PLAN OF THE CEREMONIES

Special CableGram From a STAFF Correspondent.
HAVANA. December 3f.-This, the last
day of Spanish sovereignty, passes without
incident. The bearing of Captain General
Castellanos and other Spanish officials is
dignifed, and their delicate task has been
accomplished in creditable manner.
Tonight the last of the Spanish troops
will be on transports, making $1,000 that
have been embarked since the signing of
the protocol. Sixteen thousand remain in
Matanzas province and 2S000 in Santa
Clara.
TomOrrow's ceremonies will be formal,
but simple. The American and Spanish
evacuation commissioners will meet at
noon in the palace and adjourn their ses-
sions. Gen. Brooke and staff will be pres
ent, and with the adjournment of the two
commissions he viii become supreme mil
itary commander and represent American
authority in Cuba.
Though the American troops are now oc-
cupying all the forts in the city, except
two, the American flags will not go up un-
til cannons. firing salutes. will announce
the change of sovereignty. The last Span
ish flag to come down will be that on Moro
Castle.
The Cubans today are quiet The feeling
disappointment is keen. Gems. Brooke and
Ludlow have been conciliatory. The good
impression produced by Gen. LudIows let
ter grows. The chief influence however,
in reconcihng the CUbans has been the ad-
dress of their junta patriotica.
Menocal Cardenas and other insurgent
generals. whose forces are encamped
around the city, are positive that no dis
turbanCe will occur. Their followers are
paolhed by the promise of a celebration in
February. on the fourth anniversary of the
date OF the beginning of the revolution at
which Gomez will be present, and in which
The American authorities will participate
Ihe degree to which the United States
roops Will be welcomed in their march
through Havana is problem, but their re-
ception will not be as enthusiastic as IT
would have been if the Cuban festivals

THE VERMONT SENATORSHIP.
What Judge Pronty Says About the
Succession to Mr.. Morrill,.

Judge ProIty of Vermont, a member Of
the interstate commerce commission, was
questioned by Star reporter today con-
cerning the filling of the senatorial seat
made vacant by the death of the venerable
Senator Morrill,. Said Judge Prouty:
Vermont is divided by the Green noun
tains into the east side and the west side
By an unwritten law cne senator Is chosen
from the east and the other from the Wes.
Senator Morrill, came from the east side
ard his successor will be selected flom that
district.
For more than dozen years Gen. Grout
the present representative from that dis
trlct, and ex-Gov. William P. Dillingham;
have been candidates for this place Near
ly every prominent man in the state is
pledged to the support of one or the other
OF these candidates 1t is probable that the
governor will appoint one or the other of
these persons but / do not think any one
can safely predict which one will receive
the appointment, nor do 1 think tha. it can
be said that the appointment of one would
be more popular than the appointment of
the other.

Grout and ex-Gov. Dillingham; are men of
good ability and highly esteemed in Yer

This appointment is really not of much
Significance. The appontee will hold until
the EeXt legislature convenes, one year
from next October. That legislature is
elected by the people one year from next
September, and the real contest will come
In the election of it's members.
Tt has been suggested that Gov. Smith
might appoint some man who would not be
a candidate for an election, thereby leaving
the field perfectly free to these two candi-
dates. but in that event I have not the
slightest Idea who the appointee would be-

ADAMS POISONING CASE
No Arrests Yet Made by the New York
Police.
Believed Thnt Police Are on Hot Trnu
for Perpetrator Of the
Deed.

NEW YORK, December 31.-The polica
are still vigorously working to find out who
sent the poison to Harry Cornish, and so
caused the death of Mrs Kate J. Adams on
wednesday last. Although three DAYS have
elapsed since Mrs. Adams died, no arrests
nave been made, and Chief of Detectives
McCiuskey SAID today that he had nothing
TO divulge. There is an impression, how
ever that before the day is over the police
Will have secured either a solution of the
mystery, or will have made an arrest that
will show in what direction their suspicions
lie.
So far as the actions or statements of
the police are concerned, no one at present
mas been connected with the crime, nor has
any motive been adduced that would jus
Try an attempt upon Mr.. Cornish's life
capt McCIuskey said that later in the day
ne might rave some statement to give out.
Whether he is awaiting word from the DO
nee IN other cities where searching in
quirleS have been set on foot to trace the
history OF matchbox holders similar to that
Nblch accompanied the bromo-Seltzer bot
tie, or WHEELER ne is awaiting developments
expected to ensue in this city, is unknown.
Regarding statement published in a
morning paper that former member of
the knickerbocker Athletic Club was under
suspicion md would be arrested today
Capt. McCluskey said Mr.. Cornish had inn
Phcated no member, past or present of the
hnlckerbocker club There were new de-
Velopments in the case, Capt McCluskey
admitted, but he could not discuss them at
present Tine arrest of any past or present
member of the knickerbocker Athletic Club
was not contemplated.
In answer 20 the question if he had come
TO any conclusion whether a man or a wo-
man wrote the address on the wrapper%f
the bottle, McCluskey said posTe<eIy he
thought it was a man.

Current Gossip Respecting Its Recent
Advance in Price.

Inc recent advance in the market quota
uons of the stock of the Metropolitan
Street Railroad Company is attributable
in the current gossip of the street, to sew
eral causes. which have been mentioned in
The Star. One of these was possible ex-
pansion of the present lines, and it was
suggested that advantage might be taken
of the clause in the charter of the Wash
ington and Great Falls Railway Company
which permits that company to buy any
connecting or intersecting railroad.
In this way the Metropolitan road, which
is held to be a connecting road within the
meaning of the act, might be purchased by
the Great Falls Company.
1t now seems that this particular clause
has been examined with scme care, and the
conclusion has been reached by some that
IT would not prove to be satisfactory in
bringing about consolidation of street
railroads.
The exact source of weakness, which is
alleged TO exist in the law, is not pointed
out, but 1t is thought the prohibitory sec
ton in the charter of the company might
be looked upon as having that effect
However, the wording of the two sections
is given as likely to be of interest at this
time.
In the law approved June 3, 1896. amend
ing an act to incorporate the Washington
and Great Falls Electric Railway COMPANY
occurs the following clause:
max SAID washington and Great Falls
Electric Railway Company being authorized
thereto by vote of the majority of its
stockholders of record, may contract with
any street railway company in the state of
Maryland Or the District of Columbia own
ing or operating a connecting or intersect-
ing line for the joint management, lease or
pure of such line or lines and operate
the same in connection and as an extension
with its present line, and in case of such
contract may provide the means necessary
by an increase of its capital stock not to
exceed the actual consideration paid or the
actual cost of the necessary construction,
completion, equipment and maintenance
thereof
The law further gives authority to issue
bonds secured by a deed of trust on all the
property and franchises of the company.
In the act Incorporating the road approx
ed July %. 1892, is the following clause:
Provided. That it shall be unlawful for
the company hereby Incorporated to con-
solidate with any other railroad company
now in existence or which may hereafter
be chartered. whose route shall be substan-
TALLY the same as the route herein pro-
vided for. and any such consolidation shall
of itself operate as a forfeiture of this
charter"

DISASTER AT HANkOW
Half Street of Houses Tumble Into the
River
Estimated That 1000 or More People
Were DrOwned-News From
the Orient.

VICTORIA, B. c.. December 31.-The
steamers Victoria and Yamaguchi Maru
have arrived with news from the Orient to
December 10. Another serious calamity,
writes the Hankow correspondent of the
North China Daily News, files of which
were received by the steamers, has befallen
the unfortunate town of Hankow. One
thousand more of the inhabitants have
met death by drowning. About noon on
December half street of houses ex-
tended along the edge of the river Han sud-
denly broke away and tumbed into the
water on the top of all the boats there.
Houses and boats, with all the people in
them, disappeared in a moment. About
one hundred buildings and the same num-
Der Of boats are gone.
The Japan Gazette says: "Since the at
tack on the Russian troops at, Andijan,
some time back, discomfort and dissatisfac
ton have been rife throughout the prov
ince. This feeling has assumed such pro-
portions that the Russian authorities have
already strengthened their garrison by
quintupling them. They have, moreover,
occupied the larger villages in force and
superseded the civil by military admins
tration. The causes of this state of things
are not far TO seek. and, in fact, may be
traced to the barbarous rigor with which
the late rising has been suppressed"
The American, q Manila paper, says the
revenue cutter McCulloch, after encircling
Dewey's fleet, while bands played and tars
cheered has started for home to join the
Bering sea patrol fleet.
News comes of more murders of mission
aries. The Japan Herald says an English
missionary has been murdered by natives
and soldiers at Tsing-Ping. ninety miles
east of .Kueiyang. A French missionary
has been burned to death at Swatow ard
German missionary has also been mortally
injured in Shartung. The murder of an
American missionary, Mrs. Butterfield, in
central China is reported In late Hong

Subsistence of Labor in India.

United States Consul Patterson at CAL
cutta has supplied to the bureau of foreign
commerce of the State Department some
statistics relative to the cost and means
of subsistence of laborers in India that ex-
hibit in striking manner the economy
practiced by the Indians. His tables show
mat the highest wages paid for skilled
labor is 81 90 per month for jute mill hands.
"hlie sl-so Is the monthly wage of ablebodied
agricultural laborers. The consul saws thar
IN northwestern India wages are even much
lower than the figures quoted. The labor
ers live altogether on grain, using about
one ana one-haf pounds per day each,
costing on an average from two and one,
halt to three cents. Yet with this food
they do the hardest kind of manual labor
and keep their muscles well developed their
endurance in carrying heavy loads being re-
markable- A majority of the laborers not
only exist on these small wages, but man
age 10 keep families and save money.
