Report That Authorities Will Proceed

New YORK, Feb. 9.-There was a
'rumor in the federal building during
the afternoon that at the request of the
Spanish consul the United States au.
liberties will attempt to suppress the
Cuban junta in this city, and that
known agents Of the Cuban junta in
this country are likely to be prosecuted
on the ground of conspiracy.
The federal officials refuse to affirm
or deny the rumor, but the activity in
the United States district attorney

indicates that general movement

ELEcToRAL VOTE SCARE.


a South Carolina Congressman Would
Block Proceedings.
& CHICAGO, Feb. ga Especial from.
Washington says: President-e Nc
Kinley' 8 right to his seat may not be
officially declared this week.
Complications have arisen which
may furnish dramatic interruption to
the counting of the electoral votes next
Wednesday: s5
Representative George Washington
Murray, the only colored member of
the house, who represents the Charles
ton district, will be the chief actor in
the dramatic episode.
He has just returned from South
Carolina, where he'was in consultation
with the leading Republicans of the
Palmetto state. He is armed with a
petition, signed by thousands of Re-
publicans Of that state, protesting
against the counting of the electoral
vote, and asking for an investigation of
the election laws and the state consti-
tuition.
Protest Cannot Be Ignored.
The claim is made that the election
laws duu Guo SGdG0 CONSTITUTION upon
which they are based are not in accord
to the federal constitution. While the
dispute over the vote of South Carolina
cannot in any way affect the final re-
suit, the best authorities agree that the
petition cannot be ignored, and the in
vestigation of the precedents shows
that when such protest is entered the
count must Immediately stop until the
| question is settled.
| Whatever the immediate result of
this attempt to discredit South, Caro-
lina's vote may be, there is no doubt
that the programme which is to be thus
dramatically inaugurated is part of a
far reaching scheme on the part of
Southern Republicans to overthrow the
registration and election laws in vari-
GUS Southern states, where the negro
predominates, but his vote is not a
factor-the purpose being to secure
either the Republican domination in
these Southern states Or reduce the
Democratic representation in congress-

THERE IS PRECEDENT ENOUGH.

In criticizing the action of the Coy
ernor for hardening the Edenton officers,
whom he had convicted, Judge lumber
lake said. that never before in the his
tory Of the State had Governor OF the
State pardoned man who had been con
vieted. pending an appeal. We have al
ready shown that Governor Brogden
pardoned man under like circumstances.
We have learned of another precedent
that will give justification to the acuoh
Of Governor Carr.
Within few months after his lnau-
guration as Governor, in 1877, he par
doned Thomas Sumner, who had been
convicted of manslaughter in the Superior
court OF Buncombe. Mr.. Sumner was
technically guilty of murder, because
under the rules of evidence, ne could not
bring out all the facts. He was morally
entirely innocent. He came with South
Carolina constable TO Henderson county,
North Carolina, to arrest man who hau
been guilty of burglary in Spartanburg.
He was an inexperienced young man,
and believed the constable when he told
him he had papers which empowered
them to arrest the burglar When the
man. charged with burglary, and his
family made violent resistance to his ar
rest, and assaulted Sumner, he shot and
inflicted a wound upon the criminal from
which he died some months after. Ii
was afterwards ascertained that the
constable had no process in his hands
except q warrant from the mayor OF
Spartanburg, which was not protection
to them in North Carolina. Young Sum
ner was a man of high character and OF
respectable parentage, who had accom-
panied the constable because he knew
where the burglar lived in the noun
tains, and could, by plotting the officer,
enable him to surprise the man he was IN
search of. Sumner was convicted or
manslaughter, ON the second trial, SEN
fenced to Imprisonment, and pending the
appeal, Governor Vance pardoned him.
SO strongly did his case appeal to the
sympathies of the people that on his
first trial, the jury refused to convict
him Of any offence, though they were IN
the charge of an officer for ten days be-
fore the Judge would order a mistrlal.
The refusal of the commissioners to pay
the board bill of the jurors in that case
led to the enactment of the law which
provides for the payment by the county
Of the board of jurors while they are in
the hands OF the officers.

GOV. PINGREEs PROGRAMME.

Mayor Pingree, of Detroit, who has
been elected Governor of Michigan, lead
ing his ticket by 10000 votes, has an
nounced his programme Of reforms which
he proposes to have the Legislature pass.
His measures are a maximum 2 cents
per mile railroad fare, which has recently
been enacted in some other States, the
reduction Of freight rates, and the pre-
yention of discrimination among ship
pers. the enforcement of the laws already
ON the statute books against trusts and
monopolies, submission to the popular
vote Of city franchises for street, water
and gas monopolies, and the nomination
of all candidates by primary elections
instead of by caucus or conventions. The
Review Of Reviews prophecies that if he
carries out this programme, upon the
inevitable reaction from the nomination
and election of Mckinley by trusts and
corporations, Governor Pingree will be
the next Republican candidate for Presi-
dent Of the United States.
