a brief speech. in which he quoted sew
eraI utterances of Mr.. GrosvenOr to
show that the Buckeye statesman had
shifted his position. He first quoted
from one of Mr.. GrosvenorS speeches of
a week ago, in which he declared that
the administration would. when the
time came for action, be for independ-
ence and armed Intervention; two days
later, he said in an interview, inde-
pendence without armed Intervention,
and now he said armed Intervention
without independence.
Mr.. Grosvenor caused some merri-
ment on the Democratic side when he
said the statements quoted were SUBJ
stantially in the same direction.
WAR OF THE PEOPLE.
Then, turning his attention TO some
of Mr. Grosvenor's remarks. Mr.. Bailey
Indignantly repealed the idea that if
war came it was 10 be a Republican
war. 1T would be war of the people
of the United States against Spanish
tyranny on III island of Cuba" said he,
amid tumultuous applause.
After some further debate on the bill,
Mr.. HulPs motion 10 strike out all but
the first two sections was carried.
The bill then carried, 150-60.
The house then, at $3.50. adjourned

THE PARIS DECLARATION.
Spain Will Not Exercise the Right
to Search Neutral Ships.

New York. April President Nc
hinley's message is awaited here with
deep interest, says the London CORE
spondent OF the World. 1t is learned
from a trustworthy source that while
the political situation was discussed
in diplomatic circles today, and Mr.
BalfoUr expressed the strong desire of
the British government that peace be
maintained, no definite suggestion was
made with that object.
The principal erraEd of Ambassador
Hay to the foreign Office Wednesday
was to exchange views on the subject
OF the position of the United States
with reference TO the declaration of
Paris. AS neither the United States
nor Spain signed that instrument, ser
ious questions might arise if either
should exercise the right OF search on
neutral ships.
It is understood That England, hav-
Ing received an assurance from Spain
that she would not exercise that right,
has approached the United States with
4 suggestion that she follow SPANS
example. The matter has not been
settled definitely.
