CORRESPONDENCE WANTED.
The Treatment of Julio Sanguilly to Be
‘ Investigated—The Alleged Brutal
lVIurder of Correspondent Go-
vin by the Spaniards.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 7.—-Less than a score
of senators were in the senate chamber
when the session convened today.
Mr. Cullom (Rep, Ills.) reported ad-
versely from the committee on foreign re-
lations the bill to grant $1,500 to the wife
of flex-Consul Waller, the United States
representative to Madagascar, pending an
inquiry into the case, and the bill was in-
definitely. postponed.
Mr. Hale (Rep, Me.) secured the adop-
' tion of a resolution directing the secretary
of state to send to the senate a statement
as to the action of the president or secre-
tary of state touchingthe recognition of
any foreign people or power as an 1nde—
pendent government and the correspond-
ing action of other branches of the United
States government.
Mr. Pettigrew (Rep, S. D.) secured
agfeement to a resolution calling on the
secretary of the interior for a statement of
the amount of. subsidies paid by the Union
and Central Pacific railroads to the Pacific
Mail steamship line.
Mr. Gall (Dem.. Fla.) was then recog-
nized for a speech on his Cuban resolu—
tion, introduced yesterday, concerning the
condemnation of Julio Sanguilly'at Ha-
vana. Mr. Gall referred to the report from
the state department yesterday as to the
killing of Charles Govin and said the re-
port omitted many important features
which would have disclosed that Consul
General Lee believed Govin had been tied
to a tree and chopped to pieces. As show-
ing the facts in the case Mr. Call read a
letter from a gentleman in Havana, who,
Mr. Gall said, would occupy a responsible
place as a member of one of the legislative
branches of the government. The name
was withheld. It gave a graphic dscrip-
tion of a visit to Cabanas fortress at Ha-
vana in company with Consul General
Access to the fortress was secured
with difficulty, it being open to outsiders
only on Wednesdays and then after 24
hours’ notice. The writer said that he and
General Lee were escorted within the pris-
on, when eight or ten prisoners, some of
them Americans, were brought out.
The Fate of Govin.
'In a circle about them were ranged 100
Spanish soldiers heavily armed. One of
the prisoners was a man who had been
with Charles Govin at the time of his cap-
ture. The prisoner stated that the Span-
iards tied him and Govin together. Govin
attempted to show his United States citi-
zenship papers and his credentials as an
American newspaper correspondent. But
the Spanish commander struck these from
his hand and turned Govin over to the
cavalry, while the other prisoner was sent
to the Cabanas fortress.
The writer suited also that from other
reliable sources it was established that
Govin subsequently had been tied to a tree
and chopped to pieces. Julio Sanguilly
was another of the prisoners seen during
this visit to the fortress. The writer de-
scribed him as an old man whose hair had
turned gray, and who appeared to be over
60 years old. Sanguilly told a pathetic
story to the visitors as to the injustice of
his trial and conviction and begged that
the United States investigate the case with
a view of establishing that he was prose-
cuted for what he might have done and
not what he had done.
' Mr. Call again stated that this letter
came from a prominent public man of the.
United States, a northern man and a. Re-
publican, whd had been highly honored in
this country and would soon return to a
- high public place. —
After reading other letters reciting the
cruel methodscmployed in Spanish pris-
ons Mr. Call declared that these prisons
were stained with the. blood of American
citizens. It needed but an investigation to
unmask the extent of the butche\ry, he said.
The senator asserted that a nation which
failed to protect its citizens justly deserved
the execration of the civilized world.
Mr. Call spoke of the reports that the
powers of Europe would coerce the United
States. What effect, he asked, would such
a concert of European nations have when
the sympathy of mankind and the senti-
ment of the Christian world were with the
struggling patriots of Cuba? It would be
a. futile intervention, even if attempted, for
no statesman of Europe could successfully
appeal to the masses of his people to strike
at those engaged in a struggle for inde-
pendence and liberty.
At the close of Mr. Call’s Cuban speech
the senate agreed to his resolution asking
the secretary of state for all correspondence
in the case of Julio Sanguilly.
The senate then went into executive ses-
sion, Mr. Lodge stating that it was for the
purpose of considering two treaties.
In the House.
Mr. Grosvcnor (Rep. , O. ) created a slight
flurry at the opening of the session of the
house today by rising to a question of
privilege. He called attention to the fact
that on May 20 last he introduced a series
of resolutions requesting information of
the several departments of the government
relating to the administration of the civil
service law. The resolution was favorably
acted, upon by the committee and on June
5 was adopted. No response, he said, had
been received from any of the departments.
While he recognized, he said sarcastically,
that under the present civil service law the
departments were greatly crippled he felt
justified in raising the question as to
whether the demands of congress should
not be respectfully treatedu He therefore
offered a (resolution calling on the several
departments for statements as to why they
had failed to comply with the former reso-
lution. ' '
Mr. 'Terry (Dem., Ark.) showed a dispo-
sition to contest the . point as to whether
the resolution involved a question of privi-
lege, but when be ascertained that it re-
lated to the civil service he acquiesced with:
seeming alacrity. “If there is anything
you can ~find out about the civil service,”
said he, “I shall be very glad to have you-
discover it.” ,
The resolution was accordingly passed.
The resolution passed Inst J 11110 calls on
the several departments for information as.
to the number of employees in each who
have died, resigned or been removed since-
March 4, 1893, the number’appointed un-
der the civil service rules and the number
not appointed under such rules who are
now covered by the extension of the civil
service rules. . '
The general debate on the Loud bill to
amend the law relating to second clas
mail matter was then resumed. '
Messrs. Millikan (Rep.,}:Me.), Wagnpr
’1'tep., Pa), Tracy (Rep, Mo'.), Morse
(_.{ep., Mass.) and Mr. Bingham (Rep,
Pa.) made brief speeches against the bill.
One Cabinet Place Fixed.
CLEVELAND, Jan. 7.-—President Elect
McKinley and Marcus A. Hanna have at
last got down to the serious work of con-
structing a cabinet for the new adminis-
tration; There seems to be no possible
doubt that Cornelius N. Bliss of N ew York
, has been offered and» accepted the secre-
taryship of the United ‘ States navy under
the new administration. It is said this ar-
BLISS:
CORNELIUS N.
rangement was accomplished at the home
of Chairman Hanna in the presence and
with the consent of the New York member
of the prospective cabinet. It is the first
definite step toward the construction of
the cabinet, which will probably be fol-
lowed by a definite understanding with
Senator Allison, whom Major McKinley
will meet in Canton this afternoon.
The visit of the treasurer of the national
Republican committee, Mr. Bliss, was ar-
ranged with so much secrecy that it was
only the chance meeting of a Cleveland ac.
quaintance of Mr. Bliss at the railroad sta-
tion on his departure for New York that
divulged his presence in Cleveland. Mr.
_Bliss arrived in Cleveland, however, darly
on Monday morning and was driven di-
rectly to Mr. Hanna's house, where he re-
maincd in consultation both with. the pres-
ident elect and the national chairman un~
til late in the afternoon.
With the appointment of Mr. Bliss goes
the assurance that Mr. Whitelaw Reid of
New York will be the next minister plenh
potentiary to the court of St. James.

phaned German Girls to Bowery—Cer-
tain Days Set Apart for \VeddingsuFoul
Couples are Ready. ~.
Here is a brand-new plan to make
brides: “
To save German orphan girls be-
coming old maids and ”from the springs
and traps set for them‘ by vice here,
Lazarus Morgenthau, a philanthropist,
has founded an organization which he
calls the “Greater New York German
Orphan Dowry Society.”
Many a bright, good, honest girl
coming to New York and finding her-
self alone and unprotected and unable
to secure employment, is irretrievably
last in the maelstrom o pleasure
which whirls forever near the brink
of poverty. To shield them and pro
Vido a sufficient dowry to enable them
to marry suitable men, Mr. Morgen-
thau has evolved the plan of his so-
ciety, after devoting thirty-eight years
of observation and study to the sub
iect.
He conceived the idea for the first
time on seeing Ernest Possart, the di~
rector of the Royal, Court Theatre in
Munich, play Lessing’s “Nathan the
Wise.”
Out of gratitude to this great expon-
ent of the dramatic art, for the char-
itable suggestion furnished by his ren-
ilition of Nathan, Mr. Morgenthau has
made Possart’s birthday one of the So-
ciety’s festival days, on which mar-
riages of the orphans under its care
solemnize their marriage. There will
be other festival days —thc anniver-
saries of the birthdays of George
Washington, of the late Mrs. Oswald
Ottendorfer and of the late Jesse Sc-
ligman.
On each of these days four couples
will be led to the altar.
The patronage of the society will be
extended to all German orphan girls
irrespective of religious creed. The
four who are to enter wedlock on the
initial festival will be recruited ‘respec-
tively from the Roman Catholic, the
Protestant and the Hebrew "persua-
sions, and the fourth will be the daugh-
‘tcr of a Free Mason of no particular
religious creed whatever.
The Board of Directors will consist
of 200 members, one-half Christians,
the other half Hebrews.
At present Mr. Morgenthau esti-
mates that the society will be able to
give a dowry of only $100 to each girl
at her marriage. But he believes that
it will not be long before the society’s
financial condition will warrant the
bestowal of a much larger sum and
also the marrying OE of a far greater
number of orphan girls than the pre-
sent number of sixteen a year.
Mr. Morgenthau is eighty-one years
old, but still hearty and robust and as
enthusiastic as a youth. He says he has
assurances of support from many of
the wealthiest. and most influential citi-
zens of New'Yorkr—New York Jour~
ual.

The Queen’s Coronation. Ring.
The Queen’s coronation ring formed
the subject of an extremely interest.
ing paper, read by Dr. Wickham Legg,
i“. S. A., at the general meeting of the
[loyal Archaeological Institute, held at
'20 Hanover square. The ring never
leaves her Majesty’s possession, and is
worn by her every evening; but by
gracious permission several photo-
graphs were made of it, and a set of
these has been given by Mr. Legg to
the institute. It consists of a band of
gold, varying from two to five millime-
tres in breath, with a large rounded
sapphire thirteen millimetres. across.
and set “a jour." Over it is a cross of
line rubies. and it is surrounded by
fine white brilliants. Tracing the his-
tory of coronation, rings, the speaker
mentioned that they were held to sym-
bolize the wedding of" the Sovereign
with the nation. At the Queen’s coro-
nation it was regarded as an auspi-
cious omen, indicative of the close
bond which should exist—which this
generation has seen fulfilled—that the
ring should have fitted the royal fin-
ger very tightly. .
An Anecdote of George XV. Childs.
Here is a characteristic anecdote
about George W'. Childs: For some
time he had been buying his ink for
tile Lodger from a New York house.
One day he sent for the proprietor to
come to Philadelphia. The latter ap-
peared before him with misgivings.
that there were shoals
ahead. “I have one fault to find with
your ink,” said the owner of the Led-
ger abruptly. The visitor wanted to
know what the trouble was, and near-
ly fell off his chair when Childs re-
plied: “You don’t» charge enough for
it.” He promised to raise the price
immediately, and Childs gave a large
order.~New York Press.
