NO SPANISH SPY.
A] Drunken Mun's Ravings tho Cans
of a. Sensation.
fctyaln has not yet begun to fiootl the
army posts; and navy-yards of the,
United States with .spies, notwithstand?
ing a wild and wooly statement to the
rirrect that a Spanish emmisary had
vn arrested at the Norfolk Navy
yard, which was telegraphed broadcast
throughout the country last night by a
Portsmouth newspapi r man.
The rumor was referred to the navy
yard ollleials, who promptly branded
it as nn unqualified rake out of the
whol? cloth. Nobody even resembling
a Spaniard, much less a "sjiy," had
been seen at the yard. No arrests of
civilians had been made. Naval olll
cers for the most part laughed heartily
at the rumor, but one veteran, holding
a. high office, looked grave and said:
"These Irresponsible would-be news?
paper men, wbo send out unfounded
reports of this character, no; only
bring the profession of journalism Into
disrepute, but they make statements
calculated to provoke grave complica?
tions in public affairs."
The story, it seems, grew out of the
arrest of a drunken man named
Thompson, who claimed to be a Span?
iard and who said he wanted to light
the United States.
NATIONAL LEA CUE.
Scttedtlla Arranged lor Hie Season
Will eh Opens April lath.
St. Louis, March 2.?Very little wa*
done during the short morning session
of the baseball magnates and they did
not really get down to business iintil
2 o'clock this afternoon. The afternoon
session win devoted wholly to making
changes In the rules and adopting the
schedule of games. The majority re?
port submitted by James A. Hart and
A. J. Reach was slightly amended,
most of the changes being included In
the minority report submitted by Ed?
ward llanlon, or Baltimore. The
Changes weiv adopted unanimously.
The most Important change was the
new rule substituted for rule 07. It
rends as follows:
"The umpire shall perfrOm all the du?
ties devolving upon a single umpire
except giving decisions on first, second
and third- bases, and deciding points
of pl.iy In running such bases, which
shall devolve upon such umpire, ex?
cept as regards third base, when nny
other base Is occupied by a base runner,
In which event the umpire shall decid.?
all points of play arising at third base.
It shall be the duty of the umpire to
assist or advise each other In rendering
any decision when asked by the o;her
umpire.'*
To rule f.1, which relates to tho sus
per.sl m of a player, a provision was
added that the term of suspension shall
noil exceed three days including the
d'ahe of removal.
The schedule differs from that of
former years, in that the clubs make
four Eastern and Western trips, jnstead
of two, as formerly, and that New York
and Pittsburg will play on Sunday
while ab oad.
The season open? April In. In the fol?
lowing cities: "Boston at New York,
Brooklyn at Philadelphia, Baltimore at
Washington. Cleveland at Cincinnati.
Pittsburg at Louis vill\ Chicago at S;.
Louis,
The s. ison closes on October 15. with
the Eastern and Western clubs playing
among themselves.
The night session was called to order
a; S o'clock and lasted until 11:15, when
the met ting adjourned sine die to meet
next in New York city. It was decided
that there be no more banquets at an
nu -.1 meetings. The league will not
employ an official organ for 1S0S.
It was resolved, as a matter of res?
pect to the memory of the lite Charles
il. Byrne, that the existing vacancy In
the national board of arbitration, oc?
casioned by his death, be no: filled
until terminate.1 by limitation.
lb fort adjourning the- magnates sign?
ed an agreement pledging themselves
to prevent their players from ques?
tioning decisions of umpires.

Many members of the Spanish colony in

Tho war talk of the part two weeks
hns been productive of much incident,
all more or less significant.
lA reprctsen'ta't'lvo of tho Virginian
was talking the'other day with a vet?
eran conductor" on the Atlantic Const
L/llie system, lie was a bravo lighter
for the South during [ho late war, nnd
the principal conviction 1:: his. mind
just now is that the Unted States could
|w'hi;> Spain in au incredibly short
thro.
"Those Spaniards wouldn't be' In It,"
said he. ' and all we want, is to get a
whack at I hem. There are some poopl.
who love the almighty dollar so well
they .ire afraid to get into trouble with
nhoth ?? country. Well, wc haven't got
any surplus of ?ho almighty dollar
down here, .and that cons! letatlon don't
afTect us much. If war Is declared
there will be many old veterans' who
will fill Int.. line. They will bo the
first l ? show up. Eight! why they will
show -the fining generation a thing or
two about the game they haven't learn?
ed. This is a lighting- country, any?
way. I believe tve can whip the
world."
? ? ?
Ltess sanguine is a strapping six
footer, who is one of Uncle Sam's best
workmen in the Norfolk navy yard, lie
was discussing the situation somewhat
tremulously and summed up his posi?
tion thus: "They will have to catch
me first, If they expect me to fight. I
couldn't tight anyway. No sir! If they
11111 a soldier on each side of me, and
one behind me with a bayonet, I might
march along in some s'>rt of fashion
until some one said 'Spanish,' then 1
would drop dead." Fortunately for the
reputation of the country for brave
men, this individual belongs lo a lim?
ited class.
...
It has gotten to bo quite a common
joke, though, for people to solemnly
assert that they are going to the Dis?
mal Swamp if war is declared. Enough
people have declared their intentions
in tills direction to convert that famous
morass into a human beehive, and a
common form of salutation among
many is "When are you going to the
Dismal Swamp?" This is more or less
a merry jeet.
...
A very small Krambleton boy?he has
just blossomod out In knickerbockers?
has hit on even a better scheme. He
ha? made his father promise him, if
Spain nnd the United States get to
fighting, to pump out the cistern In the
hick yard, and lower his mother und
I himself Into it every day, also his little
chair. He proposes to stay above
1 ground during the night, though.
...
A jack tar formerly for two years In
service aboard tho little torpedo boat
Stiletto, has Just enlisted on the Puri?
tan. "It's the closest lifo In the world,"
he said, referring to his' experience.
"Sometimes we had to fairly double up
like jack knives. No mm who has not
been to sea in a torpedo boat knows
what it is to bo uncomfortable. They
are wonderful erafl. This Winslow.
here, is big compared with the Stiletto.
1 have been over most of the world,
land and sea, but the roughe-'t experi?
ence I ever had was on that little cigar
of a. boat coming down the coast In a
gale. The hoys don't Use the monitors
niiiieh, but thay are unmcasurca'biy
roomier. There i? so much more of
them. iA'ft>er the first three weeks of it,
they all swear that when they get free
they will never go near a ship ngnln.
but, when tho time is up, some way, the
?temptation to enlist again Is almost
beyond them. I know how it Ih my?
self. I've fought against It for five or
six years, but when the Maino went up
nnd I heard that Uncle Sam wanted
some roori to take their place, I couldn't
stand it any longer, so came right up
and enlisted like a little man. I hope
we will have Sonic fighting. 1 think
the Puritan can sink anything afloat."
...
The Interest' the entire public Is tak?
ing in the situation is evidenced by
the fact tha: pOolc still talk of little
else but "tiie latest war news." as they
call it, and the slightest information,
local or otherwise, Is eagerly grabbed
and discussed to shreds. When the
Terror left the yard about a week ago,
the wharves were suddenly black with
spectators. A salute fired in honor of
Governor Tunnell, of Delaware, yes?
terday hid the effect of bringing
crowds to the riverside, the people
thinking that a warship was going out
or coming in.
...
The Interest is beginning to assume
a beneficent gui*c. and a large number
of Norfolk people have expressed their
desire to contribute either to th? fam?
ilies of the Maine victims or to the
monument fund. There has been talk
also of one or more theatrical benefits.
Doctors now agree that
consumption is curable.
Three thingj, if taken to?
gether, will cure nearly every
lease in the first stages; the
i majority of cases more ad?
vanced; and a few of those
far advanced.
The first is, fresh air; the se?
cond, proper food; the third,
Scott's Emulsion of cod-liver
oil with hypophosphites.
To be cured, you must not
lose in weight, and, if thin,
qu must gain. Nothing

?Wllkeirtiarrc, Pia., Ma-.-b 2.?The cr ss
'ex i initiation of Sheriff Martin was re?
sumed when court irri t this morn!:"-.
The main point established was that
the witness denied making the remark
after I ho shooting Hurt he had merely
"taken a hand in the matte- as plain
James .Martin, ami not iu-s sheriff of
t.ozerno courtty.''
Samuel Price, a con-tractor and com?
mission merchant of llazle-ton, who was
one of the deputies, corroborated Sheriff
'Martin'? testimony. He told of the
disorderly conduct of the strikers^ and
said that one of them had fired, a pistol
tit him on the fital morning. A mo?
ment later tho shooting commchcetl.
He heard no order given to lire.
tArlo Pardee Platt, or llazlctnn, man?
ager of the Pardee department store,
gave a clear and detailed statement if
the whole affair. He was one of the
deputies and told how the property
owners In ITtazleton and vicinity ap?
pointed special watchmen to guard
their property at night from the riotous
mob of strikers, and how they pu:
chased one hundred Sprlntieltl rifles and
bivech loading shot guns for these
watchmen. These were the arms that
were afterward given to ;he deputies.
The witness saw the sheriff halt tho
strikers at Iiattimer on September 10,
nnd advise them to disperse. The sher?
iff was knocked to his knees and pom?
meled by the strikers, some of whom
flourished revolvers nnd knives and
tried to kill him. The witness left the
deputies and rushed to the sheriff's
rescue, and tried to stop the striker.",
luit his gun would not work. The rest
of the strikers rushed toward the depu?
ties, While the witness tried to rescue
the sheriff he heard a shot and then
came the volley. There was no shoot?
ing after the volley nnd the strikers
scattered. The witness did not shoot,
and does not know who gave the order
to fire.
A. M. Hess, n civil engineer of TTazle
ton, who commanded Company A, of
the deputies, corroborated Platt.

against Mr. Rwart, Senator Puller says
that he has "neither the native ability
nor 'the legal acquirements 'to qualify
him for a Judicial position," and adds
that "even if he had sufficient ability
and legal learning lv> is wanting In the
equipoise of temperament to qualify him
?to fill this Important life position." He
says ithat Mr. ISwart in without exper?
ience as a lawyer ,nnd in his specifica?
tions declares that he never argued a
case before the Supreme Conn of his
State, nor before any court of appellate
Jurisdiction, Federal or State. He also
alleges ether disqualifications, and at?
tacks Mr. ErVart'a reputation as a pub?
lic official nnd also as a private Indi?

is one that, while a member of Congress
Mr. Ewnrt sold his public documents,
and that while on the bench of the
Stft'te courts of North Carolina, he rode
on railroad passes, notwithstanding
there was a State law t'i the contrary,
and at the same time accepted tho ?2.")0
