Vigorous Speeches at a Mass-meeting
Held at New York-southern Gov

New York, Nov. IA mass-meeting of
colored men and women to protest against
the recent treatment OF their race in some
Of the southern states was held tonight in
Cooper Union. AS a precautionary meas
ure, the police were out in force, as even
in this city. in the "Heus Kitchen" dis
trict, there has been a considerable
amount of anti-negro sentiment. This
precauJion, however, was not at all neceS-
sary, as the gathering, although enthu-
SlaStlc at tunes, was a very Deaceable
one. The hal was crowded with colored
people, with sprinkling of whites. A
number OF prominent white citizens, how
ever sent letters commencing the object
OF the meeting,
During tedious wait for speakers, a
White man, with long, flowing mar, arose
in his seat in the center aisle and shout
ed: ''On, if we only had a William Lloyd
Garrison, a Wendell Phillips or an Abra-
ham Lincoln at this time!"
This evoked tremendous applause.
Thomas fortune appeared on the stage
few moments later and took the presiding
oflcer'S chair. Mr.. Fortune, in a lengthy
address, told of the race troubles in the
south.
f.benezer D. Bassett, formerly minister
to Haytl, also spoke.
Resolutions were adopted denouncing
the rioting and revolution which have
dis2raced the states Of North Carolina

The resolutions Iurther recite that the
states of Mississippi, South Carolina and

Washington. Nov. 1.-THE movement
of United States troops to Havana will
begin within ten days. The exact date
of their arrival viii be determined by
the representatives of Major General
Greene, who commands division of
the Seventh corps and is now in Hav-
ana on business connected with garri-
soning that province, and of General
Charles +. Humphrey and Colonel
Hecker Of the quartermaster's depart
ment. These officers have authority TO
complete arrangements for the recep-
ton of the troops. the Cuartermaster'
officers being engaged in the super
vision of the construction of wharveS
and depOts to be used by the army.
The occupation of CienfuegOS is also
receiving attention. General Snyder
will command the first brigade which
lands in that province. He viii be fol-
lowed soon afterwards by General Will
son and the First corps. Nothing has
been heard OF the detachmentS of the
Eighth cavalry which sailed for Neu-
vitas and Puerto Principe, but as there
is no telegraph communication with
that part of the island, no surprise is
manifested at the war department.
The conduct Of the volunteer regi-
ments in Santiago province may result
in a transfer of some of these troops to
corps where a. more rigid discipline can
be enforced and where regiments under
command Of general officers can be used
to Cuell any disturbances Of the i'm
mune regiments.

interior department. They own over
800 acres of land for each man, woman
and child, each receiving an annuity of
over 5000 in cash. As an illustration,
if an Indian and his wife have eight
children the annual cash income of
the family is over $4,000. Rather lead
ing his white brother in this respect,
he prefers the conveniences, iuxuries
and dissipation of village life to agri-
cultural avocation. He likes to sing
and dance and he has plenty of money
to support his family in illness.
Indian Agent Stephens Of the Crow
Creeks, reports that a serious nuisance
and detriment to progress, to correct
which agents would have to cooperate
is intertribal visiting, demoralizing to
the Indians, encouraging idleness and
nomadic habits, abandonment of the
crops, reckless distribution of property
as presents and neglect of stock. Ac-
ton to minimize this mischief is urged.
WRONGS OF THE UTES.
Captain Cornish of the Uintah and
Ouray agency in Utah, complains in
his report that there never has been
any settlement of the claim of the I'm
compahgre, White River and Southern
UteS on account Of the cesSion of about
100000 acres of land to the United
States under treaty of 1880, in con-
sideration of certain benefits The
treaty required that the land should
be subject to cash entry only, and that
the proceeds, after reimbursement to
the United States for sums appropri-
ated and set aside in the Ute act, and
paying for the lands which might be
ceded to the Utes by the United States
outside of their reservation at sips per
acre, should be deposited to their credit
in the treasury, the interest payable to
the Utes annually with the rest of their
annuity money. This claim has not
been settled and no statement made as
to the amount of money collected for
this land.
The agent says: ut does not ap-
pear that the United States has coded
them any lands outside of their reser-
walton; if the late Uncompahgre reser-
walton is considered to have been so
ceded, it has practically again been alb
sorbed by the United States. l believe
the government has segregated from
this Colorado land large timber re-
serve, for which it seems to me the
Indians are justly entitled to pay The
matter should be carefully investi-
gated"
The denial of the rights of these In
dams to hunt in their old reservations,
in accordance with the Colorado game
laws, is complained of as an injustice
and violation Of their treaty rights and

the Shoshone reservation last summer.
He Will be tried next week.
Charlie White Owl, an Arapahoe In
dian, was charged with cattle stealing
on the Shoshone reservation. He plead
ed guilty, and was given Jail SEN
tence of ten months. If White Owl had
stolen the cattle off the reservation he
would have been liable to punishment
by imprisonment in the penitentiary of
from one to ten years. Under the
United States law cattle stealing is
simply a misdemeanor.
The grand jury refused to return in
dictments against H. c. Finders, a
Cheyenne merchant who had been
bound over by the United States com
missioner for illegally fencing govern
ment land; also John Lucero, a MeXi-
can, who was bound over by United
States commissioner on the charge of
leaving campfire contiguous to tim
Der in Carbon county, which destroyed
an immense amount of lumber. This
is the first case to come UP under the
new law recently enacted by congress
relative to the care and preservation of
forests on the public domain.

spaniards Willing to Yield.

Madrid, Nov. 17.-Almost all the pa
pers deprecate the dilatory proceedings
at Paris, expressing their belief that
the United States will decline arbitra-
ton, and urging the government to
yield quickly, since it is impossible for
Spain to renew the struggle, or to ex-
pect European assistance, and, further
more, because it would be better to
cease wasting money and to concen-
trate attention upon Spain's domestic
affairs and the restoration of her
finances.
London, Nov 1S.-An the special dis
patches to the London papers this
morning from Paris express the belief
that the Spanish commissioners will
finally yield, although under protest, to
the American demands.

from him. He replied that he had not
seen the Associated Press interview I'M
til yesterday, but had seen copies of
remarks upon it, which were cause
of wonderment to him.
The article named seems to have
been taken from a chat I had with a.
reporter Of local paper, who asked
my opinion on the results of the recent
election, then drifted into a question
ing as to the outcome of the war tax,
etc., and, not expecting to be quoted,
we talked about the possibilities Of var
1ous sources of revenue. As my mean
ing was evidently misunderstood in
reference to the question under discus
sion, and I was misquoted, [ now state
that l consider the Dingley bill the
most scientific and best adjusted tariff
bill ever enacted, and that I would be
the last person to disturb it's opera
lions; that I believe it will bring a
larger revenue to the country than
was claimed for it, and will remain in
force for many years and be changed
only by the Republican party when
the requirements of the country de-
mand it.
AS to the war tax, I believe that
some features of it will remain as
means of revenue to provide for nat
ural increased expenses of the govern
iiAC4NI eNAd contingencies. L QlQ state,
and now repeat, that owing to the
benefits of the protective tariff, our
manufacturing industries have reached
the point where, for the first time in
the history of the country, our exports
of manufactured goods have exceeded
our imports. That is what we have al
ways claimed would be the outcome of
the protective policy, at the same time
maintaining our standard of wages.
This means reduction of revenue from
imports, and unless made good from in
creased volume of business, must be
supplied from other sources, and 1 sug-
gested tea and coffee, which can be
made, in my opinion, a source of reve-
nue. (when required) without any great
hardship to consumers. 1 do not care
to enter into any newspaper discussion,
and, perhaps, I did not make my mean
ing clear TO my friend, the reporter. 1
certainly was not debating a public in
terview, and would not say this much
only to correct what seems to have
been misunderstanding. I am a pro-
tectionist in principle, and have grown
stronger in the belief from object les
sons which are multiplying each year"

TURBULENCE AT HAVANA.
Danger of an Instruction Is Not Yet
Passed.

Danger of an Instruction Is Not Yet
Passed.
New York, Nov. IA dispatch to
the Herald from Havana says: With
the departure of the greater number Of
the orden publicO for Spain, one of the
principal elements Of disorder is re-
moved from the city. This body of
picked men, better trained and more
intelligent than the ordinary Spanish
soldiers and with the bitterest feeling
against the government, fell naturally
into the place Of the leaders OF the
movement which for the last week has
kept the city in q state Of constant
anxiety. From them have come the
directions to be followed in attempting
to force the government to accede IN
the soldiers wishes, and while the
other corps implicated have been equal
ly anxious as the Orden pubGco TO
bring matters to q crisis, the initiative
has been left entirely to the latter.
Their prompt removal from the island
was a step hardly contemplated by the
mutineers, and has checked for the mo-
ment any immediate action on the part
of the other regiments The govern
ment apparently believes shat the
trouble has been averted in the mean
time and that the danger of an uDriS-
ing at any moment has passed.
The remaining element of danger, the
guardia civil, is still in an unsatisfac-
tory condition. Prompt action of the
military authorities in checking the
outbreak has tanned the spirit of the
men to some extent, but causes of their
discomfort still remain, and the flame
may burst out at any moment. Isolated
and unarmeG in their quarters in ORA
cones street, they are pOwerlesS for the
moment but the day will only be post
~, hot Cr,rNp,.trIr1ify
may be taken advantage of. The spirit
existing among the men is very bitter,
If only the opportunity arises 1t Will
not be wasted. The principal object of
their hatred is General ArolaS. His
stern, effective measures in checking
the outbreak on Thursday night, to-
gether with his implacable methods of
dealing with individual revOlters, has
earned for MIN the fiercest dislike of
those affected. His life only will ap-
pease them, and one of the first acts
of the men, should they have the Op-
portunity, will be to murder Arolas.
This was the plot of Saturday night,
but it fell through.
Another element Of danger is the Gu
bans. Menacalis brigade is situated
only two hours march, or half an
! hours ride by rail, from Havana. On
reports of the disturbances reaching
him. he held his men in readiness to
march on Havana, with view to pro-
tect American and other foreign resi-
dents.
A special detail has been provided to
guard the Salon Trocha, the residence
of the American commissioners. In
two hours, Monacali asserts, he would
have as many as 5000 men in
the city, and in twenty-four, TO-
600. The consequences of such q
movement would have been of d grave
| character. The Spanish authorities
would never have agreed to the use Of
Cuban troops, and the result would
have been triangular fighting in the
streets, Spanish troops and mutineers
! against each other, and both against
the Cubans

Paris, Nov. 1.-THE clerical force of
the American peace commission was
busy nearly all night in translating the
Spanish memorandum presented at yes
terday's joint session. While the trans
lators and typewriters were rendering
the Spanish argument into printed
English, counsel for the American COM
mission studied it sheet by sheet, max
ing notes Of records to be examined and
OF law points bearing on the matter
in hand AS a result, when the Ameri-
cans gathered for the daily session to-
day, the Spanish presentment lay be-
fore them in English, ready for con-
sideration and accompanied by data
bearing upon it.
No unofficial person knows the con-
tents of the document presented by the
Spanish commissioners yesterday, but
it is safe to assume that, added to her
insistence on the reservation of her
Philippine sovereignty and her propo-
sitiOn to arbitrate the construction of
the third article of the protocol, Spain
has made two other important state
mems:
First-That on the high ground of
financial prObity, she cannot allow any
discussion here Of the validity Of her
action in pledging the resources of the
'hillppineS for the payment of the Phil
opine debt.
Second-That in connection with the
American proposal to reimburse Spain
for her pacific expenditures in the Phil
ippines, she cannot admit of any in
quiry as to how she has spent the pro-
ceeds Of the loans based on the Philip
pine pledges.
If Spain has assumed this attitude
and it is believed she has done Sc, she
practically compels the American COM
missioners to consider, at least, the en-
tire Philippine debt and its assumption
by the United States, as a condition
to SPANS anaiable surrender of her SOW
ereignty over those islands.
II is difficult 20 understand how the
Americans can reply TO this in any
Gother manner than by strictly outlining
their position and giving the Spaniards
a time limit in which TO accept the pre-
positions Of the United States. But the
American commissioners may patiently
continue their endeavors to arrive at
an annicable understanding on the sub
ject.
The Matin today, in reviewing the
history of the late war, says Prince
Bismarck on one occasion remarked
nations neck you should make her
cough out all you can" adding: 1T
is possible the United States now re-
members this brutal maxim and per-
haps the United States has forgotten
the rancor, hatred and evaporation it
involved"

CONSTRUCTION OF PROTOCOL.
President Wrote It and Knows What
It Means.

1t Means.
Washington, Nov. 1.-THE admins
tration feels encouraged over the out
look for a successful termination of the
labors of the peace commissioners in
Paris Whether this renewed conf
dence is based upon an abstract of the
Spanish reply, which was submitted at
Yesterdays meeting, or is founded upon
private advices indicating q weakening
of the Spanish position, is not known,
but it is probable that both of these
had an influence in Frightening the
prospects. The Spanish reply was no
surprise to the American commission
ers who, in fact, had prepared them
selves in advance, with instructions
deceived directly from the president and
lSecretary Hay for a complete answer.
sill it was probably regarded as bet
. ter policy, and more in accord with the
amenities of official exchange, that the
Americans should do the Spanish COM
nIissioners the courtesy of giving de-
liberate consideration to their careful
ly-written argument.
But with all due intent to give proper
weight to the Spanish representations,
it must be said that, up to this point
they have had very little effect in in
huencing the American commissioners;
not because of any obstinate disregard
Of facts on their part, but for the sim
pie reason that almost every one of the
points made by the Spanish commits
sioners have been anticipated in the
preparation of the American case-no
small tribute to the acumen and dill
gence of Judge Day and Secretary
John Moore.
The attempt of the Spanish COM is
sioners to induce the Americans I Ac-
cept their construction of the meaning
of the protocol, where it touches on the
Philippines, has been q fat failure. The
president himself was party to the
preparation Of the protocol. 1t was he
who, suspecting a purpose on the Span
ish side to becloud the issue and leave
open a door for future escape from the
consequences Of the war, had swept
aside as so much chaff the message Of
the Spanish duke, Almodovar de Rio,
and reducing the demands of the
United States to what is called a pre-
c.isis. has declared that the Spanish
government might accept that as an
exact statement of the demands of the
United States. Having made the docu-
ment, the president believes himself to
be the person to be The best competent
I TO construe its meaning. and the Amer
Yican commissioners are consequently

Inasmuch as the Spanish are making
most strenuous efforts to assert their
sovereignty over the Philippines, all
based upon the use of the word dis

that part of the protocol relating to the
future Of the Philippines, it may be
stated that the American commission
ers have been obliged to call attention
to the fact that NJ. Cambon, who acted
for the Spanish government in arrang-
ing the protocol, declared positively
