LIKELY TO BE POSTPONED.
Illness of Counsel Will Delay Trial
of Brooks Murder Case.

1t is probable that the trial of Henry
Brooks, the slayer of Policeman Fender,
which had been assigned for the Superior
Court to-day, will be postponed. If this
is done it will be because of the illness
of Judge H. d. d. Twiggs, leading coun-
| sci for defendant
Judge Paul E. Seabrook of the Atlantic
Circuit had been requested, on account
of the illness Of Judge Falligant, to pre-
side at the trial, had accepted and will
| be in the city this morning Solicitor
General Osborne, who had been viewing
the Inauguration spectacles at Washing
ton, and was making some further stay
at the North had cut short his trip and
| hurried back to Savannah for the special
purpose of trying this case.
The jury had been drawn and sum-
moned to appear this morning and the
same thing applied to the numerous wit
nessee in the case, both for the state and
for the defendant. The defendants wit
nesses had ben subpoenaed at the in
stance of Messrs. A d. Harden and G.
H Edwards, who until yesterday, had
been under the impression that, by APP
pointment of the court. they represented
Brooks. In the meantime however,
Brooks or his friends had employed
Messrs. Twiggs & Oliver, and his former
counsel threw up the case in some dis
gust.
Judge Twiggs is reported to be con-
fined to his bed with an attack of the
grip and it is not believed he will be well
enough this morning to begin the trial
of the case. This will be a source of
some expense to the court, and of an
noyance to Judge Seabrook and Mr.. Os-
borne, but under the circumstances, of
course. the postponement could not well
be prevented.
There are some other criminal cases to
be tried during the remainder of this
week or that rather, have been assigned
for trial, and it is possible, should Judge
Faligant's present indisposition continue,
that Judge Seabrook will remain in the
city and preside.

WILL NINE THE LEAD.
Damage to Fertilizer Works VIII
Amount TO Over $4,000.

Amount 10 Over $4,000.
The damage by fire and water to the
plant of the Virginia. Carolina Chemical
Company has been fixed at something like
$4,000. The work of rebuilding the acid
chamber and repairing warehouse No.
will be begun Immediately The damage
to the acid and contents of the ware
house was fixed at $4,000 on Friday, as
stated in the Morning News.
The adjusters completed their work
yesterday morning, and allowed
$1,000 for the destruction of
the acid chamber. The lead
used I'm this building, however, will be
taken out Of the ground. and it is esti-
mated that 1t will be worth nearly ST.. 600
Work of mining the metal was begun
Yesterday, and the amount realized from
the lead will be deducted from the sum
named by the insurance adjusters. This
will make the loss about $4,000, much
smaller sum than was at first named.
The Chemical Company will lose no time
in erecting a new plant. and Mr.. H. Bor-
den left yesterday for Richmond to have
plans drawn for the new acid chamber.
As soon as the plans have been drawn
bids will be called for. and the work will
be commenced at once. In the meantime.
workmen are engaged in digging the lead
that was used In the acid chamber, and
this work will occupy several weeks.

CUBA GETS IT BACK.
Action on Platt Amendment Dis
tasteful to Administration.
interpretation Placed Upon the
Document BY the Cuban COnstitu-
tfOnaI Convention Have Raised
a Serious Issue.

Washington, June 1.-The admins
tration has decided that the action
of the Cuban constitutional cOnven-
ton In accepting the terms Of the
Platt amendment with notifications
and interpretations of their own was
not "substantiaI' compliance with our
amendment and Secretary Root will
convey this intelligence to the con-
vention. The decision was reached at
the cabinet meeting Friday.
At the cabinet meeting Secretary
Root took the position that the in
terpretatiOns of the Platt amendment
contained in the constitution adopted
by the convention and the whereases
appended to it, went outside of a fair
Interpretation of its meaning and was
unacceptable. In this view the cabi-
net concurred. When asked as to
what would be the next step of the
government after the Cuban cOnven-
ton had been notified of the rejection
of its action, one of the members of
the cabinet said that the government
could do nothing further until the
convention again acted; that as long
dS Tic COAANAllOllS VI NAAC Il AcLbS eAAAADAANA
ment were on the statute books com
pliance with them must precede our
REIMBURSEMENT of control over the is
land.
There is a great deal of addenda in
the way of explanation and interpre-
tation in the report of the committee
on relations which has been adopted
at Havana, that is wholly unsatisfac-
tory to the president and also to those
who have been consulting with him,
but there is an earnest desire to reach
the best possible results. One of the
most Objectionable features of the in
depreciation is the addition of the
words saying that the action of the
United States is an application of
the Monroe doctrine. 1t is emphati-
calIy stated by some of those who
have been present at the conferences
that the Monroe doctrine has nothing
whatever to do with the present situa-
ton in Cuba.
Must substantially" Adopt 1t.
Washington, June at is officially
stated that the United States viii re-
main in control in Cuba until the
Platt amendment has been ''sUbstan-
tally adopted. This was made known
to Gen. Wood by Secretary Root.

PROTESTS his INNOCENCE.
William KIusmIer, Suspected OF Numbering
His Wife at HOItOn, Kan, Is in
Jail at Topeka.

Topeka, Kan, June William
KIusmier, the accused wife-mUrderer
of HOIton, is lodged in the county Jail
in this city. He is held here await
ing the wishes of the Jackson county
authorities. Officers brought Klus-
mier up from Kansas City, where he
was arrested by the police of that
city. KIusmier stOutly insists that his
wife committed suicide. He says in
explanation of the marks and bruises
on her head and breast that these were
received as he carried her out of the
barn and into the field. His children
are the apple of his eye and he seems
to care more for the disgrace that has
come to his children than for the ter
ribIe charges that he had to face. His
face lit up when they were spoken
about as having been seen lately.
THE children hated her; she was
mean to them; she hated them" Then
he drifted oft to tell of his wife's
traits. He gave her an ugly character.
Klusmier said his wife did not carry
a cent of insurance on her life.
