Extract from an official letter Of in
structicns written by Assistant Secretary
of State Rockhill to an American consul in
Cuba:

sular office referred to, and a copy of 1t is
doubtless also on file in the State Depart

authorities. In his instructions to the
American consul, Mr.. Rockhill says:

this kind to report (referring to certain
Spanish outrages reported in the consul 8
previous letter to the State Department.,
mark your communications Confidential,
so that in case of inquiries from the SEN
ate for consular reports from Cuba your
reports need not be given to the Senate" "

You ore too young to know 1t now,
But sometime you shall KNOW
Look back ward, then, into the years
And see me here tonight

You are too young to know 1t now,
But sometime you shall know.

But he put il appearance in q sus- pieious manner, and was at once arrested The officers knew him and seeing that his hand was tied up, asked what was the matter. The negro said that railroad tie had fallen on his finger and mashed it. At this lanetUfe Officers Calpepper and Taylor, who were talking to the man, noticed q pair Of new sas- penders hidden in the bosom of his shirt. They at once placed WiI- Hams under arrest on suspicion.

Ills person was then ex- amined and in his pockets were found 9 pair of gold spectacles and a a number of handkerchiefs which he had undoubted stolen from some lady He accounts for the shooting i by saying it was accidently done on his way to Pine Bluff. He will be held for investigation, for 1t is be- lived that he was shot while com hitting burglary.
