MORE SALOON SMASHING
The Preachers and Women of Kansas
Keep the Work Going.

Arkansas City. Kans., February 16.-
Seventy men. led by the ministers Of
this city, crossed the Arkansas river
today and demolished Last Chance"
saloon. All the joints here had been
closed for several days. but the Last
Chance being outside the city limits,
it's proprietor continued to do -four
ishing business. When the crow6
swept down upon the place today the
bar tender was asleep. He was back
ed into a corner at revolverS point
and witnessed the complete demolition
of the fixtures and stock.
Perry, Kans., February 16.-Fifteen
prominent women, led by the wives Of
a Methodist minister and a bank cash
ier, raided several 'ioints" here last
night. With hatchets and axes they
demolished fixtures right and left, en-
failing a loss in one particular saloon
alone of more than $1,000.
Twenty whiskey barrels and sixty
two kegs and twenty cases of beer
were carried into the street. where they
were chopped into kindling wood, and
their contents flowed away into the
cutters.
A drug store was the last place Wis
tied. The proprietor was accused of
quenching the thirst of local inebri-
ates and his stock was quickly destroy
ed. In striking at the shelves with a
hatchet, one of the women accidentally
struck bottle of caTbonic acid. The
fluid bespattered her clothing and
hands, burning here quite severely.
Winfield. Kans., February 16.-Intense
i'll feeling, aroused here by the recent
destruction Of the Joints" and which
led to dozens Of street fights and the
arming Of many citizens for self-pro-
lection, apparently has died out.
"Jointists" are removing what Is lett
of their property to places Of safety,
but insist on remaining in the city.
Their action may. it Is feared, start the
trouble fresh.

Action of the Southern Cotton Spin
nerS' Association.

Charlotte, n. c., February 16-Four
hundred and fifty thousands spindles
were represented at the meeting of the
Southern Cotton Spinners' Association
held in this city today.
The meeting was called for the ex-
press purpose of effecting a curtail-
ment in the production of cotton yarns,
from March 1st, the production will be
reduced very considerably. This will
be done by a shut down of night
work, as provided for in the following
resolution which was unanimously
adopted:
Resolved, That we recommend all
mills to stop night work entirely for
four months, beginning March 1, 1901
and that mills running daylight only,
stop one day in every week. beginning
March 1st. At the expiration of sixty
days from March 1, mills stopping night
ments made herein for mills running
day time only"
DR.. John McAden president of the
association says that the action insures
a reduction of fifty per cent.
Leonard Paulson, of Buckingham,
Paulson & Co., was the only northern
commission man present. He made a
speech in which he said the market is
dull and prices only nominal. In the
hands of commission merchants, he
said. there are yarns sufficient to last,
certainly for sixty days and probably
four months. He thought the action
taken by the meeting would have a
good effect.
President McAden, speaking of the
meeting said that the thousands of
mill operatives that would be immedi-
ately affected by the partial shut down
would received the special considera-
ton and care of their employers. The
night shifts will not be allowed to
suffer. and all operatives will be given
just as much work as is possible, under
the circumstances.

THE FIRST SERIOUS HITCH
IN SETTLING STATUS OF OUR RE-
lATl0NS WITH CUBAN REPUBLIC
Strong Opposition by Cubans to Estab-
lishment OF United states Naval Sta
rionS on the Island-The Conventions
Committee In Conference With Gov
ernor General wood-Other classes
Of the Agreement about settled.

Havana, February 16.-The special
commission appointed by the Cuban
constitutional convention to draw up. a
proposition, defining the future rela-
tions between the United States and
the republic of Cuba, have returned
from conference with Governor Gen
efal Wood at Batabano and will report
to the convention in secret session.
The question of the United States
maintaining naval stations in Cuba met
with strong opposition, and the COM
mission will report to the convention
not to accept this condition. The other
clauses in the proposed relations have
practically been agreed to.
The Cuban constitutional convention
held secret session, lasting several
hours, this afternoon considering the
question of the future relations between
the United States and the republic of
Cuba. The commission which met Gov
ernor General Wood at BatabaEo last
night offered no formal report, but ask
ed that the matter be considered in
committee of the whole.
A majority of the delegates opposed
the granting to the United States OF
the right to maintain naval stations in
Cuba, and a large number favored leav-
ing the relations between the United
States and Cuba for the future repub-
lie to settle.
The right of the United States to in
tervene at any time for the preserva-
tion Of peace was also the subject of a
strong discussion. The questions of
regulating loans and the foreign rela-
tions developed no opposition.
One of the delegates, in the couse
of an interview, said that the conven-
tfon would never agree to allow the
United States to establish and main
tain naval stations, as the people look
upon this concession as unpatriotic
and practical giving up of their inde-
pendence. The only way the United
States can obtain this right, the dele
gate said, would be by insisting upon
the concession, the responsibility for
making which the convention does not
want to take.

A CHASTITY DISCOVERY.
Dead Bodies of Husband and Wife
Found in their Home.

Crescent, Fla, February 16.-Dr. w.
L. Mcleod and his wife were found
dead in their residence this morning.
The evidence disclosed that Mcleod
had killed his wife and then himself.
Neither of the couple had been seen
since last Saturday, when Mrs. Mcleod
was visiting members Of her church re-
garding some religious work
For the first several days it was be-
lieved that the couple had left on a Wis
it to Mr.. McLeod's sister, who was re-
ported to be ill. The failure of any
one to know about their departure,
however, and their continued absence
led to an investigation today by the
mayor and sheriff.
The bodies were found in the bed
room, undressed, and two bulle,
wounds, both mortal, had been infiict-
ed on Mrs. Mcleod. Her husband then
fired the third bullet through his own
brain and held the pistol In his hand.
Mrs. Mcleod had first been shot in
bed and then on the floor as she kneel-
ed before him. 1t is believed the trag'
edy occurred last Saturday night.
DR.. Mcleod had been drinking on
Saturday. He was prominent citizen
and ex-city official.

further stated that governor Roosevelt
killed the largest lion that has been
killed in this section. weighing 227 lbs.
and measuring 81 feet in the flesh. Mr..
Golf states that governor Roosevelt

of the hunt occurred when governor

In order to get shot the governor
leaned the larger portion Of his weie
ty body over a cliff forty feet high. Golf
held him by the leg. The governoe
brought down his game with the first
shot.

CHINA,S REPLY.
Consents to only two Executions-The
Foreign ENJOYS Not Satisfied.

Pekin, February ia message was
fore the meeting this morning from the
Chinese peace commissioners which
contained the wording of an edict, dated
yesterday. practically reiterating the
recent dispatches of the Associated
Press, sentencing Princess Chung to
commit suicide and Yu Hsien forlner
governor of the province of Shan SD,
to be executed both in the presence
of a high government official in order
to satisfy the foreigners.
Chi Hsiu and Hin Cheng Yu Will have
their cases investigated by Ii Hung
Chang and Prince Ching, whose report
the emperor will take before execution
is pronounced. General Tung Flu Slang
is deprived of his rank and will re-
ceive further punishment afterwards
prisoned.
Sentence of death is suspend
ed on those culprits who are
already dead and all their
honors are Cancelled, although the post
humous honors are granted to their
families.
Owing to the lateness of the hous at
which the translation was made the
ministers did not consider the matter
this morning. leaving it until Monday
but they scarcely consider this repetf-
ton of the edict a proper answer 10
their demands. as it means only one
head instead of those demanded Still,
they think that after the Chinese new
year. if insistence is made, the reply
will be as requested.
The ministers have considered the
plans for a legation settlement with
Notifications. and also the question of
indemnities. They have decided that
the jurisdiction at present held COW
cred only the local losses Of citizens and
that the home governments must an
nounce the expenses of their respective
military expeditions.
