New York, March 1O.-A special to the
Evening World from Key West. Fla. SAYS:
Among the passengers on the Olivette from
Havana to-day was Senator Proctor of
Vermont. who has been making study of
Cuba and the Cubans. As soon as Senator
Proctor had registered. he sent up his card
to Admiral Sicard. He was shown to the
admirals room, and was closeted with him
for two hours. The object of the interview
presumably is to deliver the admiral some
messages from Commander Converse, of
the Montgomery.
Colonel Parker said to an Evening World
reporter:
THE senator's trip to Cuba was to salts
Cuban question. 1t has no political signif-
cance whatever. The famine, suffering and
awful destitution among the reconcentra-
does are almost indescribable. The
alcalde of Matanzas told me that 5000 per-
sons had died of starvation in that city
during the last year, and that 500 had
died during February.
I'm a ward of the hospital at Matanzas
there are 100 Cubans. most Of them sleep
ing on the floor. We spent half hour at
the hospital, and during that time three of
the patients in that ward died. Around

John G. Bishop. candidate for mayor, was
at the election commissioners office all the

had no show of being nominated. But he
took his defeat with a merry grace. He
said to reporter for The Journal, when
asked how he felt:

Scott Harrison, who was running like n
race horse in all the wards. sat on a table.
surrounded by a group of friends. who
were congratulating him. The indications
were that Harrison would easily lead the
entire ticket.
Scott Harrison is, a nephew of ex-Presi-
dent Harrison, and of j. Scott Harrison,
the real estate dealer of this city: Mr.:
Harrison ran for county treasurer in 1894
and was elected, but the Office was stolen
from him by forgeres made in the election
tally sheets by Democrats. In 1896 Harri-
son ran again for county treasurer, and the
returns showed he was beaten by 81 votes,
but in reality. If a fair count had been
made. it would have shown his election

for the Office of city treasurer, was at the
city hall last night for a short time and
was very much discouraged when he saw
how Harrison was running. He and Har-
rison talked the situation over laughingly
and Marlatt said he was going home to bed.
C. E. Burrham and Thomas Jones, rival
candidates for police judge, sat near each
other and anxiously kept tally of the vote
for them as it came in and was read off.
Burnkam, the successful one, is 80 years
old. He is the law partner of George n.
Elliott. He was elected city attorney in
1924 and reelected in 1896
Close tally on the returns was kept by

o'clock fourteen precincts had been heard
from and Bell was in the lead over 500
votes. Then Bells nomination was con-
ceded.

They go about their duties with ease and readiness, initiating their human su- periors with such accuracy as to afford ample cause for mingled astonish- ment and mirth. The show is of a kind that is exceedingly enjoyable to children.
