BROOKE WILL IGNORE GOMEZ.
Proposes to Handle That 5000 600 Quite
Independently of the Old Chief


| Havana, April 1O.-Yesterday the Gu
ban generals who have elected General
Gomez comander-in-chief were to no.
tify him officially of their action. They
had not done so up to Z o'clock last
evening, but it was reported that he
| was to be waited upon by a committee
during the course of the evening. There
are so many contradictory reports as to
their intentions and doings that the fact
! OF their accomplishing little OF nothing
is beginning to discredit in advance
whatever action they may ultimately
take, which at the best will be merely
ccnferring an honorary distinction as
General Brooke is preparing to handle
the payment Of the Cuban army quite
independently of General Gomez.
Some of the Cuban generals who are
not actively in command of forces met
informally at the Hotel Inglaterra
Friday night and protested against the
action Of the other Cuban generals, de-
claring that .hey, as generals, had as
much right to assist in the deliberations
and to be heard as those in actual COM
mand of forces. The other generals in
sist that only commanders of forces have
right to take action. There is no
doubt Gomez will eventually be REIN
stated.
Secretary of Justice Lanuza will prob
ably not comply with the request of

court, Havana province, to prosecute
General Ludlow, the military governor
for interfering to prevent DR.. Jolliffe

incommunicado as provided by the Span
fsh law" If the matter is brought to
an issue the question will be whether an
American official has right to issue an
order contravening a Spanish law IN
less supported by decree of the govern
or general. Judge Ortiz insists that the
incOmmunicado law is in full force, like
all other Spanish laws which General
Brooks's proclamation Of Jan. affirmed
were to be unchanged. -.-.-.- .-

Tragedy of Judge Terry.


Stephen johnson Field was one of the
Rev. David Dudley Field. New Eng
land clergyman. These brothers were
David Dudley. the great codifier; Cyrus
West, who laid the Atlantic cable. and
Henry Martyr, the distinguished divine
and religious editor. Stephen ]. was
born in Haddam, Conn, in the Berk-
shire hills, Nov. 4. 1916. When he was
Is he went with his sister Emilia, who
had married a missionary. to Smyrna,
for the purpose of acquiring a knowl-
edge of the Oriental languages Upon
his return from the east, at the age of
16, he entered Williams college, from
which institution he was graduated in
1887, standing at the head of his class
Then he entered the law Office of his
brother. David Dudley Field, in New
York, and upon his admission to the bar
he became a partner in the firm.
The gold fever took him to California
in 1S49. There he practiced law, served
in the legislature and in 1857 was elected
Judge of the supreme court of Califor-
mia. His term was to begin in January,
1858, but a vacancy occurring he was ap-
pointed to fill il in October, 1857. When
in September. 1859. Chief Justice David
S Terry resigned. Field succeeded him
ard nlieO tnaI ONCE until appointed TO
the supreme bench as war Democrat
by President Abraham Lincoln in 1869.
In 1850 he was placed in nomination by
his supporters for the presidency at the
Cincinnati convention of the Democrat
ic party, receiving Go votes on the first
ballot In 1864 he received the degree of
IL d. from Williams. In 1863 h was

II n
Senator Sharon. of California, who's
| wife she claimed to be. Terry had acte
| as her counsel in the case and was YER
/ much incensed at Justice Fields de
| cision that the marriage contract pro
| duced by the woman was a forgery. I,
/ Superior Judge Sullivan's court /;
/ favorable verdict had been given to her
| and when Justice Field reversed this
| decision she tried to shoot him in court
and for this was promptly arrested. Ter
ry drew a bowie knife in order to pre-
vent her arrest and both were sent tc
prison.
When they were released they were
desperate and practically demented and
threatened Justice Fields life openly.
His friends warned him that the utmost
caution was necessary on his part, and
accordingly Deputy United States mar
shall Nagle, acting under instructions
from the attorney general of the United
States and Marshal Frank accom-
panied Field wherever he went. At
Lathrop. Cal, while Justice Field was
breakfasting, Terry approached him and
without warning assaulted him from be-
hind Nagle was at hand and very
promptly shot Terry. killing him in
stantly.
OF course this incident caused the
greatest excitement throughout the
country Terry was member of fac
tion in the Democratic party that was
strongly opposed to Field. Nearly ev-
erybody had sustained Field in his ac-
ton in imprisoning Terry for contempt,
and although the utmost regret at Ter
rvs death was generally expressed
Field was relieved of censure. Both
Deputy Marshal Nagie and Justice Field
were arrested, but nothing in the way
of rich
rest. 1t was generally held that there
was at that time an organized con-
spiracy to murder Justice Field.
Personally Justice Field was a most
charming man. His travels in America
were extensive. and he knew much of
life abroad, and his conversation was
most entertaining at all times and on
all topics. He was dignified and courtly
in his bearing. His fringe of hair and
his full beard were of snowy whiteness.
His figure was tall, though slightly
stopped, and his head was unusually
large. He did not look his age, though
he wore spectacles CONSTANTLY. 1t was
his custom to rise with the birds, enjoy
the luxury of cold bath and breakfast
on a cup of tea and a couple of eggs.
He was often at his desk by o'clock.
Throughout his whole life he was a
hard and persistent worker.
Justice Field was not married until
he had passed the 40-year limit by sew
eral years when he wooed and won
Miss Swearingen, the daughter of his
California landlady. She was very
popular in Washington society. Justice
Field served longest on the United
States supreme bench of any of the
illustrious men who have served there,
wearing the ermine for some months
longer than the great Justice John
Marshall.

death came painlessly. Ever since Jus
tice Fields retirement from the SUI
preme court bench on Dec. i, 1893, he
had enjoyed comparatively good health,
and being relieved from the responsi-
bilities which he had borne for so many
years he became more cheerful than

Long Drive Results in Fatal Illness.
All during the winter when the wealth
er was fair, il was his custom to take
daily drives about the city, or through
the grounds of the Soldiers Home. and
he always returned refreshed. About

longer ride than usual in an open car

though but slightly, for some time. The
disease readily yielded to treatment,
and on Thursday last he sat up for
time and seemed quite himself again,
but on Saturday morning change for
the worse took place and about noon he
lost consciousness. From that time he
sank rapidly until he expired.
His Mind Somewhat Impaired.
Justice and Mrs. Field never had any
children, and the only surviving mem
ber of his fathers family is the Justices
younger brother. DR.. Henry Field, edi-
tor of The Evangelist. During several
years prior to his retirement from the
bench the Justices health at times
seemed on the point of breaking. but he
usually recovered promptly and in a
few days would again resume his ju-
diciaI duties. For the past year and
more those most intimate with him
knew that his mental powers were
becoming somewhat impaired. The
result of his long career of great
mental activity were beginning to show
themselves in a falling memory. after
his retirement from the bench, though
his physical health seemed to improve a
little.
