will be 800 infantry still to be raised. That, 1t is thought, can be done.
 Telegrams were received from Captain Wiley of Montgomery yesterday stating that there was no longer any doubt but that the cavalry regiment would be called out, through the efforts of General Wheeler. and asked the officers of the local bat talion to telegraph Representative Under wood in Washington to offer the services of the regiment to the president. This was the only thing new developed in the situa- ton yesterday. The cavafrymen say that the president promised them that when the second call for volunteers came they would be accepted, and for this reason they are feeling very hopeful.
 Tn the meantime, Alabama's quota of B. 300 which must be raised on the first call is yet to be filled. Four volunteers were sent down to Mobile from General Clark's s recruiting office yesterday, as follows: C. c. Walker, J. D. Cross, Wm. Sullivan and John Holly. They will join the Second reg iment, It Is thought, though they will re- port to Colonel Higdon for orders.
 Tho Colored Company
 The question of who will officer the col- lored battalion of colored infantry that will go to make up the states quota of 2.5Oo men assumed an interesting phase yester- day. It now seems that the officers of all the four colored companies will be white men, as the government will not accept them otherwise. Most of the colored vol- unteers, while they would prefer to have company officers of their own choosing and of their own color, realize that 1t will be better for them to go under the command of officers who have had some military training, and accordingly the colored com panies at Huntsville and at Troy have asked the governor to appoint their white officers for them.

r1or and leader, and the head of the COM
mission elected by the Cuban assembly
to visit this country, died here this
morning shortly after 10 O'Clock, at the
Hotel Raleigh, where the commission
has It's headquarters.
The sudden change from the warm
climate of Cuba, with the hardships
he had there endured, to the wintry
weather of New York and Washington,
is responsible for the pneumonia which
resulted in his death. He contracted a
slight cold in New York, which did not
assume an alarming stage until the early
part of last week. Tuesday night, Gen.
Garcia, in company with the other
members of the commission, attended a
dinner given in his honor by Gen. Miles
and it was result of his exposure that
eliminated in his death.
During the twelve hours or more pre-
ceeding dissolution, Gen. Garcia was
conscious most of the time. At inter-
walls he would recognize one or more of
those about him. In his dying moments
as all through his busy and active life,
his thoughts were for his beloved coun-
try and its people, and, among his last

A PERSISTENT
SUITOR SHOT
Old Miner at Susanville Objected to
Attention Paid to His Daughter.

LONG CREEK, Or, Dec. "a messen-
ger who arrived in the city late last
evening from Susanville, in quest of a
surgeon, reports the shooting and prob
ably fatal wounding of Joseph Frazier
by an aged miner named Snodderly.
Persistent attention on the part of Fra
zier toward Snodderly's 17-year-old
daughter is said 10 have been the cause
of the shooting. 1t is said that on the
morning previous to the shooting the
old gentleman made arrangements pre-
paratory to bringing his daughter to
Long Greek. Frazier objected in dem
onstrative way. and hot words were ex-
changed.
Later, while Snodderly was in the
Keeney store, Frazier came in, and
Snodderly picked up rife and fred,
the ball entering the lower portion of
tue right lung and passing through the
liver.
According to statements of persons
down from Susanville, the sentiment of
the community is with snodderly, as it
appears that Frazier's attention toward
the daughter had been prohibited by the
father, and when he attempted to inter
fere with the old gentleman's s plan to re-
move her to this place he knew that
serious trouble would follow.

at Ponce the privileges of the autono-
mist constitution, which they we're ar
rogating to themselves, is what rankles
ever present in the minds of the de-
feated autonomists. The accordance of
this privilege would have been for them
a great victory. The best Judgement
here sustains General Brooke in this
action. Ii the privilege was granted to
cne council it would have to be granted
to all, and each of Porto Rico's 72 muni-
cipaltIes, acting with the power and
latitude c)ntem plated by the autonomist
platform, would have brought much con-
tusioh to the island.
The autonomist party sets up a pro-
longed howl of discomfort in which,
among other things, they declared that
Munoz Rivera, leader of General
Brooka's Ca abinet, had betrayed them,
inasmuch as he had used his influence to
bring about the decision against their
demands. Rivera is an element of po-
litical discord. Six months ago he
theatric4ly declared he would die
wrapped in th- flag of Spain, and he
was the first Porto Rican to swear al
egiance to the United States. He is
the present secretary of state, and since
October II the head OF General Brooke's
advisory board in the insular affairs.
He is capable man and sahemer.
He probably long ago determined to be-
come the political ruler eff Porto Rico.

secretary of states once.

The difference between the appro-
priations made under democratic and
republican rule in the state is well
illustrated by a comparison of the rel
alive cost of running the secretary of
states office under the administration
of Secretary Hinrichsen, and his
successor, Secretary Rose. Taking
the session laws for 1895, which show
the appropriation for the last year Of
Hinrichsen's term (and it was the
most costly Year,, it is found that the
appropriations for the ordinary ex-
penses of his Office, including the
lighting, heating and ordinary care
of the building and grounds, amount
ed to sos, $40. Then taking the ses-
sion laws of 1897, which show
the cost of running the office
under Secretary Roses admin
istration, it is seen that the
S102, $50, a difference of $33, $40. The
difference is shown in the following
items: Hinrichsen, clerical help.
$25, $40; care of the building and
grounds, including janitors and po-
licemen, $1S, 800; heating the capitol
building. including pay of engineers
and firemen, $4,000; lighting the
building, including pay of the electri-
clans, $4,000; state library, $4,000;
postage and stationery, $4,000; flags
for state house, 5000; total, sos, $40.
Secretary Rose, clerical help, $34,-
800; care of building and grounds, in
Guiding pay of janitors and policemen,
$34, $50; heating the building, includ-
ing the pay of engineers and fremen,
$50, $50; lighting the building, includ-
ing the pay of electricians, $4,000;
state library, 81 920; postage and sta
tionery, $4,000; flags for state house.
5000; total, $102, $50.
1t will be seen that the appropria-
tions, with the exception of the pos
taSe and stationery and the flag ac-
counts, are greater under republican
than under democratic rule. Ii is a
comparison that drives republican
gunners from their guns.

himself is quoted as authority for this

war and one of the greatest in history,
Sampson would doubtless have got
