would not apply, however, to persons
engaged in active hostilities and taken
with arms in their hands. MIR. Sher-
man is also proposing to negotiate a
treaty with Spain by which the rights
of naturalized citizens shall be defined.
1t is evident that the policy of the new

His Release the Result OF Vigorous
lrotest From the United States.
HAVANA, March II. - The Santa
Clara court having jurisdiction of the
charges against Sylvester Scovel, the
New York World correspondent who
was arrested in the early part of Feb
ruary while travelling in a train be-
tween Tunas and Sancti Spiritus, has
rendered decision releasing him from
custody. Mr.. Scovel is now at lib
erty.
NEW YORK, March lO.-A Washing
ton special to The World says: Syl-
vester Scovels release from Sancti
Spiritus Jail was only effected after it
was made known to the Spanish gov
ernment, through the minister here
that if any harm befell him the United
States would take prompt measures for
redress. The continued confinement in
Jail was also made the subject of vigor-
Gus protest and the case was presented
so strongly to Senor de Lone that that
astute diplomat promptly cabled to the
captain general of Cuba recommending
Mr. ScovePs release.

ritories, that Senator HansbrOugh
will go to public lands, and

vacancies ON the finance committee
occasioned by the retirement Of Sena-
tors Sherman and Voorhees, will be
filed by the appointment of gold Re-
publican to succeed Sherman and a
