Chicago March 2s-A special to the
Tribune from Washington, D. c., says:
Aid for Cuba has come from an unex-
pected source. 1t is said here that Eng
land will follow the United States in
recognizing the Cuban patriots An
informal intimation to this effect has
been received at the state department,
and the status of the Cubanf question
has changed at once, owing tEhis sud
den development
While Spain has been preparing for
an appeal to European nations against
the United States, Great Britain has
quietly taken the other track and de-
cided to join with the United States in
helping Cuba. Such a communication
was not conveyed in an Official letter,
but it is said Secretary Olney was given
10 understand by Sir Julian Pauncefote
that Great Britain would not only not
object to any action the United States
might take in connection with Cuba, but
would even welcome any reasonable
interference which would tend to stop
the war now going on in the island
That such an intimation was given
semi officially was learned positively
last night, and the effect of the informa.
ton, whenit became generally known,
will be to render almost speedy action
by this country.
Great Britain deplores the warfare on
the island, and English commercial in
teresis could not look on unmoved
while the price of sugar was moving
upward as the result of the destruction,
of Cuban canefelds. Therefore came the.
intimation that Great Britain would
gladly stand aside and see the United
States take the initiative il Cuba.
No promises were made that could
bind Great Britain in any way, and the
queens government was no. - IN
record in any way, out Secretary Olney
has been given to understand that if the
presider. dAc:5es = recognize -..e pair
OTIS as belligerents, Great Britain will
mo- be far behind in doing the same
thing.
British capitalists are large holders of
the Spanish bonds based on Cuban GUS
tom revenues, and they might not
relish the independence of the island
unless the bonds were provided for.
With the United States as an interven-
ing power, it might be possible to secure
an arrangement by which the Cubans
themselves would assume the bonds,
with this country as a guarantee.
An Intervention by this country in
any way, even if it did not result in
the immediate independence of the
island, would unquestionably force
Spain to grant local self-government,
promote the commerce of Cuba and
therefore increase the value of the
bonds, whose only security are the
receipts of Cuban custom houses.
Such suggestion might be expected
to come later, but for the present Great
Britain is contented with informing the
United States that all fear of European
with our Cuban policy is
at an end.
1t is also thought if the United States
with the moral support of great Britain,
in the Cuban war, it will
make the two countries allies and hasten
-ather than retard the favorable and
friendly conclusion Of the Venezuelan
boundary dispute.
Il looks as though Cuba is now as
ured of either independence or genu
ne colonial government such as Great
Britain gives to Canada and Australia.

a belle, whose gowns make her

with flaming scarlet ribbons. The cut of
the waist seems to he plain, straight one,
with the one careful work done in the fit
ing of the sleeves, which are set III the
shoulder seams in the most shionable way.
Around the neck, which lies low upon the
throat, there runs small scarlet satin rib
bon, tied demurely at the back of the neck.
Three inches lower upon the throat there
runs another ribbon. also tied in little
roSette at the back. There is a slight full
ness in the baiiste that lies flat under the.
ribbons. The waist has three rows of
scarlet ribbons the upper one extending
up well toward the bust. The lower one
marks the waist line in an easy way. and
all are secured with rosettes at the back.
The sleeves have ribbons around the wrist.
Each ribbon is finished with rosette. CIV

HATS IN ENGLAND.

HOSSIBLY the change which is most
II striking to the casual observer is
that in the positiou OF hats. The dis
tinct tilt forward so completely
alters their character Time IS
required to accustom the eve to new
things, aud given a few weeks OF hats in
clined downward over the face. we shall
probably think the position above all things
pretty. at present 1t is a little startling
especially in those cases where the new
idea has been adopted with characteristic
decision. about which there can be no
mistake. One worn at a very smart we'd
ding this week was Duustable straw, TRIM
med. quite in rustic fashion, with roses of
varied colors and green chiffon. 1t was
raised quite two inches at the back of the
head and inclined downward, resting lust
above some soft tendrils OF nut brown hair
on the forehead. Picture hats effect a Com,
promise. They are worn much more on
the head than was the case, but they are
not directly tilted forward, although thew
will share the common fate of fashionable
hats in this direction ere long. Ronnets.
even, are brought more forward than the v
were, and those of small, close shape, made
of some costly embroidery and not much
trimmed, are supposed to be sInartest, pos.
sioly as offering such very decided con-
trast to hats--London Telegraph.

~ room nothing is prettier or more
appropriate than linen. The linen
novelties are unusually pretty this
spring. and the stores have some very
pretty and novel designs. There was an
exquisite counterpart in lilies, which
would delight the heart of any woman
who has home of her own. Both the
centerpiece and the doiles were round in
shape, and the lilies encircled them. Linen
picture frames were shown in effective de-
signs, A frame of deep purple linen, on
which spray of lilies was embroidered,
was, perhaps. the most effective, though
he green linen frames on which lilies and
vioIets were embroidered, were very
pretty. Court-plastcr cases of white linen
are useful and convenient little tokens of
regard for the bicycle fiend. Embroidered
with small spring flowers, buttereups, or
