Dinner of Southern society.

Three hundred and fifty sons of the
South gathered in the main ballroom of
the Waldorf-Astoria in New York last
night at the nineteenth annual dinner of
the Southern Society of New York, and
the boxes were filled with ladies, the
relatives and guests of the diners. En-
thusiasm was aroused by the playing OF
Southern airs, the diners rising to theig
feet aud cheering wildly when "My
Maryland" and "Dixie" were played.
Among those at the guests table with
President Harrison, who presided, were
Mayor Mcclellan, who responded to the
roast, "The City of New York; Col.
Robert Bingham, of Asheville, n. c..
who told of THE Past Status of the
South, the Decadence of that Status,
and It's Restoration" Georges Graham

1t stands for tariff for revenue only, and
not robbery or extortion. There are
many things like these which the South

main solid"
Mayor Mcclellan in his speech said,
in part: "You people of the South
century ago fought for your ideals, aud
you won. Still later you fought, aud
the world said you lost. Lee and John
ston and Stonewall Jackson were
idealists, every one, and so were Wash
ington and Jefferson and their associ.
ates. But of these, say you, their
dreams came true, while the others
dreamed in vain. Alb, me, no man has
dreamed or lived in vain who has sought
for lofty inspiration. The spirit of 81,
like the spirit of '76, WAS idealsm, and

like men and gentlemen"
Dr. Alderman declared that the South

crying need is for trained men. For
their training, he said, great institutions
Of learning are requisite and for them

The Chadwick Case.

Mrs. Cassie l.. Chadwick arrived 10
Cleveland. Ohio, rom New York, ip
the custody Of United States deputy
marshals, yesterday afternoon and found
yelling mob of thousands awaiting
her. The mob made her a target for
ilippant and coarse epi'hets and jeers.
As she was being taken through the
streets to the fedora building her ordeal
was of the same nerve racking character.
1t seemed as if the whole city had turned
out to boot at the woman who had
but recently been one of its dashiDg

"when everybody else gets through
talking I will have something to say
which will put an entirely different as
pect on the affair"
At the exact minute when her train
arrived the federal grand jury in Ceye-
land found five indictments against her.
She had previously been twice indicted
by the county grand jury. Three of the
new indictments charge her with aiding
the Ulcers OF national bank to defrau9
the institution, and two charge De:
with conspiracy against the United
States.
Four indictments were found against
President @. T. Beckwith, of the Citi-
zens' National Bank of Oberlin, and
four against Cashier A. B. Spear, of the
same concern. Two against each charge

Spanish Cabinet Resigns.

minister. The cabinet situation is con-
sidered difficult. 1t is understood that
Senior Maura refuses to take up the task
OF organizing a new cabinet unless there
is a dissolution of Parliament. On ad-
vice the king last night summoned
Senior Msura to the palace and invited
him to form a new cabinet, but Senior
Maura declined. The king subsequently
summoned former Premier Azcarrsga,
who, it is understood, intimsted that he
was not prepared to organize cabinet
unless first assured OF the support Of
Senores Maura and Silvela. 1t is Re.
ported that the crisis arose on the kings

Ware said "the increase in the number
