WITHOUT EFFBCY
Secretary Of State Olney Gives an In
tervieW Concerning the Cam
erOn Resolution
ON INDEPENDENCE OF CUBA
Congress- Action Will Be Merely
Advisory to the Presidential
Warning.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19,-The Cameron
Cuban resolution, if pressed to its fina
passage in both houses, will constitute 6
direct and formidable issue between the
executive and Legislative branches of the
government. This is clearly indicated
by the following interview given out by
Secretary Olney today:
Secretary Olney, being asked his
opinion as to the nature ard effect OF
the proposed resolution recognizing the
independence of the republic of Cuba
said:
81 have no objection 10 stating my
own view of the resolution respecting
the independence of the so-called repub,
lie of Cuba, which, it is reported, is to
be laid before the senate on Monday.
Indeed, es there is likely to be serious
misapprehensions regarding such reso-
lutions, both in this country and abroa d
and as such apprehensions may have in.
furious results of grave character, it is
perhaps my duty to point out that the
resolution, if passed by the senate, can
probably be regarded only as en expires.
sion of opinion by the eminent gentle
men who vote for it in tne senate, and If
passed by the house of representatives
can only be egarded as another ey-
preston of opinion by the eminent gen
tlemen who vote for it in the house The
power to recognize the so-called repub-
lie of Cuba us an independent state
rests exclusively with the executive. A
resolution on the subject by the senate
or by the house, or by both bodies or by
one, whether concurrent or joint, is in
operative as legislation and is important
only as advice Of great weight, volunta
rily rendered to the executive regarding
the manner in which he sbal exercise
his constitutional functions, TITS oper-
alton and effect of the prol osed rosolu-
ton, therefore, even il passed by both
houses Of congress, even BY y two thirds
vote, are perfectly plain. Il may raise
expectations in some quarters which can
never be realized. IL may iuhame
popular passions both in this
country and elsewhere ert may
thus put in peril Sic lives and
property Of American citizeLs who are
resident aud travelling abroad, and will
certainly obstruc1 aud perhaps defeat
the beat efforts Of this government to
Afford such citizens due protection, But
except in these ways and unless the ad,
vice embodied IN the resolution shall
lead the executive to reyise Fha c1uclu-
sicns already reached and officially de
claTed, the resolution will be without
effect ard will leave u1atercd The atti-

ONTO THEIR JOB
A Gang of Alleged Mining Stock
swindlers Rounded Up in
Chicago.
A BUTTE MAN is AMONG THEM
The Victims of the SWindle We're Al
Wealthy and Presumably
Intelligent.

CHICAGO. Dec. lS-The Tribune says
Through the heecing of Dearborn
street real estate broker, who proved
willing to expose his own discontinue in
order to bring to justice the offenders, a
gang of alleged mining stock swindlers
has been run to earth bya detective
agency, and three men will have to stand
trial in this city on indictments charg-
ing forgery, conspiracy to obtain money
under false pretenses and a confidence
game. A. V. Cornell, alias "Orrie Fox
alias "Red Horse Jack has been placed
under bonds to stand trial. and William
Men utt. alias George II. Lynn" Of re-
ported wire tapping achievements, was
arrested by Deputy Sheriff Lyon on q
cspias in Judge Fosters court, where he
appeared in connection with another
case, Extradiuor papers are being pre-
pared TO bring third member Of
the gang, known as 3. C. Bayane, from
Butte, Montana. Under various guises,
as ore brokers', mining experts, gold
mining stock owners and Orp}ration
officials, Lynn and his partners have
carried on, it is charged, successful
trading in fraudulent paper, making
$1,000 10 $4,000 with comparatively slight
effort, not unmixeG with humorous eX-
periences. Investigation thus far tends
to show that A. S. Leib, a real estate
dealer at No. 10 Dearborn street, was
dafrauded Of $1,000 last month. Mrs.
Harriet J. Warren, at No. 1928 Dearborn
street, it is said, found herself victim
to the extent of dishonest draft thrown
out of Butte bank, calling for 2l,170.
The AmercHn National of Kansas City,
according to the story, was also nipped
for 500, which it advanced to cover
margin, securing, as it supposed, aquick
deal in mining stock for the Chicago and
Kansas City Commission Co. 1t 10 be.
lieved by the victims. detectives and
reputable mining officials at Butte, that
the gang has made victims by the
score over the country, but has so
far been able to avoid exposure, because
of the apparently respectable way
in which i: duped its "patrons,'
backed up With the natural sensitive
ness which makes businaas men shrink
from goiar after swindIers Of this kind
through fear Of calling down Iidicue
upon their folly Relying upon the cupid
ity Of tn average person ii the prospect
OF turning - 200 or g, 600 with the adj
vanceueEt Of losa than half that sum,
