MR.. HALES SUGGESTION.
He breaches a Little Parable to Amer
lean Women.


| should like to ask. says Edward
Everett Hale, some lady who is con-
frcnted by the domestic service problem
what would happen to her if she should
drop down from a balloon in Trebizond
tomorrow morning, with two doughnuts
in her pocket and a bit of cheese, and
with nothing else to eat. | should like
to ask how she would regard some
Princess Of Trebizond who stepped out
OF a door, and said to Aer by signs.
My dear American friend, if You will
come into my house and wash my chill
dren and put on their clothes in the
morning and take them off at night,
and if you will wash the tea things for
me, | will teach you to speak the Ar
menian language, and will give you a
comfortable home" tie frank, ma
dame, and say, would not you regard
this person as sort of angel of God,
and would not you know tha. the Chris
tian religion had had something to do
with her training? In point of fact,
she would be doing unto you as she
would be glad to have you do unto her
Now, as it would say in Phaedrus, you
have to turn this little parable round
the other way. Here is this identical
Armenian woman. She is on the sea
al this moment, and very se1-s.ck. She
will land in Boston within ten days
Is 1t not in you to say to her: My
dear sister you cannot understand a
word | say in this language, but all
the same | VIII take you into my
house for the next six months. l will
teach you the English language; and
YOU shall take care of Maud and Fred
erick and Polly and Dolly, ana YOU
shall wash up the table things and, IN
general. make yourself OF use in the
family, while | am teaching you Eng
nish better, Remember, If adopting
lisu, And next May YOU will be able

points OF international law involved
and closed as follows: These things
the United Stnues can constituti0nally
and lawfully 90. Let us do them
now. Let US dispatch the mightiest
battleship OF the United States TO
Cuba. Let US station her in the liar-
Dor Of Havana. There her frowning
guns may disturb the spirit OF tyranny
and by night and by day her shining
stars may cheer the hearts OF those
who are struggling to be free,
While Mr., Thurstou spoke the gal
leries filled 20 oyerflowng. Mr.. Ell
kins CIV. Va.) followed in d speech
urging that the senate should not act
precipitately, but should await the in
quirles now being made by the officials
Of the government. Mr.. White (Cal.)
opposed the resolution and was led
into several lively and amusing ex-
changes with Mr. Chandler. He al
sued that recognition was purely an
executive function. Nj. Hawley spoke
briefly for conservative and cautious
action at a time OF serious emergency.
At the close OF his speech the voting
began. Mir. Hales motion to refer was
defeated by vote of 10 to "a.
1t seemed likely that a final vote
would be taken at once but Mr. Fair
banks took the floor for his first
speech IN the senate. He opposed the
Morgan resolution and offered
a substitute. 1t provided for
intervention by this government
tor Cuban independence. AFR.
Morgan moved to lay the Fair
banks substitute on the table. The
substitute met the same fate as the
Hale motion, 50 TO 10. Mr.. Hale made
speech against the Morgan rcsOlu-
ton. He expressed the fear also that
the resolution would lead to war with
Spain. Mr.. Gallinger favored il, while
Mr. Spooner spoke in opposition to
the Iesoiution on the ground that its
adoption would be an infringement
on the presidents prerogative. He
ccntended that recognition of belliger-
ency had been recognized as IN eX-
clusively executive function since the
hbSS VI w lllSiOu anu IUdI lntlG
was no occasion at this late day to
make change. There was no reason
to doubt President McKinley's loya., y
TO the republican platform nor his
love of independence. Mr. Spooner
argued from constitutional stand
point on the prerogative Of the execu-
tive in diplomatic questions and also
explained the meaning of recognition
Mr.. German closed the debate re-
senting the suggestion that party lines
were drawn on the resolution, and as
sorting that the administration should
have dispatched a war vessel to Cuba
to protect our officials on the is and.
He did not believe that the passage
OF the resolution would involve the
United States in a war with Spain.
Then came the final vote. When
the presiding officer announced the
passage o. the resolution the pent -up
feelings Of the spectators found ex-
preston in noisy and long -continued
demonstration. The senate then adj
jdurned until Monday.

AM erican citizens in Cuba ana lOr
their transportation from Cuba If they
desire to leave the island. The Nor
gan resolution recognizing the be,lig-
erency of the insurgents was taken up,
and Mr.. Wellington OF Maryland made
vigorous speech against It. Mr.
Daniel OF Virginia spoke at length in
reply 70 Mr. Wellington and ia favor
OF the resolution.
In the house the passage Of a reso-
utiGn for the relief oi American c!ti-
zons in Cuba was prevented by M
Bailey, the democratic leader who in
sisted that the resolution making an
appropriation for this purpose should
also contain a provision for the recog-
milton of the belligerency of the Cuban
insurgents. The house adjourned
until Thursday
Washington, May 1S.-Cuba again
occupied the time of the senate and
evoked two notable speeches, by M
Mason of Illinois in favor Of the Nor
gan resolution and Mr.. Hoar of Mas
sachusetts in opposition to it, Sen
ators Gallinger and Hawley also spoke
Re former for the resolution The

es were made by Messrs, Foraker, Can
non (Utah,) Lindsay (Ky) and lIoar

tered the senate, and in addition to
this the Ohio senator is on the Cuba
Subcommittee on foreign relations.

tee, but also on the general question
he declared his purpose of supporting
the resolution recognizing cuban bel
ligerency when it should be reported
by the committee. Mr. Cannon Was
bitter in his denunciation Of the Span
ish atrocities, characteri2ing the cap
tain general Of Cuba as that mad
dog, Weyler' Mr. Lindsay declared
that If the information furnished by
the United States consuls was so
shocking as to subject them to the
danger Of assassination if their names
We're disclosed. it was time 70 send
warships TO Cuba and terminate all
diplomatic relations with that country.
Mr., Hoar replied to Mr. Foraker con-
tending that the senate should have
authoritative facts set forth like the
judicial finding of a court in an official
report.
