WANTED THE ISLE OF PINES.
Nicely Was Negotiating for a Little
Kingdom of His Own.

CHICAGO, May A.-The Records Havana
correspondent says: lone Of the fondest
schemes of Charles F. w. Neely was one
that contemplted buying the Isle of Pines,
the island south of Cuba considered by
many to be part of the United States terri
tory according to the treaty of Paris. Neely
started a company here last fall for the
purpose Of securing control of the valuable
part of the island. with the object of col
onizing it as a United States possession.
Interested with him were Major Ladd
treasurer of the island of Cuba General
Chaffee. Major Ducker. Mr. Hake, of Chi
cago, and. 1t is said. many prominent poll
ticians in the United States. Options were
secured on 100000 acres and agents were en-
gagged to make negotiations for the major
portion of the remaining 100000 Neely's
arrest has killed the scheme. The options
expired last week and 200 is forfeited.
1T Is striking coincidence that to-day
General Wood placed two inspectors in
Major Ladd's Office for the examination Of
his accounts. Those inside tell your cor
respondent that this is in accordance with
the investigation In connection with the
North American Trust Company and the
handling of the funds of the island. 1t is
said many government officials here held
stock in the company.
Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
Bristow appointed to-day George R. Buch-
anan disbursing officer of the department
of posts at salary of $1,000 disseminating
the office of superintendent. held by Carter,
whose salary was $500. Disbursements
will be made the same as in the army Only
sH In "surcharged' stamps was found in
the office. No trace was found of Neely's
ledger. which probably has been destroyed
Inspectors discovered to-day a shortage in
Neely's account outside the amount sup
posed to have been taken in stamps. but it
will probably not raise the estimated de-
falcation of 100000 Evidence of Neely's
guilt is accommodating, and probably there
will be several counts against him."

BRooKE's MARRIAGE DECREE.
Catholic Cubans Ask Governor Gen.
eral Wood to Modify 1t.

HAVANA, May A.-Monsignor Donate
Sbarretti. bishop of Havana, accompanied
by a number of priests representing the
clergy and by lay commission represent
ing the lay Catholics of the diocese, have
presented to General Wood petitions signed
by 81. 900 people requesting that the decree
issued by General Brooke while military
governor of Cuba, ordering that only civil
marriages should be considered lawful, may
be so altered as TO allow marriages cele-
brated according to the rites of any re-
ligion to be considered lawful provided a
record of the ceremony Is duly handed in
by the church or religious body for civil
registration within thirty days.
Mgr. Sbarretti delivered an address, in
the course of which he contended that Gen.
Brooke's decree was contrary to the spirit
of religious liberty and TO the freedom of
conscience professed by the American peo-
pie and guaranteed by the treaty of Paris.
''The decree of General Brooke" said the
bishop, created and maintains a useless
conflict between the civil and the ecclesiast-
ical law. and good Catholics must consider
IL an imposition, forcing on them as II does
an empty ceremony. The decree was a
gratuitous attempt TO restrict liberty, and
1t is the direct cause Of embarrassment and
Of increased expense to Catholics when
contracting marriages"
The probability is that the decree will. be
repealed sufficiently to allow the marriage
ceremony to be legally performed by any
clergyman I'm regular orders.
WASHINGTON, May H-Representative
Fitzgerald. of Massachusetts,. to-day intro
duced a resolution reciting that General
Brooke. while governor general of Cuba.
had prohibited ecclesiastical marriages and
ordered that civil marriages be recognized
as the only legal form of contracts for
marriage; that this was violation of the
Constitution and against established GUS
tom, and directing the secretary of war to
revoke the order and to give instructions
for full religious liberation In Cuba while
1t is under the jurisdiction of the United
States

After the short session the Governor came

the matter he would confer with the State
attorney general, probably on Saturday,
on the questions of law raised by cousel
TO his power to grant the requisition pa

was conceded, was vested by the Constitu-
ton in the Governor.

Cuban postal funds. which was to have

documentary proof procured by the War
Department concerning the issue of sur
charged stamps, which were ordered de-
stroyed, comes into his possession, addi-
tional action will be taken against Neely.
WASHINGTON, May 24.-According to
information received from Havana the au-
thorities there are making progress in un-
earthing frauds against the postal reve-
nues. A report has been received from
Special Agents Seybolt and Williams, in
which they charge Neely with not acount-

gregating more than s65,OOO. There are five
counts in this charge against Nicely One

600; one for $500 and one for $500. This
report will be forwarded to the counsel for

AN AGRARIAN MEASURE.


Inc hy8lenic Features Eliminated
from the Meat Inspection Bill.
BERLIN. May A.-The meat inspection
bill, which passed the Reichstag yesterday
In the compromise form, had its essential
hygienic features eliminated owing to the
Agrarian influences at work In the cham
ber. In its final shape 1t contains no pro-
visions for trichinae inspection and none
for the inspection of animals slaughtered
for family use. These were the two strong
est hygienic features of the bill in its orig
inal form. Nevertheless the semi-official
Berlin Corresponding to-day compliments
the majority in the Reichstag, particularly
the moderate Agrarians, on its passage I'm
Its amended form, claiming that hygienic
interests are sufficiently preserved and that
incidentally German agriculturists will de-
rive considerable benefit from the measure
as 1t stands.
On the other hand, the leading Agrarian
organ, the Deutsche Tages Zeitung, fatty
denies that the compromise bill will in any
way aid agriculture, and asserts that the
permission to import salt meats will be
utilized hereafter by the United States to
such an extent as to outweigh the prohibi-
tion Of sausages and canned meats.
The Allgemeine Fleeschertze, which Is
the leading organ of the butchers, contends
that the bill goes to great length I'm favor
ing Agrarian interests, while disregarding
the interests of butchers and consumers.

CHOATE AND LIPTON.
The Ambassador and the sporty Sir
Thomas Make Speeches.

LONDON, May 24.-At a banquet given
this evening at the Hotel Cecil. In London,
to Sir Thomas Upton, Joseph II. Choate,
United States ambassador, presented TO
Sir Thomas the loving cup subscribed for
by the American admirers of the owner Of
the Shamrock. Mr.. Choate, in the course
of the presentation speech, thus summed
up the relations OF England with America:
1--WE are friends. to begin with, and will
always continue so. Yet no one is foolish
enough to suppose that our friendship will
interfere with our rivalry. What we have
got to look to is that our rivalry does not
interfere with our friendship. If the quail
ties exhibited by Sir Thomas Upton could
be brought into all the commercial. ath-
letic and diplomatic controversies of Eng
land and America we might be sure that
the peace which has so long prevailed be-
tween the two countries would not be
broken"
Thomas Liptons sportsmanship Mr..
Choate said: ''This gift, Sir Thomas. car
ries with 1t the good will of thousands OF
Americans who love a gallant champion
and gallant loser, happily united, sir, in
you, who have so nobly borne defeat. We
hope you are ready TO meet us again.
Sir Thomas Upton, who was evidently
much affected, said in the course of his
reply: "The recollection of American kind
ness will remain with me while memory
lasts. I know that to lift their cup have
got to take to Sandy Hook the best and
fastest yacht the world has ever seen. but
1t is not without hope that this rs within
the range of possibilities.
II am well aware that, to produce such
a yacht, the best British brains and mech
anism must be combined. think car
procure 1t. certainly intend to try again
and feel sure that If 1 should have the
good fortune to succeed, the same kindness
and courtesy will be shown to Americans
by Britishers that the Americans are show
ing me when the Americans come over and
attempt to regain the cup. Although the
brotherhood which I have experienced is
more precious than any wealth can com.
mand, hope I am not expected to be con.
tented with this cup" Laughter and ap-
plausel
