CHANGE IN HOUSE COMMITTEES.
New Faces in Congress Compel "a
General RemOdeling.

Washington, Nov. 15.-Although the next
house of representatives Will be largely
republican, considerable remodeling OF
committees, on account of the new faces
which will come into the house. will take
place Many republicans were not renom-
mated and some were not reelected, after
having received the nomination. Some Of
the vacancies are on important commit
tees.
That one on the committee of rules,
caused by the death of Crisp, Will nave
to be filled at once. 1t has been intimated
that Henry G. Turner of Georgia will he
selected for the remaining short session,
although another person would have to be
chosen in the next congress, as Turner
was not reelected.
Some of the silver democrats may OBJ
iect to this, as Turner is a gold man. 1t
is said that Bailey of Texas may be the
choice, but If Turner is appointed 1t will
give the democrats an opportunity to
designate the leader of the minority IN
the house by the nomination of a candi-
date for speaker.
There is no change in the republican
membership of the ways and means COM
mittee, all being returned. On the demo-
cratic side there are three vacancies
Crisp, Turner and Cobb.
On the appropriation committee the re-
pubIicans lose four members-Arnold of
Rhode Island, Hainer of Nebraska, Blue
of Kansas and Mccall of Tennessee, and
the democrats lose Layton of Missouri
and Bartlett of New York.
Only one of each party on the account
committee is left. The republicans lose
Aldrich of Illinois, Mccall of Tennessee,
Tracy of Missouri and Long of Kansas,
and the democrats lose Rusk of Maryland,
Price of Louisiana and Cobb of Missouri

SPAIN ASKS FOR s5o,ooo.ooo
Loan Probably to Prosecute oDero-
tons In Cuba.

Washington, Nov. 15.-Senor Denuv do
LONE the Spanish minister, has received
news from Madrid to the effect that on
tomorrow morning, at that city. the gov
eminent will make an announcement ask
ing for public subscriptions for q loan of
| $500O0,0OO. While the minister said the
loan was not to be made purposely for the
immediate purchase of munitions and
equipments for war, yet it was probable
the bulk of the money would be used to
detray expenses of the conflict now going
on in Cuba.
Minister de LONE has received a tele-
gram from an official source saying that a
private canvass has been made among
bankers and brokers of Madrid with the
intention of finding out how much they
would subscribe, and that so far the diff
Ierent hnanciers have promised to take
up bonds amounting to over $50, 900, 900.
No Real Battle.
havana, Nov. 15.-No very explicit news

Weyler, but it known that after the en-
gagement at the Rubi hills he continued
his march into the interior of the noun
tains towards Sorea and succeeded in PEN
etrating to points which no other Spanish
columns ever reached. He has had sew
eral skirmishes with the insurgents, not
Withstanding the advantageous positions
which they held in these mountain
strOngholds, but he has not succeeded in
confronting any considerable force of the
insurgents.
Defense on the Island.
Havana, Nov. 15.-The committee of ma
tional defense today held a meeting, pre-
sided over by the governor, and agreed to

they seek to accomplish. The committee
of national defense also resolved to take
steps to organize the labor of the island

WAS LEFT TO STARVE
waLLA WALLA PARENTS CRUELTY
MISTREATED AN INFANT.
pohy Was Not IL Legitimate Child,
and the Mother Desired It's
Death.

Walla Walla, Wash, Nov. 13.-Tom
costs today by Justice Nixon for starving
their infant child. The evidence showed
that Bassetr ana wlIe were DESTROYS of
getting rid of their Is months old child,
and took the means of starvation. They
neglected 1t in every way, and left it at
home in the day time without food and
water and no one to care for it. On de-
fault of payment of the fines both went
to Jail.
Bassett and wife were arrested on com
plant of Health officer Alban, whose at
tenton was called to the case by Mrs.
NJ e. Graves, in whose charge the child
had been placed by Mrs. Bassett Tuesday
night.
DR.. Alban stated to the court yesterday
that when he called he found the child
ravenous for food, dirty and poorly
clothed The body was covered with
bruises and sores, the result of neglect
on the part of the mother.
Mrs Graves stated Mrs. Bassett came
to her house Tuesday night and requested
her to care for the child as she was go
inc to work. The child was very weak
and emaciated, and she became alarmed
and notified the health officer.
Mrs. Hines, who occupies a portion Of
the same house where the Bassett's "e-
sde testified that Bassett and his wife
would leave the house early in the morn
ing and not return till evening, leaving
the child alone in room up stairs with
no food
Both Bassett and wife denied that they
had ill-treated the cnIld, and while ad-
hitting they had left it alone, had always
provided it with food.
The wife is a girl II years of age, and
does not seem to realize the responsible
~ to care for her child.
She was married to Bassett about three
months ago.
1t developed today that the child is
Legitimate, and that the father is a
young farmer residing near Baker noun
tain, Umatilla county, Or.
Shortly before her marriage to Bas-
sett, the wife, whose name was TurnboW,
secured marriage license to marry ar
other man, but the marriage never took
place.
The child is now in care of Mrs. Graves.
There are said to be other features Of

INsTs ON
RESULTS.
SPAIN
Probable Attitude OF the United
States Government.

Washington, Nov. 16.--Tt is learned on
authority that the Spanish government
has given General Weyler to understand
he must push operations against the In
surgents aggressively and vigorously.
Unless he soon achieves a decisive victory
over the Cubans, 1t is believed he will
be recalled Weyler, it Is understood, is
aware of the alternative and the present
campaign in Pnar del Rio is expected to
result in an engagement that will put
new aspect on the Cuban situation, one
way or the other.
Weyler has all the troops he can use.
There are over 100000 Spanish soldiers in
Cuba, and the force under the captain
general in the present operations is over
10000. Maceo against whom he IS now
operating, has under him, 1t Is estimated,
about 1000 men. Spain, having fulfilled
all of Weyer's wishes as to troops, ex-
poets results.
Consul General Lee has acquainted the
administration with these facts, and the
president is simply awaiting events and
will shape his course by developments.
It is hoped Weyler will be able to
score a decided victory before the as
sembling of congress, December 7. Spain
fears adverse action by that body, and
has urged General Weyler to demonstrate
his ability to crush the rebellion within
two weeks If possible. In view of the
facts that Spain is now making an al
most supreme effort to subdue her In
| surgent colony, and that a crisis Is APP
parently at hand, the president will de-
! Low tfrcr hot Out Of &c inc
message on the Cuban situation until the
| last possible moment before the meeting
of congress. The position the admins
| tration will take with reference to
Cuba in this message will be largely de-
termined by the news received before
| December T. Should this be favorable to
the success of the Spanish army, 1t is
probable the president would continue
to pursue his policy of non-interference;
should 1t be distinctly favorable to the
| insurgent cause, especially should Wey
! Ter be defeated Mr.. Cleveland, 1t Is pos
sible, would no longer hesitate to recon-
mend recognition of their rights as bell
/ ligerents or some other action equally
| undesirable to Spain. What action may
follow a simple negative result of the
campaign, that Is, a fruitless chase after
! the insurgents by Weyler, is less clear
Probably the Administrations course
would be influenced in some measure, by
| representations Spain made as to the poll
! icy it would pursue. and Instructions
given her new captain general in the
| event of Weyer's summons home.
General Fitzhugh Lee consul general
to Cuba, called at the state department
| today and was with Secretary Olney half
an hour. There was no special significance
in the visit, beyond a further general dis
cussion of the situation. The consul
general had not called at the White house
up to noon, and is hardly expected to go
| there today.
Mr.. Cleveland is engaged on his annual
message, and few callers see him.
