Bill for It's Repeal Considered I'm the
House..

After finishing the District business yes
terday the House took Up the considera-
ton of the bill to repeal the clause in the
existing tariff law providing for free alco-
hol for use in the arts and manufactures.

Mr.. Russell of Connecticut, and insisted

appointment of a joint commission to ex-
anime all questions relating to free alcohol
and report at the short session next De-
cember), was offered as an amendment to
the bill. Mr.. Hill of Connecticut, who
voiced their sentiments, favored a bill
which would perfect the provision instead
of one fer its repeal He characterized the
bill presented by the ways and means
committee as a surrender 10 a democratic
administration.
Mr.. Evans of Kentucky, who had charge
of the measure, argued that any sort of a
free alcohol provision would open the way
for fraud on the government, but that
pending a complete report as authorized
by the commission, the existing crude pro-
vision, which was piling up claims against
the government at the rate of $4,000
day, should be repealed
Mr.. Russell of Connecticut gave reluc-
tant assent to the bill as II was proposed
to amend it. The bill was not concluded.

ernments Sympathize With Cuba.
Mr.. Smythe, United States minister to
Hayti, who is now in this city on leave
of absence. has caused a commotion in off,
cial and diplomatic circles by his radical
and original views on situation I'm Cuba.
THE governments and the people of the
West Indies" says Minister Smythe, have
no sympathy whatever for the Cubans;
nor can they understand the feeling in
favor of the insurgents which obtains in
the United States, and which is expressed
in the resolutions passed by Congress. 1t
Is their hope and belief that Spain will
suppress the rebellion. 1t is well that we
have at the head of our government an
executive who stands like bulwark against
popular clamor. The President knows the
facts of the Cuban situation, and hence he
has resisted the influence which has been
brought to bear upon him in favor of the
recognition of the insurgents. Congress did
not or it would never have passed such
resolutions. And the country Goes not, for
If 1t did there would be cessation OF the
expression of sentimental enthusiasm for
rebels who have no claim to consideration
at the hands of this or any ether govern
ment.
'.The men engaged in the rebellion are
principally negroes. brigands, revolution
lists, adventures and others of that ilk
1 believe that Spain will crush the rebel
lion. The revoutionists, / may say, are
fighting simply that they may loot the is
land. There is only one thing that can
prevent Spanish victory, and that is the
forcible intervention of some other power.
From Hayti no expeditions in behalf of
the Cubans have set forth, nor so far as
can learn is there filibustering from Santo
Domingo l know that the dominican gov
eminent is opposed to filibustering, and is
sparing no effort to prevent it. 1 may add
that all the West Indian governments are
opposed to the recognition Of the Cubans.
No intelligent person in the West Indies
has sympathy for the Cuban cause"
