hand, accompanied by her brother, Mr. T.
Flerce, and Lady Colin Campbell
MI N Blood. a brother of Lady Colin
campbell, who accompanied Mrs. Perot to

There was some excitement in the court
room when Mr.. w. H. Perot, the father-in-
Jaw OF Mrs Perot, entered accompanied by
Mr. Hodson Of the United States embassy.
Mf. Hodson pointed to where the opposing
party was seated, and said:
There they are. Those are Rlood's
brothers and sisters
Mr.. Perot advanced to greet his grand
daughter, but she hid her face in her hands
muttering:
II don't wish to speak to you.'
But, my dear, he replied Il have let

SENIOR CORREA'S PROMOTION.
He Has Been Made Nicaraguan Minis.
ter to This Country

In his message to the Nicara guam con-
greSS, yesterday, President Zelaya referred
TO treaty made with the United States, of
cate April - last. 1t is learned upon in
quiry at the STATE Department here that
TINS was merely an agreement entered into
between Minister Merry and the Mica
raguan government, by which the 81 900 in
duties collected from the American mcr-
chants in Bluefields against their protest
by Gen. Torres was placed in the hands of
the British consul at BIuefelds pending
an agreement as to its disposition. Up to
this moment the two goVernln nts are still
in negotiation or this subject.
oenor torrca, minister from Nicaragua
has returned to Washington after d two
mcnths visit home, during which he con-
ferred with President Zelaya concerning
the BluaneidS affair, and also the Mica
ragua canal question. The arrangement
with the BlUetields government was due in
large part to Mr. COrrea' $ efforts. During
his visit the Nicaraguan government hon
ored Mr.. Correa by appointing him minis
ter to Chile. AS ne had numerous private
interests in Washington, the appointment
was finally changed so as to make him
minister at Washington instead ef charge
datfaires, as heretofore. He has written
the State Department that he holds ere
dentialS as minister, and on the return Of
President Mckinley he viii be presented
in this advanced capacity.

TRiENG TO GET MONEY.
Sensational Statement in Letter to u
liavnna SeMspuper.

HAVANA, August IA Cuban general
III letter published in the Independenci;t
today says some commanders Of the Gu
ban army have taken advantage of the
S,op,VOu sratuity to get money from the
soldiers for granting them the certificates
necessary to enable them to collect their
quota. He gives three cases of men who
were charged money by Ramos, a colonel
in Cuban regiment. In another instance
IL appears a man could not get his Ger
uHcate, owing to the lack of money to
pay Tor IT. The writer says:
Every day sees that the Americans are
more and more right Many wears must
pass before the CuGans learn how to han
ole money without letting it stick to their
fingers '''e-t
The general then asks, in view of the
lactS adduced, what would have haDDened

cover. and that after that period has passed
and they have recovered and their effects
have been disinfected they are in condition
to discharge from the hospital.
1T is too early to make a definite proph-
ecy in regard to this outbreak said Dr.
Wyman. 1t is only four days since We
knew of the presence of yellow fever at the
Hampton home. Everything certainly looks
encouraging today, and the fact that the
soldier who is supposed TO have brought
the fever to the home did not go to some
southern place. but went to the northwest,
where he can do no harm, gives US addi-
tional enCoura cement.
THAT yellow fever can be prevented from
spreading over any considerable territory
has been shown by the record at Bruns-
wick. Ga, in 1893, when it was confined to
the place of it's original outbreak. Ihat
was also done at McHenry, Miss, last
year, where there was no spreading OF the
disease. and although there was yellow
fever in other places in Louisiana ana IN
Mississippi it had no connection with the
McHenry outbreak Again at Franklln:
La last wear there was extension of
the disease from that place. 1t is most i'm
pOrtant that we be given notice promptly
of the presence of the disease IN city
when it breaks'Ou Delay would allow 1t
to spread before our measures for confln-
ing il had been put in force. At McHenry
the disease was suppressed long before
there was a frost, and at Brunswick ana
Franklin the infection continued until
there was frost at those places, but IT dld
not spread to any other place.
The News still Good.
Up to 3 o'clock this afternoon Dr. Wymah
had received no information that Indicated
any spread of the contagion today. Ihe
question of fumigating the mail from Ola
Point, Hampton, Phoebus and the National
Soldiers Home has been turned over to
the Post Office Department. Although there
is no Infection at Old Point and Hampton,
it is thought advisable to disinfect the
mails from those places.
Dr. Bruner of Savannah sent telegram
that there are no immune physicians there
for service in the infected district.

SEEDS FROM ABROAD.
Sent to the Agricultural Depuctment
by MIR. Swingle,

Mr.. Walter 7. Swingle special agent of
the Agricultural Department. has returned
from an eighteen months tour of the coun-
tries bordering on the Mediterranean sea-
made in the interest of the department
During this time Mr. Swingle visited
France, Spain, Greece, Italy and Turkey
and the Algerian provinces in Africa, pene-
trating the desert of Sahara. He obtained
and forwarded to the department large
variety of seeds and plants, and also made
careful notes upon the method of cultiva-
ton ana harvesting. He found many
plants and vegetables which he thinks will
prove adaptable to the southern portion of
the United States. including the arid south
west, where irrigation is necessary.
