The floor was yielded to Mr.. VOL
colt (Col), chairman of the committee
on postoftices and post roads, as he de-
sired to make statement. He made
remarkable and caustic arraignment
of the secretary of the treasury, on
account of the secretry's f1ippant treat
ment of a request made by Mr.. VOL
cott's committee. Mr.. Wo1cott said
that on March 10, the committee on
postoffices and post roads had asked
the secretary of treasury for his opin-
ion upon postal savings bank sys-
tenn. A similar communication had
been sent to the postmaster general
and courteous and extended reply in
due time had been received. The
views of the secretary of the treasury
upon the question were particularly
desired by the committee, as it was
expected that some opinions of value
would be presented.
After waiting for an unusupl time
the committee, Mr.. Wolcott said, had
received the secretary's reply. 81
have to report to the senate" said he,
"that the reply was of such nature
that 1 have been unanimously in
structed by the committee to respect
fully return it. Before it was sent to
the committee it was given to the
newspapers. 1t was not of a charac-
ter in consonance with the importance
of the subject. The whole circum
stances of the case are most remarka.
bic. I will not ask to have the letter
of the secretary read. 1t was f1ippant
and impertinent and has no place on
the records of this body"
Mr.. Wolcoat then asked that the en-.
tire correspondence on the subject be
printed, and it was so ordered.

a nation as well as an individual into
danger. A neighbor must sometime
incur danger for a neighbor, and a
friend for friend.
War is terrible thing and can not
be defended except as a means to an
end, and yet, it is sometimes the only
means by which necessary end can
be secured. The state Furnishes its
own citizens by imprisonment, or even
death, when counsel and persuas sion
fail. War is the "a -bitrator be-
tween nations when reason and diplo-
macy are of no avail.
"Spain might not resist interven-
ton; IT is to be hoped that she would
recognize the right of the United
States to act and Immediately with
draw from Cuba but whether she re-
sents Intervention or not the United
States must perform plain duty.
"Our own interests justify interven-
ton. Spain has governed Cuba so
badly as to excite continuous revolt,
and after exciting revolt has shown
herself powerless to restore order and
enforce law upon the island.
'Spanish rule in Cuba has disturbed
the United States, interfered with
business, increased the expense of
guarding our shores, and drawn upon
the resources of our people to care tor
those made destitute by the war.
1--WE have as much right to demand
the cessation of war in the interest of
the people of the United States as
Spain to demand its continuance for
her own benefit.
eff the question is to be settled upon
the basis of human rights, surely our
people have waited long enough; if, on
the other hand, pecuniary interests
are to be considered then it must be
remembered that the loss suffered by
the United States and Cuba together,
far exceeds any gain which Spain
could reasonably expect to secure even
if she had hope of recovering Cuba
by force of arms.
"Spain has only herself to blame for
the condition of affairs in Cuba. If
she denies to her former subjects the
rights of war and calls the Cuban
army a mob, let her remember the
words of Victor Hugo: The mob is
the human race in misery No nation
can afford to make it's people miser-
able.
"1f the Cubans prefer death to Span
ish rule it must be Spanish rule has
robbed life of joy and hope. If ma
ton sows the wind it must reap the
whir1wind."

Friday night, shortly aft supper,
Eta Copton, aged about 20, commit
ted suicide by taking strychnine in
one of the rooms of the Fifth Avenue
hotel at Emporia. Disappointment in
obtaining work and dependency were
the cause of the act. She had been
accused of taking a shirt waiste from
a house where she was employed, and
as the waist was found in her posses
sion it is thought, from the following
pathetic letter, that the matter preyed
on her mind until she determined to end
her life: t'Dear Mother:-I am inno-
cent of ever doing wrong. Some peo-
pie think have but God knows / have
always tried to do right. There is no
room in this world for me, so must
leave it. / have tried so hard to live
for your sake, put can not find hon.
est work to support me in the way
would like to live, and will not take
help from my friends. / have always
tried to live Christian life and will
die before will live dishonest. God
knows am Innocent of any wrong
have tried to bear the burden of life
but it is getting too great. People
will say that it is pity, but will be
better off. Don't weep for me but
meet me in Heaven. God will forgivs
me for leaving a place where 1 car
not bear to live. I remain your Low
ing daughter.
"ETTA CLoProS, to her mother.
Good by forever"

Washington, April Sit is stated
on high authority that the reply of
Spain does not contain any PROPOSE
ton which contemplates the indepen-
dence of Cuba.
1t can be reiterated authoratively
that the fastest dispatch from Madrid
was thoroughly unsatisfactory to the
administration. Its dissatisfaction
was openly unnouuced during several
of the conferences that took place dur
ing the morning hours. The note was
received late, and after it had been read
by the President and Judge Day an
effort was made to communicate with
several other members of the cabinet.
In view of the grave significance of
the dispatch, it was considered very
deliberately and the reply of this gov
ernment deferred until the President
could consult with the members of his
official family of advisers.
That the President has less conf
dence in a peacea bic ultimate out
come was apparent from the views he
expressed to several of his closest
trieuds.

THE EARTH QUAKES
Severe Shocks Felt in North
ern California.
Heavy Damages Done Government
Navy Yard at Mare Island, and other
Points,

"There shall be wars and rumors of
wars, and the earth shall tremble in
its balance" That this prediction is
now being verified is self-evideut.
AT about midnight of the 31st, San
Francisco and part of the state of Cal
ifornia, were shaken by one of the
most severe earthquakes ever expert
enced in California. In San Francis
CO buildings were swayed violently for
fully ten seconds. Reports from other
places are that the vibrations contin-
ued from forty sec onds to minute.
A tenement house on Clementina
street between Fifth and Sixth streets
collapsed, but no one was seriously
injured. Nearly every window of
the Strathmore apartment house on
Larkin street, opposite the new city
from the walls and pictures and orna-
ment were thrown to the floors. The
building on Larkin street near Meal
lister, formerly occupied by the SUI
preme court, was slightly damaged
and its chimneys fell to the pavement.
AT the Office of the Associated Press
telegraphic communication was inter
rupted for twenty minutes. The
earthquake caused the same condition
of affairs at the Western Union and
Postal Telegraph offices. A lamp
was upset in a house on Third street
and a blaze was started, but it was
soon extinguished.
| The guests of all the hotels and
| lodging houses, many of whom had no
| idea of the cause of the trembling of
the buildings, were intensely excited
and rushed from their rooms without
waiting to dress. AT midnight the
downtown streets were thronged with
| men, women and children. No one
was injured so far as the hospital
authorities know.
The shock was felt throughout a
large part of the state, but very meag-
er reports have as yet been received,
owing to the demora1ized state of the
wires. At the San Quentin peneten-
tiary some of the guards thought the
prisoners had exploded a dynamite
mine. The waters of San Francisco
bay rose in wave two feet high, but
almost Immediately subsidized.
Mare Island, CAL, March 31.-Tht
Earthquake was very severe here, do
ing damage estimated at $4,000. The
saw mill collapsed and lies complets

several shops were badly injured. TIL,
navy yard employees were reused from
their beds and made hasty inspec
tion of the grounds and the war ships

Lincoln, Neb., April 4.-W. J. Bryan
has made the following statement for
the Associated Press in answer to the
question whether in his judgment the
time had arrived for the United States
to intervene in behalf of Cuba and
bring the war to an end:
eyes, the time for Intervention has
arrived. Humanity demands that we
shall act. Cuba lies almost within
sight of onr shores and the sufferings
of her people can not be ignored unless

United States to purchase the Danish
West India islands of St. Croix and

The purchase is to be made upon

EDITOR BRANN SHOT.
The IcOnOclast Editor And Captain
Davis Quarrel.


Waco, Tex, April 3.-Editor Brann
of the Iconoc1ast and Capt. NJ. T.
Davis met on the street Friday and,
after quarrelling a few minutes, both
drew revolvers and began to shoot.
When the shooting was over, Brann
was found to be perforated in the lett
lung, the left leg and the right foot.
Davis was shot through the right lung
and through both of his arms. The
surgeons say both men are likely to
die.
The difficulty between the two men
grew out of the Brann-Baylor feud of
last year.
The shooting was the result of an
old fued growing out of the Brann-
Baylor matter.
The reporter visited Brann since he
was shot. He was at home on a couch
surrounded by surgeons, his intellect
ual face as white as snow. His wife
and many friends were with him. He
is too weak to talk and is probably
past surgery although the doctors say
there is some slight chance for his
recovery.
Captain Tom Davis was taken to
Pacific hotel and is regarded as NOR.
tally wounded, his right lung being
cruelty 1acerated. Both men are
bleeding internally and are faint.
AT late hour both men were alive
but appeared to be sinking.
LATER.-Brann died of his injuries.
