No MINES IN HAVANA HARBoR.-Iu
an interview in Madrid yesterday Gen.
Weyler said
"You may cable, using my name
with my full authority and desire, that
I deny most emphatically there being
any foundation whatever for the re.
ports published in the American press
that l placed any mines or torpedoes in
the harbor of Havana. Nor did |
withdraw any papers relating to such
plans, none existing. 1t is totally alb
surd that any one knowing the Spanish
military organization should give credit
to such a foolish idea being possible.
My defensive preparations were cor
fined to mounting large calibre artillery
in such manner as seemed to me fully
to protect the harbor. Any other
version of the mines, and so forth, is a
calumuy too foolish for people to be-
lieye.n

ACCORDING to the new arrangement
for the removal of the garbage OF
Washington, what of it that cannot be
reduced there, will be carried down the
Potomac, below this city. If it be, it
must skirt the fats of the opposite
shore and be conveyed in air tight
scows, as Alexandria has suffered too
much in the past from such transporta-
ton to submit to the nuisance again
Washington, the halfof whose expenses
paid by the government, is rich enough
to pay for the reduction of its garbage,
without subjecting this city constantly
to the disgusting and noXious eiiiuvia
therefrom.

The TARIFF tax on wool is so high
that the wooden hat makers of Read
ing, Pennsylvania, intend to stop that
industry and start that of cheap fur hat
making, as some of the material used
IN the manufacture of such hats is free

ONE OF the last public acts of the
