GUILTY OF EMBEZZLEMENT
II. II. Worrell Convicted in the Justice Court
Yesterday

Bef ore Justice Owens yesterday H. II.
Worrell was tried on a charge of mis-
demeanor embezzlement and bya jury was
prom pity found guilty as charged. Wor-
rell worked as agent for the American
Wringer company and sold clocks, rugs.
curtains, silverware and household goods
generally on the installment plan. He ap-
parently sold large amount OF goods and
was considered a fine agent. Finally Mr..
Turner the manager OF the firm. became
suspicious and instituted an investigation.
He found that Worrell had in reality dis
posed of the goods. but that many of the
leases turned in were bogus, and that in
stead of being delivered to purchasers the
stuff was in pawnshops all over town.
Worrell's arrest followed and q charge
OF felony embezzlement was preferred,
but later changed to misdemeanor. On
this he has been convicted and will be SEN
fenced on May at 10 a. m. Attorney NJ.

A Compromise Agreed on by
the Committee
COMMERCIAL ExIGENCIES
Demand TeIegraphic Communica tion
With Hawaii
Colonel Spauiding's Concession Is Regarded
BY Senators as an Opportunity Which
Should Be Improved
Associated Press Special Wire.

Associated Press Special Wire.
WASHINGTON, May 6.-The senate
committee on foreign relations today
agreed to compromise on the bill for a
cable to Hawaii and Japan. The bill
authorizes the postmaster general to
enter into a contract on behalf of the
United States with any company which
may lay cable, to pay a subsidy not
exceeding s1eo,OoO year. The bill has
the support Of Senator Morgan and all
the Republican members of the commit
tee, Messrs. Gray, Turpie. Daniel, and
Mills, Democrats, opposed the bill.
Senator Frye reported the action of
the committee to the senate, and in the
accompanying report says that a cable
to Hawaii Is demanded by the exigen-
cies Of commerce. He recites the fact
that while other nations have been ac-
auiring islands in the Pacific. Hawaii
by common consent, has been left to the
United States. Reference is also made
to the Importance Of Pearl harbor and
the necessity Of having telegraph COM
munication with the islands in case of
war, to handle the Pacific heet. 1t Is
also said that this Is q favorable opper-
tunity to secure teleEraphic communi-
cation not only with Hawaii but also
win Japan. whose system connects with
says the report, Is brought within reach
upon terms that relieve the United
States from the cost ana risk Of main
tenance as we'll as from the aspects Of
commercial venture. The price il lin-
ited for private messages to Japan to
almost one-third Of what Is now charged
while communication with Hawaii is
provided at ten cents per word more
than the price which competition has
established for messages crossing the
Atlantic. This opportunity the COM
rnittee credits to Col. Spaulding's Ha-
waiian concession. The report dwells
upon the economic and strategic impor-
tance of the cable. Referring to the
latter point it says:
The extent to which the interests of
the nation as such are involved, may be
seen by the fact that every teleSraphic
cable now crossing the Atlantic from
North America has it's starting point
in Novia Scotia In the event of any
severance of peaceful relations with
channel would Of course be Immediately
and as it were, automatically, closed,
and we would be dependent for tele-
graphic communication on cables cross
ing the Atlantic from Erazil to Portugal,
with all the contingencies that the sit
uation would involve"
The committee says the cost of the
cable would be IS, 100000, and that the
interest on the expenditure would
amount to s5se.ooo per year for the first
five years. The committee says that the
bill has been made to provide that the
arrangements shall be made by con-
tracts with the United States through
the postmaster general and the lowest
bidder, and shall be completed and con-
tinue under the supervision Of that off,
Ger. The contract relation is believed to
secure the United States better control
than a mere grant would do, while it
is accepted by the committee as given to
the grant an aspect of stability.

TAKES IMMEDIATE EFFECT
Thirty Thousand Positions Under Civil
Service Protection
Practically All Government Employees Above
the Grade Of Laborer Must Stand
the Test of Examination
Associated Press Special Wire.

WASHINGTON, May 6.-Almost So
900 government employees were brought
at one sweep under the protection of the
civil service today by the issuance of
an order by President Cleveland MAX
ing a general revision of the civil SER
vice rules. The order is the most i'm
pprtant since the Inauguration Of the

takes effect Immediately. Its practical
extent is the classification of all gov
ernment employees below the rank of
those subject to nomination by the Pres
ident and confirmation by the senate,
and above the grades of laborers and
workmen, with a few exceptions. The
order has long been in contemplation,
and it's promulgation this afternoon Is
the result of an immense amount of cor
respondence and conference between
the president, the civil service commits
sioners and the heads Of the various de-
partments
1t is stated at the civil service commits
sion office that the rules add 29.399 posi-
tions to the classified list, increasing

reduced from a09s to 1I5, being mainly

postal and internal revenue service. In
dians employed in minor capacities in
the Indian service are necessarily put in
the excepted list. Almost all of the post
tions in Washington, which have here
tofore been excepted. have been includ-
ed in the competitive list. The only
classified position in Washington which
will be excepted from examination ur-
der the new rules will be private secre-
taries or confidential clerks (not ex.
ceeding two) to the president and to the

There is tremendous excitement

the Bermuda has landed her arms and
men on the northern coast. She was
pursued by Spanish man-of-war. but
was too fast to be caught. The Spanish
commanders seem to realize the danger
of having to face machine guns handled
by trained American artilerymen.
Captain General Weyler is beginning to
to appreciate the fact that his trocha
is bringing his military reputation into
ridicule. General Maceo ignores it and
refuses to attack it, for the simple rea-
son that he desires to remain in Pinar
