APPEAL FROM CISNEROS.

Cuban President Said to Have Sent a Let
ter to Mckinley.
CHICAGO, April 2.-The Inter Ocean
has printed an open letter which Cis-
neros, president of the Cuban republic,
has sent to President Mckinley. The
letter, which is of great length, appeals
to the president Of the United States in
the "name of God and of my people" 70
extend early consideration to what is
known in the United States as 1.-The
Cuban question.
Cisneros then gives details of the
growth of the revolutionary cause
throughout the island, the establish
ment Of various departments of gov
ernment, by which the insurgents col
lect taxes, maintain armies and carry
mails, as arguments to show that a
regular government exists. An i'm.
portant feature Of the civil govern
ment, according to President Cisneros,
has been the establishment Of schools
and the issuing of books. In conclud.
ing his appeal he says: "The struggle
may go ON for years, and Cuba may
continue to fight the battle against the
most fearful odds alone, but so long as
there is God to give US courage we
will cling to the banner of right and
freedom, and never falter until the vic.
, tory is won.'

THE WYOMING STORM.

fhere Has Been Great Loss OF Stock and
Probably Some OF Human Life.
LARAMIE, Wy, April 2.-The most
severe snow storm i'll 20 years passed
over this section, doing immense
damage to cattle and sheep. Business
here is practically suspended, and even
the daily papers were not issued On
the main streets the snow in places is
10 feet high, ~hile residences on the
outskirts of the city are in some in
stances completely buried by drifts.
Several buildings collapsed in conse.
quence of the weight Of the snow,
which covered their roofs.
Fears are entertained for the safety
of several hunting parties in this Sec
tion. Sheep are scattered all over the
plains. and it is expected the loss will
reach into the thousands. Several
herders reached town, having deserted
their herds and only with the greatest
difficulty escaping from being frozen to
death. ). It is feared that the driver OF
the North park stage has perished'
although there is chance that ne
made some ranch before the storm
reached the height Of its fury.
The latest reports along the line OF
the Union Pacific say that the storm
has apparantlv expended. its force.

anti-traffic contract clause Of the Sher-
man antitrust law, and gives the rail-
road companies the privilege of making
such traffic contracts under the super
vision of the interstate commerce com.
mission. Eastern railroad men believe
that the legalization of railway pooling
would have a better effect on the gen.
eral situation than a supreme court de-
cision in favor of the Joint Traffic as
sociation. Even the assurance Of the
legality of the last named association
would not help the western roads, for
the reason that the first supreme court
decision killed their principal traffic
agreement.

Said to Have Sent an Appeal
to the President.

NEW YORK, April a. The Times
says: Although the Eastern trunk
lines and their Western connections
will continue to operate under the joint
traffic agreement until compelled to
cease from so doing by an adverse de-
cision of the United States supreme
court, the railroad men, without ex-
ception, are preparing for a vigorous
campaign with regard to pooling law
by congress. Chauncey M. Depew,
chairman of the joint traffic board OF
control, says that in a proper pooling
law lies the only solution of existing
railroad troubles.
The bill introduced by Senator For
aker, he remarked, was designed to
enable railroad companies to make nec-
essary traffic agreements and keep out
of Jail.
One result of the recent conference
of railroad lawyers was to represent
the unanimity of sentiment in favor Of
legislation that will legalize pooling.
The presidents of some of the trunk
lines frankly avow their willingness to
have the joint traffic association de-
clared illegal by the supreme court, be-
cause they believe that the conditions
thus precipitated would force congress
to pass remedial measures without de-
lay.
Foraker Bill Satisfactory.

NEW YORK, April "A Havana
special to The World says: General
Rivera will probably be shot soon, as
General Weyler has given orders that
he be tried by court.martial
Immediately. He may be put to death
on Saturday, in spite of his wounds, or
the Spanish may cure him and then
shoot him.
The certain execution of this brave,
wounded prisoner of war excites indig-
nation and disgust here. No other civ
ilized nation is capable Of such an act.
Colonel Bacallac, who tried to carry
off his wounded commander on his
back, although wounded himself, will
die with him. 1t is predicted that
these executions will provoke General
Gomez to shoot all Spanish prisoners
hereafter instead of releasing them.
The Cubans are not disheartened at
the loss of General Rivera. They say
General Roloff is in Pinar del Rio, and
will soon become second in command
, of the whole army.
Insurgents Are Rallying.
Insurgents in great numbers are COM
ing from the east and concentrating in
Havana province. They have plenty
Of ammunition and good cavalry.

mounted, we'll armed insurgents pass
ing west toward MaSanzas
This same courier says very large
expedition has landed near Remedies,
and that most of the arms are for the
western provinces.
General Weyler remains in Cienfue-

doing nothing effective.

colleague of Mr.. Crosby, the CORE.

while the inclosed space, bordered with cocoa
