A BUTTERiNE COMPROMISE
rho Armours and New York State May
Come TO an Agreement.

ALBANY, n. Y, Dec. 2s.-The state
department of agriculture, the at
torney generals office and the special
counsel engaged in the prosecution OF
the Armours Of Chicago for damages
amounting to 81, 700, 00) for violation
Of tho dairy laws in the distribution
Of oleomargarine throughout the
state, find themselves In n p~rcdicamcnt
that seems to fo~rcshadow failure.
When q recent court order was pro-
mulgatcd, giving the state counsel
the right to examine the books Of the
various railroad companies for cvi.
dence as to shipments, IT was believed
that tho conviction of the Armours
would be easily accomplished. 1t was
found, however, that tho same court
order refused the state changes of
venue and compelled the commission
ers OF agriculture and the state coun-
sci to prosecute the suits, OF which
there are a score, in the counties in
which the violations arc said to have
occurred. This would mean endless
litigation without much prospect of
result.
Some time ago the Armour people
sought to make an agreement with
the state authorities TO pay a certain
amount IL the suits should be dropped,
and promised to deliver no more olco-
margarine in the state. The propo-
sition has been submitted to the gov
crnor, and, while he believes the pros
ccution should go on il there is any
chance to convict, as n lawyer he is
inclined to the idea that the acceptance
of the proposition will be in the end
more advantageous to the state.

SPAIN UNDULY STIRRED UP
Rabid Madrid Talk Il rncailcd For
woodford's Last Note.

WOOdford's Last Note.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2s.--Thc officials
here are somewhat surprised at the
exhibition OF feeling at Madrid over
the latest note Of Minister Woodford,
delivered to the Spanish foreign office
last Friday. While the note itself
will not be made public at present 1t
Is said that there is no reason what
ever why IL should be withheld save
the fact that the preceding steps in
the negotiations have not been given
out Possibly the correspondence will
be shortly called for by Congress, in
which case IL Is not likely to be with.
held on grounds Of public policy.
The last note presented by Minister
Woodford was In answer to the
Spanish note called forth by MIR.
Woodford's first note, after his arrival
ut Madrid. In the former the United
States minister pointed out the inter-
est of this country in an early termi-
nation Of the struggle in Cuba and
nsked when such n conclusion could
be expected. The Spanish government
acknowledged United States interest
in the matter, but suggested, after
stating what IL intended to do to ANA
eliorstc conditions in Cuba, that this
country could best exercise its good
offices by stopping filibustcring. To
this Mr.. Woodford responded with his
note OF last week.
This last note Is said 20 be n purely
ar~gumentativc statement of the posi-.
tion taken by the United States and
the facts set out are substantially
those OF the presidents message to
Congress, of which IL was supposed the
Spanish public had been fully advised
through the newspapers. The most
forcible statement in the note Is based
upon the facts collected and published
recently by tho United States treas.
ury department, exhibiting the great
expense to which the United States
had been put by reason Of its efforts
to patrol m enormous coast line in
the pursuit of a few %flibusters, and
the remarkable success of the govern.
ment officials In stopping these cxpe

A $40, 900 CHRISTMAS GIFT.
what Bob %Fitzummons Found In His
Stocking From the yerIscops Find,

StOckinX from the NerfscOpe Fund.
CHICAGO, Dec. 2s.-A $40, 600 check
from the Neriscope company was one
OF the things that helped put Cham
pion Fitzsimmons in such good humor
for Christmas. There has been much
gossip as to the profits made from the
veriscopc feature Of the Fitzsimmons-
Corbett fight, the scheme having been
alternately called a failure and n big
success. Fitzsimmons, when asked
what kind of Il Christmas he was hav.
ing, said:
well, l ought to feel pretty good.
/ got n check for SlO,O0o for my share
OF the profits from the v~erisco pe."
Manager Julian explained that the
payment was the second that had
been made, and was for five months
exhibition. The details of the con.
tract between Fitzsimmons, Corbett
and the vcriscopc company have not
been made public, nor has any defin.
tie idea been given Of the earnings OF
the enterprise, but Fitzsimmons Is re.
puted to receive IL per ccnt OF the pro-
fits from the fight pictures. This
would indicate that tho pictures had
realized nearly $4,000 during the last
Eve months.

DISTRESS IN CUBA.
state Department Again Calls Upon the
American Public to Give AID.

WAsHINoToN, Dec. q .-The most
profound distress prevails among the
thousands Of people in Cuba. Starva-
ton not only impends, but Is an actual
fact. The President has been inform
cd OF the facts from sources whose
credibility can not be doubted. He
has gone TO the length OF his consti-
t%utional power in calling the state OF
affairs to the attention Of tho Ameri-
can people. The State department
has used oil OF its authority to miti-
gate the conditions there, and the
letter to the public sent out by Secre-
tary Sherman the day before Christ
mas pointed out the way to further
alleviate the miserable condition of
the reconcentrados.
To-day s., 900 was received by As.
sistant Secretary Day from certain
charitably-disposed persons, whose
