SAN TlAGO'S MAYOR A. CUBAN.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Nov. 26.-Some
time ago Major McLeary, whom Gen
eral Leonard Wood had appointed
mayor of Santiago, requested to be re.
lieved Of his mayoralty duties and to
return to his military post. This re-
quest was granted yesterday.
In the opinion of General Wood it is
preferable to appoint to the mayoralty
a civilian acceptable to the Cubans,
and he has appointed as Major Nc
Leary's successor Senior Bacardi, an
old resident. He is anxious to give
the mayor as much authority as is com
patible with military jurisdiction. The
new mayor will conform to General
Woods ideas, which are to give the
Cubans every opportunity to show
themselves capable of self-government.
The first official act of Mayor Bacar-
di was to discharge the entire clerical
force in the mayors Office and to en-
ploy Cubans who had served in the
war. He will shortly issue manifes-
to to the effect that he intends to en-
courage the citys development and
give employment as far as conditions
will permit to worthy persons. Gen
eral Wood has high hopes of this first
attempt at civil government under Gu
ban, control

$1,5OO,OOO HOTEL FIRE,

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov 24.-The Bald
win, for almost thirty years one of the
principal landmarks of San Francisco,
is no more A fire which broke out in
the east end of the building shortly
after 3 o'clock, yesterday morning,
supposedly in the property room Of
the Baldwin theater totally destroyed
the immense structure, entailing a
financial loss of nearly 81, 500, 900, be-
sides destroying property that no
amount of money or science can re-
place.
Thee loss of life, so far as reported,
has been miraculously light, but five
deaths having occurred, as far as
known.
The Baldwin theater, the fashions
bic amusement place of this city, was
totally destroyed with the rest of the
building, and the "Secret Service"
company, headed by William Gillette,
now playing an engagement at the
theater, lost all of its paraphernalia
and accouterments. Many of the
members of the company lost most of
their belongings and trunks contain
ing the official papers of the company
were destroyed.
There were upwards of 300 guests in
the hotel when the fire was discovered,
and the scenes which followed beggar
description.

SECRETARY LONGS REPORT
The Navy UnexceI|ed in Point of
Efficiency and Service.
AMERI CAN JACK TAR A WON DER
Victories at Manila and Santiago Are
Unequaled-Result Startled the World
Put to the Supreme Test in War
and Not Found Wanting.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 20. The annual
report of the secretary of the navy i S
much longer than the usual annual re-
port. The first sentence explains this,
as follows:
"For the first time since it's rehabili-
tation, the navy has been put to the
supreme test of war Years Of pa
tient, persistent training and develop
ment have brought it TO point of
high efficiency which resulted in the
unparalleled victories at Manila and
Santiago-victories which have given
the names of our naval commanders
worldwide fame, and added an addi-
tional page to the glorious naval his
tory of our country"
The report describes in rapid order
the steps that were taken to con-
solidate the squadrons and put the
navy in readiness for hostilities.
Sigsbees famous telegram asking
suspension of public opinion in con-
nection with the blowing up of the
Maine is quoted and the secretary says:
''This judicious telegram did much to
secure in the public mind dispassion-
ate view of the disaster"
The story of Dewey's victory at Ma
Mia is told, and of it the secretary
says: "Aside from the mere fact of
having won without the loss of sim
gle life, such brilliant and electrify-
ing victory at the very outset of the
war, with all the confidence which it
infused throughout the country and
into. the personnel of every branch of
the service it removed at once all ap-
prehension for the Pacific coast The
indirect pecuniary advantage to the
United States in the way of saving an
increase of insurance rates and in as
surfing the country freedom from at
tack on that coast is incalculable."
One fact disclosed by the history of
the days before the surrender of San
tiago is that Sampson asked to be rep
resented in any conference held to
arrange the terms of surrender of San
tiago by virtue of the fact that he had
engaged in the joint operations. Shat
ter replied that he should be glad to
have Sampson represented, but the
surrender took place before his repre-
sentative could reach the camp. Ad-
miral SIMPSONS chief of staff did ar
rive before the final articles were
signed, but Shafter declined to permit
him to be one of the signatories.
In view of the prospective increase
in the navy and the necessity of guard
ing the naval stations which will be
needed in the newly acquired territory
of the United States, and especially in
view of the general efficiency displayed
by marine corps, the secretary says
it should be increased to 5000 men,
with the necessary officers,

THE WORLDS GOLD COINAGE.
The Record for 1897 the Largest Ever
Made.

The Record for 1897 the Largest Ever
Made.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 49, I'm his annual
report Mr.. George Il. Roberts, director
of the mint, says:
The most important events of the
fiscal year in the world of government
finance have been the consummation
of the long planned resumption OF
specie payments by Russia in gold, tho
reorganization of the monetary system
of Japan with gold rs the standard,
and the refusal of the government OF
India to cooperate with the govern.
ment of the United States and France
in an effort to establish bimetallism by
international agreement. a.
The gold coinage of the world in
1897 was the largest recorded, amount.
ing in value to $437, TO, 349, against
$l95, $685. in 1896. OF the former
sum SAG, G22, 1914 was recoinage and
Approximately $29l ,O9", las, net addi
ton to the stock of gold coins The
principal coinage was by the United
States, Great Britain, Russia, Ger.
many, Austro- Hungary, France and
Japan. The extraordinary coinage OF
the year is accounted for by the prepa-
rations of Russia, Austro- Hungary and
Japan for their monetary reform.
In the case of Russia, particularly,
gold, which has been accommodating for
years, much of it in bars, was passed
through the minis to prepare it for
circulation. The completion of Rus
s;a's plans of monetary reform and the
opening to the uses of commerce of
her great gold reserve, Systematically
gathered year by year until it is the
greatest single hoard of treasure the
world ever saw, is in itself most
notable event

THIEVES INTHE STATE ROUSE
Money Stolen From the Deposit
Vaults in the Kansas Capitol.
GOVERNOR LEEDY LOSES Sl85.
Private Boxes Used by State Oniclals
Found to Have Been Cleared of Their
Contents-Tiie Losses Reach Over
Thousand Dollars.

TOPEKA, Kan, Nov. 26.-The officers
and employees of the state house We're
much excited yesterday forenoon by the
discovery that the private boxes of the
vault of the state treasurer have been
robbed recently OF sums aggregating
nearly a. thousand dollars, possibly
more. In this vault is a section of
boxes, which for years it has been the
custom of state officers and employees
of the state house to use as safe depos-
itories for money, private papers and
other valuables The boxes are la
beled with the names of their respect
i've owners and each has a key sup
posed to fit his particular box and no
other. By the rules of the treasury,
nobody is permitted to enter the vault
except employees of the office and per-,
sons holding boxes. At night nobody
can enter, the doors being equipped
with time lock.
Four of these boxes were found to
be empty, and the losses, so far as
known, are as follows:
Governor Leedy, $780,
Rev. J. M. Harrington, $500. ..-
James McLallin, $165. "Et1
William Barabee, $3.50
Total, so far as known, 81, 1875.
The happiest woman around the
state house is Hiss Leila McLallin. She
had 81 900 in cash in one of the boxes,
and she withdrew it only four days
ago. tf..
When it was discovered that a whole
sale robbery had been committed, the
treasurer of state, Mr.. Heflebower
and Mr.. Williams, his assistant, be-
gan an investigation and found that
instead of there being but one key for
every box. many of the boxes were
exactly alike and one key was found
that fitted eight different boxes, one
of them being Mr. Hcfiebower's box.
1t was also learned that keys given out
by former treasurers have never been
turned in and on that account the only
real security is the strong doors of the
vault itself and the time locks. 1t is |
agreed by all that since the vault is
secured by the time lock at night, the |
robberies were committed during bust
ness hours, and by somebody who
holds box and discovered by expert
menting that his key fitted other
boxes.
That the robbery was committed by
somebody employed in the state house
nobody doubts, for although others
may have keys given out by former
treasurers only persons known to
have keys have been allowed to enter
the vault during this administration.
Mr.. Hefebower will employ detect
i've to ferret out the robber

BANKER CROSS CONFESSION.
Was Addressed to MIR. Martindalo and
Left with Mrs. Cross.


EMPoRIA, Kan, Nov. "a. Yesterday
afternoon William Martindale, vice
president of the defunct First Nation
al bank, assembled a number of news
paper men and his friends at his resi-.
dence and gave out the following let.
ter, which was read from the original
that seems to be in Mr.. Cross hand
writing:
"EMPoRIA, Kan, May 10, 1898, IL m.
l desire to state the misfortunes of
myself and the bank have been caused
through my faults and errors. l in
herited large debt, which l endeav-
ored to meet by going into other
schemes, which have all been practical
failures and only got me deeper into
the mire. AS to the bank matters,
desire to say that have carefully laid
plans to deceive both the board of
directors, the cashier and employees.
Mr. Martindale will now learn
for the first time how l have
carefully deceived him, principally by
way of substituted paper, of which he
has no knowledge. The reports and
letters written the comptroller have
been by me misrepresented to the
board, they having signed on the last
page and having. sent other letters
than the ones read to them, changing
everyone but the last sheet.
81 have had hard luck story most
of my lifetime, the only pleasant fea-
ture being that of my present wife,
who has been good and true woman.
Mr. Davis, our cashier, has never
made an improper entry on the books
and knows nothing of this whole mis-
cradle business.
IT cath do not fear; it 10 prefera-
BILE to the agony of the past year.
Il know of nothing further to add.
except as to Mr.. Martindale. This is
q terrible thing for him. He has
trusted me without reserve. have
given him bill of sale of all my per-
sonal property. c. S. CROSS"
The envelope was addressed evil
lam Martindale, Emporia, Kan" and
below this was written:
ITO be delivered to William Martin
dale by Mrs. Cross unopened and I'M
mentioned to anyone. This is the one
| mentioned in the one sent through

WASHINGTON, Nov. 90. = Senator
Francis M. Cockrell has arrived in
Washington He said: Personally, ]
am opposed to taking the Philippines.
The policy of expansion about which
we hear so much is not defined very
clearly by its advocates, but it seems
to me that the annexation of islands
thousands of miles from our coast, will
involve very grave questions, and is OF
doubtful wisdom. In my judgment, II
is entirely unnecessary.
