MONARCHY FOR CUBA
UTOPIAN SCHEME BEING ENGI-
NEERED BY AN ADVENTURES
IN HAVANA
HE WOULD BE A KING
Gain for Him the Support of
Those Who Have Been AccustOm-
ed tc Wear Titles Which He Un-
dertakes to Return - Regret at
Retirement of Gen. Carpenter.

HAVANA, July LA Lucia will to-
morrow publish a statement regarding
matters which its conductors say they
have been investigating and carefully
guarding for several weeks, owing to the
reticence of those concerned and the de-
sire of the latter to avoid a precipitate
disclosure leading to a possible frustra-
ton of their plans. The paper will say:
Cuba, during the last four months,
has been land of many surprises. The
latest is the establishment of a royalist
party. The new organization is unim-
portant at present, probably numbering
not more than fifty members, but a well
known Cuban general, claiming to be a
descendant of Charlemagne, is at the
| head of the party, and the meeting place
is usually the Inglaterra cafe. The Gu
ban general in question is said to be dis
satisfied with American rule. He thinks
that what Cuba needs is not republic,
but strong hand at the helm, like his
own. He is of the opinion that the people
of the Latin race prefer royalty and the
honCrs accruing under a mOnarchical
regime. The Cuban general referred to
is understood TO deny that he is the head
of party with such objects, but there is
considerable evidence to show that such
move is on foot. This official has been
reported to Gov. Gen. Brooke for collect
ing 30 centavos from Spanish merchant
on the ground that it was an assessment
for fund devoted to driving out the in
terVeners. Gen. Ludlow has been
made aware of his successful attempts
to collect money from gambling houses
under threat of having them closed if the
demands We're refused. For political rea-
sons it has not been considered advis-
able thus far to proceed against him, but
he has been advised to discontinue the
practice, and it is believed he is more
interested in starting a new party than
making money.
WILL MAKE THEM NOBLE.
"In support of this bombastic scheme
the promoter has represented that he will
persuade a majority of the alcaldes to
give the movement their support by
promising to make them dukes, counts
or barons. 1t is also in the plans to form
Cuban legion of honor. Several per-
SONS who affect to believe that such
scheme might succeed say the outcome
will depend largely on the charm and
novelty with a populace judiciousy pre-
pared to embrace the idea
''The theory is more acceptable to such
families as already hold lands from the
crown of Spain, or Spaniards residing In
Cuba, who, owing to business or other
causes, have been forced to forfeit their
patents of nobility. The promoters of this
movement allege that they expect finan-
cial assistance from these sources, as
the plan promises to substitute equal dig
mites and positions for those that have
been forfeited
1t is asserted that no fewer than 10000
Cubans will sign the petition to President
Mckinley recently sent for signature to
the principal cities of the eastern prov
inces by those interested in the con-

PRAISE FOR OTIS.
Claimed That He Has Done Well in
the Philippines.

the Philippines.
WASHINGTON, July 2.-Gen. Harrison
Gray Otis, of California, who saw con-
siderable active duty in the Philippines.
arrived In Washington today His visit to
the East is entirely on private business.
and the general said tonight it has no
connection whatever, directly or Indirect
ly, with Philippine affairs.
Gen. Otis has nothing but praise for
the manner in which Maj Gen Otis has
managed the campaign against the insur-
gents in the Philippines. The volunteers,
although not enlisting to fight against
the F1lipinos, have accepted the situation
ike true Americans, and have done their
work uncomplainingly. Said Gen. Otis:
AT the time when hostiities began our
estimate was that the rebels had about
$4,000 armed men. Our belief now is that
as result Of the active work of the
American forces this number has been re-
duced fully 80 per cent by reason of
deaths, wounds and desertions The re-
oel1ous forces themselves are becoming
tired of the war, and in their present
demoralized state one decisive victory OF
the American arms would, I believe,
have the effect of bringing about peace.
With $4,000 men under Gen Otis this can
be accomplished. 1t must be remember
ed, however, that the dry season. in
which active campaigning may be re-
sumed, does not begin until the first Of
December. This should be thoroughly
understood by the American people, so
there may be no complaints in the mean
time of the inactivity of the forces I'M

FORESTERS' OUTING.
Were Given n Great Reception at
New UIm.

When the train from New Ulm rolled
into the St Louis depot, Minneapolis, at
1870 o'clock last evening 1t had on board
about 200 members of the Order of For
esters, of this city, who had put in the
day fraternizing with their brothers up
country. That the hospitality of New
Ulm had been fully up to its usual stand
ard was evident from the jolly spirits in
which the junlleters returned. They went
up on an early morning train, and made
merry from the time they reached the
town until they said goH%-by. A number
of st. Paul Foresters/ Eere also present.
The occasion of the Trip was the general
invitation extended to the Foresters Of
the state by the New Ulm contingent to
participate in a union picnic. In all there
were about 500 Foresters in attendance.
The majority of them brought their fam
lilies along, so that the total attendance
was much larger.
The New Ulm Foresters met the city
folks in body at the depot, headed by
the Second regiment band, and escorted
them to the picnic grounds at Catholic
park. The day was given over to sight
seeing, athletic sports and many other
forms of amusement The Yales and the
New UTlm base ball team crossed bats
in a very close and exciting contest, the
latter being triumphant by a score of

John F. Seib, of st. Paul, secretary
of the Republican county committee has
received notice of his reappointment for
another year as local government clerk
to count the Issue of revenue stamps
that are printed on checks. Mr.. Seib was
appointed a year ago, his term expiring
Friday. William H. Farnham, of St.
Paul, who was at that time appointed
agent to supervise the printing of the
stamps, was replaced by Frank D. Bar
nard, of Minneapolis.
Congress provided that the war rev.
enue stamps should be printed by large
number of contractors instead of by
one institution, as in the case of the
postage stamps. Last year the Pioneer
Press Job Printing company, of st. Paul,
and the Cootey company of Minneapolis,
were the Minnesota contractors.
To see that they did their work proper
ly there were four inspectors appointed,
f. M Barnard and Capt. ]. H. Sandberg.
of Minneapolis and w II. Farnham and
J. F. Seib, of st. Paul. The law pro-
vides that the inspectors shall not be
employed in the district in which they
reside, and as a result Messrs. Barnard
and Sandberg made journeys to st. Paul
and Messrs. Selb and Farnham patronizel
Mr. Lowrys interurban lines in order
to see that the Cootey company did as
it should.
This year the Pioneer Press company
refused to make a bid and the Cootey
company was designated as the printers
for Minnesota. Messrs. Barnard and
Sandberg were reappointed to their posi-
tions, which are worth $1,000 and $500, re-
spectively, and Messrs. Farnham and
Selb let out into the cold, cold world.
They didn't like it, and the aid of Sena-
tor Davis has been invoked and he is re-
ported to have called the attention of the
department to the error that was made
in the appointments of Sandberg and
Barnard. The other congressman have
also awakened and they are demanding
to know if they are not to be recognized
IN the matter.
The work Is not so severe that one
man cannot attend to it, but the treasury
department has concluded to have one
man actually present when the stamps
are printed, and that the other should
make the regular reports to Washington.
The Minneapolis officials are naturally
displeased that Minneapolis firm should
have secured the contract.

Imposing Ceremonies Were Con-
Quoted in New Orleans.
NEW ORLEANS, July 2-Archbishop
BarnadO, of Santiago, and Bishop
Blenk, of Porto Rico, were consecrated
today in the st. Louis cathedral, Arch.
bishop Chappelle, the apostolic delegate
to the Spanish-American countries, of
floating. Bishops Allen, of Mobile;
Merchar, of Indian Territory; IIesIin, of
Natchez; Won Damu.r, of San Antonio,
and Father Descreax, superior of the
Mcrist college at Washington, are anon
the visiting clergy. The ceremony was
very imposing and the presents received
by the new prelates unusually rich and
numerous.
There were several notable features to
the affair. Instead Of being recon-
mended to the pope by councils of bish-
ops or priests, both appointments were
made direct, upon the request of Arch.
bishop Chappelle.
Archbishop Barnado is the first native
Cuban to occupy so high a place in thu
church, while Bishop Blenk is probably
the first native LOuisianan to receive the
honor The first bishop of New Orleans
was consecrated in Cuba, to which see
Louisiana was then attached, and after
the lapse of over a century the first
prelate of free Cuba came to New Or
leans for the ceremony of installation.

PACKERS wILL5wAIT.
Big Strike VIII Not ne Declared at
Present.

CHICAGO. July 2.-There will be no
general strike of packing house EN-.
ployes at present. This much was de-
cided on at a mass meeting of discon-
tented laborers held this afternoon at
Forty-third and Wallace streets
The idea of a strike has not been given
up altogether, but the opinion prevailed
that the time was not yet ripe and that
the interests of the men would be best
conserved by waiting until an organiza-
ton could be perfected of sufficient
strength to carry to a successful con-
clusion any movement of the kind The
first move in that direction was made
at the meeting. An organization known
as the Packing House Employees union
was formed and over 500 men became
members. The avowed purpose of the
union is to fight the packers, and it was
said openly at the meeting that as soon
as the union was sufficiently strong the
packers would have to meet the demands
of the men or a general strike would
take place.

Game Wardens to Protect MinnesO-

There are large chunks of trouble ahead
for the men who take their guns and go
hunting the juicy prairie chickens before
the time the law says they are ripe. This
practice has been common of late years,
and all true sportsmen will rejoice that
the game commission has taken the nee
essary steps to curtail, if not suppress it.
To this end Executive Agent Beutner
paid visit to Minneapolis a few days
ago and appointed five deputy wardens,
who will report to Warden Donoghue,
who has charge of the work In Minneap-

be made public, the authorities believing
better results will be obtained if the
poachers are kept in ignorance of the
identity of the men who are delegated to
protect the game.
