WASHINGTON LETTER.

special Correspondence.
Washington, May Oath, 1897
Speaker Reed is the man who con-
trolls the fate of the Senate resolu-
ton declaring for the recognition
of Cuban belligerency, and there
is noreason for anybody entertain-
ing any doubt as to his attitude
toward the resolution. If Presi-
dent Mckinley: should conclude
that recognition of belligerancy
would be preferable to the policy
he has mapped out for himself and
should desire 20. have that resolu-
ton adopted by the House, he has
only to say so and Speaker Reed
will promptly put the resolutions
through, but so long as the Presi-
dent remains of the opinion that a
recognition of belligerency will
not satisfactorily meet the exigen-
cies of the case, that resolution
will remain just where it is-on
the Speakers table. There is
much talk about q revolt on the
part of the House, and the adop-
ton of that resolution in spite of
the Speaker, but it is only talk.
Enough republicans in the House
will stand by the Speaker and
President to control that body, and
that too, in view of the fact that
probably seven tenthse of them are
IN favor of the belligerency reso-
luton. No such thing as "vote
of confidence" is known in Ameri-
can legislative proceedings, but

the adoption of that resolution at
this time would embarass him in

long as they would be able to do
so, have set an example worthy of
emulation. In these days when
so many have becom chronic beg
sars, it is indeed edifying to see
men who have too much pride to
play, the role of public mendicants.
