Theft ENCOURAGED
Ingenious Devices by Which
Cubans Have LOCALIZED
Horse Stealing.

Washington, Nov. 22.-Some OF the
Cuban generals, who have been assist
ing the Americans in the efforts to dis
arm and send to their homes the in
surrectionists in the late revolution
airy movement, appear to have digni-
fled and legaliZel the crime of horse
stealing, in the most ingenious man
ner, according to the reports lha
have reached the war department.
When the rebel soldiers surrendered
their arms, they were told that they
might keep their horses until they could
reach their homes. Now these horses
had been stolen mostly, and the in
t1ividual soldier was told that he
must return the horse to it's owner, If
the latter could show that the animal
was registered according to the Gu
ban law. Each of the soldiers was
given certificate describing the horse
and the conditions under which he
might be returned to the real owner.
Two facts made this reclamation

In some remote corner of Canada.
When Lawrence was married to
Miss George R. Payne. In Delmonicos
last February, he cut a swath in Wall
street circles.
Lawrence had come to New York
from New Orleans, where he organ
lied the Fibre company. He posed as
Il bachelor, though lie had wife then
living in Walpole, Mass.
Lawrence met Miss Payne at the
Waldorf-Astoria early last winter and
began to pay ardent suit. On the night
Of Feb. %, he telephoned to the home
of the Rev. DR.. Henry Marsh Warren,
to request him to perform marriage
ceremony. The Clergyman got sever
al prominent New Workers who were
attending the banquet to act as wit
nesses. They were Talbot Root, a
Wall street lawyer; F. S. Palmer,
Leslie j. Tompkins. Andrew S. Hamer-
sley and Lawrenre Griffith.
When the first wife's attention was
called to the second marriage she re-
fused to believe it.

rebels, ne could not obtain possession
OF the animal for lack OF the registra-
ton certificate. In the second place.
the disbanded rebels before returning
to their homes, took care to exchange
horses, SO that an animal stolen in
Santiago would net be returned to that
province but would find home in
Pinar del Rio.
This state of affairs WAS made worse
according to the report, by the action
OF some Cuban generals, actually is
suing certificates in blank to the dis
banded soldiers, so that it was pcs
s.ble fer them to continue Indefinitely
to steal horses, all that was necessary
for them to do being to pick out a
likely horse. make sure that it was
rot registered, fill IN the blank certi-
ficate with the description of the ami
nal and defy the owner to reclaim it.
1t is only fair to state that the in
surgent generals deny Indignantly that
they have given away any Of the blanh
certificates, but the fact is stated in
the report that such certificates have
actually been found in the hands OF
! disbanded soldiers.

in Last Years.

ST. Petersburg, Nov. 22.-Siberian
journals are full of the horrible SUI
fering which the political eXiles I'M
dergo in Tobolsk. Irkutsk. and other
sections Of that des0late land. During
the last eleven months, as many as
$4,000 people have been sent thither.
About 1000 have escaped. but the rest
remain to endure II living death. They
are sent to the marshes where moth
ing grows but rank grass. and where
no trade or craft can enable them to
earn enough to prolong their misera-
BILE existence.
The Russian government allows
them exactly = 1-2 cents a day. The
money sent by their friends rarely
reaches them. being intercepted" by
the cars officials. In summer, they
keep body and soul together with fish
caught in the rivers, and coarse rye
bread. In winter fish is worth its
weight in gold and bread unheard of.
Then they eat the grass from the froz-
EN- marshes. Little wonder that scurvy
cholera and typhus rage among them
Live In Mud Huts.
This is not the worst, for they are
obliged to live in the mud huts of the
native Ostiaks, infected with that S.
barian scourge, leprCsy. 1t is not
surprising that these eXiles, most OF
them delicately reared men and wom-

AIDES of Russian fortresses for their

capped this certain. but slow, death,
known as perpetual exile" They
have no hope for M-ything better and
cannot even find Il solace for their suf-
ferings in work-for there is none to
be done in this frozen wilderness.
In spite of the heavy death rate,
their numbers are steadily increasing,
for every week brings out fresh vic
tins. In fact the numbers of polit-
ical exiles have increased to such an
extent that the Russian government
has decided to run daily special exile
trains from st. Petersburg to Siberia.
These trains carry only political pris-
oners. who are herdei together like
cattle in unwarmed wagons. They
run at the speed Of the so-called pos
tai" or courier trains.
Rebels Are Not Awed.
And yet, in spie of these terrible
sufferings. men and women in Russia
are bent upon fighting for freedom.
Within the last few weeks, 5000
pounds of dynamite, 100000 bullets
and 1000 rifles ha>f been found by
the police, secretei in private houses
in Moscow, st. Petersburg and other
large towns. Never before have Rus
sian prisons and Siberian marshes
been so crowded with political pris-
oners as at the present time.

SPORTS-MORE TROUBLE. AHEAD
The troubles of the Minnesota foot
ball team are not all over yet.
A report from Bloomfield, Ind,
states that the Hoosiers would send
the strongest delegation OF football
men to Minneapolis that had ever
represented tina university OF Indiana
or this gridiron.
The Hocs!er eleven has been train
ed especially for the Gopher game,
and are not only expecting to score
but to win as we'll.
The Indiana representative that
came from Minneapolis last Saturday
to see the Minnesota Carlisle game
went back to Bloomfield pretty we'll
satisfied that his team could defeat
this Gophers.
Cr. Williams has mapped out
schedule of hard work for the Gophers
this week. and many of the weakness

Sporting Spiel.

Hughey McGovern viii return to

former battles.
Gunner Moirs victory over Jack
Palmer makes him the king pin in
English pugilism. He may fight an
American soon
Corbet has returned to his training
quarters in Stratfori to prepare him
self for the next fight with McGovern.
Marvin Hart refuses to meet Mike
Shrek unless he is guaranteed $1,000
of a $4,000 purse, win, lose or draw.
Shrek will not agree to this.
Mike Twin Sullivan has challenged
Joe Cans. AS Cans has scored two
clean knOckouts on Sully, there is no
chance of the match being made.
Battling Nelson says he has changed
his style, and hereafter will fight at
long range. II this Is SO he will be
knocked out the next time he is in
tho ring.
The fight trust in San Francisco is
doomed to fall like house of cards.
Gcfforth, Graney and Levy are in Il
hopeless tangle.
Honey Bill" Melody had a chance
to meet Jimmy Gardner, but passed
! it up. He is undoubtedly afraid of the
clever Lowell fighter.
Reports say West Point will in the
future cancel athletic relations with
Princeton. and all because the COL

General Sherman said it was-what
must the West Pointers think Of

failure. 1t was probably little too

Washington, July l&-Senator La

hot summer for some vi his Republic

senate was not as cordial as it might
have been. In fact, considerable
number OF the older Republican sena-
tors quietly took occasion TO lay some
logs IN the way of Senator La Folle,tes

that these reforms which are very near

He expects to speak in Delaware. Con-

He will tell what he knows about the
United States senate. and particularly
about the senators from those states.
1t is not likely that he will extend his
peresrnations to Senator Hale's state
OF Maine. for even he recognizes that
he might be wasting his breath in try
ing to pry Hale loose from his hold on
that commonwealth. His seeming
neglect Of Senator Hale will not be
due. however. to either fear of the
Maine veteran or desire not to
give him trouble. He will await his
chance in the forum of the senate
and there the two may be expected
some day TO clash brilliantly.
