CASTELAR'S WORDS.
Criticism of the Queen Regent
of Spain.
STATEMENTS CALLED TREASON.
said she should Give Up Her Powers
A Debate over the Matter In the
Chamber Of Deputies.

New York.-A cable 10 the World
from London says: The passages in
senior Castelar's article in Petit Revue
Internationale ON which the eminent
Spanish Republicans enemies demand
his prosecution for high treason read as
follows:
lam bound to say that the court in
terferes dangerously with political
affairs. 1t has gravely compromised
itself by interventions not in keeping
with its character and proper freedom
from responsibility which Regent can
only possess when courtiers have moth
ing to do with DEGREES Of Ministers or
laws of Parliament In these direc-
tions the Regent has transgressed both
the letter and the spirit of the consti-
tuition, thereby depriving parliament
tary institutions of their proper effect
and force in regulating affairs Of state.
The Regent procured mediation by
the Pope without ministerial authorize
tion-an encroachment on the constitu-
tional rights of her advisers-creating
a precedent fraught with danger to
good government.
Again, the Regent displayed open
preference for Polavieja over Weyler,
thus paralyzing the policy and efforts
Of the latter instead of giving them fair
trial.
Another instance of the Queen
Regents unwarrantable interference is
her action TO bring about the interior
ence of foreign powers at Washington
TO secure an armistice at any price.
Spain should not treat with foreign
powers except through her Ministers. -
Then Casterlarlikens the Queen Re-
gent Maria Christina TO MarieAntoinette
and calls the former the Austrian. y
lie suggests that she hand over the
reins OF government TO the Infanta
Isabella, her sister-in-law.
Madrid.-Senor Accurate, Republi-
can, spoke in the Chamber of Deputies
against the proposal that the House
should authorize prosecution of
Senior CASTELAR,, the distinguished Re-
publican statesman, for his article at
lacking the Queen Regent. He con-
tended that the Queen Regent was not
inviolable, like monarch, and he re-
called the conduct of previous regents,
which had been criticised without caus-
ing a scandal.
Senior Sagasta replied: Parliamentary
immunity is worthy Of respect; but
the inviolability Of the crown ought
to be defended with the utmost energy.
Parliamentary immunity does not
extend to acts outside the chambers
of Parliament, and it is pity that
precious time should be wasted in such
a discussion.
The House then decided to pass the
order Of the day, and discussion of
the budget was resumed.
Senior Casterlar, who is now at Ali
cante, has declared to an interviewer
that he will not come to Madrid to de-
iend himself, observing at the same
time that the article in question does
not attack the Queen Regent, but the
courtiers; and this has been permitted
under absolute monarchs. 2

Tampa. -Colonel j. X. Dorst, who
was in charge of the recent expedition
on the steamer Florida, describes the
condition OF the women and children

supplies of arms, ammunition and pro-
visions We're landed, it was met by A

OUR TRADE WITH CUBA.
Last Year It Amounted to but S47,@5S,51o
 Compared With S1O2 ,s64 BOA in 1890.

Washington, June 1S-A significant report on our trade with Cuba from 1887 to 1897, prepared by Chief Hitchcock Of the foreign markets section of the ag- ricultural department, has been pro- mulgated by Secretary Wilson. The statistics show very clearly the effect of present hostilities in Cuba upon the commercial intercourse of the United States with that island.
 During the last finance year, 1S9b, the total value of our Cuba trade amount to only $47, 7,25S,610, as compared with $102, 1864, ,204 In 1893, the year preceding the breaking out of the war. This IS a falling off of 50 per cent in three years. Returns already available for the cur rent fiscal year indicate still further decline, the records for the nine months ending March 31, 1897, placing the total value of the trade for that period as low as $14,926,S17.
 At this rate the figures for the finance year 1897 will hardly reach S2O,- 0Oo,OO0, or less than one-f1fth the value recorded for 1S93

WHY THE rRUsr WAs FORMED.
American Tobacco Company Organized to
 Defray Advertising Expenses.

American Tobacco Company Organized to Defray Advertising Expenses. New York, June 1S.-When the coa- spiracy case against the American To bacco company's directors was resum- | ed to-day, James B. Duke, president of the company was in court. | Theodore E. Allen, the organizer of the company, was recalled to the wit ness chair. He said that in 1888 alone the firm of W. Duke & Sons paid out $50S, 900 for advertising. This expense was due to the competition carried on by the other firms which are now a part of the trust. In the same year Allen S Ginter spent more than $250, 900, and Kinney Brothers an immense sum.
 q was talking to MT. Butler, of Kin ney Brothers" said the witness, "and | the expenditure of these large sums of money was discussed. Mir. Butler said it was ridiculous to spend so much, but they had to do it or lose their trade, as all the others were spending | freely.
 | T suggested that they could get around this difficulty by combining. He said that would be good scheme. Af- rewards I spoke to MT. Duke about it and he was pleased with the idea. I then consulted with the others and finally arranged a meeting at which the combination was agreed upon. The i first definite talk was in July or early in August, 1889, when James R. Duke said he thought a pool would be the best thing. In that way he said the firms could stop advertising as they were doing, and without increasing the price of cigarettes, could add enormous ly to their protits.''
 MT. Choate MT. Rollins and MT Full CT took turns at objecting to this tes- timony, but it finally went in and they recorded exceptions at every point
 MT Allen said that he had received several letters from Einstein and Townsend and was asked to bring all he had, dated since 1892, to court | Peter Hauptman, one of the largest tobacco de alers west of the Alleghe- nies testified:
 q received letter from the Ameri- can Tobacco company. In this the con- pany notified me that in the future they would make me no more consignments of cigarettes, but would be glad to sell me cigarettes without discount or any allowance. had a standing order fol cigarettes, but it W as st opped by the trust at this time.
 "I ordered from the Independent fac- tories direct, but they would not sell to me. After that I was unable to get any cigarettes direct until June, 1 S96.'
 MT. Hauptman said that they not only shut off his supply of cigarettes but also the plug and cut tobaccos he | had been buying.
 Was it owing to this that two of your salesmen left you and Set up fol themselves as agents fthe American Tobacco company"
 MT Choate objected and the question was not argued.
 This ended MT. Hauptman's testi- mony and court adjourned until Mon- | day morning.

Upon His Return From Europe.
 Providence, R. l., June 18.--At the meeting of the corporation of Brown University held Thursday afternoon the views of President E. Benjamin An- drews on free silver and the tariff was alluded to in a guarded fashion and al committee consisting of Chancellor Wm. Goddard, ex-Chief Justice Durfee and Dean Francis Wayland of Yale was appointed to confer with the president on his return from Europe, regarding the best interests of the university. Dis- satisfaction with the attitude of Pres- ident Andrews on these questions has existed for some time. While these views were not alluded to specifically the remarks of Congressman Joseph H. Walker of Worcester, who opened the discussion, were well understood to re- fer to them. The work of President Andrews of the university was highly praised by all the members of the cor- poration and he was declared by Dr. w. w. Keen of Philadelphia to be, next to President Wayland, the greatest pre- ident Brown has ever had.
 President Andrews will return from Europe, his health much improved, on July 1.

Cooper Beats Bald.

Utica, N. Y, June 1S.-In the state circuit races to-day, Cooper beat Bald in the final of the half-mile open
 Jenny led to the stretch, when Cooper ran by him with Bald hanging close. Newhouse followed in the wake of the two, who fought desperately down the stretch As they crossed the tape. Cooper's forward hub was just clear of Bald's wheel. Bald asked to have Cooper disqualified for getting in his way, but the race was plainly fair. The fastest mile of the day was the first heat of the mile handicap, when Bald, from scratch went around the bunch at the quarter and finished in PIP 2-5.

At POughkeepsie.

Poughkeepsie, N Y, June 1S.-Coach Courtney was hopping mad when he
 came in from his session with the Cor nell crews this evening. He had taken the Varsity and freshmen out with the intention of taking advantage of the splendid conditions that prevailed to give them a trial of two miles. but was deprived of the opportunity by the swells from passing steamers and sev- eral newspaper boats that hovered
 about his crews. The two principal Cornell crews aleft the boat house at 6 o'clock and rowed leisurely up the river at a pace of twenty-one strokes a min
 ute to the ice house, two miles above the bridge, the launches following in the wake of the Courtney boat Near the ice house Courtney headed his boats down stream
 The Harvard Varsity, which every body believes is trained to the satisfac- tion of Coach Lehman, took only a
 short row this evening, doing ten or twelve short stretches of not over two
 minutes each. A friend of Harvard predicts that Lehman will not send
 his men over the course on time more
 than once more before the race It is an open secret that the crimson has all ready done the four miles in consider ably less than twenty minutes. Not withstanding this fact if Cornell and Harvard wer to row race tomorrow the former would be the favorte at
 even money or possibly at odds of five to four.
 Everybody is waiting impatiently to
 see Yale. Her boat house was com pleted to-day and the Stuyvesant man.
 sion is all erady for her to take pos session on Sunday when the crews will come around from New London on a private yacht.
 The Harvard freshmen are quite as popular, If not more so than the var sity. The youngsters have made such great improvement under MT. Sorrow s direction that their stock has gone up
 many points.
 The Columbia varsity stole a march
 this evening and sneaked over the
 course on a time row. The time was
 not given out, but the crew did not look
 to be rowing very fast.
 The three Pennsylvania boats left
 their quarters at o'clock and rowed to the starting line, Ward coaching them from the Queen City on the way up The three crews started compar-
 atively even, coming down the course.
 The first varsity caught the water beautifully and took the lead at the very start, increasing 1t with every stroke At the second mile they were at least five lengths ahead of the sec
 ond varsity and freshmen, who rowed
 neck and neck race, and the senior T. |, T
 mile, at the end of which they had ran into the ferryboat's wash and had to
 stop.
 The time for the distance was not
 made known, but the last mile was
 rowed in less than five minutes. It
 was by far the best account that the
 Pennsylvanias have given of them-
 selves since they came here.

PRACTICED BY STARLIGHT
COACH COOK KEEPS HIS MEN HARD
 <lT WORK.

Last Night Both Yale Crews Were Out
 Until Nine O'clock-Over Two-NIile
 Course the Freshman Crew Pulled Out
 Ahead-Wicks Considered a Good Sub-
 stitute for Simons.
 Gales Ferry. June 1S.-The Yale crews finished their work of the day by starlight. As the examinations were still on MT. Cook decided to give the crews rest this afternoon, but the work this evening more than made up for the lost time, and 1t was after 9 o'clock when the men finished work for the evening.
 The crews left the boat house at z o'clock and headed down the river. Both crews were sent over the two-mile course on time, and as usual the fresh- men pulled out ahead. The freshmen were in measure handicapped by the presence of new man in the bow, as Simons' examination was unsatisfacto- ry and he returned to New Haven this afternoon. Wickes, however, proved an admirable substitute, and after the crew had been at work short while 1t was not apparent that there was new man in the boat. The crews padded near the navy yard for warming up practice, and then raced up the river.
 Both crews rowed a low stroke and kept splendid form. The new paper shell built by Waters of Troy was tried for the first time to-day, but the rig ging adjustment did not prove satis- factory, and after few changes an- other test will be given tomorrow. The crews will finish their practice work on the Thames tomorrow, and to-mor- row night the shells will be shipped to Poughkeepsie and early Sunday morn ing the crews will take their departure on the yacht Peerless.
 The accidents of the past two days to the Yale men have been the only hard luck of their sojourn here, and it will necessitate Dick Schweppe of the freshman crew giving up rowing for the season on account of a wrenched knee, while George Langford, stroke, narrowly escaped being unable to row by severe cut on his right hand.
