CHICAGO, May S.-Chairman Harrity, OF
the Democratic national committee with S.
P. Sherin, of Indiana; J. G. Prather, OF
Missouri T. H. Sherley, of Kentucky, and
Ben T. Cable, of Illinois, all members of the
subcommittee of the national committee,
came to Chicago today and went into ses-
sion at the Wellington hotel. They were
Joined at noon by Joseph Donnersberger and
A. A. Goodrich, Of the local committee. Mr.
Donnersberger handed a check to Mr.. Har-
rty for SIS 600, which with the $4,000 al
ready paid, makes $4,000, leaving only $15,-
600 yet to be paid.
when you visit us next said Mr.. Dom
nersberger, ''the account will be cleared"
An agreement was come to by which an
other meeting of the subcommittee will be
held at the Auditorium toward the end of
the month, when Mr.. Donnersberger will
hand over the final check. After all this
had been satisfactorily arranged, Mr.. Har-
rity said. "All talk about the national con-
vention being held in some city other than
Chicago is bosh. There was not syllable in
the letter l wrote to the members of the
local committee few days ago on which
such a rumor could possibly have been
based"
After the financial affairs had been ad-
justed, the committee, in conjunction with
Col. Martini of st. Louis, sergeant arms
of the convention, and F. c. Canda, the Coli
scum architect, listened to suggestions for
telegraphic arrangements from representa-
tives of the Western Union and Postal Tele-
graph companies. Mr. Canda also submitted
a report in reference to the plan of seating
delegates and the audience. Col. Martin had
a report, too, in regard to assistant-ser-
geants- arms.
Dealing with the telegraphic and seating
arrangements Chairman Harrity appointed
Mr. Prather and Mr.. Sherley as a commit
tee to accompany the representatives of the
telegraph companies and Mr.. Canda and Mr..
Martin to the Coliseum with view to COM
ing to an understanding.

PARADISE FOR FISHERMEN.

BruIe River and Lake st. Croix Well
Stocked With the Ffnny Tribe.
Special to the Globe.
SUPERIOR, Wis, May 8.-The fishing re-
sorts in this vicinity, especially those on the
Brule river and Lake st. Croix, are gaining
rapidly in popularity mong the pleasure
seekers of Chicago, Milwaukee, st. Paul.
Minneapolis and other Western cities. The
season opened on April Is, and, notwith-
standing the disagreeable weather that has
been prevalent since, the club houses and
hotels at Brule station and White Birch have
been crowded with visitors principally from
the cities named The river Brule has at
tanned a wide reputation as a trout stream.
1t is a narrow, winding rivulet containing
many dangerous rapids, and the services of
a guide are required to pilot the tourist
safely on his expedition up or down. A per-
son unaccustomed to fishing in this stream
would probably return home somewhat fish
less If he attempted to locate the fishing
spots and do the catching without receiving
a pointer from any one who knows all about
the habits of the speckled luxuries. But a
novice under the direction of an experienced
guide, can hook trout to his hearts content
and enjoy the novelty of shooting rapids in
a row boat. White Birch is the popular re-
sort for pleasure-seekers, who prefer fishing
upon the placid waters of Lake st. Croix, to
the perilous excursions of the Brule.
At this place there is a well-appointed club
house. or hotel, which is conducted in first
class style. The location of the building, on
knoll, overlooking the beautiful body Of
water, is charmingly picturesque and strik-
ingly convenient for patrons. There are also
several rustic lodges or places where visitors
can be provided with edibles and lodging
fishing tackle, etc. White Birch is thirty-ive
miles south of Superior ON the Omaha line
Arrangements are being made for an exeur-
sion train service from the head of the lake
and from st. Paul and Minneapolis every Sat
urday, returning Sunday night.

PULITZER FOR CLEVELAND.
He VIII support Him Under Certain
Conditions.

LONDON, May S-The Chronicle will to-
morrow print an extended interview with
Joseph, Pulitzer, the proprietor of the New
York World, filling two columns of that pa
per. In the course of the interview Mr..
Pulitzer gives brief history of the events
which led to President Clevelands famous
Venezuelan message, which, he says was
election movement. Mr.. Pulitzer expressed
the belief that the present Venezuelan COM
mittee in the United States would pave the
way fer the settlement of the controversy be-
tween England and Venezuela. He also ex-
pressed an absolute certainty that. Cuba would
become free. Maj. Mckinley, he said, was
certain to be the Republican candidate for
the presidency. Continuing, Mr.. Pulitzer re-
ferred to the possibility of President Cleve-
lands running for a third term as follows:
"If President Cleveland declares for sound
money, for free Cuba, against monopolies
and trusts and in favor of tariff reform l
shall give him all the support in my power"

DRUM HEAD TRIAL.
Competitor Prioners before
SPANISH Court-MartiaI.

Spanish Court-MartiaI.
HAVANA, May S.-The trial by court mar
tiaI of the men captured on board the Amer
lean schooner Competitor, at Key West, by
the Spanish gunboat Mensajera, began in
the court of justice at the navy yard here
shortly before o'clock this morning. The
first to enter the court room was Alfredo
Laborde, who is classed as the leader OF the
filibustering expedition. After Laborde came
DR.. Elias Bedia, man named John Milton,
said to be q native Of Kansas; William Gill
dea. said to be British subject and Theo-
dcro Mate. The prosecutor opened the pro-
ceedings by describing In detail the capture
of the Competitor. Alfredo Laborde was the
first Of the prisoners to be examined. La
borde testified that he was thirty-nine years
of age and that he came from New orleans
He said he left Key West with twenty-tour
passengers, who, at Cape Sable, obliged him
to mt in towards shore and forced him to
take on board arms, ammunition and ex-
nlosjyes saving they would transfer this
material to a steamer, which would meet
them at sea- The vessel. Laborde added,
landed on the coast of Cuba eventually, and
he remained on board the Competitor. He
did not fire. on the Spanish gunboat, al
though the men on shore did so.
All of the other prisoners made statements
to the effect that they were not voluntarily
connected with a filibustering expedition.
Hamilton, when called, said he was going as
a. newspaper correspondent to the insurgent
camp to interview the members OF the IN
surgent government. He afterwards INTENDED
to return to the United States.
The prosecutor classed all the prisoners as
traitors and as assisting in the insurrection.
The schooner he said. was pirate worth
about $4,000, and having on board an in
surgent flag valued at one cent. He denied
that Mata could be considered friend OF
Spain, as he was treated on board the schoon-
er in the same manner as the other members
of the expedition.
The prosecution finally read the formal act
of accusal, declaring the prisoners to be fill
busters captured in state OF rebellion
against the Spain government Therefore, In
the name of the king of Spain, the prose-
cutor asked that the death sentence be i'm
posed on all the prisoners. Admiral Ma
varo approved of the death sentence being
imposed The court martial adjourned for
the day shortly after 12 o'clock without hav-
ing arrived at judgment on the cases be-
fore them.

INDIANAPOLIS, May ST. T. Roots, the
indianapolis politician, who presided at the
greater part CT yesterdays convention, and
who is very close to the ex-president, today
made the following statement in regard to the
Significance of his action:
1.-The question has been frequently asked,
what significance attaches to Mr.. Harrison's
absence from the convention? In answering,
it may be said his absence is a confirmation
of his statement: There never has. been an
hour since l left the White house that de-
sired to return to it,, and further frees him
from the charge that might have been made
-insincerity. In answer to the question,
What is the effect Of the resolution instruct
ing for Mckinley Z? it can be truly said it must
be beneficial for all concerned First, it is a
truthful reflection of the sentiment of the vot-
ers of Indiana concerning Mckinley, which
has crystallized since Mr.. Harrison's letter of
February last, and if the unexpected should
happen at st. Louis, and there should be
call for the ex-president, he would be in po-
sition to accept such call, and the followers
of Mckinley would become the supporters of
Gen. Harrison, since Indiana, in no uncertain
terms, has instructed and declared for Nc
Kinley at ther state convention"

The Court Martial of the Competitor
Prisoners Adjourned Without

WASHINGTON, May s-The proceedings
of the Spanish court martial in the case OF
the men captured ON the schooner Competitor
are being closely followed here, and there
is ground for belief that unless the matter
is handled with great discretion it may re-
suit In straining the present friendly rela-
tions between the United States and Spain.
Strong representations have been made to
the state department on the subject, and
the department certainly will not fail to inter-
vene In the case II it shall appear that any
Americans under trial are not accorded the
privileges accorded by the rules of civilized
warfare. An insistence on this point would
oblige the department to refuse to sanction
the execution of the Americans. and. although
it is not believed that there is a disposition
to carry the case to extremes. there is some
danger that the Spaniards may feel dis
posed to go further than prudence permits
in the effort to discourage American fill
buster parties by harsh treatment of these
men, the first to fall into their hands.

WARNINGS PERIL.
The Politicians Have Been Cunning
for His ScaID.

BALTIMORE, May 8.-The sessions of the
National Municipal league convention closed
today. Col. George E. Waring New York
city's street cleaning commissioner, in speak
ing of ''the necessity of excluding politics
from municipal government entertained the
delegates by an amusing history of how he
got his present position and what he had
done SINCE He said he was originally Of
fered the place by a member of the Demo-
cratic national committee, and said he would
accept it with the understanding that he
should have his own way. Subsequently
Mayor Strong appointed him on these terms
and has never interfered with him. He de-
tailed his experience with the politicians and
asserted that Mayor Strong had received ISL
sets of resolutions asking for his removal.
The politicians had come to his way of think
ing. however, and he had received assurance
from Tammany's "big four" that he should
be retained in the event of a Tammany vic
tory. In conclusion, he asserted that the
street cleaning department of New York was
now strictly non-partisan and a shining ex-
ample of the efficacy of divorcing politics
from municipal government.
