Cubans Have Set Out to Win Inde-
incidence.

T. Estrada Palma, president of the Cuban
revolutionary junta, Tuesday night, in New
York gave out the following address to the
people of the United States:
THE persistency with which the Ameri-
can press has during the last few days
been treating of supposed administrative
reforms to be introduced in Cuba by the
government Of Spain. compels me to re-
quest the publication of the following
declarations which 1 make in behalf of my
government. of the army of liberation of
Cuba and of the Cuban revolutionary par
ty:
THE question of the supposed reforms Is
not a matter which at all concerns those
who have already established an independ-
ent government in Cuba and have resolved
to shrink from no sacrifice of property or
life in order to emancipate the whole island
from the Spanish yoke. III the SpaniardS
resident in the island who are favored by
the Spanish government with all sorts of
privileges and monopoGes, and if the hand
full of Cubans too pusillanimous or too
proud to acknowledge their error, or few
foreigners, guided only by selfish interests
are satisfied that Cuba should remain I'M
der Spanish abomination, We, who militate
under the flag of the solitary star we. who
already constitute the republic of Cuba and
belong to a free people, with its own gov
eminent and it's own laws; are firmly re-
solved to listen to no compromise and to
treat with Spain only on the basis of alb
solute independence for Cuba.
IF Spain has power tesexterminate u.s.
then let her convert the island into a vast
cemetery: if she has notr and wishes to
terminate the war before the whole country
is reduced to ashes, then let her adopt the
only measure that will put an end to it,
and recognize our independence. Spain
must know by this time that while there Is
a single living Cuban with dignity-and
there are many thousands of thenl-there
will not be peace in Cuba nor even hope of
it.
''All good causes must finally triumph
and ours is a good cause. 1t is the cause
of justice treated with contempt, of tight
suppressed by force, and of the dignity of
a people offended to the last degree.
1--WE have thrown ourselves into the
struggle advisedly and deliberat ely; we
knew what We would have to face, and we
decided unflinchingly to persevere until we
should emancipate ourselves from the Span
ish government. And we know that we are
able to do 1t, as We know that We are COM
petent to govern ourselves. Experience has
taught as that as people We have nothing
to envy the Spaniards; in fact We feel our
can expect no improvement, no better edu-
cation
with regard to the knowledge of modern
institutions and to democratic sentiments
We are far more advanced than the Span
iards. II that respect and in many others
we have nothing in common with the Span-
ish people. We are Americans, we breathe
the pure air of free institutions and we
contemplate with envy the government of
the people, by the people, and for the peo-
pie"

Finnish Nfatrimony.

From Vignettes of Finland, by Give Bayley.
All the way our driver had been very
chatty. He told us how he had chosen his
wife. He said: There was some talk of
her in the village. My aunts nephew
spoke to me of her, but never saw her
till the day before we were engaged. When
1 heard of her / went to the puhumies
oman of speech, who always arranges
these things. l gave him five marks for
her. She liked what she heard of me, and
she gave him, as she was bound, white
shirt. Then / thought / would see her so
We arranged to meet at church at Unni-
kiemi, and We went there and il was all

4 DEFICIENCY LIKELY,
Paymaster General of the Navy Says
Ennas Are Nearly Exhausted.

Paymaster General Stewart has informed
the Secretary of the Navy that in conse-
quence of inadequate appropriations the
navy fund is nearly exhausted He SAYS
that the service will expend all of the fund
known as pay miscellaneous by the end
of the present month, and that he will be
without funds during May and June to
carry on certain items unless Congress
makes immediate provision for the de-
fieiency. The principal items affected are
officers mileage, travelling expenses, rents
of buildings, expenses of purchasing pay
offices and possibly the salaries of employees
of such offices.
In addition the department desires funds
with which to close the accounts of certain
navy officers whose claims for pay have
been passed by the Treasury Department
accounting officers Some of these claims
cover the fiscal year which ended in June,

PEACE TO PREVAIL
Continued from First Page.)

think that the United States people should
be glad that the sister English-speaking ma
ton had possessed herself of the Dutch
colonies in the South sea and the Dutch
possessions in South Africa; that she had
an impregnable fortress on the southern
point or Spain and an island fortress in
the Mediterranean, with no territory of
her own in the vicinity. These instances,
said Mr.. Smalley, seem to be regarded as
legitimate objects Of applause, while the
crowdng of boundary lines on the Ameri-
can continent are allowed without protest.
Yet, to suggest that the United States
should establish itself as naval power
was Immediately declared to be ''jingoism."
Mr.. Smalley said he was from a state
whose rivers mingle with the waters of
the Gulf of Mexico, the Gulf of st. Law
renee and the Hudson bay, and he did not
believe that the sentiment of the Ameri-
can people was in favor of the United
States combining its mission on the globe
strictly within it's own limits.
A point Of order was made against Mr..
Smalieys remarks as not being germane
to the subject under consideration by the
conference, but it was overruled.
Should Become a Sea Power.
Continuing Mr.. Smalley said the Union
wanted arbitration not because it was
weak, but because it was a young and
strong and combative nation. 1t wanted to
contest for the commercial supremacy of
the world.
sea power, and the United States was
bound to build itself a strong navy.
There were cries Of Yes" Yes" and
NO" NO" at this assertion.
Mr.. Smalley described how England COM
manded the entrance to Puget sound and
how the great lakes were at the mercy of
her gunboats in case of trouble between
the countries. In conclusion, he warmly
favored the establishment of an interna-
tional court of arbitration.
Carl Schurz Replies.
Mr.. Schurz replied to Mr.. Smalley. He
said that when 1t was said that the Union
should be a great sea power, one should
first consider what such thing meant. 1t
meant that the United States must have
naval armament equal to that Of Great
Britain and France combined. Are we
ready for such a thing he inquired, and
there was chorus of noes.
Modern navies, said Mr.. SchurZ, are ex-
periments. No one knows what modern
battle ship will do in action. 1t is a great

Popular situations and desirable ones are
clerkships in eitLer house of parliament.
In 1857 the clerk of the house OF commons,
Sir Reginald Palgrave, introduced the sys-
TEN of limited competition. There are
usually one OF two vacancies annually, and
the obligatory part Of the examination, be-
sides the usual subjects, embraces consti-
tutional history and Latin, while the op-
tior al subjects include Greek French, Ger
man ana mathematics, of which subjects
the candidate may attempt two Only. Ths
examination fee is &c, and the limits OF
age are nineteen and twenty-five years
Clerks between the ages of Eineteen and
twenty-four, whose parents do not reside
in London or the vicinity, must be provided
with such place of residence as shall meet
with the approval of tie clerk OF the house
of commons
The whole clerical staff in this house
numbers thirty-f0ur, and the salaries run
from fl00, the figure at which a Junior be-
gins to LOCO, at which the remuneration
of the principal clerk eliminates. The
staff of clerks in the house of lords IS
smaller, but is recruited in a similar way.
