SANQUILLEY'S CRIME AMKIUCAX OTIZn CHARGED WITH III: HULLING AGAINST SIM IS.
Ground on Which the AMorney-Gen-ernl of Cuba Aks that a Patriot lie Imprisoned for Life. ILWANA, Oct. 15. In the trial of Gn. Julio Hanguilly, an American citizen, cn the charge of rebellion against the Spanish government, the Attorney-general, Scrior EnJulo, in concluding his argument to-day, asked that the sentence of imprisonment for life be impeded on the prisoner. Penor Enjulo made the following conclusions: "First Julio Sanjrullly. an- American citizen since 1885, is a born resident of this Island, and was, up to his arrfst on Feb. Zt. of this year, one of the most energetic ringleaders and instigators of the armed revolution that since Fald date has broken out against the mother country with the aim of obtaining the Independence of Cuba. He was chosen to take the lead In this province and also In Matanzas and Santa Clara, and was nairfd a chief leader and delegate of the Revolutionary Junta of New York, having the power of appointing hf re the leaders he thought proper. Among those whom he selected was Col. Jose Ascuy. "Second These crimes constitute the crime of rebellion, which is provided for in Article 237, and the following paragraph, and by Article 238 of the penal code. "Third Julio tfanjrullly i responsible for having directly taken part in the rebellion. "Fourth There are no circumstances tending to mitigate the punishment which he has Justly Incurred, and which I demand the court to Inflict on him, namely. Imprisoned for life, as provided for in Article 51 of the penal code, and that he be sentenced to pay half of the expenses of the trial." The defense of the prisoner Is not known. Julio Sangullly, it i3 claimed, has a very bad record, and It Is reported that the Cubans threatened to assassinate him If he was released from custody. He was arrested In Havana during the month of February last, with Aguirra, Ramon Perez, Trujljlo and others, and was incarcerated in the Cabanas prison on the charge of having rebelled against t'r Spanish government. Sangullly fought with zeal and courage during the revolt of 1S6S, and rose from a private soldier to the rank of general. But his conduct recently has not met with the approval cf the patriots. He is said to have been short in his accounts with a railroad company at Havana a few years ago, and it is claimed that he gambled away half of the funds collected by Manuel Garcia, which were given into his care to bo used in the cause of Cuba, and some surprise was expressed at the fact that he was granted citizenship papers in New York. Then, again, a rumor was circulated in Havana some time after his arrest that he had been paid $25,000 by the Spanish government, guaranteed protection and offered a position in the Philippine islands. In any case, Sangullly, after being taken Into custody, appealed to Consul-general Williams, at Havana, and the latter cabled to the State Department at Washington soon afterward that the American citizenship of the prisoner having been established to the satisfaction Of the Captain General of Cuba, his trial, in accordance with treaty stipulations, had been transferred from the court-martial to the civil tribunal. This was in March last. In May the General s eldest son, a boy of niteen, was also locked up in the Cabanas fortress, to prevent him. it was presumed, from telling what he knew of his father's affairs to the revolutionists. Later in the same month Sangullly was reported to be dying of consumption, and another story had it that he was to be taken to Ppaln and liberated. His trial began on May 30, and now seems to be upon the point of closing. In co-operation with the cruisers Aliedo and Alonzo Pinzon, who directed a wellaimed fire on the insurgents at Playa Mata, the troops have inflicted a defeat there on the insurgents, and at - Mount Capiro the troop3 captured strong positions which were held by eight hundred of the enemy, who were driven from their camp with the loss of twenty-four killed and leaving behind them fifteen rifles, seven machetes, five horses and a medicine chest. The insurgents had many wounded, but they succeeded In carrying them away. On the side of the troops one soldier was killed and twelve were wounded. Cuba n n Arrested. HAVANA, Oct. 16. Some twenty men have been arrested at Mariel and two persons have been taken into custody at Bojrana, In the Vuelta Abajo district, charged with recruiting men for the Insurgent leaders Collazo and Pedro Delgado. The Spanish garrison at Marcel ha3 been reinforced for fear of trouble. Ten men have been arrested on the same change at Sardonas. From Alfonso Doce, twelve men have deserted to the insurgents. At the plantation of Norbertl, in the province of Santa Clara, Captain Delgado. of the civil guards, killed two Insurgents who attacked him. Spuln'n Lonnes Since the War Bejran. MADRID. Oct. 16. It Is officially announced that since the beginning of the campaign against the insurgents of Cuba the Spanish forces have lost one brigadiergeneral, twenty-six superior officers, 159 other officers and 1,811 soldiers, who imve either died of disease or have been killed by the enemy.

WILL WKiR A BUTTON Horseshoera Adopt an Emblem for Members of Their Association. DETROIT, Mich.. Oct. 16. Some mirror amendments to the constitution wers adopted at: to-day's session of the American Horseshoere Protective Association. Some acrimony was developed over a discussion of the selection of an official button for the association. It was claimed that some of the members had a personal Interest in the button proposed, but it was finally adopted. Chairman John B. Purcell, of the law committee, reported a by-law requiring the employment of only one apprentice in each shop, in order to discourage the taking of too many apprentices. After some discussion this bylaw was adopted. Separate offices were created of national organizer and national statistician, which have heretofore been vested in one official. An effort was also made to divorce the offices ot secretary and treasurer, but without success. Street nnllway Employes. DETROIT, Mich., Oct. 16. Several amendments to the constitution of the Association of Street-railway Employes of America were adopted by the annual convention to-day. Amendments were adopted with the view of levying a greater tax on" local associations to raise more means for organization purposes. It was decided that the national organization snail receive 10 cents of each So cents of the per capita tax In the local unions. It shall also receive 10 cents per capita tax on May 1 of each year.

McCarthy, of Chicago, discussing this subject, sail thp best plan was for every employer to establish his own trade school and make teachers of his own workmen. CONSTITUTION' MAKERS.
Sonth Cnrollnlnnn Trj Injr to Frame n. Lnir Forbidding Mixed 31nrrlitffcs. COLUMBIA, S. C, Oct. 16.-The South Carolina constitutional convention reassembled to-day. The negro cohabitation question again came up and the whole subject Was recommitted when the convention took a recess. The provision under consideration declares that It should be unlawful for any white person to marry with any person having negro blood In his or her veins and providing for tho punishment of cohabitation by the Legislature. An amendment was introduced this morning excepting from the provisions of the law those people of the Stato who although they have slight intermixture of negro blood have the status of white people. There Is much difference of opinion as to what is best to be done about this class and consequently the committee was Instructed to bring In another provision, which it is hoped will meet the approval of everybody. The rest of the day was spent in discussing the legislative committee report, the principal action being tne rejection of a provision preventing legislators and Judges from being candidates for any other office and preventing tho legislature from passing a special law as to incorporating towns or as to county governments, making such laws general In their application. Senator Tillman introduced a resolution providing for the holding of another constitutional convention in 19lb and every twenty years thereafter. This was defeated by a vote of G to 47. The night session of tho convention was devoid of special Interest except that in the discussion of the bill of rights the convention struck out the action declaring, that the right of suffrage should not be abridged on account of race, color or previous condition, and the section declaring that neither slavery nor involuntary servitude should exist in the State except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted. It was urged that both of theso questions were covered fully by provisions in the United States Constitution. The negro members tried to get a yea and nay .vote on striking them out, but they could not get the necessary ten members to back them in the demand. A few members wanted to retain the sections, as they believed It would do no harm to reiterate the principles contained in them, but an overwhelming majority, on a viva voce vote, struck out the section. There was a great deal of discussion on the section providing for "free and open" elections. Senator Tillman wanted to strike out the section and let the suffrage committee deal with the question. The consideration of the section was postponed until the suffrage question Is disposed of, and it has been made a special order for next Wednesday. FLIGHT OF A BANKEft. Deeded Ills Property to a Son and Locked the Ofllce Safe. SIGOURNET, la., Oct. 16. A. C. Charlton and Allen Stocker, private bankers at Richland, havo failed and the Institution's condition Is very bad. They have been in business several years. Last Thursday Charlton left, ostensibly to get money with which, to mako some more loans. The safe was locked, and his partner, who received a note from Charlton telling him to run the bank while Charlton was gone, does not know the combination. After waiting two days, Stocker concluded his partner had fled, and on Monday creditors got out at tachments to the amount of 10,000 against Stocker's property. Stocker had, on Sept. 5, deeded it to hjs son. and efforts are being made to set aside the deed. The property consists of farm land valued at about $2),100. The benk had paid 8 per cent, on deposits, and had about 5C0.C00 on deposit. Charlton has been dealing on the Chicago Board of Trade extensively and had lost.

ItnMKla Demand on Japan Una Canned Bitterness Ajtralnst Kuropenns. SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 16. Advices by mall from Toklo, Japan, dated Sept. 27, state that Japan has been forced to comply with Russia' 8 demand for a speedy withdrawal of the Japanese troops from the Llao Tung peninsula. France and Germany joined in the demand, and the Japanese government was in no position to defy three European powers. The announcement of Russia's purpose took Japan by surprise. This proceeding has caused renewed bitterness In Japan against Europeans. The Japanese also charge their own Ministry with conniving at the nation's dishonor. A feeling of hostility toward foreigners In China is said to be rapidly increasing. Additional atrocities are feared. The proceedings at Ku-Cheng are conducted with flagrant defiance of Justice and order. The central government seems powerless to assert its authority, even if genuinely inclined to do so. Tho American residents who appealed to Washington for the appointment of a commission to investigate the Sze-Chuan outrages are beginning to doubt the expediency of that measure. The Sze-Chuan affair is almost forgotten since the occurrence of the deeper tragedy, and it is felt what energy is shown by the United States government should be directed to a more useful purpose than the apportionment of damages fcr missionary property destroyed. Immediate action of a much more decided nature is Imperatively required. Questions of life and death are imminent, and it is thought pecuniary considerations might be deferred.

MEN WHO MAKE EAIN ASSEMBLE IX THIS CITY IS AXXUAL COXVEXTIOX. Tendered a Danqnet at the Grand by the "Meteorological" Committee of the Board of Trade. The forecast officers of the State's weather eervlce ahl directors of the Weather Bureau were tendered a banquet at the Grand last evening by the "meteorological" committee of the Board of Trade. "President Gordon, of the board, acted as'toastm aster, and a good one he was. After the repast there were a number of toasts. Through the west windows there blew a west wind, coming: from the direction of the general drift of the atmosphere. Late In the evening light clouds begran to gather, but the climatic conditions were good for fair weather. At times the speakers were greeted with thunderous applause, for some of the remarks were as sharp as lightning. During the speaking no me--teorlc displays were observed. The temperature of the room began . at normal, but increased during the evening. Some of thoso present would have welcomed a cold wave, but every joke and remark was warmly received. The barometric pressure was high. Socially the weather men do not seem half, so serious as their flags, and figures and reports might Indicate. After Major Gordon had made a few Introductory remarks, ex-Mayor Denny spoke briefly. MaJ. H. IL C. Dunwoody, president of the association, replied. G. W. Sloan made a few remarks. Willis L. Moore, chief of the Weather Bureau, talked for several minutes, during iwhlch time he dispelled the popular belief that the weather men carry the different kinds of weather around in their vest pockets. He referred to the old belief that it always rains after a battle, and he explained It as follows: "It Is a matter of record that one day of every three sees rain. It Is probably true that it rained on a majority of the days following the battles of the late war. Commanders generally choose fair days for a battle, and according to the figures It is to be expetced that rain follows a battle. If commanders fought battles during rain, it might probably be said that the day after a battle is always clear and fair." Others spoke during the evening. The convention of the American Association of State Weather Service Officers began at 10 o'clock yesterday morning at the Statehouse. Major H. 11.
