HAVANA, Feb. 6.-News of the pro.

cable dispatches from Madrid to La
Lucha and the Diario de Ia Marina,
has not produced great enthusiasm,
because no one here believes that the
reforms will have any eff.
feet in stopping the war. The
only persons who appear satisfied
are few Spaniards of the old reform
list party, the officials and half dozen
autonomists VINO follow the marquis
of Montoro. The thoughtful element
of all classes is very much dissppoint'
ed. The Cubans see in the scheme
merely4 q rehash of the futile A barzuzs
law Of 1895. without any real conces'

Those who are interested In tariff
reforms say that the plan of SenoI
Canovas can have NO practical benefit
for Cuba, inasmuch as It leaves un'
touched the unjust commercial priv
ileges Of Catalonia and other northern
provinces Of Spain.
They do not see, furthermore, In
what degree the general budget Of the
island will be reduced. as the council

Complications have arisen which

to the counting Of the electoral votes
next "wednesday. Representative
George Washineton Murray, the only
colored member Of the house, who rep
reseuts the Charleston district, will be
the chief actor In the dramatic cpl.
sode.
He has Just returned from South
Caroline, where he was In consultation
with the leading republicans Of the
Palmetto state. He b armed with .
monster petition, signed by thousands
Of republicans Of the state, protesting
against the counting Of the electoral
vote and asking for an investigation Of
the election laws and the state consti.
tuition.
The claim is made that the election
laws and the state constitution upon
which they are based are not In accord
with the federal constitution.
While the dispute over the vote oi
South Carolina can not in any way af.
feet the final result, II may give rise tc
complication Of serious nature. The
best authorities agree that the petition
can not be ignored, and the insestiga'
tion Of the precedents shows that
when such protest 10 entered the
count must immediately stop until the
question is settled.

Captain, i will notify you that urysess

eye twinkled with good humor, and
he turned serene and benignant face

Toombs heard this look of bewilder-

over his face, but not word fell from
his lips. He saluted the commander
and bowed himself out
Did he march his company against
the. enemy the next day?' was my nat

NO. replied White, ''he said nothing
more about it. He remained at his
post and was an exemplary officer dur

was not chaffed about the affair, either.

TooMBs' AWFUL THREAT.
How General Scott Quietly Made
Him a Laughing-Stock.

When General Robert ToombS of
Georgia was a young man in his TWEEN
ties he raised a volunteer company and
ioined General Scott, who was then
conducting a campaign against the In
dams in Florida
Even in his early youth Toombs was
noted for his self-confidence and his
aggressive bearing.
He was without military training
and had never submitted to rules and
discipline, at college or anywhere else.
The youngster had an imperious will,
and regarded no human bing as his su-
perior.
Naturally, when he met General Scott
if was a. case of oil and water-they
would not mix.
Private James White, who served in
q Georgia company during that war,
laughs to this day over a tilt between
CAPTAIN Toombs and General Scott.
The General knew the character Of
his red enemies, and he was in no
hurry to attack them in the positions
which they had chosen. He waited,
day after day, determined not to move
forward until he was satisfied that he
would be successful, and would not
valuable lives.
The delay did not suit the Georgia
Captain He fretted, fumed and swore
and did not attempt To conceal his con-
tempt for the slow methods of his
commander.
One night Toornbs felt that he could
stand 1t no longer.
The indignant Captain paid visit
to the Generals tent, where. he found
Scott engaged in pleasant converse
ton with a dozen officers of high rank
The Georgian was a man of superb
physique, the finest-looking American
of his generation, and when he march
ed into the tent with flashing eyes and
a defiant look everybody gazed ex-
pectantly in his direction.
General Scott greeted him pleasantly,
and invited him to join the circle OF
military men who were telling stories
of camp life.
General Scott" said Toombs in
stern voice, Il desire TO know, sir,
whether the army will march against
the enemy within the next few days"

Queens household. He held many po-
sitions of minor Importance until 1893,
when he was made Viceroy of India.
His appointment was received with
general appreciation. He has success
fully handled several difficult problems
in the Government of India. Lady Ell
gin, ninth daughter of the Earl of
Southesk, to whom he was married in
1876, has busted herself in the work of
uplifting women of India. Lord Elgin
is a man of ability and bravery and
will no doubt be able to handle the
present combinations.
