of the Spanish
branch of the society in Cuba is abso-
lutely independent of government con-
troll and free from any political bias,
is not true. The society is completely
under the control of the Spanish gov
eminent and none of its members are
allowed to minister to the wounded
and dead Cubans. can prove by the
press reports that there have been
many cases where Cuban surgeons
have nursed the wounded Spanish sol
diers. escorting them afterward to the
Spanish lines.
"Only recently Spanish decree was
issued placing the drug trade under
the control of the government in or
der to keep, under severe penalty, any
medicine reaching the Cuban hospit
ais. 1t is for these reasons that we
Cubans must rely on the United
States for the medicines for our Ill
and wounded in Cuba. And it is t.
keep the Spanish soldiers from assault
ting our hospitals that we place then
in the heart of the mountains, where
only Cubans would dare to tread.
while l will not grudge the com
mission any amount of success the!
may meet with in their work, / deem
it my duty as a Cuban to let the A
merican people know the true affair
in the case of the Red Cross societ!
