NO REFORMS IN G H


In Cuba Blnnco DiAguAted-Claims TO
Have Resn Deceived by Weylrr.
NEW YORK, Nov. lS.-A dispatch to
the Herald from Havana says: There
Is no sign OF the full text Of the prom
ised reforms, and In consequence the
hopes of the most optimistic autono-
mists are dwindiing. The fault lies not
with Gen. Blaneo, There Is every rea-
son TO believe that his promises on ar
rival were made in good faith. He Is
evidently deeply incensed at the false
position In which he Is placed. He ca
bled a day or two ago to Madrid saying
Gen. Weyler had deceived him as to the
condition of the army and the govern
ment had misled him regarding their
sincerity In promising autonomy, and
broadly limited that he felt inclined to
ask to be relieved.
The Herald correspondent has Just re-
turned from a two days trip through
Havana to Artemisa. Every military
commander Of a town who was met said
he had not yet received any orders re.
garding tho extension Of the zones OF
cultivation. The condition of the re-
concentrates Is unaltered. Their suf-
ferings are appalling.
The Herald's correspondent with thd
Cuban army writes: UNLESS Gen.
Blanco speedily makes nor Roadway
than he has done yet autonomy Will be

CHICAGO, Nov. lS.-Joseph Keller,
butler, valet and confidential man in
the Wallace Ketcham household, and
who recently has become a notable fig
ure In the ketcham mystery, was put
in the sweat box for two hours late last
night by Police Captain Homer. About
midnight Keller was released on de.
mand OF Attorney Hansen, who agreed
10 produce the butler II the police should
require him.
Captain Homer does not believe Keller

case. His story of the trip 10 Mllwau-
hee and the subsequent marriage OF
Ketcham to Mrs. Wallace, the captain

In the sweat box Keller was ques-

When seen by n reporter after leaving
