FIRST PETITION FILED.
Proceedings in bankruptcy Unde
Recent Act of Congress

Proceedings in Bankruptcy Under
Recent Act Of Congress-,
The first petition for an adjudication In
bankruptcy under the act of Congress
approved July 1, 1893, was filed today in
the clerks office of the District Supreme
court by Mr.. Theodore L. Page An order
referring the case to one of the referees
recently appointed by Chief Justice Bing
ham to act in the bankruptcy court was
presented to Justice Bradley, who declined
to sign 1t, stating that it has been the rule
all over the country to await the conyen-
ton of the United States Supreme Court
in October before acting on any of the petit
tons filed under the new law.
The law prescribes that the Supreme
Court shall prepare rules and forms for the
conduct of the courts thus created, and
until the court meets and takes action i'm
the matter a majority of the judges all over
the country have left bankruptcy matters
in allegiance Justice Bradley said that the
petition might be filed to take precedence
over any others in the consideration of the
court, after the rules were laid down by
the Supreme Court.

the senator's reported declaration that

A platoon Of sailors on the United
States cruiser Marblehead, while drill
ing with the new Lee rifles, accidental
ly discharged their pieces and wounded
the wife Of Commander McCalla and
four seamen. None Of the injured
seem to have been hit by the small,
swift steel bullets, but by flying splin-
tiers of the ventilators and ether things
that got in the way. 1t was known
that the Lee rife was the highest-pow-
cred, longest-ranged and most danger
Gus weapon in the world, but it was not

Capt. Gen. Blanco telegraphs that the
riots in Havana 'Iack political signifl-
cance," and Secretary General
Congosto adds that they "are
absolutely of no Importance" That
is all very well so long as
the American consulate general
is unframed, but it is worth while to
note that the disturbance was not
caused by the starving Cuban reconcen-
trados, but by the Spaniards, the very
people who should be the hackers Of
Blanco and his autonomy policy, if he
is to have any hackers at all. The fact
is, autonomy and conciliation are I'M
popular with the Spanish, and this vio-
lence was protest against it and a de-
monstration in favor Of Weyler. To
outsiders. it might seem that there was
considerable significance in the out
break, despite the official pooh-poohs.
1t might well be the beginning of rev.
olution among the spaniards them

1t begins to be evident that the
younger Edison can give his father
points at talking and amusing the
newspaper men The New York report
ers have made him invent machine
for COMPRISING air by the wave power
of the sea- He would anchor an i'm
mense platform of pistons twenty miles
from shore, which would force the air
into an immense reservoir, whence it
could be conveyed ashore for operating
engines and dynamos. Electricity
would be the cheapest power, and at a
cost of $2O,OO0,OOO for the plant, a mil
lion horse power could be generated.
The younger wizard admits that there
are some minor mechanical difficulties
remaining to be solved, but of course
that doesn't interfere with the writing
of a good story"

Secretary of Agriculture Wilson comes
out with statement that the annexa-
ton Of Hawaii will not menace the
American beet sugar industry, and this
is accompanied with the announcement
that Senator Thurston of Nebraska and
Senator Gear Of Iowa will accordingly
cease from opposition to the treaty. 1t
may be inferred from Senator Morgan's
action in loading Senator Hears desk
with volumes relating to Hawaii, that
the reports were wrong which declared
that our senior senator had been con-
verified to the cause of annexation. How
ever, the converts seem to be increasing

Can't Paw the Bill.

Spain paid down ELS, 900 on purchas-
ing the Garibaldi aud promised to pay
e75, 900 more at the end of March. The
last day of March the Spanish ambss-
sador said that his government was not
able to pay this sum and asked for de-
lay to the end of April. This PROPOSE
tiOn not being accepted, the Spanish
government then proposed to pay 81
O00, 900 pesetas in order to have the
Garibaldi delivered at once, undertak-
ing to complete her in Spanish ship
yards. The Ansaldos seemed disposed
to accept this sum and agreed to take
the balance. amounting to seventeen
and half million, in longtime bonds,
but the italian government again OBJ
jected. insisting that no warship should
leave Italy unless entirely paid for. 1t
is most probable therefore, that Spain
will not be able to obtain possession Of
the Garibaldi.
Many young Italians are leaving
Italy for Marseilles in order to embark
there for Cuba to join the insurgents.

A special to the New Y ork Her.

A panic reigns in Havana tonight.
The cable this morniog brought many
alarming private messages, and as .
result the city is in sa tumult. Amer
leans are rushing to get away.
Spaniards are scanning the horizon be-
yond Moro for the coming of the
white equadrou, whose presence In
Cuban waters is hourly expected. Law
ton & Childs, the American bankers
and agents OF the Plant line steam
ships, received an early message that
the Mascotte should not on any &C.
count be held beyond the sailing hour,
O'Clock this afternoon, and that the
Olivette would not make the extra trip
that bad been promised.
This message also announced that
Gen. Lee would be ordered to with
draw from Havana today. The result
of this message was that Lawton &
Childs did not open their doors for
general business this morning, though
American customers were cared for.
Their action was followed by all the
other American houses, AID, indeed,
by most of the French and German
firms. as we'll as some Spanish shops
alongS O'Reilly and Obispo streets,
which were deserted, while people
gathered lin excited knots to discuss

Washington, April g.
war board held a session this
morning which was conduct
ed with the stri ;test secrecy.
The board s5nt for Assistant
Secretary Roosevelt, Captain
CrowninsheiId, Captain Bat
ter and Commander Glover.
They considered the final or
ders to the squadrons and
completed the arrangement
of the program for the speedy
distribution of all available
vessels on Monday, and evo-
Iutions that will be COM
menced at a designated mo-
ment.
The mission of the flying
squadron when it sails will
be to take Porto Rico. It is
understood that Capt. Samp-
sons SQUADRON will take care
of Cuba and the objective
point of Commodore Dewey's
squadron is the Philippines.
All the movements will be
prompt and simultaneous.
A much discussed point of
speculation is whether the
Viscaya or Oquendo will
leave Porto Rico at once for
home upon the declaration of
war. If they remain at Porto
Rico, they will be quickly
overpowered or butted up in
harbor.
