GENERAL eRookE's DEFENCE.
CounsePs Reply to Countess Of euena
Vista.

washington. March 15.-The officer of
the Department of Justice in charge Of
the defence of General Brooke is about
to file his answer, which will set IN the
same legal points before relied on. but
under more favorable conditions, since
the demurrer is to admit as facts al
that was stated in the complaint,
while the answer will not. General
Brooke issued an order abolishing the
Countess of Buena Vista's MONOPOLY in
Havana. The attorney sought to have
plaintiff amend the complaint by
emitting certain disputable conclusions
of Spanish law and inserting matters
including Spanish laws, necessary to
the defence. This was agreed to in
principle. but the plaintiff finally re-
fused to make any changes.
The decision Of the court, which It
reached with hesitation, was that the
countess's right was property, our
Spanish treaty protected property and
Brooke personally and arbitrarily
destroyed this property. Brookes at
torney has not lost faith in any one of
his proposition, as they will now stand
before the court. He will urge this
new point that BrOoke's mere order as
governor Of Cuba, purporting to abol-
ish the countess's right, if contrary to
law. was nullity. from which it fol-
lows That the right continuing in her,
no one was bound to respect the order,
she should have proceeded to carry on
her business as before, and that if any
subordinate officer in Havana directly
prevented her from attempting to do
so, he and not General Brooke was
liable to the action of tort. He could
not justify himself by an unlawful Or
der of the government, but committed
distinctly unlawful act. The last
wrongful act was the proximate cause
of the injury. and that the law does
not permit the countess to go behind

BOY D BURNED.
Art Cross Comes Near Losing His
Eyes With Acid.

Art Cross, an employe OF the Asher
restaurant, met with a very painful
accident while working In the ice
cream room. A quantity or strong
sulphuric acid was splashed into his
face. The eyelids were badly burned
and how the fiery fluid was kept from
the eyes is a mystery. The side OF
his face and his neck were terribly
burned. Prompt action following the
accident saved the lad from a worse
burning.
Cross lifted a large carboy part full
Of acid and as he set 1t down again
the acid was splashed to the side with
sufficient force to throw 1t against the
cork. This was old and did not hold
firmly. II was ~dislodged and q portion
Of the acid was carried QUE with 1t
and into his face.
The lad screamed for help, for the
stun was hotter than fire. Mrs. Asher
dashed a pitcher Of cream into the
boys face and this gave a moments
relief. He was hustled into the Pike
drug store, where the acid was neu,
tralized quickly as possible. 1t will
be some little time before the boy Is
recovered.
