CUBAN

The United States Senate Adopt, Almost
Unanimously, Resolutions FavOring the
Recognition of Cuban BeIlIgerency, with
an in Favor of Recognition
of the Independence OF the Island.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 2S.-By a vote Of
81 to q the senate of the United States
put on record to-day its views and
policy in relation to the existing revo-
luton in Cuba. Up to the hour of
four o'clock the debate went on, the
senators vieing with each other in
praise of the Cuban patriots and in de-
nuuciatiOn of Capt.-Gen. Weyler; Sem
atOr Sherman characterizing him
rather as a demon than as Il general.
The cruelties of Pizarro and Cortez in
Mexico and Peru, and of the duke of
Alba in the Netherlands, were over
looked, and there ran through the de-
bate a hardly concealed contempt for
the power of Spain. The debate closed
at foul o'clock, and then the voting
began. Various amendments were
voted down or laid on the table by
large majorities, and finally the vote
came on the resolution of the commit
lCC On -OICiSh ICldllOIS, do dluCliOIu
by the addition to it of Senator Cam
eron's resolution for the recognition
of Cuban independence.
The terms of the concurrent reSolu-
tion are that, in the opinion of con
gress, a condition of wal exists be-
tween the government of Spain and
the government proclaimed and main
tanned by force of arms by the people
of Cuba; that the United States should
maintain a strict neutrality between
the contending powers, according to
each of them all the rights of bclliger-
ents in the ports and territory of the
United States. and that the friendly
offices Of the United States should be
offered by the president to the Span
ish government for the recognition of
the independence of Cuba.
The six senators who voted against
the resolution were Gallery dem, La,
Chiffon dem, Tex, George dem,
Miss.), Hale rep, Me-, Morrill, rep,
Vt and Wctmore rep, r. L..
When the vote on the resolution was
announced there was a great demon
stration in the galleries.

PRESIDENT AND CABINET
Said to be Not in Favor Of According Bel.
IiSerent Rights to the Cu5ans at Pres

WASHINGTON, Feb. ga regular
meeting of the cabinet vas held. 1t is
understood in official circles that the
resolution with regard to Cuban recOg-
milton before the senate and the house
were considered with much serious
ress. II is also the understanding
among the higher officials that
the administration is not in favor
Of the recognition of Cuban
beiligerency at this time. 1t may be
said that this is an open secret. The
conservative feeling of the president
and his advisers is said to be the re-
suit. not CT any lack OF sympathy with
the insurgents. but of the knowledge
Of embarraSsmentS that would confront
the United States government if
recognition were accorded. 1t is
also stated that the president and
the members of his cabinet are embar-
raised over the possibility of the
adoption by congress of resolutions On
the Cuban question in 4 form requiring
executive approval. Some prominent
officials, while known to have the
greatest personal sympathy for the in
srrgent cause in Cuba, have shown that
they believe that their formal rec
ognitiOn by congress and the president
at this time would result in conse-
qucnces too serious to be lightly en-.

HIM TO TIME.
An English Breach of Promise Case
Based on IA Curious Document.

Based on IA Curious Document.
Miss Jane Ashton, of Hollingwood,
near Manchester, has discovered an en-
tirely novel use for penny postage
stamps.
Courted by Mr.. Samuel Scholes, a
farmer of that part, and growing
Hcaried of her lovers procrastinating
habits, Miss Ashton determined at last
to bring matters to an issue. She vas
moved thereto by more than n o II
sideration. 1t was not merely the
farmers persistent neglect to name
the wedding day, pleading the cotton
strike, agricultural depression and
other Insufficient excuses; it was the
fact that. after ten years of this sort of
sbilly-shaliying, Mr.. Scholes had be-
gun to ply marked attention to an
other lady. Moreover, Miss Ashton's
dilatory sutton had attained 10 the age
of 60, and Miss Ashton was herself get
ting on that way.
Il will do anything in reason" said
the farmer.
'Thcn let us nave it in writing" said
the lady.
Thereupon Miss Ashton wrote on a
sheet of paper: Will you marry me if
l keep company with you"? and the
farmer, being thus cornered, appended
the words: Il WILL" but added the in
sidious prcviso:" | will iflevermarry."
Naturally, Miss Ashton saw in this
act need for extra caution. She knew
her man, and therefore pulled out Il
penny postage stamp, stuck 1T firmly
on the document, wrote across it the
date. and put it in her pocket. Then it
was that Mr.. SchOles, impressed by
this legal formality. begged %piteously
to have the fatal paper, stamp and all.
handed over to him. lie would give a
sovereign for il, he said, and when the
lady asked him: Are you going to get
married or are yOu nOt?" he wildly
easpcd out the words: whether or
not, l want thee to set me free"
The closing scene of the little drama
was enacted at the Manchester a~ssizes,
where Miss Ashton appeared as the
plaintiff Ill n breach of promise action.
The postage stamp may have lacked
the sovereign virtues that Miss Ashton
had attributed to it; this little object
which had caused Mr.. Scholes' teeth to
chatter with fear may have been u
1nere bugbear, but the jury looked to
the facts of the case and gave the lady
Il :crdict. though with what seems to
be the rather paltry sun of ELS dam.
