The Message Held Back to Get Amer
leans Away From Cuba.
MAY YET BE NO WARFARE.
The Queen Regent Has Taken the Az
feir Out of Her Minister'S Hands
and Treating with Minister
woodrun HERSELF

Washington, April Q. The message
Of President Mckinley did not 20 to
congress today and in all probability IL
may not go In before next Monday;
however, something may develop that
will hasten the document TO congress-
The specific reason for this Is that II
war Is declared Consul General Lee and
many other Americans would be caught
In Cuba, and the administration fears
they would all be murdered II left ON tho
island.
There are many rumors out here a. 10
the reason why the message was not
sent In, and one in particular Is, that
representatives and senators were op-
posed 70 the simple declaration Of inter.
yention without tho freedom Of Cuba.
This Is certainly not true, for the
leaders have been taken into con-
hdenoe by the president and
told Of his intention In regard 70
Cuba before he ever began to prepare
his message, and Furthermore he has
consulted them almost daily In the mat
ter.
The fact Is the contents Of the mes
sage are known only 10 the leaders
Of both houses in both political parties,
and by them the contents have been
kept secret at the request OF the presi-
dent.
What may transpire in the next few
days is only conjecture, but should the
matter be settled without any message
going 10 congress and entirely satisfac.
tory to the United States would now be
no surprise, for the queen regent Of
Spain has taken the whole affair out Of
the hands Of her ministry and is treat
ing with Minister woodford at Madrid.
She Is dealing with the United States
minister through the German and Aus
trian ambassadors at Madrid and is
working earnestly for peace, and IL Is
known beyond a doubt that Spain is
now prepared to give all America has
asked for. although the form Of this
concession must b. gilded TO suit Span.

q coaling station II would Be impossi.
BILE for this government 20 take territory
without the consent Of congress, and in
view Of the action Of the senate In re-
jecting the Lodge resolution, for the
purchase Of the Danish West Indies. il
is evident TO the administration that a
treaty with San Domingo for the ces-
sion Of SANTANA bay would meet with a
similar fate.
But in the event Of war the naval an.
thorities would undoubtedly seize a
point in the West Indies, possibly Sa-
mana bay, and employ II as a base Of
operations against Porto Rico. This
could b. done with the consent Of San
Domingo, but that government would
probably object, at least on the face, 20
cession in order TO protect herself from
liability growing out Of neutrality. An.
tieipating that American mln-of.war
cruising about Porto Rico will need coal,
instructions were sent some DAYS ago %
the American consul at 81. Thomas di.
recting him % purchase a. much btu
minous coal at that point as his discre-
tion dictated This coal Is now the
property Of the United States and can.
not, therefore, BE- obtained by Spanish
vessels. The authorities are confident
that Denmark win not consider that she
Is violating her neutrality obligations by
permitting American vessels 20 get their
own coal. In order 20 prevent any pro
test Il is proposed to have a number Of
lighters take the coal out to American
men-of.war II necessary.
The authorities deeply regret the &C.
ton OF the senate in rejecting at this
time the proposition to purchase the
Danish West Indies, and they say IL
may have an important bearing upon
the relations between the United States
and Denmark in the event Of a war.
Naturally Spain is trying 10 work up a
sentiment against the United States and
it Is expected she viii use the St. ThoIn.
as matter as the basis Of her insinua.
tions
Confident that Great Britain will re-
main neutral, the authorities are max.
ing no attempt TO purchase coal in Ja-
maica. IL has been decided TO abandon
the effort TO establish coaling stations
on Swan and Navassa islands. In fact
Hayti might object to the use Of Ma.
vassa island as coiling station. An
attache Of the Haytian legation stated
that Hayti had prior claim TO the Is
land, and that II the United States were
to use It As coaling station his govern.
ment might BE- liable TO Spain for dam.
ages. On the other hand, It Is contend.
ed by the authorities that Navassa is n
guano island is owned by an American
corporation. and is therefore the prop.
erty Of the United States.

New York, April Q The Cuban jun.

today. II declared in most unequivocal
language that the Cuban provisional
government and the Cuban army would

II the United States persisted in inter.

should be sent to Cuba upon the basis Of
intervention without independence the
Cuban army would, rs last resort,

A Phenomenon.

Monday morning last, all up the
valleys wherever the water accum-
ulated during the heavy rainfall of
Sunday night, it was noticeable that
sulphuric deposit covered the wat
er and had gathered along the mar
gins of the same in such quantities
that it could be gathered up by
the hand. A number of people
noticed it and supposing it to be
the shedding of the blooms from
the trees, thought nothing more
about it, but up at Asotin a num-
Der gathered this accumulated sui
phur, dried it and burned it to sat-
isfy themselves as to it's genuine
ness, and found that it gave off
strong fumes of sulphur. This
same deposit has been noticeable
at different times this season ex-
tending we'll up onto Craig noun
tain. Here is something for the
scientific mind to work on. Sun
day night the electrical storm was
the most brilliant ever witnessed
in this valley, the heavens were

Death of James Reubea.

James Reuben, the prominent
Nez Perez Indian, died at the Nez
Perce agency Saturday evening at
8 o'clock. His remains were re-
moved to his old home on Sweet
water creek, and the funeral was
held there at 10 o'clock Monday
morning.
The cause of Reuben's death was
blood poisoning, which resulted
from a severe wound in the right
leg which he received some weeks
ago by being thrown into a barb
wire fence. At the time of the &C
cident he was returning at night
from Genesee. He was riding horse
back and his pony galloped directly
into barb wire fence that had re-
Gently been constructed across the
road. Reuben was thrown from
the pony and hurled violently into
the fence, severely bruising his body
and receiving deep cut on one leg
below the knee that penetrated to
the bone. After the accident be
succeeded in reaching a farmer s
house near by, where a physician
from Genesee was summoned, who
dressed his wounds. Later Reuben
was moved to the agency. He was
apparently rapidly recovering from
his injuries when blood poisoning
developed in the wound on his leg,
resulting in his death.
The deceased was probably the
most intelligent and influential In
dian of the Nez Perez tribe. Aside
from an extraordinary natural in
telligence, he had the benefit of a
good education secured in the Whit
man college at Walla Walla. Up
on returning from school he quickly
assumed prominent position
among the advisors of his tribe, ex-
erting a powerful influence, which
he retained to the time Of his death.
He was an orator by intuition, and
perhaps had no peer as a public
speaker among the North American
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1898-07-02

Indians. On many public occas-
ions he has addressed astsemblages
of white people, his ssrvI ces as 3
speaker always being ID emand at
Fourth of July celebr ms. He
had an extensive 1cqual ! tance and
many friends among the white peO-
pie. a.N
Several hundred Indians attend
ed his funeral, and the evidence of
the high esteem in which they held
the deceased was imptessively evil
dsnced. Men, women and children
sobbed and gave other evidences of
their deep sorrow. George Moses,
who is the leader ofan element that
has always antagonized Reuben's
influence and leadership in the af-
fairs of the tribe, spoke words of
kindness over his departed enemy's
grave. The funeral services were
conducted by three native preach
ers OF the tribe.-Lewiston Tribune.
