There Is quite little excitement in ma

the coming camp. A great many believe
that'it.will be division camp, which will
include all of the companies In the state.
II such is the case, the encampment will
probably be held at Santa Cruz. If a
regimental camp is ordered it will be
held at either Santa Monica or San Di-

Court Martial.
Washington, Nov Ga telegram
came to the State Department to-day
from United States Acting Consul
Springer, mt Havana, as follows
.."Tial by court-martial of Competi-
tor prisoners will be held Monday next.
VIII attend"
There are five of these prisoners,
namely: Alfred Laborde. William Gil
dea. Ona Melton, Charles Barnett and
William Leavitt. They We're arrested
on the Competitor April %, 1896, on Il
charge of landing arms for the insur-
gents, and have been held In close con-
finement ever since. May s, 1896. they
were tried by naval court-martial and
sentenced to death. Only the most ell
ergetic acion by the United States gov
ernment prevented the immediate exc
cution of this sentence, and after ne
gotiations direct with Madrid. Weyler
having proved unrelenting. an order
WAS secured for new trial, the Ma
drid judicial reviewing authorities hav-
ing adjudged the proceeding informal.
The contention of our government
has been that these men were properly
subject TO the protection afforded by
the Gushing protocol and entitled TO
counsel, to be confronted with wit
nesses and all of the guarantees OF n
fair trial contained in that agreement.
The Spanish claim has been that the
men, being taken arms in hand, and
not on land, are excluded from the
benefits OF the protocol The news
now coming that they are to be tried by
court-martial again is not reassuring.
rs il amounts 10 an insistence by the
Spanish upon their contention. which.
IL carried out, will lead 10 the reimpo-
sition OF the death penalty, though
clemency may be extended by General
Blanco.

Is In no wise responsible for my acts as

lions signed by me and based on data

on my sole responsibility from grave
sense OF public duty. which l cannot
doubt is fully appreciated by the peo-

titled TO my testimony.
Il am sure that the present admins
tration is doing its entire patriotic
