ARMS FOR THE CUBANS
Maceo's Solders Received
I Much-Needed Supplies.
WERE LANDED IN PINAR DEL RIO
Expedition AT as Carried ly the Steamer
Three Friends Spanish Vessels
Were Eluded.
New Yobk, Sept. 11. Information
baa reached thia city that the steamer
Three Friends, which left Jacksonville
last Friday, has been successful in land
ing an expedition in Cuba, in spite of
the watchfulness of the Spanish war vessels-which
constantly patrol the coast.
The expedition was landed precisely
where the Spanieh navy department ex
erts its greatest vigilance, on the coast
of Finar del Kin province, where a few
weeks ago it was reported that the Cu
ban leader, Antonio Maceo, was in sore
tieed of ammunition and clothing for his
troops. The landing was effected last
Monday rear Bahia Honda, where a de
tachment of Maceo's forces which had
been sent to wait for the arrival of the
expedition took charge of it the moment
the cargo reached J.he beach.
The cargo which was landed consisted
of 1108 rifles, 460,000 rounds of ammuni
tion, one pneumatic dynamite gun, 2000
pounds of dynamite, 1000 machetes and
a large supply of medical stores ' and
clothing. The rifles are especially adapt
ed for the Mauser cartridge used by the
Spanish army, a supply of which the
Cubans allege can be captured or pur
chased from the Spanish troopB in Cuba.
The dynamite gun is the most prized
feature of this expedition, and the men
who are to handle it were sent down for
the purpose, and have good practice in
the way of using it to good advantage.
It is thought in Cuban circles that
with this supply of ammunition Maceo
will make an attack on the Pinar del
Rio trocha as Boon as General Gomez
moves from the east upon Havana this
autumn.
The steamer Bermuda, noted for her
filibustering exploits, has arrived in this
port, in charge of treasury department
officers. She will in future be command
ed by George W. Brown, who is credited
with having fitted out 10 expeditions to
Cuba daring the 10 years' war, the most
"rioted of which was the ill-fated ' Virgin
ius expedition.
CAME TO BEE M'KINLET.
Green Mountain State Delegates Visit
iCanton.
Cantos, Sept. 11. The day's demon
stration on the McKinley lawn opened
early with auspicious weather. The
Vermont delegation was 'the first to Ar
rive.. It was greeted with great enthu
siasm. The party of 108 included ex
Governor Woodbury, Lieutenant-Governor
Mansen, Congressman Henry H.
Powers, Senator Proctor, Governor-elect
Grout, Lieutenant-Governor-elect H. W.
Fish, General J: M. McCollougb, ex-Lieutenant-Governor
F.v S. ' Stranyan.
The Grand Army band, a large troop of
horsemen and the citizens' reception
committee gave them a warm reception.
A parade was organized to march to the
major's home, and just as the clocks
were striking 9, a large crowd was on
the lawn cheering for the Republican
nominee.
' Major McKinley appeared at the north
bend porch. About him were grouped
the Vermont committee and the most
conspicuous officials. In the window
back of him was Mrs.' McKinley. 1 The
enthusiastic Vermonters showed - no
Bigns of -abatement on account of their
long trip. A glee club from St. Albans
sang, "We Want Yer, McKinley, Yas
We Do."
State Chairman Merrill said :
"We come from a great and surprising
victory. The battle was fought solely
on national issues. The battle . in oar
state was won because the free -men of
Vermont, in consideration of both sides,
rejected with unalterable 'determination
the principles and heresies of your op
ponents." Colonel George T. Childr; national
. committeeman from Vermont, followed
in the same strain.. :
Childs said that 5000 patriotic Demo
crats joined with nearly 50,000 Republi-

' TWO FROM ONE FAMILY.
Blather and Daughter Sent to the In
sane Aftylum.
Okegon City, Sept. 11. Mrs. Mary
Jones, who claimed to be 76 years old,
but was probably 50. and her daughter,
Annie, 20 years old, were today ad
judged to be imbecile and committed to
the insane asylum. They belong to the
family of Thomas Jones, living about
five miles up the Abhrnethy, and neigh
bors say they had been starved into im
becility, though the examining physician
says they have been thus afflicted more
or less through their -whole lives. They
were most repulsive creatures, and had
to be outfitted with new clothes before
they could even be taken to the asylum.
The Election In Maine.
Augusta, Me., Sept. 11. J. -H. Man
ley, chairman .of the Republican state
committee, tonight summarized the sit
uation in Maine thus :
' "We shall caBt, (in Monday's election)
the largest Republican vote ever known.
We shall give the largest majority ever
given in a presidential year."
Mr, Man ley points out that the largest
majority the Republicans have had in
September elections in presidential
years was 19,818, in 1892, and shows
how much smaller it was in other years.
He then says : .
"If it is a pleasant day, the republi
cans expect to cast 80,000 votes on Mon
day next. The combined opposition can
not throw 60.000."
Was Badly Frightened.
Providence, Sept. 11. John Hughitt
who allowed himself to be buried alive
on the theory of hypnotic suggestion,
induced by Professor Watson, of London,
has been unearthed. Hughitt went to
sleep, but be woke up fourteen minutes
ahead of the (schedule time. When he
came to be made it known by pounding
upon the coffin, and during his struggles
dislocated his knee. . When be -was
brought to be lapsed into a death-like
stupor which the physicians almost mis
took for death. He was rubbed with
whisky and alcohol and revived. Hugh
itt says be will never do It again.
When he awoke he imagined he had
been buried alive, and was' almost
crazed. '
