AIDED BY APATRIOT BAND Rumors inml-lavana. that She Was Allowed to Escape by Gen. Wey- ler’s Orders—He Wanted to Pro- tect Berez. Havana, Oct. 9.—Senorita Evangelina Cossio Cisneros, the beautiful young Cuban" patriot who escaped from the Casa de Recodigas, is new on her way to the United States. The escape of Senorita Cisneros was discovered yesterday morning when the Spanish prison guards called the roster of Recogidas. . She was missing, and a. hasty exam— ination of her cell was made. It was found that one of the bars that con- fined her had been filed through and bent outward, making an aperture just large enough to admit the passage of her body. From the manner in which the steel bar was bent outward the prison au- thorities concluded that she alone could not have forced her way, but that aid was given to her by outsiders. Cusn in an Uproar. . The Casa de Recogidas was in an up: roar in an instant. The corridors rang with hurrying feet and in short order several of the staff of guards were placed under arrest, suspected of con- nivance or carelessness. The surrounding country was searched and every effort made to re- capture the' young patriot, but the searchers returned empty-handed to the wrathful censure of the governor of the prison. O SENORITA CIBNERCS, Senorita. 'Cisnero's escape is believed in Havana. to be the work of a band of young Cubans who were leagued for that purpose. According to the story, they ,managed to get two women ar- rested and placed in cells near Senori- ta Cisneros. These were furnished with _ tools and false keys and they entered‘ her cell. At a. signal four of the band broke the cell window irons and after an hour’s work the Senorita was re— leased. Wns It Weyler’s Plan? A rumor is in circulation in Havana that this was done by Weyler’s plan- ning; that he wished to protect his ally, Berez, and that, as he was to be rtcallcd, he was afraid that his suc— cessor would deal harshly with Berez and release the girl. This, he felt, would be a reflection upon his actions in the case, hence he concluded that the safest way was to let the girl es- cape and end the case. A good many Cubans think that this is the true solu- tion of the case. No general who has led the Cuban forces to victory over the Spaniards has attained the world-wide prom- inence of Senorita Cisneros. She destroyed and trampled upon a portrait of Gen. Weyler; she conspired against.the Spanish crown; she at- tempted the life of Gov. Berez, of the Isle of Pines—at least, this is what the Spanish charged her with doing—and she was flung into Casa de Recogidas with the outcast women of the town. Took Father's Place. The father of Senorita Cisneros is Senor Cossio, who was a Cuban officer during the ten years’ war. He was ar- rested and sent to the Isle of Pines for his patriotism when the present strug- gle menaced Spanish rule in Cuba. As his band of followers was thus left without a leader, beautiful Senorita. Cisneros offered to place herself at their head and lead them to the main. body of Gomez’s army. ‘ But a member of the band betrayed her into Spanish hands, and on July 27, 1896, she was sent to the Isle of Pines to share her father's captivity. As Senorita Cisneros'is young. beau- tiful and vivacious, she attracted the attention of Gov. Berez. He became in- fatuated with her and made her the unwilling recipient of his attention. One day Gen. Cossio and several other Cubans resented an insult to Evangelina. This is what the Spaniards construed as an attempt upon the life of Gov. Berez. Senorita Cisneros fled to the home of a supposed friend and was delivered again into the clutches of the_>prison authorities. American Sympathiel Aroused. American sympathy was at once aroused for the beautiful young pa- triot. Consul-General Lee left noth- ing undone in his effort to secure her release. The services and sympathy of even the Queen Regent .of Spain and the Pope were enlisted. Petitions were signed and forwarded to-the Court of Spain, and it was only after‘amany obstacles had been over- come that anything was done to allev viate the unhappy conditions of the beautiful young prisoner.

When an incident like the following occurs right here at home it is bound to carry weight with our readers. When so many strange occurrences go the rounds of the press, are published as facts when the intelligent reader - knows they cannot be true, there is no wonder that people become skeptical. On one subject skepticism is rapidly disappearing. This is due to the act- ual personal experience of our citizens, and their public utterances regarding them. The doubter must doubt no more in the face of such evidence as this. The public statement of a reput- able citizen living right—here at home, one whom you can see every day, leaves no ground for the skeptic to stand on.

The pain often extended down into my limbs and was frequently so severe that I sup- pOSed I had rheumatism. I was advised to use Dean’s Kidney Pills, and began takingthem.

'b.—Emmet B. Gibson. who, according to ‘the police of this and other cities, 318 the prince of all- around swindlers and check kiters, was arraigned in “Jefferson Market Police Court yesterday on the specific charge of having passed a worthless check for $640 upon the proprietors of the Imperial Hotel. ' The other charges against this man, if proved and pressed, would. send him to prison for many more years than he is likely to live, for it is alleged that during his career he has obtained, - in various ways that were illegal, over four hundred thousand dollars. - His victims, it is said, are numbered by the score. From New York to the Mississippi his name is known; from New York to the Mississippi he has “worked” his schemes. He has the reputation of stopping at nothing to 'gain his ends. - He thought nothing, it is stated, of obtaining thousands from some mil- lionaire and then of defrauding a small hotel out of a paltry sum. He got $1,600 from Henry Clews & 00., it is alleged, and many thousands from John Wanamaker. In Washington there are many citi- zens who remember the suave Gibson to their sorrow. Besides the Imperial Hotel and the Hotel Netherland, it is alleged Gibson swindled these hostelries: Continental, Walton and Stratford, Philadelphia; Buchtel, Akron; Du Quesne, Pittsburg; . Hollenden and Weddell, Cleveland, and Cadillac, De- troit. When arraigned, Gibson had nothing to say, except that he was innocent, but the victim of circumstances. He was held in $1,000 bail for examination on Oct. 12. , “I am entirely innocent,” prisoner to the reporters. more guilty than you are.” An attorney, representing the Ger- man National Bank, of Pittsburg, ap- peared in court and served papers on the defendant for contempt of 'court.

Boston, Mass, Oct. 9.—-Emmet C. Gibson, who is under arrest in New .York, is remembered by several prom- inent business men here, who have had dealings with him during the past three or four years. Only one of them, however, Herbert B. Church, seems to have suffered severely. Mr. Church claims that Gibson’s security given for a $20,000 loan proved worthless, and caused Mr. Church's failure. Mr. Church said he did not realize one cent on the securities he held from Gibson. !. GOV. PINGREE RETURNS. Michigan’s Chief Executive Says Venezu- ela is a Great Country. New York, Oct. 9.—Gov, H. S. 'Pin- " gree, of Michigan, whose whereabouts and business movements have lately puzzled the entire nation, left for home last evening. He arrived from Venez- uela yesterday morning on the Red D line steamer Venezuela, and when seen at Quarantine looked the picture of perfect health. He said it yvas his first‘ vacation in nine years, and he enjoyed the trip immensely. “Venezuela. is a great country for young men,” said the Governor. “The opportunities are many and living is cheap. - “No, I didn’t go down to invest any- money. It was "simply a recreation trip I had planned many months ago. “But about my reception in Venez- uela. I tell you it was all any Ameri- can could desire. Ignacie Andrade, the new President-elect, called on me, and under an escort of about a hundred soldiers we took a drive about the city. The band played ' ‘The Star—Spangled Bannu‘,’ and you can believe it sound- ed good to my ears. "The new President has the kindliest feeling towards the United States, and has, among other things in his office, a bust of Grover Cleveland. "Just think of it! 'Flour is $15 a bar- rel there, and potatoes as high as $2 a bushel! In Michigan last year you could buy potatoes for 10 cents a bush- el. But it will be some time before you ‘can do that in Venezuela. The country is rich, but undeveloped.” Is IT MRS. FLEMING? 'Washlngton Advices Suy She in Round for the Yukon- New York, Oct. 9,—Acording to a dis- patch from Port Townsend, Wash., Mrs. Mary Alice Almont Livingstone Fleming, who was acquitted of the charge of poisoning her mother in this city last year, is at St. Michaels, at S the mouth of the Yukon River, bound~ for the Yukon gold fields. The 'dispatch from Port Townsend states that Mrs. Fleming has been at St. Michaels ever since She arrived on the steamer Humboldt. She lived in a tent, and was protected by 'a-lad of ~14, whom she called her nephew. They are now on the Seattle No. 1, heading up the river. She is said to have grub-staked two men in Seattle, but they had differences going up on the steamer, and the latest talk was that she proposed doing her own min- mg. She said, it is claimed, that she rep- resented a. New York syndicate. She had a' pocketful of gold, and paid all her gallant woodchoppers liberally; often refreshing them all with beer, which costs there about one dollar a bottle. .______.___———— Pflnceu Klulnnl to Go to Hawaii.
