ELECTIONS IN CUBA.
How They Are Regarded by Cuban Au-
Economists In Madrid.
NEW YORK, March 16.-A Herald
dispatch from Madrid says:
Members of the Cuban autonomist
party resident in Madrid state that
their followers have come to no under
standing with the Cuban constitutional
union party regarding the elections.
On the contrary. they assert that they
have not received the least word.
They announce as probable that the
directive junta of their party has
adopted decisive attitude upon this
point. 1t is evident that the elections
in the island have not been satisfactory.
The belief prevails that the present
government will encounter difficulties
in solving the problem.
General dissatisfaction was express
sed here in political and ministerial
circles regarding the unsatisfactory
news from Havana that the Insurgents
had re- e-entered the province of Pinar
del Rio. The success of the insurgents
is considered severe blow at the mill
tary tactics of the Spanish army.
At a meeting in Barcelona yesterday
400 members of the military club
passed vote of confidence in General
Azcaraga, and offered to return to
active service en- masse without expec-
tation of pay or promotion.

placed in shape at once. This is prac'
tically adding two new schools to the
list. There never has been IA school
at Mana, while the one at Halawa was
closed years ago.
A Chinaman made application for
permission to open II school on Hotel

would be issued if it was shown that
his pupils would be within the school
age.
The matter of the new school houses
came up. 1t was thought best and
finally decided to go ahead and re-
ceive tenders for all the new school
houses and improvements on the list.
There are about six of the former and
several cottages. Plans will at once
be prepared and tenders invited.

Twenty-four Hours.
New York Worldly

(New York WORLDLY
Japan has a police force modelled
something after the French system. In
various places throughout Toxic there
are small kobanchos which are some
thing like American patrol boxes, but
larger. Three men are attached to
each box daily. One remains inside
resting, while another stands at the
door and the third patrols beat and
returns at regular intervals to the box.
Stations are changed each eight hours.
After twenty-four hours work the
three policemen are given the same
length of time to rest, and three other
men are sent to the box.
During their "off" days the men are
employed in taking a census, making
reports regarding the conditions of
streets, bridges, embankments, drains,
cemeteries, etc.
They also report weddings, births,
deaths, theatrical performances and
the presene of suspicious people.

SHOOTING UP CHICAGO.

CHICAGO, July 11.-Three men in n
buggy drawn by gray horse created
reign of terror on the north side OF
the city tonight. They drove through
the streets emptying their revolvers
in the air, and now and then making
things lively by firing at people whom
they passed. During their ride they
shot three men, one fatally. The po-
lice started after the maraHders, but
could not find them until after mid
night, when Sergeant Sauer saw three
men in buggy drawn by gray horse
enter an alley. He followed them, and
as soon as he appeared at the entrance
to the alley the men fired at him. Not
a word was uttered by the men or the
officer. All three bullets struck Sauer
and he cannot possibly live. The men
made their escape and there is no
clew to their identity.

AGES AT WHICH PEOPLE DIE.

Some interesting statistics regarding
the public mortality in England and
Wales have been recently collected by
j. Holt Schooling. He finds that the
rate Of death for those two countries
is a little more than one minute, or
1900 n day.
AS regards the age at which death
occurs, Mr.. Schooling's figures prove
that a larger number die in the decade
OF sixty-fiye to seventy-four, inclusive,
than any other, exclusive of that of one
to nine In his division the percent
age of mortality of the age group
under five years is 37.4, exceeding that
in the divisions from five to fifty-four,
inclusive, and ffty-five to eighty-tive
and upward. Nearly one-half-to be
exact, 46.9 per cent-of the deaths oc-
cur under twenty-five years of age.
After that the percentages by decades

RECEIVERS ASKED FOR.
AGAIN HEAR ARGUMENT IN THE
GAS SUIT.

JUDGES WALES AND DALLAS
AGAIN HEAR ARGUMENT IN THE
GAS SUIT.
In the United States Court this morn
ing Judges Wales and Dallas heard
argument in the suit of Cod
frey Morse ct al. and the Fidelity
Insurance, Trust and Safe Deposit
Company, Of Philadelphia.
3. J.. NJ. Tower, of Boston, opened
the case for the bondholders. Other
counsel for the complainantsa are Samuel
Dickson, of Philadelphia, and j. II.
Hoffecker, Jr.. of this city. Senator
George Gray, II. Fl. Ward and Colonel
j. II. Benton appeared for the Bay
State Gas Company. Parke Chandler
and II. G. Andrews, of New York, and
several local lawyers were interested
spectators.
Mr.. Tower reviewed the doings of the
company from its Incorporation, and
cited the doings of each Individual
company in the bill of complaint He
then read the bill on complaint which
occupied the attention of the court dur
ing the hearing.
A contention arose between counsel
as to whether il were necessary to read
the exhibition based upon the bill OF
complaint. Judge Dallas decided that
it was unnecessary. Mr.. Tower then
resumed reading.
James II. HOffecker read the affi-
davits of w. e. Dillaway, regarding the
conversation he had with William Blu.
chanan after the last suit against the
Bay State Gas Company. In the aft
dayit, it is claimed that after the Bu
chanan VS.. Bay State Gas Company
suit, the complainant, Buchanan, re
ceived a large amount of money from
Addicks in the way Of settlement, anC
after this, Buchanan discontinued hi
suit against the company. This wal
the chief point in this affidavit.
The next one read was that of Will
liam c. Wright, who took testimony il
the last suit.
The affidavit of Michael j. Conneff,
stockholder of the company, was mex
read. It was based chiefly on the un
derstanding he had when becoming
member of the company. 1t had littl
bearing in the case
Mr.. Hoffecker was still reading whel
Judge Dallas ordered a recess until
o'clock.
