panied by her sister, and Mrs. Calwell.
relative.
Newcomb was put on the stand. and.
with rather broad as, told his story OF
the transaction. He told how he met
White. in the Hoffman House, New York.
when he (Newcomb) was trying TO bet
s4,OOO-4 to Ion McKinley's election.
White approached him. saying he was
reporter, and that he could place the
money. Later White suggested that
more money could be made by doing
bookmaking business on the races in Bal
timore. Newcomb wanted White TO put
up money, but he offered notes. These
were refused, and White said he was
sure he could get the money In Balti-
more or Richmond.

White then came to Baltimore. and met
Newcomb at Mt. Royal Depot, November
9Th. and they went TO the Mt Vernon

additional $1,000 for him. He would, he
said. place IL in a box and deposit ii at
the Eutaw House, for safe-keeping. The

ceived a receipt. which said that the
5000 went into the business Of New
comb. White & Co.. and 81 1000 was de-
posted in the cash-box Of Daton, White
& Co.
FIRST DAYS BUSINESS.
The DAVIS business resulted in a loss
of s2sS. which the witness looked upon as
triAing. He said White was not a part
ner. Newcomb also said he did not see
White again until after White was ar
rested in Norfolk when he walked up and
took him by the hand saying, Hello.

And now the battleship Indiana and the
cruiser Brooklyn are in trouble. We are
sorry for them. We regret that any ship
in our navy should meet with the
slightest injury or misfortune. At the
same time, we hope that the experience of
the Indiana and the Brooklyn will divert
the attention of the critics from the
Texas-for a little while, at least.

THE ALMOST RIPE.

News comes from abroad that 10000
Carlsts volunteers are awaiting the sig
nal of Den Carlos TO rise against the
present dynasty OF Spain. and 40 one
can tell just when the blow will be
struck. Every crisis Of Importance In
Spain since 1890 has been followed by a
Carlist uprising. and although they have
been defeated time and again. they have
grown stronger and stronger, and to-
day their chances for success are be-
lleved to be better than at any period
of their history. Certainly the loss of
Cuba would bring these people to the
front, and the opinion obtains in Eu-
rope that such an event would bring
them nearer TO the goal than ever before.
IT. indeed, 1t did not crown their efforts
with success. With the removal Of Can
ovas, and no strong hand near to carry
forward the present Government. the
romantic figure of Don Carlos looms up
and inspires enthusiasm which Is dan
gerous TO existing conditions in the ma
ton.
ihere are vast number of people in
spain who would gladly hail Carlos as
King, and had he been less welded to
TIC old notions OF sovereignty he might
nave grasped the scep,re in 1865, when
Sargasta as the representative of the
people went to London and rendered him
the crown on certain conditions. The
conditions might have been complied
with. but Carlos, true to his race, re-
| plied: When l come to my thrcne I
shaii rule as see fit." Sagasto had
nothing else to do hut to return to Ma
Grid and report. Don Carlos, no doubt
mas learned thing or two since 1865,
ana II Is said when he has another op-
portonIty-which many believe is an
ptoachlhg-he will not so nearly initiate
inc role OF the Kaiser, in the cndcavor
% impress the people with his belief In

WHAT MINISTER wo0DroRD SAID.

1t now appears that Minister Wood
timatum TO the Duke of Tetuan, the
Spanish Minister Mt Madrid, In his In
terview q few days slcice on the Cuban
question. He. no doubt-indeed it Is
authorltatively stated-that he declared
that there must be limit to further
hostilities In Cuba. and that the United
States would take action when the
limit was reached, leaving the Spanish
Government to name reasonable time
In which to bring the war to close. or
course, 1t remains to be seen what the
Minister'S statement will amount TO-,
Spain has been warned before and,
therefore, 1t may be said that there is
nothing new in this policy. She has
been warned in language as plain as
diplomacy permits, of the clecessi,y felt
by the United States finally to protect
our interests and the interests of hu-
mainly In whatever way circumstances
may require. Both Congress and the
PRESIDENT have indirectly warned her
before. and yet The war continues to the
destruction of the best interest of this
country and the ruin Of the island. 1t
may be that the Spanish Foreign Office
may view Minister Woodford's express
sions in light different from former
representatives OF this Government on
the same question, and il may be that II

Mite action, but this remains to be seen,

NO USE FOR HIM HERE.

According TO the Philadelphia Ledger
the Mexican authorities have arrested
n man whom they declare to be Jose
Ventre, notorious anarchist, forced TO
leave Spain on account of his conncc-
ton with the Barcelona assassins. and
that he is TO be deported to this country
1t Is now in order says our contcm-
porary, and we agree with it, for our
authorities to watch for the attempted
carrying out OF this plan and Illustrate
It. We have no more use for annr-
chists. particularly OF the Barcelona
assassin type, than Mexico or Spain,
and they should not be allowed an asy-
lum here Anarchists are enemies of
society and OF law and order, and de-
serve no consideration or sympathy
They and their kind should be eX-
cluded Just as the community would
shut out a pestilence.
