It Is, therefore, bollovod that tho Itata

An ovation awaits her, her captain and

Tho pursuit of tho transport by tho

Inhabitants of this town.
It la said, howover, that the com
mander of tho Itata reports that ha did
not seo any traca of his pursuer.
It is still generally believed hero that
tho Itata made a transfer of her arms

Mexican coast.
It Is thought likely, however, that tho
insurgent.! would ordor tho Itata hero If
pho had tho arms and ammunition still
in board.
It may bo that she has already dis
charged hor cargo at Tocopilla.
At any rate, if slio lias not rid of It in

bo that her being ordered horo is In ac

moiided that Mr. Ehrhart's salary ba made
1,175, which is to covor his sorvicos in tho

Mr. Davonport then recommendod that
Miss Coogan's salary bo decreased from 865
to 00 per month and that the teacher to
bo appointed to teach vocal music bo paid

FOR" BALLOTS
DECISION OF THE SUPREMK
COURT AT CONNECTICUT.
P0L1T1GS STIRRED UP AGAIN.
Republicans Claim That the De
cision Throws tho Eloctlon Into
tho Houso of Representa
tives Morris's Viows.
Nkw Haven, Conn., June 4, Connecti
cut politlos has beon stirred up again.
Tho Republicans ure pleased, but the
Democrats do uot give up the ship. The
hubbub Is over the decision rendered by
the Supreme Court of the State in tho
Brauford election case, In which the
highly Important question regarding tho
"for" ballot votes were also passed upon.
Tho Court ays: "Upon the facts In' the
case we hold that the bnlloU In question
were not Illegal and void because of the
use of the word 'for.' "
Tho court decldi-H on other grounds
thnn on the question of tho legality or
illegality of thd "for" ballots, but with
regard to those ballots says that under
other clreumstnucen the "for" ballots
night bo legal.
A r.egHl l'ollticul Party.
Tho court decide another Important
matter, viz.: "What Is a legal political
party?" The so-called Citizen's party 1b
lued tho "for" bullots In dispute. This
pnrty was orgatdzed like third parties are
generally formed. The "for" ballots, tho
court says, are legal under some clrcum
itancos nnd Illegal under others. The
jaso before tho court Is uot decided ou
tiho question of "for" ballots. The legal
existenso of n citizen's party Is defined
by the court as follows: "Tho element of
time is uot essoutinl to tho formation o
n legal party. It may spring Into exist
ence from tho exigencies of a particular
olection, nnd with no Intention of con
tinuing nfter tho exigency 1ms paBsod.
To hold tho contrary would bo to striko a
blow at that Independence In political

0tl,. important stop toward a settlement
A tho lonc-voxcd gubernatorial quostlon
in favor of tho Republicans. Tho Doniq
cratio loaders still maintain, howovoi1,
that dlsplto this ruling tho "for" ballots
aro legal. Tho great bulwark upon
which thoy rely for victory Is unshaken,
viz., their position that tho Rcnubllcans
'cannot go bohlnd tho face of tho returns.
llio Kopuullcuns maintain that tho
court's decision throws tho election Into
tho Republican Houso of Ropresentatlvos.
What Judge Morris Hays.
Judgo Morals, tho Domocratlo claimant,
maintains that his party did not roly
upon tho quostlon of tho logallty or ille
gality or tho returns, and that inasmuch
as tho returns showed a clear majority
for tho Democratic candidate thoy should
dccldo tho quostlon.
THE BACCARAT CASE.
It I.00I18 as If tho Odds Wore Acalnstt
dimming.
London, Juno 4. Ono would lmaglno
that aftor threo days of listening to what
appears to be intonsely interesting testi
mony in regard to tho baccarat scaudal
tho publlo would begin to tiro of it on
tho fourth day. Such, howover is not)
tho caso.
Tho same crowd of fashionable pooplo,
ladles still predomination, wna found in
side tho court, nnd tho lunch baskets
and pocket flasks woro out In stronger
forco than ovor. Fresh-cut flowers
formed part of nearly every lady's co
tumo, and their odors, mixod with tho
artificial perfurao on tho handkerchiefs
of tho hello dames present, gavo fragranco
to tho warm court room.
It Is too early to sum up tho effect of
tho testimony already takou upon tho
mind of tho British matron, who, as
thoso good ladles will admit, has a great
deal to do in molding public opinion. 16
Is safe to say, howovor, that both tho
plaintiff in this libel suit, Sir William
Gordou-Cummlng, nnd tho defondanta,
Mr. and lira. Lycett Greon, Mr. and Mrs.
Arthur Wilson and Mr. Berkeley Lovett,
to say nothing of the Princo of Wales,
havo not shown up In very bright colors.
Even tho Princo of Wales's best friends
are said to admit unwillingly that tho
testimony he gaie wae fur from being of
a nature to reflect credit upon the future
King of England and Emperor of India.
At this stage of the proceedings It is
safe to say that Cummlng will lose tha
oose.
