THE SPANISH TORPEDO FLEET
Interesting Preparations for n.
Trip Across the Atlantic.

New York, March S.--A Cadiz CORR
spondent of the Herald says:
Much interest is taken in the comm.
voyage of the torpedo destroyers and to-
pedo boat squadron. Its novelty and IN.
manner in which the boats will be riogod
are much deliberated upon and may be Of
interest to naval men.
In the Rayo and AZor alone it has bean
necessary to repair the machinery. On
the torpedo boats Terror, Furor and Pin.
ton temporary rigging is arranged for
three masts and for small sails to be used
if possible. The magazines have been
emptied of war material, so as to carry
action. The torpedo destroyer ARTILLERY
on deck has been dismounted to max.
them more seaworthy. All these guns have
been placed in such position that they car
be remounted at moments notice.
The transatlantic steamer City of Cadiz
will accompany the squadron. She is filled
with coal and provisions literally up to her
scuppers. She is now fitted as a war
transport and has on deck four cannon of
y centimetres calibre, two of Q cent?.
metres, two mitrailleuses, and two rapid
fire guns. In her bunkels she carries
large supply of coal solely for the squad
ron One hundred tons is in sacks ready
for immediate use.
In order that the trip may not be de.
layed more than necessary, on the deck of
the transatlantic steamer is fixed large
spirit and two pipes. which will serve to
launch into the ocean water-tight eases.
which will contain water, victuals and
fresh bread. In this manner all provis.
ions will be distributed during the vow
age.
1t is estimated that the squadron will
travel at the rate of 10 miles an hour, 40
days time being taken on the trip The
squadron will have to be recoaled three
times during the passage, revictualed each
day, and the start depends on the condi.
ton of the weather.

RAILROADS WIN THE CASE.
Supreme Court knocks Out the Ne
braska Freight Rate Law.

Washington, March S.-Justice Harlan
has delivered an opinion in the Nebraska
maximum freight case. He held the Ne
braska law to be contrary to the l4th
amendment in that it authorized the tax
ing of property without due process of law
and was therefore invalid. Hence the rail
road won. Justice Harlans opinion at
filmed the opinion of the circuit court oil
appeals of the Eighth circuit, which was
against the maximum freight rates law
and favorable to the railroads. This case
was instituted to test the validity OF the
law passed by the Nebraska Legislature in
1893, prescribing maximum rates for the
transportation of freights by railroads
within the state. The decision sustains
the contention of the railroad companies
and held against the validity of the law
The opinion was based largely on the
charge of unrea sonableness. Justice
Brewer made computation showing the
reduction effected in freight rates amount
ed on an average to 294 per cent, which ne
held was too great a change. The case has
been twice argued in the supreme court
Hon. w. j, Bryan appearing as one OF the
counsel for the state at the last hearing.

EXPEDITION TO THE YUKON.
Canada Is Sending Semi-MiIitary
Party.

Winnipeg, Man, March 9.-The Royal
Canadian dragons here have been Or
dere to prepare to move to the Yukon.
They will form a part of a military expe
dition. which the federal government is
sending to that part of the dominion The
expedition will be 260 strong.
Hardly n Military Expedition.
Ottawa. Ont, March 9-The report that
the dominion government intends sending
military expedition to the Yukon is not
altogether accurate. What the govern
ment is contemplating is to send out men
and officers OF the permanent corps to the
Klondike in future instead of taking away
more of the mounted police which would
necessitate engaging new policemen. In
this way a saving can be effected and the
permanent corps have Il little experience
at roughing it in the west instead of lying
in idleness in the garrisoned cities

SPAIN wITHDRAws THE REQUEST.
Found That the Government stands
Behind General Lee.

Washington, March Spain has with
drawn her request for the recall of Con
sui General Lee. 1t is believed the Incl
dent is practically closed. The withdraw
al came yesterday in the shape of an Off
cial communication from Minister Wood
ford.
1t is stated the request was never put in
the shape of demand, but was merely a
suggestion on the part of Spain, and when
she found it would not be pleasantly re-
ceived by this country she promptly with
drew the request.
1t is learned that the Spanish objection
to Lee is based largely upon his sympathy
for the Cubans and some of his utterances

which have found their way Unto print
is understood the Spaniards also take i
ceptions to the friendly relations and con-
panionship existing between Lee and a.
correspondents of papers which have hoo.
decidedly unfriendly to Spain. 1t is /.
lieved De LONE carried information ca,o,
lated to make the Spanish governman,

L'rbliDilN'
In responding to the request for General
Lees recall the president does not appear
to have deemed the subject open to such
discussion as would require the views OF
his cabinet associates and after brief eX-
change between the White house and the
state department the negative answer
was dispatched to Minister Woodford.
One phase of the incident that tends to
show the firm stand taken by the admin
istration is the expedition with which the
action was accomplished. Such mat
ter ordinarily is laid before the cabinet.
the views of all its members personally
given, and the fullest opportunity afford
ed for discussion.
Grounds for Lees Recall.
The ground on which General Lees re-
call was asked is not officially disclosed.
1t is known, however, that the Spanish
government has chafed for some time over
General Lees presence in Havana, al
though this had never taken the form of
a definite protest prior to the present
time. 1t began to assume IA more serious
aspect shortly after the arrival of the
Maine at Havana.
At that time General Lee escorted Cap
tain Sigsbee on his round of official calls.
These were made with due formality, but
the Spanish officials took offense when
the calls were restricted to General Blan-
co, Admiral Manterola and the represent
service, and did not include Premier Gal
veZ and his associates of the autonomist
cabinet, who represented the new civil re-
gime which Spain is seeking to enforce.
The matter came to the attention of Senior
de LONE, the Spanish minister at Wash
| ington. and although there were no pro-
tests, the status of the situation doubtless
was learned at the state department, as
suitable amends were made by Captain
Sigsbees call on DIR. Congosto, the civil
secretary general, Premier Galvez, and his
associates.
There was like irritation over dinner
given by General Lee to the officers Of the
Maine. The list of guests on that occasion
is said to have omitted some of the Span
ish naval officers and to have included
quite conspicuously the names of a num-
Der of American newspaper correspond
ents who We're regarded by the Spanish
officials at Havana as antagonistic to
them. This was also brought to the at
tention of the officials but was not made
the basis for any action, but rather of UNI
official Spanish criticism of General Lees
general mode of procedure.

HOW SHE DID IT.
1iri Cashiers Mind Reading methods :,
 Making Change.

The girl cashier of a Madison st,a.. restaurant was for three weeks believed py one of the customers to be lineai oescendant of Morgan le Fay and to nave some of the family traits of HalIar the second sight magician. for aha seemed to know by intuition or instinct or something else what was the nrice of .ne meal he had consumed and also just sne amount of money in his hand when ne approached to pay. He first noticed snat when he presented a 35 cent check she immediately laid upon the rubber mat dime and nickel which she had been holding for change.
 How, this man inouired of b;r, self, did she know that l5 cents would be the correct changer There was no earthly way for her to tell what money l was going to offer her either How dld she come to have the exact change readl without a second s delay or with. out having to go to the cash register for 1F" He could not answer to his own satisfaction.
 The next day he bought a 45 cent meal. and she promptly laid a nickle before him, the 5 cent piece being the only coin she held in her hand. It was the correct amount, as be gave her half dollar He experimented several times afterward and at last appealed to her for information.
 Why" she said, didn't you ever notice the tint of your check?" When I see you coming 20 feet away, know by the slate oolored check that you have eaten 20 cents worth. If you have 6 red ticket, that warns me that you want to pay for two bit meal A blue one means 80 cents. This yellow one Is, of course, for 40 cents. The amount is printed upon the check, but the color is my warning. :"
 "Yes, ]" said the other, somewhat re. lieved, "that seems easy. But still my money is not of different colors- How do you know what change to have ready? That's mind reading, sure.''
 "Not at all When you come with 8 quarter ticket, you will usually give me the exact change or half a dollar. have quarter ready for you in my left hand in case you give me a half Sup pose your ticket is 30 cent one; you II either give me the correct amount or & half dollar-or perhaps dollar With 15 cents in one hand and 50 cents in the other I'm ready for any demonstra- tion almost.

Showing Ones Varying View of Coli as He
 Plays Well or HI.
 On the links of the Island Golf club at Garden City, N. Y., two men were having a hot game, with success about even. They were good friends and com plimented each other on their good shots and looked the other way after a foozle. Just as the younger one stepped upon the tee to drive off for the sixth hole very swagger cart came spinning up the road that crosses the links near that tee. A stunning young woman was driving She pulled up sharply near the tee and called out to the man about to drive:
 George, dear, won't you come home now and not delay luncheon?''
 The man strengthened up with an air of disgust at the interruption and re. plied
 Mot now. I'm playing the game of my life. D
 ''I wish you'd come, she said.
 "No, not now" be answered. "1'm playing too we'll wouldn't quit this for 40 luncheons. I'm breaking my rec ord by ten storkes ]"
 ''Well, I'll drive up and down here and wait for you, she said.
 As she started off George, dear, turned to continue the game of his life. He sliced his drive and lost the ball in the blackberry bushes in the ravine. He dropped a new ball and lost one stroke. Then he topped the ball on the niblick shot out of the whir and didn't gain three feet. Finally he got out with seven and was bunkered in tho road that crosses the field. There he lost two more strokes and the rest of his temper. Finally he got out of the bunker and with beautiful lie us9d his brassey for a three quarters iron and overshot the hole by 50 yards into the tall grass. There the ball was lost
 Ten minutes later the swagger cart was spinning down the road at the top speed of tie horse, the stunning young woman sitting very erect and statu- esuue and driving with superb skill. In the back of the cart, with his heels dan gling and brandishipg two golf clubs, sat George, dear.
 The game of his life was over. New York Sun.
