FOREIGN NOTES by CABLE

The steamer Empress of China
brings these advices that Mrs. Carey,
who was convicted about year ago
of the murder of her husband in Yo-
kohoma and whose sentence OF death
was commuted to imprisonment for
life, has been sent to England on the
steamer Sumatra. She will be con-
fined in Woking prison.
II is said to be the present inten-
ton of President Mckinley to 1ncor-
porate the recent Spanish correspon-
dence in his annual message TO con
gress. He does not deem 1t compatible
with the public interest to publish
the full text of the notes, pending tur-
ther correspondence and the carrying
out of the promises made by the
Spanish government.
A Havana dispatch says that Mar
shall Blanco has received cabled dl-
rectiOns to release the prisoners cap
tured on the American schooner Com
petitor in April, 1896, and that they
will sail for the United States. 1t Is
reported that the instructions to the
governor general directs the return OF
the captured arms and of the vessel
to the owners.
The new secretary general of Cuba,
DR.. Jose Congosto. formerly Spanish
consul at Philadelphia, continues TO
make himself unpopular. He has had
? dispute with prominent cOnserva-
tive, Senior Francisco de Las Santos
Guzman, former president of the
congress. and has also had q misun-
derstanding with Senor CuetrO q
prominent autonomist. with the result,
it is understood, that letters have been
written to Madrid calling attention to
the alleged eccentricitiCs of the sec
retary general and also dwelling upon
his peculiar political s~ntiments.

stated that he had met and talked with
Edward Murray, for whose murder
Frank Novak is now being tried in
Iowa. Wood said there could be no
mistake about it; that he not only
saw Murray but met and shook hands
and talked with him in a saloon. They
had talked but a few minutes together
when Murray stepped to the door, as
If to call friend and went out and
failed to return. Though Wood
searched all over town he could find
no trace of the man again. He at
once reported the matter to a man
whom he believed to be a police Of
ficer, but he was not, and did not give
it to the police until tonight The po-
lice are looking for Murray. Chief of
Police Read wired the sheriff of Ben

case and got several kilograms in re-

cover Murray. Wood says he has
known Murray for years and he was
