THE MAINE'S DEAD.
BATTLESHIP TEXAS DNROUTE TO
HAMPTON ROADS.
(By Telegraph to Virginian-Pilot)
Havana, Dec. 21.?The removal of
the dead of the Maine was not ac?
complished by any ceremonies over the
bodies, as, newly coflined, they were
placed in the mortuary chapel of the
cemetery until all was completed. At
10 o'clock last night, ten wagons
formed a procession, carrying 151 cof?
fins to the Machlna wharf, passing
through unfrequented streets.
The bodies reached the-wharf nt
11:30, under a strong guard from the
battleship Texas, were placed aboard
two stcaim ugnters before daylight,
and were taken to the warshiD at G
a. m.
She left here at 10 a. m. All the re?
mains were thoroughly disinfected. A
difference was found between the num?
ber of collins entered on Chaplain
Chidwlck's list, which was 154, and the
actual num'ber of collins exhumed.
Search was made through all the
twenty-two graves, in which the cof?
fins were buried, but the missing three
were not found.
The superintendent of the cemetery,
who burled the bodies, says that, owing
to all the remains not being- burled
the same day, it is quite possible that
a mistake was made In the counting.
He was certain no bodies were lost.
Captain Green also says he docs not
believe any bodies went astray.
Persons who were desirous of photo?
graphing the proceedings at the ceme?
tery were not allowed to do so. The
work was conducted quietly and decor?
ously, under the direclion of Father
Chldwlck.

tlon. The Senator would not say wheu
or where he thought the convention
should be held. ?
NEXT YEAR'S CONTEST.
"With reference to next year's con?
test the Senator said:
"No doubt the convention will re
allii m the Chicago platform. It will de?
clare against Imperialism and in favor
of regulating trusts. I think, too, that
it will condemn the efforts, which have
become too common to control elections
by the use of money. In my opinion
the passage of the bill establishing the
gold standard will aid utf- greatly."
The Senator said be never saw such
a diversity of opinion as to where the
nominee for Vice-President should
come from.
REPUBLICAN CURRENCY BILL.
Regarding the currency bill, Senator
Jones said:
"I think the adoption of a gold
standard bill by the present Congress
would have an enormous effect In
shaping the money issue. It- is a
declaration on the part of the Repub?
lican party for which it will have to
answer. A gold bill, if adopted by the
Senate?and there Is no doubt in my
.mind that the present bill substanti?
ally will be accepted by the Senate?
will force the Republicans to explain
what is on Its face a stroke of treason
against the pronouncement of the St.
Louis platform."
The Senator figures that the cur?
rency hill could command fifty and
possibly fifty-two votes in the Senate.
KENTUCKY DEMOCRACY
ISSUES AN ADDRESS TO THE
PEOPLE.
Frankfort, Ky., Dee. 21.?The address
of the Democracy of the State, Indors?
ing the contest instituted by Goebel
and other candidates of the defeated
Democratic ticket, and giving the rea?
sons therefor, was issued to-night. It
is 8'gned by form-jr Senator B.ackburn
chairman of the ?tate Campaign Com?
mittee; Chairman Y'oung, of the State
Central and Executive Committees, and
tees.
It says In part:
"The Democratic party of Kentucky,
through Its ? several committees, has
unanimously declared that the best In?
terests of the party, as well as justice,
demands that contests shall be made
by all candidates on the Democratic
ticket for the respective offices for
which they were nominated. Tho com?
mittee feel that it is proper that they
should, in a concise form, state the
grounds upon which they base their
action.
"The State Board of Election Com?
missioners at its recent session Issued
certificates of election to nil of the Re?
publican candidates for the State
ollices, but the board expressly declared
1)1 the opinion that it rendered, that It
acted simply as a canvassing board,
without power or authority, as it con?
strued the law, to Inquire Into the
legality or validity of any contested
votes. The board expressod the opin?
ion that if clothed with the authority
to go behind the returns and determine
Uie matters In contention, the certifi?
cates of election would not have been
issued to the parties who received them.
"We feel that In the light of the ac?
tion of this board thcDemocratscannot
do less than to carry their contention
to the .tribunals created by law for Its
determination. The grounds upon which
this contest Is based consist of the. pro?
test against the use of tissue ballots in
many of the overwhelmingly Republi?
can counties of the State. The use of
these ballots Is not only In violation of
the letter of the law, but is in utter
and open defiance of the spirit of the
law, and the use of these ballots fur?
nish not only prlma facie, but also con?
clusive evidence of purposed fraud.
"Another ground of contest Is he
cause of the plain violation and de?
fiance of law by the late Republican
Governor of the State, who whilst
actively engngod In the making of
stump speeches and the prosecution of
a partisan political canvass, ordered
out the military and. In violation of
both law and precedent, assumed per?
sonal command of troops In the me?
tropolis of the State, parading the
streets of Louisville on the day of the
election with his soldiers and Gatllng
guns, invading the voting booths and
forcing Into thorn ngnlnst the protest
of the lawfully-appointed election offi?
cials, pretended inspectors and challen?
gers who, the high court of the State
has decided, had no lawful right to be
present.
"The Issuance of the certificates of
election to the Republican candidates Is
contested upon the further ground that
a Federal and, also, a State Judge,
without warrant of law, and in defiance
of every prompting of fair dealing and
decency, interfered with the holders of
the Stnte election; the one by menacing
charges to a grand jury and by the em?
ployment of deputy II. S. Marshals, and
the other by Issuing every mandamus
and Injunction asked for by the Repub?
lican pnrty, which latter Judicial acts
have been declared by the Supreme Ju?
dicial tribunal of the State and have
been unlawful.
"Another ground Is tho use in the In?
terest of the Republican party of an
Immense corruption fund, contributed
by the most powerful railroad corpora?
tion of the Commonwealth, whereby
many thousands of votes were bought
against the Democratic party and its
candidates, because that party, in the
platform adopted in its State conven?
tion dared to advorate measures of re?
lief demanded by the people of the
Commonwealth."
