Three Cabinet Cfhccrs to Whom sident
Cleveland Delegates Bis Power.
One of the questions that puzzled that
very inquisitive visitor, Ii Hung Chang
was how this government: could posi-
bly, run along in the absence from the
national capital of most of the chief
executive officers. His traditional in
stinots and education, no matter how
FURNISHED up by intercourse with west
ern civilization, still left him associst-
ing the rule of the great Chinese empire
with the presence of the son of Heav-
en- in Picking, and carried out the same
idea in regard to the presence of the
ruler of the United States in Washing
ton. Lis embarrassment on this ques-
ton was not unreasonable, and those
he questioned on the subject were just
as unable TO satisfy his curiosity as
probably the majority Of the general
public would be. The fact Is that,
though the president of tho United
States in recent years has frequently
been absent from the capital In the
summer months, the nation Is never
left without an acting executive there.
The practice, begun by Mr.. Cleveland
during his term, and closely followed
by Mr.. Harrison. and again adopted
by Mr.. Cleveland in his second term,
has been 10 designate some special
cabinet officer as the acting executive.
He has full powers TO represent the
president in the event Of any unfore-
seen emergency arising in our relations
with anr foreign power; this power vas
notably exercised BY Secretary Blaine
in the settlement of the Italian incident
growing out of the Malta lynchings In
New Orleans.
President Cleveland has three cabinet
officers TO whom be delegates this pow
er-Secretary Olnsy, of the stste de
pertment; Secretary Carlisle. OF the
treasury. aud Secretary Lamont, OF the
war department. There han never been
q time during the long summer when
one of these three men have not been on
deck. When OIney went away, Carlisle
STAYED. Wien Carlisle weno TO- Aaina
Lamont went back II any emergency
srises calling for executive action, the
other cabine: officers consult the man
on deck. Mr.. Carlisle usually holds
these conferences al his house. and g
also does Secretary Lamont, who rare

season, and then only for few minutes
a, time. Mr. lamont Is in charge now.

English Stroke.

New Haven, Conn, Nov. Robert j.
Cook appeared at the Yale boathouse
this afternoon. This was an unusual
occurrence for this time of the year. The
cause of his visit was to give the first
lessons in the English stroke. The shell,
had the seats rugged along the sides in
stead of over the keel. The men used
English oars and rowed in the English
style. This is great change for Yale

RELIEVING BESElGED TOWNS
General Castellanns Imposed to be Doin
Wonders in Puerto Principe.


Wonders in Puerto Principe.
Havana, Cuba, Nov. General Cas-
tellanos, with reinforcements of 5000
troops from the province of Santiago de
Cuba, left his headquarters a few days
ago and advanced in the direction of
Cascorro, the town on the Nuevitas and
Guamarillo railroad which, with the city
Of Guaimara on the same road, both on
the borders of the province Of Puerto
Principe, has been besieged for long
time past by the insurgents. Cascorro
and Guaimara are both reported to have
fallen, but the former was said to have
been relieved a month ago by General
Castellanos and, according to the latest
advices from Puerto Principe, the gen.
eral in command at that place has mov-
ed with strong force to the relief of
Guiamara.
General Castellanos, a later report says
has been engaged with the insurgents I'm
der Gomez and Calixto Garcia and has
broken their formation. No details OF
the engagement, however. are obtainable
owing to the lack Of facilities for COM
municating with the Spanish troops. The
insurgents insist that the Spaniards have
sustained serious defeats in that part Of
Cuba.
Troops continue to occupy positions in
the interior. Sierra Rubi was taken by
the Spanish in the third Of the present
month.
Colonel Euentes, while accommodating
three miles in front of the positions now
occupied by the Spanish, destroyed a
number of dwellings and captured the
local insurgent prefecture. who declared
that the Cubans under Perico, Delgado
and Defas had called upon Maceo to as
sist them.
Maceo. according to signed letter,
had already passed into the territory Of
the Sierrae avoiding the columns of the
guerillas. He will reconnoiter to the east
ward and it is expected he will not stop
until the town of Rubi has been passed
He has already succeeded in burning six

wEFERs' NEW WORLDS RECORDS
Hundred Yards in :O9 3-5 and Three Hun
bred YARDS in 80 ed Seconds.

Hundred Yards in :O9 3-5 and Three Hun
dred YARDS in 80 ed Secopds.
Washington, Nov. IA red letter
chapter in the history Of amateur ath-
letics was written in Georgetown today
by Bernard J. Wefers, who beat two
worlds records, for hundred yards and
FOR three hundred yards. The first was
made in the remarkable time of 8 80 sec
onds, and the second in 80 2-5 seconds.
1t was Wefers' last appearance Of the
year, after most remarkable campaign.
The 10O-yard race was special event
and was done on the spur OF the moment.
The fact that Wefers' competitor broke
from the scratch ahead Of him, seemed
to put him on his mettle. He won the
race easily and on the impulse of the mo-
ment resolved to go over the track again,
with a view of establishing new record
if possible Without taking more than
FIVE minutes in which to recover his wind
he again took the mark and at the signal
sped away. He was wildly cheered as
he tore over the track, but probably not
one Of the great crowd believed he could
break the record. AS he snapped the
cord at the finish the timekeeper's watch
recorded 3-5 seconds, 1-5 better than he
made in the interna tional competition in
New York year ago last summer. The
timers announcement was greeted with
wild cheering.
When the SO0-yard race was announced
Wefers won the scratch. This time he
had Julius Walsh and McAyery as pace
:nakersand an escort of Georgetown ath-
letes and students. At the finish Wet
ers was about ten feet behind Walsh
and made the run in 30 20, thus beating
his and the worlds record by 1-5 Of a
second. 40
The track at Georgetown has the dis.
advantage of curve, in addition to be-
ing trifle slow, and it is said by aus
thorities on athletics that on a straight
away track Wefers could have made this
last run in 80 seconds.
