Ward counsel for the Cubans in their trial here Adjutant- General Hart of the state militia; Rev. Merritt Hulhert; Gonzales Dequeseda, president of the Cuban guntai M. Fidsl Pierra; pr. J. w. Guiteras. The opera house was profusely decorated with flags and bunting and enthusiasm and una- nimity characterized the proceedings.
 The following resolutions were adopt ed:
 Whereas, As free citizens of the state of Delaware we are in mass meeting as- sembled for the purpose of voicing our sympathy with the struggle of the people, of the island of Cuba for independence and self government.
 Whereas, As the history of the present and all former revolts of Cuba in the rule of Spain shows that the attempts of the Spanish government to retain its dominion of that island are marked by such cruelties and inhumanities as are not by the laws of nations permitted or practiced in civil warfare; now therefore be 1t
 Resolved, That we extend to the Gu bans now in revolt our full and sincere sympathy with their present contest for political freedom; that as free citizens of a free country in exercise of our right of petition and in the name of humanity we respectfully ask our national govern ment as soon as it is consistent with in- ternal obligations to recognize the Cu- ban revolutionists as belligerents to the end that a recognized status of belliger- ency may appeal to the common judg- ment of the civilized world for mitiga- ton of the merciless character of the warfare waged against them.
