THE FLAG OF FREE CUBA.

been committed in Cuba. The time had
come for the American congress to act.
Mr.. Adams (Rep., Pa), the member
of the foreign affairs committee who
drew the resolutions, made an eloquent
appeal in behalf of the struggling
Cubans. The spirit of liberty which
we had invoked in 1776, he said, was
not bounded by the metes of conti-
nents nor the vast ocean itself. He
referred with pride to the fact that
he, while minister to Brazil, had re-
ceived instructions from Mr. Blaine,
then secretary of state, to open diplo-
matte relations with the provisional
government of Brazil, when Dom Pedro
was dethroned "Now, sir shall we hes
itate when this other child of free
dom calls upon us to grant it recog-
milton in its struggle for liberty? Shall
the people of the United States hesi-
tate? 1 hope and pray that the Great
Ruler who guides the destinies of men
and controls the fate of nations will
plant in the hearts of our rulers today
the same spirit that dwelt in that of
James G. Blaine" (Applause.)
Mr.. Sulzer Oem., N. ", who was
given three minutes, spoke in favor of
the resolution.
MR.. TURNER OPPOSES.
Mr.. Turner Oem., Ga) made the
principal speech in opposition to the
adoption Of the resolutions. He ex-
pressed at the outset surprise that the
committee had furnished no informa-
ton on which to base question of
so much gravity. The correspondence
sent to congress by the state depart
ment be termed "a dreary record Of
mutilated incendiarism." The prece-
| dents cited, he said, were extremely
unfortunate when recognition was
accorded to the Southern states" said
he, "the people of the South had pos
session Of every port from the mouth
OF the Potomac to the Rio Grande. and
had an army against which the COM
bined legions of Caesar and the pha-
lanxes Of Alexander would have been
utterly unavailing. (Applause.) don't

mitted in this as in other wars, such
as occur between men in gallant and

EXCITEMENT GROWING.
Attitude of Spanish People and Press
More Violent


LONDON, March S.e-A Madrid dispatch to
the Standard says: The students of the uni
versity showed turbulent disposition all day,
notably when they learned that police precau-
tions had been taken. The energetic interven-
tion of the rector and of the professors pa,
Gifted them. The students of Granada, Valen-
cia and Barcelona displayed a similar agi-
tation, which was everywhere suppressed. Ar
rests were also made of street disturbers.
Unfortunately the Republicans everywhere
are trying to make capital out of the popular
agitation, which has increased on the news
of the release of the Bermuda ilibusters The
press is changing its attitude of conciiation,
and the Liberal papers advocate an under
standing with the European powers to protect
their common colonial interests against the
United States. The authorities continue to
take extraordinary precautions around the
American legation.
The governors of several Of the provinces
replying to orders to suppress demonstra-
tions, have telegraphed to the government
that, in face of the excitement among all
classes, 1T is inadvisable to stop them. The
fall on the bourse was especially heavy in
Bank Of Spain shares and Cuban bonds.''
The Standard also has a dispatch from
Paris, which says: 1T is the general belief
here that the resolutions of the senate will
lead to no practical result save that Of in
creasing the appreciation of the wise pro-
vision of the United States constitution
which makes the president, and not con-
81 ceo, lHc dIuileI OLr peace Or war. DlplO-
matists remark that hot wave has been
passing over Washington, to the disturbance
OF the belief in peaces and with marked
derogation from the imputation of United
States craftsmanship for calm dignity and
shrewdness. The view of the European
chancellors Is that the United States gov
ernment has no more right to interfere be-
tween the Spanish authorities and the in
surgents than they would have to interfere
in the suppression of an insurrection in
Jamaica by England, or of rising in the
Cayenne and Martinique by France

olutions reported by the house for
eign affairs committee for recognizing
Cuban belligerency. The resolutions
are as follows:
Resolved, By the house of representatives
(the senate concurring), that in the opinion
Of congress a state of public war exists in
Cuba, the parties to which entitled to
belligerent rights, and the United States
should observe a strict neutrality between
the belligerents.
Resolved That congress deplores the de-
struction of life and property caused by the
war now waging in the island, and believing
that the only permanent solution Of the con-
test equally in the interest of Spain, the peo-
pie of Cuba and other nations, would be in
the establishment of government by the
people of Cuba, it is the sense of congress
that the government Of the United States
should use its good Offices and friendly in
f1uence to that end.
Resolved, That the United States has not
interviewed in struggles between any Euro
pean governments and their colonies on this
continent but from the very close relations
between the people Of the United States and
those of Cuba, in consequence of its prox-
unity, and the extent of the commerce be-
tween the two peoples, the present war is
entailing such losses upon the people of the
United States that congress is of opinion
that the government of the United States
should be prepared to protect the legitimate
interests of Americans by intervention, if
necessary.
CudlIIIldu IllII, III liiCNih6 III tiiO
passage of the resolutions, said:
"The resolutions have been considered with
great care by the foreign affairs committee.
In many meetings through several months
the question has been discussed. They have
been ripened and matured after consultation
with the most eminent jurists. In the inter-
est of right of peace of our own country,
and in the interest of those who are making
a struggle with which we sympathiZe we
believe those resolutions present the most
nractical, conservative and effective mode of
action. They propose, first, that congress
shall express it's opinion that
STATE OF WAR EXISTS
in the island of Cuba, and that we recognize
it. Second that the conditions prevailing on
that island which have involved such great
and deplorable losses will find permanent
solution only in the establishment of gov
ernment by the free choice of the people
of Cuba and that our government should
use it's friendly influence to that end. This
in the interest of the people of Spain, of
Cuba, and of all other nations And, third,
in view of the vast interests OF our people
in the island of Cuba, Sc close neighbor;
in view of the immense commerce that is
being destroyed and the prodigious invest
ments of American citizens there being
consumed, that our government, while 1t has
never entered into any connection between
European powers and their colonies in any
of the struggles which have taken place be-
tween them, should be prepared to- protect
the interests of our American citizens by in
resolutions ought not to cause any trouble

WASHINGTON, March CUBA libre
had field day in the house. Despite
the war talk from Spain the strug-
Cling patriots in Cuba were eulogized
and sympathized with in a two hours
debate, and the rules were then sus-
pended and the resolutions by the
house foreign affairs committee were
adopted as substitute for those of the
senate by an overwhelming majority
263 to II. An analysis of the vote
shows that 1873 Republicans, 20 Demo-
Gratis and Populists voted for the
resolutions, and 8 Republicans and
Democrats against them. The debate
which preceded their adoption was an
imated and breathed a spirit Of lib
erty. AT times, it was exceedingly dra-
matte, especially when forebodings of
war were uttered, but there was no
stemming the strong tide. The set
ting Of the scene was brilliant. The
galleries were black with people, at
tractetd by the prospect of the stir
ring event. In the reserved gallery
were many prominent perSonages
Even the diplomatic gallery, which is
usually empty, was thronged with the
representatives of foreign countries
On the floor, the attendance was the
largest Of the session. A number of
senators came over from the other end
of the capitol to watch the proceed
ings. The enthusiasm was great and
the opponents of the resolution cut
but sorry figure when they attempted
a counter demonstration. Owing to
the brief time allotted for debate, mem
bers were fortunate in securing two
or three minutes to present their views
The bill to authorize the construc-
ton of a bridge across the Mississippi
river at Aitken, Mimi, was passed.
The senate joint resolution directing
the secretary Of agriculture to pur-
chase and distribute seeds authorized
by the current law, was adopted.

WANTS TO AVOID A CONFLICT.
Brazil Desires No Trouble in the
Trinidad Affair.

NEW YORK, March 2.-The Brazil
ian government has issued an impor-
tant official gazette to the effect that
it can't interfere in the present discus
sion of the questions now at issue be-
tween Brazil, France and England.
The gazette declares that the public
must exercise it's best tact and judg-
ment. The government has abstained,
1T says, from sending a warship to
Trinidad, despite the request of con-
gress that information be obtained as
to the British occupation of the island,
for the reason that, above all things, it
desires to avoid a conflict.

py American policy.
PRESS COMMENT.
The press is only just beginning to
comment upon the subject and OBJ
viously does not feel very we'll informed
upon 1t, regarding it as a new SUBJ
ject.
The Frankfertsr zeitung editorially
discred1ts it's own dispatch from New
York alleging that secret negotiations
are in progress between France and
Spain looking to allied opposition to
intervention by the United States in
Cuba. France is too much engaged
with her own affairs the Frank
furter Zeitung thinks, ito go out of her
way to the support of SPAIN"
The Vossische Zeitung, of this city,
maintains a neutral tone In it's COM
mentss, but says: Naturally the pro-
vocationS offered by the United States
have been keenly felt in SPAIN" This
journal also expresses the hope that
President Cleveland will succeed in
calming the excitement on the Cuban
question in congress and in the nation.
1t hints that Spain might be willing
to sell or cede Cuba to another power
to be rid Of the embarrassment it
causes her.
The National Zeitung utters a warn
ing to it's readers against undervalue-
ing the meaning of the latest manifes-
tations by the United States, although
it does not mean a decisive plan Of
action on the part of the United States
government. President Cleveland will
doubtless be able to stem the popular
expressions of provocations to Spain"
the National Zeitung continues, but
he will probably be unable to prevent
the house of representatives from sup
porting the resolutions" 1t con-
cludes that the Spaniards decidedly
will not chime with the expectations
of the United States.
