NO CHANGE IN KENTUCKY.
The Crowd Expected . Sensation, but
Was Dfsappointed.

Louisville, Feb. "a SPECIAL 10 the Post
from Frankfort, KY, says: The senatorial
struggle today attracted more attention
than the annual Kentucky derby. Per-
haps no event in the political history of
the state has ever attracted more atten-
ton or drawn a larger crowd OF noted Ken
fuckians to the state capital BY IL O'Clock,
although the time TO ballot for senator
was an hour later, the lobby, gallery and
rotunda OF the house were crowded until
every inch OF available space had been
taken The impression had gone abroad
that today would mark the crucial strug-
gle In the contest for United States sena-
tor. and that an election or perhaps
turning point would be reached This drew
many people. Those who were informed OF
the inner workings believed that no cleo
ton would take place. and that no change
in the situation would result Among the
members few believed that anything was
to drop and they were tame and peaceaole-
Several Republicans, including the leu
tenant governor. gave IL as their opinion
that as the prospects of election were slow
he would get out of the race. DIR. Hun
ter in reply said that he was in the race
TO stay until the end. The roll call OF the
senate showed every member of that body

CAPT. MANNIx TOLD THE TRUTH
Why the Spaniards Want TO Expel Him
From Cuba.


Washington City, Feb. S-William f.
Mannix, the American newspaper CORE
spondent in Cuba who has been ordered by
the authorities 10 leave the island. wrote a
letter TO the Evening Star here some days
ago. in which he said he had been informed
that he was biacklisted at the palace at
Havana. and any more side trips would
be the cause of his being invited to leave.
The state department has not been in
formed of the intention of the Spanish
officials to expei Mannix. but IL has been
known here that his vigorous letters have
proven Objectionable TO the Spanish author
tiles. Senior de LONE says that the Spanish
consul general at New York paid Mannix's
way to Cuba, the latter representing that
he was in need OF financial assistance TO
get TO the island, and that 1t would be we'll
for Spain to have a correspondent for
American papers In Cuba who would tell
the truth about conditions as he found
them. Subsequent events, the minister
says, proved to him that Mannix was I'M
worthy of being trusted. Thomas Estrada
Palma, the representative here of the Gu
bans. says the action of the authorities in
Mannixs case was undoubtedly inspired
by their anger at him for writing true and
unbiased reports of the condition of affairs
in Cuba.
