WALL STREETS HAND.
1t Is Seen In the Wheat Market in
New York.

NEW YORK, Jan. 24-Wheat trad
ers, who have heretofore been rather
skeptical on the question of outside in
terest in wheat, were convinced by the
action of today's market that Wall
street and other public interests had
taken vigorous hold to the exclusion
Of all other influences. Throughout the
forenoon and early afternoon there was
scene Of old time excitement and
violent price fluctuations in the pit, ad-
vancing May option to 779sc, or INC
higher than 1t has been at any time in
the present season. Then the North
west commenced to sell, and room
traders, seeing their advantage, ham
mered the market heavily producing a
final reaction to 77Ac Nevertheless,
final prices were 1H@1Hc higher than
on the previous day, and sentiment un-
shaken, expecting further support from
outside sources. There is little in the
news at present to encourage buyers,
but in purely speculative market or
dinary news cuts but little figure. Eu-
rope took about fifty loads of cash
wheat and sent firm cables. Spot prop
erty still commands a good premium
at New York, and the worlds visible
supply today, instead of showing the
million bushels increase expected, ac-
tually decreased 302, 900 bushels.

Newspaper Man. Gets a Verdict
Against the Actor for Piracy

Newspaper Man. Gets a Verdict
Against the Actor for Piracy.
CHICAGO, Jan. 24.-John Maxwell, a
Chicago newspaper man, was today in
the federal court awarded a verdict of
$4,000 against Nat c. Goodwin, the
actor, for infringement on Maxwelrs
play of Congress. Maxwell claimed
that he submitted the play Of Con
gress' to Goodwin, who, after looking
it over, declared he did not want it, but
later produced a play called "Ambi-
tion," of which Henry Guy Carleton
was named as the author, and large
portions of which were, according to
Maxwell, taken from Congress-
The attorney for the defendant asked
that the case be taken from the jury
on the point of law that even if the
actor defendant had deliberately
pirated the Chicago mans play, the
plaintiff was entitled to no recompense
because his copyright on Congress"
had not been perfected. Judge Seaman
had the motion under advisement since
Saturday, and today he announced that
the case must go to the jury to be de-
cided on facts and not on a point of
law. The jury was out but twenty
minutes before returning a verdict for
the plaintiff The first vote of the jury
resulted in an unanimous verdict of
guilty" as to the charge that Goodwin
p1rated MaXwell's play. The next vote
was as to the amount of damages This
vote ranged from $4,000 to $1,000, on
which an average Of $4,000 was struck.
1t was next agreed that $4,000 would
be the proper amount. and by unani-
NOUS vote this sum was agreed upon.

American lines.
Reports from the interior indicate
that Aguinaldo's authority is now gen.
orally recognized. Every available
male is being recruited and arms de-
pots are being established at San Ber-
nardo, Union, Trinidad and other
large towns The surrounding country
is being levied on for supplies, and the
Filipino troops are living on the fat

are compelled to subsist on rice.
There is some friction between the
Filipino civil and military authorities,
but they are united on the question Of
independence.
1t is estimated that there are fully.
10000 Filipinos under arms, and it is
said that there are nearly fifty Maxim
guns at Malolos, some of them having
been recently acquired.
The Filipino military authorities are
convinced, they say, that the Ameri-
cans will be unable to work effectively
outside Of Manila, in the event of hos
tilities, hence they feel confident in the
future. Many of the Filipino officers
complain of alleged discourteous treat
ment upon the part Of Americans at

How Cuban Brigands VIII Be Pur-
sued by Americans.
HAVANA, Jan. 24-Should Cuban
soldiers take to the fields and become
bandits, the United States military au-
thorities will know what to do. They
will be followed by a force of cavalry
and persistently pursued. The same
general method will be observed as has
been followed in dealing with the In
dams in the plains and mountains of
the West. The plan has been carefully
considered by old border fighters, who
are confident they could catch the ban
dts, notwithstanding the climatic con-
ditions. The Fourth cavalry regiment
is stationed in the province of Pinar
del Rio, the Second cavalry regiment
in the province of Santa Clara and
MatanZas, and the Eighth cavalry
regiment In the province of Puerto
Principe. The department governors
and the commanders Of the various
garrisons have received instructions to
act promptly and take the first
opportunity which brigandage may af-
ford to show what the United States
soldiery can do when action is de-
manded.
A conference of Cuban generals and
civilians who have been discussing the
Cuban army question with the Amer
'can military authorities for the past
day or two stated that the pay ques-
tion should be settled quickly, rs the
privates are getting uneasy, and may
break out into open violence. Doubt

leans In the Philippines.

MADRID, Jan. 24.-The Impartial to-
Gay says: "All the intelligence from
the Philippine islands shows that the
Americans recognize their inability to
overcome the insurgents in the island
of Luzon and the Visayas. The Fill
pinOs understand that the Americans
wish to tyrannize over them and ex-
ploit them as the Spaniards never did.
The Americans intend to exert their
authority only at important points, as
they are already convinced that such
domination would not be efficacious.
They would be constantly fighting the
insurgents. and the latter would soon
put an end to the Americans, as the
Filipinos have on their side not only
bullets, but the climate and the enor-
nous expenditure the situation will en-
tall on the Americans. This explains
Washington's desire to first get the
treaty of Paris voted on, and then open
negotiations with the rebel chiefs in
order to see If Aguinaldo and his COL
leagues will consent at least to accept
an American protectOrate, with self
qovernn,ent

Wants to Know if FiIipinOs Are to
BE Recognized as Citizens.
WASHINGTON, Jan. A.-Mr. Lodge
spoke for only half an hour. His deliv-
cry was earnest, and his address held
the attention Of both senators and oc-
cupants Of the galleries throughout.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Lodges
speech, Mr.. Teller, Colorado addressed
the senate upon a question in respe It
to the constitutional powers of the gov
ernment iii the territories, both prior to
the starting of the legislative machin-
cry relating to the territories, and sub
sequently thereto. His speech was a
resume of the legislative acts of the
&C ngress relating to the territories and
the constitutional bearings of those
acts. In conclusion, Mr.. Teller said
that by citing his authorities he de-
sired merely to place before the senate
and country an argument in support
of his position that the constitution by
its own force did rot go into the terri
tcr1es, and that it would not go into
Cuba, Porto Rico or the Philippines.
He was willing, he said, to trust the
American people and the American
congress to deal carefully and honestly
with any territory, however and where
ever it might be acquired by the United
States
Mr.. Clay Oem., Ga.) then addressed
the senate.
AT the conclusion of Mr.. Claws
speech, Mr.. Davis, chairman of the
committee on foreign relations. was
recognized to move an executive ses-
sion. He yielded to Mr. Teller, who de-
sired to make an addition to the au-
thorities which he had previously cited
upon the force and effect of the con-
stitution in the territories. He read an
extract from a speech Of Mr. Webster,
dealing with the rights Of inhabitants
of territories of the United States. He
expressed the belief that the citation
he had made covered a point raised
previously by Mr.. Hoar in a question.
Mr.. Hoar, in reply, contended that
the quotation from Mr.. Webster which
Mr.. Teller had referred to did not meet
his point. His desire was, he said. to
know before the senate's feet We're tan
gled, before the ratification of the
treaty, whether the Filipinos were to
be regarded as citizens or subjects of
tHe CHpteu otdteS. MT. hOar argued
that they would be citizens, and if the
Philippines were taken by the United
States every Filipino child born under
the flag of this country, be he Moham-
medan, Chinese, Japanese, or Malay.
would be citizens of this country. and
would be entitled to come to the Unit
ed States and enter into competition
with the laborers of Massachusetts, or
OF Colorado or of any other state. That
was the point Mr.. Hoar said he desired

sary to use them.

CUBAN CAPTAIN ARRESTED FOR
HARANGUING CUBANS WORK.
ING ON PLANTATIONS
HIS CASE NOT ISOLATED
Lieut.. Col. Ray Reports That Rowing
Bands Are Doing Much That Ia
Unlawful In Guantanamo District
Many Cuban Soldiers Are Still
In Possession of Their ARMS
Grave Issue to Be Met.


GUANTANAMO, Cuba, JAM 24-Cu-
ban Capt. Serafino Planchet, who ap-
piled for and secured work upon the
Santa Cecilia sugar plantation near
Guantanamo, harangued the workmen
at noon today and ordered them to
leave their work under penalty of ar
rest and trial by court martial by the
Cuban army. The American troops
who were guarding the plantation ar
rested Planchet and brought him to
Guantanamo. On his way he told them
he had acted under the orders of his
own officers, though he refused to give
names.
Lieut.. Col Ray, who is in command
Of the United States forces in this dis
trict, says the action of Planchet is by
no means an isolated case All over the
valley are small bands Of insurgent
troops who refused to disarm and
whose officers will permit their men to
work only three days week, COM
pelling them to report at their camps
for duty on the other days. Col. Ray
says that certain Of these people, tir-
ing of the tyranny of their officers, have
applied to him for protection, which
has been invariably granted. Twenty
three plantations in the Guantanamo
district are now guarded by United
States troops, the work engaging the
greater part Of Col. Rays regiment,
in addition to the troops whose head
quarters are at Baracoa and Sagua de
Tanano. He says he cannot under
stand the intentions in burning the
plantations, unless they are trying to
keep the district unsettled At all
events, the existence of these rowing
bands is exceedingly imprudent.
Maj. Edward, of Col. Rays regiment,
who was recently called to account for
a shortage in his accounts, admits a
shortage of about 5000 and has ten
dered a check for this amount He
stcutly denies any offense except care
lessness, but he has been placed un-
conduct unbecoming an officer and gen
tleman.
There has been considerable sickness
among the troops in the Guantanamo
district, many men suffering from ma
1arial fever. Lieut.. Col. Ray recon-
mends the removal Of the men from
the main garrison to the mountains,
twenty-five miles away, where there is
no fever and where the Spanish in
variably sent men fresh from Spain.

Order for the Collection of Taxes
In Cuba.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-The pro-
test against the continuation of the
Spanish bank at Havana as a medium
for tax collection was thoroughly dis
cussed at the cabinet meeting today,
and Gen. Brookes statement of OBJ
jections carried conviction into the
minds of the cabinet officers, although
no final action was taken. The officials
of the war department, it should be
stated, in contemplation of the con-
tinuation of the old system, had it in
mind only as temporary expedient,
believing that it formed the surest and
quickest method of meeting the diff
Guilty this government found itself in
in taking upon itself the tax collec-
tions. They are, however, perfectly
willing to accept as sound Gen.
Brooke's suggestions, therefore it may
be predicted that the original plan
will be abandoned.

expected that more than two or three

Gen. Eagan will plead not guilty in
a general way, and then he probably
will enter the plea of justification. This
action is customary in cases of this
character, but it rests with the court
alone whether or not the plea will be
allowed. 1t Is not likely that it will
