MADRID, March S.-The Heraldo, In
an article protesting against supposed
scheme of the United States government
to annex the island of Cuba, says Mr..
Blaine ought to recollect that the con-
gress of American nations plainly
proved that Spanish-Americans are not
disposed to allow themselves to be alb
sorbed by the great northern republic.
The people of Cuba, it says,are strongly
Spanish, and are equally opposed to be-
coming part of the United States.
Probably, with the exception of few
tradesmen, there is no one in the island
who is desirouS of annexation. Spain,
the HeraldO continues, would shed her
last drop of blood in resisting any at
tempt to deprive her of her COLONY.

st. Paul was given another thick coat
of the "beautifuf' yesterday. The
storm, which began early in the morn
ing, continued throughout the day, and,
in consequence, nearly everybody
hugged his fireside. The snowfall in
the city was probably the heaviest of
the winter. but out of town the storm
was more serious. Passenger trains on
the railroads running into the city were
but little delayed. The Northern
Pacific and Great Northern roads
were annoyed a little by the
snow in the state of Minnesota, but
west OF Grand Forks and Fargo their
tracks were clear. About a foot OF
snow covered the Eastern and Northern
divisions of the Omaha, but caused
very little delay in traffic. The lines
between st. Paul and Chicago caught
great deal of snow, but not enough to
cause trains to be abandoned. None OF
the roads made use of snoWplOwS.
In the city the electric cars were kept
in motion most all day, but there were
a number of short stops on the various
lines. The Grand avenue line was
blocked Ior several hours during the
afternoon, and the lnterurban trains
We're considerably delayeu.
Lyons Bulletin.
Observer Lyons issued the following
bulletin at O'clock last night:
The storm that moved hither from the
southeast to-day is central over Lake
Michigan. Snow has been general, and
the fall for the last twelve hours has
averaged from one to eight inches over
the upper Mississippi valley and the
greater portion of Lakes Superior and
Michigan, where it is still showing at
this writing. The maximum fall is re-
ported from La Crosse and Duluth, and
occasional light snow has fallen over
North Dakota and Montana. The area
OF high barometer and cold wave over
lies that portion of the British pos
sessions, north of North Dakota.
However the lowest temperature re-
ported from there is only 2 deg below
zero. The order to hoist cold wave sig
nal, because the temperature will fall
to about zero by a. III. March g." sent
out from Washington yesterday, will no
doubt be verified, but the cold spell
will evidently be of short duration, as
an area II low barometer has appeared
over Montana. and that is the basis for
the prediction. The slorm will move
eastward over the Lake region Monday,
and clearing to fair and colder weather
will result for st. Paul and vicinity.

CONFIDENCE IN PARNELL
Expressed at the Open Air Meet
ing at Newry.


DUBLIN, March S.-Parnell's journey
to Newry to-day was attended with pop
ular acclamation everywhere except
at Dundalk, where an unfriendly
demonstration prevented him from
addressing the people. At other
places he made short speeches,
and at Newry he was cordially received.
He said that be was confident that
Ulster was sound for him, as other
provinces of Ireland were. and he re-
ferred to the significance of deputations
being present from districts where ever
dastardly means had been employed
to stifie public opinion. He severely
criticised Mccarthy for having ira
duced the memory of John Mitchell, the
Irish patriot of As, in his history. Num-
erouS league addresses were presented
and an open air meeting which followed
passed resolutions strongly expressing
confidence in Parnell. Mr.. Parnell re-
minded his hearers that the liberals
had been as active coercionists as the
ether party.
LONDON, March S.-This has been a
great day in Ireland. Parnellites and
anti-Parnellites have held numerous
meetings attended with broken heads
and other symptoms. Parnell's meet
ing at Newry was a grand affair in point
of number and enthusiasm. Notwith-
standing the virtual prohibition of the
bishop from attendance at the demon

of Parnell by the clergy, not less than
5000 persons present from town and the
country roundabout. The Mccarthy
ties, with the aid of the priests, tried to
hold counter demonstration, but 1T
amounted to very little. Mr.. Parnell
bitterly denounced the interference of
the clergy. and spoke hopefully of Ire
lands prospects of genuine heme rule.
He asserted that lrishmen must depend
upon themselves and not on England for
+ bringing about the accomplishment of
national government for Ireland. His
utterances were loudly cheered. A Nc
Carthyite in the rear of the crowd, who
shouted out something derogatory to
Parnell and waved copy of the bishops
paper, was Immediately attacked. He

Fresh Blood Wanted.

LONDON, March s.-The reported en-
gagement of the Duke of Clarence, heir
presumptive to the British crown, and
Princess Margarite, OF Prussia. has
called out hostile criticism among peo-
pie who think that the old royal families
need little new blood instead of per-
petually intermarryIng with each other.
Rev. Hugh Price, the well-known non.

the utterance of some strong opinion on
the subject. The duke and princess
are both grandchildren of Queen Vic

Specials to the Globe.
STILLW ATER, March S.-The heaviest
snow storm of the season set in early
this morning and continued throughout
the day. The eastern passenger train
on the Omaha read was delayed several
hours, and other trains reached this city
behind time. An attempt was made to
start the electric street cars in the morn
ing, put it was useless task and they
were taken back to the power house.
About eight inches of snow has already
fallen, and the storm bids fair to con-
tinue all night.

be the worst night of the winter.
Should it continue as now indicated, it
will be impossible for trains to move to-
morrow.

Eugene in Poor Health.

LONDON, March s.-The ex-Empress
Eugene is reported to be in very bad
condition physically, and little more
than wreck mentally. There is no
allegation of insanity, but her un-
friendly reception in Paris, when she
was first mistaken for the Empress Fred
erick, and afterWard insulted as soon as
her identity became known, was great
shock to her. She has lost all traces of
her former attractions, and has ceased
even to cover the ravages of time with
cosmetics. To the better class of
Frenchmen she is an object of pity, if
not of sympathy, but the mob seldom
loses all opportunity to show its
hatred.
