VOL. XXIV.
BY THE SO-CALLED MILITARY -AS¬
SEMBLY OF CUBA.
THE OLD HERO IS NOT PERTURBED
On the Contrary, He Notifies the Assembly
% JSy Telephone That “He Kit Joys
the Situation.*'
A special from Havana says: The
Cuban ,, . military ... L assembly ,, . public ,
in
session Saturday afternoon impeached
General Maximo Gomez and removed
him from his command as general-in
chief of the Cuban army, the first „
ballot taken resulting in 26 votes be
ing cast in support of the motion to
impeach and remove General Gomez
against 1 in opposition. The meeting
lasted from 2 until 7 o'clock.
General Gomez’s only supporters
were General Cespedes and General
Nunez. The original motion, which
was introduced by Senor Manuel San
guilly, grade provided for the abolition of
the of general-in-chiof, but an
amendment was offered to this by
Senor Aguerro, which.read “to abol¬
ish the grade of general-iu-cbief and
to remove General Gomez for failure
in his military duties and disobedience
to the assembly.”
Senor Aguerro declared that Gomez
was insubordinate and should be pun¬
ished, and Senor Sangnilly insinuated
that the general was a traitor to Cuba.
Much passion was evident in the
speeches, in some of which Gomez
was declared to have been delinquent
in his duties and disobedient beenuse
he had accepted the propoailion of
Robert P. Porter, President McKin¬
ley’s special emissary, without con¬
sulting the assembly; because he had
taken upon himself the arrangements
for the payment and disarming of the
Cuban troops independent of the as¬
sembly, and because he had declared
to the assembly that he would observe
its rulings in so far as he considered
them beneficial to Guba.
The assembly declared that the
S3,000,000 was insufficient, and that it
has not yet accepted tho proposition.
The discussion of this question will
soon be taken up, now that General
Gomez has been removed.
Senor Gonzales de Quesada, who
pecamnaniad Mr Porter in f'libe. was
attacked by Senors Gualberto Gomez,
Saugnilly and Aguerro, who declared
that he had acted in bad faith, and
had deceived them. Senor Aguerro
likened the present conditions con¬
fronting the assembly to those that
confronted the French chamber when
it was proposed to impeach President
MacMnhon.
Colonel Morra and General Nunez
declared that the present step was
useless, and would make the assembly
ridiculous in the eyes of the world.
General Gomez is believed to be
stronger than the assembly in the
affection of the Cuban army. Many
privates are anxious to leave the army
and go to work, especially when they
are nble to obtain money to start them
in life anew.
The position of the assembly is no¬
tably weak, as the military adminis¬
tration supports General Gomez, as do
also the planters and property owning
element, who are tired of the Cuban
army, which subsists half upon charity
and half up n contributions levied by
means of threats.
Genera! Gomez received at Molinas
Saturday evening a telephone message
announcing to him the decision of the
assembly. He answered calmly: “All
right, I enjoy the situation.”
BEX. AY HEELER TALKS.
Says Question of Ills Remaining In tlio
Army Is Not Decided.
General Joseph Wheeler saw the
president Saturday concerning his
future status. Subsequently be said
that while the question of his remain¬
ing in the army had not been definite¬
ly decided, it was probable that he
would not remain in the service. Ho
thought the president would be unable
to find a place for him and he was not
pushing the matter.
“But I would like to remain in the
service,” he said, “and bo sent to the
Philippines, where there is fighting. I
would not care so much to stay in the
army if I had to remain in this coun¬
try.”
LANDING JAPANESE LABORERS.
Every Month From 500 To 1,000 Arrive In
Puget Sound Cities.
Labor circles in the northwest are
much agitated over reports which are
received with general credence that
hundreds of Japanese contract labor¬
ers are being brought into Puget
Sound eities.
Every month from 500 to 1,000
Japanese laborers are landed at Taco¬
ma, Vancouver and Portland. Practi¬
cally all pass in through the require¬
ments of which are sound body and
$30 in cash. It is said that hundreds
of these men are finding employment
on various railroad lines
SAMPSON’S SQUADRON SAILS.
Vessels Proceed By Way of .lainaicn to
Island of Porto Itico.
A dispatch from Havana says: The
north Atlantic squadron, under Bear
Admiral Sampson, sailed at 1 o’clock
Fridiy, proceeding by way of Cien
fuegos, Guantanamo and Kingston,
Jamaica,to Porto Rico.
Major General Lee, commander of
the Seventh army corps, will go on
. thirbattleship Texas to Cienfuegos, re¬
turning from that point by rail.
President Hns Praclirallv Mad© Up the
List as Kecavds Volunteers.
A Washington dispatch says: The
president has practically made up the
list of the general officers to be re¬
tained in the volunteer branch of the
service. The basis of all the calcula¬
tions is an army of 65,000 men, for
the president has so far insisted that
he will not call for volunteers in addi¬
tion to that number unless an emer¬
gency should arise.
The organization act limits the num¬
ber of major generals to be appointed
to one for each 13,000 men, and the
brigadier generals to one for every
4,000 men in actual service On this
| basis, as there are already three major
! generaIs in t he army, in the persons
j 0 f General Miles, General Brooke and
j General Merritt, there is room for but
* wo more.
' To fill these two places the president
l
bas Rfc , ec{pa Gcne , a \ shaftor all(1 Gen .
ora i otis, now in command at Manila.
j It is safe to say that the list of briga

following names: General
General Wood, at Santiago;
Wilson, at Matnnzas; General Lee, in
the province*! Havana; General Davis,
now on duty with the court of inquiry
into the beef supplies; General Lud¬
low, in command of Havana city;
General Lawton, near Ingmalia; Gen¬
eral McArthur, at Manila; General

TALMAGE RESIGNS PASTORATE.
Divine Sayr, liis Religious Journalism In¬
terferes IVills Pulpit. Work.
Rev. Dr. T. DeWitt Talmage, who
for nearly four years has been the pas¬
tes of the First Presbyterian church
of Washington sent a letter to the ses¬
sion of that church Thursday tender¬
ing his resignation. The explanation
made in the letter is as follows:
“The increasing demands made up¬
on me by religions journalism, and tho
continuous calls made for more gen¬
eral work in the cities, have of late
years caused frequent, interruptions of
my pastoral work. It is,not right that,
this condition of affairs should further
continue. Besides that, it is desirable
that I have more opportunity to meet
face to face in religions assemblage
those in this country and other coun¬
tries to whom I have, through the
kindness of the printing press, been
permitted to preach week by week, and
without the exception of a week, for
about thirty years. Therefore, though
very reluctantly, I have concluded,
after servSvg nearly four years in the
pastoral religion, to send this letter of

LOADED ON TRANSPORT AT NEW
YORK FOR CUBANS.
STRONGLY GUARDED BY SOLDIERS
Safes and Casks Will Be Delivered to Gen¬
eral Brooke, Who Will Superin¬
tend Distribution.
A New York special says: Tho
United States transport Meade sailed
Saturday for Havana, passing quaran¬
tine at 5:15 p. m. She has on board
the $3,000,000 provided by the United
States government to pay Cuban
troops. Of the total amount ba'f is in
gold nud half in silver. The weight
of metal is forly-eight tons.
Much interest centered in the re¬
moval of the treasure from tho sub¬
treasury. A large crowd gathered and
watched the proceedings.
Captain Littell, of the quartermas¬
ter’s department, had charge of the
detachment of soldiers from the forts
in the neighborhood of New York City.
There were about fifty men, each with
a Krag-Jorgenson and a full belt of
cartridges. They formed in line at
the treasury building and the boxes
and safes of coin were passed out be¬
tween thun.
Half a dozen ordinary trucks were
iu readiness in the street nnd men
dragged out the money on small band
trucks to the Pine street, entrance of
the buildings.
Half tlie money WjS in iron safes
about a foot and a half high and weigh¬
ing about 100 pounds each. All the
money was got on the trucks and eight
men boarded each ono. They stood
on the safes or casks holding their
rifles, and ‘lie trucks were then driven
through Broad street.
The treasure was then taken to pier
3, East river, where the General Meigs,
of the government service, was in wait¬
ing to receivo it. The soldiers again
formed in line nnd a dozen policemen
stood at the gang plank while the
money was being placed aboard the
Meigs. There were over a hundred
casks and safes in all.
The Meigs steamed over to Brook¬
lyn, where, at pier 22, the coin was
placed on the Meade.
Paymaster General Garey, gecom
ivinied bv office,ttjnl Major R<u— have charge <ff naju the
master’s
money and wiIXturn the coin over to
General Brooke, who will supervise
its payment to the Cuban soldiers.
Roll© Incomplete.
A dispatch from Havana says: The
only obstacle now in the way of paying
off the Cuban troops is the completion
of tbe rolls, a work which is being
hastened by Inspector General Boloff.
He says that, iu some eases the rosters
are missing or too defective to he use¬
ful. He points out that the insurgents
often have no paper, peus or ink.
General Gomez explains that 6,000
commissioned and 1,000 non-commis¬
sioned officers are relatively large
numbers in an army of 32,000 privates,
but that these officers in many cases
received their appointments because
the Cubans have had no other way of
recognizing bravery and stimulating
enthusiasm.
“It may seem,” he says, “a cheap
sort of promotion, but it meant a good
deal to the Cubans.”
ON SAME GALLOWS.
A 3Inn and Woman Are Executed For a
Foul Murder.
• At St. Seliolastique, Quebec, Mrs.
Cordelia Poirier and Samuel Parslow
were hanged on the same gallows for
the murder of Mrs. Poirier’s husband.
Life was declared extinct in eight min¬
utes, the necks of both having been
broken.
Mrs, Poirier was firm and collected
throughout. The crowd inside The
jail jeered at her, but her composure
did not desert her, and at the sugges¬
tion of the executioner she turned and
faced the jeerers and stood erect and
prayed to the last.
Parslow exhibited much less cour¬
age, and was more dead than alive
when the drop fell. The condemned
were taken to the scaffold separately,
and were prevented from seeing each
other by a screen placed between
them.
MANILA. DANGEROUS PLACE
For Residence of American Navy and
Army Officers’ Families.
The war department Saturday gave
out the following cablegram received
from General Otis:
“Manila not safe place for officers’
families. Great difficulty experienced
in caring for those now here aud their
safety one of the chief causes of anx¬
iety. Officers’ families should remain
in the United States.”
Under such conditions, the seretary
of war regrets that no more families
of officers or enlisted men can be per¬
mitted to accompany troops.
MONUMENT TO*WINNIE DAYIS.
Women of the South Honor Memory of
“Daughter of the Confederacy.”
A Richmond, Va., dispatch says:
Without solicitation of any kind, and
solely through the voluntary contribu¬
tions from those she loved, the mem¬
ory of Winnie Davis, the Daughter of
the Confederacy, will be honored by
tbe erection of a handsome monument
over the grave in beautiful Hollywood
cemetery. It will be the first tribute
of the kind ever paid to a southern war
man by the women of the south.
The Chicago Tribune prints the
following special correspondence from
Porto Rico from a Tribune correspon¬
dent:
Sax Juan de Foeto Rico, March
4.—The real situation in Porto Rico is
not understood. People ia the states
generally regard Porto Rico as a sort
of haven of peace. The war depart¬
ment has just requested of General
Henry that he immediately report how
many regular troops he could spare
from the island.
“I need twice the troops I have,”
said the general at his residence in
San Juan. “Because of the easy vic¬
tory of our troops here in the war and
invaded the island, a notion prevails
in the states that there is little neces¬
sity for a strong force to maintain or¬
der in the island. The idea is erro¬
neous.
“The conditions here are alarming.
These people have been given every
opportunity, but they have thrown
them aside. They are clamoring now
for local self»government. They are
no more fit for local self-goverr ment
than I am to run a locomotive. More
troops are needed in the island. The
seeds of discontent planted by profes¬
sional agitators are rapidly growing,
aud can be kept down only by a strong
military force.
“The ill feeling between the natives
nnd the American troops seems to
grow stronger every day. The Amer¬
ican officers have to maintain the
grentest vigilance to prevent their
men from wreaking vengeance on the
natives, and especially on the native
police, for acts of violent that are
continually committed against the
troops.”
“BADLY TREATED” WITNESS.
Million Says Ho Will Not Again Testify
Against Mrs. Moore.
Martin Mahon, the New York hotel
man, who is now in Atlantic City, N.
J., says that he will jot return to
New York to testify % against Fayne
Moore.
Mahon figured prominently as pros¬
ecuting witness in the badger trial
which resulted in sending William
Moore to prison for nineteen years,
bat he says he was so badly treated
while on the witness stand in that trial
that ho will not present himself to tes¬
tify in the trial of Mrs. Moore. Mr.
Mahon’s statement made to a reporter
is as follows: W
I “It may be aa. w e llfftr w>e to make gn
aiUhWlRn »ve ..nteaMBl. and pul a sup
to to this thin-con! conn tTfthIn^TO5nper positively, honndiug.
Yon may state, that I shall
remain here, or at least without the
jurisdiction of New York courts, for at
least a year; that I will not, under
any circumstances, appear against Mrs.
Moore, and that I do not fear the pro¬
ceedings in contempt which I have
been threatened with. My business in
New York has been so adjusted that I
can remain away indeljhitely, and, if
necessary, I will go abroad to escape
annoyance. I believe every man is
master of his own action.
“I did what I thought was right in
instituting the case against Fayne
Moore and her alleged husband, but I
was badgered and ill-ti-eated worse
upon the witness stand than I had
been by them, and I will not undergo
such an ordeal and uncalled for hound¬
ing again. ^
“All rumors that I have been bribed
or begged into not appearing iu the
retrial of Fayne Moore are absolutely
and unqualifiedly false.
“This is the first, last and only
statement I shall make regarding my
position.”
GOVERNMENT IS ANNOYED
Over Reports of Trouble Caused By Mus¬
tered Out Soldiers.
A Washington dispatch says: Re¬
garding the report from Atlanta of
rioting by the Tenth colored immune
regiment after its muster out at Macon,
Ga., it was said at the war department
Thursday that no official report had
been received and that as the troops
in question had been mustered out of
the service they would have to be
dealt with by the local authorities for
any breach of law they might have
co unfitted.
The fact is, however, that the re¬
pealed occurrences of this sort are be¬
coming a sore question'with the war
department, and it is highly probable
that hereafter troops to be mustered
out will be sent to their own state and
given their discharges there.
PROPOSITION TO WHEELER.
President Asks Him to Accept a Brigadier
Generalship.
A Washington dispatch says: The
president has asked General Wheeler
to accept the commission of brigadier
and remain in the army. There js no
major generalship to which he can be
appointed in the new organization.
General Wheeler has the matter un¬
der consideration, but has not given a
final answer. It is understood, how¬
ever, that General Wheeler will do as
the president wishes in the matter and
will now start for the Philippines,
where the administration thinks his
experience will prove most valuable.
POSTMASTER UNDER ARREST.
Bogert, of XYilkesbarre, Charged IVith
Tampering With the Mails.
The arrest of E. F. Bogert, post¬
master at Wilkesbarre, Pa., on a
charge of tampering with ordinary
mail, was reported to Chief Postoffice
Inspector Cochran at Washington
Thursday afternoon.
Wilkesbarre is an important post
office, and Postmaster Bogert’s salary
is $3,200 a year. He has been post¬
master since 1806.
GEN. WHEATON’S MEN CAPTURE
THE CITY OF PASIG.
THREE AMERICANS WERE KILLED.
Loses of Filipiqog £aid to Be Severe.
Rebels AVer© Utterly Routed and
City Easily Taken.
A Manila special says: General
Wheaton attacked and captured the
city of Pasig, east of Manila, Monday
afternoon. The enemy njade a stand
for an honr, but at the end of that
time was forced to retreat.
At daylight General Wheaton’s di¬
visional brigade, consisting of .the
Twentieth United States infantry, the
Twenty-second infantry, eight com¬
panies of the Washington volunteers,
seven companies of the Oregon volun¬
teers, three troops of the Fourth
United States cavalary and a mounted
battery of the Sixth artillery, was
drawn up on a ridge behind San Pedro
Macati, a mile south of the town. The
advance was sounded at 6:S0 a. m.,
the cavalry led the column, at a smart
trot, across the open to the right,
eventually reaching a clump command¬
ing the rear of Guadalupe.
Supported by the Oregon volunteers
the ndvanee force opened a heavy fire
on the rebels.
The response was feeble and desul¬
tory, apparently coming from bonds
ful of men in every covert. While the
right column was swinging toward tbe
town of Prtsig, the left advanced and
poured volleys into the bush.
A small body of rebels made a de¬
termined stand at Gaudalupe church,
but was unable to withstand the as
sault.
At 7:30 a. in. a river gunboat started
toward Pasig. The rebels were first
encountered by this vessel in tbe jun¬
gle ihe near Guadalupe. Steaming slowly,
gunboat poured a terrific fire from
her gatling guns into the brush. For
all of an hour the whirring of the rapid
lire guns alternated with the booming
of the heavier pieces on board.
The artillery moved to a ridge com¬
manding Pasig and Parteros. By this
time the enemy was in full flight along
a line over a mile long and the firing
was discontinued temporarily in order
to give attack the troops l-’asig. a rest before making
I... wit
At this stage of the engagement it
was raining heavily, and after a short
rest, General Wheaton resumed the
attack on Pasig.
The first shot shot from the Ameri¬
can field pieces at 1,200 yards range
dislodged a gun of the enemy at Pasig.
After tbe town had been shelled,the
Twentieth regiment lined up on tbe
bluff aud the Twenty-second took up a
position on the left of the place, with
the cavalry in the center, whereupon
the enemy retreated to the town.
The rebels were met opposite Pnte
ros, but the enemy bolted and the city
was captured.
Thirty of the rebels were killed and
sixteen were taken prisoners and the
Americans lost three men killed and
fourteen wounded.
A public demonstration was made
at Havana Monday morning in honor
of Gomez. When Federico Morn,
civil governor of Havana, learned of
the preparations he directed the police
to prevent the parade. They tried to
do so, but utterly failed.
When near Quinta de los Molinas
the demonstrators began to shove the
policemen, pulling their coats.and at¬
tempting to take away their clubs.
There were more than a hundred police
within ten blocks, but they did not
act together. Indeed, they were
thoroughly scared, and one policemen
ran to Central park, where the Tenth
regulars were camped.
The Twentieth regulars, who were
sent at double-quick with fixed bayo¬
nets to protect the policemen, charged
down upon a crowd of a thousand.
Everybody ran, including the police
and men, women and children tum¬
bled over each other in the rush. Two
minutes later the avenue was cleared
for blocks, but not a person was hurt
by the regulars.
WILL VISIT CUBA.
Georgia Kditors Are Preparing Fora Trip
to the Inland.
Mr. H. H. Cabauiss, president of
the Georgia Press association, is ar¬
ranging to take that body of editors
on a trip to Cuba. The trip will be a
short cue and at moderate cost. It is
estimated that the expense will be
from $60 to $75 for each person.
It is the intention of President
Cabaniss to call a meeting of the
Georgia Press association at Tampa

ately reappoint these officers, omitting
