RESULT OF VAN MATRE SUIT

FAILURE TO PUT IN AN APPEAR ANCE HERE IS TAKEN AS AN INDICATION THAT HE WANTS NO LITIGATION. The New Castle Courier says: Many believe that Geeorge Hazzard will not be again seen for some time in Henry county, since the historian made no appearance or motion for a continuance in hi collection suit against Cyrus VanMatre at Richmond Monday, the case having been ventfed to the Wayne circuit court. It was very naturally expected that Mr. Hazzard would make representations to the effect that it was a physica impossibility for him to be present at the hearing and would ask a con tinuance, in view of his reported run away accident at Trenton, N. J., re cently. The plaintiff presented noth ing and Judge Fox promptly dismiss ed the case. Mr. VanMatre and his attorneys were at Richmond ready to proceed with the case. A cross-complaint had been filed in which Mr. VanMa tre alleged that his signature to the contract was secured through fraud and he asked that the agreement be cancelled. Judge Fox rendered a decision on this complaint and the con tract was cancelled. It was fully expected that Mr. Hazzard would prosecute his suit against Mr. VanMatre and, if successful, use it as a foundation for similar suits, His failure to make any kind of a move In the case has ted many to be lieve that he has abandoned all suits of this kind. It remains to be seen If the historian will make an appearance to defend himself against the charge of forgery, which has been continued until the pecember term of court. If he does not, his bond will be for feited, and the chances are that Henry county will have seen the last of George Hazzard. DEMAND A PROTECTORATE LATEST MOVE IN CUBA Foreign Element in the Island is Pre paring Petitions to Be Presented to President Roosevelt at An Early Date. Publisher' Press Havana, Nov. 21. The'sentiment In Cuban industrial and financial circles In favor of the establishment of a United States protectorate over the island, is crystallizing. There are two independent movements for -this purpose, the Instigators of which are gathering signatures to petitions to President Roosevelt opposing the idea 5f annexation, pointing out the inability of the Cubans to direct their own affairs unaided and declaring that only by a protectorate can Cuba be preserved for the Cubans. It is reported that a considerable number of signatures have been secured, but they are being kept secret pending a development of the movement. The process of recovering rifles which the disbanded government volunteers failed to surrender at the end of their services is progressing rapidly. Of the 21.200 rifles issued to volunteers, 16,250 are stored in Havana, and these, together with others in the possession of United States officers In various towns, leave only 1,800 not accounted for. It is expected that the remainder will be recovered. MEN LOSE THEIR HANDS A Peculiar and Dreadful Accident that Befel Two Oil Well Drillers. .Publishers' Press J New Martinsville, W. Va., Nov, 21. George Wilson and Arthur Steepleton, oil workers, narrowly escaped death in a remarkable accident. The two men cleaned an oil well and were putting on the cap, which weighted 4,000 pounds.

TAFT ISSUES STATEMENT

HIS INTERVENTION IN FACE OF THE EXPLICIT COMMAND OF THE PRESIDENT MAY BRING A NEW FACE INTO THE CABINET. Publishers Press! Washington, Nov. 21. The war de partment issued the following statement concerning the negro troops or dered dismissed at Fort Reno: 4Tn the matter of the order dis charging the enlisted men of the three companies of the Twenty-fifth infantry issued by the president, application was presented to the secretary of war by a number of persons of standing asking for a rehearing by the president, on the ground on which the action was taken. The secretary telegraphed the president of the application and delayed the proceedings of the discharge until the president could indicate his wishes. The secretary was meantime called out of town. No answer was received from the president. The secretary on his return did not feel justified in further delaying the execution of the order of the discharge, especially in view of the fact that the secretary then learned that the president had fully and exhaustively considered the argument against the order of the persons who applied for a rehearing. Accordingly the secretary directed that the proceedings for discharge be continued without delay." Secretary Taft received a dispatch from President Roosevelt and issued the following additional statement: "A telegram was received from the president after the previous statement was given out at the war department, in which he declined to suspend the discharge unless there are new facts of such importance as to war rant cabling him. He states that the action was taken after due delibera tion, and that th only matter to which he can pay heed is the presen tation of facts showing the official reports to be in whole or in part untrue or clearly exculpating some individual. If such facts later appear' he can account as he deems advisable, but thus far nothing has been introduced to warrant the suspension of the or der, and he directs it be executed." Secretary Taft says that , Immediate steps will be taken to recruit colored soldiers to replace the men discharged. The members of the three companies, who were on furlough at the time of the Brownsville affair and three members who are to be tried by courtmartial will not be mustered out. Secretary Taft flew straight in the face of the president when he sus pended the order directing the dis charge without honor of three companies of the Twenty-fifth infantry, for declining to divulge the names of the soldiers who "shot up" the town of Brownsville, Tex. President Roosevelt is an arbitrary man and the outcome of the difference between him and the secretary of war is awaited with much interest and anxiety. It is conceded that serious results may follow, as serious as retirement of Taft from the cabinet. Two Injured in Wreck. 'Publishers Press YOungstown, O., Nov. 21.
