THREE-CENT CAR FARES
CITY OFFICIALS PERMITTING THE
LITIGATION TO sLUMBER.
No Disposition to Take 1t Up Until Au-
tumn-0ther Matters in
the Courts.

II looks as though the city officials do not
intend to take any steps soon to secure
decision in the 3-cent-street-car-fare
case. pending in the Federal Court.
After it was decided that an APP
peal would not lie to the Court
Of Appeals at Chicago it was an
nounced with great flourish that steps
would at once be taken to have the case set
down for hearing of the permanent injunc-
ton proceedings, in order that the case
might be on its way to the Supreme Court
OF the United States before tho summer
vacation. While the date of adjournment
has not been fixed by the court, it gen
orally occurs about July i, so that there is
but about six more weeks Of court The
city officials have proceeded on the theory
that IL the Citizens Street-railroad Com
pany decided to take evidence to support
the contention that a 3-cent fare is unreal
sonable, a master would have 70 be APP
pointed, and that about three weeks would
be required for the hearing of witnesses.
On the other hand, the company has never
intimated whether or not it would submit
evidence on this point, other than the at
t1rneys lave declared the appointment of
q master was unnecessary, and that depo-
sitions could be taken and submitted at
once to the court. The city officials have
left 1t entirely with the company to suit its
own convenience in the matter of disposing
OF the case. It is now months since the de-
cision OF the Chicago court, and not one
step has been taken since, save that there
has been some talk among the attorneys.
At the Federal Court Ii is said that the
understanding is that the 3-cent-fare case
is not to come up until fall. AS the docket
now stands it could not be heard much be-
fore the middle of June, and that would
leave but two weeks to hear evidence, to
say nothing OF the time consumed in ar
gument, and which the court would most
likely wish to consider before handing
down decision as to whether the
Injunction preventing the city and county
officials from preventing the company from
collecting more than cents shall stand.
Meantime Indianapolis is to be the scene
erings are to he held which may bring 1O0,
600 visitors to the city. The great advertise
ment it would give the city for them to go
home and report indianapolis one of the
few places in the country having 3-cent
fares will be lost
Nor is anything heard Of the 75-cent gas
ordinance, the validity Of which was at
apolis Gas Company. When the city's an
swer was filed it was said that a rule would
be taken against the company requiring it
to file further pleadings. 1t was said that
every effort would be made to reach a de-
cision before the summer adjournment, as
in the 3-cent-fare case, now more than a
Var old.
nd stilI the city officials denied last fall
that there was an understanding with
these two corporations by which the cases
against them were not to be pushed in con-
Bideration Of political favorS.

Catherine Guenther to whom he was mar

that Montauk Point will eventually be-
come an army post. The project is under
consideration at Washington now. Mon
tauk Point was post IN 1872, and the two

place for a post
Across the sound the Notifications on
Gardeners Island are in course of con-
struction, and it is the opinion of the

Gen. Wheeler said this morning: There
are 1900 recruits coming here this week
from Tampa, and 1 am sure that it is the
intention of the department to keep them
or some others here"
Gen. Shafter says that he knows that
Montauk will be garrisoned, and agrees
with Gen. Wheeler that this place is ad-
mirable for such a purpose.
Gen. Shafter though still i'll of malaria,
takes command of the post this aft
ernoon, and hereafter all business will be
transacted through him. Gen Shafter to-
day moved into the clubhouse, which will
hereafter be camp headquarters and to-
morrow Gen Wheeler will move his head
quarters to the cavalry division.

Desired Eject.

Desired Effect.
Santiago, Sept. 5.-The first voluntary
surrender of arms on the part of the
Cubans since the Americans occupied
Santiago occurred today, when 200 men
belonging to Gen. Cebreco's division came
in from their camp near FL Cobre and
turned their arms over to Gen Lawton
The men said they were hungry and de-
sired to go to work. The band was COM
posed of whites and negroes and was
headed by an officer belonging to Gen
Cebreco's staff
Gen. Lawton put the men at work, pay
ing them in rations. He told them he
could not pay them in money.
The Cuban officer told Gen. Lawton that
his policy of paying no attention. to the
Cubans had taken away all their brag
and buster. They were rapidly growing
tired of loafing in the hills. and ne looked
TO see the armies commence to melt away
soon. Hunger was having its effect on
the Cubans. They have no commissa riat.
forage is scarce and living off the country
which another army has picked clean is
no easy task. The men realize that the
war Is Overland all except few who wish
TO compel the Americans 10 recognize their
force of arms, are beginning 10 want to
go home
Col. De Manduley of Gen. Garcia's
STAN, arrived here today from Gibara.
Col De Manduley is an old resident of
Santiago. He gave up an important place
IN the provincial court here to enter the
heid against Spain. He called on Gen.
l-awton on his arrival to deliver friend
ly message from Gen. Garcia. Gen. Law
ton VIII give him his old place as soon
as the courts are re-established. This he
VIII do in order TO encourage the Cubans
10 disperse and go to their homes.
Cen Lawton has sent word to the Gu
pans that he will issue rations 40 all who
surrender their arms, but he will not
consider applications from men with
arms in their hands.
The street cleaning department had a
parade this afternoon. The Cuban flag
was raised alongside the american en-
sign at the head of the procession When
Gen. Lawton saw the Cuban flag he or
dered II removed. and severely repri-
manded Major Barker for allowing il to
be carried.

Each blockful of people constitutes a

fact, than any English, German or Ital-
