Surprise in New York.

New York. Jan. 20.-The news of the
discharge of Ivory came as a surprise
to Irishmen here. for even the pris-
oner had looked upon the matter as a
cut-and-dried affair William Lyman,
president of the Irish National ALI
ance. who specially engaged John F.
MCINTYRE in the defense of Ivory, When
seen today said
1.-THE withdrawal of the prosecution
is the biggest blow that Scotland YARD
has received. The English public has
now had it's eyes opened and 1t can
figure up for itself how many OF the
other unfortunate so-called dynamiters
who were convicted on perjured teSu-
mony. and were driven mad ike DR..
Gallagher and Whitehead, were inno-
cent.
q thought they would have rail
roaded Ivory in order 10 make good
their pretenses before the English peo-
pie They would have done so. but
they knew Ivory's defense was one
that could not he gotten over
This is the first time that any de-
Tense has ever been attempted by an
Irish-American arrested in England.
The policy has been to leave them to
their fate in the belief that it would
be impossible 10 obtain justice from
an English jury. l am glad OF the re-
suit as it will do a lot of good.
Public opinion in England has
changed The people there are sick of
Scotland Yard plots, and I can only
account for the withdrawal of the
case on the assumption that the pros
ecution knew the jurors would not act
blindly as in former times.
L may say now that the prosecu-
ton did everything in its power to
have Ivory plead guilty, saying that
he would receive a nominal sentence
or have sentence suspended.
They tried plot after plot to connect
the Irish National League with a dy-
Mantle policy in order to discredit it.
In that. as we'll as inducing Ivory. an
innocent man, to plead guilty, they
failed.
Il don't know much about Mr. Ivory.
but / viii guarantee him the biggest
reception on his return here that any
Irish-American ever received, and in
that connection John Faintree will re-
ceive his full share of praise, as 1 be-
lieve he had much to do with the
showing up of the weakness of the
prosecution.
What will they do now with their
informer. Jones? 1t is the only thing 7
am sorry for since this fiasco that
Ivory did not get an opportunity to
show that scoundrel up in his true
cOlors But think how Jones must
have gulled Scotland Yard Why.
Ivory had witnesses ready to prove
that Jones, ever since he started from
this country at the bidding of Scot
land Yard. tried to induce men in Dub
lin to work up dynamite plots.
Witnesses went over from here to
show that he had attempted the same
thing and had been expelled from one
club for doing So

DELGADO'S DEATH.
More Evidence of the Innate Brutal
ity of the Spanish Race.

New York, Jan. 20.-The death OF
Henry Delgado, which is announced in
q Havana dispatch received at the
state department at Washington today,
was primarily due to exposure when
he landed in Cuba. He tramped nearly
800 miles through the hlly country
around Pinar del Rio. and became so
Thoroughly exhausted that he was
taken down with fever. He sought
refuge in one of the hutS, which the
insurgents used as field hospitals.
There he was captured by the Span
iards under command of General Mel
guiZo. The Spanish general gave oroerS
that the captured should be killed on
the spot. as two of his companions had
been. But he discovered the identity
of the sick man and fearing further
combinations with the United States
government (as he was the same soldier
who assaulted the venerable Jose Del
gado. which has resulted in claim
against the Spanish government the
prisoners life was spared. He was I'M
mediately sent TO Havana with word
that he might possibly be Percle Del
gado. one of Maceo's lieutenants, for
whom a reward of $4,000 had been Of
fered.
The young man was sent to San
Ambrosia hospital. Here he developed
an abscess of the liver, and it was de-
cided that the operation of the lapara-
tony would have to be performed as
last resort to save his life. The opera
ton was performed, and although
Young Delgado survived several days,
he finally succumbed as the result of
the fever.
Mr.. Delgado was born in this city and
lived nearly all his life here and in
BROOKLYN. He was educated in the
Cartier institute and was a graduate
from the Mount Pleasant Military
academy. He married Miss Granger
of Hudson. n. Y. some years ago. His
widow is now in New York. They
have one child.
c. B. Grone, brother-in-law of Del
gado. will see that the body is en-
balmed and sert to New York.

SMALLPOX IN HAVANA.
Alleged Source of Danger to the
United States.

New York, Jan. pa dispatch to
the Sun from Havana says: There are
now ZOOS cases of smallpox in Ha-
vana. AT Guanajay, in Pinar del Rio.
which has only 10000 inhabitants. there
are 46I cases. Yellow fever and ma
laria are also ravaging the country,
and it may be safely affirmed that the
sanitary condition of Cuba is far
greater danger to the United States
than the much feared bubonic plague
of India. Cuba is close to our coasts.
and there is daily communication be-
tween the island and the main land.
AT the end of March the decreasing
warm weather begins here, and then
diseases of a contagious nature spread
very rapidly. Cuba is now a focus of
diseases, and may become a source of
danger to the whole world.
The SMALLPOX was introduced here
by the 100000 soldiers from Spain. The
Spanish common people are not cleanly
in their habits, and, moreover, they
came to Cuba crowded by thousands

ROLLING MILLS RIOT.
Twelve Employees and Several Off
GERS Injured.

London, Jan. 2O.-The representative
of the United Associated Presses in
Vienna telegraphs that the employees
of the rolling mills in Anniamia, Hun
gary, having become disconnected with
the new pension scheme, became riot
Gus today and made a fierce attack on
a force of gendarmeS who had been
sent to the scene to restore order. The
officers attempted to dispense the
rioters, but the latter stood their
ground and d desperate fight ensued.
The lieutenant in charge Of the
gendarmes becoming convinced that his
force was not sufficient to quell the
riot by other means, finally gave the
order to fire upon the mob. AS a re-
suit of the gendarmes' fire, II of the
rioters were seriously wounded. A
number of the officers were also seri-
ously wounded during the melee. A
dispatch to the Central News says that
eight of the rioters were killed and
many were injured in the fight.

New York, Jan. 2O-A Sun special
from Washington says: Senior Cues
ada, charge d'affaires of the Cuban le-
cation in this city, says he has re-
ceived authoritative information that
General Weyler is following the tao
ties that he employed in the last Gu
ban war, when he inflicted all sorts
of indignities upon Cuban women. Sc
nor Quesada asserts that Weyler has
the idea that by Selling and throwing
into prison the female relatives of Gu
ban leaders he can compel those lead
ers to sue for peace.
Acting under his orders, AVercilla,
the governor of Puerto Principe, has
arrested four of the most prominent
ladies in Cuba. Quesada said yester-
day afternoon:
These ladies. who are the peers of
any women on earth, were dragged
through the streets of Puerto Principe
by Spanish soldiers as if they were
common criminals and were thrown
into prison.
There is not a hole in the lowest
SlumS of any American city half so
dirty or vile as a Spanish prison. The
ladies were placed in the same apart
ment with disorderly women, who had
for the purpose of making the indig-
nifty visited upon the ladies all the
more outrageous.
From this you can see what Wey-
Ter means by his alleged policy of
pacification. And this outrage is, we
are informed, only the beginning of
a general arrest of every decent wOm-
an in the Cuban cities now under
Spanish control who is either a rela-
tive of a Cuban patriot or who is
known or suspected of cherishing
sympathy for the Cuban cause.
Can anyone imagine for a mo-
ment," continued Quesada. that men
with drop of honorable blood in their
veins will submit to any proposals of
overtureS from a nation like Spain.
who makes war upon women instead of
bringing our leaders submissive to
SPANS feet. Weyler's present policy
Will make them all the more earnest
and vigorous in their efforts for free

selves and denounce our leaders were

upon them to weaken the determine
ton to wrest their homes and liberties
from Spanish control ! hope Amer
lean men who have mothers and
wives and sisters will ponder and
think over these terrible things and
consider whether such a thing should
be allowed at the very doors of their
country"
When questioned as to the blowing
up of the Spanish gunboat Relampago,
Senior Quesdda said: That is the best
answer yet given to all the rumors re-
garding propositions for home rule
that have been alleged to emanate
from the Cuban leaders,

ANOTHER EXPLANATION.

Mr. Duffin of Washington county,
who voted for Henderson on the pre-
ceding day, also desired to make an
explanation. This was construed to
mean that he intended to change his
vote to another candidate. and the as
semblage was all attention. But the
Henderson opponents were rudely dis
appointed when, at the close of an eX-
tended speech, he announced that he
would vote for Henry P. Henderson.
The election, he said, involved ques-
lions farther reaching than many of
the members realized. 1t had been the
understanding, when the members
were elected. that they should exercise
their careful judgment, after careful
consideration Of the merits of the can
didates. and there had been some
things done that he could not indorse
He recognized the integrity, the hon.
estv and the ability of all of the can
didates, but the people of Utah de-
tnanded that the conditions that had
caused so many heartburnings in the
past should be done away with. He
believed that the candidate who would
best accomplish this end was Henry
p. Henderson
AS ii was apparent to Mr.. Gibson
that speechmaking was the order of
the day, he announced that he would
vote for the choice Of the people, Mo-
SeS Thatcher.
