q serious matter at all had it not been
for the interference of the United
States. It could never have passed the
limits of q riot had it not been for the
money, supplies and arms that were
sent from this country. Men have
gone from this country with the assur.
ance that the United States would ex-
tend belligerent rights to the Cubans
and, in all probability, send feet to
the Cuban waters to support the insur-
gents. At no time have the authorities
in this country given the situation in
Cuba fair investigation to ascertain
what the facts actually are. 1t has
been said that all Cubans are interested
In the rebellion, but the truth Of the
matter is. there are Z Cuban generals
and 700 Cuban officers fighting in the
Spanish army in Cuba"

New York, Feb. 25.-To the Editor
Of The Clarion. Ledger: From recent

ter has been circulating q your city

From the same source of information
learn that some persons have believed

United States should open its mints to
the free coinage of silver at 16 to l in
dependently Of the cooperation and
action Of other nations, and in that be-.
lief have been led into false position
as regards their own principles. Un-
der these circumstances, ought to say
that do not believe in that theory of
finance, but consider it unsound and, if
adopted, likely to lead to most evil con.
iequences to our people and their in
dustries and prosperity. It is. in my
opinion, fundamentally wrong and
vicious. I lam believer in gold and
silver as the metallic basis of values
and Of the worlds currency, and I am
confident that within q time not far
distant there will be a conference Of
the nations upon that subject by which
the ratios of values Of the two metals

BARCELONA, Spain, March 2.-The
fever Of indignation and hate against
the United States which seems to have

visional government Of Cuba as bel

Cleveland to use his good offices with
Spain to secure the independence Of
Cuba eliminated in violent scenes here
during the day and an attack upon the
United States consulate. The trouble
did not arise out Of the spontaneous
formation of the mob which did the
violence, but was the outcome Of pub
lie meeting which had been influenced
by fervid speeches. The public demon
stration to protest against the United
States senate's action was organized by
the political leaders, including Repub-
licans and men of all shades Of political
sentiment. It was 3 o'clock in the
afternoon when the meeting had as

ill in a state of high patriotic enthu-
siasm and ripe for any manifestation Of
the emotions which possessed them.
They were addressed by the orators
provided for the the occasion and the
purpose Of the meeting explained al
one Of protest against the recognition
of the Cuban government as belliger-
ent power by the United States senate.
The spirit OF the crowd took fire and
they set off for the United States con-
sulate. The leaders who had originated
the meeting seem to have realized the
serious consequence that might follow
upon q demonstration that took this di-
rection and they made every effort to
dissuade the mob from its purpose, but
their utmost efforts were Of no avail
and the crowd set off for the United
States consulate. The authorities oi
the city had by this time taken alarm
and force Of police K
Was Sent to the Consulate.
The excited crowd was not intimidated
by this show Of force from gathering
before the consulate and shouting
"Long live Spain," and down with
the Yankees" These verbal missiles
did not long satisfy the aroused pas
sions of the mob, and in . short time
stones began flying from the crowd
which broke number of windows in
the United States consulate. The force
Of police waited for no further mani
festation, but charged the crowd under
orders of their officers and roughly dis
persed them, wounding several. St
far as learned there were no fatal re-
suits. Being driven away from the
United States consulate, the crowd
marched off to the prefecture Of police
and gathered at the newspaper Offices
There they listened to more fervld ora
tory and got themselves worked up tt
the highest pitch of enthusiasm and
patriotic speeches. The military clul
in the city was also center Of excite
ment and there were also glowing
speeches indulged in to the honor ot
the army, which were eagerly listened
to and greeted with loud cheers.
