no END THE WAR.
Twenty-Five Thousand Americans
Ready to Go to Cuba.
A Sensational Proposition Made to the
Janta In Washington by the American
Volunteer League-Thcy Reside
In western States.

WASHINGTON, April IA new and
just developed which promises TO put
an entirely different phase on the war
in Cuba within the next three months,
II the proposition just made is accept
ed. For the last three days the Cuban
junta-President Thomas Estrada Pail
ma, Secretary Quesada and Treasurer
Guerra-has been holding a series of
important conferences in Washington.
Yesterday they were closeted with
three prominent western men who rep
resent the American Volunteer league,
an organization with branches in Kan
sas, Missouri, Texas, Arkansas, Hi
nois, and at least 20 of the western
states. The report of the league sub
mitted to the junta contains plan,
worked out to the smallest details, by
which Is, 200 Americans, all drilled and
trained in the use of arms, can be
placed on the island under the flag of
Cuba Libre within the next 90 days.
The officers of the league told the
junta they had enlisted, ready to start
for Cuba on "a hours notice, 15,000
men. For the most part they belong
to the militia of the different states,
are disciplined, drilled and eager to
fight. One regiment is organized in
Missouri, one in Kansas, one in Ne
braska, one in Texas and one as far
west as Oregon. To arm this force To-
900 Springfield rifles have been engaged
and 1000 Krag-Jorgensen guns have
hn of no
of sharpshooters. For $1,000, 600 the
representative of the American Volun-
teer league offered to put $4,000 Amer
lean soldiers in Cuba within 80 days, in
the language of their leader, 'to march
from one end of the island of Cuba to
the other and to lick every Spanish
force in the way"
The representatives of the league
also submitted to the junta plan for
raising the necessary money. They
asked them to issue 81, 900, 900 in bonds
of S. and $40 denomination, and showed
them that they had propositions from
two western smelters to furnish silver
bullion, and to coin it into silver money
of our denominations to aid in floating
the bonds. The officers of the junta
have gone to New York to consider the
matter. They will come to Washing
ton again next week to meet the repre-
sentatives of the American Volunteer
league and to give final answer to
this proposition.
According to information received
from trustworthy sources here the
withdrawal of at least part of tho
great army that Spain has maintained
for several years in the island of Cuba
will begin when the rainy season sets
in within a few days. The initial
movement will be the departure of 49,
900 Spanish troops from Havana for
Spain, and within a short time after
that 10000 troops, it is understood,
will follow. Whether this movement
is to be construed in favor of or against
the insurgents is not possible to say.

SACKETTs HARBoR, n. Y, April IT,
Yesterday afternoon George Allen,
steward of the Ninth United States
infantry at Madison barracks, hired a
horse and carriage at a livery stable
here and took Miss May DAILY and a
divorced woman, Mrs. Crouch, driving.
Early this morning the horse came back
to the stable, drawing the carriage. In
the bottom of the vehicle was found
the bodies of the two women, both
dead. About this time Allen came
staggering into the barracks in badly
wounded condition, and it is expected
he too will die. He has made an ante
mortem statement that Crouch, hus-
band of the divorced woman, assaulted
the whole party, murdered the two
women and threw him (Allen) into a
creek. Crouch is under arrest.

DIVERSE TARIFF DEMANDS.
Many Interests to Be Considered In Franz
ing the New Bill.

WASHINGTON, April 17.-That there
are many interests to be considered in
the framing of tariff bill was espe-
cially shown yesterday by the action
of Senator'S Baker and Harris, of Kan
sas, who appeared before the republic
an subcommittee of the finance COM
mittee to protest against any change
in the duty on Mexican cattle. Their
objection was based on the ground
that the Mexican cattle brought into
the states were fattened for market ON
the pastures of Kansas and other west
ern states, thus benetiting the farmers
of those states. Senators and repre-
sentatives of the intermountain states,
which are largely engaged in grazing,
have steadily urged a higher duty than
now exists, claiming that it was neces-
sary to protect the cattlemen of their
states. In this connection, the same
men are pleading for a restoration of
the duty on hides, which the hide and
leather men are so vigorously oppos-
ing. 1t is noticeable that nearly all of
the advocates of duty on hides are
also advocates for the establishment of
a stiff duty on wool.
