ter Lowe, the young man who has been

Being Closely Watched

WASHINGTON, May S.-The pro-
ceedings 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
the fear that unless the matter is ham
died with great discretion it may re-
suit in straining the present friendly
and amicable relations between the
United States and Spain. Strong rep
reservations have been made to the
state department on the subject and
the department certainly will not fail
to intervene if 1t should appear that at
least all the Americans among the cap
tives under trial are not treated with
all the privileges accorded by the rules
of civilized warfare. An insistence on
this point would oblige the department
to refuse 10 sanction the execution of
the Americans And although it is not
believed yet there is a disposition to
carry the case to extremes, there is
some danger that the Spanish may feel
disposed TO go further than prudence
permits in the effort to discourage
American filibustering parties by harsh
treatment Of these, the first to fall into
their hands.

DUTCH RECORDS.
An Examination of Them to Their
Rearing Upon the boundary Con-
trOVersy.

WASHINGTON. May S.-Prcfessor
George Burr, holding the chair of his
tory at Cornell university, who has
been working in Washington under the
direction of the Venezuelan boundary
committee for the past two months, as
special historical expert, sails tomor-
row from New York for Holland for the
purpose of making an examination of
the Dutch records bearing upon the
boundary controversy. The special
reason why the commission desires to
have these archives examined is that
reference is made to them in a general
way in the British blue book and by
historians. without specifically desig-
mating the particular documents upon
which the statements of the blue book
anG Of the historians rest. 1t is there
fore deemed important to see the orig
inal documents.
With respect to the Spanish archives,
no definite action as yet has been taken
as they stand on a somewhat different
basis. The blue book gives extracts
from them specifying the volumes from
which they are taken. The Venezue-
Ian government is also having pre-
pared translations OF a large number
of certified comics of documents from
these archives, and not until these doc
Unlents have been presented to the
commission and it has had AN oppor-
tunity to examine them will it be pos
sihle to say what course the commits
sion will pursue.
The commission has employed Prof
Jameson, filing the chair of history at
Brown university, Rhode Island, as
historical expert. and he has arrived
in Washington and already been set
at work upon some of the historical
questions I'm der investigation.

Supt. Smith, like most scientific per-

Paine's celery compound is the only
genuine spring remedy worthy of that
name, in the opinion of Supt Smith.
He writes:
WASHINGTON. D. c., March 4, 1896.
Conference.-The female members of
my household are more than delighted
with Paine's celery compound. I learn
from other friends that it's popularity
is steadily growing. It aids digestion,
and in view of the prevalence of dys-
pepsia, it is one of the benefactions of
the age. Very respectfully,
VIM. R. SMITH,
Supt. U. S. Botanic Garden.
Paine's celery compound is as far re-
moved as the poles from the many
trivial, unscientific preparations that
call themselves spring remedies. 1t
has earned the complete confidence of
men and women the world over.

MILWAUKEE, May S.-The effort of
the common council to end the strike
of the Milwaukee electric railway en-
ployees has failed, and tonight the
special committee appointed TO medi-
ate, reported it's inability to end the
troubles. The company refused to re-
cognize the union, re-employ strikers
or grant any other concessions, and
the union stood by it's original de-
rrrarDds In the meantime the riotous
demonstrations by sympathizers con-
tinued. Cars were stoned, rails torn
UP and wires cut About fifteen arrests
were made today. The situation rs
growing more critical and the police
expect serious trouble tomorrow night
and Sunday. The feeling against the
company is bitter and the authorities
look for an attempt to destroy prop
erty.

The prosecutor was Lieutenant Mi

work the members of the court assem-
bled in the chapel of the navy yard and
reverently witnessed the celebration of
mass, going thence directly to the court
of Justice where many other officers
had assembled. A guard of picked ma
rine infantry soldiers then brought in
the prisoners.
The first to enter the court room was
Alfredo Laborde who is classed as the
leader of the flibustering expedition.

headed for that part of the coast, and
when within hailing distance of the
schooner. called upon her to show her
colors. The schooner did not do so,
and men on board Of her jumped over
board and swan for the shore. Two
of the latter were seen to go down,
and others may have been drowned. In
addition, two more of the so-called fill
ibusterers were killed by the rife fire
of the crew of the gunboat while try
ing to reach the shore.

The Herald's correspondent in Ma

before evacUating the city, destroyed

deal of private property.
The insurrectionists also destroyed
the municipal archives, tortured sew

money from partisans of President
Zelaya. Many arrests were made by

NO JUDGMENT.

Lieutenant Pardo, for the defense,
said he did not consider the prisoners
should be treated as being all equally
guilty. For instance, he said, it
seemed clear that Laborde and Bedia
were more guilty than Milton and
Gildea, and that Milton was only
guilty of excessive zeal in trying to
obtain information.
The court-martial adjourned for the
day shortly after IL o'clock, without
