Monday.
Washington, July 10. The main
topic of discussion before the cabinet
at the meeting was the message on
the subject of a currency commission
which has been withheld for a few
days in deference to the wishes of
many prominent Republicans. After

had been made against the presentation-
of the message, the president
and cabinet are still of the opinion
that In order to follow the party
promises the subject of currency re

CO ESSIONA
CUBA,
Many Cubans in Matanza,
The Long-Threatened Invasion of
That Province Has Commenced.
New York, July 10. A Herald dis
patch from Havana says:
The threatened invasion of Matan
zas province by the Insurgents has
begun. Several large todies of Cubans
have crossed the line from Santa
Clara and the strength of the force
engaged in the westward movement
is estimated from 4000 to 6000. La
Crete and Herle, who recently crossed
the Jucaro and Moron trocha and
passed into Santa Clara from Cama
guay, haye united with other leaders,
and there are now five or six chiefs,
each with a considerable following,
moving Into Matanzas, where the In
surgent forces were ordered to mobil
ize. Men have been summoned from
the plantations around and ordered
westward.
Whether the movement was ordered
to embarrass General Weylcr or to
distract attention from General
Gomez, who Is supposed to be hemmed
In by Spanish columns ncarSanctl
Splritus, is not yet clear. It may do
both.
The purpose of the gathering In
Matanzas is said to cover the lauding
of an expedition, which is due in that
province, and which will furnish the
combined forces with some additional
arms and cartridges and several rapid
lire field guns. After receiving tills
expedition Hie program mapped out
by- General Gomez Is for an advance
across Matanzas province, join
with the forces in Havana province,
and if all goes well a dcmonrtratlon
near the city of Havaua itself.
Qulntln Banderas, who rtcently
came from the East with 1C00 men,
and who was in In Mekinu del Sur two
weeks ago, has gone to Matanzas. The
entire force of rebels under Castillo
in this province is ready to Join with
those in the eastern province. Due
casse and his force of 2500 to 3000 men
may come from Pinar del Rio to take
part in the movement.
General Calixto Garcia, will remain
In Santiago province, but practically
all the other leaders of prominence of
the Insurgent sine haye been ordered
to meet in Matanzas.
Just what opposition the Spanish
troops will make to the movement Is
not yet certain. The sudden activity
in the rebel ranks after the rainy sea
son has well be begun, show that they
not able to move, despite the
muddy condition of the roads, and
frequent drenchlngs which they must
recelye. Any forced marches of
large bodies of Spanish troops to head
off the rebel movemgnt must result
In heavy losses from sickness, hard
ship and exposure.
EXPENDED BY GENERAL LEE.
Washington July 10. United
States Consul-General Lee has been
rendering some account to the gov
ernment of his expenditures of the
fund appropriated by congress for the

that of the total of $50,000 at the dis
posal of the consul-general, ho had
expended only $0000, and yet had
given substantial relief to every dis
tressed American whom he could find
ready to reccivo aid, and, besides, had
shipped some of them back to the
United States.

A Humane Act.
While the band, accompanied by
Superlntendant Potter, was o it at
Scotts Mills, attending the 4th. of
July celebration given at that place,
their attention was called to a bear
which was owned and kept by a, resi

fastened with a chain to a stake and
the chain was fastened to Its neck by
means of a wire and small leather
collar, the wire cutting into the
bear's neck whenever It would tug
at the chain. The result was that
the wire had penetrated the bears
neck to the depth of an inch and a
half.
The superintendent saw the bear
and pitied the poor creature which
was thus poorly treated and at tho
mercy of his unkind master so he pur
chased the bear and brought him
home to tho school where his wound
was cleansed and properly cared for.

regular intervals, scarcely two weeks

North Commercial street and ran
south at a fearful rate of speed, cross
ing the viaduct on South Commercial
street wheii they turned east. The
thick hedge fence surrounding tho
home of P. C Levar on south nigh
street proved no substantial obstruc
tion to the frightened steeds who sur
mounted the same, scarcely slacken
ing their speed. Neither did they
stop untlll they ran into a largoprunc
tree in a yard. Fortunately the wa

the wild run or It should certainly

RESOLUTIONS
Adopted by Salem Grange.
County Court Seyerly Censured and
Criminally Charged.
A very Interesting meeting of Sa
lem Grange No. 17 P. of II. was held
this morning In their hall In the State
Insurance Building. The grange
holds monthly meetings during tho
warm weather and today's session was
followed by a basket dinner.
Tho following rcoolutions were
adopted by the Grange this morning.
Tho resolutions severely censure tho
county court and more especially the
county judge and 6cvcrly arraign tho
minority grand Jurors. Tho resolu
tions arc as follows:
"Resolved, That it Is the sense of
Salem Grange that tho county judgo
and commissioners, of Marlon'county,
constituting the county court thereof,
have during tho past year, conducted
tho business affairs of said county in
a slip-shod and criminally careless
manners, to tho great loss of the tax
payers of tho said county, and that
the county Judge especially Is deserv
ing of not only the censure of every
honest citizen and taxpayer of paid
county, but Is also deserving of
criminal prosecution for fraud
and malfeasance in tho protended per
formance of his duty; that the mem
bers of -this grange believe that said
county Judgo Is unlit to hold said po
sition, cither through absolute lncom
potency or through a studied desire to
betray and Injure his constituency in
the interest of designing raiders on
the county treasury, and we demand
that he resign tho position which he
has thus nils-used."
"Resolved. That wo also censure
the three members of the late grand
Jury who signed tho "whitewashing"
report relativo to transactions of said
county court, and that wo bellovo
them unfit to occupy the Important
station of grand Jurors."

tore their clothes In the wire fence,
tumbled down and spilled their
peaches but managed to get away
from their small pursuer. However,
ho was sure of recognized them and Mr.
Clarko wishes these sneak thieves
and all others to understand that who
over In tho futuro depredates on his
fruit will bo punished to tho limit of
tho law. Ho says South Salem has
a number of citizens who need mak
ing an example of.

ial auction storo man, received tho
sad news today that his uephew,
