New York, May IS.-A special to the
Herald from Havana says;
The action of Consul General Will
lians in protesting against the methods
of the trial of the prisoners of the
schooner Competitor, adopted by the
Spanish authorities, is worth more than
passing mention.
Before the court martial Consul Cen
era Williams letter of protest was read.
The representative of the United States
quoted the real ties existing between
the United States and Spain, ard doubt
ed the right of the latter to try Ameri-
can citizens and others sailing under
the American flag by other than civil
laws, adding in the letter that they must
be judged by ordinary and not by mill
tary and naval courts, and be permitted
to employ legal counsel and present
witnesses in evidence.
A note by the judge advocate general,
which had also been endorsed by Ad-
miral Navarro, the highest naval officer
of Spain in Cuba, ruling Consul General
Williams protest as without good
ground and out of order, was also read
and noted.
Within four hours after the court
martial closed its session, at special
meeting in the afternoon, its members
sent to Admiral Navarro sealed YER
dict, which was Immediately approved
by the naval chief. The sentences of
all five prisoners to death, in accordance
with the verdict, were signed at once
and preparations were made to have the
men shot.
Receiving no satisfactory response
from the admiral nor even an invitation
to attend the proceedings, neither Con-
sui General Williams nor any attache of
his Office was present at the court mar
tial, nor was he allowed to see the pris-
oners until after the trial had closed.

The general told the consul-general
hat if the men had been convicted they
would be shot in the morning despite
my protest the United States might
make.

Jams, my government instructs me to
close its consulate here and demand my

New Phase of Armenian question

New York, May 2o.-A special to the
Herald from London says
II Is learned on the highest authority
that the Armenian question is about to
enter a new phase At this moment a
movement is on foot here, in Paris and
Ia Brussels in favor of a reconciliation of
the Armenians with Turkey. There is
every reason to believe this movement
has been started with the consent of the
sultan. His majesty has been wildly i'm
pressed by the regretable state of affairs
in Antolia, created by the sad events
of the past year. 1t is necessary, how
ever, that the well intentioned section
of Armenians should come forward
honestly and endeavor to forget the past
and boldly make an appeal to the per
sonal sentiments of the sultan in other
words, grasp the hand which is already
as good as rendered.
This turn of affairs would be received
with deep sense of relief among Eng
lish politicians of both parties.
