The LAW is SUSPENDED
Americans Not Subject to In
communicate Laws.
JUDGE ORTIZ OBJECTED
Two United States Citizens Were Not
Permitted to See Friends or At
torneys-A Serious Strike on
the United Railroads.

Havana, April 9.-Secretary of JUS
tice Lanuz will probably not comply
with the request of Judge Ortiz of the
Guadalupe district in reference to
General Ludlow, the military governor,
for interfering to prevent DR.. Jolliffe
and Mr.. Barton, Americans, being kept
incommunicado, as provided by the
Spanish law.
If the matter is brought to an issue,
the question will be whether an Amer-
can official has right to issue an order
contravening a Spanish law unless sup
ported by decree of the governor gen.
eral. Judge Ortiz insists that the in
communicate law is in full force, like
all other Spanish laws which General
Brookes proclamation of Jan. l af-
fir'med were to be unchanged. General
Ludlow interviewed in the case of
Jolliffe and Barton because the Span
ish officials refused to allow the attor-
neys and friends of the prisoners to
have access to them. 1t was this con-
dition of things that prompted his
written instructions to Judge Ortiz not
to apply the incommunicado rule to
Americans.
All railroad communication from Ha-
vana east is suspended because Of the
strike of 200 employees of the United
Railroads affects the provinces of Ma
tanzas and Santa Clara as well as the
routes to Guanajay, province of Pinar
del Rio and to Batabano, where the
steamships make their communication
with Havana. No freight or passengers
could be moved to-day. The inconven-
fence resulting is very great. 1t is
hoped, however, that the strike will be
settled amicably.
To-day the Cuban generals who yes
terday elected General Gomez COM
mander-in- chief We're to notify him Off
cially of their action. They had not
done SO up to o'clock this evening"
but it is reported that he is to be waited
upon by committee during the course
of the evening. There are so many con-
tradictory reports as to their intentions
and doings that the fact of their ac-
complishing little or nothing is begin
ming to discredit in advance whatever
action they may ultimately take, which
at best will be merely conferr!ng an
honorary distinction, as General Brnt Ike
is preparing to handle the payment Of
the Cuban army quite Independently Of
General Gomez.
A soldier at Matanzas yestar lay, cne
of a squad cleaning the court yard of
the castle, found a Spanish gold piece.
The members of the squad immediately
staked off claims in the Western style
and dug up the whole yard, finding
coin dated all the way from 1870 to
1903, ard worth 306 American dollars.

Washington. April 5.--H. G. Mc1ntire
of Helena, who is in the city, seems to
be enjoying the luxury of pipe dream.
He has been telling local reporters that
Montana is a republican state. The story
so impressed the Post man that he speaks
of McIntire as a lawyer of high stand
ing in his state and an influential republic
can" In an interview McIntire is quoted
as saying: although the democratic can
didate for congress was successful in
Montana last year. that does not signify
that tse state Is anti-republican. In fact.
as soon as the free silver craze is dead
Montana will take its place in the list of
sure republican states. The sentiment in
favor of silver, which was so overwhelm-
ingly manifested in ire elections of 1896,
is not nearly so strong among our people
now. They are prosperous and contented.
and are beginning to realize that the free
coinage of the white metal Is not abso-
lutely essential to their welfare"

COSTLY FRUIT IN ENGLAND.
Large Profits of Fla mi nx Under Glass
Startling Statement About
Big Prices.

At a farmers club in Devonshire,
England, not long since, an experienced
gardener in the employ Of one of the
nobility made the statement that the
income from ten acres covered with
glass beneath which early vegetables
and fruits were grown would exceed
that from 10000 acres of the best farm
land as ordinarily titled. No doubt that
assertion was eXtravagant, but it can
be said within the lines Of conservatism
that the Britisher wasn't off in his fig
ures more than so per cent. One man
to our knowledge, German gardener,
sold early cucumbers, melons and cell
cry, from one acre under glass--cold
frames-to Leadville and Aspen (Col.)
miners to the amount of from $1,000
to $4,000 a season, says the California
Nineyardist.
In England, where, on account of the
damp, chilly climate, even peach trees
must be trained fiat against brick or
stone wall like vines in order to insure
fruit, and where corn cannot be grown,
extremely fancy prices are paid for ex-
ira early fresh fruits and vegetables.
y dollar pound for strawberries and
- cents apiece for cucumbers are only
ordinary prices for these products,
when put upon the markets early. Early
fruits and vegetables bring handsome
returns in large cities in any country.

WOMEN IN MEDICINE.
There Are Now Four Thousand Five

Striking as has been the advance Of
women in the medical profession OF
Englaud it-.aas bean even s4ore 30 in
the United States.
twenty-five years ago, says the
Young Woman, there were 500 lady
doctors in practice in the states; to-
day there are 4,50c-one in $4,000 OF the
population. Among these are few dis
tinguished homeopathists, hospital
physicians and surgeons, professors in
medical schools, oculists and electro
therapeutics, the great ma jority being
ordinary doctors. The first lady doc
tor in the world was an American wom-
an-Miss Elizabeth Blackwell, who was
enrolled as a physician in the Medical
Register Of January l, 1S49. One of
America's most noted lady doctors,
Marie f. ZakrzeWska, was native of
Berlin, but she had to leave the German
capital in consequence of the strong
prejudice aroused against her. That
was many years ago, and the lady doc
tor is now tolerated even on the conti-
nent. Even the Ear east has its lady
doctors, the best known among them
being Chinese lady, DR.. Hu King Eng,
first physician to the household of Lii
Hung Chang. Dr. Eng is Christian
and comes of wealthy family. She
took her degree in the United States,
and is now in charge of hospital at
Foo Chow. AS to the earnings of the
lady doctor, they vary, of course, very
largely. There are women who count
their income in thousands, and one lady
practicing in the West end of London
earns $4,000 year. Miss Annie Rom
berger, of Philadelphia, has practice
worth $4,000 year, and she is one of
MANY who earn as much

MAN WHO DEFENDED GUITEAU
A Morose, UnapprOachabic Hermit
Living Alone In Sc
cluded Spot. ,fs'-~s-y

A party of Indiana fishermen just re-
turned from trip among the remote
and unfrequented lakes OF northern
Indiana, ran across a little cabin occu-
pied by Attorney Scovill. the lawyer
who defended c. j. Guiteau in his trial
for the assassination of Presideht Car
field, says the Emporia Gazette.
The humble cottage in which Secs
will was found is situated near the banks
the most rigid recluse, neither seeing
nor beingseen. His simple wants are sup
piled by the merchants of the nearest
town. He puts in his time, nobody
knows how, as his unkempt and un-
couth figure Is seldom seen outside the
walks of the little low cottage, half
hidden by the growth of twining vines
and underbrush.
From an able, affabe and influential
barrister, Scovill has grown into tac-
turn, morose, unapproachable hermit.
desiring no communications with the
world in which he was such II conspitu-
Gus figure as only counsel for his re.a.
is still stunned and despised by every
body for his part in trying to save the
neck OF Guteau on the ground IF
hereditary insanity, though he con-
tends that he did nothing more than
his duty. The loss of his wife and
other misfortunes that seemed to pur-
sue him with relentless hand added to
his melancholy and confirmed him in
his determination to abandon the
world and spend the remained Of his
days in seclusion.
For several years Scovill has led the
life of a hermit, spending his time at
the most secluded spots he could find.
He still contends that Guiteau was men,
tally irresponsible for his act in kill
ing the president, and points to the rec
ord of the family. number Of whom
have both before and since the tragedy
been confined in nadhouses.
