N WITH UELE SAM ANTAGONIST4C. FORCES IN CUBA CAUSED ASSAULT ON CHARGE, DECLARES RIVERO. ATTACKS MADE BY PRESS -Publication of Libelous Anti-American Aeticles Brought to Attention of State Department. Washingto.-"That Enrique Maza, the reporter who attacked Hugh Gib son, American charge of the legation in Havana,. was, merely a tool in the hands of Cuban plotters antagonistic to the United States, and who would like to get the Cuban government into trouble with this country, was the opinion expressed here by Senor Mar tin-Rivero, the Cuban minister. He was of thie belief, he. said, that Maza had not attacked Mr. Gibson of his own' volition, but that he had been urged on by ' others who had1 made him think he had been insulted and that he should seek revenge. Under no circumstances, no matter what his. provocation may have been, said the minister, was Maza justified in th6 action he took. That justice would be done inthe case was the declaration of Senor Martin River.o. The mnister has notified his gov ernment of the demands of the United States that the assailant be punished. As soon as he had learned of the at tack, the minister had "spontaneously r . sent word to Cuba," he said, "that the United States had laws rendering vir tually Immune from attack the per sons of foreign representatives here, and that on account of this reciproc Ity, the full -vigor of the Cuban law would be applied. In case a country which doesn't protect Cuban represen tatives," said the minister, "no fur ther rights are extended to its diplo mats than to any other foreigners." He immediately called attention, he said, to' this clause in their laws. Havana. Cuba.-In consequence of a vigorous protest by Hugh Gibson, the charge d'affaires of the American lega tion here, against .&e release on triv ial bail of Enrique Maza, the news paper reporter who assaulted him, Maza was arrested for the third time by order of the audiencia court and committed to jail to await indictment. Immediately after the re-arrest -of Maza, the squad of secret service ipen who had been detailed to watch the American legation and to attend Mr. Gibsdn wherever he went, was re lieved from duty. Mr. Gibson's vigorous insistence that his assailant be prosecuted arous S ed a fresh storm of indignation cf the pir press. Mother and Six Children Cremated. Rutherford, N. J.-Mrs. Smilio De Baro and six of her seven children, ranging from five months to' 12 years of age, met death in a fire which de stroyed their home. DeBaro, the h-us band and father, and the seventh child, a boy of '13,-escaped bof jumping from' a second-story window. De Baro and his family made their home on the second fioor of a frame house. Mrs. DeBaro and the six younger children slept in a rear room and the father and the oldest boy ih the front. DeBaro and the boy tried to rescue the woman and children, but a wall of fire checked them. With their night clothing ablaze, they jumped from the window. Dies in Electric Chair. Eddyville, Ky.-Cal Miracle, arrest ed in Alabama last winter and then brought back to Kentucky to stand trial for the murder of a man and a woman in Bell codnty last August, was electrocuted in the state peniten tiary here.

Mr. Innes was instructed by his government to file the protest and he sent it to the staite department. It stated merely that Great Britain still stands in her previously explained at titude in regard to the Panama bill. The tone of the note makes it appear that Great Britain believes it will be necessary to submit the question to arbitration.

When the Democratic executive :ommittee for Alken county was call d to order by County Chairman B. H. Vise to tabulate officially the votes ast at the various boxes In this, coun y and to declare the results, the ommittee faced the same proposition hat the state exceutive committee ;oes up against when it meets in Co umba. H. M4. Cassels of Ellenton ,ppeared to protest the election in this ounty and demanded a complete re ount. He based his protest upon ndisputable Irregularities. protests Vote in Five Precincts. The Union county Democratic exe utive committee met to tabulate the lection returns and declare the elec ion. L. G. Southard of Jonesvllle lied notice of a contest in the vote or governor and demanded that the onmittee count all the votes cast in hat race. He contested the votes rolled in the following boxes: Ward ,Buffalo, Monarch, Lockhart, Kelton nd Bibbs, all but the last two being miil precincts. An interesting situa ion seems to exist in the race for heriff. " Preserve the Primary. State Chairman John Gary Evans rrived in Columbia, and being asked r a statement regarding the tele r-am Senator Tillman sent him several ays ago dictated the following~ rimary election in South. thile limited to the andidates ; of the et the person rc ~on isp ti ut one y in In the race for the United States senate B. R. Tillman, the incumbent, continued to run strongly, with the indications that he would go on in the first ballot. He more than dou bled N. B. Dial's votes and lacked but little of gaining a similar decisive advantage over W. J. Talbert, his other opponent. The vote: Tillman 61,700, Talbert 31,176, Dial . 23,563. Tillman's majority. 6,961. For attorney general, J. Fraser Ly on, the incumbent, was running well in front, but lacked the necessary majority, and It was apparent that lie would have to make a second race with Thos. J. Peeples of Barnwell. Mr. Lyon was nearly 13,000 votes ahead of Mr. Peeples, but the voting of the other two candidates more than made this up. The vote stood: Lyon 52,411, Peeples 38,791, John R. Earle 12,200, B. B. Evans 10,823. For State treasurer, S. T. Carter kept up his remarkable run, bringing his vote up to 72,557, to 41,376 for his opponent, D. W. McLaurin.. John G. Richards, Jr., seems likely to go into office for another term as railroad commissioner without having the trouble of going into a second race. At a late hour Mr. Richards was leading the race by a big margin, and had enough lead, if held, to. do away -with the necessity of a second race. Mr. Richards' majority over both his opponents is 1,166. Later returns, however, may cut this away. Aside from the large vote cast, a feature of the primary was the over turn in many counties that went to Blease in the last primary. Notable among these were Orangeburg and Charleston, especially the later. Orange burg, which went- to Blease by a small majority in 1910, gave Jones a majority of ,almost 1,000. Richland county, where the fight raged hot all the time, gave a -ma-i jority to Blease, but it -was far less than that by which the county, went to'the governor In the last primary.. Dorchester went foi Jones by a small majority, as did Calhoun, but Dillon swung into the Blease column, along with Marion. Darlington was 'about the same as Marion. In Flor ence the race was close, with Jones finally getting the advantage Anderson's vast majority was what really turned the scale, on the face of the returns, in favor of Blease. Aiken, which last time went to the governor strongly, this time gave him a comparatively small majority. ' In Chester the 'two candidates got an even. break, the* vote being ex actly the same. t GOVERNOR AND SENATOR. overnor. U. S.
