A DEMOCRATIC JUSTICE,
For Pennsylvania's supreme Court OH
Account of Justice Williams Death.

For p PeEnsylvania's Supreme Court OH
Account of Justice Williams Death.
Philadelphia, Jan. 26.-Henry W..
Williams, associate justice of the su-
preme court of Pennsylvania, died
suddenly while sitting in a chair in his
room at the Continental hotel yester-
day. He had been suffering from heart
disease for several years past. On
Tuesday Of last week Judge Williams
administered the oath of office to w.
A. Stone. Pennsylvania's new gov
ernor. Judge Williams was 6S years
old. He had been a judge since 1865,
and was elected to the supreme bench
in 1883.
Pttsburg, Jan. 26.-The death Of
Justice Williams will permit the Demo-
Gratis of this state to have supreme
Justice elected by that party. Chief
Justice James p. Sterrett will complete
his term of 81 years on the first Mon
day of January. 1900. This makes an
election to fill his place imperative this
fall. The death of Justice Williams
gives Governor Stone a chance to ap-
point Republican until the next gen.
eral. election. The state constitution
provides tnat whenever TWO Judges OF
the supreme court are to be chosen
for the same term Of service each voter
shall vote for one only, and when three
are to be chosen he shall vote for nc
mhre than two" This gives the Demo-
Gratis "a representative on the bench
for the next ensuing 81 years. This
same thing occurred but twice before
in the history of Pennsylvania since the
adoption Of the new constitution.

CUBANS DENY CHARGES.
No Organized Band to Destroy tho
Sugar Cane.
INSURGENTS WORK FAITHFULLY

According to the Statements of Guam
tunamo's Mayor and Some Planters,
Whilo Others Uphold the Statements
of Lieutenant Colonel Ray.
Guantanamo, Cuba, Jan. 2S.-The Gu
ban general, Pedro Perez, mayor of
Guantanamo. denies absolutely the
charges recently brought by Lieuten-
ant Colonel Ray and others against
the insurgents in this district-partic-
ularly the charges. of incendiarism and
brigandase. Exhibiting his commits
sion as a major general in the Cuban
army as a proof of the hold he has
upon the insurgents, Mayor Perez said
to the press correspondents.
II am convinced that here is no band
organized to burn the sugar cane, and
l know that there Is not an insurgent
camp in the entire district under my
supervision as Cuban commander"
Among the planters opinions are
about equally divided. Three whose
plantations are in the immediate vicin-
ity of Guantanamo assured the cor
respondents that they had had no
trouble, and did not believe any one
else had. On the other hand three
others, with equally good opportunity
TO know the facts, confirmed the reports
of burnings.
Soledad plantation, which employs
400 ex-insurgents, has begun grinding,
and Ernest Brooks, manager and part
owner, denies that there has been any
trouble. He says 1t is nothing un-
usual at this time of the year for cane
to burn, as an accident might set 1t on
fire. His brother, Theodore Brooks.
who owns several large plantations, Is
firmly convinced that there does exist
an organized band for burning cane
and preventing grinding.
The United States soldiers who are
guarding the plantations are equally
divided in opinion as to this matter,
some of them saying that they are al
ways expecting trouble, while others
can see no necessity for guarding TIL,
plantations Chief of Gendarmerie Va
liente asserts that this district Is abso-
lutely the most peaceful part Of the
province. and that over 900 former in
surgents are now at work on various
plantations near here,

VOTE on TIE PEACE TREATY.


seunte Agrees to settle the Contro-
yersy on the sixth of February.
Washington, Jan. 26.-Only a brief
time was occupied by the senate in
open session. A few bills, on the cal
cndar were passed, but no other busi-
ness Of Importance was transacted.
There were two executive sessions,
however, and in the first an agreement
was reached to vote on the peace
treaty on Feb. G, at p. m. At the
second Senator Davis presented the
American commissioners reasons for
the acceptance OF the treaty in tn form
in which IT was finally concluded.
Wife he admitted that there had been
gone diversion of opinion among pub
icists in the United States as to the
poll of including the Philippines in
the agreement, there had been practi-
caliy no other honorable way out OF
the diiiit uly. As for himself. Mr.. Da-
Wis was willing from the start to en-
tend our boz lders so as to include these
islanGa, because he believed their ac-
quisition a most important stride in
the Advancement of the American ma
ton, commercially and otherwise. lie,
with others. was looking forward to
the prospective partition of the vast
Chinese empire among the European
nations, and he furesaw that If the
United States did not secure a footing
In the Orient such as they have an op-
portunity to secure they would be
most efrac.u2lly and forever shut out
from the vast market.
Those who are familiar with the
Ilews of the president say that he has
urged an early vote, upon the ground
that nothing is to be lost and every
thing is to be gained by prompt ac-
tlon.

Patients In the Free Hospitals.
London, Jan. 26.-The Vienna corre-

injected the baccili of an infectious
disease from a dacomposing corpse into
81 women and three new born children.
In another case a youth who was on
the high road to recovery was inocu-
lated. and he died within "a hours.
Many dying patients have been tor
tureo by poisonous germs and many
men have been inoculated with con-
taEious diseases. One doctor who had
received an unlimited number of
healthy children from foundling hos
rital for experimental purposes excused
himself on the ground that they we're
