Madrid Feb 1O-At n meeting OF the Spanish
Cabinet held to-day under the presidency OF the
Queen Regent. the Minister for Foreign Affairs.
Senior Gulon. read a dispatch from Sehor Dupuy
de LONE. the Spanish Minister at Washington
saying that the published letter to Sehor Canal
ejas written by him. and that his position
consequently had become untenable. and he
begged the Government to accept his reslgna-
tion. The Cabinet decided to accept the resig-
nation Of Seior Dupuy de Lone and the Minis
ters subsequently met and decided to telegraph
to Senior de LONE accepting his resignation and
intrusting TO the First Secretary the conduct OF
the current affairs Of the Legation.
The candidature OF Senior Muruaga to succeed
Sehor de LONE has been abandoned. The Gov
ernment maintains It's reserve, desiring to secure
the approval OF Washington, according to diplo-
matte custom, before appointing Sehor de
L0me's successor.
All the comments on the subject bitterly de-
nounce the business of stealing and publishing
a private letter"
After the Cabinet Council. the Premier, Sehor
Sagasta, told the correspondent OF the Asso-
ciated Press that Se1or Dupuy de LONE had
"bravely" admitted the authorship Of the letter.

ceived too late yesterday evening 10 Obtain

ness Of the letter not being received until early
this morning Senior Canaejas out OF
town, but his secretary said he had never re-
ceived any such letter from De LONE.
For some time past. the authorities here have
been taking extra precautions In guarding the

of the city. on Sunday the guard was rein

TRIBUTES TO MISS WILLARD.
IMPRESSIVE MEMORIAL SERVICES
AT TRINITY CHURCH.

Addresses by Pastors and Temper
nnce Workers Upon the Life of the
National WOman's Christian Tenn
perance Unions Late President.
Her FavOrite Hymn Sung at the
Opening of the Service.
Seldom Is there a service more impress
slve than that held at Trinity Methodist
Church yesterday afternoon in memory of
Miss Frances L. willard, late national
president of the Woman's Christian Tenn
perance Union.
The service was appropriately carried
out and each feature on the programme
was significant. The first hymn was, How
Firm a Foundation" sung to the old
Southern tune and which was one of the
dearest to Miss Willard. When she first
heard it on coming South in the interest
of the organization she marshaled. it made
a lasting impression, and it is said, there
never was a time when South that she did
not request that it be sung. Following
this, the 10th Psalm, the inspiring scrip
ture which actuated the women Of Hills
boro, o., to start the first crusade on the
saloon, was read. The White Ribbon band
now call it the Crusade Psalm" Prayer
was offered by Rev o. F. Cook, pastor OF
Grace Methodist Church, and another
hymn, "Blest Be the Tie That Binds
was sung.
Mr.. w. B. Stubs opened the addresses
with pretty tribute to Miss Willard,
confininp his raroa rkc In the main IN her
life work from a temperance standpoint.
He spoke of her miraculous powers as an
organizer and the interchangeable effort she
put forth throughout her life in gat-
ing the movement against the liquor
traffic, He referred to her wonderful men
tai capacity and spoke of the organic pa
pers she had drawn with such matchless
skill.
An address was also delivered by Rev. f.
A. BosworIh. His talk was highly COM
plimentary, full Of kind references, and
had a decided impression on those who
heard 1t. He said the life of Miss VIII
lard should be emulated by every Ameri-
can woman. He concluded with an earn
est appeal for all to shape their lives after
that of the dead leader.
The addresses were concluded by Mrs.
Webb president of the local Woman's
Christian Temperance Union. She was
in close touch with Miss Willard many
years, and was in position to know some
thing of her real nature She was init
mately associated with Miss Willard when
in Savannah from time to time on her
lecturing tours, and always took the high
est pleasure in entertaining her. 1t was.
therefore that she spoke with conSidera-
bic emotion and al times showed difficulty
in speaking, so intense was her feeling.
She referred to Miss Wizards capacity
for the good and not the bad. The man
ner in which Miss Willard managed the
affairs of the union was reviewed by Mrs.
Webb and her talk was replete with pref
ty tributes throughout.
AS is always the custom with the Wo-
mans Christian Temperance Union meet.

old hymn, GOD be with you tin we meet

A Defective Flue Made 1t Appear
That the Church Was in Danger.
1t was thought for a few minutes yes
terday morning shortly after II o'clock
that st. Johns Church was on fire.
Smoke was seen issuing from the north
east corner of the roof in the neighbor-
hood of one of the fiues, and the attention
of Rev. Charles H. Strong, who was near
by. was called to the matter. He tele-
phoned the fire headquarters and request
ed Chief Mcguire to send up a ladder and
have the trouble attended to. The hook
and ladder responded to the call, there be-
ing no alarm, and an investigation was
made.
1t was found that there was defect in
the fiue which caused the smoke to come
out under the caves. Further lnvestiga-
ton showed a defect in the smoke pipe
leading from the furnace to the fiue. The
fire in the furnace was put out and the
smoke thereby stopped. Steps have been
taken to have the damage repaired.
Fires have been kept in the furnace for
the last day or two on account of the fact
that daily services are now being held
The fire yesterday, however, amounted to
nothing but smoke which came through

WANT A DISPATCH BOAT.
New York Papers Want TO Charter

New York Papers want TO Charter
the j. ii. EstilI.
An effort is being made 10 charter the
steam pilot boat J. II. Estil 10 carry disS
patches between Havana and Key West.
For several days three leading New YORK
newspapers have been seeking a suitable
steamer for this purpose. The Propeller
Towboat Company has been approached
several times. but it has declined to char.
ter any of its tugs.
Yesterday several kilograms were re-
ceived in reference to chartering the j. Fl
Estill. II IS understood that the COM
pany is willing to charter the vessel for
the purpose, provided suitable arrange
ments can be made.
One Of the New York papers had an OPP
ton on the vessel and last night a propo-
sition was submitted. II win probably be
decided to-day which paper. if any, will
engage her.
There is, perhaps, no steamer on the
coast more suitable for quick trips be,
tween Havana and Key West than the J
H. Estill. She is capable of making hf
teen knots an hour. is seaworthy and il
manned by competent officers and crew.
She is said 10 be the finest boat of her
class i'm the United States.

his life and that he was afraid 10 live with
her unless some restraint was provided
The two got into a heated discussion of
their grievances in court and were aided
by number Of other Syrians who were
along to sec the case well tried. The
confusion became such as to remind the
court of Stevenson's grinding babel Of
the street" In the crowd appeared
Amer cans, Germans, Syrians. Jews, Irish,
Italians, English, Greeks. negroes and
MeXicans.
Justice Bevans realized the Importance
of restoring peace between Youns and
wife. He required the woman to give a
qualified bend, which she did and was
thereupon released. quite a crowd gath
cred and the case was regarded as one of
the first in which the justice was out
witied in preserving order
