.FORTY-EIGHT TONS OF MONEY
LOADED ON TRANSPORT AT NEW
YORK FOR CUBANs.
STRONGLY GUARDED BY SOLDIERS
Safes and Casks VIII BE Delivered to Gen
eraI Brooke, Who VIII superin-
tend Distribution.

A New York special says: The
United States transport Meade sailed
Saturday for Havana, passing quaran
tine at 5:15 p. m. She has on board
the 3,OOO,O 900 provided by the United
States government to pay Cuban
troops. OF the total amount half is in
gold and half in silver. The weight
of metal is forty-eight tons.
Much interest conferred in the re-
moval of the treasure from the sub
treasury. A large crowd gathered and
watched the proceedings.
Captain Littell, Of the quartermas-
ter's department, had charge of the
detachment of soldiers from the forts
in the neighborhoodo of New York City.
There were about fifty men, each with
Krag-Jorgenson and a full belt of
cartridges. They formed in line at
the treasury building and the boxes
and safes of coin were passed out be-
tween them.
Half dozen ordinary trucks were
in readiness in the street and men
dragged out the money on small hand
trucks to the Pine street entrance of
the buildings.
Half the money was in iron safes
about foot and half high and weigh
ing about 100 pounds each. All the
money was got on the trucks and eight
men boarded each one. They stood
on the safes or casks holding their
rifles, and the trucks were then driven
through Broad street.
The treasure was then taken to pier
3, East river, where the General Meigs,
of the government service, was in wait
ing to receive it. The soldiers again
formed in line and a dozen policemen
stood at the gang plank while the
money was being placed aboard the
Meigs. There were over hundred
casks and safes in all.
The Meigs steamed over to Brook,
Ign, where, at pier %, the coin was
placed on the Meade.
Paymaster General Carey, accom-
panied by Major Rogers, of the pay
masters Office, will have charge of the
money and will turn the coin over tC
General Brooke, who will supervise
its payment to the Cuban soldiers.

The cycle show at one time, both in
this country and in England, seemed
to have outlived its usefulness. There
seemed not to he enough that was new
each year to warrant the trouble and
expense of large show. But either
the cycling public yearly includes 50
large a proportion of new corners as
to make what is old to others a novelty
to them, or else the people found suf-
ficient beguilement in the many
souvenirs, together with the few nov
elites, to make them willing to sup
port an annual exhibition, observes
the New York Commercial Advertiser.
At any rate, the recent show proved
to be one of the best held in America

Rolls IncOlnDlete.

A dispatch from Havana says: The
only obstacle now in the way of paying
off the Cuban troops is the completion
Of the rolls, a work which is being
fastened by Inspector General Roloff.
He says that in some cases the rosters
are missing or too defective to be use
full. He points out that the insurgents
often have no paper, pens or ink.
General Gomez explains that 5000
commissioned and 1000 non-commis-
stoned officers are relatively large
numbers in an army of 80, 900 privates,
but that these officers in many cases
received their appointments because
the Cubans have had no other way of
recognizing bravery and stimulating
enthusiasm.
cit may seem," he says, ga cheap
sort of promotion, but it meant a good
deal to the Cubans.

A Man and Woman Are Executed For a
Foul Murder.
At st. Scholastique, Quebec, Mrs.
Cordelia Poirier and Samuel Parslow
were hanged on the same gallows for
the murder of Mrs. Poirier's husband.
Life was declared extinct in eight min
utes, the necks of both having been
broken.
Mrs, Poirier was firm and collected
throughout. The crowd inside the
Jail ieered at her, but her composure
did not desert her. and at the sugges-
ton of the executioner she turned and
faced the jeerers and stood erect and
prayed to the last.
Parslow exhibited much less cour-
age, and was more dead than alive
when the drop fell. The condemned
were taken to the scaffold separately,
and were prevented from seeing each
other by a screen placed between
them.

A paper has recently appeared in
the English journals giving some not
able data based on the national census
OF several successive decades. A most
remarkable fact is the decline in the
proportion Of women employed in ag-
ricultural and farm service in the
realm, also marked decline in the
proportion of women employed in silk,
worsted land wooden manufactures,
likew Sc in the proportion of seam
stresses; on the other hand, an enor-
nous increase is noted in the proper
ton of the sex engaged in the teach
ing service aud as tailoresses, who
are mostly sewing machinists. 1t is
admitted, in this paper after an elab-
crate and careful Investigation Of all
the facts and statistics relating to the
point in question--that, while the in
dustrial employment of married wom-
en- with young children is an obvious
sin, it is not the paramount one. In
word, the Paper corroborates the
conclusion arrived at by previous in
vestigation by eminent specialists in
this line, that the factory employment
Of women is not the main cause of the
high rate of infant mortality in Ian
cashire and other industrial localities.
Some interesting tables are given IN
the paper cited, showing that there is
much more constant relation between
infant mortality and the social condi
ton of different town populations

General Joseph Wheeler saw the

future status. Subsequently he said
that while the question of his remain

would not remain in the service. He
thought the president would be unable
to find place for him and he was not
pushing the matter.

GENERAL GOMEZ INPEACHED
BY THE SO.CALLED MILITARY AS.
sEMBLY OF CUBA.
The OLD HERO IS NOT pERTURBED
On the Contrary. He Notifies the Assembly
by Telephone That "He Enjoys
the Situation"

A special from Havana says: The
Cuban military assembly in public
session Saturday afternoon impeached
General Maxine Gomez and removed
him from his command as general-in-
chief of the Cuban army, the first
ballot taken resulting in 20 votes be-
ing cast in support of the motion to
impeach and remove General Gomez
against 4 in opposition. The meeting
lasted from 2 until 7 o'clock.
General Gomez's only supporters
were General Cespedes and General
Nunez. The original motion, which
was introduced by Senior Manuel San
gully, provided for the abolition of
the grade of general-in-chief, but an
amendment was offered to this by
Senior Aguerro, which read "to abol-
ish the grade of general-in-chief and
to remove General Gomez for failure
in his military duties and disobedience
to the assembly,"
Senior Aguerro declared that Gomez
was insubordinate and should be pun
ished, and Senior Sanguilly insinuated
that the general was traitor to Cuba
Much passion was evident in the
speeches, in some of which Gomez
was declared to have been delinquent
in his duties and disobedient because
he had accepted the proposition of
Robert P. Porter, President McKin-
ley's special emissary, without con-
sulting the assembly; because he had
taken upon himself the arrangements
for the payment and disarming of the
Cuban troops independent of the as
sembly, and because he had declared
to the assembly that he would observe
its rulings in so far as he considered
them beneficial to Cuba.
The assembly declared that the
SO, 100000 was insufficient, and that it
has not yet accepted the proposition.
The discussion of this question will
soon be taken up, now that General
Gomez has been removed.
Senior Gonzales de Quesada, who
accompanied Mr.. Porter in Cuba, was
attacked by Seniors Gualberto Gomez,
Sanguilly and Aguerro, who declared
that he had acted in bad faith, and
had deceived them. Senior Aguerro
likened the present conditions con-
fronting the assembly to those that
confronted the French chamber when
it was proposed to impeach President
MacMahon.
Colonel Nora and General Nunez
declared that the present step was
useless, and would make the assembly
ridiculous in the eyes of the world.
General Gomez is believed to be
stronger than the assembly in the
affection of the Cuban army. Many
privates are anxious to leave the army
and go to work, especially when they
are able to obtain money to start them
in life anew.
The position of the assembly is no
tably weak, as the military admins
tration supports General Gomez, as dc
also the planters and property owning
element, who are tired of the Cubar
army, which subsists half upon charity
and half upon contributions levied BY
means of threats
General Gomez received at Molinat
Saturday evening a telephone message
announcing to him the decision of thu
assembly. He answered calmly: Sal
right, / enjoy the situation. E"

General Wheeler has the matter I'M
