"To supercede Senator Jones with a

fully as well qualified and better

Senator than Gov. Clarke.

SPAIN'S PERILOUS POSITION.
Political Leaders Think the Crisis is
Not Far Off.
With a Rebellion In Cuba, Dangers of
War with America, and an
Exhausted Credit.

HAVANA, March % (via Tampa,
March 23).-(From staff correspond
ent of the United Press. .)-Spain, with
rebellion growing apace in Cuba, to-
kens of coming revolution at home,
dangers of war with the United States,
exhausted credit and the Cortes dis
solved pending a new election, is in a
perilous position. Political leaders
here, who are well informed, say that
the crisis is not far off. One of the Re-
formists said to-day:
When Canovas succeeded Sagasta,
the Cuban rebellion was just begun. and
Sagasta, who was supported by the Fu-
sionistS, offered him support in what
ever war measures should be adopted
to suppress the trouble. But Canovas,
evidently lacking confidence in the sup
port of Sagasta and the Fusionists,
who, with the Republicans, form ma
jority in the Cortes, and fearing a coali-
tion with the Carlists and other dissat-
isfied factions for the purpose of crush
ing him, decided to dissolve the Cortes,
and, with all the Government machin-
cry at hand, obtain a victory over his
opponents by returning a majority in
his favor in the new Cortes.
with this end in view, he consulted
General Weyler as to the possibility of
holding elections in Cuba. Weyler not
only replied that it was possible, but
telegraphed his guarantee that they
would take place. Then Canovas is
sued the decree dissolving the Spanish
Parliament. Now, when it has become
manifest that no elections can be held
in Cuba, and Sagasta has taken a hand
and denounced the action of Canovas
in allowing the CorteS to be dissolved
at this critical period the political chaos
that has followed is indescribable. The
Reform and Autonomist parties in Cuba
have refused to take part in a bogus
election and the reform party in Spain
talks of remaining away from the polls,
and what the outcome will be no one
can tell. 1t will not be surprising if the
Republicans, who have been gaining in
strength for some time, should improve
the opportunity to overthrow the mon
archy" j. FRANK CLARK.
WAR TALK AT MADRID.
MADRID, March 23.-Two articles
that appear in the "Epoca," which are
supposed to reflect the views of the Cab
met, have caused much comment The
first article challenges the United States
to cast aside its mask and to show its
colors. 1t says: IF America wants a
war, Spain is ready to fan 1t with dig
nifty. If war is not wanted, the Amer
lean politicians ought to desist from
their vexatious debates"
The second article reviews possible
European alliances. 1t finds fault with
them all, but leans to those countries
whose inerests are equally opposed to
the American claims.
All the Madrid papers concur in the
belief that anything would be better
than uncertainty.

next November. That is the object of
this meeting. It is useless for poll
ticians to ignore figures of the returns
that are coming in from all the States,
or to try and juggle them into anything
but an overwhelming majority for NC
Kinley.
1.-THE cry from now on until success
crowns us next November will be the
people of the United States against
bosses and bossism, with Mckinley for
our standard bearer Mckinley, the
advance agent of prosperity, the friend
of the workingmen, is the embodiment
of all that the Republican party holds
most dear. They are as follows: Honest
payment of the national debt with the
best money; Sound currency for the
peoples use
'McKinley's opponents to-day in this
city and State and the country gen
orally are the men who have debauched
and besmirched the good name of the
Republican party by fraudulent enroll
ments and primaries. His enemies are
our enemies. His friends are our
friends His principles are our prin-
ciples, the eternal principles of the Re-
publican party, and with him as our
leader our success is assured"
General Swayne received a most en-
thusiastic greeting. He denounced ring
politics. and said Mckinley was against
the machine. Governor Mortons name
was Kissed once when General Swayne
mentioned it, but the speaker quickly
repreSSed the kissing, and said that
Governor Morton had rendered valuable
service to the State. He said he had
hoped that the name of Governor Nor
ton would go before the national con-
vention without any opposition, but
that hope could no longer be sustained,
and that Mckinley was the choice of
the country. THE voice of the coun-
try" said he, sis for Mckinley, and it
is not an unwise thing for us to sup
port him.
The name of Governor Mckinley was
received with the greatest enthusiasm
and was cheered again and again.
General Swayne then introduced SEN
ator Frank D. Pavey, who gave briefly
the history of the Republican party and
its most prominent leaders, and then
told how William Mckinley was intro
duced to the ranks of the Union soldiers
by General Fremont, and Nick inley's
career to the present time
Among the other speakers were the
Hon. George e. Matthews of Buffalo
and A. HI. Steele, Deputy Collector Of
Customs.

club brought the meeting to close.

LoVERN ATTEMPTS SUICIDE.
The Man Who Planned the Train Rob-

berry Tries to Take His own Life.
VISALIA, March 23.-Si Lovern. the
man accused of having planned the at
tempted train-robbery near Tulare
early last Thursday morning, which re-
suited in the death of outlaw Dan Nc
Call, attempted to commit suicide to-
night in the County Jail.
To-day his lawyer requested that a
razor be allowed him so that he might
shave, and the officers permitted him
TO have it. At s o'clock loud knocking
was heard on the inside of the iail. but
as the inmates make a great deal OF
noise, little attention was paid to it.
The noise grew so loud and long-con-
tinued that Deputy Hafiey went inside
to have it stopped, and was informed
that 81 Lovern had hurt himself Sew
eral officers who had been standing out
side rushed to Lovern's cell, and found
the accused man lying on the floor COW
cred with blood. He had cut his throat
with the razor
A physician was summoned, and the
wounded man taken out into the corri-
dor. Before the doctor arrived Lovern
was asked why he attempted to kill
himself. He said he was innocent, and
did not want to be hanged All he had
ever done for the boys" was mere ia
Vors, and he had never done anything to
justify the people in talking about him
the way they did. He said the people
should not hang innocent men, Ardell.
as well as himself, was innocent
When DR.. Patterson arrived he found
that the wound was about five inches
long, and was in the angle between the
jaw and the neck. 1t severed both ex-
ternal jugular veins, but the wound was
not quite deep enough at the extremes
to catch the carotid arteries. The man
had lost fully three pounds of blood.
The doctor closed the gaping wound
with twenty stitches.
The chances tonight are very much
against Lovern's recovery. He is al
most pulseless. When asked if he
wanted to get well he replied in the
negative. He wanted to bid the boys
all good-by.
Lovern's act seems to have been the
result of fear of lynching. Charles
Ardell, his accomplice, said that they
fully expected an attack on the jail at
any moment.

BURNED TO DEATH.
Fate of an Aged Man Who Slept in a
stable Office

SAN DIEGO. March 23.-George
Kendallson. about % years old, who has
for some time worked around Mason's
stables at 1119 NJ street, was fatally
burned last night. He went to bed in
the stable office and left lamp burn
ing by the side of his cot at 1920
o'clock
A man passing by saw flames inside
the building and rushed in. He found
Kendallson lying helpless in the midst
of the fire, and stupid from fright The
fire was quickly extingulshed but not
before Kendallson was fatally burned.
All the skin was burned from his hands
and his head and breast were also badly
injured.
As soon as a doctor could be sum-
moned the man was taken to rooms
across the street, where his wounds
were dressed. Kendallson had for
years been partially paralyzed in one
side of his body, and this no doubt pre-
vented his escaping from the fire when
he first awoke. He has no relatives
SO far as known. He died at l o'clock
