THE GALLINGER HEARING.
11 Bitter and Sensational Political
Aflaii‘ Clo-ed.
CON-CORD, N. 11., July 13.—The hear-
ing before the United States civil service
commission on charges of the violation
of the law on political assessment by
United States Senator Jacob H. Galliu—
ger is practically conéluded, but the final
session proved most sensational. Not
only did Senator Gallinger accuse his
colleague, Senator Chandler, of speaking
an untruth, but offered to back up his
statement outside the committee room.
Previous to this episode Senator Chand-
ler became involved in a warm dispute
with Chairman Brewer of the commis-
sion and not only accused him of par-
tiality, but threatened to ask for his re-
moval.
The author of the assessment circular,
William S. Thayer, did not testify before
the commission, and it was the impres-
sion last night that no further evidence
would be taken. The commission, how-
ever, has already received a communica-
tion from Mr. Thayer, in which he stated
; that he prepared the circular on his own
responsibility, but that Senator Galliu-
: ger knew of its being sent to federal of-
' ficeholders.
The hearings both on Tues-
day and yesterday have been marked for
their bitterness on the part of both sen—
ators.
Alicea AGAIN DENIES. .
Will Not Retire This Year—Constant
Attack. Annoying.
WASHINGTON, July 1J3.——Secretary
Alger yesterday made to a press repre-
. sentative his first personal statement con-
cerning the reports that he is about to
resign from the cabinet. The secretary
said:
“I shall not retire this year certainly
and cannot say as to the future. My
private business and the state of my
health will govern my future course.
“These constant assaults and repeated
baseless reports are. of course. very an-
noying to me and extremely distressing
to my family. but 1 have never cyet re-
tired under fire and do not propose to do
so now.
“Nothing that I have ever heard of or
known of has been so cruel as these at-
tacks upon me. If my critics can point
to one thing in my oflicial,carecr I have
done that I ought not to have done, or I
have not done that I should have done, I
shall be very- glad to surrender my pres-
ent official duties."

pany of Council Bluffs, Ia. They were

plete.

. Oregon Troops Arrive.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 13.-—The
United States transports Newport and
Ohio, bearing the Oregon volunteer regi-
ment from Manila, arrived here last
night. The vessels were sighted early in
the afternoon. and soon the shrieking of
steam whistles, the elanging of bells and
the firing of cannon announced that the
first batch of returning volunteers from
Manila was nearing the shores of Cali—
fornia.

WEST POINT, N. Y., July 13.—Two
more cases of scarlet fever developed in

falling derrick on the site of the new
Sailors’ Memorial library yesterday aft-
ernoon James Gallagher was killed and

that the list of 'mjured is so small.

i THE DESTINY or CUBA
Gomez Speaks For Independ-

THANKS DUE T0 THE AMERICANS.
The People Should Not Give Up to n
'l‘utelage, but Should Claim
Their Rights and Become
Independent.
HAVANA, July 13.—-At a meeting
held in the Payret theater, after the
street demonstration and parade in his
honor, Juan Gualberto Gomez was him-
self the principal speaker. In the course
of a long address dealing with the rea-
sons for beginning the'war with Spain
he said:
"I am now, as I always have been, a
separatist, and I still demand the sepa-
ration that I asked before the war, not
only separation from Spain, but from
any and all other nations. People only
begin a revolution when it is absolute-
ly necessary to life and progress. If a
superior force deters them before their
object is attained, there is merely the
question of delay.
“The revolution will inevitably return.
Nations, like stars, have their seasonsof
eclipse, but, following their’ orbits, they
emerge and accomplish their final des—
tiny. The destiny of Cuba is only inde-
pendence. The basic ideas of the revo-
lution were no mystery, and therefore a
synopsis now which would really remind
us of past suffering and of incidents
cssary. Still, we would return to those
direful days if it had to be. Honor is as
much a necessity in national life as is
food in the life of the individual, and
it ought to be insured if possible, even
though the attempt may result in catas-
trophe and death.
“Such disasters we can avoid by per-
fect unison, by raising our voices to de-
clare that this country is ours and that
we want it for ourselves, by forgetting
our enmities, by obliterating personali—
ties, by drawing a line through our terri-
ble past and by devoting ourselves to the
future.
“\Ve should give due thanks to the
Americans, whose progress and power
inspire our admiration, but this does not
mean that we should resign ourselves to
a tutelage to be' exercised over us. Let
us make the same statement to the Unit-
ed States that the American colonies
made to England when they declared in
1776 that the Americans owned North
America.”
The entire speed) was in this spirit.
The local press praises it as “the most
important occurrence since Jan. 1."
Most of those present at the meeting
were negroes, and many of the banners
borne in the procession showed the
legend “Independence or Death.”

TWIN' CHIcKEits.
The Strange Pair Are. Very Exclu-
sive and Associate Only with
Each other.
A rather unusual sight. was witnessed
recently during a. visit to a poultry
farm near the "Heart of the Common-
wealth,” says the Boston Transcript.
Two chickens from the same egg, are
here and they have already lived five
weeks. The owner had received an offer
of $25 for the pair, but preferred to
keep the chickens. His attention was
called to them first when he saw two
bills trying to break out through the
shell. The egg containing the twins
was carried into the house, the shell
was carefully removed and the two in-
fant chickens were given their first;
sight of the world} They were wrapped
up in cotton batting and were placed
in the oven of the kitchen stove and
kept there for some time.
For the first three weeks they were
not allowed to go out of doors and were
fed on malted milk and brandy served
to them from a medicine dropper. The
little fellows are now strong and able
to look after themselves and run about
of their relatives.
One peculiarity about these chickens,
which, by the way, are of the variety
known as but! brahman, is their ex-
treme exclusiveness. They have noth-
ing whatever to do with the others and
are constantly together. Where one is
seen the other is sure to be within a
foot or two of it. If one of. them is
picked up or separated from the other,
both start in calling for each other and
keep this up until the one which has
been taken up is placed on the ground.
Then the immediately “join forces” and
start off on a foraging trip.
’Bosrows MUNICIPAI. MUSIC.
The Huh I: the First American City
to Try the Experiment—
Free Concerts. 9-"
Indoor concerts, though carried on
by many European cities, have proba-
bly never before been undertaken by
any American municipality. Two
series of six each, however, were actual—
ly given in Music hall during‘the-last
fall and winter, under the charge of the
new music commission. Having been
successful in organizing a municipal
band of 37 pieces for summer music in
:the parks, the commission proceeded
in the fall to organize a municipal or-
chestra of 35 pieces for winter concerts.
The programmes were rendered on
Sunday evenings, usually to full houses,
made up chiefly of wage-earners, and
were of a high order, says the Review of
Reviews.
The admission ranged from 10 to 25‘
cents, and practically met the expenses.
It is intended next fall to open another
series of these concerts. Chamber con-
certs, rendered by a string quartet
with the assistance of a soloist, and
costing from $50 to $60, are also given
by the commission on week day even—
ings in the more remote districts of the
city. These are free, the cost being
borne by a private donation. _ No money
has been appropriated by the city for
any of the winter music, but it is quite
reasonable to expect that when its
standing and the demand for it- have
been'more clearly defined it may be put
upon a permanent basis of public cost.
A pipe organ, however, has been re-
cently purchased by the city, to be used
under the direction of the commission ‘
for regular recitals by a municipal or-
ganist, and other popular projects an-
in mind.
