either the cruiser Montgomery or the gun
boat Nashville for the transportation of
supplies. These warships are SO cut up
with small compartments below, and so
filled with machinery that their freight
carrying capacity is limited practically to
little space on the upper decks.
But, as before stated, q definite decls-
ion has not yet been reached as to which
ship or ships will be sent. Secretary
Long calculates that the supplies which
left New York Saturday by steamer for
Key West will reach the latter port
Wednesday, giving ample time in the in
term to make q selection as between the
vessels. He said further that it would
probably be left to Admiral Sicard, the
cOmmander-inchiefo of the squadron, to
choose the vessel which could best be
spared. No attempt is made to deny that
the attitude of the Spanish government
towards the entry of the warships into
Cuban ports may be full of significance
and lead in the end to trouble.
1t is realized that if it is conceded that
vessels of the United States navy may be
in times OF peace excluded from Matanzas
or Sagua, by the same rule they likewise
may be kept out of Havana harbor, and
the administration would thereby not only
be prevented from redeeming it's promise
to send another warship to Havana to re-
place the Maine, but would be obliged to
leave American citizens resident in Ha-
vana entirely without protection in case
of need. This possibility is not contem-
plated with eQuanimity by the admins
tration, hence it may be fully expected
that the officials will stick to their techni-
cal purpose to use "a naval vessel for
the transportation of supplies.

SPAIN GOT THE SHIPS.
The Report of the Sale Of Two
Cruisers by the Armstrong;
is Confirmed.

London, March 5.-Further inquiries
made on the subject confirm the report
cabled yesterday of the sale of the two
cruisers which the Armstrong; have been
building for Brazil to Spain. The inqui-
ries further show that a representative of
the CHILEAN government has been negOtiat-
ing with a representative of the Spanish
government for the sale of the battleship
O'Higgins built by the Armstrong; for
Chill and it is believed that q deal is
practically completed whereby this splen-
did warship passed into SPANS posses
sior.
1t is known that the CHILEAN representa-
tire made a definite offer to Spain recent
ly, but the price was considered too high
and Spain made a counter offer. 1t is
now understood that they have come to
terms.
The ships which Spain secured in
France are two heavily armOred coast
defense vessels which Brazil ordered for
service on the river Platte, which have
been building at the La Seyne works at
Eavre.
The statement made in Washington
that the Amazonius. one of the vessels
Spain has purchased from Brazil, has al
ready left this country for Brazil, is in
correct She is still at the Armstrong

Havana. March Gen. Fitzhugh Lee,
consul-general of the United States, when
questioned today regarding SPANS de-
mand for his recall, said: q shall con-
tinue to do my duty, which is to guard
American interests"
"F'itzhugh Lee, my son, came to visit
me during the short vacation granted him
by the Chesapeake & Ohio railroad. He
was here before, has many friends here
and will return to the United States
when his vacation is over next week.

centradoes. taking these supplies direct

Technically, the Fern is Il war vessel

which is used for saluting.

people who seem to desire war with the
United States. Spain is doing every
thing in the way of preparing for conflict,
and | believe that it will certainly take
place. If the indemnity is refused, as |
think 1T will be. war must follow.
But altogether aside from the ques
ton affecting the destruction of the
Maine, there is the awful and inhuman
process now going on in Cuba Of exter-
minating the inha bitants by starvation.
The Spaniards. in Cuba numbered at the
last census only an eighth of the popula-
ton. According to private and official re-
ports that have come into my possession
more than twice that number of people
have already been starved to death in
Cuba.
president Cleveland and President
Mckinley both gave notice that the time
would come when this country would be
forced to intervene to stop the war unless
Spain stopped it. There is less Droba-
bllity at the present of Spain ending the
war than at any time previous since it
began
Can our government longer delay in
terventiOn and permit the continuance of
the most mOnStrous crime of modern times
the wholesale starvation of the people
without running the risk Of being practi-
cally wiped out of existence at the COM
ing congressional election and receiving
the seal Of the condemnation of the Amer
lean people?
Intervention cannot much longer be de-
layed. Spain will do nothing and can
do nothing, from the temper of her peo-
pie, except to continue on as she has been
doing. We cannot permit her much Ion
ger to continue in that way. | can see no
way out of it excepting in a war. and /
believe that it will certainly follow.
There are certain commercial interests
opposed to such war, but the pledges of
our party, the pledges OF two Presidents,
Cleveland and Mckinley, and the inter-
ests of humanity, require that we should
intervene. The spirit of the American
people would sweep away the mere ques-
ton of dollars and cents that stands in the
way of such intervention. l do not re-
gard war with Spain as one of any
great consequence. | believe that it
would end in a very short time: but
whether or not that be the case the honor
of the American people demands and re-
qulres such an intervention.
Il firmly believe that President Nc
Kinley is thoroughly in sympathy with
this feeling. as he has shown by the words
he has spoken on this Cuban question
and that intervention will follow We
shall wait for the report of the board of
inquiry, and then nothing can hold back
Congress. That is my opinion, and
think you will find it the very general
opinion among the Republican senators"

SOLD MINES TO SPAIN.
Statement Made by a Man in Lon
don-Name Forwarded to
Washington.

London, March 5.-According to the
statement of a man whose cards describe
him as being an electrical engineer, whose
name cannot be disclosed, but has been
forwarded to Washington, he sold to
Spanish officers in London, several years
ago a large number Of mines, eight or
ten of which were placed in Havana har-
Dor.
He says they were made IN a special way
and had a specially and peculiarly con-
structed cable, which he contends he can
positively identify if the smallest piece is
produced.
Some Of the mines, the man continues,
were fixed SO they could be fired from a
fort, and two of them had bulbs, ar
ranged so that they would explode upon a
vessel coming in contact with them.
But. the alleged electrical engineer,
adds that he does not believe the bulbs
would be used in water as shallow as that
of Havana harbor.
He exhibited the plans of one of these
mines which, he pointed out, was the
most likely to produce the effect de-
scribed as causing the wreck of the
Maine. 1t was numbered 500 and was
constructed to contain 500 pounds of gun
cotton.
This is the story told by the man who
gives one the impression that he has been
sergeant of engineers, or has held some
similar position. He was apparently thor
oughly posted upon electrical matters and
submarine mines.
The man who made the foregoing state
Ments is an Englishman and he says he is
willing to go to the United States as a
witness

SPAIN BACKS DOWN.
WlthdraWS Implied Request for the
Recall Of ConSul-Gen-
eral Lee.

Washington, D. c.. March Spain
has withdrawn her request for the recall
Of Consul-General Lee, and it is now be-
lieved that the incident is practically
closed.
The withdrawal came today in the
shape of an official communication from
Minister Woodford.
1t is now stated that the request was
never put in the shape of a Demand but
that it was merely a suggestion on the
part of Spain, and when she found that
it would not be pleasantly received by
this country she promptly receded.
It is learned that the Spanish objection
to Consul-G eneral Lee is based largely
upon his sympathy for the Cubans and
some of his utterances which have found
their way into print.
1t is understood that the Spaniards also
take exceptions to the friendly relations
and companionship existing between
Gen. Lee and correspondents of papers
which have been decidedly unfriendly
to Spain.

ried to Spain papers and information cal

MILLIONS FOR DEFENSE.
representative Cannon Introduces
Bill Appropriating
$5O,OOO,OOO.

Washington, D. c., March 7.-Chair-
man Cannon of the appropriations COM
nittee today introduced a bill entitled
Making Appropriations for the National
Defense" 1t is as follows:
THAT there is hereby appropriated out
Of any money in the treasury. not other
wise appropriated, for the national de-
Tense and for each and every purpose con-
nected Herewith. to be expended at the
discretion of the President and to re-
main available until June 30, 1899 $780,
O00 600"
1t was referred to the committee on APP
preparations.
Mr.. Cannon had an interview with the
President this morning and at its conclu-
sion went to the capitol and called Il
special meeting of the appropriations com
mittee. After this meeting Mr.. Cannon
introduced the national defense bill in
the House. The appropriations committee
will meet tomorrow.
The Cannon bill. it was learned later,
was the outcome of a conference held at
the white house this morning at which
Mr.. Cannon, Secretary Long, Mr.. Ding
ley, Senator Allison and Gen. Grosvenor
were present.
The situation was considered so grave
that it was deemed imperative that an
immense appropriation of this character
should be made at once to prepare for the
national defense. The bill will be present
ed in the House at once. This can be
stated on the highest authority.
The Cannon bill approprating S50,OOO.-
600 to provide for the national defense will
probably be presented to the House to-
morrow.
Mr.. Cannon saws be simply introduced
the bill in his individual capacity as a
| representative. This is, of course, true,
but it can be stated positively that the
JntTOGnrG6 n no
conference with the President and the Re-
publican leaders of both houses, and that
the bill has the Presidents approval
The bill will be considered at the post
poned meeting Of the appropriations COM
mittee tomorrow and probably reported
for immediate action.
Several Democratic members say they
will vote for it if the President deems it
necessary, and so far as known there will
be nc vote against it.

culated to make the Spanish government
request the recall of Consul-General Lee.
1t is still maintained that there has
been no demand on the part of the Span
ish government for the recall of Consul
Gen. Lee, but this denial does not
take the form of a complete assertion
that something like an intimatiOn was not
given that the Spanish government would
be pleased when Gen. Lee was relieved
at Havana.
Still there is q wide and substantial diff
ference between these two propositions
an official statement and an unofficial in
timation-and therein was a loophole for
escape. Had the Spanish government
made an official demand for Gen. Lees
recall it would have had no recourse i'll
the event of refusal by our government
to accept the demand, but must have
withdrawn the conSul-generaIs eX-
equatur. thus leaving him without official
status in Havana. The matter not hay
ing taken that official form, however,
there is no tangible excuse for Spain to
look upon herself as Inundated i'll the
matter.
1t is quite certain that the administra-
ton does not take the view. Us a haSty
glance at the situation would seem to in
dicate that there may not be peaceful
termina tons of this last incident, and
such officers of the cabinet as have felt
free to discuss the situation at al have
not hesitated to declare that no rupture
in the relations between the United
States and Spain is likely to result.
There was a good deal of consultation
this morning between the President and
Secretary Long and Assistant Secretary
Day, without doubt devoted to the CON
sideration of our relations with Spain.
Assistant Secretary Day also had half
hours conference with Senior du Bose,
the Spanish charge here, and managed to
find time to talk for a few minutes with
Col. J. J. McCoOk. whose interest in Gu
ban affairs is we'll known. 1t was stated
that the administration has no statement
to make further than that given out by
Judge Day yesterday.

tribes of Indians are ahead about $780,

A. Jones, whom President Mckinley
brought from Wisconsin to become COM

grows out of the lease of lands belonging

it is claimed that when Mr., Jones dis
covered that bid of 10 cents an acre for
q period Of four years, as against a previ-
Gus bid of cents, was part of a deal -
he began thorough Investigation. The
10-cent bid, it is alleged, was made by
irresponsible parties at the request of
las years Scent lessees. the expectation
being that the 10-cent bid would be
thrown out and the lease renewed to the
old holders at cents. But Mr.. Jones
brought things up with round turn with
demand for lO-cent price-and he got
it. 1t is said Abner Mckinley is inter-
