Europe Surprised.

Berlin, March 3The intentions OF
the American government towards the
rebellion in Cura awakens profound in
terest and widespread discussion here.
The questions involved are not regard
ed by any means as being confined In
their effects to Spain and the United
States. The Cuban resolutions are
coupled with President Cleyeland's
Venezuelan message in the public mind
and there seems to be deep seated
conviction i'll Europe that these incl
dents mark a determination on the
part OF the United States government
to depart from its time-honored course
of non-interyention in European af-
fairs. Az the foreign office IL was said
grave fears are entertained that seri-
Gus international complications will be
the outcome of the attitude OF the
United States toward Cuba. 1t may be
said In general way that everywhere
establishment is expressed at the turn
taken by the American policy.

A Cold and Chilly Crowd That Gathered
at Hazards Pavilion.

By actual count there wece 1884 people
at Hazards pavilion last evening to
listen to speeches in behalf of Hanna,
Hanna methods and Hanna candidates.
The crowd was chilly and the orators
were "chillier" The scattering OF peo-
pie collected there was lost in the vast
hall. The speakers were lonesome ana
the meeting was a fiat failure.
1t is simply impossible to get any en-
thusiasm among the people for llama
and the gold standard in this city. AS
soon as employees get out from under the
wings of their employers they put on Sill
yer badges and shout for Bryan.
Contrast the pavilion meeting with the
one held at the wigwam last night Here
1900 people gathered to hear the familiar
arguments for silver coinage by local
speakers. They were wildly enthus1as-
tic and were loud in their cheers for
BRYAN and Barlow. They staid until
long after 10 o'clock and the throng only
left then reluctantly.
The silver rally at the wigwam yester-
day afternoon under the auspices OF the
Bryan Central Silver club and the Wo-
mans Bryan club was grand success:
1t is an additional proof OF the great
earnestness and patriotism OF the mass
.es. The speeches were all good ana well
received. Mrs. Lottie D. Willard read
again her paper on silver. Several hum
dred school children, led by Mr.. Salyer,
sang three patriotic songs, each waving
a small flag, the effect of which was
patriotiSm perSOnif1ed.
