PREPARING FOR SUMMER,
Intentions Of President Cleveland
and His Advisors.

ana HIS A0y1SOFB.
Today's session Of the cabinet was devot-
ed to the consideration of legislative busi-
ness calling for action on the part of the
executive before the adjournment Of Con-
gress. All the members were in attendance
except Secretary Herbert, who is at An
hapohs. The President and all the MEM
bers of his cabinet are arranging their off,
cial affairs SO as to enable them to depart
on their summer vacations as soon as pos
sible after the adjournment of Congress.
The critical state Of our foreign relations,
however. will probably keep Secretary Oh
ney at the capital much longer than any
OF his associates except Secretary Carlisle.
who may find 1t necessary to remain at his
post almost continuously throughout the
summer for the better protection of the
governments financial interests.
1t Is expected that the President will go
TO Gray Gables almost Immediately after
the adjournment of Congress- He will es-
tablish an executive office at his summer
retreat and will transact business there in
accordance with the custom of previous
years. Recess appointments and executive
orders will be announced from the White
House usual.
1t will be so arranged that at least one
member of the cabinet will be in Washing
ton throughout the summer to represent
the President and to transact any business
that may be found necessary.
1t Is not likely that the President will re-
turn to this city until October next, unless
sooner called here by the exigencies of pub
lie business.

Yesterday was pension day and the veter-
ans who got in their vouchers early got
their money in time to spend ii last night
while others did not get their money until
today While the saloons in the vicinity OF
the pension agency did not have the usual
large number of quarterly patrons, some
other drinking places got part of the
money and some of the pensioners were
stranded as early as this afternoon. Many
Of them come here from distant points, and
VIXEN their money is about gone they are
ready to so home if they can get sent
away at the expense of the District. ScT-

This particular pensioner, however, had

taken so many drinks the sanitary officer
refused to deal with him, and he went
away, threatening to spend what little
money he had left and then make the
city care for him. He was only ore Of

Michigan City, Ind.

MICHIGAN CITY. Ind. June 5.-Judge
f. D. Crumpacker of Valparaiso. who was
nominated yesterday fol- Congressman by
the tenth district republicans, won that
place by the narrowest margin in the his
tory of politics.
Judge Crumpackers majority over ].
Frank Hanly of Williamsport, the present
representative OF the old ninth district in
the House, was on the right-hand side of
the decimal point. and so close was the
contest that the result was in doubt up 20
the time the very last one-hundredth of a
vote cast by White county was counted
painful hush fell over the convention
raj! when the ballot was closed and
hreathless excitement held sway for s.v-
eial minutes while Chairman Gillette of
Valparaiso counted the ballots He finally
announced that Judge Crl.mpacker had a
majority of fffty-two one-hundredths Of all
the votes cast and declared him to be the
nominee of the convention.
The total vote was 2I5, of which Crum-
pecker received 122. IS and Hanly 12224
This convention ended bitter contest that
was brought about by the gerrynander
combining portion of the old ninlh lis
trlct with the new tenth. 1t was a fight
ter supremacy between the factions II at

PENNSYLVANIA'S VOTE.
How Senator Quay Proposes to Throw
1t to Mckinley.

Aho" Sehattor quay proposes 10 throw
1t to Mckinley.
Though Senator Quay will not talk on the
subject. it appears to be pretty well I'M
derstood here now that after his name has
been presented to the convention he will at
once withdraw. so that the Pennsylvania
vote may be transferred to Mckinley be-
fore the close of the first ballot
1t Is said that Mr. Quay's chief object In
having his name presented to the oonven-
ton. now that ne regards McKinIey's NOM
nation as assured and has himself ac-
quiesced in 1t, Is to bring Governor Hast
ings prominently before the convention.
Governor Hastings Is to make the NOM
mating speech for Quay. and it is calculat
ed that he can make an impression on the
convention which will aid in the plan to
place the governor on the ticket with Nc
Kinley.
MIR. Quay was to have gone to Pittsburg
last night to tax, charge of lis interests
III Allegheny, but just before leaving he
got dispatch stating that his presence
would be unnecessary. This is accepted as
indicating that the understanding of his
Intentions has proven satisfactory TO his
opponents in Allegheny.

Mr.. LAWRENCE'S TESTIMONY
What He Told Senate Committee in Re-
gard to Cuba.
Dygerts Imprisonment-TriaI of the
Competitor Crew Conducted
Entirely in Spanish.

The testimony Of Frederick w. Lawrence,
taken before a subcommittee of the Senate
committee on foreign relations on May 20.
In regard to the situation in Cuba, was
made public today by the Senate in grant
ting permission to Senator Morgan to have
1t printed as part of his remarks. Mr..
Lawrence stated that he had gone to Cuba
as newspaper correspondent and had
been expelled. He said that a CORE
spondent he had found II impossible to
secure much information from the Spanish
authorities. and that he learned afterward
that what was given out was untrue.
Dysert's imprisonment.
Speaking of the Imprisonment of Walter
Dygert. he said Il found Mr.. Dygert i'm
prisoned at the prison at Guines in little
cell in which there were twenty-five other
men, and in which there were no sanitary
arrangements worth speaking of. The
room was very small, and IL was simply
filthy. The people with him were the dirt
lest men l ever looked on in my life, and
L have been in a great many American
prisons" Dygert, he said, had been there
about three months at that time. and Mr..
Lawrence said the Spanish authorities had
then been satisfied for two months that he
was innocent Of the charges against him.
Trial of Labarde and Milton.
Referring to the trial of Labarde and
Milton, captured on board the Competitor,
Mr.. Lawrence said that neither the prose-
cutton nor the defense asked any questions,
that five men were tried at once and that
the trial, which resulted in the sentence of
death, lasted less than a day. Asked If
there was an interpreter present, Mr. Law
renee said tnat there was but that he did
not make his presence known to the priS-
oners until they were asked whether they
had anything to say in their own defense.
These long statements were read by the
judge advocate in Spanish. The evidence
was given III Spanish and not translated In
their hearing.
Counsel Could Not Speak English.
Their defender DID not communicate TO
them the substance of X nor utter one sim
gle word to them" said Mr. Lawrence. Il
have every reason to think their defending
counsel could not speak English. Then
they were asked what they had to say in
defense, but Tot in English. The presiding
officer of the court-mart3al-there were ten
of them what We might call the jury-the
