sANGuLLY UNDER ARREST
Charged by Spanish Consul With
Aiding a Cuban Expedition.
PROTESTS HIS INNOCENCE
Cubans Indignant and Say the Span
ish Were Afraid His Presence In
Cuba Would Inspire the Insur-
gents-Federal Officers Denounced
as Lending Aid TO the Spanish.

Jacksonville, Fla, April 6.-Gen. Julio
Sanguilly and Col. Francesca Lachusa
were arrested last night on a charge of
aiding and abetting military expedition
which was to be started from these shores
against the peace and dignity OF the
kingdom OF Spain.'' This is the sequel to
the breaking up by the vesuyius Of an
alleged expedition to have been sent to
Cuba on the Bermuda last Saturday night.
The warrant was issued by United States
Commissioner Egan, and is returnable
at 10 a. m. today,
When the general was sho wn the warrant
he Immediately went before the United
States Commissioner, though he was not
asked to appear until today. He was
greatly wrought up and Immediately ypleade'l
mot guilty, morally or legally stat
ing, with great earnestness, that he was
not making preparations to go to Cuba
nor had he any such intention He was
paroied in the custody of j. NJ. Barrs, the
attorney for the Junta.
Gen. Sanguilly is highly indignant at
the action OF the Spanish consul, Senor
Potous, in having this arrest sprung upon
him, and will insist upon an early hearing.
This the Government viii fight, as
United States District Attorney Clark
is out OF town, though Cromwell Gibbons,
who stands sponsor for all Spanish doings S,
is here. The Government will ask that
the case go over until Saturday, which
doubtless W III he ordered
Cubans here are greatly stirredup. They
denounce the United States officials for
Tending themselves TO the service Of
Spain" Ample bail can be furnished,
that nothing can be done to bother Gen.
Sanguiliy except the aggravation OF hav-
ing to stay here tofignt the cas- after ward.
He was arrested. it is said. to prevent
his returning to Cuba, as the Spanish fear
his presence there would encourage the
insurgents greatly.

Heard of the Arrest.

When Secretary OF State Sherman was
asked il the report OF the arrest OF San
gully was correct, he replied:
II don't know"
lit is stated that Sanguilly was arrested
upon the complaint of the Spanish minis
ter, and that the State Department was
aware that the arrest would be made?"
''Guesswork,' replied Secretary Sher-
man. Il don't know anything about it. "
Solicitor General Conrad, of the Depart

rest was made at the instance of the United
states district attorney for that district,
I would have been informed OF it. have
heard nothing at all of the arrest. 1t might

CASTLES FINE PERFORMANCE
Opera "FaIka" Given In Excellent
Form at the Lafayette Square.

Onern "FaIka" Given In Excellent
Form at the Lafayette Square.
1t is probable that there has never been
given in Washington under exactly simi-
lar circumstances such a performance as
that of ''Falka'' which the Castle Square
Opera Company OF Philadelphia has been
producing this afternoon for a special
matinee The company and chorus and
the spedal orchestra and a few friends
make a party numbering 125.
This full company, with the "Faika" seem
ery and properties and costumes, left
Philadelphia this morning on special
train at S:20. 1t made run to Washing
ton in two hours and fifty minutes, ar
irving here at 11:10. The whole COM
pany had luncheon then at the Riggs
House, skipped over to the Lafayette
Square, put up its scenery, donned its
costumes and commenced a performance
complete in every way at 1885.
At APO the whole company with its
costumes and scenery and properties will
take the train back co Philadelphia, reach
ing there at 7:20. Tonight there will be
a complete performance of "Falka," at
the Philadelphia Grand Opera House.
Opera Company this afternoon is a very
pleasant foretaste of what summer opera
will be at the Lafayette Square this season,
beginning on Easter Monday, April 10.
The company has been running a season of
fortv-six weeks at the Grand Opera House
in Philadelphia, never missing night
during all that time. We are to have it
for twelve weeks, at least, here. The
performance of ''Faika'i this afternoon
was really a very pretty one in every way.
The cast includes Mrs. Edith Mason, Miss
Lizzie Macnichol, Mr.. William Wolff Mr..
Oscar Girard. Mr.. Persse, Mr.. G. Stewart,
Miss Anna LIGHTER, Miss Bessie Fairbairn,
and several others and is strong one all
the way through The chorus is excellent,
and the orchestra well trained
The performance was witnessed by an
audience that left not a seat vacant in the
house, although when the curtain went
up it was raining and disagr4eable outside.

A DAMAGE SUIT.
Mr.. Puterbach Claims Damages from J. W..
Perry, for Injuries to Horse.

That was an interesting law suit
that was held before P. X. Shultz Esq.
at Central last Tuesday afternoon, the
litigants being Mr.. Puterbach, as
plaintiff, and J. w. Perry the we'll
known landlord of Elk Grove as de-
fendant, both OF Sugarloaf township.
On July 2, Mr.. Puterbach was driving
up through Jamison City, when team
ran into him, demolishing his wagon,
and severely injuring his horse. The
team belonged to J. w. Perry, and
was driven by man named Wilcox.
Puterbach sued Perry for damages,
alleging that Wilcox was the servant
of Perry and was in the performance
of his masters business when the ac-
cident occurred, and that the master
is liable for the negligence of his ser
want. On the other hand Mr.. Perry
alleged that he had loaned his team
to Wilcox to take some boarders down
to Jamison City to draw their pay
and that Wilcox was not employed by
him on this occasion.
This raises very nice legal ques
ton. The case was ably tried by A
L. Fritz, Esq, for the plaintiff, ant
the defense was we'll taken care OF b,
A. w. Duy, Esq, assisted by Harr,
Stees who took notes of evidence

Ikeler & Ikeler. Over twenty VII
nesses were examined, and a larg
number of spectators were present

HIGHLY SPOKEN OF.

The following highly complimentary
notice Is taken from the Buffalo Et-
byess. Mr.. Scarlet is for the defense
in the Benham poison case now being
tried at Batavia New York. 1t says:
The feature of the day was, OF
course, Lawyer Scarlet's address to
the jury. 1t was masterpiece, no
less by reason of the things it left un-
said than for what it said. 1t WAS d
livered with all the eloquence of the
silver-tongued Pennsylvania, who is
a master of oratory. 1t had It's effect
and it made no very rash promises as
to what would be proven. Still, if the
defense can make its case as M
Scarlet outlined it, the jury will have
difficult task on its hands
GAS the eloquent Pennsylvania
waxed warm, jury and audience alike
sat spell-bound. 1t has been evident
since the trial began that the brain:
and eloquence of the defence were
centered in Lawyer Scarlet, and hi
delivery of the opening Grafton, nc
less than his words, showed his mas
terly skill as a pleader."

BROKE HIS ARM.

D. A. Greasy, O. H. Yetter and
several others started out Monday
evening for a bicycle ride up the river
road. They went up as far as Lime
Ridge where they turned and started
back. When near the Almedia grave
yard they met young man by the
name of Aaron Boone, who was riding
IN a very reckless fashion, and before
he could turn his wheel, he and Mr..
Greasy collided, the wheels going
together with considerable force
throwing both riders abruptly to the
ground. Mr.. Creasy's arm was brok-
en- above the elbow, besides sustaining
severe bruises. Boone Jared better
lnasmuch as he was only scratched
up little. The bicycles were slightly
bent, but not badly damaged.
Whether Boone was running on time
or not we do not know, but from all
reports he was going entirely too fast
for the public road, and others who
make a practice of riding at brea
neck speed, should take warning.
