Action at Washington is AnX-
iOusly Awaited.
The Result of the Proposition
of Armistice
is ALSO REGARDED
With Much Anxiety and But
Little Hope
Is Felt That 1t Will Result
FavOrably.

Madrid, April 19.-Governmental and
diplomatic circles are anxiously ex-
pecting developments at Washington.
The cabinet council is sitting to dis
cuss the text of the speech from the
throne, to elect a number of life sena
tors and to settle other parliamentary
details, for the coming session. The
town is tranquil
Ell Correro, Ministerial. says: cit is
reported from Washington that in the
event of the Senate'S resolution prevail
ing President Mckinley will avail him
self of his privilege of ten days ere CIV
ing the resolution his approval provid-
ed he does not employ the veto. Amid
much excitement the note of war with
Spain prevails at Washington; but
further delays will probably occur, ow-
ing to parliamentary routine or Presi-
dent McKinley's vacillation.''
Ell Epoca, discussing the question of
privateering says:
Spain cannot lawfully be prevented
by Europe from employing the right,
having reserved her liberty of action
at the time of the declaration of Paris
All circles are exercised intensely in
expectation of the result of the visit to
the insurgent camp of the commission
erS of the insular government. By
most people this commission is consid-
cred a forlorn hope, and the general
public anticipates the worst.
Ell Heraldo, pointing to the position of
Senior Polo y Bernabe, at Washington,
says:
''Spain's minister is stopping his ears
and closing his eyes while the govern
ment to which he is accredited passes
a resolution, ignoring his country's pre-
scriptive right"
1t is asserted on good authority that
the mission to the insurgent camp is
limited to an offer to the insurgent
chief to recognize their present grades
in the future insular army, after the
withdrawal of the Spanish forces from
Cuba, (which will remain under the
protectorate of Spanish rule with a
governor preferentially a civilian"
1t is said that the parliament about
to assemble will sanction this arrange
ment.
The cabinet council, after reading the
last dispatch received by Senior Gullon,
the foreign minister, Admiral Bermajo,
minister of marine, and Lieutenant
General Correct, minister of war, ap-
proved the speech from the throne as
drafted
Much Indignation has been caused in
English speaking circles in Madrid by
an "unwarrantable attack upon Cen
eraI Stewart L. Woodford, appearing in
two issues of an American journal"
The Americans courtesy is much ap-
preciated by all in English speaking
circles, and especially by the newspa-
per representatives.
While maintaining the high level of
Americas diplomatic reputation, he has
done so without losing personally the
esteem of the people to whose court he
is credited.

who are striving to stir up fight against
w. ]. Buchan. The sole reason why a
fight will not be started will be the lack
of time in which to organize it.
The first effort in this direction was
made Saturday when it was discovered
that c. w. Trickett and crowd of anti
Buchan men who were defeated at the
primaries and in the convention intended
to prepare and file before the district con-
vention an enormous protest against Blu
chan's candidacy, charging fraud at the
primaries.
When the secret leaked out and Blu
chan's friends traced up its origin the au-
thors of the scheme denied it and stated
that they were standing by the agreement
made some months ago, to the erect that
the entire county would abide by the re-
suit of the primaries.
J. X Cubbison, who was defeated by
Mr.. Buchan, is supporting Buchan loyalty
and every effort is being made to prevent
a recurrence of the fighting of two years
ago.

The tremendous strain of a soldiers

FINDS A PETRIFIED CAT.
Puss Victim of Inhuman Workmen
in Louisville.

Louisville, KY. April ia petrified cat
was found imbeded in one of the cellar
walls of the Frank Fehr Brewing COM
pany's plant. 1t was in that part of the
brewery that was formerly occGpied by
the old Otto Brewing company, and
the wall built fifteen years ago the
cat had certainly been in it's tomb for that
number of years.
The freak was found by Fred Stengel,
an employee of the brewery, who brought
it upstairs. where it was placed on exhi
bition in the office The forma ton of the
cat is perfect and a few tufts of hair still
adhere to its back The tail which is
curved over the back, is thoroughly petri-
fed The ears and hide not quite
hard rock, but are harder than raw
hide. The freak is attracting a great deal
of attention and the prOprietOrS of the
brewery will probably place it in some
museum.
The theory is that the cat was walled
up in the bricks while it was alive by
some hard-hearted workman.

MAINE VICTIMS WIDOW
Loved by a Man Who Raises Row
Because She Won't Wed Him.

Jersey City, N. J., April 19.-Mrs. Ber-
tina Campbell, widow of David Campbell
one of the sailors of the Maine, was
complainant in the police court today
against Gustave Titus. After Camp
bell had enlisted Mrs. Campbell opened
a boarding house at No. 140 Eighth
street and Titus went to live there. Mrs.
Campbell told Justice Potts that he
showed her much attention. but did
not become offensive in his advances
until after the wreck of the Maine,
when he became profuse in his declara-
tionS of admiration and love and in
truded on the widows sorrow to such
an extent as to make his presence pos
itively distastefu1, and insisted that the
widow should marry him. Then she
ordered him from the house
Last night Titus appeared at the
house, it is alleged, in an intoxicated
condition and again demanded that the
widow should become his wife. He
became bOiSterouS and proceeded to
wreck the house. Policeman Cox ar
rested Titus and Justice Potts held him
in $500 bail for trial on a charge of ma
liciOuS mischief.
