WASHINGTON , Nov. 3. Assistant Secre
tary Howcll gave a hearing today to the
Netherlands minister on the question of the
assessment of a countervailing duty against
sugars Impoitcd from the Netherlands. Some
wuokH ago the department advised , collectors
of customs that the Netlicrlamla government
paid bounty on sugars produced In < uul
o.xportod from that country. The1 final liqui
dation of entries against these sugars was
directed to bo suspended pending a final de
termination of the question. The Nethor-
laiidn minister , at the hearing today , stated
tlmt his government paid a bounty on all
sugar produced In the country , but It did
not place any specific bounty on sugar ex
ported. The producer received the ramo
bounty on sugar sold for homo consumption
as on that which ho exported and hence the
bounty must bo held to be paid on produc
tion and not on exportation.

There Is a probability that In the near
future a new enterprise will bo ootabUshed
In the Black Hills. Slntb the establishment
of the chlorlnatlon plant for the treatment
ot ores In Dcadwood , hundreds of tons of
sulphuric acid and chloride of llmo have been
shaped In from the cast to be used at the
plant. There Is every condition found In
the Black Hills for the successful manufac
ture of these two products and others re
lated similarly. There are enormous veins
of Iron pyrites almost within the limits of
Dcadwood that contain at least 45 per cent
sulphur. Sulphuric acid U one of the most
common agents used In the chlorlnatlon pro
cess. It requires twenty and one-tenth
oounds for every ton of ore treated. The
market prlco In New VorV In $18 a ton and
when laid down In tno Hills It Is an expensive
article. It 1s estimated that It can bo manu-j
tacturcd In the Black Hills foi $11 a ton. The
pyrites which are Imported Into the United '
States contain an average of 35 to 45 per
cant sulphur and from $300,000 to $300,000
are annaully Imported , & largo portion ot
which comes from Nova Scotia at a coat of
$5 a ton. With the sulphuric acid , Is mixed
twelve- and two-tenths pounds ot chloride of
llmo with every ton of ore , which costs $40 ,
a ton laid down In the Hills. A large per-i '
ccntage of this comes from the British
makers , and It Is estimated tlmt It can bo.
manufactured In the Hlllb for $1C a ton. I
1
Mining men are especially Interested In
the subject because by reducing the cost of I
treating thu area at the chlorlnatlon plants
they will receive the direct benefit. Thcro. .
arc a number of m.lncs m the Hills that
could bo worked at a fair profit It the price
of ere treatment was slightly reduced. Those J
who nre Interested In tun enterprise believe I
that the several articles would come Into close
competition with those Imported when
shipped to the western mining states.

A few days ago a new slaughter house was .
burned at Pine Hldgo agency and Investlga- I
tlon rovcals the fact that the fire was started j
!
by a rough set of Indians who object to hav- j I
Ing their meat slaughtered for them. At the
time of the Wounded Knee affair a number I
of disgruntled Indians from the other agen
cies asked that they might remain at the I
Pine Hldgo ngcncy Instead of returning to ] i
their own agencies. They have since been [
a mob element , of which old Two Sticks was ,
a leading figure. Some time ago the gov- '
eminent began Iteming beef already slaugh
tered Instc-id of on the hoof , as formerly.
Slaughter houses were built wherever needed
and a malaritv of the Indians took to the
now way all right. This disgruntled set
from the outside agencies refused to cat
slaughtered meat and as the house Just
burned is near their camp. It Is suspected
that they wcro Instrumental In Its destruc
tion. H Is generally understood that the
government will Insist on making the
rofugcie eat slaughtered meat or go without.
Ati-lnvcstlgatlou Is In progress to ascertain
how thu building was destroyed.

MADRID , Nov. 3. Senor Salvlnl has writ ,
ten a letter to newspapers hero In reply to
I the article on the Cuban question Hibllshed
In an > American magazine , of which article
{ Haunts Taylor , the former United States I
[ minister to Spain Is the author. The Senor
gays :
"I am astounded at Mr. Taylor's article. "
Continuing , ho then proceeds to tell the fol
lowing story : "I met Mr. Taylor last fall
, In a street ot Madrid , and though out of
' prudcnco I asked him nothing , ho said :
J 'Spain must not suppress the Cuban tnsur-
I rectlon by force of arms alone , she must
carry out reforms. ' lie did not mention a
word about autonomy but , ho added : 'peace
'
will then follow Immediately. Spain has a
, friend In the White house whose powers are
cci the eve ot expiring. She ought to profit
by the opportunity to obtain peace speedily ,
for whoever succeeds him. ho Is certain to be
less favorable to Spain than President Clevo-
land. '
"I recognized the Importance of the fore
going declaration nnd I hastened to com *
munlcato with my friend Canovas , ( the for
mer premier ) , who warmly thanked me In a
letter which I haveretained. . Shortly attor-
wards the reforms ot Canovas began tobo
talked about and 1 was commissioned to ex
plain them to Mr. Taylor and to tell him
they would be published within a fortnight !
as actually occurred. Mr. Tnylor embraced
me , saying : 'You and I will bring about
peace In Cuba and thus powerfully contrlb-
ute to the good of humanity scid uphold the
great Interests of civilization by ending the
war , the prototype to crime , and the return
to barbarism. '
"I then hastened to communicate thcso
words In the proper quarter. Just prior to
these events Mr. Taylor , at lunioh In my
houce and In company with Castcllar and
others , toasted peace , warmly portcstlng his
admiration and love for Spain and expressing
the deslro to see us succeed In the work of
pacification.
' 'Shortly after the election of President
McKlnley , when It was mooted that Mr.
Sherman would bo made secretary of state ,
I asked Mr. Taylor If Spain would not have
reason to fear a man who In a speech In
the senate had displayed such hatred ot
Spain. Mr. Taylor replied : 'Don't notice
that , for Sherman as a responsible minister
will chance his opinions. Spain has nothing
to fear in. this reaped. '
"These Ideas and sentiments differ greatly
from those attributed to him now. "

POONAII. Nov. 3. The trial of Damodar
Chapekar , the Brahmin lawyer who was ar
rested October 4 last charged with being
connected with the murder of Lieutenant
Aycrat and Commlealoucr Rand June 22 last
by shooting them from ambush as they were
leaving the reception given by the governor
nt Greensklnd In honor of Queen Vic
toria's Jubilee and who on the day of arrest
confessed having murdered Coin mis-Jon or
Hand with the aid of an accomplice and also
committed by the authorities for tarring the
queen's statue at Bombay , was commenced
In the court house here today. The building
was strongly guarded in order to prevent
any demonstration upon the part of the pris
oner's friends. Chapekar adhered to his con
fession , but declined to make any further
statement. A number of Incriminating arti
cles , Including antiquated swords , pistols ,
anouH , slings and false bears , wcro placed
on a table beside the presiding magistrate.
Tim latter , after the usual formal proceed-
Ir.gs , adjourned trial until tomorrow.
Damodar Chapekar , the Brahmin , and ad-
. oca to of India who has confessed to thor
r urdcr of Health Commissioner Hand In
June last , and who Is accused of being con
cerned In the murder of Lieutenant Ayerst ,
Is no ordinary criminal , as the following par
ticulars regarding his crime and career will
show :
The prisoner Is about 28 years of age and
Is pronounced to bo well educated. About
two years ago ho established a club or read
ing room at Poonah and after a while he pro
posed that the members should , BO far as
possible , collect all the arms they could.
) When a certain quantity of arms had been
collected Chapekar began teaching the mem-
' bcrs to fcnco. When questioned as to his
j motlvo in collecting the arms ho said they
would prove useful In the event of further
disturbances with the Mohammodans. But
being twitted about his valor. Chapekar grew
I angry and In the dispute which followed the
I club was broken up and all the arms col
lected were taken to his house whllo ho was
nbucnt at Bombay.
On his return Chapckar burled the arms
and shortly afterward applied to the British
military authorities at Simla to be enlisted
as a soldier. Hut the reply he received was
that his application could not bo granted , as
It was Impossible to enlist a man of his par
ticular caste , the companies bolng all ot ono
caste. Then Chapekar offered to ralso a
whole company of Deccall Brahmins , pro
vided he was given eomo rank In the com
pany. This offer was also declined and from
these facts seem to liavo arisen Chapckar's
hatred ot the British and of the Indian gov
ernment , which first led him to cover with
tar the statue of Queen Victoria at Bombay ,
which ho followed up by going to Poonah
and committing several assaults on people

"So many people arc. ilylns of the plague ;

the author of this tyrAnny ? "
The police regard 'fh'ls as hiving been a
direct Incitement to kill Commissioner Hand ,
who was directing' th tf work of preventing
the spread of iho disease. In any case
Ch.ipekar and anotner man began to pro
cure anus and succcctlc > ! In getting more
swords , firearms and ] Wordstlcks. In his
statement made toj the police after his ar
rest Chapckar admits Jhat from that time
on ho began to systematically follow Com
missioner Ilnnd wlth'"tho object ot killing
him on Jubilee day. He went to St. Mary's
church on that day , saw the commissioner
there , but was unable to accomplish his
purpose on account of the crowd prcucnt.
Liter during the day ho again saw Commis
sioner Hand In the council hall , but as
there was a large force of police present
he once more postponed action.
On Jubilee night Chapekar and his ac
complices went to the Gancshklnd road and
loitered thct'a until after 11 o'clock. Ho saw
the commissioner drlvd away trom the
governor's reception and quickly followed
the carriage until It came to a spot which
ho believed offered him the best opportunity
of ojcsyc. Chapckar then run up behind the
carriage and , thrusting a pistol close to the
commissioner's side , he shot the man ho had
in-irked as his victim. While Chapekar and
his accomplices wuro still on the spot they
saw Lieutenant Aycrst's carriage close upon
them and thinking ho had witnessed their
crime , they shot him through the chest and
then made off , leaving their swords In n
neighboring culvert. The next day , fearing
that the pollco might ocarch his house ,
Chapckar put nil the arms Into a bundle and
threw them Into a well. He then escaped
to Ilombay and remained In that city until
arrested thei-e by the police. After his con-
losslon Chapckar took the pollco to the won
Into which the arms had oeen thrown. lie
was then formally examined by a magistrate
and committed for trial. '

HAVANA ( via Key Weat ) , Nov. 4. Mntnhal
Ulanco's reception has been marked by cold
ness en all sides. This Is due to the great
dissatisfaction mused -by his proclamations.
They have disgusted all parties. A former
director of the boatd ot autonomist party
said today to a representative of the Asso
ciated press :
" \Vo sltjccrcly hoped that wo would have
autonomy , but now wr > feel that we nrt not
to have It. Ulanco's policy of anKilgamatliii ;
all parties will not result as ho expects. We
will have only n eeml-nutnnomy , which will
serve to Increase the general dissat
isfaction , lly Insulting us In hl
proclamations Marshal Illnnco has
placed the question of surrender
on our part out of the question. There Is no
public sentiment In favor ot Illuico's policy.
Everybody is dlcsatlsllcd nnd annexation
seems to be the only solution of the problem.
The conservatives charge the government
with placing the rule of the Island In the
hands of autonomists and rebels and predict
there will be a return toVcyler' policy
when the government Is convinced that
autonomy la a failure. The autonomists are
disgusted at not being recognized by Blanco
In splto ot having supported thu policy hs
represents. Finally , all sympathizers with
the Insurgents openly declare that they will
refuse any and all overtures from the govern
ment. "
"A Cuban whrt recently returned from the
Chaffarlnc Island , where ho hod been de
ported for connection with the Cuban Junta ,
said today :
"Wo might accept autonomy It it were
given to na , but It Is simply ridiculous to
believe that wo are so foolish and mean
as to accept autonomy given to the autono
mist party , our eternal pnomy. Wo would
rather die with the conservatives. "
Kl Dlar dc la Marina , lr a leading editorial ,
attacks General Wtylcr for having ie-
fused to resign ft ml charges him
with having Incited public sentiment
In his favor , and with having solic
ited that the political parties should demand
his retention here. .
El Dlarro also violently assails Unnnls Tay
lor , former United States minister to Spain ,
saying : "Mr. Taylor , chagrined by his ro-
moral from oulce , now Insults Spain through
the press , although ho had always received
courteous treatment at Its hand and always
professed to bo Us friend. "

CITY OF MEXICO , Nov. 3. An oniclal re
port from a district In the state ot Guerrero
In which is situated San Cristobal mountain ,
says there are many Indications that a new-
volcano Is about to appear , as the aides ot
the mountains are Uully fissured and sul
phurous vapors are continually arising from
them , while noises as of distant explosions
nre hearj from Inside the mountain. A great
spring of water has begun to Mow from ono
llssurc and yet close at hand are Indications
of a tremendous force of Interior fires. Some
of the fissures measure 900 feet In length.
There Is much interest shown In this case
and scientific men are vlsltlrg the place ,
which Is In a very sparsely populated dls-
ttlct.
