SAN DIEGO. July 22.-News from En-
senada this morning reports an unhappy
condition OF affairs in connection with the
Mexican Colonization company. The
trouble has been brewing for the past six
months. when ]. H. Packard succeeded E.
f. Allsopp as general manager of the COM

advice to ex-Manager Allsopp and being an
Englishman Of high birth and extremely
dignified manners, he felt indignant at
what he considered an unceremonious re-
moval from office.
From subsequent DEVELOPMENTS. how
ever, 1t appears that Allsopp made full
use of the short notice given him to turn
over the company's property. 1t is claimed
that he executed lease In behalf of the
company to his private secretary, j. Ken
dell, Of a valuable ranch in the Pinaries
and also gave bill of sale to Kendell for
about 500 head Of cattle. also claimed to be
the property Of the company.
Unfortunately for the success Of these
transactions, the cattle were fenced in on
other property Of the company, and a few
days ago Kendell cut the wires of the
fence and drove the stock to his leased
ranch. This resulted In the young mans ar
rest yesterday, but he was at once released
on bond furnished by Mr.. Allsopp.
A City Hall Wanted
The question of purchasing the Consoli-
dated Bank block for city hall purposes was
considered at = meeting of the ways and
means committee of the council last night.
After years of planning and scheming the
one now under consideration meets with
unanimous approval of the council and In all
probability will be accepted. The only de-
lay is the question of funds.
An offer has been made by BALI Granger to
purchase the city's half lot on Fifth street
for $4,000 and this will be the minimum price
asked when the lot is offered for public
auction. Whatever Is realized from this
sale will be paid on the s25 900 asked for the

into houses, and while being examined en-
deavored to take his life. He yelled at the
top of his voice and, throwing himself
down. beat his head against the floor and
the ratings in the courtroom.
Linnman's mania is for splitting, while
the Chinaman wants to fight everybody he
comes In contact with.

EVACUATION OF CUBA.
Il VIII Not BE Accomplished by the
First of Decemher.

1t is now certain that the complete evac-
uation Of Cuba will be delayed beyond the
period originally fixed by the administra-
ton. viz: December l. This will follow en-
urely without reference to anything that
has occurred in Paris before the peace
commission.
AS a matter Of fact the War Department
has about satisfied itself that the task i'm
posed upon the Spanish authorties-name-
ly. the removal and transportation to a
great distance by sea of about 12O, 600 SOL
diels. sick and well, with their accouter-
n'ents was beyond the ability Of the Span
iSh.
To fully realize the magnitude of this
task 1t is only necessary toIrecall the fact
that the great transatlantic steam lines
crossing the Atlantic from New York, all
combined, in prosperous seasons, transport
only about $4,000 persons in one year-lesS
than half the number that the Spanish off,
cials, with their poor facilities, were eX-
pected to transport in about ten weeks.
For the reason that. the; evacuation of
Cuba will be delayed, there will be delay
in the REIMBURSEMENT OF sovereignty by
the Spaniards over the entire island, which
was set for December l. 1T is hardly deem
ed prudent by the administration officials to
undertake to assume charge of the munich
pal affairs of Havana, for instance SO long
as the city contains astrong garrison of
Spanish troops, and 1t Is fsn that law and
order can be better maintained in such
centerS by allowing them to remain under
Spanish jurisdiction until they are evacu-
ated by the troops and 'reoccupied by Uni
ted States troops. tE
1t Is not to be understood from this that
the American military commission is in
any sense abating the pressure 1t has
brought to bear up the Spanish military
commissioners to secure the evacuation of
the island and the REIMBURSEMENT of Span
| ISL sovereignty. On the contrary, they
have even redoubled their efforts to secure
these objects, but are not disposed to in
sist upoh the performance of Impossible
tasks. and their demands upon the Spanish
contingent will be largely shaped by their
Knowledge that the latter are acting IN
perfectly good faith in their efforts to carry
out the terms of the protocol.

Shutting Down ColIieries.

The various coal companies in the
Wyoming region have commenced sys-
TEN of economy by which number OF
collieries will have their breakers shut
down, while the coal from them will be
run through other breakers. About a
year ago the Empire, of the Lehigh and
WilkeSbarre Company, was abandoned,
and last week the Prospect, of the Le-
high Valley Company, was shut down.
1t is now announced that the Lance
colliery, at Plymouth, and the No. col.
llery, at Sugar Notch, will both be sus-
pended. These collieries have been
working for over thirty years, and the
closing of the breakers will throw out

Merwine that the Monroe county court
got $1,000 for dealing lightly with Irish
men who came before the court for high

On Tuesday Mrs. James Mcclure was
arraigned before Alderman Donohue,
charged by the truant officer with send
ing her ten-year-old son to work in a
coal breaker instead of to school. In
justification, the mother said it hurt her
more to send her boy to work than it
hurt the school board or the legislature
of Pennsylvania, but she had to have the
boys earnings to make living. The
justice said he could not discriminate in
the matter and imposed a fine of s.. so.

Attorney Scarlett on Monday opened
the argument for the prosecution. He
spoke for about two hours and COM
manded the closest attention of the vast
audience. He held that the strikers had
a perfect right to march on the public
highways and that Sheriff Martin and
his deputies had no right to shoot down
and kill the strikers. OF the defense's
many witnesses, he said the jury had to
consider their testimony according to
their credibility and standing.
He claimed that the strikers had com
mitted no act of violence and conse-
quently declined to dispcrse when the
sheriff read his proclamation, even
though the sheriff and his deputies rep
resented the government, and that the
strikers continued their march, notwith-
standing that the sheriff told them: "If
you are determined to 90 to Lattimer
you will have to 90 over my dead body
Mr.. Scarlet went over the testimony
of the defense very carefully and held
that the deputies had no right to stop
the strikers from marching on the high
way, as they carried the American flag
and Furthermore, that the strikers had
been wronged and murdered with ven
gence and malice by the richer class who
formed the deputies. AS he closed he
classed the trial as the greatest in the
history of the world, armed men being
charged with shooting down ruthlessly
and wantonly martyrs of labor on a pub
lie highway for merely making threats
and who had done nothing that could be
claSsed as an act of violence.
John Il. Lenahan, chief counsel for
the defense, followed Mr.. Scarlet. He
made pathetic plea, and in an elo.
quent manner told how the prosecutions
alleged crowd of 1000 peaceable strikers
were marching about the mining ham
lets armed to the teeth with deadly
weapons and who drove men from their
labor Mr.. Lenahan continued speak.
ing until nearly o'clock He reviewed
the case very fully and appealed parti-
cularly to the jurys love of law and
order.
The closing argument for the defense
was made by ex-Attorney General Pal
mer on Tuesday. He said the proceed
ings had developed these three PROPOSE
tions.
There was riotng in and around
Hazleton from the Sd to the 10th of last
September.
sheriff Martin was called to Halle
ton to suppress this roting.
"The mob which marched to Lattimer
was riotous, lawbreaking and disorder
ly."
Mr.. Palmer abused the prosecution
committee of citizens who helped bring
the Lattimer shooting before the grand
jury. He was especially bitter against
Father Aust, of Hazleton, and Rev.
Carl Houser, of ,Freeland, members of
the prosecuting committee.
He accused John NJ. Garman of trying
to make political capital of the corpses
at Lattimer. He sneered at and held
up to ridicule Messrs. Scarlett and Nc
Gahren and District Attorney Martin
by name. He repeated what had been
published in some newspapers concern
ing the trial, and in every possible man
ner openly tried to prejudice the jury
against the prosecution.
District Attorney Martin, seeing that
Judge Woodward remained silent. arose
aud objected to Palmer's language.

Sheriff and His Band of Assassins-More
Trials Are to Follew.
Sheriff Martin and his deputies were
acquitted yesterday by the jury on the
charge of killing Mike Ceslak at Latt-
mer on September 10 last. The verdict
was rendered a few minutes after court
opened. The result OF the trial caused
little or no surprise to the defendants or
prosecutors.
Evidence in plenty had been accumu-
lated since shortly after the opening of
the trial that better jury for the cor
porations interested could not be secured
if the county had been secured for that
purpose. In spite of this known fact,
the prosecution attorneys went on with
the trial to show to the public that the
men accused of murder are guilty and
deserve punishment.
The testimony produced at the trial
has branded every deputy with murder
in the eyes of the general public, and no
amount of perjury or purchased verdlcts
will ever remove this brand.
If sufficient money can be procured to
prosecute the sheriff and his deputies
again, the indictments against them
numbering one for each murdered and
each wounded striker, will be pushed
until justice, if such II thing exists in
Luzerne county, has been meted out to
the accused. 1t is also quite likely that
some of the jurymen will figure promi-
nently in court on serious charges in
the near future
