NO MASS MEETING HELD.

Counsels of Messrs. Peaker and Stew
art Prevailed Among the Colored
People.
The colored citizens of this city were
to have held mass meeting in Zion
A. NJ e. church last night to make
formal protest against what they con-
slider the apathy of the government
concerning the murder of a colored
postmaster in the south recently. But
owing to the fact that some of the
leading men among the colored people
of the city considered it inadvisable
in the present state of affairs which
confronts the government to enter any
protest against the previous attitude
of the government in relation to other
matters. The prime movers in calling
the meeting were W. S. Miller and Mr..
Ferris, both young colored men, the
latter at present divinity student at
Harvard. At the head of those who
opposed holding the meeting were ex-
Councilman J. P. Peaker, president of
the State Sumner league, and Coun-
Gilman J. W. Stewart. Mr.. Peaker last
night, when asked why the meeting
was not held, said: There has really
been no meeting called, although it has
been suggested that one be held. You
may say for me as president of the
Sumner league that / do not think it
advisable at present to antagonize in
any way the government"
1t was learned last night that COM
mittee in favor of holding the meeting
had called upon the trustees of Zion A.
M. E. church and requested that they
be allowed to hold the meeting in that
church, but that the trustees had been
already seen by those opposing the
holding of the meeting and refused to
allow the church to be used for that
purpose. Mr.. Peaker said last night:
"You may be sure that no mass meet
ing for that purpose will be held in any
of the churches of the city, that is
churches where they would reach the
people they desire to reach" evidently
by this referring to churches of color
ed congregations.

THE LATE MRS. AMBROSE E..
REARDST ,Fy

Mrs Mary Ambrose Beardsley, who
died at the New Haven hospital Sun
day, was, as stated yesterday, the wild
ow of the late DR.. Ambrose Beardsley
of Derby, pioneer man intimately as
ISOLATED with the early history of the
town. Mrs. Beardsley was seventy-six
years of age and leaves one son, Cap
tain A. e. Beardsley. The remains will
be taken to Derby for interment in Oak
Cliff cemetery to-day.
Mrs. Beardsley was born in Seymour,
then part of the town of Derby. She
was married to DR.. Beardsley in 1887
and lived in the town from that time
until about eleven years ago, when she
accompanied her son to New Haven and
made her home with him in this city.
The memory of Mrs. Beardsley, held
by the older residents, are all Of the
deepest respect. She was woman
with a large heart, and until her re-
verses, brought about by the civil war,
her purse always had loose strings and
many needy person received aid from
her. During the war she was one of
those women who, although obliged to
remain at home, did much to help in
the winning of the victory by the Union.
From the first rumor of war she was all
| enthusiasm Many a poor soldier had
| her to thank for some delicacy from
| the north while he was undergoing the
| hardships for his country.
| Mrs. Beardsley was a leading spirit
| in the Soldiers Aaid society in Derby
| during the war and was at the head of
| the sanitary fair, which was held in
| tent near the NJ E. church. This rails
| ed a considerable sum, by which many
| comforts Were purchased and sent to
| the suffering soldiers. Every wearer
of the northern uniform was an object
of her love, but especially was she in
| terested in the Twentieth regiment
| from Connecticut. This was the regi-
ment of Colonel William B. Wooster
! who boarded with her, and also the one
in which her son, Captain Beardsley
was enlisted. 1t was afterward that of
! Captain S. e. Chaffee.
Mrs. Beardsley's charity was not
| confined to war time alone, but extend

ability allowed. She was leader of

FEAR COMPETITION.
Cubans Do Not Want American
Control for Business Reasons.
Gen. GOMEZ FAvORS INDEPENDENCE.
He Urges the Spanish Element to Unite
with the Natives TO Prevent American
Aggression- Business Men Jeal-
Gus of Our Enterprise.

Havana, Sept 16.-The predominant
feature of the situation is the feverish
and widespread agitation of the
Cubans in favor of the absolute indie.
pendence of the island at all costs
Manifestoes are being circulated in.
wiling the cooperation of Spanish
residents and merchants to this end
and pointing out that either annexa
ton or an American protectorate
would mean death to all trade with
Spain in a couple of years.
Gen. Maxine Gomez, who only a
fortnight ago gave expression to ex-
tremely moderate views, counseling
harmony and patience, now expresses
himself as strongly in favor of abso-
lutte independence or nothing. He
says the Spanish element cannot afford
to delay uniting with the Cubans, and
"a necessary basis for the establish
ment of conditions that will forbid
and prevent the United States grab
bling and taking easy advantage of the
treasure both Spaniards and Cubans
have fought for at au expense of rivers
of blood on each side"
Gen. Gomez says that those who
fear independence belong to the same
family of cowardly ours who fled from
Havana at the first rumor of lombard
mcnt." These, he declares, are, how
ever, minority; and 20 quote him fur
Their, almost the entire Spanish popu-
lation remains, protecting their homes
and defying the dangers of war and
will now remain to unite their efforts
with those of the Cuban party, work.
ing together with the Cubans for the
development of the island and the re-
turn of prosperity"
One reason why many Spaniards
who at first favored annexation have.
now changed their opinion is that
they fear the competition of American
rivals as storekeepers, hotel managers
and restaurant keepers. They are
afraid that the Americans, instead of
coming to buy out their establishments
and stocks at fabulous prices, based
upon the old Spanish duties, will open
shops next door, import goods at the
duties under the new regime, ruin
their business and reduce them TO pow
erty.
Exactly the same spirit prevails
among the planters, especially the
smaller ones who had hoped to sell at
good prices the old French and Bel
gian machinery, for which they paid
dearly, and imported under excessive
duties. They realize that the Ameri-
can machinery, much cheaper and
paying practically no duties, will
enable Americans to establish large
central market, close theirs and push
them to the wall.
All this amounts practically to e
silent admission of Cuba's inability TO
offer, if left to herself the guarantees
of stability that would induce foreign
capital to come here to develop the
islands resources. The deductions
seem to be this; With Cuba independ-
emit, no foreign capital and no compe-
tition. With Cuba under American
rule, a competition against which the
Cubans would not have the energy or
the power 10 succeed.
