lawful property Of the insurrectionary colony OF
Venezuela The Junta applies this theory to the
situation IN Cuba, aud argues that on the prn
cipal the United States must recognize the Cuban
republic as State at peace with the United States
and prevent Spain from carr ying on any operations
against Cuba from America ports. The Cubans also
place great reliance upon the action OF Congress-
now about to assemble, and are highly gratfed and
encouraged by the numerous petitions being signed
by the American people praying for the recognition
Of Cuba by the United States. In addition to the
memorials which have been signed by thousands In
New York. Boston, Philadelphia and other cities
throughout the country, monster petition has just
been started by the ladies Of Baltimore to be signed
only BY ladies'. Four thousand signatures have
already been obtained In that city alone, and 1t Is
intended to circulate the petition throughout the
State, and finally to present it through delegation
TO visit washington for that purpose. The members
OF the Junta state II they can do no more than
secure the detention Of the gunboats until Congress
meets they will be content, as they feel assured that
among the nrst acts OF Congress Will be the formal
recognition Of Cuba.
