WAS DISGUISED As A BOY
Spanish Suspicious Not Awakened
by the Passenger on the Ward
Liner Seneca, Whose Captain Was
Ignorant of Her Identity.
New York, Oct. 14.—-The Ward
line steamer Seneca, which arrived
here yesterday from Mexican ports
via Havana, , brought ‘ from the
last-named city Miss Evangelina Cosio
y Cisneros, the young Cuban who re-
cently escaped from the Spanish prison
at Belen, near the Cuban capital. The .,
Seneca was met at Quarantine by the
tugboat Fred Lohman,. to which the
young Woman was transferred and
brought to this city. Miss Cosio y Cis—
neros were no hat when she descended
a ladder from the Seneca to the tug-
boat, and had neither wrap nor cloak.
She was dressed in a red crepon waist,
with a show of lace trimming at the
throat and a black skirt.
Inquiryas to how the fair fugitive
managed to get aboard the Seneca after
her escape from prison shows that, dis-
guised as a boy, with her long black
hair pinned at the top of her' head and
concealed by a soft sailor cap, she
walked aboard the Seneca at 5.30 p. m.
and two and a half
hours later the steamship started for
this city. She brought no baggage with
her. She had a. ticket calling for trans-
portation that was made out in the
name of Mr. Juan Solo, and when the
ship was one day out from Morro Cas-
tle the young woman disclosed her
identity to the stewardess, Mrs. Berri
and 'he latter lent her the oytfit that
she were when she came ashore to-day.
Then to make things right the name
of Mr. Juan $013. on the passenger list
had to be changed, but this was an
easy matter, the word “Miss” being
pasted over “Mn,” and an “a” being
added to Juan. -
Slipped Past Spies.
How the escaped prisoner managed to
get on board the Seneca unobserved is
a wonder to Capt. Stevens, the master
of the ship. The Seneca, on her way to
this city from Tampico, touched at I-Ia-
vana at 6 Saturday morning, and re-
mained there all that day, until 8
o’clock that night.
As is customary two detectives em-
ployed by the Spanish Government
were stationed at the head of the gang-
plank during the entire time that the
Seneca remained there. Just before the
vessel started to resume her voyage the
Chief of Police, accompanied by his
deputy and secretary, boarded the ship,
but made no attempt to search her.
'Capt, Stevens says this in itself is
peculiar, because they knew that the
young woman had escaped on Thurs-
day, and on former occasions, when the
Seneca was believed to have suspects
on board, the ship was searched from
keel to deck. This has happened three
. or four times, Capt. Stevens says.
Another mystery to Capt. Stevens is
how Miss Cosio y Cisneros managed to
procure a transportation ticket. Since
the beginning of the present insurrec-
tion the authorities at Havana, in con-
nection with the New York and Cuba
Mail Steamship Company, to which the
Seneca belongs, have made it a rule
that tickets for transportation to this
city be sold to those who show pass-
ports only. This ‘rule has been strictly
adhered to. _
To further offset the possibility of
suspects leaving the island a. rule that
_ no tickets should be sold on the steam-
er under any circumstances was also
enforced. The supposition is that a
passport was substituted.
Miss Cosio y Cisneros turned out to
be a good sailor. She occupied state—
room No. 3 on the starboard side, aft
the .‘lfllll saloon.
She spent a good deal of time in her
room, but made the acquaintance of all
her fellow passengers, who did all they
could to make her trip pleasant.’Arnong
these were Hon. Walter B. Baker,
United States Consul at Sagua. la
Grande; H. T. Stewart, Mrs. B. Lastrc
and Mrs. Del Real.
Fellow Passenger’s Story.
Miss Cosio y Cisneros was accom-
panied on the trip by a; reporter of the
Journal. Mr. Stewart, another male
‘passen’ger, told a reporter that the lady
appeared in the saloon for breakfast
the morning following the ship’s de-
parture from Havana. “I talked fre-
quently with her,” he said. “She speaks
no English, but I speak Spanish fairly
well, and we managed to get along well
together. She related her exploit in
getting out of jail, and told me that she
had come aboard in male attire; that
she had showed her passport to the de-
tectives at the gangplank, who had
also asked her her name. ‘I made my
voice as deep as possible when I said
Juan Sola,’ she told me, and we had a
good laugh over it. KWhen We sighted
Cape Hatteras light the young woman
asked What light it was, and when told
that it was an American beacon she
knelt downin the saloon and prayed.
After that she wept a good deal from
joy, I imagine. Now that I look at it,
she must have been all strung up with
excitement ‘over her experiences, and
when she saw the light she could con-
tain herself no longer, but simply over-
flowed. That’s what I think now.”
Fifteen Strikers Arrested.
Pittsbu-rg, Oct. 14,—The first Whole-
sale arrest of strikers at the De-
Armistt mines was made at Sandy
Creek yesterday. Twelve members of
a 'brass band and three striker-s Were
stopped on the road to the mine by
Chief Deputy Sheriff Evans and four-
teen other deputies and placed under
arrest. Chief Deputy Sheriff Evans
said that the men were riotous. This
was denied by all the prisoners at the
Sheriff's office. Three of 'the musicians
said that they were playing a march
when the deputies stopped them.

McKEIINA HIS SUCCESSOB
Judge Goff May Enter the Cabinet
and Be Succeeded by Assistant
Secretary of State Day as Attor-
hey-General.
Washington, Oct. 14.—Associate Jus-
tice Stephen Johnson Field; of the
United States Supreme Court, Has
made formal application to President
McKinley to be retired from the Bench,
under the law allowing members of
that court to be retired when 70 years
old. .
Attorney-General Joseph McKenna,
of California, will most likely be nomi-
nated to succeed Justice Field on Dec.
6, when Congress convenes, five days
after the retirement of Justice Field
takes effect. -
According to one story, the accuracy
of which cannot be vouched for at
present, Assistant Secretary of State
William H. Day is to become Attorney-
General, SecretarySherman is to retire
to private life, Secretary of the Navy
Long is to be transferred to the State
Department and Assistant Secretary of
the Navy Theodore Rbosevelt is to be
advanced to the head of the Navy De-
partment. .
The President is seriously consider-
ing the appointment‘of Mr. Day as .At-
torney-General, and the succession to
Attorney-General McKenna is believed
to lie between Mr. _Day and Col. J. J.
McCook, of New York. Col. McCook
having Once declined the Interior‘ De-
partment portfolio, some doubt is ex-
pressed as to whether he would-now
accept the Attorney-Generalship, but it
is known that he would prefer that
office to any other in the Cabinet.
Justice Field has been eligible for re-
tirement since Nov. 4, 1886.
Efforts were made during the Cleve-
land Administration to induce Mr.
Field to retire, but he was determined
not to give President Cleveland an op-
portunity to appoint a Democrat to
succeed- him.
Field’s Great Career.
Justice Field is 81 years old. When
his retirement shall go into effect—
Dec. 1—he will have served longer than
any Justice on this Bench. His term
of service will then be thirty—four
years, seven months and twenty days.
The law prescribes that he shall, when
retired, receive the full Associate Jus-
tice‘s salary—$10,000 a year—for life.
Until Justice Field's advent to this
Bench the record for length of service
was held by Chief Justice Marshall.
Field was appointed by President Lin-
coln. , .
lFALSE INSURANCE RETURNS.
Startling- Revelations from Investi-
gation of a. Life Association.
Hartford, Ct., Oct. 14.—The directors
of the National Life Association have
admitted to Insurance Commissioner
Betts that millions of dollars of insur-
ance had been kept on the books and
reported to the directors when pay-
ments on this business had not been
made since 1892; that President Dolphin
S. Fletcher had been not once, but con—
tinually, a party to misrepresentation
to the directors; that he had been re—
sponsible for systematic false state-
ments as to the business of the com-
pany, andthat he had compelled all
under his direction in the company to
do his bidding, and make the state-
ments he ordered, or walk the plank.
No one was prepared for such a rev-
elation. It is said that when an exami-
nation was determined upon twelve
millions of alleged insurance reported
in annual statements was marked off..
President Fletcher, whose resignation,
with that of Secretary H. T. Braman,
has been accepted, was not present
when the revelations were made. Mr.
Braman, with tears in his eyes, told
how he had to do the president’s bid-
ding or lose his $6,000 position when he
had a family dependent upon him.
Commissioner Betts said the presi-
dent had not been ignorant of the false
returns, and must have known all about
the two millions on the books, but not
reported to-the State Department. He
also averred that policies have been
shaved. ,
It is stated that Mr. Fletcher, who,
though, no longer connected with the
company, has been at the office every
day, will be requested to deliver his
keys and refrain from interfering with
the work in progress by even so much
as being present to see what is going
on.
Mr. Fletcher has endeavored to ex-
plain away some of the points made by
the State officials. Steps have been
taken towards a reorganization of the
company, which is still on a firm finan-
cial basis. Mr. Fletcher and his family
own a majority of the $100,000 capital.
Bridegroom 87, Bride 90.
Rochester, Oct. 14.—Announcement
has been received in this city of the
approac ing wedding of Benjamin F.

Watertown. The ceremony will take
place at the home of the bride on Oct.
20. The prospective bridegroom is in
his eighty-eighth year and the bride is
90 years old. Mrs. Sherman is reputed
to be worth over $1,000,000.
