GRANTED MORE TIME.
Spaniards VIII Not Be Forced to
Leave Cuba TIL End of Year.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 24-The President
had an exceedingly busy forenoon to-day.
Attorney General Griggs and Secretaries
Long, Hay and Alger called about 10 o'clock
and the President discussed with them sew
eral matters which he found awaiting his
attention on his arrival from the West.
telegram from General Wade, at Ha-
vana, was read recommending that the
limit of time allowed the Spaniards to va
cate Cuba be extended from Dec 1 to Jan.
l. He said that it would be physically i'm
possible for the $4,000 Spanish troops now
on the island to leave before the first of
the year. and he regarded the extension of
time as reasonable and just. After the mat
ter had been discussed at some length an
agreement was reached and General Wade
was telegraphed that his recommendation
was approved. In the meantime, however,
the United States troops now in Cuba and
others to be dispatched will take possession
of the territory as fast as the Spaniards
vacate it, probably leaving Havana until
the last. In regard to the reports that it
was the purpose of the Spaniards to dis
mount and remove to Spain the heavy
ordnance of the forts and arsenals about
Havana, it was stated in positive terms
that nothing Of the kind would be per-

instructions given the evacuation commits
sioners at Havana covered all these ques-
tions and explicitly provided that only the
arms in the hands of the troops would be
permitted to be taken away.

very high fever and the excessive noise of
the headquarters of the commission rem

moved. Dr. Lame refuses to allow anybody
to the captain.
Captain Hart to-day delivered a note to
the Spanish commission reiteratng the
protest of the United States commissioners
in regard to the sales of so-called immov-
able property, the United States claiming
the right to such property. A United States
inspector and a detective of the police de-
partment have been detailed to duty at the
Trocha Hotel. where they were installed
this morning.
Captain Griscom, who recently returned
here from Pinar del Rio has surveyed and
recommended for selection the site of
camp capable of accommodating two thou
sand men. 1t is easy of approach by the
high road and by rail and has good water
supply. The suggestion probably will be
acted upon. Colonel Hecker and his staff
will leave here Tomorrow for Pinar del
Rio.
Captain Griscom says he did not witness
Rio that he has seen here. The captain
conferred with the Spanish general Her
nandeZ de Velasco and with the Cuban
general Lorento. The former said his troODS
were badly off. but he has since been re-
ceiving shipments of beef. According to
General De Velasco's statement the sick
ness in the Spanish camps in the province
of Pinar del Rio has been reduced from 75
to 20 per cent. On the other hand, the

by the putting of pounded glass In his oat-
meal, is still at fever heat. His wife is
under arrest charged with the crime, and
it was announced to-day that the principal
evidence on which she is held is an alleged
confession by Marie Robertson, a servant
employed by Mrs. Sanderson, that she (Adrs.
Sanderson) put pounded glass in her hus-
bands coffee for two weeks before his
death. To her knowledge, Miss Robertson
is alleged to have said, that the glass ground
up to make Sanderson's death potion was
reduced to dust in an old-fashioned coffee
and spice grinder. which, for years. had
been fastened to the wall in the same spot.
To-day officers went to the house to secure
the grinder, but ii had been removed. Ac-
and other pipes near the Sanderson home
furnishes more evidence of the use of glass,
which was pulverized for some purpose or
other.
Professor Prescott of Ann Arbor, who
made the analysis, reported to Prosecuting
Attorney LocktOn Friday afternoon. The
report Is carefully guarded, but in substance
Is said to be that ground glass in small
quantities had been found in the stomach
and intestines. Marie Robertsons sworn
statement was withheld by the officers, and
will not be made public until after the ex-
animation Thursday.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Oct. 24.-To-day
was the last day for filing certificates Of

each of the seven counties in this congress
sional district the petitions have been filed
for the printing of the name of A. j. Far
row for Congress under the emblem of the

titioners make the point that 1t is not in
accord with the spirit Of the law to keep
one place blank. Mr.. Hamill, the Demo-
cratic candidate, also claims to have re-
ceived the Populist nomination, but the old
time leaders of the party have repudiated
the convention which nominated Hamil and
ask by petition with more than two hum
dred sgners in each of the seven counties
for the placing of the name of A. j. Far
row under the pillow and hammer as their
candidate for Congress. In five of the coun-
ties the Republicans have a majority of the
election board and in two counties-Clay
and Putnamr-the Democrats have a ma

board decided to put Farrows name under
a special emblem and under the name of the

HERO HOBS0N RETURNS
ARRIVES AT BOSTON ON HIS WAY TO
THE NATIONAL CAPITAL.
He Hopes TO Raise the Colon, and Be-
Iieves the Vixcaya and Reina Mer-
cedes Can Be Saved.

BOSTON. Oct. 24.-The Boston Fruit Com
pany's steamer Beverly arrived at her dock
Eere at o'clock this morning, twenty-four
hours late, having on board Naval Con-
structor Richmond =. Hobson. While Mr..
Hobson was waiting for a carriage to take
him from the steamer to the railway sta
tion where he was to board a train for
Washington. he was questioned by re-
porter as to the prospect of raising the
sunken Spanish war vessels off Santiago.
He said he was now engaged in the pre-
liminary work on the Cristobal Colon and
that it would take at least three weeks
more before everything would be ready.
The government had appropriated 100000
for the raising of the vessel, but 1t will be
money well spent, he saidS if the venture
proves a success, as the ship is worth $4-
100000.
The purpose of his visit to this country
Mr.. Hobson said, was to see the secretary
of the navy regarding further work on the
war ships. He thought the Vizcaya could
be saved, but would not affirm it positively.
She had settled in the sand, which has
formed a thick bed around her, so that
she is resting In an easy position, but dry
dock would have to be built around her be-
fore she could be raised. An appropriation
of 81, 100000 would cover the work of raising
the Vizcaya and would enable the govern
ment to bring her north and put her into
good condition. She cost $3,000000. The AL
mirante Oquendo, Mr.. Hobson says, is n
hopeless wreck. The Reina Mercedes.
which was sunk in Santiago harbor is q
good vessel and can be raised with but little
cost.

Sampson did not deliver the address which
had been advertised. A large crowd gath

to hear Admiral Sampson. The services
were prolonged nearly two hours, but the
congregation was finally dismissed when the

of the admiral appearing.
In explanation Mr. Fulton said Admiral
Sampson had not only promised to attend,
but was anxious to do so. A majority of

Incompetent Engineer Came Near

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Oct. M.-General
Wood, the acting military commander here,
and Major Brooks had a narrow escape last
evening from a serious disaster. They had
started down the bay on the way to MORO
Castle on board a steam launch which
seemingly had hundred pounds of steam
registered. But she lost fifty pounds in the
first two minutes, and a green engineer
who was in charge of her, discovering that
there was little or no water in the boiler,
was about to fill it while it was almost red
hot. Major Brooks saw the danger stopped
the launch, had the fire drawn and the
launch was towed back to her starting
place The engineer was discharged.
Majors Starr and Brooks returned yester-
day from a trip to Baracoa, Sagua sand
other places. They report that there Is no
restitution among the Cubans at the places
visited and they add that the distribution
of free rations is, having a demoralizing
effect upon the people, who do not want to
go to work. though the sugar estates, in
common with other industries, are badly in
need of labOrers.
