movement on foot among tportiug men
to form a society that will probably be

John D. Spreckles, Thomas H. Will

who are not opposed to such exhibi
tion will have the support and appro
val of the association.

as to the status of Julio Sanguilly'a
case, Captain-General Weyler offi
cially stated that the affair was now
beyond his jurisdiction, and wholly
in tbe hands of tbe civil courts. When
Sunguilly was tried in December last,
certain exceptions to the proceedings
were noted by bis counsel. Then Con-sul-Ueneral
Williams objected to the
fact that bia tentence wat based on the
original testimony taken at the court
martial. These exceptions have gone
to the supreme court of Madrid for
consideration, where the eminent
Spanish statesman and jurist Seuor
Saloneron ia acting counsel for the
prisoner.
Sanguilly himself remains in Cabanas
castle here, peuding a final verdict
Uocccupiea the most luxurious quar
ters in the cattle, and the Spanish
officials treat him with great considera
tion. His wife aud most intimate
Cuban friends are allowed to visit him
whenever they desire aud he receives
bit meala from a noted Havana restau
rant He has, in fact, every oomfort
possible under the circumstances.
