Democratic County Chairman Mahoney

Wyman in his rulings held that the law re-

DELIVERED A LETTER
But He Did Not Know It Contained n
Fortune

NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-When a swarthy,
soiemn-eyed Italian stepped into the bank
ing house OF Farson, Leach 4 Company, 81
Nassau street, threw package on the coun
ter with "Thata for you" and then started
to walk out there was a chorus of clerks
calling him to come back.
An hour before messenger from another
nnanclal institution started out to deliver
packages of more or less value. He knew
he had one addressed simply "Farson, Leach
4 Company" without the firms street num-
Der, and he was not aware that the envelope
contained securities aggregating $25, ,000
- W hen he stepped into Farson, Leach &
Companys place the package in question
stop payment on the government bonds in
Washington at the subtreasury there, was
the work of few moments; still the securi-
ties were negotiable at any bank in the
United States.
The envelope which the Italian had so
carelessly tossed over to the bank clerks
contained the missing securities. He was
called back and taken into Mr.. Leach's
private office. His story was very simple
He was a chestnut peddler and stood in
Cedar street. He picked up the envelope
from under the feet of the crowd that
thronged past his stand. He saw the name
on it, but as he could not read English he
stopped pedestrian and asked him what the
writing was. The man told him and also
gave him the location of the office. He had
delivered the package. 1t was only a little
way from where his stand was. He did not
want any reward.
The only thing that was puzzling Mr..
Leach Was what to do for the finder. but
substantial recognition of his act will be
made.

CALLED ON M'KINLEY
Chile Makes Request for Little
Arbitration

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-President Nc
Kinley had a number OF distinguished Wis
itors today.
The first to call was the Chilean Minister
to this country, Carlos Morla Nicuna. He
requested the President to give his consent
to the appointment OF Mr.. Buchanan, Min
ister Of the United States to Argentine, to
act as an arbitrator between that country
and Chill, should his services be needed
There is some expectation that the long
standing differences between these two re
publics may be amicably settled. They have
agreed that each country shall appoint a
representative to consider the questions in
volved and if possible, come to an agree
ment. In the event that the two represent
atives cannot come to a satisfactory under
standing, it has been determined to cal
in Minister Buchanan as third man.
The President expressed his pleasure al
the high honor conferred upon the repres
entative from this country and will give hi
formal consent in the event that Mr.. Blu
chanan's services are needed.
The other visitors were Sir Julian Paunce
fote. the British Ambassador, and Lore
Herschel formerly Lord High Chancelo
of England.

which the Kasagi will cruise through the
Mediterranean by easy stages. She is ex

ing the summer of ls99 The beautiful war
ship was given a hearty farewell all the
way down the Delaware by passing craft

The CUBAN ASSEMBLY
HAS NOT YET HELD EVEN ONE
MEETING
THE MILITARY NOT DOMINANT 7
The Probable Policy Will Not Be
Antagonistic to That Favored
at Washington
Associated Press Special Wire

WASHINGTON, Nov 2.-Presdent Ma
SO of the Cuban provisional government
has cabled from Santa Cruz del sur tc
Senior Quesada, secretary OF the Cuban del
egatlon here, saying:
Assembly has not yet met, owing to the
absence OF quorum.
This was called out by an inquiry by Senor
Quesada regarding reports coming by way
OF Santiago representing the Cuba assem-
bly, as in session at Santa Cruz del Sur and
engaged in discussing important question
relating to the future Of the island, the dis
armament of the Cuban army and the eN-
tent of the cooperation between the former
insurgent forces and the United States au-
thorities. 1t has been stated that the as
Bembly organized by choosing Gen. Garcia
as presiding officer, thus indicating that the
military element under Garcia would DOM
mate the assembly.
There are evidences that President Me
Kinley and his cabinet have assurances that
the action OF the Cuban provisional gov
ernment will not be antagonistic to the
policy at Washington, but rather in sym
pathy with the execution of that policy. Sc
nor Quesada is satisfied that this will be
the course of the Cuban assembly. Mr.
Quesada said
1T is only the first step toward regular
and constitutional form of government, and
it will give way later to an assembly truly
representative OF all the people OF Cuba.
For the present Maso has called together this
provisional body, which is necessarily crude,
because of the unsettled condition of al
fairs in Cuba. 1t is not, however, military
assembly, only eight or ten out of a mem
bership of fortveight being from the mil
itary ranks. The others are from civil life
doctors, lawyers and plantcrs-representin
the best elements in the community. This
assembly will not form a constitution, but
will provide for constitutional convention,
which will take up the important work of
framing constitution and establishing a
permanent government for the island.''

Cuban Customs

NEW YORK, Nov. "A dispatch to the
Herald from Santiago de Cuba says:
Walter A. Donaldson, Collector of Gus
TOMS has filed an exhaustive report OF the
organization, conducting and results ot the
customs i'll the province OF Santiago, win
recommendations for the betterment OF lhe
service. The report embraces the state
ment Of the condition of affairs in Santiago,
Guantanamo and Baracoa, for September,
with the aggregate figures for October in
Santiago, Guantanamo and ManZanliil;
Gibara is not reported, but Colonel Hood
reports satisfactory progress there.
The organization at present shows the EN-
ployment of forty men in Santiago, consist
ing of the Collector, two deputies and clerks,
guards and boatmen. In Guantanamo there
are ten men, whose salaries aggregate So0Oo
The number of men employed at other
places is not reported.
The report shows receipts from all sources
of customs in October to be $44227 an in
crease of more than $4,000 over last year, in
Santiago alone despite the greatly reduced
tariff charges. To this add $l01 1872 brough,
over from August and it shows a great in
crease in customs under the present system
though with a reduced tariff.
1t is shown by the figures for October that
the receipts for Santiago in round numbers
are SCI 900, for Guantanamo $500, for Man
zanillo $1,000, a total of s69.G00.
Mr. Donaldson recommends Improvement
in the service at all ports, especially al
Guantanamo. Other recommendations are
The free admission of cattle and fresh
meats, the present price being practically
prohibitive; a reduction of 10 cents to
cents per gallon on petroleum; harbor i'm
provement tax in Santiago, to be made ap
picable to the support and re-establish
ment of the Board of Harbor Improve
ments, with an army engineer and the us,
of customs stamps, by which it is estimate,
there would be an additional income o
100000 annually.
The recommendations will probably b
favorably received by General Wood.
