Chairman Carter in Danger.

BUTTE, Mont, May 9.-Excite-
ment here Is intense over the re-
publican state convention, which
is to meet here Monday. Many of
the leading members Of the party
in the state are in the city, and
are in earnest consultation over the
attitude to be taken by the conven-
ton on the money question. The
fact that Senator Thomas III. Car
ter, OF this state, is chairman OF
the National republican committee
renders this states pronouncement
on silver popularity important.
The few gold men in the state de-
clare that il the silver men use
their power and make the plat
form declare for silver, the party
will depose Carter from chairman
ship.

Trial Trip Of the Oregon.

SANTA BARBARA, Cal, May g.
1t is not likely the battleship
Oregon will arrive here for her
trial trip until Tuesday or We'd
nesday, although expected Mon

stead Of the old government 40
mile cruise. The course has been
carefully surveyed and is consid-
cred the choicest available place
upon the Atlantic or Pacific coast.

Great Suffering In Havana-and Among
the Spanish Soldiers.

NEW YORK, May "a special to
the Herald from Havana says:
The condition Of Havana is de-
plorable. Important business
houses are closing every week,
others are threatening to close, re-
ducing their forces, cutting down
salaries OF those who remain,
while the price Of living, always
high here, is constantly increasing.
Stories of want and misery are
heard on every side and everybody
looks forward to the worst sum-
mer in the history Of the Island.
The great cigar and cigarette
houses-the main industry OF the
city-are holding down their Or
ders as much as possible as there
is not enough leaf tobacco in sight
to carry them through the sum-
mer. Maceo's destructive campaign
in the Vuelta Abajjo district will
ultimately compel many factories
to suspend and deprive thousands
of families Of their means OF sub
sistence.
Smallpox has increased in Ha-
vana recently, and the authorities
have been stirred to take action
to isolate patients to some
extent. 1t is learned that the
health OF the soldiers massed
along the trocha is very bad. The
turning up OF ground across the
island and the massing of men
without sanitary arrangements, re-
suit in inuumerable cases OF msla-
ria fever. The insurgents say this
is hardly beginning. When rains
come the bitches will become mud
dy streams, the little forte along
the edges will crumble and fall
and fever will deciminate the
ranks.
Antonio Maceo's private secre-
tary took advantage Of Gen Wey-
ler's recent offer OF amnesty to the
rebels in the Plnar del Rio district.
He surrendered and was imme-
diately released. He is quoted
as saying he became very tired in
the mountain camps where ne
groes preponderate. He says
Maceo has big army in good con-
dition, quite we'll armed. The
general remarked:
whenever l get ready to cross
the trocha | can cross it. The
troops cannot stop me any more
than they can defeat me where l
am"
When Msceo was asked jokingly
if he intended to surrender to es-
cape punishment he replied:
"The Spaniards may some time
get my dead body. 1 will neither
surrender nor allow them to take
me prisoner, l would kill myself
first.

Summer Amusements in New York.

NEW YORK, May 9.-Summer
music with spectacular accessories
will be an attraction at the Metro
politsn opera house, commencing
this evening. There will be an
orchestra of sevehty-tive must
clans, conducted by Anton Seidl,
which will play music Of a light
and popular character. The or
chestra parts will be covered with
the flooring used for balls, which
will serve as a hugh promenade.
A vaudeville entertainment, ballet
advertisements and other special
features will enliven the perform
ance. On Sunday evenings the
large floor will be filled with
chairs and serious concerts given
to evade the Sunday law. Lovers
Of grand opera say this common
izing Of the great house will hurt
the opera by robbing the building
Of its exclusiveness, none OF the
aristocracy wishing to patronlze
opera given in a music hall.

NEW YORK, May "a special to
the Herald from Kingston, Jamai-

the safe arrival in Cuba Of an ex-
petition in aid Of the insurgents,
which recently left this island.
The vessel conveying the expedi-
ton was chased by q Spanish
cruiser and compelled to land her
men and cargo in the vicinity OF
an encampment Of government
troops, which, however was avoid
ed by a flank movement.

NINETY PER CENT
Favor Mckinley, Says Judge jackson.

Lo'Nt 41NAAA
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, May 9.-Judge
]. H. Jackson, OF Fort Worth, Tex,
supreme vice president of the
American Protective association
passed through here yesterday on
his way to Washington, d. c., to
attend the meeting OF the supreme
council which will decide definitely
the position of the order with ref
erence to McKinley's candidacy for
president. "This alleged fight OF
the A. p. A. against Mckinley is
all humbug," said Judge Jackson
"and l have every reason to be-
lieve that the supreme council will
repudiate the action Of the advi-
sorry board. The advisory board
clearly overstepped its authority
in attempting to dictate to the or
der whom it shall and shall not
support. Mckinley stands all
right in the order and over ninety
per cent of US are with him.

Resolutions of Respect.

At meetingof the members of the Bap-
list Church, held on Sunday last, the follow
ing preamble and resolution were adopted :
Whereas, in the death of our brother, the
late Judge VIM Veirs Bouic, we as church
are sadly bereaved in this the loss OF the
eldest and one Of the early members OF this
body. In the early struggles of the church
he, with his associates of that day, strove
successfully to build up the cause OF the
Master in this town. For over fifty years,
by his practical and wise counsels, and in
his early days as one Of the most liberal
contributors, he aided greatly TO the success
of the church, financially and otherwise
therefore be 1t
ResoLoed, That, while we submit to the
call of the Master, we revere his memory,
and will ever cherish his name as brother
beloved and respected, and that these utter
ances be recorded in the Church Record.
