A Scotch Joke.

At Scotch weddings some years ago it
used to be the custom to batter the hat of
the bridegroom as he was leaving the
house In which the ceremony took place.
On one of those occasions newly married
couple, relatives Of the bridegroom, deter
mined to carry out the obscrvanccs of this
custom to the letter.
The bridegroom heard them discussing
their plans and dispatched a messenger to
the carriage, which stood waiting, with
his hat some time previous to his depar-
ture. Then, donning the hat of the male
relative who had plotted against him, he
prepared TO go out to the carriage
No sooner had he got to the door than
his hat was furiously assaulted and almost
destroyed. He walked out Of the house
amid the laughter of the bystanders and
entered the vehicle Then, taking the bat
tered hat from his head, he threw IL into
the hands of its proper owner, exclaiming,
Hey, Mr.. Dougnll, there's your hat" and
donned his own, amid the cheers of all

Some Decisive Forward Step.
WASHINGTON, May 21.-The cabinet
meeting today was not of long duration,
but it was interesting, because the
principal subject of discussion was that
of our relations towards Cuba. The
action Of the senate yesterday, in pass
ing the Morgan joint resolution, declar-
ing state of war in Cuba, was regard
ed as movement that threatened, If
carried out to the end, to interfere
seriously with the efforts of the execu-
tive branch of the government to ac-
complish something substantial for the
Cubans. The details of the plan which
President Mckinley has in mind have
not yet been disclosed: in fact it may
be said that they are subject to arrange
ments upon the basis Of the latest Off
cial information that Is received from
Cuba, probably from Mr.. Calhoun. But
it was clearly manifested in the cabi-
net meeting today, that the president
has made UP his mind to another for
ward step, and that while up to this
time he has, as he promised in the be-
ginning of his administration, confined
his efforts largely to securing absolute
protection for American citizens in
Cuba, he has not come to deterrnina-
tion to use his powers to stop the blood

ters briefly discussed in the meeting,
among them being the full report Of

much debate in congress, but no action
was taken ON this subject.

Crisis Is Now Transferred to Crete.

quence Of the departure Of the Greeks.
Some hi-bazauks fired upon Admiral
Harris, the British commander, yester-
day, making his fourth escape since
he has been in these waters. Later in
the day five shots were fired at the
French admiral, while walking in Suda,
with his chief Of staff. Shots were also
fired at British signaler outside Of
Canea, and three insurgents attacked
and disarnled British lieutenant near
Suda... Owing to this case, the British
admiral sent an ultimatum to the in
surgents, demanding the return of the
lieutenant's arms within forty-eight
hours. The British cruiser Cambria
has been recalled to Suda bay to be
prepared for eventualities. Brigandage
Is also appearing among the insurgents.
The Cretan insurgents have received
instructions from Athens to accept am
autonomous form Of government on
condition that the Turkish troops shall
be previously withdrawn from the ISL
and. The insurgents appear to approve
of this plan for the settlement of their
grievances. The Mussulmans of Crete,
however, have telegraphed to the sui
tan protesting at "being placed in the
power Of the majority, which betrayed
such hostility to the Mussulmans by
the carnage ait Sitia, and the destruc-
ton of all the Mahommedan villages, :"
adding: Autonomy under such cir
cumstances cannot fail to perpetuate
race wars, and will only briefly post

quences."

AFTER concluding reading, Mr.. Harris
turned to the chairman and begged him
to call upon Mr.. Labouchere to Justify
his statements, which, Mr.. Harris
added, ARE absolutely and maliciously

which the members of the committee
looked curiously at Mr.. Labouchere.

allow the committee to discuss the mat

the chairman announced that the com
mittee condemned Mr.. Labouchere for
commenting on the raid while the in
quiry was proceeding, took notice Of
Mr. Harris denial and added that it
rested with Mr.. Labourchere to take
such steps as he thought fit to meet the
denial
A moment later Mr.. Harris refused to
be further examined ty Mr. Labouchere,
unless the latter withdrew his charges.
On motion of Sir William Vernon Har-
court, the room was again cleared.
On resuming business the chairman
said he thought Mr.. Harris position in
the dispute must be highly unsatisfac-
tory to him, and the matter was then
dropped.

Charges Against Chartered CO.
MIR. Labouchere Ready to Prove Them.

LONDON, May 21-There was a dra-
matio scene today in the committee
room off Westminster hall. The par
iamentary committee inquiring into
the. Transvaal raid held another ses-
sion, and in the course Of the examina-
tion Of Rutherford Harris, the former
secretary of the British Chartered
South African company at Cape Town,
by Henry Labouchere, the witness was
asked whether he had ever heard of a
syndicate, organized for the purpose Of
dealing in the securities of the Char
tered company. Mr.. Harris replied:
II am glad you put that question. I
have given you a long time to prove
the charges you made against me-
Then, turning to the chairman, Mr..
Harris read an extract from La
boucheres speech in the house of COM
mons ON May 8, 1886, and an extract
from Truth Of May 8, 1896, as follows:
''The main object Of the raid was to
annex the rich mining districts of the
TransvaaI to Rhodesaa. 1t is obvious
that the first news of the raid would
cause a fall in shares. I am prepared
to prove that a syndicate was formed
just prior to the raid, including lead
ing director (Mr. Harris was a director
of the company, as we'll as its secretary

officials of the British Chartered South
Africa company, for the purpose of
making large bear sales. The seed
thus having been sown, for securing a
profit by the immediate fall and an
ultimate profit by the buying, when the
raid was successful and rich slice Of
the Transvaal had been added to the
charter lands, steps were taken to
carry out the conspiracy.

that there was divergence of opinion
