HAVANA, March 21. The action of tho
republican party In Santiago In endorsing
the Piatt amendment nnd Instructing Scnor
Gomel and Kerrlcr of the Santiago dele
gation to tho constitutional convention to
voto for tho amendment, together with the
letters of General Sangullly nnd tho mayor
of Clenfuegos, advising acceptance, wero In
cidents of tho week just paused that have
tended to clear up the political atmosphere,
until now there are few who do not expect
tho convention to approve tho amendment.
Tho visit of American congressmen has had
an excellent effect, as In no Instance have
tho radicals received any encouragement In
the notion that If action Is delayed until
the next congress there might bo a change
In the demands of the United States. The
radicals Insist that somo concession, no
matter how Insignificant, may provide u
aumcicnt excuse.
Already the radicals arc taking their cuo
from the conservatives and pointing out
that commercial Interests demand recogni
tion. Thoro Is a possibility of uniting the
convention along this line. ,Thc platform
of the conservatives calls for n reduction of
American Import duties on tobacco and
sugar nnd npprovcB nny scheme of rela
tions which the United Stales government
scch fit to Impose. In fact tho situation Is
leading to a point where commorclal In
terests will be the chief question under dis
cussion at tho next session of tho conven
tion, nnd it Is not unlikely that a resolution
will bo -adopted asking for a reciprocity
treaty.
GOVERNOR ODELL'S TRIUMPH

I.eKlnliillini Yet.
NEW YORK, March 24. Leading repub
lican politicians of this city and stato
met In Senator Piatt's rooms ut tho Fifth
Avenue hotel this afternoon and wero In
conference for several hours. As a result
of tho conference it wns decided to at
tempt no police legislation this session.
Tho conferenco adjourned subject to tho
call of Senator Piatt, whonever, In his
Judgment, police legislation seems neces
sary. All thoso who were talked with
say tho conference wns harmonious.
I.ong before tho time for the conference,
tho corridors of the Fifth Avenue hotel
were tilled with state leaders and mom
bcrs of tho legislature. Every ono of tho
leaders summoned to tho conference at
tended. Thoro was a large sprinkling of
local politicians nnd many of the upstnto
politicians who wero attracted to tho place
of conference, but wero not summoned ns
participants. Though no ono would say it
directly, all who attended tho conferenco
admitted thnt It had come to tbo views of'
Governor Odell and It was considered that
ho had virtually triumphed and that the
organization was with him.
This evening Senator Piatt gave out the
following statement: "Tho genoral opin
ion of tliofio at tho conferenco was that tho
police conditions existing In Now York
ought to havo tho attention of tho legisla
ture, but It would bo useless to pass any
bill, ns tho governor has declared that he
would veto It. Somo of those present fa
vored a state police law and others fa
vored a metropolitan district, but It was
decided by all that nothing would bo done
at present.
"I regret the situation, ns I believe that
some action by the legislature is Important
for the city nnd tho republican party and
I think thnt such will be tho general pub
lic opinion 'soon. Hut If nothing Is to bo
dono soon and If the present bad condi
tions aro to bo submitted tor tho legisla
ture Is not responsible for that.
"If It turns out In tho next municipal
election that the Justmcnt 1 have fo Pined
has been wrong then I shnll bo glad that
Tiunmrny has been left In control of th'j
police."

LANDL0R0S ANSWER FOR VICE
Xcmv Peru's Committee of Fifteen
Woiilil Cleunse Tenements Morally
ly PrimeeutliiK (lie. Owners.
NEW YORK. March 21. Tbo committee
of fifteen today sent n letter to Governor
Odell warmly endorsing the recommeuda
tlons of the tenement bouso committee In
regard to the driving out of vice from tho
tenement bouse. The committee has do
voted ctmslderublo tlmo to this Question,
which wns ono of tho things which cnllcd
It Into tbo field, and It Is expected the full
commltteo will go to Albany on Tuosday,
when a hearing on tho report of tho teno
mrnt houso commltteo will bo heard before
tho cities' commltteo of the legislature. The
letter rends In part as follows:
"The greatest of existing ovlls Is the In
trusion and wide extension of prostitution
In tho tenement house districts, tho dis
trict In which tho great mass of wago
earners arc compelled to live. Thero will
probably, for n long time to come, continue
to bo differences of opinion as to how It la
possible to check tho vice tu our cities, but
there can be no conflicting opinions as to
tho necessity of protecting children of ton
tier years from close contact with depravity.
An Intlmntp acquaintance with ndult tvee
should at least not bo forced upon young
children by permitting such vice to pene
trato Into the very houses In which they
live, The cry of pnrents, who ask merely
for tho opportunity of bringing up their
children In an atmosphoro free from tho
pollution of the most degrading forms of
moral evils, should surely bo heeded."
Tho letter says thnt the low on tho Btat
uto has not met tho situation and what Is
needed Is n law that will place tho respon
sibility for the existence of vlco In tho
tenements on tho shoulders of tho land
lords. This, tho committee says, tho leg
tsluttou proposed by tho tenoment house
commltteo will do.

NEW NAVY A REVELATION
People Who I, lie In the Interior .May

WASHINGTON, "March 21. (Special.)
Tho new navy of the United States, built
within the Inst three years, will be a pro
found revelation to the millions who live
In tho Interior of our country, when Its ex
tent and fighting qualities become known.
One of the mast Interesting of the gov
ernment exhibits nt the Paiiamerlcan ex
position, which opens In May In Iluflulo,
will bo tho navy display, In charge of Chief
Clerk 11. F. Peters of the Navy department,
and who represents that branch of our gov
ernment on the board charged to make tho
government exhibit, The exhibit Is planned
upon a mot exhaustive scale, with Mno re
gard to the arrangement nnd theatrical
effect of not only our ships, but the guns
they carry and everything, In fact, connected
with our sea service. While many of the
departments within tho navy aro engaged
In friendly rivalry over their respective ex
hibits, It In believed that the hydrograpblc
odlco's exhibit will be Inspected by more
people than any of tho other displays. The
hydrograpblc olllco will show our sen power
and our fighting strength In a most novel
manner. A great 8xlC-foot map of the world
Is being built showing the tracks of full
powered steam vessels tho sea over. This
map will cover the globo from the sixtieth
parallel north to tho sixtieth parallel south,
and upon It will bo placed mlnlaturo lead
models bf all United Stntcs vessels of every
type, numbering over 300, In nnd out of
commission nt tbo tlmo of tho exposition.
Theso vessels, tho largest of which will
scarcely bo longer than the second Joint
of the average Index finger, but which nt a
short distance nwny will look llko tbo real
thing, will bo placed from day to day In
tbo positions actually occupied by the ships
they represent, the movements of which
will be reported every twenly-four hours to
the nnvoKauthorltles ut the exposition. And
to faithfully portray the sea power of tho
United States ns represented by Its ships,
models of the following vessels nre being
made for use at Iluffnlo, showing the
strength of our new navy, tho wonder nnd
amazement of tho whole world:

SIOUX FALLS. S. D., Mnrch 21. (Spe
cial.) The United States authorities in this
city havo received Information of a dqublo
tragedy on tho Pino Rldgo Indian reserva
tion. Some days ago a mixed-blood Sioux
Indian named Louis Cottier was killed at
his home on Spring creek by Hilly Day, a
full-blood Sioux. Cottier was nlouo In his
dwelling In tbo evening, when neighbors
observed Day drive up to tho house in n
wagon. Day was accompanied by his wlto.
Tho two were seen soon afterward riding
hurriedly away on horseback. Halt an
hour afterward, when ono of his friends
went to the house, he found Cottier dead,
with a bullet holo In his head and a fearful
hole torn In his breast, which was powder
burned from the discharge of a un or
pistol held close to the body. Cottier was
a successful stock raiser, lie was well
known and generally liked by tho Btock
men of western South Dakota.
The sequel to this tragedy occurred some
tlmo Inter, when Indian policemen were
sent out by United Stntcs Indian Agent
John R, llrennan to effect tho capture of
tho murderer, nilly Day was closely pur
sued by tho policemen, bo closely, In fact,
that ho was finally brought to bay. Hid
pluco of temporary refugo was completely
surrounded by his relentless pursuers, who
wero about to carry tho placo by assault
and enpturo tho fugitive, when, apparently
realizing the despernteness of his position,
and that the gallows stared him In the
face, tho frenzied nnd desporato Indlnn
took his own life rather than suffer cap
ture nt the hands of his brethren. Tho
motive which Inspired him to kill Cottier
remains n mystery, and will probably never
bo explained. '

People.
HURON, S. U., March 21. (Speclnl.) Tho
meeting of the Stato Referendum league
called to review tho work of the legis
lature has adjourned. There wan but a
limited number present, but sulllclcnt to
do the business In hand. Numbers of bills
wero considered for reference, but only four
were put upon the list, and three othciu
may go thero later. It was decided to refer
o the people for approval or rejection the
law providing for the election of county
commissioners nt large, which law, It lb
lalmcd, gives tho larger towns advantage
over tho country and Instead of giving a
majority of tho board members lo tho coun
try districts, allows tho towns to control tho
boards. w
Tho law providing for the removal of
constitutional olllccrs by tho governor Is
another proposition the loaguo desires
pasaed upon by the people. Also tho lnw
limiting the terms of members of tho Hoard
of Charities and Corrections. Theso meas
ures aro regarded by the fuslonlsta ns di
rectly contrary to. tho best Interests of
the Institutions over which tbo board has
control.
Another bill to bo referred Is that of
the selection of ofllclal papers by 'county
commissioners. 'Under tho provisions of
this bill fusion publishers stnnd slim chancu
of getting more than n small crumb of tho
county patronage.
Three bills wero rn(erred to a committee
for consideration and, If by them deemed ad
visable, they vlll also bo referred for ap
proval or rejection. They are what Is
termed tho "salary grab" law, tho "scav
enger" bill, which provides for tho re
publication of tax lists wherein certain ab
breviations, were used In descriptions, and
tho law creating tho ofllco of dairy com
missioner. Tho latter Is not ns seriously
objected to as Its companions, although
snmo of Its restrictions aro regarded as
entirely unjust, and tho wholo proposition
unnecessary. Tho committee of reference
Is Thomas H. Ayers of Pierre, W. E. Kldd
of Aberdeen, William Healey of Miller, W.
T. IiFollott of Chambor'.aln nnd A. Sherln
of Wntcrtown. Tho committee will report

CHEYENNE, WyMarch 21. (Special.)
Engineer Woods of tho firm of Woods
Bros., which had chargo of construction
work on Sherman hill, passed through the
city ubI night en route to Sherman, whore
hn will gather up bis tools and go to Utah
to tako a contrntt on tho Central Pacific.
Mr. Woods had chargo of the construc
tion of Sherman tunnel and talked Inter
estingly to a friend of tho great project
that has Just been completed. Contrary to
expectations, ho says, tho contractors did
not make much money out of (he tunnel
work, as unlooked-for expenses wero in
curred In tho work.
When tho boro was started a plpo lino
wns laid between tho tunnel nnd Dalo creek
nml n pumping- plnnt established on tho
stream to furnish water for tho men nnd
hoisting engines, locomotives nml olcctrla
light plant. Tho work of driving tho tun
nel had progressed but a few yards when
water was unexpectedly encountered In
tho decomposed granlto nnd at a depth of
less than thirty feet. This walr Mowed
from both ends of tho tunnel nt the rate
of one-fourth of a cubic foot per second
uud whon cold weather came It required
a small army of men to shovel out Ice
as tho water frozo and keep tho ends of
tho tunnel open. In nddltion to this ex
pense tho workmen wero unnblo to ubo
black powder, owing to tho dampness, and
dynamite wns usf-d Instead. Illack powder
lifts the rock and earth In largo blocks,
whereas dynamite Is Inclined to scntter the
rock In small pieces. Tho extra work
necessitated In handling tbo email pieces
of rock cut tho profit of tho contractors.
Engineers and contractors nro imablo to
explain tho strange phenomenon of finding
such a flow of water on the top of tho
mountain at an elevation of over 8,000 feet
nnd nt a place where snow nover lies for
any length of time, being blown away by
tho strong wind.
Engineer Woodi looks for great activity

RERUN. March 24. The German press
today continues to express satisfaction nt
tho fact that the Tien Tain Incident has
been arranged. The papers point out how
Flc.ld Marshal von Wnldersec's odlcp, In
spite of foreign lllwlll, has proven bene
ficial. In this connection r number of
papers crltlclso thu llrltlsh stntcsmnn'a
disloyalty In Insinuating that tho Anglo
German nlllanco covered Manchuria, Count
von Iluelow'a specific declarations to the
contrary notwithstanding.
Tbo Lokal Anzelgcr says: "It Is well
understood thnt while no special paragraph
against Including Manchurlu wns put In a
verbal agreement nnd n plain understand
ing between the English nnd German con
tracting parties preceded tho drawing up of
tho agreement."
Tho Lokal Anzelgcr adds that loyal gov
ernments nro not In the habit of acting
In similar cases, even If nothing written
exists,
Italy has formally expressed the thanks
of tho Italian cabinet for Count von
Duclow's statements In tho Reichstag re
garding Italy's attitude In China.
Severe press comment continues on tho
subject of tho Kltchener-Ilothn negotia
tions, as revealed by documents submitted
to the Rrltlsh Parliament. Tbo opinion Is
unanimously expressed that Mr. Chamber
Iain In Ills blindness missed n good op
portunity for restoring peace, his terms
rendering It Impossible, for tho Doers to
accept them. The Tageblatt says Great
Britain is still insufficiently Impressed with
the difficulty of tb South Afrioan situa

sitions acceptable for the Uoers, "but,"
tho paper adds, "that will como later."
