System of Civil Government Estab-

The Spanish Oncials Are Giving Place to
Cubans-Lieut. Blount Has Been APP
pointed to Codify the Cuban
Laws-Robberies.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Sept. 2S.-The
system of civil government established
by Gen. Wood is practically complete
and in good working order. Maj. Nc
Cleary, former attorney general for
Texas and a Spanish scholar, has been
appointed mayor, and the Spanish of.
ficials are giving place to Cubans.
Gen. Wood says he does not know the
capabilities of the men taking Office
They are chosen by committee of SO
prominent Cubans, whom he believes
to be honest and conscientious
This committee recommends men
whom its members think would be eff
ficient in the various offices to be fill
ed. The choice of men by the COM
mittee must be unanimous and must
be made over the signatures of the
entire so members Gen. Wood finds
that the plan works admirably. Lieut..
Blount has been appointed to codify
the Cuban laws
Senior Rigney, one of the largest sug-
ar planters in Cuba, who has arrived
here from Manzanillo, reports the con-
ditions there worse than ever
The insurgents. he asserts, re-
fuse to grant permission for the carry
ing on of work on the plantations,
and the Spanish officials decline to
furnish protection to those desi r
ing work. Senior Rigney declares
T that since the cessation of hos
tilities the insurgents have confscated
his provisions and destroyed numb Der
of valua BILE pictures, made his carpets
into saddle cloths, tore and trampled
curtains and broke glasses worth $500
each. They are encamped in mum bers
at the sea town of Campechuela, where
they compel small vessels which fall
into their hands to hoist the Cuban
flag.
Gen. Wood has leased the residence
formerly occupied by the late British
Consul Frederick w. Ramsden and his
family, one mile from the city.
What archives the Spaniards left
have been removed to Gen. Woods of.
fees in the palace. The transport
Minnewaska will leave shortly with
ordnance for Porto Rico
The Cubans earnestly request Gen.
Wood to send to Manzanillo food and
clothing. They declare there is much
suffering there, but private advices re-
ceived by Gen. Wood deny absolute
the stories of restitution and declare
that work is obtainable, but that the
Gdbans will not work and he has,
therefore, refused to send the supplies
asked for.
William Stakeman, before the war
American consul at Man zanillo, ar
rived here Tuesday and paid visit to
Gen. Wood. He recounted many law
less acts on the part of the insurgents,
who, he declares, demand tribute from
every one, terrorize peaceful people
and threaten the confscation of the
property of merchants and planters
Many persons say that the recogni-
tion of the Cubans has not been grant
ed because the bandits make work and
progress impossible. There is a gen.
eral- feeling of alarm in Man zanillo
over the departure of the Spanish
troops and the American soldiers are
anxiously awaited.

Thers was hearing before Justices
Stiness, 1illinghast and Rogers In the
Appellate Court today on the probate ap-
zeal Of Eva X. d. McGowap, wifs of
John Il. McGowan, creditor OF the es-
tate Of Horacs 5. Bloodgood, against the
action of the Probate Court Of the Dis
trict Of Narragansett, whereby request
OF Francis Peabody, Jr., administrator
on the estate OF MIR. Bloodgood, stating
that ne desired to contest all the claims
against said estate, and asking permits
sion To have all the claims against said
estate proved before commissioners was
grented.
The reasons OF appeal were that Pea
boay did not make choice of or request
TO the Probate Conrt to consent TO the
proof Of claims against the Bloodgood
estate for commissioners, or for this ap-
pointment OF commissioners, or elect to
have commissioners appointed before
whom claims against tnv estate should
be presented ana proved, and file the
same in the clerks Office Of the Probate
Court until the cath day of June, 1897,
which vas m ore than 20 days after the
expiration uf the time allowed by law.
That as matter OF law tie Probate
Court had no jurisdiction or authority TO
grant tho request or TO consent Co the
election of said Pea body administrator to
have all the claims against the Blood
good estate presented and proved before
commission rs, or TO appoint commits

SAMPSON GAINED
HIS OBJECT

on Havana, April 2s.-10 a m.-Via
Key West Fla, April 29.-The lombard
ment Of the Matanzas batteries is now
matter Of history. Thb flagship has re-
turned to her station of III MORO. As al
ready briefly stated In these dispatches
the bombardment accomplished Its full
on the American side.
1t Is believed the SpaniArds must have
sustained some loss OF life In addition to
having their nearly completed earthwcrks
and fortifcations torn up by the explo-
sion OF shells. The capture OF the city was
not Mt all contemplated, the object be-
ing to stop the erection OF the batteries.
At tho end OF the firing IL was seen that
Admiral Sampson had effectually stopped
the work on Punta Gorda. He had drawn
the fire OF the enemy and had discovered
exactly the quality and location OF their
batteries besides AffordinR pis three ships
good target practice. Incidentally he had
put the fear or American guns into Span
ish hearts.
1t would have been perfectly feasible for
those three ships unaided to have steamed
past the fortifioations right into Matan-
zas and taken II or shelled 1t at pleasure.
After satisfying himself that the object
had been accomplished Admiral Sampson
headed back TO Havana.
The Puritan ana Cincinnati were left
to look out for Matanzas and they will see
to it that Matar zas Is not the scene OF
much work on fortihcations In the near
future Tho readiness TO assume this task
can be judged from the fact that shortly
after the signal 'cease firing" had been
given Capt. Chester asked permission
Co reopen. This was refused. Admiral
sampson evidently thinking Matanzas
had had enough for ono afternoon. Dur

on whose comp laint member OF tho bar
was deprived of his rights 70 practice the
legal profession In this state, wins in the
suit against him by Moore & Sinott.
1hs action of JuGge Bosworth non-
suiting Moore & Sine oft was approved by
the Appellate Court in decision han dsd
down today. 1he suit was replevin one
to recover Ger rtain liquors of the alleged
value OF s6e2. 20 from Watson.
Albert al. Williams, travelling sales
man employed by Moore & Sinott, got an
order from Watson for several barrels OF
whisky. The firm refused to give Watson
crediL and Williams hai the goods
charged TO bin anu afterward paia the
bill. The plaintiffs thereupon brought
suit, as trustee for Williams, claiming
tte right to maintain their action on the
ground that tho defendant obtained tue
goods In question by reason Of Fraudulent
repre- ssntstions mane to Williams az TO

rights iu the premises, ana Is entitled to
