TO FORCES TBI ISSUE.
Such Is President Cleveland's Plan
Regarding Cuba.
Washington, Dec. 2. A crisis in the
affairs of Cuba is rapidly approaching,
and there is every reason to believe that
President Cleveland has already decided
on action which will stanle the country
almost as much as his famous message
on the Venezuelan question, although
the exact time for the announcement de
pends somewhat on future operations in
; Cuba. .
By this action, the president will not
change his previous policy in regard to
Spain and Cuba, but will simply carry
it ont to its logical conclusion, which is
: a direct, and open threat of active inter
vention on the part of the United States
to secure peace in the island, whether
, by the independence of the patriots or
by voluntary action on the part of Spain.
From three different sources the policy
partially agreed upon between Secretary
Olney and President Cleveland was
learned, and the reports in each case
tallied with surprising unanimity.
A definite and somewhat startling an
nouncement on the Cuban question will
be made to congress, either in the regu
lar annual message or in a supplement
ary communication, as was the case with
the Venezuelan question.
Minister de Lome, of the Spanish le
gation, has been fully advised of the
impending announcement, and he ac
cepts what is in effect an ultimatum,
believing that Spain will be able to pre
vent, action on the part of the United
States by the success of Weyler's opera
tions in Cuba.
The policy adopted is scarcely a mat
ter of doubt ;any longer, unless there
should be some change in affairs in the
island through the success or failure of
Weyler's campaign, and the issne will
soon be sharply drawn between this
country and Spain.
FLOCK MILLS TO SHUT DOWN.
High Railroad Rates Bender the Bnsl
' ness Unprofitable.
Supekiob. Wis., Dec. 3. All of the
ten flour mills at the head of the lake
are nreDaring for a shut-down, and
within a week probably not a grinding
wbeei will be turning in Superior or
Dulutb. The suspension of operations
in contemplated chiefly because of navi
gation, but the falling off the flour mar
ket is responsible to some extent for the
decision. The millers expect to remain
idle about thirty days, in order to reduce
stocks and secure railroad rate's and then
it is expected they will be able to run
steadily nearly all winter.
Went Over to the Insurgents. -
Jacksonville, Fla., Dec. 3. A special
from Kpv West savs: News has been
received here that the troop of the Span
ish garrison at San Jose de las Jasas,
twenty miles southeast of Havana, aban-
. doned their posts and joined the insur
gents. . Many of the citizens accom
panied the troops nnd carried ammuni
tion with them. The news caused great
' excitement at the palace, and fresh
trosps were immediately sent to the po3t
and order restored. Before the troops
arrived anarchy reigned, and when the
troops reached the city many residents
were shot down in the streets.
An Asylum Burned.
New York, Dec. 3. The administra
tion building of the New Jersey state in
stitution for feeble-minded children, at
T I : . L. u :u . 1 ;AB
totally destroyed. The loss is $23,000.
Twenty-five teachers and others lodging
in the building escaped with most of
their effects. - There was no panic among

NOTES ON DRESS.
Fetching Design; Tnat the Early Autumn
, Has Revealed. ,
All the latest frocks have medium
sized if not actually narrow sleeves.
This -is now a 'we'll-recoB;.iized fact,-the
ami being covered with a tight-litting
smooth or wrinkled sleeve, with a verj'
slior.t puff or drapery arranged at the
very top.
It seems to be conceded that this sea
son any style whatever may be worn
Louise' XV.. Henry IV., Marie An
toinette, 1830; in fact, anything that
suits the style and taste of the wearer.
For this reason, doubtless, there seems
to be no very marked change in the
autumn gowns. Nevertheless, one can
not be too sure, as the dressmakers are
apt to reserve their surprises until
later; and. it is never safe to order
gowns until some decided fashionable
function, like the Horse Show, for in
stance, has shown the tendency of the
season. There are certain indications,
however, that may be followed by those
who desire to have a new but not too ex
pensive costume for the demi-season.
Nearly all the street costumes are made
with a jaelcet, either real or simulated,
for where a tight-fitting waist is pre
ferred, basques are frequently sewed
on to the bodice, the joining being cov
ered with the belt.
Corselets, too, are in great favor, and
the bolero jacket seems to have taken
a new lease of popularity, and, com
bined with the corselet or high-drapetl
belt, 'will be much worn this season.
A verv prettv green foulard covered
with strange hieroglyphics in white,
which are now so popular, is made with
a bolero slightly gathered nt the neck,
but otherwise fitting smoothly over the
bust and back. This is cut very open
and short, to show a draped belt of
dark red satin, hooked together in
front, with a couple of tiny ruffles of
embroidered red chiffon edging to
match. This at the top of the corselet-
belt turns back on either side and edges
a jabot of red ehiff cn, which is gathered
full, and so graduated that the em
broidered edge forms diamond-shaped
graduated squares to the neek, this ar
rangement filling the entire space left
open by the liolerd jacket. The sleeves
are long and tight fitting, with a very
short, full puff at the top. over which is
gathered a drapery of the silk lined
with red silk to match the chiffon front,
The skirt is plain, lined with red taffeta,
Kud finished at the bottom with a
couple of tiny ruffles, also lined with
red. St. Louis Republic.
ABOUT THE "SLOPPER."
His Researches In the Garbage Recep
tacles and His Finds.
"That man is a slopper," remarked a
police officer to a Washington Star
writer a few mornings since, "and he
and his class give us any amount of
trouble. If he stole" we could reach
him by law, but as he only finds we can
not easily reach him." In further ex
planation he said: "A slopper is a man
who searches through the garbage cans
ia the alleys in the rear of hotels, board
ing houses and private houses. Some
search for spoons, knives and forks
that are thrown into the garbage recep
tacles by careless servants, for it is a
fact that there are more silver spoons
and knives and forks thrown away
with the garbage than are stolen by
servants, though the contrary is gen
erally believed. The slopper is gener
ally an hour or so ahead of the garbage
collector apd. he is often more regular
;ind careful in his rounds tbaii the gar
bage man.
" 'By industry we thrive, as the line
in the copy-books used to contain, and
by industry on a good west end route.
especially one which takes in a num
ber of boarding houses or hotels, a slop
per can find enough tableware to pay
the expenses of his tour. Often he
makes a rich find. Very frequently he
has permission to 'slop' the can from
the owners of the house themselves, lor
he tells them he is on the lookout for
stray pieces of meat, etc., which he sells
to those who have dogs to feed, borne
sloppers are honest enough- to return
any silverware they may find for the
dog-meat privilege, but it is a terrible
temptation to many and one they can
not or do not at times withstana.

York Weekly Tribune
With the close of the Presidential Campaign THE TRIBUNE recognizes the
fact that the American people are now anxious to give their attention to home and
business interests. To meet this condition, politics will have far less space and
prominence, until another State or National occasion demands a renewal of the
light for the principles for which THE TRIBUNE has labored from its inception
to the present day, and won its greatest victories. -
Everv nossible effort will be put forth, and money freely spent, to make THE
WEEKLY"TRIBUNE pre-eminently a National Family Newspaper, interesting,
instructive, entertaining and indispensable to each member of the family.
