OUT OF THEIR OWN MOUTHS.
The Unjust Warfare on American
Meats in Germany IL Con-
demned.

Berlin, March 27.-The meat inspec-
ton bill agitation has been renewed.
The German National Society of Deal
ers in American Meats publishes d
statement vigorously refuting the
agrarian argument. 1t says:
"The first attacks were directed
against canned meats, which, owing to
the high temperature of boiling were
proved harmless. The next attacks
upon American pork and sau-
sages, which, it was claimed, were
trichinous, but a prize of 1000 marks
offered for proof of a single American
last of trichinous pork is still I'M
claimed. 1t has been officially demoh-
strated that since 1882 not a single
cast of American trichinous pork as
appeared in Germany"
Herr Bielhaben, the anti-semite, and
other agrarian leaders, are arranging
a series of mass-meetings in support
of the bill in its present extreme form.
The meetings will be held in all the
leading cities, beginning next Thurs
day, at Hamburg.

From Washington
How a Little Boy Wac Saved.

Washington, D. C.-"When u boy
was about 16 months old he broke out
with a rash which was thought to be
measles. In a few days he had a swell
ing on the left side of his neck and
it was decided to be humps. He was
given medical attendance for about
three weeks when the doctor said it
was scrofula and ordered a salve. He
wanted to lance the sore, but I would
not let him, and continued giving him
medicine for about four months, when
the bunch broke in two places and be-
came a running sore. Three doctors
said it was s~crofula, and each or
dered q blood medicine. A neighbor
told me of q case somewhat like our
baby's which was cured by Hoods
Sarsaparilla. I decided to give It to
my boy and in Q short while his health
improved and his neck healed 50 nice
ly that I stopped giving him the med
icine. The sore broke out again. how.
ever, w~hereupon I again gave him
Hoods Sarsaparilla and its persistent
use has accomplished a complete
cure" MRS. NETTIE CHASE, a z St,

TROUBLE
Trial Of Caleb Powers II
Frankfort.

Frankfort, KY, March 27.-The most
thrilling event of the examining trial
of republican Secretary of State Caleb
Powers occurred Monday afternoon,
shortly after three o'clock, and for o
few minutes is looked as if serious
trouble could not be averted. Judge
George Denny, for the defendant, in
an argument upon the competency Of
Q question, said:
at is perfectly lawful for people to
come here, and to come armed. I came
here several times myself"
He was referring to the crowd that
was present at the mass-meeting held
in the state house yard just prior to
Gov. Goebel's assassination.
Col. Campbell, for the prosecution,
replied that he did not consider it law
full, and was surprised to know that
Mr.. Denny had come armed. Denny
denied having made such a statement.
and said he did not come armed. Camp
bell insisted that he had made the
statement. Both men were very much
excited, and spoke with vehemence
and with arms shaking, commenced 10
advance toward each other.
The courtroom was crowded, and
the audience evidently thought a fight
was on and made a rush for the doors
and windows, people falling over each
other in their wild efforts to get out
of the room. Several policemen and
deputy sheriffs were crying for order,
and Judge Moore was bringing his
gavel down with terrific force and urg-
ing the people to take their seats. AT
ter five or ten minutes of the most eX-
citing scenes since the assassination,
quiet was restored.
Just as soon as the room began to
grow orderly, eX-Gov. Brown, n OF
the attorneys for the defense, whis-
pered to Col. Campbell, who promptly
arose and apologized to Denny and to
the court, Judge Denny replying in a
very happy speech. On an inspection
of the record it was found that Col.
Campbell had misconstrued Judge
Denny's statement.
At the conclusion of the examina-
ton of Golden, the commonwealth
rested it's case. 1t was stated, Sunday
night, that Mrs. Golden would also be
introduced as a witness, but she WAS
not put on the stand. 1t is stated
that she is an unwilling witness.
The attorneys for the defense asked
for an adjournment of court at four
o'clock for the purpose of a confer
ence with the defendant as to the wit
nesses that will be placed on the stand
in his behalf Tuesday. The court ad-
journed for this purpose.

AMERICAN OR AFRICAN RULE !?
Cubnns W i'll Organize an Annexation
Party for Escape from Negro
domination

Santiago de Cuba, March 27.-A
meeting convened by the various poll
teal factions, Sunday evening, with {,
view of effecting an agreement on can
didates for the approaching elections
broke up in a riot. When the time
came for nominating candidates it be-
came apparent that the colored elc.
ment was largely predominant, and
would absolutely control the meeting.
The whites then became personal, and
a fight was started which the police
haG difficulty in suppressing. Ulti-
mately the meeting broke up in dis
order.
Monday many white Cubans an
nounced their intention of organizing
an annexation party. They say they
would prefer the Cuban flag, but they
are not willing to submit to negro con-
troll. -,

SUPREME COURT INVOKED.
Writs Of Habeas Corpus and Cerd-
orari Petitioned For in q
Puerto Rican's Case.
WAS CONVICTED OF VoTIn6 ILLEGALLY.
The Decision of the Court ON the Pc
ton VIII Practically Decide the
Extent to Which the Consultation
of the United States C0vers the
Acquired Territory.

Washington, March 27.-Attorney
Frederick D. Kenny, filed a petition
for writs of habeas corpus and GER
tiorari in the United States supreme
court in a ease which is expected to
decide the constitutionality of the
provisional court established by the
military authorities of Puerto Rico.
The ease is that of Ramon Baez, of the
island, who is serving a term at hard
labor on the chargp of voting illegally
at the municipal election held at fiug-
yama on the 31st of last October.
Baez's last is one of 80, but he is the
only person actually undergoing pun
ishment for the offense charged, sem
tence in the other cases having been
stayed by agreement pending the APP
peal in the Baez case.
The Lawyers Contention.
In his petition Mr.. Kenny takes the
position hat the provisional court
was without jurisdiction to try and
convict the prisoner, saying:
HE was held to answer for an in
famous crime, and was convicted, and
is now restrained of his liberty and
confined at hard labor without a pre-
sentiment or indictment of a grand
jury previously returned against him
this not being a case arising in the
land or naval forces or in the militia
in actual service, either in time of war
Or public danger. The ordinary civil
courts of the territory wherein he was
a resident were open and exercising
their ordinary jurisdiction, and there
in he should have been tried, if at all.
The Specifications.
"He was and is deprived of his lib
erty without due process of law.
He did not enjoy the right to a
tria, by an impartial jury of the dis
trict where the crime vas committed.
HE was tried and convicted of an
offense unknown to the law of the
lane wherein he was a resident"
All this is held to be in contravec-
ton of the constitution of the United
States of which the brief says:
"The Constitution IL Suprense."
"The constitution of the United
States is the supreme law of the land
OF that land which comprehends
territories as we'll as states-terri-
tories outlying and newly acquired,
as well as those of older acquisition
and more ear approach. The sover-
eighty of the United States is cock
tensive with its territory. As broad
and long as that territory may be or
may become, the constitution with
capacious folds ever envelopes it and
whereso 'er it doth prevail the juris-
diction of this court extends to pre-
vent oppression and maintain the
guarantees of personal rights. liber-
ties and immunities against the cxe--
else of despotic power.
The court took the application I'M

Bank Robbers FeiIed.

San Francisco, March 27.-An at
tempt was made between Saturday and
Monday to rob the bank Of Sutro L
Co., the robbers entering the bank by
cutting through the walls of an ad-
joining vacant store and the wall of
the bank. 1t is thought they intended
cutting into the vault of the bank, but
their calculations went wrong. It is
believed the robbers are of the same
gang who attempted to rob the French
bank last week. In neither of the
cases did the robbers seclr r any
money.

THE WAR IN SOUTH AFRICA.
The Escape Of C0mMandant oliver
Throws Cold Water On Brit
ish Enthusiasna.

London. March %, 4 a. m.-The
Beers are having a little good luck.
and are showing some boldness again,
as a raiding party, estimated at 400. is
believed by the British forces at Wa
renton to have crossed the Kimberley
Bic emfontein wagon-road Monday, and
to have headed for Jacobsdal, with
the intention of cutting the railway
ten miles west.
Commandant Olivier appears to have
gotten his five thousand men and %
miles of wagons into rugged country.
where he can make an easy rear guard
defense. Charles Williams, the mill.
tary expert, says:
eff this column gets through sub.
stantially Commandant Olivier will
have carried out the great feat of the
w~ar-seeing that he a every chance
of being ground between the upper
milestone of Lord Roberts army, and
the neither milestone of the broken
Basuto frontier"
He will have done it within so miles
or so of Lord Roberts in strength.
Certainly it looked for a week us
though Lord Roberts held Olivier in
the hollow of his hand. If Olivier gets
through to Kroonstadt with 5000 mel,
il will be an important addition to the
Beers gathering there. His escape is
attributed to the wornout condition
of the British cavalry horses. Lord
Roberts's transport appears to have
been badly dislocated by the loss al
Reit river, before Cronje's surrender
of the wagon train, and in addition
to this the army with which he pur-
poses to advance toward Pretoria is
nearly double that of the earlier rapid
movements.
Ten thousand transport, cavalry and
gun animals are due to arrive at Cape
ports during this and next week.
1t is given out at Cape Town that
Lord Roberts advance may be de,
layed for months. Although such
statements should be received with re-
serve, it seems positive that he intends
to go to Cape Town to meet Lady Rob
erts, who is due to arrive there in ten
days.

table of British losses, showing an az
