short parley with the sheriff, dragged
the negro from his cell, carried him to
tree a mile from town, where the
remainder of the party awaited them,

the negro was punished as he deserved,

discover the identity of the members
of the mob.

New York, Nov. S.-The 16 Cubans
who were recently released by the
Spanish government from the prison at
Ceuta, and who arrived in this coun-
try last week on the Kaiser Wilhelm

barge office and allowed to go, penni-
less and homeless, into the streets.
They applied for help at the Cuban
1unta, but were turned away with the
reply that no funds were available for
them. The situation of the men is
peculiar. They were released from the
prison, and as they had no money for
transportation and could not secure
Eelp from the Spanish government
they were forwarded to this country
by the United States consul there at
the expense of this government No
arrangements were made for their re-
ception on this side, nor for their trans
portation from this port to the Island
OF Cuba. When they arrived Commits
sioncr Fitchfe sent a message to the
1unta informing them of the Cubans
arrival here, and asking the junta to
care for them. The junta declined
After conference on the subject It
was decided that the junta would take
care of the men for the night. An ef-
fort will be made by Mr.. Palma to get
the state department to provide for the
men until they can be sent to Cuba.

OF the valuable records OF the court
filed away in vaults beneath that por

This il the result OF an explosion OF
gas, which occurred in the sub base
ment of the Capitol Just beneath the
supreme court room ut $50 yesterday
afternoon. The explosion destroyed
the flooring and entrance to the room

of the explosion was SO heavy that the
coping stones on the outer walls Just

occurred were bulged out nearly two
inches, windows in all that part OF the
building were blown out and locked
doors were forced from their hinges

a 500 light gas meter, which was fed

of the explosion, and communicated
with the record room OF the supreme

serious damage had been done in thet
marshal's office and some minor rooms
in the immediate vicinity.
