Gen. Julio Sanguilly, who has just arrived
in Florida, owes HIS escape from the barbari
ties of life Imprisonment under Spanish rule
to the fact that he is a naturalized American
citizen His case, because of his prominence
and the fimsy testimony which he was
convicted attracted much attention in this
country. stirred congressman to warlike de-
cIarations and might have led to war If Spain
had not backed water. Sanguilly served in
the ten-year revolution in Cuba AMI was
wounded in the arms and legs which left
him a cripple. He had a brilliant record,
was a man Of engaging manners and was
very popular He became great favorite in
Cuban society after that war, and won many
friends among his former enemies in the field.
When the present instruction became i'm
minent Cen Sanguilly was looked upon as
the probable leader OF the Cuban forces in
the provinces Of Santa Clara and Matanzas.
His dash and bravery: at the head of the
Cap1aguey cavalry in the previous war
were the warrant for the, popular expecta-
ton. The Spanish authorities, knowing the
common expectation, arrested him Feb. Is.
1895 On the eve of the outbreak he was
taken in Havana at the order Of Capt Gen.
Caiseja He wGs charged with conspiracy

PAYMENT TN CASH.

The G o b desires to congratulate
the council committee having in charge
the relief Of the unemployed for ADOPT
ing the suggestion which it alone has
supported, that the men ought to be
paid in cash instead of in kind We
believe that the return to the for
ner system will be not only far more
satisfactory to the persons most init
mately concerned, but will be for their
best interest as well. 1t is very diff
cult, in a case like this, to get those
who have charge of the work to under
stand how widely it differs from that
Of relief society or charitable organic
alton. There voluntary effort is made
to bring the resources of the rich to
the aid Of the poor. AS a charity, it is
proper that the necessaries of life
should be supplied; and experience has
shown that money can be given only
in a few cases and with rare discrfmi-
nation.
But this case is altogether different
1t is extraordinary. 1t is not intended
as the giving of aims. 1t is not aid ex-
tended to a dependent class, fixed in
the economy of the state It is not
private and Individual 1t is not to be
| permanent. Owing to the conditions Of
the times, the city, that is the whole
| people, give a portion of the public
funds to supply work for the unen-
| ployed. 1t is an emergency act. 1t
is an occupation which the city should
| and would not enter upon except in
| such cases. And 1t demands for the
| the same treatment that every other
! free worker receives. The objection
/ that the money paid out will be used
unwisely contains, We believe, an I'M
! deserved reflection upon the admirable
| distributing agency. The very men
| who say this seem to have forgotten
tLat the circumstances Of each applt-
! cant for work are to be examined be-
| fore he obtains employment; and that
| no man who has a reputation as a
| drunkard or a gambler or one neglect
| full of his family would be approved.
| The G b has believed in treating
these men like men; in distinguishing a
temporary public necessity from regu-
larly organized charitable work; i'll
permitting the unemployed to use their
modest wage In such way as shall
be most to their own advantage. 1t
is very glad that the committee has
made this possible by ordering payment
| to be made In cash.

Albacete treaty of 1877 American citizens
should not be tried by court-mactial unless

dence against SangulIly was generally sir
cumstantial. On Dec, 2, 1895, he was de-
Glazed guilty Of aiding and abettirg the re-
bellion and was sentenced TO Imprisonment
for life. His lawyer appealed to Spain. The
supreme court RENTED his case to Havana
for retrial on the ground that there was lack
CT proof Of Sanguillys guilt. Sanguilly's law
yer during his first trial, Miguel Viondi, had
been imprisoned and for a time occupied a
cell with his former client. The main wit
ness who testified in sangui1ly's favor, An
tonic Lopez Coli1na, had been imprisoned
eighteen months and then sh2t. Another i'm
portant witness. the expert penman who
testified favorably tc Sanguiily, died sudden
ly in Havana. Sanguilly was again convicted
and again appealed. Consul General Lee in
terceded in his behalf. and Spain, after he
had been imprisoned two years. agreed to
change Sanguilly's sentence to Punishment
On condition that he should withdraw his ap-
peal. This he did reluctantly, because it
might be construed a surrender Of his

Stockholders of a Chicago Concern
Go Down Into Their Pockets.
Chicago, Jan. 2.-The Dime Savings
bank has been saved, 1t is announced,
by the sacrifice Of the stockholders,
who have gone down in their pockets
and paid an assessment Of some 80
per cent. The examination Of Auditor
Gere is understood to have found q
large deficiency in the banks assets,
and rather than have the bank close
its doors, leaving its 1000 depositors
to suffer, the directors put the bank on
its feet. So successful were they that
the state auditor gave his full endorse
ment to the new condition of the insti-
tuition. The cash reserve was increased
to over 25 per cent Of the deposits as
compared with the legal reserve Of 15
per cent for savings banks. Just how
soon the nillety-day notice for depos-
itors will be withdrawn was not de-
termined ut meeting of directors
held today. 1t is said the Dime Saw
ings will soon be sold to some one Of
the stronger hanks OF its class.

Belle Williams, the twelve-year-old girl

assault covered up his foul work in
sealing the lips with death by strangu-
lation. Williams Is the father of the
murdered girl and accuses the Mayes
woman of the deed. The pair agreed
to take the girl to Kansas City In or
