Madrid, Dec. 21. Senor. Canovas
del Castillo had a long Interview with
the Duke of Teutan, .minister of for
eign affairs, and Admiral Beranger,
minister of marine. The subject of
discussion was kept a secret, but It Is
understood that the members of the
Spanish cabinet are considering the
introduction, In the near future, of
political -and administrative reforms
fop the colonics of Cuba and Porto
Rico. Such action, if taken, it Is be
lieved, will lead to a reconstruction of
the cabinet.
Senor Canovas del Castlllo.ln an in
tervicw.sald he knew through the me
dium of cablegrams received rromMIn
Isterde Lome.that a resolution look
ing to the Independence or Cuba would
be adopted by the UnitedStates senate
ftm til Iff tit ltltf lin Annr tint V,n1ln.,n l..i I
. H-iuou uaM While In
wungiu'js viu eventually pass resolu
tions of this' character, even though
opinion may influence the American
congress. Senor Castillo expresses a
doubt whether It will be able to In
fluence the other brandies of the Uni
ted States government and President
Cleveland.
Spain, so far, according to Premier
Canovas del Castillo, is satisiled with
the situation. Senor Castillo was of
the opinion that the secretary of state
had supported the cause of Internat
ional law with wisdom. Tho holidays,
he thought, would give congress time
for reflection. If however, the members
of theUnltedStateshouseof represen
tatives und senate persist in the atti
tude shown by the senate committee
on foreign affairs, Senor Canovas del
Castillo said that he had reason to be
lieve the president of the UnitedStates
would Interpose a veto, thus compel
ling the reiritioductlonof resolutions
favoring Cuban Independence, all of
which would take time.
Senor Castillo made the significant
and Important statement during the
course of the Interview that the recog
nition of belligerency and even the
independence of the Cubans, need not
necessarily be considered caucus belli;
but, nevertheless, he thought any
such" action on the part of the United
States government could not fail to
have its effect on the Spanish nation.
The governmentof Spain, he Insisted,
would determine for Itself whatcoursc
to pursue. Energetic action would
not be flacking, hei added, but he
thought It necessery that the govern
ment's action should not bo embar
rassed by manifestations.
In conclusions. Premier Castillo as
serted that the coursoRf events would
Indicate, before a conflict could arise,
.whether or not it would be necessary
to convoke a session of the cortcs.

SPANIARDS IN A FKENZV.
Few York, Dec. 21. The Evening
Post's copyrighted London cablegram
has the following:
"The Cuban resolution In the Uni
ted States senate would be re
garded here as little more than a use
ful safety value for Jingo sentiment,
did not Madrid telegrams show tho
highly inflammable state of the Span
ish populace. The outburst following
Maceo's death In which the court was
lorced to Join.Is described as bordering
on frenzy. It suggests how far Cast
illan sensitiveness and popular enth
usiasm may push the Spanish govern
ment without waiting for formal proof
of the validity of the action of con
gress. "In the event of a Spanish appeal to
the European powers,it Is remembered
that French protests are still heard
against the assumed American protec
torate over the continent, where
France has large Interests.
" 'America,' says the Manchester
Guardian, 'Is doing her best to

European diplomatic relations, by

other in which Europe is deeply inter
ested,'" Ducklen'e .Arnica balve.

Guthrie, O. T ., Dec. 21. There Is
great excitement at Cloud Chief over
a confession made by a young man
under arrest for killing Alva Tripp,
tho farmer found murdered In bed
last Sunday morning, to the effect
that he committed tho murder to get'
Christmas money, and secured $1.40.
He says he is one of a gang organized
to murder and rob a number of citi
zens for money to spend during the
holidays, and Implicates several
others.
Shot His Wife.
Fort Sott, Kan., Dec. 21. Late
this evening, While on their way to
make a call, William B. Reuo and
daughter, Mrs. May Bryant, were shot
and probably fatally wounded by
George Bryant. Bryant approached
them and asked If he could speak to
his wife, wliO'recentlylef-b home. Reno
replied "No," at which Byrant com
menced to shoot, Mr. Reno was shot
in the right breast and back, while
Mrs. Bryant received two bullets In
the back Just under tho shoulder.
Bryant fled after the shooting, and at
mianigiiL was sun at, large. The
would-be murderer Is about 35 years
old. Byrant is thought by his parents
and some companions to bo Insane.
Iuxisuoko, Dec. 21. At a
hour, last night, tho Jury in
Steovescasc had not returned a
diet. It stood ten"' for acquittal
two for conviction.1 There teems
little hope of a decision being reached.
When Judge MeHrlde,. on Friday
afternoon, charged the Jury, and ex
plained, that, unless a verdict was
rendered by fl o'clock, In time for him
to take the northbound train,- he
would havo to leave for St. Helens, It
was nopeu unit ocroro mat nour an
agreement might bo reached. This
did not prove to be the case.
The first ballot showed clghtof the
Jurors for acquittal and four for con
viction. This was the vote, It Is re
Sorted, untlll yesterday nfternoon,
when those who favored acquittal
gained two more votes, thojury stand
ing 10 to 2.
The two Jurors supposed to be stand
ing out for conviction are William
Bagley and J. C. Cooper, and, from
the well-known character of both
men, no one knowing them believes
that they will surrender their llrst
convictions, and, In the end, a mis
trial Is altcgathcr likely to bo the re
sult. A great amount of interest is shown
In Portland overthe result of tho trial.
Mr. Stcoves' friends have stood by him
from the first, and in addition he Is a
member of several different orders, tho
members of which alsost'ood by him.
Estimates of the cost of the Stecves
trial to Multnomah county rango from
$2500 to $4000. Brokers bought up war
rants to tho extent of $2500 at a lucra
tive discount. Thero were 03 witnesses
most of them for the prosecution.

Late Saturday afternoon Deputy
Sheriff E. E. Cooper arrested threo
hoboes, In tho vicinity of the reform
school, suspecting them of having
perpetrated tho crime. Thoy were
immediately brought to Salem and at
5:30 p. m. they were arraigned before
Justice II. A. Johnson, where they
gavo the names of Allen, Kccno and
Tom Reed. Their preliminary exam
inations were set for 0 a. m., today.
Allen and Kecnc were llrst brought
before Justlco Johnson but .tho evi
dence aduced In questioning the
"Knights of tho Road" was not sufll
clent to warrant the holding of the
accused for further examination on
the charge.
Tom Reed, tho last of the trio, was
next brought before Justice Johnson
und was subject to a very searching
interview, bqt upon motion of Dis
trict Attorney D. L. Ilaydcn tho case
was dismissed' owing to Insutllclent
evidence. Reed conducted his own
case in a skillful manner carefully
ovading all questions that
related to his relatives. and
previous residence and occupa
tion. When the examination of Reed
bad been conludcd and he was in
formed of his acquittal of the charge,
lie thanked Justice Johnson and
promptly left the court room. Officers
are still working on the case and hope
to be able to yet appreuenu tle guilty
party and meto Justice out to him.

Hobos cannot live without money
and something with which to satisfy
tho appctltc,any more than can a la
boring man. Tho majority of the
hobo clement In any community, Is a
class of men who will not work oven If
an opportunity Is offered them. Tho
company of hobos about Salem Is not
an exception to the general rulo as
above stated, Tho Southern Paclllo

city seems to bo n favorite camping
place for this worthless class of Indiv
iduals. Thero Is almost continually a

Early Sundoy evening two Salem
residences located on Summer and
Winter streets, respectvely, were bro
ken into and thoroughly ransacked
while tho occupants were attending
church. When Mr. and Mrs. v. J
Polly returned to their homo at No.
340 Winter street, thoy discovered
thatsomo one had thoroughly ran
sacked the building during their ab
sence. Entrance was .gainpd through
u kitchen, wlndowj by (removing the
serene and breaking the steel catch
with a chisel. Tho beds wore over
turned and tho bureau drawers
had been searched but thus far the
only articles that have been missed
are a silver watch casoand a pocket
book, which was fortunately, empty.
The "callers" evidently seemed to
havo been In Bcarcli of money as no
eatables were in tho least disturbed,
Tho house-breakers mado thler oxhlt
throngh tho samo window by which
they entered.
Tho resldenco of Mrs. A. F. Cox,
No. 341, Summer stroot, was al6o
entered last ovonlngand tho beds, fur
niture, etc., up-stalrs, wero over
turned, but nothing on tho first floor
appeared to have been touched. It Is
thought the house-breakers were
frightened away by people
returning from church be
fore they had. accomplished tho
object for which they called. En
trance to Hrs. Cox's home wus gained
tkrough a window from usldo porch.
The marks of the chisel remain on tlio
window-sill, occasioned by prying
epen tho window.
Salem can not well afford to prac
tice too much economy In her police
department when tho city Is Infested
by such u gang of luwless persons as
she now Is to all appearencca.
