Three Distinct Resolutions Offer-
ed in the Senate.
TWO FOR INTERVENTION
IIr. Illuson’s Resolution Requests Presi-
dent lVIcKinley That “’0 Maintain
Peace in the Island-"Senator Allen 01‘-
fers the Belligereucy Declaration.
Washington, Feb. 9.——In the Sengte
yesterday Mr. Allen (Neb.) said in pre-
senting a. Cuban amendment to the
Diplomatic and Consular Appropriation
bill that since the opening of hostil-
Ities in Cuba more than 300,000 pacificos
had died of starvation, or of disease di-
rectly traceable to insufficient food or
lack of proper sanitary conditions.
Mr. Canon (Utah) then offered the
following resolution which he asked to
'ie over until to-day, when he would
submit some remarks:
Whereas, The people of the Republic
of Cuba are and of right ought to be
free and independent, and
Whereas, The continuance of the bar-
barious warfare of Spain in her at-
tempt to subjugate the patriots of that
republic in violation of the law of hu-
manity is a. menace to freedom and
progress of the peoples of the l‘Vestern
Hemisphere and is full justification for
a, demand by the Government of the
United States that Spain shall with-
draw her land and naval forces from
Cuba and Cuban waters and shall leave
that republic and her people to their
enjoyment of life, liberty and the pur-
suit of happiness; therefore, be it
Resolved, By the Senate, that the
President of the United States is urged
lo notify the kingdom of Spain that if
Spain shall fail to recognize the inde-
pendence of the Republic of Cuba on
or before the 4th day of March, 1898,
the Government of the United States
will on that date recognize the bellig-
erency of the Cuban patriots and will
within ninetydays thereafterassert the
r'ndependence of the Republic of Cuba.
The llIason Resolution.
Mr. Mason (111.) kept the Cuban ball
rolling by offering another resolution
giving notice that he would to-day at
the conclusion of Mr. Canon’s remarks
lddress the Senate upon the resolution.
They are as follows:
Resolved, That the President of the
United States be and he is hereby re-
quested to notify Spain and the in—
surgents of Cuba that the war (so-
:aled) must at once cease and be dis-
continued, and that the United States
nereby declares and will maintain
oeace on the Island of Cuba.
The resolution of Mr. Mason was pre-
aeded by the following preamble:
“Whereas, The war between Spain
Ind the insurgents of Cuba has contin-
Ied until all Christendom is shocked by
'lts barbarieties. Pretended autonomy
has been offered by Spain and refused
by the Cubans in arms. The Spaniards,
IS a war measure, burned the homes
ind drove the women and chidren
Psince known as concentrados) into for—
zified town, where some of them have
oeen starved; others have been mur-
ilered, and women and children have
been debauched and treated beyond the
power of language to describe. Daugh-
:ers of insurgent soldiers have,b-een
sold into houses of infamy and boys
of tender years have been shot as spies
mder the form of civilized war. Amer-
can citizens have been driven into the
towns and refused an opportunity to
work, and left to starve, as a part of
the Spanish war measures, until we
were compelled to take, by appropriat-
=ng funds of the people of the United
States, large sums of money to feed
Ind clothe our citizens, and to return
them to our country; and now has the
Epanish war measure of concentration
continued so far that the concentrados
ire unfed and starving, naked and
filthy, in so much that disease and
leath is among them, and has spread
nto our country. Hundreds of thou-
sands have perished in this way, and
by this means.
“The unholy work of extermination
goes on, the slaughter of innocents and
rion-combatants goes on, the flag of
truce has been abandoned and exter—
mination or' independence of the in—
liirgents must be the final outcome. The
people of the United States are send-
ng money,, food and clothing to Cuba
.0 aid the dying Cubans which ought to
Lie furnished by Spain, for the reason
that the concentrados are the legiti—
mate wards of Spain, having been put
'11 their present starving condition as
L Spanish war measure, and their care
would devolve upon Spain and would
so be regarded by every civilized na—
iion in the world. Under the present
:harity seeking of the administrauon
:haritably disposed citizens of I the
United States cannot contribute money,
medicine, food or clothing to the in-
surgents in the field or hospital, and
should any attempt be made to do so,
t would be captured and prevented by
arder of the Government of the United
States.” ~ -
The resolution goes on to say that all
oarties declared before the last elec-
tion in favor of the independence of
Cuba, and the Republican party em—
phasized its opinion by inserting a
plank on the matter in its platform at
the St. Louis convention.
A Crisis Possible.
These resolutions are simply Senate
ieclarations and carry no force except
:0 show the opinion of the Senate. The
Eb‘esident may act or not upon the sug-
gestlrns. It will be remembered that
President Cleveland pigeon-holed the
Armenian resolutions, which were sim-
oly Senate declarations, and if these
pass they can be treated the same way.
Flt effect, however, will be different
np"n the Spanish people, who do not
understand the methods of the Senate.
The situation is such that a discussion
Iver these resolutions might bring on a
:risis at once. The President and his
Cabinet fully realize this, and at the
L‘abinet meetings yesterday the mat-
zer Iwas discussed.
A message was received from the
American Minister at Madrid relating
Io Spain’s answer to the note sent by
Ihe State Department last December in
vegard to th filibusters.\ This message
Irom Gen. Woodford did not contain
the reply of the Spanish Minister, but
gimply a statement that the letter from
{he Spanish Government was not yet
completed, but that he had been fur-
nished an abstract of its contents. The
Spanish Minister does not confine his
note to the subject of filibustering, but
liscusses the situation in Cuba, and
gain asks this Government not to take
my action at present, but to give to
T0 Shiloh WAR:
'WERKLY-
trial. In other words, it is evident that
Sagasta intends to try for further dc—
lay, as the situation in Spain, as well
as Cuba, is most critical. The Span-
Ish elections are approaching, and the
Government is fearful should any out-
break occur or intervention take place
on the part of the United States, it
would cause a. revolution in Spain.
While Gen. Woodford declares in his
last message that there is no change
in the policy of the Spanish Govern-
ment toward the United States, and the
officials of this Government declare
that the President is still firm in his
policy, there is, nevertheless, a feeling
of uneasiness apparent, not only at the
State Department, but at the Capitol.
It was reported yesterday that the
President was preparing a special mes-
sage to Congress on the Cuban ques-
tion, with which ’he would transmit
correspondence with the Spanish Gov-
ernment, Minister Woodford and Con-
sul-General Lee, in order to prevent
1 action, on any resolution calling on the
Government to recognize the belliger—
ency of Cuba or to intervene forcibly.
The report was not confirmed by oifi-
cial sources.
Situation in Havana.
Dispatches from Havana show that
the situation there is, to say the least,
critical. The Spanish residents are
fearful, should Spain fail, that the Cu-
bans will take possession, and this
means not only the destruction of their
property, but the taking of their lives.
Anarchy would reign, and, therefore,
they are now expressing a desire for
annexation to the United States, so as
to have this Government’s protection
should the Spanish be defeated.
It is also evident that the least overt
act in Cuba will start a disturbance.
and should there be a demonstration
against the American sailors, no one
could answer for the result. The fact
that the Maine is going to remain at
Havana may necessitate “shore leave"
for the sailors, and what would happen
I the scheme of autonomy a little longer
the Chilian incident, in which the sail—
ors of the‘ Baltimore played such a
large part.
Another thing which is exciting a
great deal of comment just at present
is the fact that a Spanish gunboat is
following the Montgomery on its cruise
to the Cuban ports. The Montgomery
sailed from Matanzas on Saturday for
Santiago, where she arrived yesterday,
and the Spanish gunboat Antonio Lo-
pez left at the same time for Santi-
ago, and is no doubt in port with the
Montgomery. This espionage by the
Spaniards is not relished by the Amer-
ican jack tars, and it may be a factor
which will cause trouble.
The agitation of the Cuban question
in Congress, which begins in earnest
to-day, means that the hopes for an
early adjournment are threatened, and
there will be further delay for the Ha—
waiian treaty. The Cuban sympathiz-
ers are trying to force the President’s
hand on Cuba, and intend to hold up
the measures he is most interested in.
The adding of the Allen resolution will
undoubtedly postpone the passage of
the Diplomatic and Consular bill by the
Senate until something definite has oc-
curred in Cuba as to render the pass-
age of the belligerency resolution
harmless or useless. This means that
the Appropriation bills will be delayed,
and, if the Cuban question drags along
until spring, the Diplomatic bill will re-
main just so long.
Delay for Hawaii.
The effect upon the Hawaiian treaty,
however, is going to be immediate, be-
cause every_Republican vote is neces-
sary'for ratification, and Senator Ma-
son for one, and Senator Chandler for
another, claim that the treaty must
wait for Cuba, and, if they persist, it
looks as though they will carry their
point. The Cuban sympathizers can
cause further delay if they desire and
block any attempt to pass legislation,
or, at least, make this an excuse for
not allowing any bill to come to a vote.
Biglncrease in Spain’s Navy.
Madrid, Feb. 9.-—The Heraldo says
that Spain, by Feb. 20, will have on a
war footing two ironclads, one of 7,-
900 and the other of 7,300 tons; four
cruisers of 7,000 tons, one cruiser ’of 5,-
000 tons, two cruisers of 3,000 tons,
three cruisers of 1,200 tons, five tor-
pedo boats and four torpedo—boat de-
rstroyers, not counting the squadron in
Cuban waters. The paper adds that
the Transatlantic Company is obliged
to place its fleet at the disposal of the
Government in case of war.
THE L. A. W. CONTEST.
Potter’s Forces Are Confident That He
Will Receive 217 Votes.
St. Louis, Mo., Feb. 9.—From present
indications Isaac B. Potter will be
elected the President of the League of
American Wheelmen to succeed him-
self. The Potter headquarters have
given the following information:
_“Three hundred and forty votes of
the 377 will be cast at this assembly.
One-half of this number, or 170, are
needed to elect. Two hundred and sev-
enteen of these will be cast for Isaac
B. Potter.
“The solid vote of New York, 70votes,
heads the list, to which number 40 of
of the 63 of Pensylvania votes is added.
Wisconsin 9 votes, New Jersey 20, and
8 votes from Michigan are added, the
others being scattered. Connecticut,
with 8 votes, will break the solid vot-
[ng of New England claimed by the El-
liott party, and Maryland is counted
upon now that the split in that State
has been averted. Maryland yields 7
votes.
“Other votes are as follows: Arkan-
sas, 1; Colorado, 4; Delaware, 3; Indi-
ana. 6: Iowa, 5; Kansas, 3; Minnesota.
4; Missouri, 2; Nebraska, 4; California,
4; Ohio, 2; South Dakota, 1; Tennessee,

umbia, 5, with 6 of the ex-olficio
votes.”

THE Elvin CRISIS I WHEELIIEN OFAMIIIICI
England to Reply to Assailants
of Its Chinese Policy.
NO BACKDOWN PROBABLE
Great Britain Has Never Demanded Thai
Ta-Lien-Wan Be Made a Treaty Port--
The Object Was to Checkmate Russian
Movement.
London, Feb. 7.—It is probable that
but little further reliable information
regarding China will be obtainable un-
til 'the Ministers have a chance . tc
round on their assailants during the
course of the debate in Parliament on
the address in reply to the speech from
the throne. But the explicit statement
of the situation furnished to the As-
sociated Press on Thursday last is-suf-
ficient insight into the actual facts,
and shows the press has wasted a con-
siderable amount of hysterical alarm,
which, curiously enough, is more prev-
alent among the Government support-
ers than among the opposition papers.
After all the pertubation will not have
been wasted if it serves to convince the
Government of the terrible earnestness
of the country over the matter and how
it will resent any weakness or bungling.
It must be remembered that the
whole Ta-Lien—Wan story never receiv-
ed a shadow of ofiicial sanction. As ca-
bled on Thursday last Great Britain
has never demanded that Ta-Lien-
Wan be made a treaty port. It was
merely one of the suggested constitu-
ents of the bargain, and if it should be
withdrawn It can only be because it is
a. barrier to the negotiations for the
loan. The object of the condition was
to nheckmate any scheme for the trans-
formation of Port Arthur into a. closed
Russian port, and the object was equal-
ly secured by exacting from China and
Russia together a pledge in regard to
Port Arthur, similar to the pledge ex-r
acted from them in regard to Corea,
before the evacuation of Port Hamil-
ton, and this will probably be the up-
shot. '
The semi-ofiicial statements dis-
tinctly point therto, notably the spe-
cific assurance early in the week in re-
gard to the temporary nature of the
Russian tenure of Port Arthur, which
was accompanied by the friendly as-
surance that Great Britain is not
bound to Japan by any warlike alli-
ance. In short, there is every reason
to believe that Great Britain does not
intend to recede an inch from the po-
sition which has been officially .taken
up by Messrs. Balfour, Chamberlain
and Hicks-Beach, in the Marquis of
Salisbury’s name.
During the course of an interesting
address at Bradford before the Chamber
of Commerce of that place, on Thurs-
day last, the United States Consul, Mr.
Erastus S. Day. applauded the Marquis
of Salisbury’s doctrine of free trade in
China. He said America had every
sympathy with it, and that the people
of Great Britain and the United States
ought to lead in shaping the world’s
thought and action. Continuing, he
said they had the opportunity to
achieve great things would they unite
to achieve lasting benefits to them—
selves and to the world. -
England May Lose the Loan.
London, Feb. 7.—The Vienna corre-
spdndent of the Daily Chronicle says a
telegram received there from St. Pe-'
tersburg asserts that Russia and Ger-
many have signed a contract for the
issuance of a Chinese loan.
The Daily Chronicle says this morn-
ing that it believes that the recent
speech of the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer, Sir Michael Micks-Zeach at
Swansea, when he said the Government
was determined, even at the cost of
war, that the door. of Chinese com-
merce should not be shut to Great
Britain, greatly offended Russia.
Wrong Report Cost 827,000.
W'arrensburg, Mo., Feb. 7.—The case
of Minter Brothers against Bradstreet's
Commercial Agency went to a jury
here Saturday afternoon, and a verdict
was handed down that night, giving to
the plaintiffs judgment for $27,000. In
1890 Bradstreet’s reporter at Sedalia re»
ported to the agency that Minter
Brothers were insolvent. A business
alleged that it was due to an unjust
rating. Suit was brought against Brad-
street’s for $100,000 damages. A judg-
ment for $30,000 was found. The award
was set aside by the Supreme Court
and the case remanded. Saturday’s.

\Vintcr Resort in South Carolina Burned.
Aiken, S. 0., Feb. 7.——The New High-
land Park Hotel was burned to the
ground by fire yesterday morning. All
the hotel furniture was burned, besides
clothing and jewelry belonging to
guests worth $20,000. The fire started
in the hotel laundry about 6 o’clock.
and by 10.30 the hotel was destroyed.
The heaviest loser is the proprietor,
Harry W. Priest, whose loss is estimat-
ed at $50,000. The building'cost $500,-
000, and was partly insured. At the
time'of the fire the hotel contained 175
guests, and many more Were expected
in the week. All of the guests were
gotten out safely, and much of their
property was saved.
Actor Hearne in ‘the Pulpit.
Chiacgo, Feb. 7.—-James A. Hearne
stopped from the stage to the pulpit
yesterday to deliver a eulogy of Henry
George, who was his personal friend, in
the Church of the Redeemer. Every
seat was filled, while the actor made
an attack on the private ownership of
land, and enunciated doetrines that
seemed strangely out of keeping with
his fashionable audience. After speak-
ing of his personal association with Mr.
George and the heroism of his life and
death, the speaker devoted himself to
the principles of the Single Tax advo-
cate. .

:he last moment, George D. Gideon,
the popular chairman of the racing
Joard, will consent to oppose President
Potter, and in that case there will be
I. bitter struggle, and the result cannot
)e easily predicted.
But there are momentous questions
TOlIliIlg‘ up for consideration by the
:onvention, and the amendments to the
:onstitution may make very material
:hanges in the manner of runnning and
aontrolling race meets. Among those
imposed for adoption is one~providing
"or race meets on Sunday. At present
the constitution prohibits this, but the
aew clause to be submitted for adop-
tion reads as follows: “The racing
)oard shall grant sanctions for race
neetings to be held on Sunday, subject
.0 the other restrictions of this article,
ml); in such divisions in which the
Board of Officers of the division shall

nterest to cyclers. President Potter
n his report says that within the last
rear several States have passed laws
n substance like New York’s Arm-
strong bicycle baggage law, and to-day
nore than 68,000 miles of American
~ailroads are following the rule of
:reating bicycles as ordinary personal
Jaggage, and are finding the practice
:0 be a profitable one.
On another matter of interest Presi-
lent Potter says: “The abuses carried
an by many roadhouse groggeries and
:hird-rate hotels, which have fraudu-
ently displayed L. A. W. signs, and of
which mention was made in my semi-
mnual report in June last, have been
:0 some extent continued. It is idle to
Lttempt by official letter or by the
arotest of a local consul to suppress the
vork of these petty swindlers, and I
aim persuaded that a more effectual
neans should be attempted. I recom-
mend that we ask the Legislature at
Albany to pass‘a law making it a mis-
lemeanor for any person to unlawfully
me the official emblem or initial letters
of the L. A. W. in such manner as to
leceive traveling Wheelmen and others
nto the belief that the business hotel
9r establishment of such person is or
ias been in any manner officially rec-
)gnized or licensed or appointed by the
)fficers of our organization."
In his annual report to be submitted
)efore the convention President Potter
takes a hopeful view of the power of
vheelmen in obtaining good roads. “In
Salifornia,” he reports, “the creation of
l. Highway Improvement Commission
9y the State law has stimulated in a
wonderful way the movement for bet-
:er roads. In Massachusetts the en-
arged appropriation for highway pur-
aoses has given added stimulus to the
work of the State Commission. In
Rhode Island the widest interest, has
been manifested in the progress of the
new movement.” ,

Compromise Suggested ' Between the
United States and Canada.
Washington, Feb. 7.--The attention of
the Senate Committee on Public Lands
has been called to the proposition of a
Canadian corporation to build an all—
rail route to the Klondike country, and
it is said the Canadian Government
proposes to give this company 4,500,000
acres of land and to prevent any other
corporation from building to the Klon-
dike over Canadian soil. The commit-
tee has been informed that a great deal
of opposition has developed to this
proposition in Canada, and it has been
suggested that Congress at once take
such action as will bring about amica-
ble relations between Canadians and
Americans, so that trade relations may
not be impeded and so that traffic may
be diverted to proposed American lines.
The committee was informed that a
bill to meet these desires was being
prepared in the Treasury Department,
but the opinion was expressed that it
could not be made a part of the bill
now under consideration.
’ Troops Needed in Alaska.
Washington, Feb. 7.—-In calling the
attention of Congress to the necessity
of establishing additional military posts
in Alaska, Mr. Meikeljohn, the Assist-
ant Secretary of War, says: “Informa-
tion received at the departments from
various sources indicates the neces-
‘sity for legislation to provide effective
means for controlling the disorderly
element among the large number of
"people now in and flocking to the Ter-
ritory of Alaska, and for preventing
persons who are without an adequate
supply of food and clothing from enter-
ing the Territory to perish during the
severe W'inters, unless relieved by the
Government." __ ’
Trouble Over Relief Supplies.
Butte, Mont, Feb. 7.-——Information
comes from Lethbridge, on the Cana-
dian boundary, that orders have been
received from the Dominion Govern-
ment that every man of the mounted
police must hold himself in readiness
notice. The orders are said to be due
to the existence of serious trouble be—
tween the Canadian and United States
authorities in Alaska relative to al-
leged attempts by Americans to get
provisions into the Yukon free of duty,
ostensibly for the relief of the dis—
tressed, but in reality for sale to the
highest bidders.
