CUSTOMS RECEIPTS
In Santiago Province Show Large In
crease With Lower Tariff


New York, Nov "A dispatch to the
Herald from Santiago de Cuba says:
Walter A. Donaldson, collector of Gus
toms has fled an exhaustive report of
the organization, conduct and results of
the customs in the province of Santiago,
with recommendations for the better
ment of the service. The report embra-
ces the statement of the condition of
affairs in Santiago, Guantanamo and
Baracoa for September, with the aggre-
gate figures for October in Santiago,
Guantanamo and Manzanillo. Gibara is
not reported, but Col. Hood reports
satisfactory progress there.
The organization at present shows the
employment of 40 men in Santiago, con-
sisting Of the collector, two deputies and
clerks, guards and bOatmen. In Guam
tanamo, there are ten men, whose sal
aries aggregate $4,000. In Baracoa
there are seven employees, with salaries
aggregating SO, 200. The number of men
employed in ManzanilIO and Gibara are
not reported.
sources from customs in October $44, ,227,
an increase of more than $4,000 over
last year in Santiago alone, despite the
greatly reduced tariff charges To this
add S107, 1872, brought over from August
and it shows a great increase in Gus
toms under the present system, though
with a reduced tariff.
It is shown by the figures for October
that the receipts for Santiago in round
numbers are $61, 600; for Guantanamo
S5, 300; for Manzanillo SO, 500, a total of
500 500.
Mr.. Donaldson recommends improve
Ynents of the service at all ports, eSpec-
tally at Guantanamo, such as suitable
buildings, a revenue cutter and steam
launch. Other recommendations are
that there be an oath of office for all
employees; the free admission of cattle
and fresh meats; the present price be-
ing practically prohibitive; reduction
of 10 cents to cents per gallon on pc
troleum; a harbor improvement tax in
Santiago to be made applicable to the
board of harbor improvements with an
army engineer and the use of customs
stamps, by which it is estimated there
would be an additional income of $780,
900 annually.
The recommendations will probably
be favorably received by Gen. Wood.
Quartermasters and cOmmiSSarieS as
signed to the different districts of the
province by the heads of those depart
ments in Washington to supply the
troops under command of the governor
of the province, it was decided by Gen.

authority Gen. Wood was informed
that at Cibara and Manzanillo vOlun-
teer captains and quartermasters had
landed to take charge of the Holguin
and ManzaniIIo districts, garrisoned by
CoIonels Petit and Hood. without re-
porting here, evidently acting under or
ders from their respective departments.
Gen. Wood instructed Adjutant General
Bacon to order ColOnelS Petit and
Hood to make their acquisitions for
supplies to department headquarters,
ignoring the quartermasters at towns.

STANLEY Ar SEDAN.
Republicans Say He Will Get $50
Majority in Ohautauaua County.

Sedan. Nov. 2.-Chautauqua county
Republicans boast that their bailiwiclS
has never been carried by the Populists
and further, proudly proclaim the fact
that all silver Republicans except one
have returned to their former faith and
now the party is united and working
harmoniOusly.
This is the one county of nine composing
the Third congressional district which
sent a Republican to the legislature
two years ago in the person of John
ShOuSe.
The Republicans say the Populists are
indignant because Senator w. A. Har-
ris did not fill his appointment in con,
junction with Ex-Governor IeWellinS
here last Saturday.
This county will give Kirkpatrick the
largest majority of any county in the
district, but it is the opinion of Repub-
Hcans that are closely watching the sit
uation, that unless a Republican land
slide should take place, Kirkpatrick will
be defeated.
Mr.. Shouse has retired from politics
and J. K. TullOs, business man, is
the Republican nominee for representa-
tive.
w. E. Stanley and r. B. WeIch ar
rived here at noon Tuesday and were
of Republicans, among them being H.
T. Sadler, formerly of Emporia, a
Democrat who is supporting the Re-
publican nominees.
The hall where Mr.. Stanley and Mr..
Welch spoke was overf1owing. Sam
Fitzpatrick, an influential young Re-
publican looked after the visitors.
This county it is believed will give
Stanley 250 majority, a gain over 1896.

FRANCE AT IT TOO.
Men are Working Day and Night on
Her Fortiications.

London, Nov. 2.-The war office has
issued a semi official notification in
which it says it does not object to the
papers announcing military and naval
preparations in general terms, but
points out that it would be ''unpatriotic
to publish specific details that might be
useful to a possible foe''
There is no noticeable cessation in
England's preparations, and the officials
are confident of the cOuntry's ability
to meet all emergencies. There are
large shipments of guns. shells and war
stores to Malta and Gibraltar
The dispatches from France announce
equal activity at Toulon, Brest, Mar
seilles and elsewhere

Chronicle says:
France is making great preparations

daily and men are strengthening the

The Populists Count on Carrying the

Pittsburg, Kan, Nov. 2-This county
Crawford is situated in the heart of the
mining district of the state. Two years

It is not claimed by either party that it
will cast as many votes at the election
this year as it did two years ago. Last

Both candidates for auditor are residents
of this county and their friends are using

The situation in regard to the local

candidates on the Populist ticket are the

the Democratic ticket has been nomina ted

CoffeyvilIe, Nov. 2.-This city was bu-
sy Tuesday evening with a Presbyterian
revival, a show at the opera house and
a Republican meeting, the attraction at
the latter being w. E. Stanley and r.
B. Welch. Speaking in the open air to
the overflow meeting at Parsons affect

hausted upon returning here from Sc
dan. An hours sleep refreshed him,
and the local Republicans thronged the
hotel for two hours, the time intervening
before the meeting.
The rally was held in Music hail. in a
new building, into which an immense
crowd found it's way. There was
scarcely breathing space in the hall.
Mr.. Welch made the principal speech,
Mr.. Stanley closing by a short address
which was vociferousIy cheered by the
large crowd.
Webb NcNall was advertised to speak
here Tuesday night but the Populist
managers lighted UP their hall in vain

BETS AT WICHITA
On the Restoration of Police Commits
sioners by Stanley.

Wichita, Nov. 2.-The resubmission-
lists at the pool rooms here have been
offering to bet all kinds of money that
Stanley, if elected governor, will i'm
mediateIy restore the police commits
sioners in Wichita. Later they changed
the wager to the effect that the COM
missioners will be restored in five
months.
Today these bets were hunted down
by local Republicans, but had disap-
peared. Some of the conservative men
who are not patrons of pool rooms
have placed money, $1,000 it is said, in
a local bank, to take all bets on the
subject of restoring commissioners.
1t is said that some of the Republi-
cans will soon post bets, any amount,
that Stanley will not, if elected, appoint
police commissioners.
This means that some of the candi-
dates friends are ready to back him
in favor of home rule as against state
government in cities of the first class,
by police commissioners.

Gov. LEEDY
TO MINERS.
Addresses Them At Pittsburg,
Kansas, Last Night.
G.. G. Clemens Also Makes a
Speech.
THE LOCAL SITUATION
Sized Up From the Standpoint
of FusiOnists.
Reasons Given For Success OF
Fusion Ticket.

Pittsburg, Nov. 2.-Governor Leedy
came here last night after speaking to
an afternoon meeting. He went to the
hotel and retired early and got a good
nights rest. He spent yesterday re-
ceiving callers and going about the
town. In the evening he spoke at the
opera house. The governor left this
morning for Fort Scott where he speaks
tonight.
Pror to the meeting a band from
Chickope which is composed Of miners
paraded the streets.
The opera, house was well filled, many
standing in the back of the house, and
the people greeted the governor and his
party with applause as he entered.
When introduced the governor began by
saying:
1.-The attorney general will be here IN
a few nights and will speak to you ana
will tell you in detail as to his action IN
regard to the enforcement OF the scrip
and screen laws, so won't take up your
time in the discussion OF this question
except to say that believe that the OF
ficers that enforced the scrip and screen,
stock yards, school book and the IN
surance laws did so in the belet that
they were acting for the best interests
of the people of this state. And so long
as have a dollar of your money under
my control I shall spend it to uphold
these officers in their efforts.
The speaker then turned to the insur-
ance fight and in speaking of Webb Nc
Nall said:
''They say he is the homeliest man
in the state of Kansas. 1 think one of
the best defenSes against the caIumny
that has been hurled against him was
that when someone said he was a two
faced man Joe Waters said that can't
be for if he had another face he would
wear it in place of the one he does
Well. McNan may be homely but he's
a good insurance commissioner, and
while I'm governor he will be commits
sioner." (CheerS and cries that's
right.'O
The governor then explained the stand
of the Populist party on the railroad
question
c. G. Clemens was next introduced.
Mr.. Clemens began his speech by
telling several good stories He devoted
his time to state issues Among other
things he said: L was born into the
Republican party. My grandfathe was
a Shareholder and he brought his slaves
up to Ohio and freed them; he taught
my father to be crank and my father
taught the trade to me and I have
worked at it quite a while since I have
grown up and must say 1 rather like
it.
''I am glad that this campaign is not
much longer. If it were the affidavit
fiend would have all the charitable in
stitutions one immense graveyard
Mr.. Clemens then took up the var
iOuS state issues and commented on the
action of McNau and Boyle. In speak
ner he said that if Altgeld or Waite had
taken the same action he would have
been denounced by the press as lawIess.
Mr.. Clemens then talked on the
labor question. His speech commanded
the closest attention of the audience.

candidate hastened to the platform and
was instantly lost in the crowd shaking
hands. The train is scheduled to stcn
but short time, and the conductor
started to raise his hand to signal the
engineer to go ahead. One of the con-
ductor's friends yelled at him and he
turned around, to find a dozen people
rushing and crowding around him to
shake hands. The helpless conductor
did not realize for several minutes that
he was the victim of a clever ruse. and
he had no opportunity to get away un-
til Mr.. Stanley had grasped the hands
of every individual in the crowd. The
candidate was not aware of the joke on
the conductor until after the train had
pulled out amidst cheer upon cheer for
