VICTORY For AMERICANS


The disclosure of the un-Americvn
and dishonest articles of the present
administration to stifle Cuban senti-
ment, just made by a reputable Wash
ingtOn correspondent, shows the true
status of Mr.. Mckinley and his cab
met on this important question. 1t
appears that instructions have gone
out from the state department to the
American consuls in Cuba, in sub
stance about as follows:
Don't say so many things favor

must give the Cubans the benefit Of

Such a direct defiance of the peo-
Piles will, such a purpose on the part
of the servants of the people to con-
ceal the truth from their masters, has
seldom been brought to the attention
of the world.
1t was small wonder, in view of such
disclosures, that the senate on Thurs
day, so boldly detied the administra.

BRuNswcNs MAyoRALTY.

The superior court yesterday deliv-
cred Its long expected decision in The
mayoralty contest case of Crovatt vs..
Mason. The decision Is, so far as the
technical legal points are concerned,
a victory for Judge Crovatt, although
it denies to that gentleman any right
or title to the otlice for which he has
made such prolonged and determined
fight.
The contention that, Mr., Mason
beng ineligible, Judge Crovatt should
succeed to the mayoralty, could not
have been seriously considered by the
supreme court, and THE TIMES does
not believe that it was so considered
even by the contestant himself. The
law is clearly against the giving of
popularity elective office to a candidate
who receives a minority of the votes
cast in the election therefor; and
whatever the result of the claim that
Mr.. Mason was ineligible, no court
could give Judge Crovatt title to
those emoumeuls whi1h he had so
signally failed TO achieve by the votes
of the people.
The decision simply means, unless
new complications are brought in to
continue the contest, that Mr.. Mason
is legally disqualified for the office to
which he was chosen by such large
majority last December, the disquali-
fication lying in the fact that he was
an alderman at the time of his cleo
ton to the mayoraIty; and, under the
involved principle that no city official
can be elected to another municipal
office during the term for which he
was originally chosen, Mr. Mason can
not be mayor until January l, 1898,
when his two years term as alderman
terminates. Another election must
be held and another mayor chosen for
the term ending January l, 1899.
What real satisfaction Judge Gro
watt realizes from the result of his
contest is not easy to perceive; but it
is quickly discernible that Brunswick
sustains a direct misfortune In the re-
moval from office of a man who has
proven one of the hest public servants
who ever gave this city's affairs his
time and attention. Thoroughly con-
scientious, resourceful and Influen-
tiai. he was the one among all for the
position to which the people called
him: and those whose duty it is to
choose his successor Will have to look
long and earnestly to find better.

STILL A MYSTERY.
What Caused the Sudden Death of
Mrs. YeaGer.

The body of Mrs. Otto Yeager, whose
mysterious death while asleep with her
husband early Saturday morning has
puzzled the corOner's department, was
buried at. the German Lutheran, Gene
terry on Dale street yesterday. The
funeral took place from the late resi-
dence of the dead woman, 644 Jackson
street, being attended by few other
than relatives.
Coroner Nelson has as yet been I'M
able to throw any additional light upon
the WOmanS death, though he stated
yesterday that he was positive it was
neither a case of suicide nor one to
which criminality of any kind was
attached. The coron er made a thorough
search of the Yeager house Sunday but
found no poison or drugs of any kind
The analysis of the contents of the
woman's stomach has not yet been
made, but it is not thought this will
throw any light upon the matter as
the coroner does not expect to find a
cause of death in this organ In the
opinion of Coroner Nelson, it is possible
that Mrs. Yeager died from a cerebral
hemorrhage The results of this cause
of death are often not discovered with
out the aid of microscopic examination,
which was not employed at the autopsy
Saturday, and it is thought that the
breaking of a small blood vessel and
the gathering of an almost infinitesimaI
clOt Of blood on the brain may have
been overlooked at the post mortem.
This view, however, will not interfere
with the examination of the stomach,
which will be made as soon as possible,
probably by DR.. Rothrock
