LIMITED HOME RULE
Proposed Cuban Reforms Re
ceives Royal Sanction.
THE QUEEN REGENT SIGNS IT
The Reforms Consist I'm the Creation of
An Assembly to BE Called the
Council Of Administration.

Madrid, Feb. S.-The queen regent
signed plan for reforms in Cuba. The
scheme includes numerous and elab-
crate decrees and will occupy several
pages of the official gazette.
The reforms consist chiefly in the
creation of an assembly to be called
the council of administration, COM
posed of thirty-fve members, of whom
twenty-one are to be elected by the peo-
pie and six by different corporations.
The remainder will be one magistrate,
one university professor, one archbishop
and five former senators or deputies.
The council of administration is en-
powered, firstly, to prepare budgeti-
secondly, to examine into the fitness of
officials appointed; third, they make
may tariff, subject TO the condition
that Spanish imports will have the ad-
vantage over the general tariff.
The encouragement will represent
the home government, and have the
right to nominate officials who shall be
Cubans, or Spanish who have resided
two years in Cuba. Nevertheless he
may freely nominate high function
aries, such as magistrates, projects, etc.
Other DEGREES concern the organiza-
tion OF provisional municipalities which
are to be literally representative. The
municipal councils in general will be
empowered to elect their president and
have exclusive control Of the public
education.
According to another decree the gov
ernment reserves to itself extraordi-
nary powers in the event of any dis
turbance of the public order, and Cuba
will continue to elect senators and dep
uties to the cortes as at present.
Altogether the reforms are much
broader in the direction of decontraliza-
tion than those granted to Porto Rico.
The powers of the governor general are
much extended, while the council of
administration is fairly representative
OF all parties and interests. The Span
ish government will continue to vote
the budgets and treaties for the col-
onies. Spanish products, according to
the reform scheme, will be allowed a
rebate of 40 per cent of the Cuban tariR
compared with other imports.

OPPOSING THE CANAL.
Senator Villas Puts In the Third Day OF
His Nicaragua speech.

Washington, Feb. 5.-After brief
parliamentary struggle in the senate
late this afternoon, the friends OF the
Nicaragua canal bill were unable to
hold a quorum and sit out the obstruc-
tion to that measure.
The senate agreed to the house reso-
luton fixing February ~ FOR the cere-
mony of counting the vote for president
and vice president before the lYp houses
of congress. Although defeated for re-
election, Senator Dubois, of Idaho, was
welcomed back to the senate today with
marked cordiality, and with an abund-
anee of floral tributes. His desk was
literally overwhelmed with flowers,
while tables, chairs and adjoining
desks were brought into use to support
the many unique devices into which
the roses and violets had been wrought.
A great cluster of violets was tied with
ribbon bearing in silver 1900"
The main design, rising eight feet from
the floor, was an arch, the pillars being
white roses and the capstone of immor-
telles, bearing the word "Honor"

WILL NOT REACH A VOTE.
Arbitration Treaty to Go Over 20 Next
Session of Congress.

Arbitration Treaty to Go Over TO Next
Session of Congress.
Chicago Feb. S.--A Times Herald
special from Washington says:
The understanding among senators at
present is that the general arbitration
treaty will come to a vote at this ses-
sion of congress. No one doubts that
it will be debated, but the opposition
makes no secret of its intention to con-
sumo so much time in discussion that
a vote cannot be reached.
1t will be an easy matter to do this,
as the business of the senate is fast
reaching that stage in which there will
be great struggle for precedence.
Already the friends of the Nicaragua
canal bill, the immigration bill, the
bankruptcy bill and other measures
are fighting for time. In short time
the regular appropriation bills will
have to be taken up and they will dis
place almost all other business. Under
such circumstances it will be compara-
tlvely easy to crowd the treaty into the
background. The sentiment of the sem
ate is generally against an open debate
on the treaty.

Editor Thorp Pound Dead.

Cottage Grove, Or, Feb. 5.-This
morning about o'clock, E. P. Thorp,
editor of the Cottage Grove Leader, was
found lying dead, face down in pool
of water a quarter of mile east of this
place. A doctor who arrived at the
place soon after said Thorp was stricken
with severe attack of apoplexy.
Thorp suffered considerably for some
time, both physically and mentally.
Last year he bonded about fifty acres of
land, put it out in fruit trees, but was
unable to meet his obligations, and the
property reverted back to its original
owner. He was a member of the Cum
berland Presbyterian church, and be-
longed to the Masonic order, by which
he will be buried tomorrow Mr.
Thorp was in the newspaper business
about twenty five years. He was about
30 years old. He left a daughter at

Salt Lake, Feb. Sire last night
destroyed the Scott-Auerbach building,
on Main street, entailing loss of
1880, 900, little over half covered by
inst trance. Besides the great financial
loss, there were several accidents that
narrowly escaped being fatalities. Elec-
tric1an Vail, of the fire department,
came in contact with live wire and
fell from the third story window OF the
uilding, but fortunately came in con-
tact with network of wires, which
brok ke his fall, and though he dropped
to the pavement with fearful violence,
it was with lessened force Miss
Smith, a roomer in the building, was
rescued by Assistant Chief Donovan
from the roof, whittier she had been
driven by the pursuing smoke.
