London Papers Foresee Trouble as q
Result of the Cuban Resolution.
LONDON, Feb. 29.-The action of
the United States senate on the Cuban
question has aroused comment Of the
press of the city.
The Times says: 'sThe resolution is
very EN- barrassing for Spain, who,
while she cannot but regard the rec
IGNITION as an unfriendly act, is in no
position to resent it. She could gain
nothing by declaring war against the
United States, who, in addition, can
make out a case which is at least
plausible. that it is merely tardy and
reluctant recognition of palp able
facts

TOO MANY WOLVES LEFT.
Mrs. Lease VIII Not Leave Politics
Vet for the Ministry.

KANSAS CITY, Feb 29-Captain John
Shields is in town from Wichita.
In speaking of things at the future
great of Kansas, Captain Shields said:
"Its rather amusing to hear the papers
tell of M airy E. Leases entrance into the
ministry. All sorts of stories are afoat
about it, but the truth of the matter is,
she is no more minister than any of the
rest of US. She is u member of the Chris
tian church of our town, aud they asked
her to lecture one night when the minis
ter was i'll. She consented and carried
out her promise, and she filed that house
as it never was flied before.
probably they'd like her to serve in
that capacity all the time, but Mary Ell
len says there are too many wolves in
politics that need skinning without 60
ing into the church to disturb the sheep
and the goats"
