A REPUBLIC TO BE ESTABLISHED.

The Plans of tins New Government l.eing

Laid in Philadelphia Florida Ladies

liaising a Kevolntionary Fund—Details

of the Ueccnt l'attle in Which the Span

ish Soldiers Were Defeated.

TAMPA, Fla., April 2.—Sonor Rivero, editor of Cuba, has received a comiuuniI cation of a strong American club just organized at Atlanta, the members of which promise pecuniary support and if necessary active efforts in aiding the revolution in cuba. So nor Figueredo

has a similar letter from Ocala. The Cuban ladies of Tampa yesterday visited many of the cigar factories soliciting subscriptions for a large fair which they soon intend giving, all tho proceeds of which arc to go to the revolufionary fund.

J. M. Fernando/,, the assistant SpaiiI ish vice consul, is in rrceipt of a letter from Colon, in the Mantair/as province, which states that tin: negroes in many different places on the island, especially

Puerto Principe, have made manifestations in favor of the government and avow their readiness to enter the field to I light for the crown.

Tho letter also states that Macceo is a I very bravo man, 1 he best the Cubans have, but that he is considered a fanatic. It continues by saying that tho I better class of people discountenance the revolutionary movement, and that the government will grant no more concessions, but that if it becomes necessary they will send 200,000 troops to the island in the next month to quell the trouble.

An excursion will leave here Wodnes- ,- day night so that many Cubans can attend a massmeeting to be held at JackHonville Thursday night.

BATTLE IN THE MOUNTAINS.

The Spaniards Lost 5JT9 and the Cubans Only 08.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., April 2.—A special to The Citizen from Key West, says: Carlos Aguirre, who was chief of 70 men at Jaguy, Chico, Colon, and who recently arrived from Havana, accompanied by his brother, George Aguirre, says that at the battle in the mountains near Santiago de Cuba, March 24, when the Cubans were distributed in strong positions, and the Spaniards were formed in one body, trying to ascend, the attacking columns lost 27!) killed and wounded, including four officers. The Cubans' loss were I fS killed and about 50 wounded. The Cubans had a very advantageous position in this light and played havoc with their enemies ranks.

The Spanish troops landed at Havana last Monday and Tuesday, according to the statement of Mr. Aguirre, and are in poor condition. They are poorly clad, are without shoes and blankets, and many of them are mere boys,

Carlos Aguirre had an encounter with the son. of the chief of police of Havana, in which lie sustained a slight wound

on the head, and wounded his opponent. Mr. Aguirre says that the talk of General Sanguilly being a traitor is erroneons. The government, lie states, would be glad to have it so, and are taking every means to give it this appearance.

CUBAN REPUBLIC.

Sew l'linn of Government lieing Mapped Out in Philadelphia,.

PHILADELPHIA, April 2.—A secret conclave of tiie leaders of the CubanAmericans in this city has been called for tonight. The object of the gather-

ing is a secret, but it has been learned on the best authority that a plan of operation of the new7 government of Cuba is to be mapped out and the details arranged.

From private advices received here it seems certain that the insurgent leaders now in different parts of Cuba are preparing to concentrate their forces in one place, establish a republic, declare war and prepare to maintain their rights. The meeting of tonight will discuss this plan, and canvass for the new president and cabinet of the Cuban republic. Marcos Morales, president of the Cuban-

American league in Philadelphia, issued the call for the meeting.

ELECTION IN MICHIGAN.

A Very Light Vote Cast and the Kepublieaus Were Victorious. DETROIT, April 2.—In the election of a justice of the supreme court and twro regents of the university yesterday Michigan Republicans were again easily victorious. The vote was very light throughout the state, not to exceed half the vote of last fall being polled. The latest indications are that Moore, Republican, defeated MeGratli, Democrat, the present incumbent, by 25,000. The Republican plurality on governor in 1894 was 100,392. The Republican candidates for regents are elected by about similar plur dities.

Reports from tho city and township elections thus far show that tho Republicans have held their own for tho most part. The voters appeared to be apathetic and the interest of the women in the outcome of the objections of school trustees seems to have been no exception to the rule, as the women's vote as yet shows no increase.

Bnrrows' Successor.

KALAMAZOO, Mich., April 2.—From the returns at hand from the Third congressiomU district, Lieutenant Govornor Milnes is elected to succeed Julius C. Burrows in congress. A. M. Todd, who was the candidate of the combined opposition to Milnes, went out of Kalamazoo county witli 500 plurality to his credit, as against 1,000 for Burrows last fall. Todd's losses in the other counties, however, will give the election to Milnes by probably upward of 2,000.

llefufted to Allow the Figlit.

LITTLK ROCK, April 2.—Tho McCoyNeedham glove contest did not take place last night as advertised, Governor Clarke having refused to allow the ooutest, threatening to arrest all participants, spectators and all if the "go" was attempted. In Arkansas it is unlawfull to engage in a "prize fight, either with or without gloves." Needham and McCoy have agreed to meet before the Pastifhe Atnletic club of Meuupliis on April 10.

A MOTHER'S CRIME.

Poisons Her Daughter and Cuts ller Son's Throat With a Knzor. COLOIUUS, O., April 2.— Last Saturday Mrs. W. H. B. Williams, wTife of a real estate man residing at Grove City, a village about eight miles southeast of Columbus, arrived in the city with her three children—Annie, aged 14 Maud, aged 12, and Harry, aged 7—and registered at the Park hotel. Yesterday morning about 8 o'clock Mrs. Williams left the hotel and about 3 o'clock in the afternoon a chambermaid, who went to the room to put it in order, found two of the children, Maud and Harry, dead in bed, the latter with his throat cut. There was a bloody razor on the foot of the bed.

Annie said that when her mother went away she cautioned her not to go near the bed and to say nothing to any one about her absence.

Mr. Williams arrived later ill the afternoon, ami would not permit his daughter to talk. He and his daughter were locked up at the police station pending an investigation.

Shortly afterward Mrs. Williams was arrested. She showed no evidences of insanity and told rlio story of tho horri-*? bie crime in a calm voice. She said she had made up her mind last week to kill herself and her children and came to Columbus for that purpose. She secured some opium md all three took the drug Saturday night. It took effect only on the little girl, Maud. She then determined to secure a razor, and waited until yesterday morning. She first cut the boy's wrist, expecting him to bleed to death. He awakened, however, and then she cut his throat. The body of Maud was not touched by the razor.

Mrs. Williams then asked Annie to let her cut her wrist, but the child

Well-to-IJo Farmer Suicides.

ELKHART, Ind., April 2. Wilson Kehres, a well-to-do farmer, living four miles north of this city, committed suicide by shooting himself. Yesterday his body was found in a field terribly burned. It is thought that when he fired the fatal shot his clothes took fire. He was married and leaves a wife and four children. The reason advanced for the rash deed is attributed to despondency. His wife had filed a bill for divorce, and this so preyed upon his mind that he ended his existence.

PEACE NEGOTIATIONS.

Japan and China TVIay Come to Some Terms.

TREATY 0? PEACE PROBABLE.

The Money Indemnity Japan Will Ask

Will Do A'ery Considerable—Li Hung

Chang's Assailant Will Probably I5e Sent

to the 3lines of ^Northern Japan—The

Envoy Recovering.

WASHINGTON, April 2.—Now that the limited armistice has been proclaimed in the Chinese-Japanese trouble and that Li Hung Chang's wound is improving, it is anticipated that the resumption of peace negotiations will follow speedily and will be pushed with the view to securing a treaty of peace as early as possible. The indemnity and the form in which it shall be paid is one part of tho terms of peace which is be-.... ing watched with interest. S!

The money indemnity Japan will ask will be very considerable. There is no information to be had concerning the mode or maimer of payment nor whether it will stipulate the metal in which it shall be paid ,assuming that gold or silver, or both, must be paid. One suggestion made is that it may be payable in "credits" or largely in bonds. The financial probity of the Chinese is of tho highest, and the nation's reputation for prompt settlement of its pecuniary obligations is so high that it is beiieved its promises to pay would easily pass current with the Japanese, or with others in case the indemnity was arranged through private agencies.

News came to the Japanese legation yesterday confirming the Associated P^ess dispatches respecting the terms of the armistice. It stated that it would last 2J days unless sooner terminated by the breaking off of peace negotiations*:® and would include Shing-King, ShanTung and Pe-Chi-Li.

LI HUNG CHANG'S ASSAILANT.

lie Will Probably lie Sent to the Mines of Northern Japan.

WASHINGTON, April 2.—It is said at the Japanese legation that the young Japanese who shot Li Hung Chang probably will be sent to the mines of northern Japan to serve his life sentence. The locality is much like Siberia, and a sentence there is dreaded by the Japanese as little short of death. The official reports of the sentence make no reference to the trial or conviction. It is understood to be a civil trial, as a military trial wrould have resulted in death.

When the Japanese summarily punish those who attempted the life of the Russian crown prince, it raised an agitation in the Japanese parliament, as the government was accused of crowding the trial, and not according the usual rights of defense, in the desire to make amends to Russia. In tho present case the speed of the trial is accounted for by the fact that the offense is reainst the government

of .'Japan, and therefore treasonable. Dr. Schriba's report on his wound is regarded by the Japanese legation, as assuring his recovery. Sehriba is one of

DEPEW ON EDUCATION.

An Address Delivered at. the Convocation a of the Chicago University.

CHICAGO, April 2.—The convocation of Chicago university was in the Auditorium last night. Chauneey M. Depew delivered the address. In the course of his remarks Mr. Depew said: "The best use to wliich wealth can be applied is to assist these great universities, which are educating the youth of our land. "This institution which owes its existence to the beneficonee of Rockefeller, is in itself a monument-of the proper use of wealth accumulated by a man of genius. So is Vanilerbilt, and so are the old colleges, as they have received the benefication of generous and patriotic wealtM. But in view of the dangers which are about us and of tho difficulties which are before us we can not rely upon what- the rich may or what philanthropists or generosity or wisdom may suggest. "Tho state has already done well in the common schools it has done better in the high school and better still in the final opportunity which it gives in many cases for a liberal education. It would be along step forward in popularizing higher education ii' the government should establish at Washington a great national university. "As at Oxford or Cambridge there are historic colleges with foundations running back for hundreds of years and each having its own traditions, but all part of the university. So in every state there should be colleges, one each having its own merits and traditions and all of them belonging to the grand university which will represent the culture of the new world, the University of the United States."

Ail of these houses were slightly injured. The terror in the neighborhood was intense.
