WORKS. FIGURES

Many do not seem to understand
what the w~aterworks we are about to
vote upon are to cost the city.
our present estimate for the water
works complete, except the well or
water supply. is 81 40.
our estimate for a well of sufficient
capacity to supply the proposed plant
10 500. SO that we probably shall
not need to borrow to the limit for
which we ask authority.
Part Of this money win only be Dor
rowcd for a short time, as the cost for
laying the mains will be collected from
abutting property owners and those
benefited by the plant; such amounts
to be determined by commissioner
appointed by the mayor.
The amount we estimate that vii.
be thus collected is $500. So that
in reality the plant will only cost the
city about -, 600.

70LLeA7E RAIDERS TRAPPED.
Caught in a Midnight Exploit BY an
Ambus6ed Posse and -Four of
Them Ssot Down.

OWINGSVILLE, KY, May 22.-After
destroying twelve tollgates in Bath County
within sixty days the raiders struck a
snag at the first gate on the Wyoming
pike, two miles north of here, at 1890
O'Clock this morning, when two of their
number, David Johnson and Charles
Jones, were probably mortally wounded,
and two others, unknown, seriously hurt.
Judge Gudgell received word yesterday
that general raid, embracing three of
the principal pixies of Bath County, would
be made last night and all the toIlgates
destroyed. Sheriff Lane summoned a
posse OF nine men, and with Deputy
George Young went to the Wyoming toll
vate and hid behind fences and trees.
The raiders called Gatekeeper Garner to
the door and ordered him 10 chop down
the poles. Before he could reply Sheriff
Lane commanded the raiders to sur
render. The reply was volley from shot
guns and pistols. The posse returned the
fire, and for several minutes bullets flew.
The raiders could not see the officers, and
were finally forced to retreat.

DR.. Eusebio Hernandez. one of the most
prominent candida tes for the Presidency
of the Cuban republic, is regarded with

DR.. Hernandez is native of the

he went with Garcia on his il-starred

with Garcia on his second expedi-

offered him position as representative
in South America, but he preferred to
remain on the island, and accepted the
Foreign Affairs portfolio in the Cabinet Of

c7iSPi BEING HARD PRESSED.
Scandals Connected With Banks That
May Cause the Downfall of Many
Prominent Men,

ROME, ITALY, May 22.-The enemies Of
Signor Crispi, ex-Prime Minister. are still
pressing him hard in come ction with the
bank scandals. His wife was a witness
this week before the court investiga g
the matter, the prosecution being DESTROYS
OF obtaining from her an explanation OF
her private banking account, it being
charged that she was the recipient OF a
Iarge part of the money her husband was
accused of illegally obtaining while he
was IN office. Judging from indications
Crispis political life is ending, but he will
die hard. He doesn't deny that he re-
ceived immense sums OF money from men
with whom as Premier he should have
had no dealings, but it is certain this
money was not all for himself. 1t is te-
lieved when he goes down he will drag
with him men who are now high in politi-
cal life, and also one, if not more, princes
of the royal family. He is max ng q Bit
ter fight, but the odds are against him.

YET CONSIDERING
CUBAN AFFAIRS
President Mckinley Gets
Fresh Reports From
COnSulS.
An Increase in the Number of
Americans Who Need
Assistance.
1t Is Apparent the Appropriation OF
$4,000 VIII Not Last More
Than a Fortnight.

WASHINGTON, u. c.. May 22.-The
President is still devoting most of his
time to Cuban affairs, but there is moth
ing to indicate he has decided the details
of his policy. 1t is pretty certain, how
ever, he will not take positive action until
the report of Special Commissioner Cal
houn is received. He will probably be
back in three weeks. Mean while. Presi-
dent Mckinley is reading consular and
diplomatic correspondence bearing on the
subject and consulting political friends.
He had long talk this afternoon with
Assistant Secretary Day, who has direct
charge of all matters relating to Cuba.
1t is apparent that Mckinley is using
the present agitation of the Cuban ques-
ton to thwart cffice-seekers. whore im-
portunities have become source of an
noyance One Western representative in
Congress said he wanted to speak with
the President about the distribution of
patron age in his district, but he was put
off with the question as to what the
people West thought of recognizing the
independence of Cubans.
Senator Burrows was one OF those who
had chat with the President. He told
the reporters they had discussed Cuba,
Senator Deboe, who is anxious to fix up
beIated Kentucky appointments, was also
caller. He said ne asked the President
how he felt about recognizing the bell
ligerency OF the Cuban insurgents, but
wouldn't tell anything else except that
he believed Mckinley would do the right
thing at the right time.
Senator Proctor and Representative
Grout held a short conversation with the
President. They said they talked about

As TO RIGHTS OF WOMEN.
Comment of the London Press on the
r fusai of Cambridge to Rec9g-
nize The Fair Sex,

copyrighted 1897, by t Ne y York SUM-
LONDON, ENG, May 22-The battle for
women's degrees at Cambridge, which
ended yesterday in an overwhelming de-
feat, made even greater stir in England
than last years struggle at Oxford. Inc
vote cannot fairly be taken to represent
public opinion even among the university
men. Thus the Daily News, which cham
pions the women's claims, explains:
1.-THE vote of the absentees is supposed
to keep universities in contact with the
general views of society, but this IS an
academic fiction. There might be some
truth in it if the right of voting was DOS
sessed by every graduate. This Is far
from being the case. Those who do no.
care to spend money for becoming masters
of art or to get rid of paying annual dues
are disfranchised without regard to thell
intellectual capacity. 1t is the clergy
rather than the laity who have decided
that Cam bridge would be demoralized by
giving degrees to women, and the clergy
still have the worst Judgment OF human
affairs among all who can write and
read"
The Times, on the other hand, congratu
lates Cambridge on the decision and
adds: I'VE have reached turning point
in the history of higher education fol
women. and the time has come for com
prehensive settlement of the whole ques.
ton. 1t is only by the creation CT sepa.

Cuba, and so it was with nearly every body
who called. One of ;he visitors was Rep
resentative Mills of Chicago. He told
Mckinley the people of Illinois were
heartily in sympathy with the Cuban in
surgents. Mills said the President re-
piled: Something will soon be done for
Cuba"
Information was received from Consul
General Lee to-day showing the President
and State Department that the appropra-
ton OF $50. 900 for the relief of distressed
Americans will be inadequate. Lee tele-
graphed that Consul BrIce at Matanzas
had reported 257 Americans destitute
there and Consul Barkev at Sagua 45o at
his post. and the Consul General esti-
mated reports from other places will swell
the number to 1900. This is greatly in
excess of the figure anticipated by the
President when he sent the message to
Congress recommending the reliet appro-
rriation. Ten Thousand dollars has
already been placed at The disposal OF Lee
and the remaining 900 will not go far
toward giving assistance to the regiment
of unfortunates who are suffering from
the effects of the war.
Lee 0rSC reports ABOUT the NUMBER OF
people in need of assistance were conserv-
alive compared with his estimate to-day,
and the State Department thought two or
three hundred would be about the full
number of Americans who needed aid.
The appropriation, it is now believed, will
not last more than a fortnight.
Miss Clara Barton, accompanied by
George H. Pullman, financial secretary oil
the Red Cross, called at the State Depart
ment, but she said her visit had nothing
to do with tributing supplies to suffer
ing Americans in Cuba. Miss Barton told
a reporter the Red Cross had not been
giving aid in the matter and were not
offering its services, because she believed
they wore not necessary.
Something authentic about the call oil
the Spanish Minister yesterday on Assist.
ant Secretary Day was learned to-day.
Senior de LONE had seen in some news
papers that United States Consuls in Gu ba
were apprehensive of their safety. He
came to assure Day that Spain would give
the fullest protection to them.

ATHENS. GREECE, May 22.-The excite
ment here has finally yielded to !assltude
and calm. Five hun ired volunteers from
America arrived here yesterday, but their
appearance excited great deal more
curiosity than enthusiasm. All the vol
unteers were sent to the front at once,
the Governments view being they will be
safer there tnan at Athens. All the
Greek irregulars have been disbanded
with the exception of Chief Patsalongo
and his crack corps.
