GEN. LEE SOON TO QUALIFY.
He Will Have to Stay in Havana Dur
Ing the Fever Season.

1t is not known when Gen. FitZhugh Lee
will assume the duties of consul general at
Havana, but it is believed there Will not be
much further delay in the matter. Gen
Lee Is now in Richmond arranging his pri-
vate affairs, it is slid, for a prolonged alb
sence from home. 1t Is assumed that he
VIII visit this city in the course of the next
few days in order to confer with the
officials Of the State Department and re-
ceive final instructions for mis- guidance at
the Cuban capital. The President signed
his commission several days ago, and it is
row at the State Department awaiting his
convenience. A blank form Of oath of office
and blank form of bond, to each of which
he must subscribe, have been mailed to him
at his home in order to facilitate his reg
ular installation into office. 1t is therefore
possible that he may qualify before he
comes to the capital. Now that his COM
mission has been issued he can qualify at
any time place before any officer author
iZed to administer an oath. 1t Is believed
however, that he will defer such action
until his arrival in this city.
Meanwhile Consul General Williams will
remain on duty at Havana until notified by
the State Department that he can be prop
erly excused from further service at the
Cuban capital
Gen. Lees delay in reporting for duty has
revived the report that he will decline the
appointment, on the ground that residence
in Havana during the approaching wet sea-
son would jeOpardiZe his life. He is a large,
stout man, of full habit, and it is said his
friends are afraid he would fall an easy
victim to the dreaded fever that prevails
in Cuba during the summer months. Were
it not for the fact that the existing po-
litical conditions in Cuba require the con-
slant presence of a United States official
having diplomatic functions, the absence of
Gen. Lee during the entire summer season
could be easily arranged. 1t is felt. how
ever, that Gen. Williams is entitled to q
Gnaa1v % Ct In
case, therefore, it is found that Gen Lee
Goes not feel equal to a summers sojourn
on the Queen of the Antilles it will soon be-
come necessary to select some one else for
the duty.
The matter cannot be entirely cleared up
until Gen. Lee is heard from. AS already
stated, he is expected mere within the next
few days.

COL. LUDLOW'S ASSIGNMENT,
No Protest Against 1t by the Light
House Board.

report was current at the Capitol yes
terday and today that the light house
loard had protested against the assignment
Of Col. VIM. Ludlow TO duty in charge of
the third light house district, with station
at New York, on the ground that his
previous record In that service was not Of
the best. Several years ago Col. Ludlow
had trouble with the board ever the cree
tiCn Of lights iE St. Mary's river, while he
vas in charge OF that light house district
and the result was that he was relieved
from duty. He was charged with insub-
ordination in having, it is alleged, willfully
ignored the specific orders OF the board
So far as can be learned there is no other
basis for the present report. The detail
as made at the request of Col. Ludlow hy
the Secretary of War, with the kncwledge
and approval of the Secretary of the Treas
Try. Tie light house service is under the
Treasury Department, and the Secretary of
that department is cA-Cfficio chairman of
the light house board. A Star reporter
today visited the offices of the Secretary
of War; Secretary Of the Treasury, chief
of engineers (Col. Ludlow's immediate su-
per.cr) and the light house board for in

THE LOUISIANA ELECTION
What E1-Representative Boatner Says Of
the Status of Affairs.
He Thinks There VIII BE a Majority
for the Democrats in the
State Legislature.

Judge Charles J. Boatner of Louisiana
was on the floor of the House yesterday,
having arrived from Louisiana.
What is the status of affairs in your
state?' Star reporter asked him.
Just before 1 left there Saturday l talk
cd with Chairman Parker OF. the democratic
committee, and he was sure the democrats
would have a majority joint ballot IN
the legislature There was certain ma
jorty Saturday of five, but Senator Blanch-
ard informs me that since then returns have
been received from several parishes which
make a sure majority of niTe. The face of
the returns shows that Gov. Foster has been
elected by majority of over 2OOO0. 1t is
hoped by the combination of republicans,
populists and Citizens League to go behind
the face of the returns and declare Pharr
elected. bit with a democratic majority in
the Legislature this cannot be done. The
legislature counts the votes as returned
and declares the result. An attempt to so
behind the returns and throw out certain
parishes has never been made before and
Will not be made this time.
rs there any chance for the combination
to unseat any of the democratic members
CT the legislature?''
No, there is no chance for this. Col.
Peter TreZevant the clerk of the house, is
a regular democrat. and he will make up
the roll of the house. He can be depended
on
Judge Boatner said that Gov. Foster
would be inaugurated at Baton Rouge May
II. Asked if Capt. Pharr and his followers
would attempt to carry out their threats of
marching on the state capitol and taking it
by force, Judge Boatner answered.: Il have
rot the slightest idea that any such at
tempt will be made
A special election has not been ordered to
fill the vacant seat in the House formerly
occupied by Judge Boatner. The election
Will be ordered after the Inauguration of
the recently elected governor. The election
" as not held al the time of the recent cleo
ton because it was feared Judge Boatner's
sound money views would hurt the dem
Ccratc ticket. The free silver sentiment is
strong and it was difficult to keep many
silver democrats in line for the regular
ticket.
Representative RObinsOn's Views.
Representative Robinson of louisiana
that the claims that Pharr is elected gov
ernor do not amount to anything. Foster,
the democratic candidate" he says, lis
elected by twenty-seven thousand major
ity. We have a majority in both branches
cf the legislature, and, of course, major
ty joint ballot. Senator Blanchard has
the inside track for reelection to the Sen
ate. Other candidates will probably appear,
but l think Blanchard will be reelected.
The ballotirg for Senator will occur on
Tuesday following he meeting of the leg
islatG in May.
There has been no canvass on the finan-
cial question, but Louisiana is undoubtedly
for the free coinage of silver. Whether
there VIII be a divided delegation is un-
certain, but the majority will surely be
for silver"

MAUPIN LAW UPHELD.
Decision by the Virginia Court o
Appeals.

Appeals.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
RICHMOND, Va, April 2o.-In the court
of appeals today an opinion was handed
down in the case of lacey VS.. Palmer
sheriff of Alexandra. This fis the case
which was made test of the Maupin law
against gambling, enacted at the last ses-
sion Of the legislature. The opinion is by
Judge James Keith, president of the court,
and is a very elaborate document, covering
twenty pages Of typewriter foolscap.
dhe first point decided is whether the law
is contrary to the constitution and whether
the law is ineffec tive because of the title
embracing more in the act than the title
indicates.
The court holds that the law is operative
and is valid in infiicting penalties for vio-
lations of the law in making bets or wagers
known as pool selling"
The opinion concludes: F'or the 1ore-
going reasons we are of opinion,
First, That on account'of the insufficient
cy of the title of the act slnder considera-
tion, pool-selling is the only form of bet Or
wager that is made punishable;
Second, That there is no repeal by implt-
cation, but the two ACTS OF March b, lSH
are In full force and effect. except as here
inbefore stated;
Third. That the act under which the
warrant in this case was issued is not re-
pugnant to the Constit ution of the United
States"
Fourth: That it would be better practice
to ntate the offense with more precision
than has been here observed, especially in
view OF the fact that. justices are now
clothed with exclusive original jurisdiction
to try m;sdemeanors, and the warrant
gives to the accused the only information
as to the nature of the offense with which
he is charged.
And, lastly, that the warrant of COM
mitment under which the petitioner is held
In custody is void, because 1t was the duty
of the justice to try the ease instead of COM
court, which is without authority as a
court of original Jurisdiction as to misde-
meanors. The prisoner must be dis
charged.

SILVER IN KENTUCKY
What Reopsning the Fight Means for
Carlisle and Blackburn.
II Sound Money Wins Carlisle's Cam
Will Lose the Scnatorshfp.

The note of mo compromise sounded by
Senator Blackburn insures lively reopen
ing OF the silver fight In Kentucky. The
carlisle men annoIrce themselves ready.
They expect to profit by The terms imposed
for the selection of delegates to the state
convention. Mass county conventions are
to be held at the county seats, and this will
bring the influence Of the business men to
lear in the strongest way. The sound
money men expect to carry every district
in the state but the second.
CariisIe's Chances.
A great deal is at stake both for Mr.
Carlisle and for Mr. Blackburn. A pro-
nounced winning by the sound money men
will carry with it great ir fiuence elsewhere.
June 3 is the day for the convention and
the Chicago gathering will be nearly six
weeks distant. If Kentucky declares for
sound MOI ey and Endorses Mr.. Carlisle for
President, his candidacy in that time ought
to grow to large proportions.
What Ii Means to Blackburn.
Mr. Blackburn talks like man very
much in earnest, and surely he has full oc-
casion To be. If he loses this fight he loses
the senatorship. The democracy of the
state, 1t is held. would not be likely to de-
clare for sound money this year and vote
for free silver man for Senator next year.
His friends, therefore are expected to pre-
sent themselves in force at the state con-
Vcnton, and make the fight of this year
and next on that occasion.
Vest TO Stump for Silver.
1t is reported that MIR. Vest viii visit the
state and stump for silver. This is regard
ed As a better choice than the recent one
of Mr.. Tillman for a like purpose Mr.
Vest Is ratiNe kentuCky is an ora tOf
of the Kentucky school, and will be at

ALABAMA DEMOCRATS.
They Hope to Keep Together and wi
Victory.

Representative Richard H. Clarke, the un-
successful sound money candidate for
the democratic gubernatorial nomination Of
Alabama. IS in his seat in the House, after
a prolonged absence, spent in campaigning
in Alabama.
I'VE are going to elect the democratic
state ticket, and democratic legislature"
he said to Star reporter today. 1.-The in
dications are that there will be three tickets
in the field-the democratic ticket, headed
by Johnson; fusion of populists and fac
tion of the republicans. probably headed by
Representative Goodwin, and a straight re-
publican ticket headed by Governor Burk.
No matter how much we may differ on the
financial questions, the democrats of Ala
bama are harmonious in agreeing that the
best interests of the state require that it
shall remain under democratic control We
are altogether in support of the democratic
ticket, and will elect it fairly and trium-
phantly."

The fact that the APPROXIMATION of SO

CONVENTION PROCEEDINGS.
Intense Excitement Attendant on the
Gathering.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, April 29-Illinois'
capital city was alive at daybreak today.
Politicians, weary and worn from the strug-
giles and contentious of the last three days.
were on tie alert with the lark. but in no
mood for singing. II was all business with
them. They and the Candidates were put
ting the finishing touches on the plans
they had been mapping out for the big
fight. There was a wild scramble among
the laymen for tickets, but notwithstand-
ing the big dome building will comfortably
house near 1900 people, tickets of adms-
sion were hard to get and hard to hold
Ths bulk of the tickets were parceled out
by Chairman Jameson of the state central
committee and his lieutenants. Some of
the Mckinley men made bitter protest
upon the manrer in which tickets We're be-
ing distributed.
Every Seat Filled.
Long before the hour for calling the con-
vention tc order the vast auditorium Of the
great dome building, which attracted so
much attention at the worlds fair, was
full. Every seat was occupied. Never be-
fore in Illinois politics tas there been such
a crowd at state convention. The attend
ance, owing to the size of the hail, was in
fact, larger than that at many a national
convention.
There was not much excitement at the
beginning. There was a sort of subdued
hush, which many took as forebCGing a
violent storm. Occasionally some enthusiast
would break out with a shout for his favor
lite, but the shouting was not contagious
The vast throng seemed to be in a serious
mood, awaiting the decision whether Illi-
nois would support VIM. Mckinley, ir, of
Ohio for President of the United States, or
whether Shelby NJ. Cullom, who has been
honored with three elections to the United
States Senate, should be their choice.
