HE'S our ABeUr $4,000.
An Eccentric Farmer Robbed by Persons
Who Knew His Hoarding Place.

Morrisville, VT, Oct. 24.-Gould
Camp, a resident OF Stowe, eight miles
from here has suffered a loss by theft
of over $4,000, including coupons of gov
ernment bonds, $500 in gold and $100 in
bills. Camp is an eccentric bachelor,
sixty years old, and has about $S0000
worth Of property which is in charge
of a guardian, Arlo Luce of Stowe.
The latter did not know of this
amount, which Camp had stored in a
tin box, the box being thrown in be-
meath a lot of rubbish in the barn.
Camp to-day disclosed the fact that he
had had such an amount hidden away
and that it is missing. Suspicion was
directed to a party of five men and
women from near Boston, who had been
visiting the family to keep house for
Camp. This party left town to drive to
Albany, VT. Luce took two officers and
followed them. The party was over
hauled mile east of here and brought
back, when the officers searched the
men and the landlady searched the
women. Nothing was discovered and
they were allowed to go.

of John Mantell, at the corner of Grand
avenue and East street. officers Caul-
field and Taylor visited the place and
found several men drinking at the back
door of the saloon.
At $3.50 in the afternoon Sergeants
Doherty and Hayes, who were out on
the lookout for violations, saw evidence
that business was being done at the
saloon of Patrick j. Gallagher, at 80

released on bonds.
The next raid made was at the place
of James Lacey, at 1877 Grand avenue

officers visited the saloon in the latter
part of the afternoon and saw enough
to convince them that liquor was being
sold They went back to the station
house, but later returned with Sergeant

evidence against the proprietor of the
saloon, but also caught one Of his spot
ters. The spoilers name is Patrick
Lacey, and he is a brother of the saloon
keeper. He was stationed outside, and
an electric annunciator was fixed sc

sunk back in the wall about four inches
and to ring it the spotter used long
nail to push in the button. The officers
also found that door connected La

and he will be charged with violation
of the Sunday law and with having a
connection between his saloon and liv-
ing rooms.

TRACY VIII YIN, SAYS rEATr.
His Words of encouragement to the Re-
nnhlicans of Grenter Now York.

publicans of Grenter New York.
New York, Oct. 24.-In statement
tonight Senator Platt said:
II want to say that in my belief Gen.
eral Tracey has won the election. There
are three democratic candidates in the
field-four counting Gleason-among
whom the democratic vote will be di-
vided. 1t is not a majority vote any
how. The democrats have never had
q majority in the territory now con-
solidated since the enactment of the
present election law. The democrats
have never obtained a majority in the
city of New York. They won in 1895,
but they did not win by a majority.
Van Wyck will probably get the most
of their votes.
George will get huge proportion Of
it and Low will get substantial re-
mainder. Low is the candidate of four
democratic organizations, the ship de-
mocracy, the Goo-goo democracy, the
purer democracy and the stricter de-
mocracy. More and more as the can
vass has proceeded he has become iden-
titled before the public with the demo-
cratic party. He is the embodiment of
holier-than-thou idea of the Cleveland
party. He is a revival of Clevelandism.
"The republican vote on the other
hand is consolidated upon single can
didate. And so l say to republicans,
keep steadily at work. You have al
ready won and are winning in greater
measure every day. Your constant and
united efforts will bring this great
city, with it's tremendous influence
upon the affairs of the country to the
support of the republican party and the
noble principles for which it stands"

STRENGTH OFF OUR NAVY.
141 Vessels of All Kinds-Laek of Funds
DELAYS Work.

Washington, Oct. 24.-In his annual
report to the secretary Of the navy,
Philip Hichborn, chief constructor of
the navy, says that the strength of the
navy on October 1 was 141 vessels, all
told, including the ships of both old
and new navies. 1t is stated that dur
ing the last few months of the last fs-
cal year a considerable amount of work
upon vessels that had been authorized
by congress had to be suspended owing
to lack of funds. This caused a heavy
drain upon the new appropriations at
the beginning Of the present fiscal year,
and makes the exhaustion Of those ap-
preparations before the first Of next
July at most an assured fact.

met her doom, lies, bottom upward, the
torn and battered hull of the ill-fated
steamship Carr wrecked early yester-

two known survivors, Captain Anifind-

ger signal. After capsizing the ship
was carried over the rocks near the

SPAIN ASKS FOR FAIR PLAY
HER NOTE WIZ PROTEST AGAINST
QUE ATTITUDE.

1t VIII Criticize Us for Winlsing at Cuban
Fiiibustering Expeditions-Will Not be
Turbulent in Tone-No Friction Between
the Countries Apprehended as u Result
of the Reply-New Reforms for Cuba.
Madrid, Oct. PA government note
protesting against filibustering will be
handed to United States Minister
Woodford tomorrow.
According to a dispatch from Ha-
vana Lieutenant General Weyler has
ordered the abandonment of the DEM
onstrations that were being prepared
there in his favor and against the gov
ernment
Mrs. Woodford, the wife of the minis
ter, has arrived here. General Wood
ford has not yet taken an official resi-
dence.
London, Oct. 24.-The Times this
morning prints dispatch from Mad
rid saying that three cabinet ministers
have expressed desire to settle the
Cuban situation, adding that had it not
been for the United States the Cuban
question would have been settled long
ago.
London, Oct. 25.-The Madrid CORE
spondent of the Standard says: "A
member of the cabinet assures me that
the government intends to give Cuba
complete local government, with uni
versal suffrage to elect municipal and
provincial councils and an insular par
Lament. The latter will be composed
of upper and lower chambers, having
entire control of taxation and tariff.
The responsible government will be
composed of five ministers, whose coun-
ellis will be presided over by the COVER
nor general.
Senators and deputies for Cuba will
continue to sit in the Spanish cortes
and the imperial government will con-
troll the army, navy, police and trib-
unals as we'll as foreign affairs of the
colony, exactly as the programme of
the autonomists demanded. The gov
ernment has received promises Of the
support of both the autonomists in
Cuba and of those residing in France
and the United States and expects no
opposition from the other colonial par
ties.
The same minister says that the
government does not believe the Span
ish note will cause friction with the
United States because it is couched in
friendly tone and virtually shows
that Spain is doing what the United
States has repeatedly advised"
Madrid, Oct. 24.-El Impartial pub
fishes a ceblegram from Key West as
serting that there is a strong party in
Cuba 'fiercely opposed to Marshal
Blanche and the new regime" and that
it is feared his task will be very diff
cult.
The instructions given to Marshal
Blanche, the new governor general of
Cuba, are conciliatory and aim to se-
cure the cooperation of all the parties.
II is even asserted that the Cuban press
will enjoy more liberty subject to re-
strictions upon criticisms calculated to
affect military discipline
A vigorous reform of administrative
abuses and careful wedding of the
ranks Of officialdom are, so foreshadow-
ed in the instructions. No more off,
cials are to be appointed from Madrid.
The early extension of the franchise is
promised, and it is intimated that the
remaining plans of the government will
be made known progressively when the
new governor-general assumes office
next month.
