'The directors of the New Haven Water

REFORMS FOR CUBANS.
Spanish Minister Says His Govern
INERT Intends to be Very
Generous.

Washington, d. c., May 15.-The
Spanish minister here has acquainted the
secretary of the navy with the tenor
of reforms which the Spanish govern
ment proposes to make in the admins
tration of affairs in Cuba and the
subject has been earnestly discussed be-
tween them.
The minister states that liberal as were
the measures of reform held out to the
Cubans in the act of the Cortes of
March, 1895. which were prevented from
gong into operation, as he contends, sole
ly by reason of the actions of the sep
aratlsts, they are surpassed in generosity
by the terms of the new act to which
the Queen Regent alluded in her speech
from the throne at the recent opening of
the sessions of the Cortes
In the Spanish view, Cuba, under the
operation of the terms of this act. would
enjoy measure of autonomy compare
bic to that enjoyed by the Dominion of
Canada. The principal obstacle to the
immediate application of these reforms
to the island lies in the indisposition of
the Spanish government to be placed in
the position of being obliged by fear of
the rebels to make these concessions, but
there is reason to believe that this point
may be yielded and the measure applied
shortly if it can be shown, perhaps
through the good offices of the United
States, that the Spanish government
may do this without the least reflection
upon the honor of the nation.

the verdict to the clerk, who read as fol-

'.We. the jury, find the defendant,
Scott Jackson. guilty OF murder IN the
first degree and fix his penalty at DEATH
The judge had previously announced
that no demonstration of approval or dis
approval by the spectators would be per-
mitted.
Deputies were placed throughout the
room with instructions to bring before
the court any person disobeying this in
struction, to be punished for contempt.
Consequently the verdict was heard with
silence, but Immediately upon the adj
journment of court the spectators rushed
to the jurors and shook their hands
heartily They also shook each other by
the hand showing hearty approval of the
verdict of the jury.
Jackson himself received his doom
with no manifestation of emotion except
ashen paleness of the face. None of his
relatives were present. The aged 1ather
of Pearl Bryan and her brother Fred
Bryan were present when the verdict
was rendered.
The usual motion for new trial was
made and then jackson was taken away

half dozen or more officers when the
jury came in and went out under their
protection, although there was no dem
onstration to indicate a necessity for so
much care. The general impression is
