2 THE COURIER-JOURNAL, LOUISVILLE, WEDNESDAY MORNING. JULY 31, 1895. SAFE IN CUBA. Landing of Insurgent Expeditions After Many Difficulties. Regarded As a Most Serious Blow To Gen.

Campos. ARMS FOR THE REBELS, New York, July Cuban: revolutionary party has letters from Cuba announcing the safe landing of the commands of Maj. Gen. Carlos loff, Brig. Gen.

Jose Maria Rodriguez, Chief of Staff of Gen. Gomez, and Gen Sanchez. The expedition is said to have started from Two Keys, in the Bahama Islands, and was taken in small boats to several sailing crafts, which conveyed the whole party. Ammunition and arms were in some craft and the men in others, thus avoiding any danger from, capture. A Cuban said to-day: "The expedition of Roloff and Sanchez consisted of 275 men, almost all veterans of the last war.

They carried about 300 Winchester. and Remington rifles, besides a number of machetas and revolvers. One boat carried more than 500 pounds of dynamite, two small cannon and 500,000 rounds of ammunition. The second expedition under Rodriguez consisted of seventy-five picked men, all veterans and mostly officers. It carried about 150 repeating rifles, the same number, of machetas and revolvers and 200,000 of ammunition.

The two expeditions landed simultaneously on Thursday last on the southern coast of the province of Santa Clara." Tampa, July Roloft expedition, which is reported to have landed in Cuba, left Key West early in June. Up to the 17th inst. the party was detained on an obscure Florida key, owing to improper instructions given to a steamer which was to convey them to Cuba. The provisions they had afforded subsistence for a few days, after which they obtained food from adjacent keys. A secret messenger service was established with Cuban headquarters at New York via Tampa and arrangements made for rescuing the expedition.

The hardships while on this island exposed to the elements were great, and twenty-five out of 200 found it unendurable and deserted, making their way to Key West and Tampa, where they were put under the oath of secrecy. The landing of this expedition is considered as serious a blow to Campos. as his defeat at Valenzuela. That the expedition remained forty days on the key, escaping the vigilance of the United States patrol, is due to their excelient organization. he Cuban leaders were constantly afraid the expedition would be detected in its perilous position.

The steamer bearing Campos from Valenzuela to Cienfuegos must have sighted the filibustering steamer. ALL BUT PAID. Spain Agrees With This Country On the Amount of the Mora Claim. Madrid, July The Cabinet Council mment demands as payment for the Mora Indemnity. The Cabinet Council has authorized the arming of the troops in Cuba, with Manser rifles.

The Imparcial's' correspondent at Havana reports that in fight between Spanish troops and Cuban insurgents, in the district of Baracoa, the latter were dispersed with a loss of sixteen killed and many wounded. The Spaniards had thirty-one wounded. NEW CABINET. First Meeting of the Salisbury Ministry THE NEXT PARLIAMENT. February.

Argyle Wedded Again. London, July Arst Cabinet meeting since the general elections was held at the Foreign Office at noon today. It was expected that the Speakership would be one of the subjects discussed. The Marquis of Salisbury presided, and he and all the Cabinet MinIsters were loudly cheered on arriving at the Foreign Office. With the exception of the polling in Orkney and Shetland, which was formerly represented by Sir Lyell, a Liberal, and the result of which will not be known until the end of the week, the; new Parliament is now complete.

The division of parties is as follows: Conservatives, 841; 70; Government total, 411. Liberals, 174; McCarthyltes, 70; Parnellites, 13; Labor, 2. Total opposition, 259. Government majority, 156. Conservative majority over all 12.

Thus the Conservatives and the Liberal-Unionists, with a net gain of ninety seats, will have the largest majority in the memory of the present generation. The Conservatives are made independent even of a coalition of all the other parties, including the LiberalUnionists. The aggregate vote of the contested elections in Breat Britain was as follows: Conservatives and Liberal-Unionists, 1,725,455: Liberals, 1,628,247: Labor, 50.566; total, 3,404,268. But, as 114 of the Unionist candidates for Parliament were returned unopposed, no reliable estimate can be found of the electoral strength of the parties. The Liberal and Radical press are daily engaged in trying to explain the defeat, but to little purpose.

The broad fact of the situation is that the Conservatives are not likely to be displaced for five or six years, unless dissension should arise in the Cabinet between the sections led respectively by Mr. Balfour (Conservative) and Mr. Chamberlain (Liberal-Unionist.) The Ministers will prepare a brief and colorless royal speech and will then dispose of the estimates and adjourn Parliament until London, July The Duke of Argyle was married to-day to- Miss. Ina McNeill, formerly a -Lady of the Bedchamber to the Queen and a cousin of Sir John McNeill, who married the Duke of Argyle's sister. The ceremony took place at the Palace of Ripon, and was performed by the Bishop of Ripon, who is a cousin of the bride.

The wedding was quiet, owing to the recent death of Lord Colin Campbell, fifth son of the Duke of Argyle. Quakes at Florence. Florence, July -Slight shocks of earthquake occurred here to-day, which caused much alarm, in view of the city's recent terrifying experience. No serious damage, however, was done. In the city the shocks were more severe and caused more damage, Fined the Mob Leader.

London, July Wodehouse, eldest son of the Earl of Kimberley, who led the that attacked H. Rider Haggard, novelist, and his party mohe at Stalham, was to-day fined for his participation in the affair. VICTIM OF A JAYVILLE MOB. Woman Stripped of Her Clothing and Probably Fatally Beaten. Watertown, N.

July Hattie Covey, wife of Burt Covey, a restdent of Jayville, on the Carthage and Adirondack railroad, eloped Jurie 22 with John Kirch, superintendent of a saw mill, leaving one Kirch left a wife and four children. They went to Michigan, but becoming disatisfied, Mrs. Covey returned home Saturday night. She was told to leave town by the first train Monday morning, and did so, going to Harrisonville for legal advice. with a peace warrant she returne to Jayville, where her parents reside, and was met at the depot by a crowd of men, women and boys, who stripped her of her clothing and bruised her so terribly that she may die.

No arrests have been made. Jayville is a small backwoods village consisting mostly of huts. JUDGE CATTON DEAD. Was Ex-Justice of the Illinois Supreme Court Sudden Taking Off of Banker Wormser, of New York. DEATH OF CAPT.

George W. Didlake, one of the most prominent members of Gen. John H. Morgan's command in Lexington, died at his home here to-night, aged sixty-three. He was teller of the Fayette National Bank many years, and it was his boast that he never made a mistake of a cent during his long connection with that institution.

Ten or twelve years ago, when the bank was of i in 'he resigned. He was considered the soul of honor and indignantly spurned the idea of a personal investigation. He was considered one of Lexington's most Sudden End of Simon Wormser, Well- New York Banker. New York, July Wormser, of the banking firm of I. S.

Wormser, well known in California and throughout the United States, died suddenly at 9:40 o'clock to-night on the stoop of the residence of Dr. Gordon, 70 East Sixty-sixth street. The cause of his sudden death is thought to have been apoplexy. Mr. Wormser was apparently in good health.

He spent the evening until 9 o'clock playing pinochle with his brother at their home and then started for his customary. evening walk. Found Dead In Bed Monticello, July "Uncle Joe" Castello, aged sixty-two years, a brick-mason by trade and brother of Dr. J. W.

Castello, of this place, was found dead in his bed at a late hour Sunday afternoon. The body when found was almost in a state of decomposition, forty hours having expired since life became extinct. The last seen of Castello was Friday afternoon, at which time he appeared in fine spirits and good health, and it is supposed that he died from heart disease. Nothing was thought of his not putting in an appearance Saturday, as he was of a retiring disposition. He was Captain of a Missouri command during the late war.

Her husband died last April and to-day would have been the fiftieth anniversary of their marriage. Her remains will be buried in the Lexington cemetery to-morrow afternoon. A RICH LEAD VEIN. Said That It Will Yield 000 To the Tom.

Victor, July 30 -W. S. Stratton, the millionaire, has struck what is probably the richest lead ever found in any mine in the country, if not in the world. In the Independence the miners in following a lead ran across a vein that will run $140,000 to the ton. It was at a point where both veins come together and the width warrants the statement that there is not less than several millions of ore in sight.

THE TRIBUTE OF WOMEN. (Continued From First Page.) ness was so supreme that denial or Immolation of merely personal aims and desires could be neither practiced nor revered. It has been well for the world therefore that it has had its heroes and it martyrs; that men have lived in it moved by impulses which could make them forget all thought of personal comfort and safety, and strive only for the welfare of the race. The mighty deeds to which such incentive has given birth have vindicated the existence of the race and illustrated God's purpose in creating it, and stepping-stones in the rugged to path of its progress have aided its ascent higher and brighter realms. Yea! the very.

existence of the sentiment itseif, even where It has been required to offer no proof in heroic enterprise or suffering. has nevertheless had its effect on human conduct, making men better and happier. Who has not realized in his own experience how the contemplation of some generous act-some loyal and conscientious homage to the right--when all temptation warred against and no worldly reward was promised--has lifted the beholder from more sordid levels to loftier planes of aspiration and effort? Who can estimate the benefit of noble example, although it may be that those who imitate fall short of the exemplar? The flerce crusader could never emulate the patient forbearance and humility of Him whose emblem he bore and whose name he revered. His very zeal urged him to resentments his gentle Master would have rebuked, and made him too often forget the charity wheh, above all else, the Savior taught. But was he not a better Did not his work, wild and fan.tastic as it seems to us, avail more for mankind than if he had not striven to follow, however imperfectly, the example of Jesus of Nazareth? No man can attain the ideal standard of duty, or fulfill Its exact requirements; but when we cease honor those who bravely attempt it, and who attest their sincerity by every sacrifice, even that of life, all humanity will have become degenerate.

A people who can forget, or regard with indifference, its patroltic dead, is on the verge of national decadence and disgrace, from which no patriotic effort can save it-even if among such a people any remnant of patriotic spirit can gurvive, There may come a time--but woe to the world if it shall come when men will cease to feel this When that time comes all that makes life worth living will have been banished from the taught to belleve that individual liberty and the right of self-government were of supreme. Importance, they could never tamely submit to what they deemed menace and danger to both. Bred to peaceful pursuits and accustomed to consider war. even with a foreign enemy, as the least probable of contingencies, they deplored civil war as the direst of evils, while they accepted it is an inevitable necessity. Habituated to recognize and obey the authority of the States, rarely feeling and scarcely knowing the influence of the General Government or any exercise of its power, and instructed from their cradles in the creed that the right to govern depended on the consent of the governed, they regarded the controversy, erroneously, perhaps, but not unnaturally, as one between certain States on the one hand and other States on the other hand, all equal and sovereign, and resented and resisted the armed occupation of their own soil by the soldiers of the Federal Government as sternly as they would have met invasion under any other flag.

But whosoever may challenge the integrity of the opinions in which they were reared and which. impelled them to battle for Southern independence, no criticism, now or hereafter, can successfully impeach the absolute sincerity of their faith or the undaunted mettle with which it was maintained. With youthful ardor and flery zeal they rushed to arms, believing their cause invincible because they believed it just. When terrible disaster, which their vietories could neither arrest nor disguise, had dispelled all hope of ultimate success, they yet remained as firm in their fealty as in their convictions, and fought on with resolution unabated and devotion unimpaired. No change in the conditions or in the aspect of the struggle affected in anywise their heroic steadfastness of purpose.

They presented always the same front to fortune. When every augury seemed auspicious, or when each omen bade despair; in the exultation of vietory and in the gloom of defeat: when their banners were displayed in view of the Capitol at Washington, on the soil of Pennsylvania, or along the banks of the Ohio, or when the battle-worn armies of the Confederacy, dwindled into half-starved and thrice decimated remnants, which had scarce standIng room between the foe and the sea, or in thin line were holding the defenses of Richmond against a veteran host whose onset no other troops could have withstood for a day, at all times and under all trials, until theit dying eyes looked for the last time on the battle flag, and fading memory, even in the death pangs, brought before them the homes for which they died, these men held their lives consecrate to their country. And we, who are in 1 every sense their countrymen; we, who MEMORIAL. THE CONFEDERATE MONUMENT. MONUMENT.

But while our eyes are dimmed to sorrow when we think of them fallen, our hearts beat with pride when we member how and for what itself, they died.

The instant the massive bronze figure surmounting the shaft stood out against the sky cheering and clapping hands began and continued for some time. Scarcely had this ceased when the band struck up with "Way. Down, South in Dixie," while the throng of people met the sentiment with ringing cheers.

Faces changed quickly to expressions of sadness as the Confederate Choir sang sweetly and touchingly "Tell the Boys I'm Coming The closing prayer was offered by the Rev. J. M. Weaver: Almighty God, our Heavenly Father! We recognize Thee as the God of our fathers. Men die and nations perish, but Thou art from everlasting to everlasting the same immutable Being.

They loved so well.

We thank Thee for their lives of devotion and their heroic deaths. We invoke Thy richest blessings upon those still living and upon their children who honor the loved ones living and dead. May the memories of the brave and suffering ones of the past ever influence us to deeds of charity and kindness in our intercourse with our fellowcountrymen. Oh, God, we praise Thee to-day that peace and plenty bless our land in all sections, and that strife and sectional are buried in the 'graves of the dead. We thank Thee that love and charity rule all hearts and characterize the intercourse of all men with each other.

Bless our rulers and grant them wisdom to so conduct the affairs of state that Thy great name may be glorifled and the people benefited. Grant us these blessings and Thy name, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, shall have all the praise through Jesus Christ, our Redeemer. Amen. The choir sang "My Country, 'Tis of Thee," the audience joining.

and at 5:40 p. m. the benediction was pronounced by the Rev. G. B.

Overton. There was no Confederate flag to be seen in all of the decorations, but at the conclusion of the ceremonies the Rev. G. B. Overton and Capt.

John H. Weller held up from the front of the stand for display a large silk Confederate flag which had been torn and bullet-pierced while upheld by gallant Kentucky soldiers. The following explains the reason of the absence of Mrs. Hepburn at the unvailing of the Confederate monument: Louisville, July 29, -Mrs. Walter N.

Haldeman, Chairman Executive Committee, Kentucky Woman's Confederate Monument Association--My Dear Friend: A very sad death has come to me to-day in the loss of a beloved niece and God child. I can not unvail the Confederate Monument to-morrow, but I beg you to be my substitute, and I appoint you as such. In the absence of the Vice President, it is your duty, as Chairman of the Executive Committee, to act for me in our Kentucky Woman's Confederate Monument Association. Sincerely yours, SUSAN PRESTON HEPBURN, President K. W.

C. M. A THE PARADE. The Sidewalks Lined With People Throughout the March. ment.

HOW THE MONEY WAS RAISED. Struggles of the Women Before Suecess Crowned Their Efforts. The parade which preceded the conner-stone laying moved from Third avenue and Broadway shortly after o'clock and proceeded straight out Third avenue to the site of the monument. The sidewalks were lined with people throughout the distance of the march, and deep interest was manitested. Several houses on the route ware decorated in honor of the occasion.

followed by two platoons of police under Capts. Krakel and Haager. Then came the band composed of the boys of the Industrial School of Reform. Two hundred ex-Confederate soldiers under command of Capt. John IL.

Weller followed the band. They marched four abreast and formed an attractive sight. Each wore a badge of white and red silk, on which was printed a likeness of the monument. Lieut. Col.

Belknap and Col. Henry S. Cohn headed the column of the Loutsville Legion. The Drum and Bugle Corps was along and used its drums and bugles with fine effect. The procession was ended with an ambulance, new accessory to the Legion's equip- The Kentucky Woman's Confederate Monument Association has been an or.

ganization that proved popular from its inception. Now that the splendid monu. ment has been completed, it is inter. esting to trace the history of its commencement and the work that has been done by the noble women composing the organization. In May, 1887, a number of Confederates and their tamilies met in the basement of the Fourth and Walnut-street, Baptist church to arrange for decorating the graves of the Confeder.

ate dead at Cave Hill. While the arrangements were being discussed, Capt. John H. Leathers arose and spoke of the assistance the women might render the old soldiers of the lost cause if they were organized. He called Mrs.

W. H. Terrell to the chair, and proposed that some action toward such an end be then talked over. Mrs. Terrell was quainted with parliamentary rules, but with the assistance of Capt.

Leathers the monument movement was set on foot. When the meeting dispersed, it was agreed to assemble the tollowing week at the Polytechnic lecture-room and to organize at once. At that second meeting there were seventeen present. They were Col. and Mrs.

E. Polk Johnson. Dr. and Mrs. W.

Terrell, Mr. and Mrs. Albert H. Smith, Maj. and Mrs.

Clinton McClarty, Capt. and Mrs. J. H. Weller, Mrs.

Flora McDonald Williams, Mrs. G. W. Swearingen and Mrs. Thomas F.

Hargis. Mrs. E. Polk Johnson elected Secretary. Capt.

Leathers suggested that some woman of popularity and executive ability be selected as their President. He thought that Mrs. Susan Preston Hepburn would be just the person if she could be induced to accept. In accordance with that suggestion, Mrs. Johnson appointed Mrs.

Flora McDonald Williams and Mrs. Albert H. Smith to wait upon Mrs. Hepburn and ask her to accept the honor the association was anxious to confer upon her. She refused at first, but took several days to deliberate.

About the time she had concluded not to accept, Gen. Willlam Preston came on a visit to the city. He called upon her and advised her to accept the Presidency by all means, She then sent word to the association. Mrs. Hepburn entered into the work with enthusiasm, and brought along on the waves of her personal popularity the majority of the intelligent and refined women in the city, all of whom were ardent Southern sympathizers.

At the third meeting of the association, held at Polytechnic Hall, the organization was completed, and the fol- lowing, officers and committees were elected Mra. Hepburn, of Louisville, President. Vice Presidents for the State-at-LargeMrs. Joseph H. Lewis, Frankfort; Mrs.

At this first regular meeting great enthusiasm was aroused and a number of letters of approval and of regret at not being able to be present were Among those read were lettersfrom Mrs. R. G. Hays, John J. J.

E. Vincent and Mrs. Nellie Marshall McAfee, Gen. Alpheus Baker also made a stirring address. It is interesting to remark that Muldoon who were finally awarded the contract for the monument about ten years afterward, at this first meeting sent in letter and a photograph of a large granite and bronze monument that had just then been erected in Baltimore at cost of $20,000.

The association has worked very hard to raise the funds for the monument. The whole amount raised is about 200, and represents the toil and devotion of the women. In 1890 the secretary, Miss Annie Wilson, resigned and Mrs. Andrew Sea was elected in her place. Mra.

Susan P. Hepburn has the satisfaction of carrying out her work to its successtul completion. In the decade that has passed many entertainments and public affairs have taken place under the auspices of the association, that have made the social bond of interest among members very binding. The pubile has had the pleas. ure of many evenings of entertainment and can not tail to look back over the numerous entertainments with regret that such associations have now ended.

The first money for the fund was obtained by a lawn fete at the country home in Jefferson county of Mrs. Flora Williams. The second entertainment was picnic at Fisherville. The third a children's entertainment given the private school of Miss Henrietta Johnston, on Breckinridge street, near Fourth. An oyster supper was riven at the home of Mrs.

Albert Smith. The following four entertainments were the greatest Anancial successes, and from the first large sums were realized. They were a bazar riven at the residence of Mrs. W. N.
