GENERAL JIMINEZ ARRESTED
DOMINICAN REBEL LEADER AP-
PRETENDED At CTENFUEGOS.
He Denounccs His Arrest an Outrage
and Yields Only to Forco-NIuch Ex-
element Caused by the eIncident-Do-
mintcans Active In Vicinity of Sanu
ago Fitting Out Expeditions.

| Havana, Aug. 18.-In view of the fact
that Colonel Bacallao, chief Of the sec
ret police, persisted in his declaration
that General Jiminez, the aspirant to
the presidency Of Santo Domingo was
in Havana, either not having left or
having returned, the military authori-
ties telegraphed to Cienfuegos instruct
ing Capt. Stamper, collector Of customs
there, to ascertain whether Jiminez was
on the Menendez steamer and to take
him under arrest if that should be the
case. Just as the steamer was about
leaving Cienfuegos Captain Stamper lo-
Gated Tminez and arrested him.
Jiminez denounced the arrest as an
outrage. He said he had broken no
law and would not yield except to force.
Captain Stamper replied that he was
ready to use force if necessary and Ji-
n1inez then yielded, remarking that he
did SO only because he could not help
himself. Senor Frias mayor Of Glen
fuegos, refused to make the arrest. saw
ing that General Jiminez was an old
personal friend When Jinainez was
taken into custody Senor Frias was
found, with a police inspector. 1t is be-
lieved the mayor was urging him to
leave the steamer, to conceal himself
and to await for better opportunity.
Captain Stamper informed .Jminez
that he would make him as comfortable
as possible, and, after Jiminez and his
suite mad PACKED their trunks, they were
driven, accompanied by the chief of
ponce and Captain Stamper, to the I'm

| does not force conviction in swift, strong
flashes. He is not graphic and never
goes direct to the root of matter But
he is not tedious. The beautiful voice
saves him from that. 1t makes the lis
tener patiently wade through the lesser
argument. His arrangement of argu-
ment Is cumulative. The presiding
fudge rubbed him often against the
grain and often begged him not to be
diffuse, not to speak so much about his
own concerns, but to keep to the Drey-
fus affair. Picquart respectfully ac-
cepted these reproofs, saying that he

CRUELTY IN A COUNTY HOME
ANPESTIG1TION INTO CONDUCT OF
HARTFORD INSTITUTION.
witness Declares That Supt. Adams
KnocISed Little GirIs Head Against
stone and Duclxed "a Boys Head Into
Pail of Wnter-Also ChoIked Chill
dreR and Starved Them.

Hartford. Aug. 1S-An investigation
Into the management of the County
temporary home at Warehouse Point,
Hartford county, was begun before the
county commissioners and board of
management to-day and a number of
witnesses testified to alleged acts of
cruelty and parsimonious conduct on
the part of Superintendent H. M.
Adams. The home shelters upwards of
one hundred children, boys and girls.
DR.. G. e. Porter, formerly the home
physician; Richard McTighe, employed
at the home; Richard Godbey, a for
mer gardener, and Mrs. Alice Taylor,
who had been matron for two years
until April last, were among the wit
nesseS.
DR.. Porter admitted that he had no
personal knowledge of cruelty in the
institution. Mrs. Taylor thought the
children had food enough but that the
superintendent went too far in his dis
cipline. McTighe testified to seeing the
superintendent knocking the head of a
little girl between four and five years
of age against a stone because she had
taken piece Of ice from the cart; and
again after beating a small boy Adams
took him by the heels and ducked his
head in pail Of water twice. Adams
also choked children and the imprints
Of his fingers were visible on the throat
of "a twelve-year-old girl and a boy of
the same age. He also knew of Adams
tying up boy with a chain to a door
knob. Two small children for playing
in the ash heap had their heads forced
into wheelbarrow half filled with
ashes and the ashes were, rubbed into
their faces so hard as to bring blood.
A common punishment the witness said
was to lock children up in the wash
room and give them half slice of
bread and some water for dinner and
Arthur Johnson, one of the boys who
had been punished in this manner told
the witness that he ate stuff which he
took from the swill pail in order to ap-
pease his hunger. Godbeys testimony
was in the main similar to that of Nc
