THOSE cR1MINALcAsEs.

Yesterday, in the circuit court of Ohio
county, the long-standlng criminal cases.
which were enumerated in yesterdays
Intelligencer, were set for final DISPOSE
ton. Those in the year 1897 will be
taken up on December %, and those for
1891, 1892, 1903, 1894, 1895 and 1896 will be
disposed of on December 81. These cases
are mostly appeals from the decisions of
justices Of the peace on misdemeanos
charges. This practice OF appealing to
the circuit court has been In vogue for
several years, under a state statute, and
the appeal has generally ended the mat
ter. In fact, the taklnC of the appeal
has, In many cases, been a method Of es-
Gaping punishment. The court will
make some disposition next month on the
days named either by filming or by dis
missal for lack of evidence.

EMPEROR WILLIAM I.
Monument to His Memory Unveiled
at Cologne.

COLOGNE, June 1S.-The Emperor
and Empress of Germany arrived here
to-day from Bielefeld, and met with an
enthusiastic reception from dense
crowds. The ceremony of unwilling the
statue of Emperor William I. was at
tended by many dignitaries.
The Burgomaster of Cologne made an
address, thanking their majesties for
their presence at the ceremony, and at
sign from his majesty the curtain was
withdrawn from the monument. This
was the signal for an artillery salute,
and for an outburst of cheering on the
part of the spectators.
In his speech at Sparanburg Castle,
after drinking to the prosperity OF Belle
field and Westphalia, the Emperor de-
clared that he had taken fresh courage
for another kind of contest which had
just arisen in the land, a contest for the
protection of national work and for the
rejection of all subversive endeavors.
He said: THE severest punishment is
due to him who binders his neighbors
from performing voluntary work.

TRADE WITH CUBA.
Report Prepared by Chief Hitchcock
of the Agricultural Department.

WASHINGTON, June 1S.-A signifi-
cant report on our trade with Cuba
from 1887 to 1897, prepared by Chief
Hitchcock of the foreign markets section
of the Agricultural Department, has
been promulgated by Secretary of Agrl-
culture Wilson.
The statistics show very clearly the ell
feet of the present hostilities in CUBA
upon the commercial intercourse OF the
United States with that island. During
the last fiscal year, 1885, the total value
of our Cuban trade amounted to only
SAT, 54S, $40, as compared with Sl02,S4
20J in 1893, the year preceding the
breaking out of the war. This was d
falling off of more than 30 per cent. IN
three years.
Returns already available for the cur
rent fiscal year indicate a still further
decline, the records for the nine months,
ending March 81, 1897, placing the total
value of the trade for that period as
low as S14, 926, 81. AT this rate the flg-
ures for the seal year 1896 will hardly
reach $20,000,000, or less than one-ffth
the value recorded in 1893.
The report also demonstrated that IN
past years our imports from Cuba have
generally been much in excess of our ex-
ports to that island, the balance of trade
being decidedly against the United
States

PRESSMEN'S UNION.

DETROIT, June 1S-Election of Off

O'Dea, New York, and George Klein

Considerable opposition developed TO
the plan of the Typographical Union
for joint action toward securing a
shorter day. President Johnson and
some New York delegates took the
ground that the present dull times
We're inopportune for such an effort,
and some lack of confidence in the
Typographical Unions plans was also
expressed.
President Johnson and Delegate Kali
ly of New York were appointed a com
mittee to formulate a sub plan Later
the committee reported a resolution for
the appointment of a committee of five

Union for the nine-hour day. 1t was
adopted unanimously, after some spirit

Arrive at Southampton.

SOUTHAMPTON, June 1S.-On the
arrival of the British steamship Scot
to-day with the body of the late Barney
Barnato, the Coroner's officers went
aboard to ascertain as to the necessity
of holding an inquest. The inquest was
held, and the jury returned a verdict
of death from drowning while tempor-
alily insane. The arrival of the steam
ship confirms the details already cabled
by the Associated Press of the circ11m-
stances under which Barney Barnato
met his death. He was feeling very
poorly when the vessel left Cape Town,
and often talked quite irrationally.
The passengers subscribed f1OO as q
reward for Mr.. Clifford, the officer who
tried TO rescue him.

Scot, says that when Mr.. Barnato first
came into the saloon for his meals he
was quiet and social, but his moods
varied to such an extent that ulti-
mately his nephew, Mr.. Joel, who was
virtually his keeper, found it impossible
to quiet him at the table and had to
have all his meals taken to his cabin.

But is Not Entitled to Admission as a
State.
The Secretary Opposed as Rule to
Acquiring OutIaying Territory,
But Regards the Condition OF the
Hawaiian Islands as Exceptional,
on Account of the Claim of Japan
to the Islands.

WASHINGTON, June 1S.-In view of
the fact that false and misleading
statements have been sent out from
Washington as to Secretary Sherman1s
position on the question of the anneXa-
ton of Hawaii, the Secretary to-day
said to the Associated Press that as a
rule he was opposed to the United
States acquiring outlaying territory,
but he regarded the condition OF the
Hawaiian Islands as exceptional on
account of the claim of Japan to these
islands. He therefore approved the
treaty making Hawaii a possession OF
the United States, but not entitled to
admission as a State.
Senator Davis, Chairman of the Sem
ate Committee on Foreign Relations,
said to-day that he would not make an
effort to press the Hawaiian treaty to
final consideration in the Senate dur
ing the present session.
while the opposition to the ratifica-
ton of the treaty is not formidable as
to numbers he said, lit has already
been made evident that it will be quite
determined, and this fact, coupled with
the impossibility of holding a quorum
for any length of time after the passage
OIL the LdflII DIN, Has dlIeduy 1OiCCO lllc
conclusion that an effort to secure i'm
mediate action would be futile, hence
it will not be made. We shall, however,
be able to get the treaty reported to the
Senate. We shall also have it formally
taken up so as to have it we'll to the
front at the beginning of the next SEES
son.
Senator Davis expressed the opinion
that there would be no difficulty in
getting ratification resolution
through the committee at the present
session. He said, in reply to a question,
that he did not believe the committee
would be disposed to give ex-Queen
Liliuokalani a verbal hearing.
I'VE would, of course he said, ''read
any statement she might be disposed to
file with us, but the committees aver
sion to verbal statements is such that
I am convinced she would not be
heard if she should make application"
