Cuba is Lost to snain.

A special correspondent at Havana
declares that Cuba is lost to Spain. He
says that resident Spauiards confess
they can see no other outcome. In
fact, evidences that Cuba may in the
end be freed by Spanish residents
themselves are many and strong. The
calmcst minds there predict the end of
Spanish rule within year. The prop
osition of President Cisneros and Gen.
Gomez sent through Mr.. Scovel, TO buy
the island. is rapidly growing in popu-
larity. It's warmest advocates are
Spanish residents. They are the act
i've, financial and business men of the
island, the owners of eight-tenths OF
its wealth and its sources of wealth.
On them the loss of the war has fallen
most heavily. Few Cubans had any
thing TO lose.
The merchants, money changers,
spectators, exporters and planters,
are beginning to realize that Cuba is
lost Once let these men be convinced
that Spain cannot end the struggle
within reasonable time and they will
use their influence to bring about a
sale and will help the Cubans to estab-
lish n republic.
The Spanish element is condemning
with more and more emphasis the
fruitless, exhausting policy of Gen.
Wcyler They see his idea of pacifica-
ton is depopulation; his plan for peace
devastation. 1t is well understood
that many thousands of troops will
soon be Withdrawn from Cuba for SER
vice in the PHILIPPINES, meanwhile
the rebels are stronger than ever be-
fore. They are triumphant over Gen.
Weyler in Santa Clara province and
feel certain of victory as he can only
sustain the fight until the rainy season.
The insurgents have captured Hol-
quin. in Santiago de Cuba. The town
is "A very important one and the news
OF its loss has east great gloom over
official circles 1t is reported that the
victorious insurgent forces were those
under the command of Calixto Garcia,
who has been operating with great
vigor in eastern Cuba.
A train carrying Spanish troops was
blown up by dynamite while passing
over deep gorge south of Candelaria,
Pinar del Rio province, and nearly $50
soldiers were killed or injured The
locomotive and six cars were demol-
ished, and 300 soldiers, including Is
officers, were made prisoners.

The Senate refused TO pass the bill
permitting the practice of osteopathy
in Michigan, and owing TO the lack of
n quorum devoted their time to the
consideration of bills in the committee
of the whole. The House passed the
following: (H. Il. 77s) Allowing the viii
lage of Yale to borrow money and is
sue bonds for water works; (H. Il. 1867
providing for the annual publication of
the proceedings of the boards OF edu-
cation or school trustees in graded
school districts, also, an itemized state
ment of receipts and expenditures for

ton of temperance volunteer associa-
tons; Oh. Ii. 500 amending the pure

sion OF substitute articles of food with

The approaching spring election
takes all the interest out of the legis-
lative proceedings. The record of the
accomplishments of one days session
consists of two bills of minor import
arce passed by the Senate, and six or
eight measures agree to in committee
of the whole of each branch. The
most interesting occurrence in the
House was the killing of Rep. O'Dett's
bill providing that no county or town
ship officer should be eligible to more
than two consecutive terms of Office.
The House committee on education
has reported favorably on the bill APP
propriating $4,000 for the mainten-

only where there is question as to
the merits of the bill.

shot and Killed His Son.

VIM. Holz, Jr., aged 81, of 374 Cath
crime street, Detroit was shot and
killed by his father in the presence of
four of his brothers. The bullet struck
the young man just under the left eye
and penetrated the brain, and he died
shortly after the physicians arrived.
The shooting was done with small
bers, and was the result of series of
family quarrels in which the elder
Hclz charged his son with incest with
his own mother. The family say the
father was extremely jealous and had
made this awful charge against each
of his three grown sons. They think
he was insane on the subject.
