CUBAN POLITICS.

Gomez Advocates Palma and Maso
for President and Vice President.
Havana, Aug. 12-Gen. Maxine Co
mez has addressed a letter to the To-
cal committee of the National party in
Havana who had chosen him as a can
didate for the vice presidency. The
communication in part is as follows:
"On hearing what the committee have
done, l hasten to say that 1 must re-
fuse to undertake such office under the
republic. So far as candidates are con-
cerned, I look upon Senior Estrada
Palma and Senior Maso as the best
selections that could be made for the
presidency and vice presidency. Let
all Cubans agree upon this important
matter and Cuba will have a strong
and stable government, entirely fitted
to deal with the external relation IN
which Cuba will have to exist as a
republic"
A movement, backed by a number of
the revolutionary generals, was start
ed some time ago to endeavor to make
Senior Palma as the unanimous choice
of the people for president.
simultaneously offers were made
to Senior Maso, with a view
of persuading him to accept the vice
presidency. 1t is asserted that thus far
Senior Maso has declined to fall in
with this plan, as he relies upon the
negro vote to elect him president.

THE WALL FELL.
Negroes Buried Under Debris, but
Nome Was Killed.

Atlanta, Aug. PA four-story wall,
the ruins of the old No. 1 engine
house on Broad street, just south of
the bridge, which is being cleared
away for new building, came to the
ground without warning this afternoon,
burying five negro workmen. The Won
der is that no one was killed. One OF
the negroes had a severe compound
fracture of the thigh, one had his leg
badly bruised.
The falling walls made little noise
and passers by in the street were not
aware that an accident had occurred
until they saw some of the wounded
men scramble from under the pile of
bricks, plaster and morter. Quickly
large crowd collected, until the streets
in the vicinity were packed, and four
policemen were kept busy holding back
the excited people.
Several days ago gang of work
men began to tear down the old en-
CINE house that had been one of the
landmarks of the city for nearly half
a century. After the roof and interior
of the building had been removed, five
negroes were put to work to pull down
the walls.
Yesterday afternoon the gang had
rope fastened to a wall, a portion of
which had been shaken off. They were
all pulling at the rope. when another
wall to their right suddenly crumbled
and fell over them. The wall was not
very high or they all might have been
killed.
George Johnson and John Greenwood
extricated themselves from the
debris, and they scrambled into the
street covered with dust and bruises.
A few seconds later Tom Smith made
his appearance. BY this time a crowd
had gathered and several white men
ran into the building and dragged out
Shadrack Barrow, who was unable to
walk What caused the wall to tum-
BILE is not known, unless the vibration
of the bricks the men were pulling at
made it fall. The crowd slowly dis
persed, when 1t was ascertained that
no men had been killed. Several ne
groes, late last evening, were still GER
tain that two men were under the de-
bris and they were anxious to get
somebody to dig them out. The con-
tractor doing the work and the men
hurt. said there were only five in the
gang.

UNANIMOUS FOR REDUCTION.
FALL RIVER MANUFACTURERS
AGREE TO THIS IN MEETING.

They Also Discuss Probable Resist
eratives and Prepare 10 Make n
Fight IL Necessary.
Fall River. Mass, Aug. 12.-The Fail
River cotton manufacturers this after
noon at meeting for the purpose OF
discussing the question of wage reduce
ton unanimously voted to reduce
wages to basis of II cents for weav-
ing, the reduction to go into effect Sept.
3. This is about IL per cent. cut, the
present price OF weaving being 1873
cents. The vote was unanimous with
one exception, this man voting against
the reduction only on the question as
to the amount An agreement will be
drawn up for the signatures and will
be passed by the executive committee
of the association,
The manufacturers agreed in the
statement that the only objections Of
fered had to do with the amount and
the time of the reduction, and had
nothing to do with the reduction itself
- 'NAJ lat III NOHhCCllOn
with the meeting was the absence OF
simeon b. Chase, treasurer of the King
Philip mills. and George H. Hills,
treasurer Of the Da~ol mills The King
Philip mills are engaged upon what is
known as fine goods.
In the event of a resistance to the
cut down, matter which has been
talked of more seriously than anything
else in connection with the proposition,
1t is not thought that the fine goods
mills will be asked to assist in the
night in to make the reduc-
tons agreement operative. IL the
reduction is opposed 1t is expected of
course that these mills will aid the
others in other ways.
Representatives of the various labor
organizations in Fall River met di-
rectly after the announcement of the
action of the Manufacturers Associa-
ton, and a meeting of the Textile
council was called for next Thursday
night. At that meeting plan of action
and perhaps of resistance will be
formulated and the matter discussed.
The laborers say they do not believe
the operatives will accept the reduc-
ton. In regard to the adoption of a
sliding scale which was agitated some
time ago 1T is not expected that the
operatives will accept it.
The manufacturers think that the
leaders do not want to appear as ad-
vocating a sliding scale, because II II
fails in experiment the leaders will
come in for a large share of adverse
criticism, but the manufacturers who
advocate a sliding scale say such a
plan Is essential to the contract busi-
ness in ordering goods to be placed on
a safe basis.
The operatives on every hand tonight
talked over the movement of the assoc
citation and the sentiment seemed to be
in favor of resisting.

TO CUT IRELAND,s QUOTA.
Baifour and Chamberlain Say II Has
Over-representatiO

London, Aug. 12.-In the course of
their speeches Saturday at the Union
demonstration at Blenheim, Mr.. Bal
four and Mr.. Chamberlain alluded to
the necessity confronting Parliament
of taking some measures to abate ma
tional obstruction in the House Of
Commons, and referred significantly to
the over representation of Ireland in
Parliament. These have been eagerly
seized upon by the Unionists and the
Union press, which is publishing let
ters and articles explaining how, If
Ireland were only represented in pro-
portion to the other parts of the Unit
ed Kingdom. she would send
to the House OF Commons
about thirty fewer members than
at present. The idea is gaining ground
that the government meditates making
this the principal business of the next
session and that Ireland will get a
sort of compensation by the concession
of a more extended system of local
government.
A section OF the ministerialists has
long urged this reform upon the gov
eminent, but until recently ministers
seemed reluctant to enter upon the diff
ficult task of redistributing parlia-
mentary representation. which might
precipitate another dissolution.
