SANcUlLLY SEEKS TROUBLE.
Deiies Order Not to Publicly Wear His Uni.
form in Havana.

Havana. Jan. 9.-Major General
Ludlow, military governor of the de-
partment of Havana, recently re-
uuested the Cuban general. Julio SAN
gully to stay outside the city, or in
the event of his entering it not to
wear his uniform in public. Sanguilly
was informed in writing that he would
be severely dealt with in the event OF
provoking any more trouble such as
occurred at the Albisu theatre. few
nights ago, when, with a party of
friends, he almost provoked physical
conflict with two members of the
municipal police who had not saluted
him. Gen. Ludlow sent a copy of the
letter to Gen. Mayia Rodriguez, San
euillys superior, and it is understood
that Gen. Rodriguez also cautioned
him.
But, today, he has been seen around
the city, conspicuous in a white duck
suit and wide brimmed panama hat,
wearing three gold stars of a major
general. Attended by eight or ten
friends, curling his long gray MUS
tachios and twisting his imperial, he
has been ostentatiously posing in the
cafes, utterly without regard to Gen.
Ludlows directions. Sanguilly seems
to be looking for trouble. Though
unpopular with the Cuban chiefs. he
mas a large following among the lower
classes. The attention of Gen. Rod
riguez will be called to this obstreper-
Gus behavior. as it is considered better
to let his own people handle him.

THERE is movement on foot in
Kentucky 10 call another conven-
ton Of democrats to put ticket in
the field against the Goebel ticket.
At the recent convention at Louis
vile a great deal Of feeling was
aroused over the candidate for
governor. Goebel finally won,
and he won honorably, and it is
the duty of every democrat ia Ken
lucky to stand by him. The dem
ocrat who bolts his party because
he can't run it ought not to be
allowed to leave it gracefully. He
ought to be kicked out. Then let
him start a party Of his own if he
wants to. This is free country.

Is NOT HE RIGHT!

Bryan's position on the Philip
pine question is thus set forth over
his own signatures:
81 favor the Bacon resolution,
which promised Filipinos indie
pendence as soon as stable gov
eminent could be established. l
believe further, that orr nation
should protect the Filipino
republic from outside Interference
while it works out its own destiny;
in other words, ] believe we should
treat the Filipinos as we have
treated the people of Mexico and
Central America. Monarchies are
founded upon force, but republics
are founded upon consent.
"The declaration of independ-
ence asserts that governments de
rive their just powers from the
consent OF the governed. If the
declaration is sound, we cannot
rightfully acquire title by conquest
or by purchase from an alien mon
arch, whose title we disputed when
we furnished arms to the Filipinos.
elf the administration had given
the Filipinos the assurance of in
dependence which was given the
Cubans there would have been no
bloodshed. If that assurance is
given now, hostilities will cease.
No one proposes to withdraw the
soldiers until stable government
is established, but it will be easy
to establish stable government
when it is known that our occupa-
ton Of the island is only tempo
rary.

criminal and contrary to our code
of morality"
