character in Columbus, Ohio. to out

cred that a regular school for crime
existed in the city. The young girl
confessed to having been for over a
year a pupil in a school for pocket

THE HEROIC TEN T H
Famous Uolored Cavalry Will Be Here
Friday.
Preparations for n Proper Reception
to the Gallant Troopers Who
Fought So FcarIcssIy.

The famous 10th Cavalry, the colored
regiment that performed such heroic deeds
at Santiago and by its marvellous proWess
changed probable defeat into victory, vii
arrive in Washington next Friday after
noon on its way south, preparatory to re-
turning to Cuba. To no body of soldiers
was the result at Santiago so surely due
and it is the intention of many friends OF
the men and officers in this city to give
them royal welcome on their arrival here
All lovers of the brave and coura geous will
doubtless be eager to participate in making
the reception a memorable one and abun-
dant opportunity will be afforded them to
do.
Mrs, Ayres of No. 1912 New Hampshire
avenue the wife of Captain Ayres of the
regiment, has the arrangements in charge.
and Mr.. Louis Douglass, son of the late
Frederick Douglass. is also stirring up in
terest in the affair. A fund is being raised
to meet the necessary expense of Il cola
ton in Washington at Potomac Hall, 18th
street and Maryland avenue southwest,
subscriptions to which may be sent to Mrs.
Ayres at the above address. Donations of
provisions and other creature comforts
should be sent to Potomac Hall, where Miss
Ida Neumeyer daughter of Major Ed. Neu-
meyer, will take charge of them.
There viii be doubtless a big turn out to
the heroes of Santiago who deserve so
fully all tnc public honor that can be be-
slowed upon them.

derstand how Quay or l could be implicat-
ed in the trouble of the Peoples Bank.
Neither of us were stockholders or Off

had on deposit there, as state treasurer,
$5O5,0OO. Quay told me the bank held his
personal note for $4,000 at the time it
closed. He SAID it was on an ordinary COM
mercial transact ton. The note was then
overdue. He paid 1T shortly after a re-
ceiver was appointed. The money had on
deposit there has been paid back. Before 1
left the receiver had paid S454,000. Since l
left have received notice that the balance
has been paid. This is all the connection
Quay or have had with the bank. l have
had no financial dealings with Senator
Quay. He is my personal friend, and that
is ALL
When asked as to the alleged stock deals
with Senator Quay, in which the money of
the Peoples Bank was used, and resulting,
according to the criminal charge, in the
wrecking of the bank, Mr.. Haywood denied
vigorously that he knew anything of tn.
matter.
