The utmost that the Cuban patriots

The desperate state of Spain is shown
by the result of her attempt to introduce
autonomy into Cuba. It is likely that
the queen regent and Sagasta honestly
endeavored to give Cuba partial au-
tonomy. At once the tory residents of
Havana Jared up and declared that nev-
er should autonomy be enforced on the
island. They would have the old regime
just as it was or nothing. Rather than
see autonomy they would let the island
be lost to Spain altogether. 1t was these
tories who melted the hostility to Amer
leans in Havana which resulted in mobs
and rioting. . ..'~.. ~

The Little Affair with Siam.

MIR. Il. ". kellett is American vice
consul to the kingdom Of Siam Last
November Mr.. Barrett, our minis
ter to Siam, sent Mr.. Kellett to the
town Of Chiengmai on business. Mr..
Kellett sent his clerk to the postofice
at 8 O'Clock in the evening. The clerk
was native Siamese, and he carried a
slim little silver headed cane. The po-
lice arrested him on the charge of vio-
lating a town ordinance forbidding the
carrying of dangerous sticks at
night. It appears that the Siamese po-
lice were very glad Of an excuse to mo-
lest an employee Of foreigner. Word
was sent to Mr.. Kellett, who was indig-
nant. He proceeded at once to the po-
lice station, demanded and got his clerk
and started home with him. On the
way he was suddenly surrounded by a
body Of Siamese soldiers, who began to
beat and batter him with their muskets.
He resisted and backed up against a
wall apd laid about him with his cane
lively. Some missionaries who came by
persuaded the vice consul to let the SOL
diers take his clerk back to the police
station, which he did. The soldiers had
stopped him and beaten him for taking
the clerk away before the police court
had released him. IT, ......
Mr.. Kellett acquainted Minister Bar

csc government was very lofty and in
dependent. It refused to let any body
but one Of its own heather Siamese
courts sit on Mr.. Kellett' case. But the
United States has treaty with Siam,
as with other Asiatic nations, specifying
that our citizens shall be tried by Amer
lean consular courts or by mixed courts

fused to permit the mixed commission

Assassin of Empress of Austria
Does Not Want to Be Called
a Degenerate. i,
Says He Committed Murder of Queen
From Conviction of Truth of
Anarchistic Doctrines.
Not Only Sovereigns and Their Ministers Viii
Be Struck, but All Who Make Men
Miserable.

Geneva, Sept. Ion the order of
a magistrate, Luigini, the assassin of
the empress of Austria, was taken, this
afternoon, from Saint Anthony prison
to the anthropometrical institute,
where he was measured and photo
graphed. Photographs were given to
the press and will b. distributed to
the police in the cities where he lived.
In the course of a second examina-
ton, as to his history and the motives
for he crime, Luigini said he had
never known his father or mother.
He was brought up at Parma, Italy.
IN a charity school, and at the age of
10 was thrown on the streets without
resources. He worked as an unskilled
laborer until he was 20. Then he served
in the Italian arncv three years and a
half.
On leaving his regiment he was en-
ployed as the valet de chambre of the
Prince of Argon for three months. At
this time anarchistic ideas began to
possess his mind and-to use his own
Words-'prevented me from remaining
in servitude."
In the course of a life Of adventure
he happened to be at Buda Pesth in
1894. There, for the first time, he saw
Empress Ellza He was miserable
and weak and applied to the Italian
consul to be returned to Italy. The
consul sent him to Fiune.
His description of his subsequent
Wanderings was vague, and he said
seldom, if ever. he obtained work.
While staying at L~aussaneh he saw a
lille outside a shop, purchased it with
no conceived purpose and made a
clumsy wooden handle for it.
In prison he has boosted of his crime
and he has addressed a letter to a,
Milan newspaper expressing a fear lest
he be mistaken by Prof. Tomhroso for
a degenerate. Dilating in this COM
munication upon the objects of mill
tant anarchism, he wrote:
above all, it is the great who must
be struck. Not only sovereigns and
their ministers will be reached by the
comrades, but all who make men mis-
cradle on earth"
He says he was not impelled by mis-
cry to kill the empress, as such a
course would have been idiotic, but
he committed the deed in order that
such crimes. following one upon the
other, might cause all who impoverish
the populace to tremble n SILVER.
The document concludes with this dec
laration: II am an anarchist by con-
viction."

Portsmouth, N. H., Sept. 12.-Most of
the Spanish sailors and marines cap
tured at Santiago, July 3, embarked on
the steamship City Of Rome his morn
ing. Admiral Cervera with his son
Angel, made farewell visits to the Off
GERS Of the navy yard. On his way to
the boat the admiral spoke enthusi-
astically to those who accompanied
him of the treatment the Americans
had accorded to the Spanish prisoners,
to his staff and to himself. He detailed
the many courtesies he had received
at Portsmouth, Annapolis, Norfolk,
New York and Washington. He said
he would carry home with him many
happy recollections of the kindness and
generosity Of those high in official cir
cles as we'll as of citizens in every walk
of life.
The City of Rome with Admiral Ger
vera and staff and over LOO Spanish
prisoners sailed this afternoon for San
lander, Spain. OF the number 1868 men
were from the prison at Seavey's
island.
More trouble is feared at Pana, where
the Penwell mine is to be started with
nonunion labor. The nonunion men will
be guarded by deputy sheriffs. Mayor
Penwell placed men at the volun-
teer fire department, with instructions
to clang the big bell and arouse the
town should a blaze be seen.
