Captain Laborde and others belonging
to the captured schooner Competitor,
and one or two Americans incarcerated
with them in Cabanaa fortress, will be
.called for public trial July 1." The
hearing will be before civil' judges,
and judgement will be based on the
declarations previously - made, within
the walls of the . prisons on evidence
taken by a government official or crown
prosecutor, acting on behalf of the
Spanish admiralty and war department.
The court will listen to no new testi
mony, save in support of the written
declaration already filed. '
George Ferran, the only witness the
Competitor men were permitted to call
on their behalf,- wa arrested immedi
ately after his examination and is still
a prisoner. . His sworn statement was
that the vessel was beyond, the three
mile limit, and had the, American flag
at her . "masthead, when , seized. This
statement displeased the Spaniards,
and' Ferran was therefore detained here
and charged with perjury." , '

' A Spanish magistrate said the men
would . undoubtedly be found guilty

being executed or deported. -Our peo

day. There was quite a large atten

A vacancy in the office of the secretary

George H. Currey. The committee on

" Portland, Or., June 27. Last night
there was a representative gathering
xt soumi-mbnej "democrats at the office
of GE. S. Wood, "pursuant, to call to
organize a Jefferson Club. Tho meet
ing was attended by" many democrats
who last- November. cither openly re
pudiated the' Bryan andSewall ticket,
nominated at Chicago, and supported
General Palmer, br else; openly gave
their support to the republican ticket.
The meeting was called to order
shortly after 8 o'clock by C. E. S.
Wood, 'who briefly", and . succinctly
stated the objects.'1 Mr. Wood spoke
earnestly on tne subject, and his re
marks met with general. approval.' In
the running discussion which, followed
there was a variety of , sentiments ex
pressed as to the. name by which the
organization to be. formed shou'd be
called.- :Many .favored'-, the. original
idea. of calling it the Jefferson 'Club.
Others suggested, that 'the" name of
Cleveland couia.De appropriately usea,
and still others; who still have a lin
gering regard for the word "democrat,"
thought that the name of '.'Democratic
Union" - would .-be- proper. It 'was
finally agreed that the name of Jeffer
son Club be adopted temporarily, ' and
that a change could be made at some
future meeting if a general -'-desire was
shown that the step be taken. '
"Permanent organization was then ef
fected by the election of the following
officers:' ' President, Zera Snow; first
vice-president, J. Couch Flanders;
second vice-president, Lazarus Acker
man; secretary and treasurer, A. King
Wilson. The "permanent officers will
constitute the executive board. The
roll of membership ha9 now- about 60
. names, and the projectors of the or
ganization have assurances that many
more will join.- - . ' : i -'. :. ..
" Article two of the constitution
adopted by the club, defines its objects
to be as follows:: The purposes of the
club shall be (1) to promote the prin
ciples of the' democratic party as 'de
clared In the'Hplalform of principles
thereof adopted at the national "con
vention of the party which convened
at Indianapolis, September 3, 1896; (2)
to encourage "the organization of like
political clubs throughout the state: (3)
to take part in political elections in the
state when the best interests of the
party demand.

Victoria Will Mot Hold Any More Public
Receptions.
London, June 28. Tho queen re
turned to London this afternoon, and
made what most probably was her last
jubilee appearance in the metropolis,
for with the celebration that closes at
Aldershot on Thursday next, the state
appearance of her majesty will be fin
ished, and henceforth for whatever
span of life may be left to her, Queen
Victoria will confine herself to such
work for the state as can be done at
Windsor, Balmoral or Osborne. All
of these official functions, drawing
rooms, public ceremonies opening
town halls, hospitals and the like will
now be relegated to the Prince and
Princess of Wales.
Her majesty has witnessed a scene
never surpassed in material splendor
and moral significance since the British
empire was created. The queen thinks,
so the statement runs, that she has
aono enough. Unexampled devotion
and acceptance of her obligations to
her people have after 60years well won
her a rest, and in so far as the sovereign
can, she now proposes to let the burden
of responsibility fall on those who
must bear it when she passes away.

THE "LARGEST CARBON.
I Owner, st Brazilian Scout, Has Refuse!
17.6O0 for the Stone.
Information has just reached New
York that the largest carbon ever found
has been discovered in the wilds of
Brazil. It weighs 3,033 carats, and is al
most as big as one's fist. The carbon ia
a much-sought stone. It is black, of
diauondiferous composition, and is the
hardest known substance. For this
reason it is used for drilling and is ex
tremely valuable. Small bits are found
frequently in dianiondlferous regions.
About, six months ago, M. B. Levy, a
diamond merchant of this city, started
on the Brazil workings. He worked his
way up the Amazon, partly a trip by
canoe and partly by the plodding mule.
Thus he traveled for nine layK, until
he came to a place called Jacreandor.
Near this spot a former scout of Mr.
Levy, one l'edro OunzaloR, had bought
a tract of land EG leagues in extent.
Part, in fact, nearly the whole, of this
stretch of property yields a choice
variety of boa eont.tri'c.tors and wild
beasts, but as Gunzalos had been fight
ing these creatures all his life he didn't
mind them. The attractive portion of
his land was a bit of clear ground on
which he had found a quartz bearing car
bon. He saw in this a fortune. He got
together n force of natives who were
only spasmodically industrious. Small
bits of carbon were found; not-, how
ever, in stich profusion as to satisfy
Gunzalos. He was becoming discour
aged.
One day two months after Mr. Levy'a
arrival Gunzalos' workman was hum
ming a song while dislodging quartz
in a perfunctory sort of way. Heob
served with surprise the outlines of a
large carbon in a fallen piece. He gazed
at the big stone a moment in amaze
ment, and then shouted exultingly to
the overseer. That solemn official
danced a jig when he took it from the
workman's hand, and Gunzalos treated
all hands liberally when the carbon
was brought to him. A few days after
he went to Jacreandor. He showed the
stone to Mr. Levy, who had been quietly
buying a few bargains in gems.
After inspecting it. critically, Mr.
Levy said: "I'll give you 3,500 for
the carbon."
Gunzalos rejected the offer with a
scornful gesture. "I'll sell it for 10,
300, and not a pound less," he said.
"But," insisted Mr. Levy, "it will cost
1,000 to cut the carbon. Nothing less
than a ten-ton hammer will make an
impression on it. You can see the ex
pense the buyer will be under."
"I think I shall have it kept- in a vault
in Paris for the present," said Gun
zalos, "and then I may send it to the
Cnited States."
The carbon is three and a half inches
long, three inches wide, and the same
in thickness. It is a trifle spongy on a
small area of the surface, but other
wise is solid. N. Y. Tribune.

"Of course I don't know much about
politics," she said, thoughtfully, "but
1 should think, John, that you'd some
times get caught in spite of all your
wisdom."
' "In one way I do," he replied, "but
a man who has been talking politics as
long as I have knows how to win a vic
tory even after he's been tripped up."
"But if you find that you're getting
the worst of the argument I don't
see "
"Oh, I just run in something about
the immutable laws of supply and de
mand," he interrupted, in his superior
way, "and it will prove a clincher for
any kind of argument in regard tc

COUNTING. OF THE VOTES.

The counting of votes has ben in
the past more fruitful of trickery anil
falsification than any other part of
the .election process.. In 1893 the can
voters in certain districts reduce the
matter , to its lowest terms by simply
reporting " a unanimous vote on their
side, mid then going out to fling up their

subsequent election competent and in

was. so small. If any existed, as never to

writer in Century, at the count not only
prevented intentional lying, but save.l
accidental -mistakes. In one case the
board of Inspectors confessed they did
not know how .to count the votes, and
submitted entirely to the guidance of
