DEMANDS PROTECTION
Sister of Casanova Writes to
President Cleveland.
A PLEA IN HER BROTHER'S BEHALF
Be and' Ills Family Are All Naturalized
Americana and Kesidenta of
j . New York.
New- Yobk, May 5. The Herald this
morning says :
Mrs. Emilia Casanova de Villaverde,
Bister of Pedro Casanova, the American
citizen whose servants were ehot near
San Miguel de Cuba after the Spanish
column had raided the residence, was
seen at her home in this city last night.
She is nearly prostrated with anxiety
for her brother's safety, and has sent
the following telegram to President
Cleveland :
"My brother, Pedro Casanova and
family are American citizens. My
nephew, Julio Vidal, is a native-born
American. They have been trampled
upon, their house sacked, their servants
ehot, and their lives threatened by Span
ish troops in San Miguel. As an Ameri
can citizen I demand protection by the
United Statesjfor their lives J and prop
erty." ,
To a reporter she eaid : , -
"I read with horror and" indignation
the account o! the last outrage perpe
trated by the Spanish troops in San
Miguel. Tonight a letter came from my
sister in Havana, which tells me of all
the awful - details and confirms the re
port in every particular. My brother,
although born in Cuba, became an
American citizen in I860, and has made
his. home in New York city since. Own
ing large estates at San Miguel, he quite
naturally spent the .winter months in
Cuba, where he could look after, his in
terests on the island. He served many
years in the Seventh regiment, company
G, of the New York National Guard, re
ceiving an h'ohorable discharge. Being
an American citizen in the true sense of
the world, he did not want to take any
part in the present struggle in Cntu,
but remained there later than usual this
spring, hoping to save the property from
destruction. He was known to every
one as an American, and was respected
as such by the insurgents. . Word was
brought me by an officer of the Ward
line steamer, which has just arrived,
that General Weyler had ordered my
; brother and his family to leave the
Island. If this be true he will - prob
ably leave for New York by the next
steamer."

A Resolution Introduced By Call
In
the Senate.
, Washington, May 5. When the sen
ate met today (Jail introduced a resolu
tion requesting the president to protest
against the execution of American, citi
zens taken onjboard the schooner Com

notjsribject to' cruel treatment. Call
asked for its immediate adoption,

' out that this was a surprising course.
directing v . protest and a demand on
Spain', without fitly consideration. t
- (Jail insisted that the case was uigent,
reports being current that the prisoners
were to be executed. , If Great Britain
were involved there would be no hesita
tion about protesting. -
Wolcott answered that if the facts
were as Call stated it was the duty of
-the president to nrotest. and it was nre-
- TTl a t.ll r A fni fVia Dsnata '..olreaof Jka
president to do his duty. He.obiected
to immediate action. - The resolution

pathy and aid to the Cubans in their
fight with Spain, has been- taken. - A
call has been signed by several well
known colored men calling a mass meet
ing to be held tomorrow evening in the
municipal courtroom at 8 o'clock, "For
the purpose of extending sympathy and
aid to the Cubans iu the struggle for
independence.". One colored man worth
$100,000 takes up the cause with great
ardor. ,
COL. SOKTH'S BVDDEK DEATH.
The Nitrate King; Expired in London
Today. ,
Losdon, May 5. Colonel North, while
presiding at a meeting at the nitrate
company's offices today, fainted in his
chair and expired at 4 this afternoon.
Although the death of Colonel North
is believed to have been due to heart
disease, it is stated that shortly before
bis demise he ate a dozen oysters sent
him from a restaurant. The shells will
be examined. A couple of doctors were
summoned almost immediately after the
coionel fainted, but their efforts were
useless. There will be a post-mortem
examination of the' remains.
Officials of the nitrate ' company were
reluctant to admit that the colonel was
dead. His death caused great excite
ment in financial circles, and in the
lobby of the house of commons. Among
those in the room when Colonel North
fainted was bis eon, Captain North, in
whose arms the nitrate king expired.
THE FORMIDABLE UMBRELLA.
A French Tragedian Finds It Mightier
. Than the Sword.'
The affection 6f tiie collector for the
objects of his zeal has been amusingly
illustrated by a story told of Melingue,
a. French tragedian who had a mania
for gathering together great quantities
of old vestments, arms and similar an
tique apparatus. Among his treasured
was a beautiful and keen-edged sword
which had belonged to Philip II., son of
Emperor Charles V.
Having vyorn. this sword in a piece in
which he was performing, Melingue.
was making his way homeward in Paris
one night. The weather was rainy, and
he carried an umbrella, . Under his
cloak he bore the precious sword of
Philip II.
Coining around a corner, Melingue
was suddenly menaced by two eneal;
thieves. He was an' expert fencer, and
knew tiiat with the sword he could
qiiickly beat the rascals off. But he
said to himself:
"What! Betray to these rascals that
I have such a precious possession? No!
They, might be too much for me, after
till, and then they would get it. I will
keep it out of sight." ' ; -
So saying, he placed his left hand on
the hilt" of the sword inside his cloak,
and with the other hand let down, his
umbrella. With this as a weapon, he
assaulted the footpads with such force
and spirit that he put them to flight.
In. this case the umbrella turned out
to be mightier than the sword.
Something- -of a Change.
A French paper vouches for this dia
logue, which took place in a French
assize court, as being literally true:
- "Why," asked the judge of a man who
had been caught stealing provisions,
"did you ' attempt to rob this poor
baker ?" ' . ' 1 - .
"It was hunger that forced me to it,"
answered- the man. "When the forest
wolf is hunted from the woods by
starvation,- he takes his prey where he
can seize it
'jHush!" thundered the court, rapping
on. the desk: "He does nothing of the
sort.-. He endures his ills, repents, and
becomes an honest man!"
