Hard Fight for Dunnell-A Tide That

WASHINGTON, Special Telegram, March 3.
Representative Dunnell of Minnesota dis
likes to see his closing days in congress
marked by the repeal OF the timber culture
bill, and last night made hard fight against
it, and probably by his efforts secured the
postponement Of the vote upon the confer
ence report until tomorrow.
This bill has been greatly changed since it
passed the house, and now it contains Sec
ton repeating the pre- emption law, as well
as the tree claim law. Claimants, however,
fer lands under these laws may perfect title
Mr.. Dunnell maintains that the timber cult
ure law can be made effective and beneficial
If properly amended, but there is no stem
ming the tide in favor of restricting the dis
position of public lands.
The State of Washington has been espe-
cially anxious to have the timber culture
law repealed. Many settlers who have en-
deavored to raise trees on lands in that
state failed. Representative Wilson has
made hard fight for the repeal OF this law
ever since he was in congress. Senator
Allen desired to have proviso added to
the repeal OF the pre-em ption section allow
ing settlers year in which to take advan-
tage OF the proposed repeal to take up
claims. This, he says, would enable in
tending emigrants to new states who have
exhausted their homestead rights to secure
quarter section in new countries, but any
additions to the bill would have defeat
ed it.

WASHINGTON. March 3.-W. E. Curtis, of
the state department, who has charge of the
Latin American department Of the Chicago
exposition, has just returned from visit to
the West Indies in the interest of the expo
sition. In his report Mr.. Curtis announces
the appointment by the captain-general of
Cuba Of board Of thirty commissioners to
represent the island at the exposition, and
to secure collection illustrating its re-
sources, products and industries for exhi-
bition there. This board he says, includes
the most prominent enterprising and influ
entail men in the colony, among others the
mayor Of Havana, the rector Of the uni
versity and the editors of the principal Gu
ban newspapers.
The desire of the people of Cuba" til ,
report says, Especially the sugar and to-
bacco planters and manufacturers, to pro-
mote their commercial relations with the
United States amounts to an anxiety. The
commercial organizations Of the Republic
of San Domingo have raised purse TO pay
the salary and expenses Of an envoy to be
sent by the government to Washington for
the purpose of negotiating a reciprocity
treaty with the United States. A similar
spirit pervades the entire group OF West In
dian colonies and will, l am sure, stimulate
their representation at the exposition"
While in Havana Mr.. Curtis secured for
the historical section of the exposition plas-
ter casts OF the tomb OF Columbus and the
famous statue of Columbus in Chains.

it aristocratic or not. Bismarck ia q,
