SanEuIliy'S Withdrawal Of Appeal Does
Not bar Him From Claiming Indemnity,
WASHINGTON. D. C.. Feb. 25.--It Is
understood here,and the fact may have
an important bearing upon the treat
ment OF the sangullly case, II well es-
tablished, that the withdrawal OF his
appenl to-day was without prejudice;
In other words. that II does not stop
him from taking action In the future.
II he feels that ie has reason, to secure
Indemnity for his imprisonment.
II appears that the only legal meth
cd of securing the prisoners discharge
speedlly was that adopted by his
counsel, namely, withdrawing the
appeal that had been taken from the
sentence OF the lower court in Cuba.
Perhaps the same result could have
been obtained by allowing the appeal
to be heard by the court at Madrid,
but this involved long wait. and so
long as the appeal was pending, the
Spanish law did not admit of par
don. so. for the benefit Of the prls-
oner. 4lIg counsel Withdrew the appeal.

Dramatic scenes.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 25.-The
Cuban resolutions were taken up
promptly by the senate to-day.
The first resolution coming over from
yesterday was that of Mr., Allen, ask
ing the President to use effective meas
ures to protect American citizens in
Cuba and to taat end to send It's war
ships to Cuban ports.
Mr. Allen Eaid American citizens

son searched under circumstances OF

worst conceivable slavery; sold TO a

heels, hacked them TO pieces with tho
deadly machete aud killed the parents.
Such action was blot on the civill-
cation OF the age Why should Con.
gress remain supine. The time would
come when this jnaction would make
our people hang their heads for being
American citizens.
Mr.. Morgan said the committee on
sOreign relations had pressed forward
his protection 10 American citizens as
fsi Ns the well authenticated facts
would permit. The reports OF atr0cIt-
leg against women and little girls were
vague, and did not have that verliica-
ton wafranting action by the commit
tee. Y had. however, brought forward
che resolution for the immediate re-
Lease Of Sunguilly as the facts IN this
case were established beyond ques-
tlun.
Mr.. Honr Inquired whether some time
should not be given for senators TO

action on the subject involved gFaVo
International consideration.

senate was storm-swept to-day. by
such passionate debate. such extraor-
d.narg demonstrations in tho crowded
galleries. and such dramatic personal
exchanges between the conspicuous
,gures OF the senate. as 70 make the
day one OF the most memorable In the
annals Of the upper branch OF Con-
eress.
Cuba was the theme, and seemed TO
sur all the pent-up emotions OF months.
1t brought about the complete dis
placement Of appropriation bills, threat
ening their failure. and the advance
ment Of the Cuban question to the
very front OF senate business. 1t dis
closed, also, that the resolution de-
mnndinF OF Spain the immediate aud
unconditional release OF Julio Sanguil-
iy, having on test vote secured the
right ot way. would be resisted BY
pgotracted debate.
The Allen resolution for sending bat
tieshlps to Cuba, came up soon after
the senate opened at IL a. M, and Mr..
Allen severely arralgned Spain for
crie!teS against women and children.
Mr.. Morgan, (Alobamn), who report

lease OF SanEullly, followed in calm
speech, reclting the breach OF treaty

Mr. Daniel, (YirSlnia). In a fcrvid
plea for SanGuilly, stirred oil the lat
ent passion OF the senate. He spoke OF
spanish outrages to American citizens
and insults TO American officials.
When Air. Hale. (Nlainel sought to
iaierject questions. Mr.. Daniel sug-
EestiVcly stnted that he would yield In
due time. whether 1t be to the organ
OF the captain general OF Cuba, or OF
ibe Queen OF Spain, or OF any one else.
In view OF Mr.. Hale's attitude on the
cuban question, the meaning was un-
nistaItable. Personal feeling was
qui.ed, however. by mutual explana-
tons
This was followed by series Of ex-

CINCINNATI, Ohio, Feb. 25.-To-

here navigation Is resuming. At Ports
mouth, boats are assisting the crippled
railways in carrying mails and pas
sengers. Danger is over in all the In
undated up-rivcr towns. Suffering at

diminishing. The came may DO said
OF Huntington, Catlettsburg, Hanging
Rock, Aberdeen and Maysville. where
the inundatIon drove out hundreds OF
families. From Maysville down to
Cincinnati, the food Is at its worst.
Upper Cincinnati, at Pendleton, Is pref
ty badly flooded. Al least hundred
families are driven from dwellings,. UP
Mil Creek, few families have been
driven from home and many cellars
nre full of water. Down the river at
Delhi, Riverside, Coal City and Adding

10 abandon their homes and many cell

Kentucky side OF the river, su1eFs most
pronortlonately. Over 800 families have
been driven to higher ground. Large de.
tnils OF police are employed day and
night giving relief. Covington Is almost
linscathed, The village OF Bromley, be-
low Ludlow, with almost 700 inhabitants,
is almost wholly flooded. The dam OF
the great luke at the Ludlow Lagoon IS
