New York, Oct. General Julio
Sanguilly, who was arrested in Cuba,
tried, convicted, pardoned and released
at the request of the United States
government, said today, discussing the
Spanish crisis: II do not believe the
formation by Sagasta of a liberal cabi'

ternaI Advances.

arranging n demonstration in memory
of the men executed for the Haymar-
ket massacre, have dropped bomb, SO
TO speak, into the Chicago Federation
of Labor by asking for the official en-
dorsement and cooperation of union
labor. The invitation stirred up half
an hours violent debate At length
the high council of union labor went
upon record by repudiating any inn
piled fraternity between unionism and
anarchy, and fatty refused to take
any part in the coming exercises. The
invitation to take part in the memoir

famine is impending in this part of the
southwest. In the immediate vicinity
