words of praise for the officers and
men who participated in the Culebra
maneuvers. He expressed his pleas
ure Of having been in command OF
such feet. which he said. was the
most powerful ever assembled in the
Caribbean. The maneuvers. he de-
clared. had served the purpose for
which they had been planned. AL
though preparations for the maneuv

LEGISLATURE.
House Voted to Seat All Arapa.

Chances Have Gone
Glimmering.
Special to The Sentinel.

oPOSAoA w l. hO h,ChuAhol.
Denver. Colo. January I9-
The house committee on contests
have returned three reports Brecl-
enridge. the chairman and three of
the other republican members. favor
the unseating of seven democratic
members. the four floats of Arapahoe.
two representatives from Las Animas
and one Arapahoe member. and seat
republicans in their stead.
The minority report from the com
mittee of the democratic members. :
favor democrats retaining their seats.
The report of the republican minor
ity of the committee favors the un-
seating of democrats from Arapa-
hoe. with Arapahoe floats. Also the
Las Animas member.
A vote was taken on the minority
republican report made by Whinnery.
The result of the vote was twenty for
and forty three against There were
two members absent from the house.
The house i, now voting on the
democratic minority report, beginning
ON the Sam Belford contest from Ara
pahoe. The senate is killing time
waiting the action Of the house.
The democratic senators openly
say that they do not care what the
evidence or the equity in the case
may be. their votes will be cast Who'll
ly in spirit of party retaliation for
anything arbitrarily done by the
house. The case of Senator Horace
L. DeLong was continued from two
O'Clock Sunday to nine this morning
The only evidence thus far brought
against the seat occupied by Senator
DeLong is the affidavit of Porter B.
Plumb Of Delta. which in effect states
that the Paonia district of Delta
county had thousand democrats who
could not vote. because not sufficient
ballots had been provided.
The DeLong affidavits filed in re-
buttal were mostly from Mesa county
democrats. They were James w.
Bucklin. M NJ. Shores. L. M Miller.
w. S. Wallace and d. T. Stone. show
lIlR ldlT eieCblOu III MeStt COUNTY.
Sam B. Belford has been seated
The indications are that the II Arapa-
hoes will be seated. Also that the
float democrats from Arapahoe will be
unse ated. with two democratic repre-
sentatives from Las Animas. Then
the float republicans from Arapahoe
and the two republican representa-
tive, from Las Animas will be seated.
This then makes six democrats un-
seated and six republican, seated. In
all probability the senate will retail
ate.
Special to The Sentinel.
House just voted to seat all AraDa'
hoes. One float may be seated.
Garcia. Riley and Sanchez voted
with the democrats.
From present indications they will
hold the balance of power and will
cast their votes for Alva Adams for
Senator.
Wolcott's chances seem to have
gone glimmering.

BLIND TIGERS IN INDIANA.
temperance People of the Hoosier
State Have Found No Adequate
Way to Cope with Them.

The temperance people of southern
Indiana, who have succeeded in driv-
Ing the saloons out of several of the
most important county seats and near
ly all the smaller towns, are worried
by the appearance of blind tigers and
by the fact that they can find no way
to suppress them.
The blind tigers are conducted in
wagons and have government licenses.
There is nothing in sight but small
boxl1ke arrangement, which is at
tached to the end of board, and this
can be seen only when the back cur
tain to the wagon is raised.
Another curtain hangs between the
purchaser and the man on the inside.
When the money is placed in the box
1t is drawn back by an unseen hand
and bottle of whisky is pushed out.
No one has ever seen anybody in the
wagons, and when called before the
grand jury those who have been known
to purchase liquor have stated that
they did not know from whom they
got it. They have not attempted to
conceal the fact that they purchased
liquor; in fact, they have boosted that
they had found a way of getting
around the law, but no evidence has
been secured that would Justify an
arrest.
