SUGGESTION OF IN SANITY.
One Member Declares Recent Utterances
Severely Tested the People’s Alle-
giance—Debate Over a Baron's
Murder of a Workman.
BERLIN, Nov. 18.—Today’s proceedings '
in the reichstag were of quite as much in-
terest as those of yesterday, and in many
respects a. great deal more exciting. As
announced last week, the Radical inter-
pellation on the recent murder of Herr
Siebemann at Carlsruhe by Lieutenant
Baron von Brusewitz and upon other mil-
itary outrages was introduced today in
the presence of a full house and packed
galleries.
The motion was Oflered by Herr Munc-
kei, Richterite Radical, who in the course
of his remarks referred to the concluding
sentences of the emperor’s address to the
reoruits last week. The words of the kale
ser, Herr Munckel said, could have but one
meaning, and that was that whoever in-
sulted the king’s coat insulted the king
himself.
This interpretation of the kaiser’s words.
)iicit'ed ironicai cheers from the members
of the Left and noisy cries from the mem-
bers of the Right, and the speaker was
vociferously cheered by the Radicals when
he declared that Lieutenant von Brnsewitz
was a criminal whose liberty endangered
the safety of peaceful citizens. .
Prince Hohenlohe replied by readings.
declaration from the emperor ordering en-
tirely new stipulations in regard to courts
of honor, the effect of which was that the
decisions of the courts must notnecessarily
involve a. duel. The chancellor declined to
discuss the matter of the emperor’s preroga-
tive to pardon Lieutenant von Brusewitz
and others who had been condemned by
military and other tribunals.
General von Gossler, the new minister of
war, followed in a lame speech. It was his
first address in the reichstag, and he made
an exceedingly unfavorable debut. The
sentence imposed upon Lieutenant von
Brusewitz by the military court, he said,
had not yet been submitted to the kaiser
for his sanction. He protested against the
incitement of the public against the army
by exploiting cases of cruelty on the part
of officers toward soldiers and civilians.
[Cries of “Shame!” and “Oh, oh!”] The
house ought to recollect the instances in
which officers had been insulted in the
streets.
Lame Speech In 3. Lame Cause.
General von Gossler recounted several of
such cases, and then followed an awkward
pause, the new war minister having lost
the thread of his discourse, members of
the opposition adding to his embarrass-
ment by audibly tittering.
Finally the speaker pulled himself to-
gether and continued his remarks. He
contended that an officer had the same
'right’ as a civilian irr‘ self defense when he
was attacked; This declaration caused a
great uproar, in which loud laughter was
mingled with boots, catoalls, etc.
When .order was restored, the general an-
nounced that he would make a further
communication to the reichstag upon the
case of Lieutenant von Brusewitz when he
had 'obtaimd the sanction of the emperor.
Herr Lenzmann, Radical, followed with
a fiery speech, in which he defended the
rights of civilians against the brutal and
wantOn assaults of officers.
Herr Lenzmann was followed by Dr.
Bachem, Clerical? who spoke in a similar
At the conclusion of Dr. Bachem’s m4
marks the president of the chamber rose
and in grave accents expressed regret that
General von Gossler, the war minister,
was not a member of the house, so that he
(the president) might call him to order for
having said that the incitement of hatred
of military officers had been carried into
the house.
The president’s remarks were greeted
with mingled cheers and hisSes. The speech
of General von Gossler was then assailed
in strong terms by Herr Bebel, one of the
Social Democratic leaders, who declared
that it was an insult to the rights of civil-
ians. .
Herr Bebel also criticised the emperor’s
recent utterances to the recruits, which be
characterized as bordering upon madness
and calculated to strain the allegiance of
the people. “We could as well,” he said,
“hang up the kaiser’s uniform in the Un-
ter den Linden and demand that the pass—
ing crowd render homage. "’ In the course
of his speech Herr Bebel said that General
von Gossier’s remarks condoning the case
of Lieutenant von Brusewitz might please
the military circle, but they could not “be
called the remarks of a. gentleman.
At this point the president intervened
and called Herr Bebel to order.
Herr Bebel, resuming his speech, said
that the style of General von Gossler’s ad-
dress had provoked his (Bebél’s) remark.

moted to the rank of commodore in a few
months, and could then have retired with

HAVANA, Nov. 18.-.—No news, Official or
otherwise, is obtainable here“ concerning
the movements of Captain General-Wayler
and his army, Which is supposedto be in
phrsuitpof the insurgent forces under An-
tonio Macao in the province of Pinar‘del
Rio. NO news from a. Spanish force ithhe
field, as a rule, jmeans bad news. and the
insurgents are makingthe ‘most of the-sit-
uation by circulating reports of Spanish
ggfeats. ‘In truth,3however,'5there seems to
ground for the“ bel‘i'ef that athecaptain
general has not metwith'thesuccesshe an-
ticipated, and,'5{wh3ile-ihe: _‘is reported to be
moving along 'the-‘anrtherngaaI-t ’Of. .Pinar

of him and. ;, Exist" {oi-from the jtro‘cha, or
military line, which L’WOuld indicate the
ossibility of the insurgents turning the
nish flank and making it difficult for
the captain general to return to Havana.
This, however, is conjecture, no accurate
newo being allowed to leak out from the
ofices of the headquarters staff in the
palaCe.
From a. private source this afternoon it
‘Was said that Maceo, hitherto understood
to be occupying positions between Can-
delaria and Artemisa, has moved south of
the former town, going westward toward
the mountains of Guano. Then, again, an—
other rumor has it that he is pushing a
Strong force through the swamps south of
the trocha. Both reports are given for
what they are worth.
Aggressive Insurgents.
On the other hand, it is no longer denied
that the insurgents have captured the two
quite important towns of Cascorro and
Guaimara in Puerto Principe, as intimated
some time ago in these dispatches, in spite
of official denials tO-the contrary, and there
is no doubt that an insurgent army Of
about 10,000 men is advancing upon the
city of Puerto Principe, capital of the
province of that name.
The captain general yesterday was ex-
pected to arrive at Candelaria, and the
Spanish officials here attribute the alleged
retrograde movement of the insurgents
under Maceo to this move upon the part of
the Spanish commander. The latter’s ar-
rival at Candelaria, however, has not-yet
been announced, and there is no denying
that a feeling of considerable anxiety can
be noticed at the Spanish headquarters
here. Since the departure of the captain
general for the front a. number of officers
have been on duty night and day at the
palace as if awaiting important news,
which as yet has failed to reach them.
The exact whereabouts of Maximo Go-
mez is also apparently unknown here, the
movements against Puerto Principe being
conducted by Galixto Garcia, according to
report, and the insurgents’ friends here in-
timate that Maximo Gomez 'is certain to
be heard from shortly, as he must create a
diversion as near as possible to Havana in
order to prevent the dispatch Of further re-
enforcerncnts to the captain general, who
as it is is receiving from Havana every
man who can be spared from active duty
about the fortifications.
Defending Puerto Principe.
The city Of Puerto Principe is being
placed in the strongest possible state of
defense, but the insurgents are said to
have with them a. large number of carts
with which they propose to carry away
the booty which they anticipate capturing
when the capital of the province falls.
Castelianos, the Spanish commander who
was announced to have defeated the in-
surgents in any number of engagements
and to have relieved Cascorro and Guai-
mare. in Puerto Principe, is understood to
be retreating as quickly as ‘-his troops can
move upon the city of Puerto Principe in
order to take part in its defense.
The insurgents operating against that
city are carrying on the work of destruc-
tion, and have destroyed with dynamite a
large number of bridges on the railroad
running from Nuevitas to Cascorro, Guai-
mara and Guamarillo. This was done in
order to prevent the passage of the Spanish
force over that road to take them in the
rear.
Cuban Surgeon Killed by Spaniards.
WILMINGTON, Del., Nov. 18.—Word was
received in this city by Cuban sympa-
thizers that Dr. Pedro Betancourt, a sur-
geon in the Cuban army and one of those
prominent in the revolutionary movement,
has been killed by the Spaniards. Dr.
Pedro was one of those arrested in this
city in September, 1895, on the charge of
filibuster-lug and Was subsequently acquit-
ted. Soon after his trial he got away to
Cuba. with an expedition. Before his de-
parture he said that he never expected to
return alive. He was stationed in Cuba
at one of the hospitals which fell into the
hands of the Spanish troops.
The Loan Over-subscribed.
MADRID, Nov. 18.-——Owing to the crowd
in attendanc: ’ 1'. the opening of the sub-
scriptions for the new loan, the bank was
kept open until midnight. The loan has
been oversubscribed in Madrid alone, and
the total subscriptions will probably ex-
cecd 500,000,000 pesetas.
Printers In Trouble.
KANSAS CITY, Nov. 18.—A strike or
lockout of all the union printers, pressmen,
feeders, helpers and bookbinders in this
city employed by the firms who are mem-
bers of the employing printers’ organiza«
tion, the Typothetae, is threatened. The
trouble is over the refusal of the Typo-
graphica-l union to call off its boycott re-
cently declared against the Hudson-Kim-
berly Publishing company, a nonunion
house. -

SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 18.—Moses

The Trial of the Famous Pencil Will Case
Begun In San Francisco.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 17.—-'I'he trial of
the James G. Fair will case was begun to-
day before Judge Black, the question to be
decided being the authenticity of the so
called pencil will. The contest against
this document, which vans originally Of-
fered for probate by the children of the
testator, was begun by Charles L. Fair,
the son. The daughters, Mrs. Oelrichs
and Miss Virginia Fair, were for a long
This neutrality was due, however, rather
to an idea. of their counsel that the Will
could be put out of court in some more
simple proceeding than an elaborate trial
before a jury. ‘This idea has been aban-
doned, but as the record stands, it is not
a contest at the last moment.
The proponents of the trust will, of
whom W. S. Goodfellow is the principal,
take no part in the present contest. They
are opposed to the pencil will, but are
holding their rights in reserve. If the
pencil will is proved in this contest, they
have still the right to come in with asec-
the probate of the will. Mrs. Nettie Cra-
ven, who claims to have been Senator Fair’s
wife, is but indirectly interested in the
establishment of the pencil will. If it
should be proved, it will be valuable cor-
roborative evidence in support of the deeds
to property attributed to Fair, of which
she is the beneficiary. Those deeds are
likewise written in pencil. .
The property aflected by the contest is
valued at from $15,000,000 to $20,000,000.
The contestants of the will have brought
from New ,York Daniel T. Amos and
David N. Carvalho to act as experts on
handwriting.
No More Schoniburzk Line.
LONDON, Nov. 17.—Thc Times expresses
confidence that the prudence and justice of
the United States will prevent any reckless
or dangerous application of the Monroe
doctrine. The Chronicle says: “The
Schomburgk line has utterly vanished. It
is merely absurd to pretend that Lord Salis-
bury has not retired. England’s recogni-
tion of the Monroe doctrine will make it
very difficult for any other power to refuse
to recognize it.”

Beyond honor. a
Among the many good things told
some years ago of Colonel Utley, well
known as a Wisconsin editor, and also
as the hero of more than one military
story, is a little incident which illus-
trates his ability to make a good—na-
tured joke. , .
During the war, while Colonel Utley
was in command of a Wis'consin regi-
ment stationed in Kentucky, he at-
tained some notoriety by. allowing his
. men to harbor and. protect a poor
time neutral, and so far as the record 2

negro boy who had escaped from his
master brought suit for his value
against Colonel Utley.
One day the colonel went from his
home to Milwaukee, and while there
he met a friend who asked him how
his case was progressing.
“Very well,” replied the 00‘ vol. “1
think I shall win it, althoug? l have

kee bar against me.”
“Why, he isn’t our smartest lawyer
by any means," said the friend, with
evident surprise. 1..
“Oh, certainly hells,” responded the
colonel, with conviction.
“How do you know?" persisted his
friend.
“Know! Why, man alive, he ac-
knowledged it himself!"
Why He Pursued Ber. .
“Why do you pursue me?” she im-
plored, that being the most obvious
thing to implore.
The miscreant gesticulated

“To make people read some patent

answered, with a harsh, cruel laugh.
