ment as a result Of the deliberations OF
the ministers over the utterances of
General Weyler, the former captain
general of Cuba, has come to the de-
cision to try him by court-martial, no
matter where he lands, If he confirms
the accuracy of the press reports of
his utterances. The commanding Off
GERS at all the ports of the Spanish

BILE conjecture here. An official docu-

LOGAN WINS THE FIGHT.
Gains the Entire Management of the Horse
show in Chicago.


Chicago, Nov. 6-Hostillities between
the state board of agriculture and Man
ager John A. Logan, Jr., of the horse
show are ended. Peace has been de-
clared between the warning factions,
and harmony now prevails. The smold-
ering fire of discomfort and jealousy
attained serious proportions and for a
time promised to put an untimely end
20 the exhibition. When Manager Lo-.
gan and party of ring judges returned
from a drive over the south side boule-
wards behind a prize-winning four-in-
hand team they were refused admit
tance to the side door Of the Coliseum.
The coach and four were permitted to
enter, but Logan and his friends were
told they must go in through the front
door or not at ALL In vain the man
ager showed his badge and repeatedly
introduced himself. The officious door
keeper was obdurate, and, accompanied
by the judges, Mr.. Logan walked to the
Sixty-third street entrance. The party
then adjourned to the rooms of the Bit
and Spur club, where a consultation
was held with a number of exhibitors.
A set of resolutions was drawn up
in which the state board of agriculture
spologized 70 Mr.. Logan for its inter-
ference with him at various times; in
which the judges were apologtzed to; in
which it was resolved to reopen the
closed door between Mr.. Logans pri-
vate office and the Coliseum proper.
and in which the entire management
and control Of the exhibition was put
into the hands of MIR. Logan, hereto
fore manager in name only. These res
olutions were accepted and adopted
with few notifications by the members
of the agricultural board, and Mr.. Lo-
gan's wounded feelings were healed.
The judges took up their accustomed
places in the tanbark ring. and the
show, which had been delayed for an
hour was opened.
