A CUBAN POLICY
Senator Foraker Says President
Mckinley Has One That Is
Well Defined.
Wants to Find Out the Exact
Status of Affairs Before TAX

Important Report Received From
Consul General Lee---What
He Says.

WASHINGTON, May Ex-senator For
aker of Ohio, speaking on the Cuban
resolution and in favor Of its reference
to the committee on foreign relations,
said that he knew the administration
had its policy on this question.
Senator Allen asked what the policy
of the administration was, and Mr..
Foraker replied that it was to ascer-
tain beyond peradventpre the exact
situation in Cuba 1t had sent its duly
authorized and accredited agent there
to investigate the whole condition and
report.
Mr. Morrill, argued in favor of leav-
ing the president a free hand, and said
that were we now to recognize the Gu
ban insurgents as belligerent, the Span.
ish government would Immediately be
released from responsibility for dam
ages which American citizens may
suffer from any future acts or mlsdeeds
of the revolters. When the executive,
legislative and judicial functions are
only documentary and migratory, re-
volters were not entitled to recognition.
He hoped forthe early and complete
| independence of the island, and when
the time was ripe, Independence would

wholly opposed to the annexation of
Cuba, as it meant the admission OF
Cuba as a state equal in power to New
York.

making any recommendations as to the
policy to be pursued by this govern
ment. General Lee states that the in
surgents are decreasing in numbers,
but that according to the most trust
worthy information at hand, there are
more of them now than when he went
to the island. He explains the appar-
ent want of organization by the state
ment that it is against the Cuban poll

cepted modern idea on this point.

NEW TARIFF BILL.
Hanna Believes That One Will Soon
Be Passed.

New York. Jan. PA Sun special
from Canton, O., says: Chairman
Hanna left at o'clock this evening
for his Cleveland home. Before leav-
ing he gave in a somewhat indirect
way the programme of early legislation
by the incoming administration. He
confirmed gossip that it is the inten-
ton of Major Mckinley to convoke
congress in extra session on March Is.
He also intimated strongly that an
understanding had been reached with
the doubtful senators which inSures the
success of the administration tariff bill.
The programme as arranged is that
Chairman Dingley of the committee on
ways and means. where the bill must
originate, will frame a bill. He is at
it now, and Senator Aldrich is assisting
him and preventing the Incorporation
of any clause that will meet with Sc
rious objection in the upper branch of
congress. When the measure reaches
the senate he is to pilot it through as
hastily as possible.
The programme. as it is arranged,
calls for the passage of the bill within
60 days and the schedules are to be ar
ranged so that the measure will be in
full force and effect with the beginning
of the fiscal year on July 1. The bill
is to be distinctively a protection bill,
incorporating, so far as now practic-
able the main features of the McKin-
ley law, but the first requirement of
the new measure is that it shall pro-
duce sufficient revenue to meet the
needs Of the government.
The desire of the administration, Mr..
Hanna says, is to get the tariff meas
ure into operation as soon as possible,
so that the country may experience
the relief of its increased revenues, ard
that, he said, is what the country
needs, and if not secured no substantial
Improvement can be expected. He ex-
poets an era of prosperity TO imme-
diately follow the enactment of the
new tariff bill, and hopes for but
little relief from the present depression
before that time.

Washington, Jan. 27.-By vote of
131 to 11S, the house today agreed to
the conference report on the immigra-
ton bill, which embodies substantially
new measure, being different III
some respects from either the senate or
house bill.
Speeches in favor of the report were
made by Messrs Dapford (Rep., o.,
who presented it from the ccnferees;
c. W. Stone (Rep., PENN, Johnson
(Rep., Ind.), Corliss (Rep., Mich.),
Morse (Rep., Mass.), Wilson (Dem.,
S. c., Taylor (Rep., o., and Hepburn
(Rep., la, and in opposition to 1t by
Messrs. Bartholdt (Rep., MOI, chair
man of the home committee Of imml-
grafton; Buck Dem., Lao. Parker
Rep., N. j., Walker (Rep., Mass),
Cannon (Rep,, Ills.), Grosveror (Rep,
o., Deliver (Rep., la, and Boatner
Oem., Lao. The principal objection
to the bill was the clause requiring i'm
migrants to read and write lin the
language of their native or resident
country This, it vas pointed out,
would prevent several classes of peo-
pie in Europe and in Central America
and Mexico from gaining admission to
the United States because they do not
speak either of the languages to which
the clause limits them. 1t was adj
mitted that the language was intended
to prevent the coming. of a large body
Of Russian Jews.

About 9 o'clock at night they strolled
into the Kingston yard of the Dela-

the reckless men had boarded her and
ierked the throttle wide open.
AS the yard men ran toward the To-
connective. the men in the cab pulled
the sand lever and the wheels, grind
ing into it, got hold of the rails and
the engine darted forward, out of the
yard and on the main track, north-
bound.
The men who saw the engine dis
appear in the darkness were for a
moment panic-stricken, for the New
York express, south bound on the
same track. was due in few minutes,
and if the two met. both going at full
speed, there was sure to be a great
loss of life. Only for a moment were
they Mortified. While some ran to the
telegraph Office, others chased the en-
SIZE up the track shouting, Stop
herl Stop herr"
The cries reached the ears of three
brakemen, who were going home. AS
the engine bore down upon them they
thought she was a runaway, and acted
quickly. Speeding along the side OF the
track they gained what Roadway they
could and then. as the engine whizzed
alongside, they sprang for the steps.
One missed and rolled over and over
along the track, unhurt, but the others
caught the bars and swung themselves
to the tank. AS they did so, Cunning
ham and Daily sprang from the cab
and disappeared in the darkness.
Quickly the brakemen clambered over
the tank and in few seconds had the
engine under control.
When the engine was stopped q light
flashed around a curve about a mile
away 1t was the headlight of the
New York express, but the train found
a clear track before it, and when 1t
drew into the Kingston station the
runaway engine was safe on the turn
table, being headed south for it's trip
down the road. Nothing has been seen
of Cunningham or Daily. knd the po-
lice are still looking for them.
