A petition lias gone to Governor Rus
sell for the pardon of young Averiit
Butler. Seven years ag1) when lie was
only 14 years old. lie shot out! killed his
father, who was dragging his mother by
the hair, and bei ting her. He was con
demned for murder, but the sentiment in
Sampson county, where his home was,
was so slrong against hanging him, that
Governor Fowle commuted it to life im
prisonment. Now he will probably bo
pardoued. His prison record is line, lie
is a cousin of Senator Marion Butler.
The Literary circle of the Roman
Catholic church gave a lawn party Tues
day night in the beautiful grounds in
front of their church. It was one of the
prettiest sights ever seen here. The
grounds were illuminated with myriads
of chiiieso lanterns, and while cool, still
a handsome, sum was netted.
The new chief of police here has or
dered that the side walks all over the
city be kept cleared. It is hoped that
this will ba kept up, for heretofore the
blocking of tho $ido walks by goods
boxes ha:i been a perfect nuisance. Chief
of police Norwood has been presented
with a handsome gold badge.

It is a great pleasure to noie the rapid
growth, (and of such a permanent char
acter), of our little capital city. New
buildings are going up in all directions
and many. In fact most of them, are
handsome dwellings. If this conlinuer,
Raleigh will soon b' a large city. It is
already a beautiful one.

Washington. The government has
rested its case asainst Henry C. Huvc
meycr, the president of the American
Sugar Refining Company. Mr. John
son, of Philadelphia, the leading counsel
for the defense, moved that the judge
instruct the jury to find the defendant
nit guilty on six grounds.
First That the question as to local
and State contributions of the sugar
company was beyond the jurisdiction
of the Senate Committee and imperti
nent. Second That it was not part of Mr.
Havemeycr's duty to examine rec
ords for the purpose of answering
questions he could nst answer from
memory.
Third. That when data from books or
records are demanded such books or
records are tho best evidence.
Fourth That the question put to the
witness was too broad, covering irrele
vant matters.
Fifth That if the witness was to be
held recuscant it was the duty of the
committee to warn him that the question
was a committee,, not an individual,
question, and,
Sixth That the indictment did not
disclose a cause of action.
Mr. Johnson made nn argument of tin
hour and a half in support of his motion,
nnd when he had concluded District At
torney Davis asked for an adjournment,
which was granted. Mr. Davis will re
ply to the motion. The concluding tes
timony of the government offered was
not important save for the purpose of
making up the record as t,i what oc
curred in the Senate investigating com
mittee.

New York. The Washington corres
pondent of the Herald says:
Secretary Long has determined to or
der the Lancaster to return home from
the South Atlantic station, I am told
that the Department wants a supply ship
for the North Atlantic station, and the
Lancaster may be used for this purpose.
It is expected a gunboat will be sent to
t ne South Atlantic, where, after the re
turn of the Lancaster, the only remain
ing vessel will be the Castiue. It Is
generally believed that a larger ship in
addition will be assigned to the station,
and that the Secretary will then assign
one of the Commodores to thccommniid.
The Feru is now acting as the siyiply and
dispatch boat of the North Atlantic sta
tion, and the Lancaster may take her
place.
Tho Navy Department is making an
effort to have tho Treasury Department
return the Jamestown, which is now in
use in New York harbor for quarantine
purposes, but it is meeting with copshl
crable'ditHculty. The Jamestown is de
sired as a powder vessel to be stationed
in New York harbor.
Tho detail ot officers for the gunboat
Annapolis is now being prepared at the
Navy Deportment. I understand the
Secretary has selected Commander J. J.
Hunker to command this vessel. Com
mander Hunker is on duly at the New
York navy yard as ordnnnco officer.
The department has also decided to iav
sign Commander W. T. Swinburne, now
in charge of the Department of Seaman
ship at the Naval Academy, to the com
mand of the gunboat Helena, which
is now being completed at Newport
Nowa.
Just as soon as' tho Nashville can be
made ready for sea and a crew secured
to man her. Commander Washburn May-,
nard will be detached from the Bureau
of Equipment and ordered to command
her.
The Navy Department has lieen in
formed that I he gunboat Princeton will
be launched from the works of Dialogue
& 8on, Camdnn, N. J.) on June 8rd. The
authorities no nol expect that she will
be roady for commission beforo October
15th.
Tho battleship Massachusetts, Captain
Frederick Dodgers, commanding -will
leave the New York navy-yard for Boston
where tho hronte statuo of Llbcrty.wh'.ch

Spain Talks ax to Course of I'niled
States on Cuban Ouestiou. iliin'l
Monkey With Tail," Advice
is Given.
Washington, D. C Consul General
Lee cabled the Stale Department from
Havana that the amount of Miopias lie
has now on hand there for the relief of
American citizens in distress is nlmiiilanl
and will last for some lime. Presuma
bly this statement appli"s generally to ail
consulates, for the consul general lu.s
been in consultation with the subordinate
consuls on Ibis matter, by direction of
tho Secretary of Suite. At any late the
department will now pause before mov
ing further in the distribution of relief.
Steps were begun to hurry forward sup
plies from this country to Cuba jus! as
soon as General Lee was heard Iroui.
General Sullivan, commissary general
has selected one of his most experienced
assistants, Ouitnin Davis, who rendered
such good service at Memphis in the re
lief of the flood Eiifferers lo go to Cuba
with the supplies, if mccssnry, nnil dis
tribute them under the general plans of
General Lee. The New York commissa
ry depot was to undertake the purchase
of the supplies. Then Mr. It. A. Smith,
a director in one of I he steamship lines
plyina between New York and Havana,
had offered free transportation to Culm
of the supplies ncd everything was in
the train to hey in to move as soon ns
word came from General Lee. Now.
however, the deparlinenl will wait until
General Lee nolilies it that there is fur
ther need for relief before putting its
plan into operation.
Havana. El Uiario do la Marina, in a
leading editorial savs:
"We see in the American newspapers
evidence that there are certain social
classes in the 1'nited Stales not siilli
ciently alive to tho importance of the ad
vice: 'Don't monkey with the lions tail.'
These classes are leinni kahle for I lie
eagerness with which they invade juris
diction in all'.iirs which, like the Cuban
war, are exclusively the affairs of t'pain.
'The persistency ivilh which they rec-
onize the belligereiicv of the insurgents
is crazv and ridiculous. The important
conservative interests in Ihc I'niled
Slates should not forget that the patience
of Spain may soon become exhausted.
The Spanish government has given abun
dant proofs of its sood will by ignoring
tho many inconveniences that have been
caused by resolutions in Congress, Those
interests ought to be thankful to us for
our abnegation. c have suffered, but
in case the sword should lie unsheathed
Spam would certainly not be the heai ic.st
loser ill the fighl.-
'Spain has sent SOO.Ono men to Cuba
to settle n domestic dilliriiltv, What
would sho not do in the event of a for
eign war with the nation w hich for a
century bits abused our paticn.o by ig
noring Spanish honor and chivalry? I'r.is
ident McKinley should considerlhiscare
fully, and if he is to deal with us as
enemies, let him take the advice of an
enemy, and no longer trille with us. '

reported favorably on the projected loan
to be secured by the Aliniideii quicksilver
mines and upon the various extraordi

Deputies adopted tlieni, Including the
State monopoly of explosives.
Tho President has sent to the Senate
the recent correspondence in the ease of
the claim of. Victor 1L McCord vs. the
Government of Peru. The correspondence
shows that Secretary Gluey pressed the
claim vigorously upon the attention of
the Peruvian Government, but that he
