mended that the friendly offices Of the
United States should be offered to the
Spanish Government for the recognition
OF the independence OF Cuba"
Mr.. Hit Immediately took the floor IN
support of the recommendation Of the
committee.
Mr.. Hit was interrupted by Mr.. Pat
terson DemocraD, OF Tennessee, who
asked what proportion of the .6000 600 pop
ulation in Cuba had engaged IN the move
ment to secure the independence of, the
island. Mr.. Hitt stated that communi-
cation to the House from the Secretary OF
State showed the number OF troops in
field last August, was 5000, one-third Of
which was well-armed. Since coming
10 the House to-day, Mr.. Hit said he had
been handed a statement by Mr.. Rap
pleye. the correspondent OF the New
York Mail and Express, who has just
returned from Cuba, showing that the
Cuban army now numbered over G0,o0O
men.
CUBA SHOULD BE FREE.
Mr.. Patterson then inquired what num-
Der of Cubans had enlisted in the Spanish
army. which MIR. Hit said he could not
answer with denaitencss.
Mr.. Patterson said he thought
that II the people Of Cuba were in
substantial unanimty in the desire for
autonomy and independence, they ought
TO have Il. and that Spain should not be
permitted 10 hold the territory Of such
people by subjugation. (App.ause)
Mr.. Hit spoke q few minutes more than

Mr. Hyde Republican), Of Washington
asked Mr.. Hit 10 state If the President
should not take any action upon the
resolution whether or not they would
be entirely nugatory, except merely as an
expression Of sentiment.
Mr.. Hit replied that he could not rec
ognize tho possibility Of such a condition
Of affairs, and therefore denied the prop
osition.
Mr.. Boutelle said when the proposition
was first before the House he opposed the
hurried and inconsderate action then pro-
posed. lie did not suppose than that he
was the only member who opposed such
hasty action.
