IMPORTANT TO MARINERS.
The President Signs BH of the Utmost
Interest TO Masters and Pilots in
LARGE Hdrbors

WASHINGTON, q. c., Jan. 20.-Presi-
dent Cleyeland to-day signed bill which
is of the utmost interest to masters of all
vessels in large harbors. 1t is the bill pro-
viding that all vessels requiring engineers
and pilots above fifteen tons burden, car
rying freight or passengers for hire and
propelled by gas, fluid, naphtha, or elec-
trio motors, shall be made subject to all
Federal laws relating to the inspection of
huls and boilers and providing that all
such vessels shall be made to conform to
ali Federal laws relating to the regulations
of steam vessels passing each other, and
TO such further relations regarding fog
signals, lights, steering and sailing rules
as the Board of Supervising Inspectors O f
Steam Vessels shall deem necessary.
This new law will be welcomed by the
masters and pilots of all vessels coming
into or leaving large ports like San Fran
cisco. Heretofore steam or naphtha
launches, such as this bill now affects,
have been practically free launches"
entirely exempt from all duties or laws,
and subject apparently to the whim of the
man who was in command. They were
constant sources of danger both to them
selves and to larger vessels which they
met, and pilots and masters have for O.
long tfme been endeavoring to bring
about some legislation which will fasten
upon these little craft responsibilities
equal TO those now borne by large vessels.
The law goes into effect at once.

SENDS BUT FOUR NOTES.
Secretary 0iney's Response to the Senate s
Demand for Arbitration Treaty
CorresDOnde1ce

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 20.-In his
confidential message TO the Senate trans
mitting the correspondence In connection
with the general treaty of arbitration,
Secretary Olney sends but four notes, and
he says that this is all the correspondence
between the United States and Great
Britain relating TO the general treaty of
arbitration. He adds also that no corr e.
spondence "in regard to the treaty has
taken place with other powers.
Although the correspondence was sent
to the Senate with the seal of secrecy and
is carefully guarded by the committee it
can be authoritatlvely stated that there is
no need for MIR. Olney's solicitude in this
respect. Every one of the four notes trans
mitted to the Senate has been given to the
public in these dispatches, at least in sub
stance.
The first of the quartet is Lord Sails
bury's note to Sir Julian Pauncefote of
March 5, 1896 IN which, in connection
with the Venezuelan question, he reopens
the subject of foreign treaty and sub
mits six heads for treaty.
Then follows Mr.. Olney's note of April
II, 1896, in reply 10 which he rejects arti-
cles ~ and V of the proposed treaty, and
substitutes new arLlCle Nv, W1lCn IN ltS
essential points agrees with that article
in the treaty before the Senate.
On May 1S Lord Salisbury, replying to
Sir Julian, says after some reference to
Venezuela and other questions that might
be brought under general treaty of arbi-
tration:
In this viewI am plaesed to observe that
agree with Mr.. Olney, because l hold that in
discussing the safeguards by which general
system of arbitration should be sanctioned 1t
is important to bear in mind that any system
adopted between our two nations ought to be
such as can in principle be applied if neces-
sary TO their relations with other civilized
countries.
Touching upon that article OF the treaty
with respect to the mode of dealing with
territorial claims, it was apparent in this
note that the two Governments were still
apart. Mr.. Olney insisted that every
claim to territory against another
should go. as OF right, before
tribunal of arbitration, save in certain
cases, solemnly declared by the Legisla-
ture of each country to involve the
National honor and integrity and such
dispute shall be final and irrevoca bly, de-
cided without reservation of any further
powers to either party to interfere.

SINKING OF THE RELAMPAGo.
C4Ibans Rejoicing Deer the Obstruction

C1sbans Rejoicing Deer the Destruction
OF the Spanish Gumboat.
NEW YORK, N. Y, Jan. 20.-Glad It'd
ing 10 Cubaus in this city were those
which yesterday announced the sinking
OF the Spanish gunboat Relampago by
means of a torpedo while the ship was
hurrying to the assistance of the garrison
of Fort Guamo, on the Cuato River, the
most important inland waterway OF the
island.
Three weeks ago a letter was received
in this city in which the writer said that
the delay in beginning war upon Spain's
patrol fleet was due to the blunder of
those who shipped the wire and the
generator of electricity to be used in ex-
ploding torpedoes. The mistake had
been rectifed, and that the material
reached it's destination safely is proved by
the destruction of the Relampago on
Saturday of last week.
gentleman who knows the electrician
who accomplished the first marine victory
for Cuba libre said last night:
THE man under whose supervision the
insurgents have begun war on Spain's
gun boats is thoroughly profcientln In elec-
tricaI engineering, and l believe this new
departure will result in the loss OF many
more of Spain's gunboats.
DO you believe that torpedoes can be
placed in waters adjacent to HavanaP"
THAT will not be attempted. The field
of operations is sufficiently broad without
attem pting what would be foolish. The
torpedo service will devote its energy ex-
cIusiveIy to rivers navigated by the Span
80 I - \
chorages to which they retreat at night.
There are more than forty war vessels of
different kinds in Cuban waters. They
are seldom in Havana harbor. They will
be easy game when once our torpedo SER
vice has become in degree perfected. l
shall be disappointed If We do not hear of
other successful attacks upon Spain's feet

sideration of the contested election ca e
of Yost VS.. Tucker for the seat in the
Fifty fourth Congress from the Tenth dis
trict of Virginia. The majority of the
committee reported in favor of Tucker.
Walker (R.) of Pennsylvania and Bur
rows Cd of Michigan dissented and
recommended the seating of Yost. The
question at issue was as to the counting
OF certain imperfectly marked ballots.
The election was the first one held under
the walton Australian ballot law of Vir-
ginia.
Codding (R.) cf Pennsylvania made the
first speech in favor OF the committees S
report. Codding was followed by the con-
testant, Representa- tive e-elect Yost, who in
concluding a fervent appeal for justice
said:
The stigma of foul elections has dis
graced and debased the South for years;
its yearly influence has paralyzsd the
public conscienc'; but now, thank God,
in Virginia at least, the shock of this
election has reused the people from their
stupor.
1.-The fear of negro rule has disappeared,
but despite the scourge of public opinion
the guilty trlcksters still dare to bring
their infamy to The doors of Congress. II
you accept the result of their machina-
tons you prove their methods and give
them fresh license"
jenkins (R.) OF Wisconsin said that he
and three other Republican members of
the Election Committee had come to the
conclusion that the contestee (Tucker)
was entitled to retain his seat, and this
conclusion he intended to defend and
MAINTAIN even if afterward he was called
a Massachusetts mugwump. Laughter.
Grosvenor (R.) OF Ohio spoke for Yost.
He argued that the House was not TO be
circum scribed in the exercise of its right
TO inquire into the election of its mem bers
by State statute. He stated that the
case was full of fraud, despite the state
menis to the contrary, and he appealed to
members not to sustain it by their votes.
If they did they should never again prate
of the lack of purity of elections i'll the
South. His speech was frequently inter-
rupted by applause on the. part of his Re-
publican colleagues.
Daniel (R.) of New York, chairman of
E ections Committee l. made a strictly
legal argument to sustain the conclusions
of the minority of the committee that the
House was justified in using the ballot to
determine the intention of the voter, not
withstanding the requirements of the
State law.
At the conclusion of Daniels speech the
election case was temporarily set aside,
and Hull (R.) of Iowa reported a partial
agreement or the conierees on the army
appropriation bill. 1t was agreed to, and
the House insisted upon its disagreement
to the Senate amendments still in dis
pute.
1t was agreed that vote on the con-
tested election case be taken at 80 o'clock
tomorrow.
At sos the House adjourned until to-
| morrow.

means, finally gave the order to fire upon
the mob. AS result twenty OF the rioters
were seriously injured. A number of Off
GERS were also seriously injured during
the melee.

SMALLPOX AND MALARIA.
IIGrnltrI1 Conditions in Cuba Tha
Menace THE CoMntrU.

IIGrnltn1 Conditions in Cuba That
Menace THE Country.
NEW YORK. n. Y, Jan. 20-Advices
to the Sun from Havana say: There are
2063 cases of smallpox in Havana. At
Guanajay, in Pinar del Rey province,
which has only 10000 inhabitants, there
are 4O67 cases. Smallpox and malaria are
also ravaging the country, and it may be
safely said that the sanitary condition of
Cuba is far a 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
between the island and the mainland.
At the end of March the depressing
warm weather begins here, and then
diseases of a contagious nature spread
twice as fast as during the winter. Cuba
is now focus OF diseases and may become
a source of danger to the whole world.
The smallpox was introduced here by
the 200,0 600 soldiers from Spain. The
Spanish common people are not cleanly
in their habits, and, moreover. they come
to Cuba crowded by thousands in the
dirty steamers of the Campania Trans
Atlantica, in which no well-bred Ameri-
can would travel if he could possibly help
it. Under such conditions, these soldiers
land in this city, where there is no sewer
age system.
There is no hope of improvement in
this state of things under Spanish domi-
nation. The municipal laws do rot allow
the city councils to take any steps in the
matter without authorization from the
captain general who must affix his sigma
ture to any loan raised for sanitary works,
and, furthermore, the municipalities are
all in the hands of Spauiards. most of
whom have not the least notion of hy-
gienic requirements

he might possibly be Piero Delgado, one
OF Maceo's lieutenants, for whom reward
OF $4,000 had been offered. The young man
was sent to San Am brosia Hospital, where
he developed an abscess OF the liver ana II
was decided that the operation OF laparat-
omy would have to be performed as
last resort to save his life. The operation
was performed. and though Delgado sur
vived several days, he succumbed as
result OF the fever.
MIR. DeIgado was born in this city and
lived nearly all his life here in Brooklyn.
He was educated in The Carlisle Institute.
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, a brother-in-law of DeIgado, will
see that the body is embalmed and sent to
New York.
