HAVANA, May 1S.-Gen. Wood says

There is nothing 70 show that any such
counterfeit has been sent. 1t is believed

the amount Of the defalcation will fall

ALTGELD
Principal Speaker at Democratic Mass
 Meeting

Chicago, October 2S.-Former Governor John P. Altgeld was the principal speaker tonight at Democratic mass meeting at the Auditorium The meeting was one of a series to be held during the final two weeks of the campaign in Chicago, and the great hall was packed to the doors. Cover nor Altgeld devoted most of his time to a discussion of the Philippine question and bitterly denounced the policy in regard to those islands.
 '4The patriotic intelligence of America is today against the Mckinley administra- tion" said Governor Altgeld, "the men are today heading that party, which was once headed by the mighty Lincoln, are depend- ing on crime to perpetuate their power. There are only two principles known in the government of nations, one is brute force, the other is the consent of the gov erned. And our flag in the Philippines is standing, not for our system of govern ment, but for the same conditions that
 prevailed there under Spanish rule for three hundred years"
 Governor Altgsld read a letter from a
 private soldier in Troop G, Eleventh U. s. Cavalry, in the Philippines, in which the latter told of the killing of women and children attending a wedding party dur ing successful effort to capture a Filipino general.

Reaflrned by the Southwestern Rail-
 roads

St. Louis, Mo, October 23.-Al1 railroad lines west and southwest of the Mississippi river, comprising about 13O,0OO miles of trackage, took action today on the pass agreement for the coming year General Manager Howard Elliott of the Burlington was in the chair, and all lines were repre- scented.

 preciated-Hobson Joins

I've want Admiral Sampson to come to Birmingham and see what an exceedingly warm welcome a Southern city would give him." said Col J. M. Falkner, president of the Alabama Fair Association yesterday af- ternoon. I've want him to know our people love the great men of the country, whether they be of the North or of the South, and that whatever opinions individuals may hold with reference to controversial sub jects generally, his services to his country in times of trouble are recognized and ap- preciated.. We want him to come to Bir- mingham during the State Fair, and will urge him to do SOL
 Colonel Falkner yesterday wired Admiral Sampson an invitation to come to Birming ham as the guest of the Alabama Fair As sociation during the State Fair. While no special date was suggested for his coming, it is believed that if he consents to do so he will be here on Wheeler and Hobson Day.
 Col w. B. Catchings. one of the leading and most progressive business men of the city, yesterday morning suggested to Colonel Falkner that an invitation be ex- tended to Admiral Sampson, and the sug- gestion was at once accepted and acted upon. Colonel Fallkner, in addition to wir- ing Admiral Sampson, wired Lieut.. Rich mond Pearson Hobson to telegraph in the name of the Fair Association an invitation to the admiral and to urge him to come.
 Admiral Sampson is now in Boston, where he has been for several months with his family His health is reported to be very unsatisfactory, and trip to the South at this time would no doubt prove beneficial.
 All of Birmingham will join Colonel Falkner and the Alabama Fair Association in the hope that the distinguished admiral will accept the invitation extended him by Colonel Falkner.

It says:
 ''The answer to such a question will prob- ably be that Germany and Great Britain have not yet reached decision on that point, but intend to decide only after a seizure shall have occurred, since the de- cision must depend upon the interests in yoIYed"
