REFUSES TO RESIGN.
Edgar Maclay Declines to Aecede
b Roosevelt's Request.
MAKES FORMAL DEMAND FOR TRIAL.


New York, Dee. 24.-Edgar Stanton
Maclay, whose connection with the
Schley case led President Roosevelt
to request his resignation as special
laborer in the navy, made formal de-
mand yesterday for trial by usual
naval procedure. He averred that his
case came under the civil service law
and that he could not be dismissed
without formal charges, trial and
conviction. The request for his resig-
nation was sent to him by Rear Ad-
miral Barker, commander of the
navy yard at Brooklyn, and he re-
piled at once by letter, formally set
ting forth his position.
Discussing the case, Maclay said:
"The president cannot have me dis
missed under the law, as | see it.
do not see how he can force me out.
| am protected by the civil service
laws enacted by the congress, whose
|enactments the president is bound to
execute. do not know positively,
but | believe my position under the
civil service furnishes me complete
protection so long as | violate no
rules of the service, and that | have
not done, and that | have so stated
in my letter to the commandant in
answer to the request for my resig-
nation. No, | did not say that the
president is as bad as the ear of
Russia. | have done nothing more
than write the commandant and ask
that charges be preferred against
me, and | will do nothing more Just
now. have not been suspended and
am working here to-day, as | have
been doing for 10 months. have
tried TO do my duty here and have
broken no rules and shall simply
stand by my rights. more for the
principle OF the matter than ANYTHING
else. for my position here PAYS me

DECREASE IN LIVE STOCK.
Secretary Of the Missouri Board Of Agra-
culture Gives Out Interesting statis-
tics-Wheat and Corr.

Columbia, NO., Dec. 21.-George B.
Ellis, secretary of the Missouri state
board of agriculture, points to the
fact that there has been general de-
crease in the number of all kinds OF
live stock in the state. The decrease
in horses is 10 per cent; of cattle, oil
classes, 80 per cent. Of fattening cat
tie, 70 per cent; Of hogs, all classes,
36 per cent; fattening hogs, IS per
cent, and sheep, 81 per cent
The final estimate of the corn yield
made in November showed an average
yield for the state OF SO bushels an
acre. This indicates total yield for
the state of 61,667O00 bushels. The
quality, however, is very inferior, as
much is worm-eaten, light and rotten
corn, grading on an average of As
per cent. This would bring the total
yield down to feeding value of only
27,750,00O bushels. In 1900 the corn
acreage was 6,4l3,000, the yield was
30 bushels to the acre and the total
yield was 1872, 100000 bushels. In 1900
the wheat acreage was 100000, the
average yield was 16 bushels to the
acre and the total yield was 100000
bushels; il 1901 the wheat acreage
was 100000, with the same yield
average of l6 bushels to the acre and
total yield of ~ ooo bushels. 1t
is estimated tn wheat acreage
for 1902 is an Afor of "a per cent.
over 1900. The Y increase is in
the southwest sNs pf the state,
where the acreage is'tEk per cent. or
nearly double that of Y year. The
condition of the wheat Top at this
time is generally good.

WHAT THE CUBANS WANT
ARRIVAL OF THE DELEGATION AT
WASHINGTON.
win Ask That Cuban Sugar and To-
bacco Come i'm Free-The Subject of
Coaling Stations.

WASHINGTON, April 24.-The COM
mission of five delegates to the Cuban
Constitutional Convention, consisting
of Domingo Mendez Capote, Pedro ID.
Betancourt, Rafael M. PortIundo, Diego
Tamayo and Pedro Gonzales LlUrente,
who were sent to Washington to confer
with the President regarding cuban lc-
lations with this country, arrived mere
this moring. They were met at the
station by Assistant Secretary of State
Hill, Assistant Secretary of War San
ger, Caption Sawtelle and Lieutenant
Overton of the United States Army and
escorted to the Shoreham. Arrange
ments have been made at the War De-
partment to meet the delegation at IL
o'clock tomorrow morning and prob
ably escort them to the White House
about that time.
Governor General Wood of Cuba also
arrived this morning with his family
and took apartments at the Richmond.
Later he had a conference at the War
Department with Assistant Secretary
Sanger. He sent his secretary to call
on the Cuban delegation to ascertain
their desires for the day in order that
he might be able to act as their escort.
General Wood reached the War De-
partment shortly after S o'clock and
after a brief talk with Adjutant-Ger-
eral Corbin, was shown into Secretary
Roots office, where conference res
pecting Cuban affairs lasting three
hours was held. Senator Plat of Con-
necticut chairman of the committee
charged with the care of Cuban affairs,
was present, as also were Assistant Sc
cretary Sanger and Admiral Bradford,
Chief of the Bureau of Equipment,
Navy Department. The latter's pres
ence was desired, as the location of
coaling stations in Cuba Is to be made
1,i M a
1t is understood that General Wood
entered at once into a thorough expo
sition of the complicated Cuban stu
alton He was perfectly informed as
to the desires of the visiting commits
sion, and appraised Secretary Root of
the nature of their errand. 1t is gath
cred that next to the subjects of coaing
stations and the right of the United
States to intervene in Cuba in the in
terests of peace and order, the Cubans
attach most interest to the subject of
sugar duties. The commission is try
ing to secure a remission of the United
States duty on Cuban sugar. 1t is sug
gested that if this cannot be done at
once, then the duty may be removed
gradually. a percentage each year until
the sugar is duty free. The President
cannot grant this request, as 1t involves
a change in the tariff laws, and there
fore application must be had to Con-
gress. This may take the shape of di-
rect joint legislation by the two houses,
or it can be accomplished by the nego-
tiation of a reciprocity treaty. The
Cubans, it is believed, prefer the latter
form.
Tobacco too, is another subject which
the Secretary of War will be obliged to
discuss with the commissioners, and on
that point he wanted advice The Gu
bans are extremely DESTROYS of securing
a considerable abatement in favor of
their own tobacco of the extremely high
tariff imposed by the Dingley act upon
all imported tobaccOS
