MUNITIONS FOR CUBA.
The Three Friends and the Com
mOdOrc Handle Them.

New York, Dec. IA Herald special
from Jacksonville. Fla, says:
Acting upon the opinion of the at
torney-generaI of the United States re-
garding the shipment of arms to Cuba
the owners OF the steamer Three
Friends started an expedition last
night, which they hope Will reach Cuba
within three days. The steamer Com
modore was used to transport the
arms. ammunition and fuel &c the
Three Friends, which was outside the
bar at the mouth of the st. John S
river. Ninety-fiVe Cubans arrived here
yesterday from Tampa. and joined
about 300 others who have been here
for several days. They were under or
ders of Colonel Emilio Nunez, the dele
gate of the Cuban junta.
The Commodore went to the railroad
wharf in the afternoon and as soon
as it was dark the work of trans
forming the munitions from the cars to
the boat was begun. The cargo con-
sisted of about ! 600 rifles. 100000 cart
ridges. two melinite guns and a guam
tity of medicines and hospital stores.
at $50 o'clock and the men climbed
up on the vessel as the lines were cast
off. The Commodore steamed down the
river and transferred the cargo to the
Three Friends after getting outside the
three-league limit. This was done to
avoid any violation of the neutrality
laws. The Three Friends is CON-
manded by Captain w. T. Lewis.

of Maceo, the papers treat the matter
as a false report, spread by the Cuban
junta TO try and aid their cause by
making Spain odious. They say the
Marquis Ahumada is a noble gentle
man, who would scorn TO do any such
act, and they deny that Maceo had any
invitation to meet him. Rather they
say, Maceo was feeling the effects OF
Weyler's resistless onward march and
deserted his so-called army and went
to his death. They still declare Maceo
was killed in a fair fight. and that
Major Cirujeda gained a signal victory
with an inferior force. Denunciations
of Americans appear in all the edito-
rails, the language in some being very
bitter.
Trouble has been impending between
the Cubans and Spanish residents here
all day. and several times collisions
We're narrowly avoided. The Cubans
here are loud in their threats against
the Spanish government and mass
meetings will be held to protest to the
American people and to ask that the
American congress investigate the
murder Of Maceo and if the truth as
certained be as published to demand
that the belligerency of the Cubans be
recognized.

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE reported
assassination of the Cuban general,
Antonio Maceo, while under a flag of
truce. was the text of a resolution Of
fered today in the senate by Mr.. Call
(Dem., Fla) and referred to the COM
mittee on foreign relations. The reso-
luton characterizes the affair as q
violation of the rules of civilized war
fare, and as a cowardly act of treach-
cry. 1t declares the government which
authorized and permitted it. or failed
TO punish the assassins, IAN outcast
from the family of nations and from
the pale of civilization and public
law
The committee on foreign relations
is instructed to inquire into the facts
and to report to the senate at an early
day. Another resolution of Mr.. Calls,
which was similarly referred, requests
demand the release of all United States
citizens held by the Spanish govern
ment as prisoners in Cuba.
Another blast was also given against
Turkey in the shape of resolutions
passed by a church congregation in
New Hampshire, presented and ap-
proved by Senator Gallinger of that
state. declaring that Armenian out
RACES should be suppressed by the
civilized powers, even at the cost OF
the ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the Turkish en-
Dire.
A resolution was offered by Mr.
PETER pop, Kan.) and laid on the
table for the present, for the appoint
ment of a commission of five Zone from
each of the four parties-Republican
Democratic. National Democratic. and
Populist-and one other to be chosen
by the four) to examine and study the
general subject of finance in reference
to its practical relations to business.
A resolution offered last week by Mr.
Allen pop. Neb). denying the consti-
tutional power of any state to impair
the obligation of contracts, was taken
up and made the basis of a speech by
him, in which he defended the Populist
governor and legislature of Nebraska
from all imputations of an intention to
enact legislation hostile to capital, and
declared that all such fears were
groundless. He especially disclaimed
all purpose to act in hostility to rail-
road companies. In the course of his
speech he criticised severely a charge
made by Senator Hoar of Massachu-
sets in a recent speech in Boston as to
the state of Nebraska having been
(voting for Bryan and free silver)
engaged in a crazy attempt at revo-
luton and a passionate crusade of
dishonor."
Such a statement, Mr.. Allen declared,
was unwarranted, dishonest and un-
gracious.
Mr.. Hoar explained and justified his
language and applied to the resolution
the term ''puerile and trifling."
Mr.. Plat (Rep., Comm also sneered
at it as ''claptrap. 1t was referred to
the judiciary committee.
The immigration bill was taken up
and went over under an agreement
that a vote shall be taken on it's pas
sage at p. m. on Thursday
The resolution of the house for the
holiday recession was referred to the
committee on appropriations.
The senate then took up and passed
all the pension bills on the calendar
(55), and at $50 adjourned until to-
morrow

WELLER HONoRED.
VIII Have His Portrait Painted and
a street Named After Him.

Havana, Dec. IA complete calm
prevails here today. following the noisy
demonstrations made upon the receipt
of the news of the death of Maceo. and
upon the arrival of Captain General
Weyler from the province of Pinar del
Rio. The news that has been published
is devoid of interest, and the newspa
pers devote so much of their space to
flowery descriptions of the demonstra-
lions made last night by the volunteers
of Havana in honor of General Wey-
Ter. The municipal council has decided
TO place a portrait of General Weyler
in the chameber of the council and as
a further honor vii change the name of
the Calico Bispo or some other princi-
pal street of the city TO that of Weyler
1t is said the captain general will
shortly give decision on the proposal
of the defense committee to allow the
planting and grinding of sugar cane
ia certain provinces.
