pendence-yote stood 64 To @.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 29.-The Senate
yesterday adopted the Cuban res
olution as amended by Mr.. Cameron.
The vote was 81 yeas to nays.
The resolution in full is as follows:
Resolved, by the Senate (the House
of representatives. concurring), That
in the opinion of Congress condition
of public war exists between the
government OF Spain and the gov
eminent proclaimed and for some
time maintained by force of arms
by the people of Cuba: and that the
United States of America should main
tain a strict neutrality between the
contending powers, according to each
all the rights of belligerentS in the
ports and territory of the United
States.
Resolved, That the friendly offices
of the United States shall be offered
by the President to the Spanish gov
eminent for the recognition of the
independence Of Cuba"
The vote on the committee and the
Cameron resolutions resulted-64 yeas
to nays.
The Senators who voted in the neg
ative were: Gallery, Chiffon, George,
Hale, Morrill,, Wetmore.
The result was reached after day
of fervid speeches, which at times
aroused the crowd of spectators to
enthusiastic demonstrations. The
keen public interest on the subject was
evinced by the presence of the largest
crowd since Congress assembled. The
representa- of foreign powers
were numerously in attendance Senior
Dupuy de LONE. the Spanish minister,
was not present, but two of the
attaches of the Spanish legation occu-
pied seats with the other diplomats
The main feature of the debate was
the speech of Senator Sherman, chair
man of the committee on foreign re-
lations. AS rule, the veteran Senator
from Ohio speaks with reserve and
conservatism, SO it was the more sur
prising when he arraigned Spain and
her governor-general, Weyier. in the
most scathiug language.
Other speeches were made by MessrS.

He Jeered and Cursed the Crowd While
They Were Hanging Him.

WICHITA FALLS, Texas, Feb. IS
At $50 last night, a mob of several
thousand persons attacked the jail
here, where Foster era wford and 1.-The
Kid" were confined. After show of
resis tance on the part OF the author

doors and forcibly took possession OF
the prisoners
The two men were taken to the
bank which they attempted to rob

was erected, The first impulse of the
mob was to burn the prisoners, but
caimer counsel prevailed.

word. and those having him in charge
yanked him onto a box. The scene
was a weird one One had on high
heeIed boots. black pans and a deep
red flannel SHIRT, which added a grue-
some brilliancy to the scene. In a
moment the rope was about his neck
and man who, some say, looked like
one of the men whose horse had been
taken, fixed one end across the cross
bar. All this time 1.-The Kid" was
ieering at the audience, laughing and
cursing. He never quivered. He was
asked to say what he wanted, and was
told he would be given hearing.
He said: ''That's all right. If you
are impatient, swing me up now. I
amt afraid to die, not On bit of it.

In an instant he was pulled up
above the throng. He never quivered
or kicked. He just went up in the
air and was left hanging. Men on
the frontier for years and years say
no gamer man ever died. He was the
coolest man in all the great crowd.

valuable information. He placed the

WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
Dun Says Business Is Causing at the
West Rather Than at the East


West Rather Than as the East
New YORK, Feb. 2a-R. g. Dun s
Co.'s weekly review of trade says:
In some quarters business gains at
the West rather than at the East. but
there is 10 general change for the
better, although hopefulness still pre-
dominates. The want of sufficient de-
mand for the products of great indus
tries still retards actual improvement.
Strikes Of some Importance in garment
making and kindred lines affect trade
in Chicago and Baltimore, but there
are fewer labor difficulties than usual.
as existing conditions warn wage
carriers that controversies at this time
are unwise.
Wheat has taken a fight upward,
advancing 5 Il cents for cash. and 5-S
cents for May. with rumors of foreign
supplies as the only basis. Estimates
of wheat in farmers hands are lower
than last year. but still indicate, with
visible stocks. a supply much beyond
probable needs.
