hould ho protracted, when somo of them
will favor handing the bonnet nround by
changing dally from one favorite to nnother.
Among the democrats, however, the compe
tition lay between William II. Thompson
of (Jrand Island and U. M. Hitchcock of
Omnha,, both of whom had been announced
candidates during the campaign. Colonel
Urynn could doublless havo the honor with
out n Htrnggln If ho wanted It, hut
he has Intimated that he did not want to bo
considered,
Thn plan of operations for the fusion
, caucus has been thn subject of differences
of opinion. It was urged that the populists
should chooso thn populist to bo voted for
and Ihn democrats tho democrat, each In
dependently of one another, and then nil
be bound, by the cholco thus made. Where
tho so-called silver rctubllruiis would coma
In under such n schemo was not disclosed.
On the other side tho claim was made that
each fusion member would havo to voto for
two candidates for senator In tho open
and had n right to n voice In tho selection
of both the caucus nominees, that each
fuslonlsl was elected as much by demo
cratic as by populist votes nnd would bo
equally responsiblo for the democratic as
for the populist nominee. Remembering
that nt best tho f union caucus enn glvo
nothing more than an empty honor tho
contention Is more amusing than serious.
Iloth Thompson nnd Hitchcock are repre
sented by a retlnuo of pluggcrs. Thompson
has been here himself all day, aided by
Kdgar Howiird, now of Columbus, while
Hitchcock's Interests havo been engineered
by Metcalfe nnd the fusion contingent from
Douglas.

Tho Joint futston caucus tonight was an
exceedingly lively affair considering that
It wus only for tho purposo of selecting
candidates for whom to cast tho minority
vote for United Htntes senator and when It
broke up, after discussing the mattor for
an hour and a, half, tho members were ub
far, or farther, from u settlement of their
troubles us they havo over been, tho re
sult of tho caucus, which wns called for
tho purpose of selecting tho gentlemen upon
whom to confer this honor, being a de
cision to allow tho membct'H to cast tholr
votes for whom thoy please tomorrow. To
morrow night another attempt will bo made
to select tho candldutcs, but a numbor of
members express thumsclvcs us being
doubtful of nny result. Iloth W. II. Thomp
son Htid Hitchcock, aspirants for the dem
ocratlc. nomination, wcro about, tho lobby
with their war paint on beforn I ho cr.uctm
and each of litem nppenred to bo dlsap
pointed that no result was reached. Thn
fuslonlsts aro as enthusiastic over tho mat
ter as If they wcro up ngnlnst tho real
thing Instead of simply casting a compli
mentary voto anil some of tho members
wero real angry when tho caucus broko up
tonight.
Tho proposition to divide tho joint cau
cus, allowing tho populists to namo ono
cnndldato and tho democrats one, was de
feated by populists who havo n cinch on
their candidate and want to hnve a say
ns to whom tho other man shall he.
At tho closo of tho Joint caucus tho son
nto members held a caucus for tho purposo
of preparing an attack upon tho majority
roport of tho committee on privileges and

which will bo made tomorrow nnd which Is

Johnson against Hodges will bo presented
to tho senate nt tomorrow's session and
will recommend tho seating of tho con
testant, Mr. Johnson. Tho roport was to
have been made today, but, as the fusion
members of tho committee wished until to
morrow to Mo n minority report, tho mn-
orlty report will bo held until that time,
Tho contestant, who will gain n seat by
this roport, Is a republican, who on thn

votes, but who established his claim of il
legal votes having been cast for his op
ponent with the result thnt ho Is said to
havo a majority of four or five votes ar.d
the majority report will favor seating
him.
The minority report, It Is said, will set
up that the evldonco as to whom the
proven Illegal votes wero cast for was In
sufficient evidence on which to base tho ma
jority report and will recommend that Son
ator Hodges bo allowed to retain his scat.
Thero Is llttlo doubt, however, but that the

NKWl'OUT, R, l Jan, 14. Although In
tho dopth of winter this well known water

summer gaiety because of the wedding of
Alfred Gwyun Vanderbllt, probably tho most
wealthy of the third generation of the
Vanderbllt family, and Miss Elsie French,
a charming Newport girl nnd former play
mate of the brldpgroom, tho daughter of
Mrs. Frederick Ormo French, a resident of
tho city for many years.
A brighter sun never shone for any
bride, ami In spito of a crispness in tho
air, It did not seem to be a winter's day.
Tho ceremony took place at noon. In the
Zabriskl Memorial Church of St. John tho
Evangelist, far up in tho old north part of
the city, on the "ery shores of Narragansott
bay, once the center of Newport's fashion,
but now far removed from tho social whirl
f Uellevue avenue. Miss French made tho
choice of hor own place of worship and hor
own homo for the sceno of the marriage, In-
tead of selecting the more pretentious but

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14. Just at the
close of a day of dreary discussion of tech
nical details of tho army reorganlzutlou
bill Mr. Teller of Colorado, speaking to an
amendment ho had offered, delivered n sen
sntionnl denunciation of General Kagan,
former commissary general of tho United
States nrmy. His statement included also
the administration because General Eagun
had been retired, according to the Colorado
senator's charge, ns a "decoration and a
reward" for his attacks upon tho command
ing general of tho army.
In an appeal for tho early passage of the
pending bill Mr. Carter of Montnna dcclnred
that delay Mould mean nn additional ex
penditure of $500,000 n day. He asked that
a tlmo bo set for a vote, but Mr. Teller ob
lectcd.
Absolutoly no progress was mndo with
tho mensure today, not n single amendment
being disposed of finally.
Mr. Allison reported favorably from tho
nnanco committee n bill concerning tho dls
tilling of brandy from fruits, tho Idea being
to add cherries nnd figs to the list of fruits
included In tho present law. lie nsked con
Bidoratlon for the bill today.
Consldcratl6n was then resumed of tho
nrmy reorganlrntlon bill, tho pending elites
Hon being nn amendment offered by Mr. Da-
con or Georgia, striking out that provision
or tno bill authorizing the president to In
ereaBo the numbor of nou-conimlssloncd of
(leers and privates In any troop of cavalry
After some desultory discission. Mr. Ba
con withdrew Ills amendment and offered
another, Introducing the words "during tho
present exigency of the service," so that
tho clause would read: "Provided, that
tho president, during tho present exigency
or me service, in his descretloti. may In
crease tho number of corporals In any troop
or cavalry to eight and the number of prl
vntes to scventy-slx."
further discussion of the Bacon amend
mcnt was postponed until tomorrow.
An amendment was offered by Mr. Toller
or uoiorado to that section of tho bill which
authorizes tho president to retire nny officer
who lins been suspended from duty either
oy sentenco of court-martial or by executive
order in mitigation of such sentence, strlk
ing out the Words "has been" nnd substl
tutlng therfiforo -"shall bo hereafton"'
Mr. Toller adverted to tho case of Gcn-
eral Kagan at some length. Of the beef
furnished tho nrmy, he said It was "boiled
ami canned, nnd of very ancient llncaKe
somo of which had made a trip to- Eurono
anil unfit, being fed to our soldiers nfter It
had been condemned by European govern
ments," Mr. Teller denounced General
Kagan In a sensational manner. "As nn offl
eer of tho United Stntes army," said the
senator, "he made an exhibition of himself
nnd showed himself to bo n miscrablo black
guard."
Mr. Teller made a stinging attuck unon
tne president for having retired General
Lagan, assorting that "tho retirement, in
the clcumstances, was a decoration nnd not
n punishment, and many of tho American
peoplo bellovo It was a dororntlon and u
reward for his attack upon the genornl
commanding' the nrmy."
Mr. Pettlgrefi Interposed, with a motion
to adjourn und finally, on motion of ,Mr.
Proctor, the. senate, ut D:55, ndjourncd until

mndo by Mr. Cushman of Washington on

Mr. Morris of Minnesota, another momber
of the river and harbor committee, also de
fended the bill, arguing along the lines
followed by Mr. Lawrence thnt appropria
tions for big; natlounl projects could not
properly bo , chargeable to the states In
which they happened to be located.
Mr. Tongue of Oregon, nnother member nf
the committee, replied to Mr. Cushman's

MUST GO BACK TO CUBA
(Continued from First I'nge.)
"It cannot be doubted that when the
United Stntes required nnd enforced the
relinquishment by Spain of her sovereignty
In Cuba and determined to occupy and con
trol the Island until thero was complete
tranquility In nil Its borders and until the
pccple of Cuba had created for themselves
n stahlo government, It succeeded to the
nuthorlty of tho displaced government, so
far, at least, that It became Its duty, under
International law nnd pending pacification
of tho Island, to protect In oil appropriate
legal modes the lives, the liberty nnd tho
property of all those who submitted to the
nuthorlty of the representatives of this
country. Tho power of congress to make
all laws necessary nnd proper for carrying
Into execution as well ns the powers enu
merated In section 8 of nrtlclo I of the con
stitution ns all others vested In the govern
ment of tho United Stntes or In nny de
partment or the olllcers thereof, Includes
tho power to enact such legislation ns Is
appropriate to glvo efficiency to any stipu
lations which It Is competent for the pres
ident, hy nnd with the ndvlco nnd consent
of tho sennto, to Insert In n treaty with a
foreign power. What legislation by con
gress could be more appropriate for the
protection of life nnd property In Cuba
while occupied and controlled by tho
United States than legislation to return
to that Island, to ho tried hy its consti
tuted authorities of those who, having com
muted crimes thero flee to this country to
cscnpo nrrest, trial nnd punishment? No
crime Is mentioned In tho extradition net
of June ti, 1800, thnt does not havo some re
latlon to the safety of life nnd property
and tho provisions of that net requiring
the surrender of nny public officer, cm
ployo or depositary fleeing to tho United
Stntes after having committed In a for-
elgn territory occupied by the United Stater.
of the crlmo of embezzlement or criminal
maladverslon of tho public funds."
The court declined, Justice Harlan statert
lo enter upon tho question as to what the
obligations of tho United Slates would havo
been In the matter of protecting llfo and
property In Cuba If not required to do so by
tno obligations of the treaty of Paris,
Hespoiinllillltv I'mler Trenty of I'nrls
"That question," In- said, "Is not open on
this record for examination and upon It wo
express no opinion, it Is quite surtlclont In
thls enso to adjudge, as wo do, that It vas
competent for congress, hy legislation to en
force or give oftlcney to the provisions of
the treaty made hy the United Stairs and
Spain with respect to Cuba and Its poonli
Replying to nnother contention of Neely's
counsel, the opinion scys thnt when an
American citizen commits a erlmo in n for
eign country he cannot complain It re
quired, to subm.lt to such modes of trial or
such, modes of punishment ns thnt country
may prescribe for Its own peoplo, unless
a diriercnt mode be provided for by treaty
stipulations between Unit county and tho
united Stntes.
It was argued on behnlf of Neely that as
peaco now exists in Cuba and has existed
thero slneo tho Spanish forces cvncuatei'
tho Island, the occupancy and control of
that island under the mllltnry authority
wunoui warrant In the constitution. Is tin
authorized Interference with tho Internal
affairs of a frlondly country, nnd that con
sequently, the appellant should not bo ex
tradited for trial In tho courts established
under tho orders Issued hy the military gov
cmor of tho Island, In support of this
proposition It was said that tho United
htntes recognized the existence of tho re
punilc or Cuba and that the war with
Spain wnB carried on Jointly with tho allied
rorcos of the United Stntes and of that re
public.
AIIi-uimI Iteruunltliin of Itcpnhllc
Replying to this point Justice Harlan
said: "Apart from the view thut It is not
competent for tho Judiciary to muko any
uecinratlon upon tho question of the length
or tlmo under which Cuba muy be right
fully occupied and controlled hy tho United
States In order to effect its pacification
It bolng tho function of tho political branch
of tho government to determine when such
occupation nnd control hhall cease and
thoreforo when tho troop of tho United
States shall be withdrawn from Cuba the
contention that tho United States rccog
nizod tho existenco of an established gov
ernment, known ns tho republic of Cuba,
hut It Is now using Its military or execu
tive power to displace or overthrow It Is
without merit. Tho declaration by con
gress that tho peoplo of Cuba were.
nnd of right ought to bo freo and Inde
pendent, was not Intended ns a recognition
of the existence of an organized govern
ment instituted hy tho peoplo of that Island
In hostility to tho government maintained
by Spain. Nothing moro wns Intended than
to express the thought thnt tho Cubans
wero to enjoy to use tho lnncuace of the
president In his message of December 5,
1S97: "That measuro of self-control which
Is the alienable right of man, protected In
their right to reap tho benefit of tho ex-
haustlcss treasure of their country.
"Both tho legislative nnd executive
branches of tho government concurred In
not recognizing the cxlstauco of such gov
ernment as tho republic of Cuba. It Is
truo that tho co-operation of the troops
commanded by Cuban officers was accepted
hy tho military ofllcers of tho United
States in its efforts to overthrow SpanUh
authority. Yet from tho beginning to tho
end of tho wnr tho supremo authority In
nil mllltnry operations In Cubn and In Cu
ban wntots against Spain iib with tho
United Statos and those operations wore
not In nny sense under tho rontrol or
direction of tho troops commanded by Cu
ban ofllcers."
I'ln lit CnneliiNlnii nf 4'iinrt,
The final conclusion of the court was an
nounced ns follows:
"Wo aro of opinion, for the reasons
slated, that the act of June (i, MOO, Is not
In violation of tho constitution of tho
Unltod Stntes and that this case
comes within tho provisions of that
act. Tho court below havlnc found
that thero wbb probably causo to find tho
appellant guilty, as charged, the order for
his extradition was proper and no ground
existed for his discharge on habeas cornus.
Tho Judgment of the circuit court Is thero-
fore afllrmed." ,
invernini-iit Will Avt I'roinptl, .
As soon ns the War department Is ofll-
clnlly Informed of the decision of the
United States supcremo court sustaining
lis contention In the enso of Charles Neely,
charged with postal frauds In Cuba, steps
win no taken to secure tho prisoner's
removed to Havana for trial. Nocly Is now
In custody In the Ludlow street Jail, New
York, pending tho hearing of civil proceed
ings against him nn tho chnrgo of having
brought stolen goods Into tho stato of New
nrk. Judicial steps will bo Instituted to
vacate the civil proceedings nnd secure the
treansfer of tho prisoner to tho custody
of William Hlnkol of New York, who 1ib
Just been appointed tho agent of tho mili
tary governor ror Cuba, for tho purpose of
receiving tho ptlsoner when surrendered by
tho United States government under tho
ppllcntlon for extradition. When all nec-
cskary preliminaries havo been arranged.
Neely will ho surrendered to Agent Hlnkol
and placed on a I'nlted States transport nnd
tauen to Havana. The application for ex
tradition was nade In Muy last and Neely's
counsel resorted to every legal resourco
to resist action upon it by the United
8tates government. It is sr.id the United
States authorities deslro to havo the trial
of Noely precede the heurlng of the case
of Itathbonc, who Is charged with com
plicity in the same transactions.

WEST POINT, Jan 14. The congres
slnnnl Investigation committee held three
sessions at tho West Point Military ucad
emy todny. The first (wo sessions nnd tho
gt enter part of the night session were oc
cuplcd In the examination of Louis Brown,
Jr., of Newport, R. 1., who was one of Cadet
Keller's seconds In his light with Boor.
From tho line of examination adopted by
the commltteo tho congressmen nro cvl
detitly bent on -the abolition of hazing and
fighting at tho academy. They put Brown
through an exhaustive examination, In the
course of which Ihcy realized the fact that.
In vlolntlon of the rules, nnd regulation
of the school, tho upper-class men carried
Intoxicating liquors Into the reservation
and consumed qtiltu n considerable quan
tlty of It. Another stringent rule seems
to hnvc been broken with Impunity. This
Is tho regulation prohibiting smoking.
Cadet Brown ncknowledgcd that 'the ma
jority of the cadets wore cigar smokers And
plenty of cigarettes were smuggled Into tho
Institution.
.Indue Smith Itunnlft Cnilrln,
Goncrnl Dick, Judge Smith and Mr. Drlggs
handled Brown without gloves. Mr. Drlgge
told him that the first-class men thought
they were the whole thing and Judge Smith
said that they wero conceited, arrogant
and Ignorant In their presumption of set
ting their Judgment against that of tho
authorities of the academy.
Cadet Brown defended the West Point
fighting code, but admitted that lighting
would censo If cadets knew they would bo
expelled for tnklng part In fights. He
thought an oath against lighting would slop
It, because no endot would break the oath,
nnd If he did would bo reported hy other
cadetB,
Cadet Brown, told about fourth-class men
being required to rend things about them
selves or tholr' relatives.
At the end of each line, he said, as wns
tho cose with Cadet Hobson, they wcro re
quired to insert their own names, Cadet
Hobson once rend about his brother nnd t'ae
sinking of tho Mcrrlmae, nnd ut tho end of
each lino was required to say "I am tho
man." . , ,
"Hid hp, read anything about tho Cali
fornia incidents'.?" asked Mr. Drlggs.
"No. sir. ho was not.uekvd to do that,"
replied Brown, laughing us ho spoke.
This appeared to greatly amine the women
spectators present.
I'orinn of Hnxlnu; In nnd Out of Vunr.
At the night session under examination by
Chairman Dick, Cadet Brown suld that
eagllng, "wooden Willie," foot ball. Bitting
on bayonet, sweating, chewing rope, hnng
Ing on stretcher nnd double spring were
forms of hazing that had been dlscon
tinned. Thoso In practice recently, he said,
wero qualifying In tho mess hall on prunes
or "snmmy," scolding tho gunner, bracing.
sounding tecks, dragging, tent and examin
ing feet.
"Klst lights are still In vogue?"
"Yes, sir. Thoy huvo not been done away
with," replied Brown.
Judge Smith asked tho witness If ho did
not think the upper-class men wero con
ceited, arrogant and Ignorant In their treat
ment of fourth-clans men In violation of
tho laws :oid regulations, but Cadet Brown
could not sec it In that light. He was then
excused auj Cadot Joseph Da men, District
of Columbia, Keller's other second, was
called and examined by Judge Smith re
garding tho light with Booz. His examina
tion was only purtly concluded when the
commltteo adjourned until morning.
