ever, Secretary Olney proposes to insist
that every opportunity 'be given Consul
General Lee to learn precisely how and
under what circumstances DR.. Ruiz met
his fate. If he was murdered the Span
ish Government will have to make prompt
reparation.
The only information thus far received
by this Government from Consul General
Lee is contained in two dispatches, one in
forming the department of Ruiz's arrest,
and the second announcing his death In
the Guanabacoa Jail under suspicious cir
cumstances. This cablegram called for a
reply. from the department, in which
Consul General Lee was instructed to
make prompt and full investigation. In
structions were also cabled to Minister
Taylor at Madrid, as already stated.
1t is not true that Consul General Lee
asked to have war ships sent to Havana.
An official statement to this effect was
made at the White House. The admins
tration has no intention Of sending a
fleet to Cuban waters.

Aimed at Illinois Hunters.

There is now little doubt that the game
laws of this State will be amended so that
all nonresident hunters will be compelled
to pay $25 license fee. 1t is decidedly
popular measure, one that is looked upon
almost as a declaration of war, and ON
every hand where hunters and sportsmen
congregate can be heard sentiments or
approval The Illinois hunter is denounc-
ed on every side. In line with the prevail
ing sentiment is the determination not to
enact provision preventing the shooting
of water fowl in the spring in this State.
1t is acknowledged that spring shooting
is an evil, that the ducks are unfit for
food and that to shoot them in the spring
materially reduces the number that come
back over this State in the fall flight. But
the fact that Illinois will not pass spring
shooting law is the popular excuse for
continuing it in this State.

The fire was generally accurate, and the
effect whitening. The Cretan insurgents
were driven pell nell from behind their
breastworks, and, throwing away arms
and accouterments, they hastily sought
places Of refuge from the kissing missiles
of the fleet. The deadly ping of their bull
lets across the empty streets ceased, and
as the firing Of the big war ships stopped
the cloud Of gunpowdcr smoke hoated
lazily northward over the calm sea.
The admirals issued statement direct

Theodori, not far from Platania. The

ArizOna's Big Claims.

The population Of Arizona in 1890
was 5000, including Mexicans, Indians
and half-breeds. The total is now
claimed to be $4,000. This is about
half the population fixed as the ratio
for representative in Congress. And
yet it is proposed to give this fraction
Of the congressional ratio two Senators
and representative in Congress and
three votes in the electoral college. It's
population is less than that OF Portland.

yet If it was admitted to the Union
with it's sparse population it would be

HOW UNCLE SAM SUFFERS.
The Cuban War Has Bad Effect On
Exports and Imports.


Exports and Imports.
The present Cuban revolution dates
from Feb. "a, 1895. In the preceding year,
1894. the exports of all American ports
to Cuba amounted collectively to more
than $2O,OOO,OOO. In the same year the
imports into the United States from Cuba
amounted to $75,67O,OOO, making total
commerce between the two countries OF
about $95, 100000 in one year. The hg-
ures of the fiscal year of 1896 show the
extent to which commerce between the
two countries has fallen off. The total
exports from American ports to Cuba
were S7,5OO,OOO, or about 80 per cent of
the former volume of business. From
Cuba into the United States were i'm
ported during the same period goods to
the value of $4O,O15, 900, or about 50 per
cent of the former volume of business.
The chief item of American commerce
with Cuba, the chief item of importa-
ton from Cuba into the United States, is,
of course, sugar, and this item has fallen
off about one-half. From 1895 to 1896
the importation of sugar into the United
States fell off from l, 800, OOO,O 900 to $780,
100000 pounds, from $40,00O,0 900 to $21,-
600, 900. The other important items of I'M
port into the United States from Cuba
are tobacco, bananas, drugs, wood and
ore. The American exports to Cuba IN
clude in an ordinary year -four to the
amount of 100000 barrels Git has now fall,
en- to about 800, 600, coal to the amount Of
100000 tons petroleum to the amount of
100000 gallons Git is now 100000, hams,
tallow, lard, cotton goods and machinery
The devastation Of Cuban plantations has
not only reduced the number of exporta-
BILE products of Cuba, but it has, moreover,
decreased the market in Cuba for Ameri-'
can products, for the planters, having no,
longer any valuable crops for export, are
unable to pay for the articles heretofore
sent to them from the United States
1t is estimated, on Cuban authority, that
apart from the actual expenses incident
to the prosecution of the war, the contin-
uance Of hostilities is costing fully $780,
100000 year. OF this sum, $5O, 1000, 900
is figured as the loss from the burned or
abandoned plantations, 100000 from the

Grecian Leader Warned.


War in grim earnest ragged Sunday in
Crete. Just week previous the fleets of
the powers landed blue jackets at Canea
to maintain the peace, and ostensibly to
prevent Greek troops landing at that port.
Sunday these same squadrons trained
their big guns on the strongholds of the
Cretan insurgents and shelled them from
their position. 1t was a day of the most
intense excitement in Halepa. From early
morning the insurgents had kept up gall
ing fire on the Turkish forts. The latter
returned the leaden compliments with
vigor, and what with the roaring of can
non and the whizzing of bullets thepeace-
ably inclined people in the town had u
frightful experience.
1t became evident in the forenoon that
the admirals on the cruisers were becom-
ing uneasy over the condition of affairs.
Dispatch boats fitted from war ship to
warship and flag signals were exchanged,
indicating that concerted action was being
arranged. Meanwhile the decks of the
cruisers were being prepared for action.
Guns were unmasked and marines were
lined up to meet all emergencies. The So
called rebels had been warned by couriers
bearing white flags that if their firing did
not cease the battle ships would take Il
hand in the desperate melee. These warm
ings were scoflingly disregarded, for upon
their receipt the fusilade from rebel rifles
only increased
The time for action had come, and the
tremendous roar of discharged shell
shook Halepa rs if an earthquake had oc-
CURED beneath it. The first shot had come
from Italian boats, and speedily all the
other war ships joined in the lombard

A young man, aged about % years, met

accident at ingalls,, Mich. Harry Har-

the track not far from the Ingalls, depot
and as freight passed along attempted to

thrown back, but regaining his feet he
made a second attempt, and failing, was

badly mangled. One leg was broken and
crushed and his head was crushed terri

Secretary Olney cabled Minister Taylor
at Madrid that DIR. Ruiz died under sus-

Jail, and directing the minister to impress
upon the Spanish Government the urgent
wish of the United States that all the
facts be made known with the least pos
sible delay. The Spanish are adopts at
making promises of this sort, but as rule
much difficulty is experienced in securing
their fulfllment. In this instance, how

Is evident the attitude of England is per-

Piraeus, British war ships, If reports from
Athens are to be credited, are helping

was held at Athens. at which an address
to the king was adopted pledging blood

Charged with Arson.

Charles Folsom, Of Clinton, was ar

rane at that village, on charge of arson,
and is now in Jail. 1t is charged that
Folsom fired and burned the hay barn
owned by his father-in-law, Giles Burt,
on Nov. 8 last This fire was enc of the
series of blazes at Clinton that stirred
the people up and resulted in the offering
of reward for the capture of the incen-
diary. The burning of the Cheesman
Hotel and the fire that nearly wiped out
the village occurred later, and the only
charge made against Folsom is that he
fired the Burt barn. Folsom is a hay and
stock buyer and has lived at Clinton for
some time
