SPAIN ROUsED TO ACTION.
Death of Ruiz 10 he Vigorously In
yesfigafed.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., February 20
Official cablegrams from Madrid, received
at the Spanish Legation, regarding the
death of Ruiz, show that the govern
ment Is aroused to the most energetic
action. and that orders have gone ior-
ward TO Cuba to have the most thorough
investigation into the affair. This is re-
cardless of the question of Ruizs ma
tionality, for whether he is an Amerl-
can or not, the government has deter
mined that II a crime has been COM
mitted those guilty shall be punished.
In the mean time, no efforts are being
shared to determine whether Ruiz was
an American citizen or not, and uhder
both State Department and legation au-
thorities the records arc being searched.
Co far It can only be found that Ruiz.
tben a dental student, took out his first
naners declaring intention in Philadelphia,
December 10. 1877. This was near the
CLOSE of the last revolution. He soon
graduated as a dentist, and returned 10
Guanabacoa in 1880. where he has prac-
ticed ever since. 1t cannot be learned
that he ever returned to the United
States. nor does it appear that ne lived
here long enough to acquire naturaliza-
tion. However the Madrid Government
will nush the investigation of his death
inst as forcibly as possible and If Gene
raj Lees charges are correct, that the
Doctor was killed or driven to suicide by
his iailers. the severest punishment OF
military law will be executed on those
responsible.

ALABAMA CLAIMS AWARD.
Eight Million Dollars said to ke-
main in Uncle Sans Hands.

LONDON. February 26.-In the House
Of Commons to-day Mr.. Thomas q.
Bowles, Conservative member for Lynn
Regis, asked whether it was true that the
sum of 100000 of the Alabama claims
award still remained in the hands Of the
Government OF the United States, ana
what prospect there was that any part OF
II would be repaid to Great Britain after
the claims for compensation had been
satisfied.
Right Hoa George n. Curzon, Under
Foreign Secretary. said it was his bellef,
from accounts published in the United
States. that certain portion OF the award
still remained with the American Govern
ment. 1t would be contrary to the un-
dertakings of Great Britain i'm the treaty
of Washington, made in 1871. 10 request
the return Of any sum left over after the
claims against the award had been salts
fed.
Mr.. Bowles: Is there any prospect or

pay any surplus?

DAUNTLEss STILL IN CUSTODY.
suspicion of Combination of Fill
clustering Expeditions.


WASHINGTON. February S.-The al
legged flibustering steamer Dauntless, m
whose behalf a suit was filed yesterday
against the Collector OF Customs at jack
sonville, declined TO accept the condl-
tions imposed by the Treasury Depart
ment for her departure from that port,
and, as result. was not permitted TO
leave. 1t is learned at the Treasury De-
partment that permission was asked by
the owners of the Dauntless, then in
the custody of the Collector, TO permit
the vessel TO proceed on a wrecking ex-
petition to Fernandna. Fla. The sug-
gestion was made by the Dauntless peo-
pie that an officer OF the Federal Gov
ernment accompany the steamer as GUS
todian. The Treasury Department grant,
ed the permission. imposing. however
the further condition that afiidavits
should be furnished that there was no
intention TO violate the navigation and
neutrality laws. but the owners OF the
Dauntless declined to make the sworn
statements, and the steamer was obliged
to remain at Jacksonville.
A renewal Of the application for per-
mission to allow the Dauntless TO pro-
ceed from Jacksonville TO Fernandina.
without conditions other than the pre-
sence of a Federal officer on board. was
made 10 the Treasury Department to-
day. 1t is unlikely that the department
will change its first decision IL Is sus-
pected there that a combination Of fiji
clustering expeditions Is being planned.
The Bermuda was reported to have left
Bermuda for Fernandina several days
ago. and the officers OF the revenue patrol
are on the lookout for her. AS Fernan-
dina is also the proposed destination OF
the Dauntless. the department officials
think there is good ground for proceed
ing with the utmost care in dealing with
the steamers suspected Of being engaged
n fllbustering operations.

NATIONAL BASEBALL LEAGUE.
Season to Open April 22-Change
I'm Regard to Coaching.


BALTIMORE. MD, February Co.
The league of baseball magnates. in ses-
session here to-day. promulgated the
schedule for the current year.
The season will open on the POD Of
April. except in Boston, where there
will be one preliminary game April 18th,
which is local holiday. The Cham
pions will have Boston as the attraction
for the opening day; Brooklyn will play
I'm Washington, and New York in Phila-
delphia In the West, st. Louis will
have the Pittsburg team for the opening
day; Louisville will have Cleveland. and
Cincinnati will entertain Uncle Anson' S
Colts.
1t was determined that the league
should undertake the, defence Of the
equity suit brought by Rusie In New
Jersey, II being the sense of the meeting
that the reservation clause in the ma
tional agreement must be protected at
any cost. Messrs. Soden, Of Boston, and
Freedman Of New York, and President
Young were appointed a committee to
represent the league, and they were
given plenipotentiary powers to combat
the great twirler in the courts OF New
Jersey. or elsewhere.
ing was to increase the membership OF
the National Board OF Arbitration from
four to six. James a. Hart. of Chicago,
and Frank de Haas Robson. of Cleve-
land. were added 10 the board.
The only pronounced change In the
rules is in regard to coaching. Hereafter
but one coacher win be allowed on the
lines. when there is only one man on a
base. When more than one player has
reached first base. a second coacher can
go to the field. and use his lungs to his
hearts content.
The league decided TO give President
Young absolute power In the appointment
of official scorers. This feature will
doubtless affect the average of some
players, as IT is intended to stop the
playing of favorites by appointing men
qualified to score the game without fear
or favor.

PERRINE LAND-GRANT REGULAR.
SO Finds the Committee which Has
Investigated IL.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., February o.
The Perrine grant, involving 1900 acres
Of land in Florida, which has been under
investigation for the past week by the
Senate Committee on Public Lands, Is
found by this committee to be regular
in every respect None Of the charges
made by those attacking the grant are
sustained. The committee report that
the testimony shows that the grant was
issued in the regular course of business,
in accordance with the law. and that
the evidence upon which the patents
were issued had not the faintest sus-
picion Of fraud attached to II. The evil
dence further showed that the Perrine
heirs had expended something like $4,000
in improvements upon the property, in
order TO protect their grant and that at
a fair valuation, the whole property was,
possibly, worth no more than that sum.
The attack against the validity of the
grant came from peoDle who had en-
tered into contracts with the heirs, and
who. the committee say, pursued this
policy in order TO force a better bargain
with the owners of the land.

GEN. LEES ORDERS.
ALLEGED INSTRUCTIONS THAT HE
AVOID FURTHER FRICTION.
WHY he HOLDS HIS POST.
Rumor That He Has Intimntions
from High Republican Source
That He VIII he Supported by the
Incoming Administration.

HABANA. February 26.--It is understood
here that Secretary Olney, as further evi-
dence Of his and President Cleveland's 8
friendship for Spain, has instructed Con-
sul-General Lee to act with caution in his
dealings with the Spanish authorities, and
to spare no effort TO avoid further fric-
tion with them. BY Spaniards here this is
taken to mean that General Lee, to meet
the appreciation of his superiors in office,
must not be as persistent as he has been
heretofore in pressing for recognition OF
the rights Of American citizens. 1t is ru-
mored that the reason why General Lee
still holds his post is that he has been in
duced to do so by private intimations from
a high Republican source that he will be
supported by the incoming Republican ad-
ministration in upholding American rights

rumors of alleged difficulty in the pay

The note adds that the relations be-

which are like those that have already

the rebellion in Cuba by Americans. The
terms of Minister Taylor's recent note
to the government were not abnormal.
