A RECENT inspection OF the prisons
in Havana and other cities OF Cuba hae
developed the fact that the condition
of those prisons is as bad now as it ever
was under Spanish rule, though the
American government has been in COZ
troll there nearly two years. After
while, the people of this country may
possibly conceive the idea that they
have been egregiously deceived by self
interested men about the whole Cuban

BOARD OF DEVELOPMENT.

Inc D0aru OF development OF Alex
andria county held another lively ses-
sion yesterday afternoon at the roorl
of the Washington Board of Trade.
The subject under discussion was thu
question of the bond issue of $3.50, 900
for the improvement of the roads of the
county. Nearly every one there dc =
clared himself favorable to good roads,
but the majority were against the act
providing for q popular election Cd
February H.. when the bond question
will be submitted to the voters o; the
county. Many declared that the bill
had been rsilroaded through the legis-
lature, and that it placed too much
power in the hands OF the three road
sup. rvisors. The supplemental bill.
which has been proposed since the fight
on the bonds became so bitter, may
save the day for the improvement OF
the roads, but it will have to be sub
jected to the closest scrutiny on the
part of the public.
A M. Lothrop, president of the
board, was chosen chairman of the
meeting. Charles 1. Simms proposed
that the supplemental, or companion
bill, be read before any action was
taken. Objection was made to this by
Mr.. George Kearney, but the point was
carried In favor of the reading of the
new bill.
G. N. Saegmuller, chairman of the
board OF road supervisors, led the fight
in behalf OF the bond issue, and Angus
tus Davis was champion for the other
side. Each had plenty of supporters,
for nearly every one present made one
or more speeches. The fight started
over the proposal TO read the new bill,
and several declared that it was merely
an attempt to take up time to avoid o
vote of the board on the question at is
sue.
Mr.. j.. Z. Clements then read the
new bill. 1t provides among other
things for the apportonment of the
money raised by road districts. Jsffer-
son gets $50, 900, Arlington gets 10000
and Washington district gets $40, 900 OF
the total of $4,000. At the close of
the reading there WAS an attempt to
shut of debate, but Mr.. Lothrop, the
chairman, said that the question should
be fully discussed.
Speeches and queries then followed
in rapid succession. A. J. Wedderburn
asked that the minority report of the
committee be laid on the table. Then
followed tilt with hot words between
Messrs Wedderburn and Davis, and
they were quieted by protest from 9th.
ers present. Mr.. Davis then asked for
a ruling from the chair, who stated that
full discussion was proper. A. B. Hines
thereupCn called Mr.. Davis an inter
loper, and intimated that he had been
dominating the board long enough
This created stir, which Chairman
Lothrop blandly quoted.
Then followed speeches and resolt
tons being offered and withdrawn.
Supervisor d. N. Rust made a shol
speech condemning the old bill. After
several speeches it was decided to leave
the new bill in the hands of commit
tee of eight, four on each side, and let
them draft q measure and submit it to
the board at their earliest opportunity.
The chair announced that he would
name the committee as soon as possible
and the board adjourned.

Nobska, Mass, Jan. 23.-Two large
steamers, the Herman Winter and the
British steamer Ardandhu. which plies
between Halifax and West Indian
ports, were 10 collision 10 Vineyard
Sound early this morning. The Ardsnd-
hu sank. The collision was due to
the dense fog which has hung over the
sea for some days. The sea is com.
paratively smooth, and it is likely that
no difficulty will be experienced by the
crew Of either vessel in saving them
selves.
Boston, Jan. 23.-Advices from the
scene of the wreck report that the Ar
dandhu went down stern first. Her
bow remains out of water. No sign of
life has bsen seen near the wreck since
daylight. 1t is reported that two Of
the crew of the Ardandhu were drown
ed. The others were picked up by the
Winter.
Vineyard Haven, Mass, Jan. o.
The Herman Winter, which sank the
ArdaDGhu, of Robinson's Hole, Vine
yard Sound, has arrived here. She
had on board all but two of the Ardand-
hu's crew of 81 men. Thetwo men were
lost. They were Chief Engineer James
Henderson, of Glasgow, and second
mate Fred Dove, of Boston. The
Winter struck the Brtisher amidship,
cutting her down almost to the water
line. The watertight compartments
kept the Ardandhu ahoat for some
time, during which the Ardandhu's
crew were transferred to the Winter.
In the excitement Henderson and
DOVE, who were below, were over
loo ked and went down with the ship.
III Winter had her bows smashed in
but her collision bulkheads prevented
htr from sinking.

Capt. A. M. Willard arrived Saturday
evening from Colorado, In answer to a
telegram informing him Of the serious
illness of his wife. Owing TO pressing
business engagements his stay here was
cut short, and he was obliged to return
to Colorado Wednesday. Speaking Of
politics in the Centennial state Mr..
Willard says, the business men and
miners talk very confidently Of carry
ing Colorado for the republican ticket
this fall. AS a straw he cited the change
of sentiment in his own precinct, Gil
pin, which four years ago cast 100 votes
for Bryan and s for Mckinley. This
year the precinct will give a majority
for Mckinley OF not less than so. This
change Of sentiment exists all over the
state in a more or less degree, including
Denver, which four years ago was the
hotbeG Of free silver. Mr.. Willard says
there are no idle men in Colorado, wages
are good, and the Centennial state was
never in n more prosperous condition
than it is at the present time.
