A YEARS HISTORY.
Some Of the Leading Events of
1895 Briefly Told
Legislative Work Not Very Important
The Year Abroad = The Famous
Dead-Disasters. Suicides.
Murders, Etc.

Chicago. Jan 1.-The year just closed was
memorable for good health, for fine har-
vests. for a continuance of friendly rela-
tons with the world Notwithstanding some
naeI cling war clouds, for a very slight in
crease in the record of crime, for extraor-
binary benefact.ons to colleges. churches,
charities, museums, and art galleries, and
for marked decrease in fire losses and
disasters.
The legislative history Of the country
does not contain many points Of general in
terest. In the first session of the Fifty
fourth congress the house passed bond and
revenue bills, each of which was changed
by the senate into free coinage measure.
The Cuban Situation.
The state department has been the scene
of unusual activity during the year. Ii has
given ex preston to the sym pathies of the
people with the Armenians and has vigil
lantiy guarded the interests of the mis-
sionaries and other Americans in Turkey
The Cuban revolution has occupied much
of the time OF the department as we'll as of
congress. Numerous resolutions were Of
fered in the latter body, and early in the
year a joint resolution passed both houses
recognizing Cuban belIigerency and re-
questing the president to use his friendly
offices with Spain. The latter paid no at
tention to the request, and issued procla-
nation of neutrality. The next important
step of congress was the report by the SEN
ate committee on foreign affairs of joint
resolution recognizing the independence
of the Cubans, to which Secretary Olney
has taken exceptions, declaring that the
administration of our foreign relations in
such a case as this rests exclusively with
the president. The consideration of this
joint resolution will be taken up immedi-
ately upon the reassembling of congress.
and meanwhile the air is full of rumors of
negotiations between the secretary of state
and the Spanish minister for the mediation
of this country. based upon promises of
Spain to concede certain measures of au-
tonomy to Cuba
Executive Appointments.
Among the executive appointments OF
the year are those of Justice Brewer, Judge
Alvey, Andrew J. White, Frederic r. Cou-
