EXCURSIONS.

A family excursion at reduced rates will
be given tomorrow to Colonial Beach on
the steamer Jane Moseley. The fare for
this occasion has been reduced to % cents
for the round trip. The excursion will
afford delightful opportunity Of taking
a trip of sixty-odd miles down the beauti-
full Potomac and a stay at Colonial Beach,
with all its pleasing attractions of three
or four hours. The steamer Moseley is
well appointed and is safe and fast. and
a ride down the river by means Of this boat
is doubly inviting.
Another very large crowd numbering
about 1.SOO persons, went to River View
yesterday. and most Of them remained over
until night to see the exhibition of the
cinematographe. which Captain Randall is
giving free of charge to the patrons of
mis- resort The dancing pavilion was used
as the place of exhibition, which was again
very successful. Two more exhibitions of
the cinematographe will be given this
week. on Saturday and Sunday nights.
New views will be shown on each night
Tonight. tomorrow night and Saturday
night the Manchester will make the trip
to Indian Head. This sail Is eminently
pc pular for summer nights outing, ais
1t affords more than four hours contin-
uous sailing-four hours of the coolest
comfort to be found anywhere around the
city. After hot and stuffy day in town,
the relaxation found in this river ride Is
particularly restful and agreeable. In or
der that all who care to may have the
benefit of the extra sail, the Manchester
will stop at Marshall Hall both going and
returning, and those who went down on
the early boats may make the Indian
Head trip without extra charge. Schroe-
der's Band contributes to the pleasure,
with all the latest music. Just now the
moonlight adds materially to the beauty
OF the river scenery. and the trip home is
thus made a very prominent feature of
the outing. The greatest convenience for
the gentlemen Imaginable is the barber
shop that has been installed on the boat.
The Manchester leaves, usual, at $50
pm.
Every Sunday during July and August
the River Queen will make an all-day trip
to Chapel Point. Leaving at 9:30 am,
a bout four hours sail takes you to the
Point. Here the best of grabbing, fishing
and bathing is to be had Dinner is pro-
durable eth er in the cafe on the boat
at the hotel on the grounds The breezes
are fresher and the air purer. it
is surrounded by salt water There are
rides and drives in great numbers that
may be taken, and opportunities are at
hand to spend 4 most pleasant day. These
trips of the River Queen are specially
during these two months Washington Is
reached at 9:30 pm. In view Of the at
fractions Of the trip and resort, large
crowds will undoubtedly patrontze the
steamer.

representative state Why Cuh0'0
Delligerency II Not Recognized.
At the meeting of the National Cuban
League, held last night at Confederate
Veterans Hail. there was a good attend
ance. and speeches were made by Represen-
tatives Cochran of Missouri, Fowler of
North Carolina and Clayton Of Alabama
Mr.. Cochran declared that II any of the
spirit Of 1776 was left in the high places in
this country there would have been long
ago decisive action on the Cuban question.
He thought anything that might be done on
the subject would be done at the desire of
the bondholders, and he said that II II was
true that the Rothschilds. as he had heard
II alleged many years, had more influence
than the government, he hoped the people
would see that 1t went no further if 1t had
wrecked the Cuban question.
Representative Fowler said the Speaker
had INSTRUCTED every effort of the Cuban
patriots in the House to get a Cuban reso-
luton passed. The Speaker was all power
full. and he thought the country should
call on him for an explanation of his atti-
tude. Mr.. Fowler declared that II the
Speakers obstruction was removed the
House would recognize the Cubans as bel
lfgerents within three DAYS
Representative Clayton said some subtle
and mysterious influences seemed to make
the President and the House of Represen-
tatives fearful of having trouble with
Spain. and he believed the stock and bond
gamblers had great deal to do with this
condition.
