HOME RULE FOR CUBA.
Queen Regent Signs Decree for the
Reforms Proposed.

Washington, April 3G.-The announce
ment from Madrid that the queen
regent has signed decree applying
the reform laws to Cuba is considered
by officials here as a realization of the
plans under negotiation for many
months to give Cuba an autonomous
form of government or home rule. The
nome rule plan about to be applied was
made public in detail by Minister Du-
puy de LONE on February last. A
council of administration is created for
the government of the affairs of the
island. This council will be in the
nature of parliament made up of 81
members, a majority of them being
elected by the Cubans and lesser num-
Der appointed by the throne. The coun-
Gil of administration is given practical
ly supreme control of the island, sub
ject to certain supervisory authority
by the home government. One of the
most important features of the plan is
that allowing Cuba to revise her tariff
schedules. The reform law was passed
March S, 1895, but never applied to
Cuba owing to the uprising. On last
New Years day it was promulgated by
the queen regent and gazetted in Ha-
vana as a concession of the new year.
Its actual application was still with
held, however, until Gen. Weyler could
announce that the island was pacified.
On the kings fete day the plan was
amplified. The decree now signed by
the queen appears to be the last step
toward actually applying the law to
Cuba.

Houston, Tex, May 1.-For the muir
der of an old man in his dotage. a
child in it's homage and woman in

Last fall German from Brennan
was robbed of SOS. Suspicion pointed
to the four Thomas boys, and they con-
fessed to having committed the theft,
saying they had given $50 of the money
to Henry Daniels. Daniels spent the
money. and on Sunday evening last
the four Thomas boys, according to
their confession. decided to either col
lect their $50 or kill Dapiels. They car
ried out the latter part of the pro-
gramme.
Henry Daniels, an old negro, lived
there in little hut with his stepdaugh-
ter Marie, and seven-year-old child
Wednesday night the house was broken
open, Marie Daniels and the seven-year-
old child were ravished and the old man
Daniels dubbed to death trying to pro-
tect those in his charge. Then old man
Daniels and his stepdaughter were
thrown into the house and the child
thrown into the well. The house was set
on fire and the devils capable of such
crime left thinking that they had COW
cred their inhuman deed from the sight
of the world. The fire had not attracted
much attention, but when Daniels and
his people did not show up, the charred
location Of the house was searched and
the terrible truth was soon only too
plain. The burned remnants of human
bodies left no doubt in one direction,
while the bloodstains about the prem
Uses indicated the commission of MUIR
der.
The local officers went to work with
will and were ably assisted by the
best citizens of the neighborhood. The
bloodhounds from Steele's plantation

they were secured. Fayette Rhine, 81

the evidence, they owned the commit
ting of the crime and laid the killing to
Louis, the oldest.

groes, limp and lifeless. All of them are
still there, except Williams, and he is
not to be found, but the shots proba-
bly, explain his absence.
