of the Case Under Dispute Between the United State and Spain. The Mora claim, which has been pend-Isg for a quarter of a century, is again brought to public attention by the issuance of a demand from the state department of this government, insisting that Spain shall prompt ly pay the long overdue indemnity for gross injustice inflicted upon an American citizen during the rebellion antonio M. mora. in Cuba in 1869. The history of the case is interesting.

The claimant, Antonio 'Maximo Mora, now a resident of New York, was born Cuba and inherited a vast estate, con sisting mainly of an extensive sugar plantation. In 1853 he left his planta tion in the hands of trusted employees and went to New York, where he estab lished the commercial house of Mora, Navarro Co. In May, 1869, he took out hia final naturalization papers and became an American citizen, In the Cuban rebellion of 1869 Mora was unjustly accused of aiding the insurgents. Unfortunately he chanced to in Cuba at the time. A court martial was hastily convened Havana, and Mora was condemned to death, and his valuable estates were confiscated, despite the fact that he was a citizen of the United States.

After suffering great privations and enduring many perils he finally escaped to New York in the dis guise of a sailor. The attention of Hamilton Fish, then 11.1 i i 1 j. secretary of state, was called to the out rage, and Caleb Gushing, United States minister to Madrid, was directed to officially protest against the sentence of the court martial and demand repara-. tion. The Spanish government, though tacitly admitting the justice of the claim, pursued an evasive and dilatory policy regarding it, and years were passed in ineffectual negotiations and correspondence.

When Alfonso came to the throne, among the earliest acts of his administration was to order the restitution of Mora's estates, but the Cuban authori ties refused to obey the order. On the contrary, they sold the estates. Voluminous and ineffectual correspondence followed for the next ten years. In 1886 the Spanish cortes offered a compromise, agreeing to pay Mora $1,500,000 indemnity, which was but a 6mall portion of the original value of the property. This Mora accepted, but the money has not yet been paid.

Our government now demands prompt payment of the amount, with interest from 186. )Mora is now 80 years old, in feeble health, living with his daughter in comparative poverty in a four room flat in New York waiting for the restoration of some portion of the millions taken from him by Spain. A NOTABLE WEDDING. The ltecent Marriage of Ida B. Wells of Antilynching Fame.

The recent marriage at Chicago of Ida B. Wells to Ferdinand L. Barnett attracts considerable attention, owing to the world wide notoriety achieved by the bride in her crusade against lynching in the south, The engagement was the result of friendship growing out of business relations and ripening into love and was measurably due to the good offices of the late Frederick Douglass.
