NEGRO UNDER HER BED.

Memphis, Tenn, July 10.-News reached
here Yesterday of the lynching of a negro in
Neshoba county, Miss. f. NJ. Fulton, a
planter, left his home to go to Meridian.
When his fifteen-year-old daughter went to
her room she heard a snore under the bed.
She gave the alarm, and a negro, who for
years had been employed on the place, was
forced to come out. lie confessed that he had
slipped into the room to assault the girl and
had dropped off to sleep before she came in.
Before neighbors could be summoned he
escaped to the woods. lie was pursued all
night and captured about daylight He again
confessed his purpose of assaulting the girl
and was swung TO limb and left hanging.

AS MAY have been expected, prompt
and emphatic denial of the assertions
made in the recent interview of Gen.
FItzhugh Lee concerning conditions IN
Cuba was uttered yesterday by Senior
Ouesada. the Minister to the UnitedStates
from the island republic. Gen. Lee, II
w4 be remembered drew dismal picture
Of he Cuban situation, and predicted that
b. lore long anarchy would sweep over
.i,e island. Senior Que,ada says that is
not true. "Gen. Lee cannot speak from
personal knowledge, said Senior Quesade,
because he has not been in Cuba for
some time. He can only speculate, and
u this particular case he speculates
wi .hout having foundation for his view. "
There can be no doubt among those who
aye observing the signs of the times
mat an indecent haste is manifested by
many representative people in this coun-
try to force Cuba into the American
auion. Senator Elkins is still talking
tho matter up and others are drawing
dismal pictures of the present conditions
nd future prospects of the infant repub-
lic That Cuba is eventually to be-
come part Of the United States was a
f)yegone conclusion from the time the
casus belli was precipitated in 1898
Tie United States never had any other
purpose from the beginning, and sooner
on later issues will arise which viii
cause the better class of Cubans to earn
csily desire annexation. The Uni ed
States, under other conditions, will be
compelled to exercise suzerainty over
.he island, and it will finally be neces-
sUy to make it part of this country in
order to avoid complications with other
nations. Those in this country who are
pushing annexation are, however,
title premature. The island is coming
20 the United States sooner or later. In
the meantime the Palma administration
should by all means be let alone, es-
pecially after all the sound of trumpets
from this country when Cuba was
urned over to the new President.

THE STRIKE IN CHICAGO.

Chicago, July l0.-AIeetings of the
local unions of freight handlers held this
morning resulted in many instances in
the rejecting the terms offered by
the railroads. Whlle tho companies
agree not to discriminate against union
men they refuse to recognize their Organi-
zation or to grant the demands for a
greater increase than was offered in the
first proposal 10 compromise. This re-
fiIsal has angered the strikers. a ma
;ority of them urge fetaliatory measures
and the Incorporate spirits among them
are working the men up to pitch that
does not augur well for peaceable settle
ment. The strikers have also been en-
Outraged by the attitude of the leaders
who defy the wishes of the officers and
threaten to call strike through a special
committee suggested for taking authority
off the officers hands. If the teamsters
mutiny and order strike in defiance of
their officers this action will probably
win the freight handlers strike but tend
to disOrganize the union.

TOWED TO SEA.

New Orleans, July l0.-A party of gentle
men from New Orleans while fishing yester-
day at Ship Island fastened their three boats
together and steadied them with a heavy
anchor. A shark became entangled in the
anchor, carried all three boats out TO sea and
finally wrecked them on the shore. The fish

RUMORED DEATH OF TRACEY.

Seattle, Wash, July 10.--It was rumored
here late last night that Harry Tracy the
escaped bandit, had been killed in the vi
cinify of Seattle, after hard fight with
posse, through the lines of which he tried TO
go, in which he killed deputy sheriff and
wounded several others. At 3 o'clock this

By the death of Ada Gray, so well
koown throughout the country as LADY
isabel' in east Lynne" the assertion
again made that William Jennings
Ryan Is an actor as well as a statesman,
7''dier' lawyer, and editor. 1t appears
that he supported Miss GRAY as "Lord
Mount Severn and that his STAGE name
was "William Jennings" This mart &C
Mr. Bryan's history was brought ont
when he was candidate for the pres;
dency, but it was supposed to have been
a republican canard. Man in his time
pays many parts, and the fact that Mr..
Bryan was at one time in his career an
actor viii not in any manner detract
nom his genius. Shakespeare and Dick
ons were both actors, and no one thinks

MGR. FARLEY FOR ARCHBISHOP. -
On the authority of one of the most
prominent of the prelates of the Roman
Catholic Church it is stated that in few
DAYS the choice of Rt. Rev. John NJ.
Farley as Archbishop of New York will
be made in Rome. The documents in
which the bishops indorse the selection
of Bishop Farley have been received, and
with them also two letters which will
probably have influence with the Pope.
These are said to be letters ofthe strongest
Endorsement Of Bishop Farley written by
Cardinal Gibbons and by Archbishop
Ireland, Those in a position to be well
informed said that the Consistory will be
called together to take up the matter as
soon as the business with the Taa COM
mission has been settled In this the infu-
ence ofthe Archbishop ofSt. Paul has been
manifested, and the fact that he has sent
strong recommendation is another ex-
ample ofhis strength at Rome. Bishop
Sbaretti started 70 the Philippines with
full Authority to act concerning the lands
of the friars. At the suggestion, it is
said of Archbishop Ireland he was re-
called and the American commission
was the result.

Senator Chauncey Depew, the post

constitution providing for suSh pop
uIar election with which no hopes to
kill this reform or n, least delay Il for
q season. His amendment IL 3 sinister
proposition and has been accepted by
the Senate committee having the resp
luton IN charge. Il provides that
''the qualifications Of citizens entitled
10 vote Tor United States Senators and
Representatives in Congress shall be
uniform In ell the States, aud Congress
shall be empowered to enforce this
article by appropriate Legislation, aud
to provide for the registration Of cit

In this proposition At once sectional
and an infringement of the rights Of
the States to determine the qusiiGcs-
tons Of their voters. IL strikes first
at the Southern States, which for The
sake Of good anu intelligent local
government, have placed Restrictions
on the qualifications Of voters that tx
Glade the ignorant aud vicious; then
at the rights of all the States 10 de.
privinE them Of the authority to deter.
mine the qualifications Of voters and
usurping aud oentraliziug this right in
tho National Congress With the con
eomitaut suggestion Of force bills and
the right Of conducting aud certifying
the elections. OF course no Democrat
would vote for The resolution with such
an amendment, and II Il should be
passed by the Senate and eoncurred
in by the House In this shape, II would
never receive the ratification Of the
Legislatures of thrse.iourths of the
States. but the people will continue
to Agitsts this question until tho Sen
ate does agree to al amendment to
give TO the States unresorVedly the
right to elect their Senators by direct
