On the stump he'd oft crate.

At the outbreak of the civil war he
was placed in command of the New

he was democratic candidate for gov

From 1873 to 1878 he was chancellor Of
New Jersey. In March, 1898, he was
appointed by President Cleveland
American minister to Germany, and
shortly afterward was made ambassa-

A SERIOUS CHARGE.

Wife OF Hotel Keeper Under Arrest for
Attempted Poisoning of Her Husband
A Barkeeper Held as an Accompiice.
ERIE, Pa, Jan. 27.-A sensation oc-
CURED Sunday afternoon at Girard,
this county, when Mary Fl. Nellis was
arrested for poisoning with intent to
kill her husband, Peter H. Nellis, pro-
prietor of the Nellis house, and Edward
Gardner was arrested as an accom-
plice. The prisoners were brought
here Sunday night and lodged in Jail.
Nellis is wealthy, and his wife is a
handsome woman. Last summer Mrs.
Nellis spent some +.me at Lilydale,
and brought home with her for a bar
tender Edward Gardner, whom she
had met at the spiritualistic resort.
Nellis carried a $40, 600 policy on his life
in favor of his wife. Several weeks ago
he was taken sick and vomited se-
verely. He has since been in declining
health, and his brother-in-law, DR..
Rogers, of Conneaut, O., became suspi-
cious, and set Maggie Hulbrook, din
ing room girl, to keep watch on events
in the hotel.
Saturday at noon Nellis got a dose of
tartar emetic in his coffee Saturday
night the girl caught and saved an
other dose which Nellis was to have
taken. Nellis got another dose Sum
day but was relieved with stomach
pump. The arrests followed and cre-
ated great excitement. The feeling
was SO strong in Girard against Gard
ner that only his timely removal by
the officers ssved him from probable

GEN. GARCIA SAILS.

Some Port Near Havana.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 27.-A morning
paper says:
Gen. Calixto Garcia, the most dis.
tinguished Cuban general now outside
Of Cuba, has escaped the watchful
eyes Of Spanish agents and has sailed
from Philadelphia, it is said, on the
fruit steamer Bernard, bound for
Cuba.
Gen. Garcia goes to Cuba at the head
Of the most formidable expedition that
has ever left this country, of which he
will take command on the high seas,
where be will meet another fruit
steamer, the Jasof, with over 900 men
on board and large quantity of arms
and ammunition.
From those familiar with Gen. Gar.
cia's plans it was learned that the ex.
pedition will make for some port near
the boundary line of the province Of
Pinar Del Rio and the province of Ha-
vana- Gen. Gomez is thoroughly in
formed of all the plans for the expedi-
ton, and at the point agreed upon for
the landing of the expedition he will
have a strong body of troops Owing
to his great popularity in that district
It is expected that Gen. Garcia will at
once place himself the head Of strong
body of men in the province of Pinar
Del Rio.
Among Cubans in this country great
hope is placed in this expedition. One
of the drawbacks of the Cuban cause
has been the lack of commanders, who
combine both bravery and military sa-
gacity. Should some misfortune be.
fall either Gen. Maxine Gomez or
Gems. Jose or Antonio Maceo, the Gu.
bans cause would be in rather en-
barrassing position.

moments notice, and when news of
