An Appeal for Aid for Porto Rloans.

The ministers of the various denomina-
tions in town have received a circular from
the Citizens Permanent Relief Committee of
Philadelphia, asking them to make an appeal
from the pulpit ON Sunday next for contribu-
tions to the Porto Rico Relief Fund. The
circular recites in strong language the awful
condition of the people that have survived
the ravages of the recent terrible cyclone, in
which thousands met death. Poverty stalks
over the island. The inhabitants are home
less and hungry, with their crops entirely
destroyed. Unless succor is speedily accorded
them the stricken survivors will die by
hundreds As it is now the island is threat
ened with plague and something must be
done to avert it. No doubt the appeal will
be generously received

Artists Wife on Trial on a Charge
Of Attempted Murder.
TRIED TO POISON HER HUSBAND.

it's Assert ed That He Was Saved From
Her Murderous Designs by Friends
Who Took Him From Homc--Believes
in His Wife's Innocence.
Paris, March mime. Charles Bi.
anchin, wife of the famous and popular
scenic artist, who was arrested last No
vrmbcr on the charge of attempting to
poison him, was placed on trial ycstcr-
day. The court room was crowded with
fashionable women, many prominent
people being present The prisoner, who
was elegantly attired, conducted herself
in the most nonchaIant fashion and fatty
denied the accusation.
The evidence showed that, after sqnan-
dering his wifes fortune of 10000
francs NJ. Bianchini. in order to prevent
his being sold out, allowed NJ. Mayer, u
well known threatrical critic to become
his wife's lover. NJ. Mayer took his
meals at the house, and practically lived
there.
When tn" parties were trying to ar
range divorce NJ. Rianchini used to be
found in the morning with the pupils Of
his eyes terribly dilated. his face black,
veilpus blotches Oh his chest and his
limbs quivering. He generally recovered
toward evening.
Six months before Nine. Bianchini's
arrest her husband was suddenly at
tackled by a mysterious malady. which
the physicians diagnosed differently One
Of them declared his belief that the
symptoms were those of atrophne pois-
oning. and thereupon Banchini's friends,
NM. Care and Gnlhard, directors of
the Grand Opera, took it upon them
selves to carry him to Il distant village.
away from his wife. There he recovered
rapidly. When tho police arrested Nine.
Binanchini they found bottles Of afro
phine in the house. She is said to be a
very pretty woman and to have taken
the arrest and all the subsequent pro-
ceedings hppantly.
One pecularity Of the case. which pre-
sents many mysteries, is that M. B-
anchini still declares that he does not
believe his wife guilty.

THE HUNGRY CUBANS.
They Use Every Opportunity to Secure

They Use Every OppOrtu tunfty to secure
Rations Under False Pret eilscs.
Havana, March For the month of
March the various provinces, excepting
the province Of Santiago, have made re-
QUESTION for 100000 rations. Thus,
instead Of diminishing, the requstion
has doubled since Jan. !. This Is due
partly to the fact that the Cubans use
every possible opportunity Of getting ra-
tions under false pretenses and partly
to the fact that the American distribu-
tors are unab bic to discriminate properly
between imposters and the really neccs-
sitous. Indeed, the Americans are al
most in a position Of having to give to
tiOn for the province of Havana for
March is 650.0Oo rations. Major Cen
eral Ludlow has. given the strietest or
ders that the distributors in Havana
shall, SO far as possible, give only to
persons really i'll, utterly unable to work,
or of advanced age, and that applicants
who are proven guilty Of misrepresent-
ing their condition shall he severely pun
ishcd. The supply ship Comal, with a
million ra atoms, will proceed to Matanzas
and Neuvitas to unload them.
The Cuban military assembly held 4
third secret session yesterday afternoon,
a guard being placed around the house
where the meeting was held, and the
public being vigorously excluded from the
precincts. The assumption is that the
mysterious $l2,0OO,000 proposal fathcrc1
by Scnor Fares is still under discussion.
