SPAIN EXCITED.
Said to Have Borrowed 1OO, 100000 Pe-
 setas to Prepare for War With the United

London, June 22.-A dispatch to the Daily Mail from Madrid says that the platform adopted by the St. Louis con- vention has caused much anger in Spain and that a conflict with the Unit ed States is almost fixed.
 The Rothscnilds have loaned the gov ernment 100,0000OO pesetas on the se curity of the Almaden quicksilver mines. and the money will be applied mostly to the purchase of warships. The dispatch says the government is responding to an undoubted national sentiment, trusting probably to receiv- ing help from other powers.
 A dispatch from Madrid to the Gen. tral News says that the Spanish gov ernment declares that the claims for damages made by Americans in Cuba are mostly untenable and some of them ridiculous. For instance. they say one man demands s25,000 because he suf- fered with pephritis while in prison in Cuba, and another asks for pecuniary damages because he was afflicted with smallpox
 Madrid, June 22.-The liberals have introduced in the senate a motion cen suring the United States for their at titude regarding Cuba.

 Party Will Remain Sound.
 Boston, June 22.-'When seen to-day in regard to the report that he was going to Chicago with ex-Secretary Whitney, ex-Governor Russell said:
 ''At the earnest request of Mr. Whit ney and others I am going to Chicago with him to give whatever help I can in the struggle in the democratic party for sound money against free silver. My own views on the subject are we'll known and have been often stated. Be- lieving the issue to be of the gravest character, not only to the country, but to the present and future of the demo- cratic party, I cannot remain inactive if it is thought can be of service at Chicago. l cannot, however, so to Chicago under the least suspicion that I am there for any personal reasons, nor can I take part iE this light, en1- barrassed by any personal interest in the result. I shall, therefore, decline to have my name presented to the con- vcntion as a candidate.
 T believe in making the straightest fight possible for sound money and gold standard, and shall not give up the fight until the votes are counted. [ consider it both duty and a privilege to take part in this struggle, and I shalt do it with my whole heart, unembar- rassed by any personal considerations, and in the earnest hope and belief that the democratic convention will be sound in it's platform and it's candidates"

PEARL OF THE ANTILLES.
President Cleveland Not Preparing a
 Message on Cuba.


 Washington, June 22,-There was rumor this afternoon that the state de- partment would issue a statement about Cuban affairs apropos the an nounCement that Consul General Lee had sent a report to the president wh, ch would form the basis for action on the situation in the islands. The rumor was erroneous. IL was learned, how eVer that the state department was confident that no report on which de- cisive policy could be framed had been sent. General Lee has been in Cuba a few weeks and has not left Havana. It was remarked by an official that the president would not have gone fishing If he expected critical dispatches. Mr. Cleveland's delay in starting for Gray Gables is pointed to in some quarters as giving color to the story. M. Ryan, the supposed bearer of the dispatch, now in quarantine in New York, went to Cuba on his own volitiOn, and had no official connection with General Lee or with the department of state.

ISSUE WILL BE THE TARIFF.
So Says Manager Mark Hanna of Republi-
 can Campafgn

Canton, O., June 22.-Major McKin- ley met his manager, M. A. Hanna, to-day for the first time since the tri- umphant conclusion of his labors of the last two months. MT. Hanna came here in his private car, accompanied by Mrs. Hanna, Hon. Clay Evans of Chattanooga, Colonel and Mrs. Fred Grant of New York, and William Os- borne of Boston. Major Mckinley was at the station and he met his guests in the car. He and MT. Hanna greeted each other cordially. Alighting from the car Major Mckinley took Mrs. Hanna, Mrs. Grant and Mr Evans with him in the family carriage and drawn by the staid old white horse they pro- ceeded sedately to tiies ~i1ouse..as sThs other gentlemen used public convey ances
 Shortly after reaching the house lunch was served. MT Evans when in-
 terviewed said that the ticket was a sure winner. He believed that abuses in the state administration and the growth of the protection sentiment made it almost sure that Tennessee would fall into the republican column this year. MT. Hanna when questioned stated that arrangements for the visit of the notification committee to Major
 Mckinley next Monday were complete.
 Regarding the members of the execu- tive committee, he said: "I cannot say that the selections are all made, but am at work on the subject and will an- nounce the names in a few days" MT. Hanna did not know where head quarters would be located. He was not sure that he favored Cleveland, for that was a question the committee
 should determine, having in view only
 the best interests of the party
 As to the financial plank of the plat- form, MT. Hanna said: "The assertion that it was in any sense forced upon
 the committee or convention by the
 eastern delegates or any part is untrue. Personally speaking it is entirely sat- lSIaCCOry to me.
 What shape or direction will the campaign take, tariff or finance?"
 "Oh, it will be strongly tariff, you | may be sure of that" he replied. Later on MT. Hanna was closeted with the major, remaining with him | until train time At o'clock MT. Hanna and party left the city. Among l Major McKinleys other visitors to-day were W. M. Hahn formerly member of the national committee, and Colonel Kowalasky, delegate from San Fran cisco. The colonel said the republican,
 party would carry California on the is- sue of protection. The money question will cut no important figure. 'I have talked with Major Mckinley" continu- ed the colonel, and he is of the opinion that several of the silver states, so-caIl- ed, can be carried this year on the protection tariff argument"
 | MT. Hahn spoke in the same strain. | He declared that the feeling of envy and hatred among workingmen against
 employers which helped to defeat the
 party in 1892 is no longer existing. To- night 250 citizens of Zanesville and
 Muskingum county called. They march ed to Major McKinley's residence and
 were accompanied there by thousands. Congressman Van Voorhis made g. speech and Major Mckinley responded, l talking about the tariff

Recorder Golf to Deliver Charge in Flcn-
 ing Case To-day.
 New York, June 22-Charles w. Brooke began his summing up this morning for Mrs. Fleming, accused of poisoning her mother, Mrs. Bliss.
 This defendant" said he, lis charged with poisoning her mother on August 30, 1885 Gentlemen of the jury. nature revolts from this horrible charge" He then discussed the evidence. He said that on August 30, 1895, one portion of clam chowder was brought to Mrs. Flemings room in the Colonial. And, gentlemen, remember that on the 30th of August ill the dog days this chow der remained in the heat of the room on the southerly side of the hotel for five or six hours. Towards the close of the day late in the afternoon, the prose cution state that this clam chowder was brought in a pail to the home of Grandma Bliss on St. Nicholas avenue. The chowder must have been old by the time it reached the flat"
 He laid great stress on the fact that Florence King, the little girl who went with Oracle Fleming to Grandma Bliss said that Mrs. Fleming did not tell Oracle to take that clam chowder," but she said take that pitcher" Florence King" said MT. Brooke, "tes- tified that Mrs. Bliss poured the con- tents of the pail into a pitcher Into what pitcher was the clam chowder ha 5istr at did mt ask Florence King to describe the pitcher"
 Gentlemen" shouted MT Brooke, eff it were poisoned chowder and entrust- ed to the care of her own child, 1t would have been perfectly natural that the caution would come from the mother before the chowder was sent but the words have no significance whatever when told to the child on her rteurn."
 In conclusion, MT. Brooke made an eloquent appeal to the jury to acquit the defendant. He said that the people had not made out it's case, and that it was the duty of the jury to render a. verdict of not guilty.
 MT, Brooke spoke three hours and thirty eight minutes. Assistant Dis trict Attorney Mcintyre began to sum up for the people at o'clock. He de- tended Dr. Scheele and said that no fair minded man would believe he had placed deposits of arsenic in the bot ties entrusted to his care. MT. McIn- tyre spoke for about three hours and a half, and when he concluded court ad- journed until tomorrow, when Record CT Golf will deliver his charge.
