Retored the Money.

The tragedy of poverty was never
better illustrated than in the expert
ence of Charles Thomas, of Kalamazoo.
helplessly crippled man who sup
ports himself in a precarious manner
by selling lead pencils from a wheel
chair which he propels painfully about
the streets. On Friday he picked up a
purse containing $25 and although that
amount was a fortune to him he hast
ened to police headquarters as quickly
as he could and there met Mrs. X. Mil
Ter, poor woman, deserted by her
husband and who is supporting three
children by days work. She had come
to report the loss of the purse and she
wept with JOY as it was returned To
her.
Thomas was so touched by the wo-
mans emotion and her story OF her
own struggles that he wept in sym
pathy and the two left the station to-
gether.

After celebrating 80 hours, the jury
in the case Of The State of Ohio against
the Standard Oil Co. of Ohio, III Find

the charge Of conspiracy against trade

law. The first ballot of the jury stood

The penalty is fine of from $50 10
$4,000 which may be repeated for each
DAY Of the offense, or imprisonment of
from six to II months.

THE FOREIGN AND
DOMESTIC FIELD
THE HURRICANE DAMAGE IN
CUBA LESS THAN FIRST
REPORTED.
TWO CITIES SUFFER MOST
Sweep of the Cyclone Covered Only a
Limited Area-Nine Killed in City of
Batabano.
Latest Reports.

Reports received by Gov. Magoon
from the provincial governors of Cuba
show that the hurricane was less de-
structive in its results than was at
first believed. The storm was confined
mainly TO the provinces of Havana and
Pinar del Rio.
Batabano, so miles southeast of Ha-
vana, was the only other town except
the capital which suffered greatly. The
mayor Of that place reports that nine
persons were killed and that many are
missing.
The American steamer Campbell.
plying between the Isle of Pines and
the coast, and the Sara, went ashore,
and many small craft were wrecked.
Numerous houses were blown dow IL
and hundreds of persons are homeless
and destitute. The loss there is esti-
mated at 100000.
Gov. Magoon has directed Gov. MI
nez, of Havana province, to extend as
sistance to Batabano, declaring that il
the provincial treasury has not suf-
ficient funds he will find other means
for relieving distress.
TIC ihdyoi W san LUIS, III 'HV ploN-
ince of Pinar del Rio, and the center
OF the rich tobacco district, reports
great damage to seed tobacco but no
loss of life.
At Matanzas, where the Twenty
eighth United States Infantry is en-
camped, and at Cardenas, where the
Fifth United States Infantry is quar-
tered, tents were blown down and con
siderable damage was done to prop
erty. No persons, however. were in
jured.
All the southern portion of Havana
province is flooded, and great damage
was done to crops and buildings. The
Isle of Pines escaped without damage.

Nebouatoff Acquitted.

The surrender by Rear Admiral Ne
bogatoff of his squadron at the battle
of the Sea of Japan is held to be high
ly favorable to the admiral. 1t has been
shown that the hopelessly disabled
condition of his two principal ships,
the battleships Orel and the Nicholas
l., the lack of ammunition and the eX-
haustion of the crews at the time OF
the surrender, are proof of the courage
OF its officers and crews. The battle
ship Orel instead of being almost un-
injured, was so damaged that her COM
mander asked Admiral RojestVensky
for permission to destroy her. She was
on the point of sinking the next morn
ing and only had two heavy guns In
action.
The sentence of death in the case OF
the officers who, with Admiral Rolest-
vensky, surrendered to the enemy, has
been committed to dismissal from the
service and deprivation of certain
rights.

THE ASSAlLANT OF ANN ARBOR'S
CHIEF OF POLICE STILL
AT LARGE.
SHOT IN COLD BLOOD
Raymond Kent, Who Fired the Shot,

Chief of Police Charles Masten. of
Ann Arbor, was shot down in cold
blood in a dark hallway in lower
town" by Raymond Kent, aged %,
whom he had gone to arrest. Kent
escaped and is now being hunted for
ut dozen different points, and Chief
Masten is on the brink OF death in the
University hospital. The charge of shot
struck him full in the abdomen. rang
ing downward, having been fired from
the head of stairway while the chief
stood at the bottom.
There were some threats of violence
should Kent be captured but they
were only individual outbreaks.
Kent had a fight early in the even
ing with Louis Tukerman. who was
shooting up" a billiard room. Kent
left the place with the intention of get
ting IL weapon. He ran nearly mile To
the home of w. J. Randall and his son,
George, and asked to be admitted to
borrow gun and some cartridges.
The Randalls live in the upstairs por-
ton of n half of double house. Young
Randall admitted Kent and gave him
the weapon and ammunition and Kent
was about 70 leave when Chief Mas
ten. accompanied by his brother,
Frank. and Patrolman Clark, arrived
i'll a buggy, having been warned of
Kent's threats to do murder. The Of
ficers met Minnie Kent. the fugitive's
sister, who was just going home, and
she shouted TO them not TO 'beat-up"
heI brother as he was insane.
Masten entered the hall door which
was unlocked and shouted: Ray come
Gown here; | want to speak to YOU
You can't speak to me-" came the
reply, followed by oaths and vicious
names, and then the shot was fired
Chief Masten's companions carried
him to the buggy and his brother drove
him TO the hospital as rapidly as pos
sible, while Officer Clark remained TO
guard the house. While he was watch

Rowing Armed Bands.

While tranquility prevails generally
In Cuba, reports received in Havana
show the existence Of rowing armed
bands at various places. AT Guines
armed ex-rebels are lowering in the
outskirts Of the town and declare that
they fear to enter because of alleged
threats of persecution by the police.
At San Domingo bands of armed
negroes, eX-rebels, dissatisfied with
the terms of peace, threaten to com
nit depredatiOns, but are overawed by
the garrison, which consists of rs Unit
ed States marines. In the vicinity of
Cienfugos armed bands are reported
TO be engaged in depredations. A band
Of 80 mounted negroes, the members
of which call themselves insurgents,

A delegation of six liberal members
of the provisional council today visited
Gov. Magoon and announced that they
would attend no further meetings of
the council because the moderate
members OF the body were illegally
seated at the last election. Gov. Ma

gruntled councilmen and induced all
OF them to reconsider their decision

Disposal of Fines.

Upon request of Attorney General
Bird the Kalamazoo supervisors have
ordered an investigation into the fines
that have been collected in that coun-

the county has spent the money for.
Just the reason for the request is
not known. 1t is not believed that there

OF the attorney general causes consid'
cradle surprise.
The supervisors ordered the work
begun at once and made an appropria-
ton to cover the expense The fines
collected in that county during the
period stated will amount to probably
hundreds of thousands OF dollars and
to find out what the amount has been
spent for will take months.

English experts say that nine-tenths
of the serious crimes in Great Britain
are committed By old hands who have
been often imprisoned, whom they
class as incorrigible and recommend
should be put in a class by them
selves. They would have the courts
clothed with power, after a certain
number OF offenses, to pronounce a
man as incorrigible and to pass SEN
tence on him putting him permanent
ly in prison, where he can no longer
make war on society. The same OBJ
ject would be effective by deportation
and they believe 1T would bring about
a very great reduction in crime. If
we could remove the small population
in Guam elsewhere and send every
jncorrigible there for life there would
be no possibility of their escaping,
and the effect here would be greatly
beneficial

Silviera's Escape.

passengers of the Zulia. which has

ports.
Curacao is an island off the north
shore of South America, belonging to

that no treaty exists between Cuba and

mysterious murder or most peculiar
suicide. The three boys who came

Many Complaints.

Many complaints have been made to
iov. Magoon by liberals and mod
crates that the militia. on the one
hand, and the rebels on the other have
not given up all their arms. None of
these complaints is substantiated by
actual proofs. The liberals also COM
plain against the acts of certain
mayors and the police. Gov. Magoon,
who is having the complaints investi-
gated by Americans is surprised that
the complaints are not greater than
they are. In case charges are proved
against the mayors the provincial gov
errors will act. Charges have been
made against the governor of Pinsr del
