dispatches from the United States
are increasing the feeling of indigna-

it became known the United States
senate favored recognition OF the
Cuban insurgents as belligerents. The
newspapers here confirm the report

officers and marines are to be attach

and energies for an opportune mo-

compare the recognition of the seces-

as noble and honest friend. Can NE
