order from the United States military
authorities in Havana directing the
authorities Of the Santiago military de-
partment not to expend any of the Gus

of the governor general. and the order

given to the local press for publication
yesterday. though received here last
Thursday.
FL Cubano. in commenting upon the
instructions Of the governor general,
says:
THE feeling is prevalent that the
only course now Is to retire to the
mountains
This is, Of course, an exaggeration,
although the fact is that there are peo-

showing how far the province has drift

that the customs were not to be freely

FIGHT TO BE BITTER
THE BALLOTING FOR A SENATOR
BEGINS TODAY IN WEST
VIRGINIA
FACTIONS EVENLY MATCHED
Republicans Have a Majority of One
on Joint Ballot Both Sides
Threaten to Unseat Opponents,
and Such Action May BE Followed
Explains Status in Pennsylvania.

CHARLESTON, W. Va, Jan. o.
Balloting for United States senator
begins in the legislature tomorrow.
As the Republicans have a majority
of only one on joint ballot, and that
one is In dispute, the present struggle
has become a state edition Of the
Hayes-Tilden contest. The factional
fighting was ended when John T. Nc
gTaw last Wednesday night received
the Democratic caucus nomination,
and on the following night n. E Scott
was made the Republican nominee.
Since then both parties have been
working for partisan advantage in the
settlement of contested seats. The
Republicans are fighting to hold their
own and have a majority of one, since
two of the Republicans have been un-
seated in the house. AS the Demo-
cratic majority in the house threatens
to unseat others, the Republican ma
Jortty in the senate has pending three
resolutions for contests in the upper
house. Before the order for balloting
is reached tomorrow it Is probable
there will be action in both branches
for the purpose of retaliation. The bal
loting may be continued from day to
day until one of the sides gets enough
of the retaliation programme.

clever ruse of E. Harris, sergeant Of

scheme was to get her back into the

with deliberate fraud. For instance, In
the Beeston Pneumatic Tire company,
the profit Of $447. 900 was divided among
the chairman, one director, and Mr..
Hooley. Every trace of this transac-
ton was removed from Hooley's books,
and checks and counterfoils were de-
stroyed. The official receiver reports
that the transaction was fraudulent
and that Hooley was a party to it. Dur
Ing the twelve months previous to his
bankruptcy his personal expenditure
amounted to So. 900 and his charitable
donations to s195, 600. During this
period his business transactions show
ed a loss OF S, ,0c0, 900.
1t Is obvious that sensational prose-
cudon must follow and probably not
against Hooley alone. Another in
evitable and most welcome result will
be the immediate strengthening Of the
law relating to the formation of public
companies

HENRY IRVING's PLANS.

VIII Present Sardou's ''Robespferre''
I'm London With Ellen Terry.
LONDON, Jan. 22.-Irving has re-
turned to London from Bournemouth.
Amid the rumors and contradictions
regarding his plans and the Lyceum
theater management, it is next to i'm
possible to get at all the facts. Sir
Henry and Miss Terry, assuming them
capable Of such an attempt, could not
have secured a more effective adver-
tisement. Nothing short of a possible
statement by the actor would be ac-
eepted In London as final concerning
the real situation.
Today Sir Henry promises, over his
own signature, to present Sardou's
"Robespierre," with Miss Ellen Terry,
at the Lyceum in April, and he is still
talking of an American trip after the
Lyceum engagement, though nothing
is said of Miss Terry in connection
with that.
His announcement is not inconsistent
with Miss Terry's earlier statement to
the public that she was organizing a
company to play in the provinces. That
was her original idea. but the scheme
went on the assumption that Sir Hem
RVS convaiescence would be prolonged
and that he could not play next spring
There had been some differences be-
tween them regarding the choice OF
plays, Miss Terry insisting that Irv-
ing's selection was not always fair to
herself. But the Sardou play, written
with an eye to its production in Eng
lish by Irving and Terry, will suit her
as well as any. 1t is understood that
no other disagreements whatever have

Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, was the
next speaker. Mr. Gompers severely
criticised the inconsistency of the Unit
ed States government for going to war
to free the Cubans and denying the
same measure of freedom and liberty
to the Filipinos. He said that the ma
tion had never before been called upon
to hide tyranny. He said 1t was not
settled that the Filipinos would not re-
sist the army of the United States. He
said we could not acquire colonies and
at the same time maintain our free IN

W. Bourke Cochran, the next speak
er, said: This heresy of Imperialism
sweeping over the country Is threaten
ing the stability Of our institutions and
is political infamy. This country OF
ours, the home of alien races, we are
now raising aloft IN protest against a
policy which if successful would OBJ
scure the horizon of the whole human
race. The imperialists tell you that
trade follows the flag, when, in fact,
every American knows that the very
opposite is the case 1t is the flag
that follows trade. Is it part of the
principles of our free and Independent
government to proceed to Victimize
people by first shooting and then tyran-
nizing them? We shudder from such
a destiny We are told that 1t Is our
destiny to expand. This child of des-
tiny is new creation. In the old world
he is known as human deDravity. No
nation, particularly the American ma
ton, can have a citizen soldier in

In favor of expansion if it is meant in
