WASHINGTON, Dec. 10. - Secretary
Gage has submitted to the department
of state his report upon the action of
the treasury department. in suppressing
6libustering expeditions to Cuba in vic.
lation of neutrality laws. a synopsis Of
which is as follows:
Secretary Gage puts out the fact that
during two years and a half six Ameri.
can vessels of an aggregate of 1881 reg

fully landed expeditions from the
United States in Cuba. With the OK.
ception Of the Laurada the six Ameri.
can vessels alleged to have successfully
taken part in expeditions in Cuban
waters are small tugs and a pilot boat,
each Of less than 100 tons and obviously
incapable of carrying large numbers Of
men or large quantities of arms and

Ii the United States government is not
justified in calling a halt upon Spanish
barbarity when five hundred thousand
practically innocent and helpless Cubans
have been outraged, tortured and massa-
cred, will it be any more justified in a
short time whan twice that number have
been SO treated? What is MIR. Nc
Kinley's measure of inhumanity, any
way? On the basis of such reasoning
when has the United States any right
to interfere at all? Nj. Mckinley should
state the limit in dollars and cents at
once at which he holds dear the lives of
these Cuban patriots. Perhaps there are
humanity-loving people enough in the
United States, or in n state, to pile up
the filthy lucre before his eyes to recon-
pense the commercial loss" be sees in
sparlng human life and putting an end
to human suffering on that ill-starred
island?

HIS WIFE MAY CONSENT.

In That Case Fitxsimmons VIII Probably
Give Corbett Another Chance
MILWAUKEE, Dec. 1O.-It is almost a
certainty now that Robert Fitzsimmons,
the present champion pugilist of the
world, and James J. Corbett, ex-cham.
pion, will meet in the roped arena to
again battle and decide the question
for all time. This fact was gained by
a representative of The Evening Wis
consin after an interview with Mrs.
~Fitzsimmons, who is in this city.
1t is the first time Mrs. Fitz.
simmons has given expression to
her thoughts in the matter since the af.
fair at Carson City last March. Before
the contest last March Fitzsimmons
promised his wife that he would never
enter the ring again without her
consent. While Mrs. Fitzsimmons
does not come out openly and
say there will be another battle, it can
be readily seen that she is not anxious
to put q block in the way of her hus.
band as regards his plans for the future.
In reply to a question put by The Even
ing Wisconsin reporter whether she
would give that consent Mrs. Fitzsim.
mons replied:
"Well, really, that is a difficult ques-
ton to answer, but I will say that I do
not care to stand in my husbands way,
and it he thinks it better to give Cor.
bett another chance, I may change my
mind, but until I do there is no pros
pect whatever of the two men meeting,
and all this talk about matches being
arranged, etc., is without the slightest
foundation"
