WAR IN CuBA
What Weyler Thinks. in His Public
Statement.

New York, April ga dispatch to the
World from Havana says: Gen. Weyler IS
stalking all on the present military move
ment. He is opposing the guerilla war
fare by an almost geometric plan. In an
Interview the general said: sMaceo will
never cross the trocha except as a prisoner.
The day he attacks the trocha he will fall
or be captured 1t is utterly impossible
for him to come eastward. have strong
force on the whole line and also have q
large party of troops between Maceo's po-
stion in the northern mountains and the
trocha."S .@
.'But Maceo is on the east side of the
barrier. Suppose the two brothers should
attack the line from different sides at diff
ferent points on the same day?" & N
''Ah," replied Mr. Weyler, II have = a
strong force on this side which keeps Jose
Maceo's men divided into small bands and
they cannot unite for such maneuver.'
why DO you not attempt to force Maceo
to a decisive battle now?"
'daceo Will not stand and fight" the gen
era! answered. II have several independ-
ent columns which keep him moving about
In the hills"
s'But can. you not surround him? He IS
apparently confined to a small district?"
.sWell,' explained Gen. Weyler, that
would Simply mean chasing Macec through
the whole province. I do not propose to
have my main force drawn forward from
the trocha: I want the insurgents to at
tack the line
when do you look for an attempt to
force your line?"
Meyer SAID Gen. Weyier. 'My opin-
ion IS that Maceo knows he is in trap at
last and he will abandon his troops and
escape from Cuba by water
"You say the. war will be brought to an
end soon. How do you expect it to end?"
As soon as the insurgents see their cause
is lost" Gen. Weyler responded, the small
bands will begin to come in and give up
their arms.
lido you intend to proclaim general
amnesty"
Yves, but not now There must be more
fighting. The enemy. must be severely
punished in the field and their power COM
pletely broken. Then I will offer am
nesty, but not before,
New York, April ga dispatch to the
World from Madrid says: The report that
an understanding is about to be reached
between Spain and the United States in re-
gard to Cuba is fayorably received in finan-
c:al and commercial circles without stop
ping to inquire whether the welcome news
lis true or not.
* According to the current story the Span
ism government is to grant to Cuba very
soon, home rule, on much broader scale
than contemplated in the bills which have
SO far passed the cortes, and that this con-
cesson is to be supplemented by tariff re-
forms and treaty Of reciprocity to develop
trade between the United States and the
Spanish West Indies.

Office OF the State Secretary, A. 0. H Of
Minnesota, Lock Box 118, P.pestone, Mimi,
April Goth, 1896.-To the Officers and
Members OF the A. O. H. Society in the
State of Minnesota In accord
ance with the resolution carried at g joint
meeting of the state officers and board OF
directors OF the "A 0. II. and the Insurance
Fund, held in St Paul, on Tuesday, March
23rd, 1896; and in compliance with the Ma
tional Constitution, the 18th State Conven-
ton, and the seventh biennial meeting OF
the A. O. H., OF Minnesota, will convene at
II o'clock, noon, in Mankato, Minnesota, on
Tuesday, June 10th, 1896
The convention will be held ir the A. O.

OF the A. o. H., and D. Of E., will be at the
Ssulpaugh Hotel
AS provided in the Constitution and By
Laws, the basis of representation will be as
follows: Bylaws, Art. l, Sec. G, p 81:
'"rhe representation to the State Conven-
Ton shall consist OF the state officers coufl-
ty presidents, the colonel Of each regiment,
the captain of each company, the president
Of eaca division, together with an addi-
tional delegate for every fifty SOY mem

resented by full delegation. Many mat
tiers of Importance in regard to insurance,
and to the Ladies' Auxiliary Society; also
to the future welfare of the order in this

From Division No. 4, City.

The last meeting of Division No. was
an important one. President John Ken
nedy presided with his usual grace. A
question of Importance was taken UP and
discussed at great length. 1t was thought
If the division was incorporated it would
rebound to the benefit of all concerned,
and that there would be no danger Of
our treasurer absconding with the funds.
Now, 1t wasn't insinuated that Bro. P.
Flaherty was about to Journey to Canada,
but that some future treasurer might
like to visit the dolninion--Bro. Flaherty,
who now holds the purse strings OF No. 4,
is trust com pany in himself, and there
is no possibility Of his ever misapprO-
priating dollar Of our money.
The discussion was complete and thor
ough, and when the vote was taken in
corporation was defeated, and Bro. James
McConville sat down and sighed over the
death of his pet measure. Bro McCon-
ville is the Charles Q'Conor Of No. i, and
Bro. O'Meara, the William N. Eyarts of
the division. As an orator, Mr.. Evarts
was noted for his long sentences; and
Bro. O'Meara is gifted with the same
majestic style Of speaking.
/ Whoever states that the members of
No. are not good looking is a prevari~
Gator; for no finer looking men can be
found anywhere on the globe, and they
are, good as we'll as handsome. Bro. P.
M. Finn, the good looking police officer,
who spends his time flirting with the Ia
dies on his beat, is indignant because it
was intimated by a correspondent in the
Standard. that the boys were not beau
ties"
The young lady that: wrote the alleged
article rejecting on Bro. Finn, and your
correspondent, requests the Standard to
state that she retracts every word of what
she wrote, and that she believes there are
not as gallant gentlemen anywhere as in
No. 4.

Washington. April 23.-Three hundred
distinguished looking men met in Metze-
rott's hall yesterday afternoon for a con-
ference to promote the propaganda for in
ternational arbitration, which has been
supported by many religious and secular
organizations since the Venezuelan pound

tween Great Britain and the U1lited
States. There were several prominent
publicists and business men conspicuous
in the proceedings but the rank and me
Of the delegates, who numbered some 30o
and came from most Of the states and
territories, were educators and clersynen.
There was also notable absence of gov
eminent officials, for although invitations
had been extended to the president and
his cabinet, the supreme court, all mem
bers Of both houses Of congress and many
others Of the political circles, and though
the cooperation Of many of these digni-
taries had been counted upon, not one of
them put in an appearance at the after
noon meeting.
The proceedings of the first session were
entirely harmonious; the speeches dealing
in generalities upon the benehcence OF
arbitration. No utterances We're mace
which might tend to embarrass the ad-
n1inistration in the conduct of the pending
diplomatic negotiations with England or
Spain.
Before the meeting Secretary Olney was
visited by a committee, consisting OF
Judge Daily, Mr.. Curry, and Mr.. Dodge,
who outlined the plans for the conference
and submitted for his approval the reso-
buttons which will be presented to the
conference. The secretary of state founo
nothing to criticise in the resolutions and
expressed sympathy with the objects OF
the meeting Although no references were
made to- present international questions
the whole tenor Of the speeches was tow
ard an agreement for arbitration between
the two English-speaking nations.
