Washington, April 1.-THE state de-

Blanco's proclamation ordering a cessa-
tion Of hostilities in Cuba. 1t was
cabled to the Spanish minister here and
by him delivered to the department.
The proclamation is as follows: His
majesty's government, yielding to the
reiterated wish expressed by his holi-
ness the pope, has been pleased to de-
cree suspension Of hostilities with the
object Of preparing and facilitating the
restoration Of peace on this island; in
virtue whereof 1 believe it convenient
to order:
Article From the day following
the receipt in each locality of the pres
ent proclamation, hostilities are ordered
to be suspended in all the territory OF
the island of Cuba. The details for the
execution of the above article will be
the object of special instructions that
Will be communicated to the several
commanders-in-chie of the army corps
for the easy and prompt execution ac-
cording to the situation and circum-
stances of the case. BLANCO."

Letter Minister Polo Wrote to Man Who
Commented on Him.
Washington, April 12.-The Spanish
minister. Senor Polo, has written a let
ter to Henry E. Burton, Of Middletown,
Corn, which, although personal in
character, presents the Spanish situa-
tion from his standpoint. 1t was in re-
sponse to a letter from Burton COM
menting the recent interview Of the
moinister asking fair play and a con-
sideration of both sides Of the case.
Senior Folo's letter is as follows in part:
Ignorance Of certain facts and exag-
geration Of others has created a ficti-
tious state OF opinion that certainly
could not exist IL the exact truth was
known. 1t is next to impossible now to
convince the average American that
autonomy is a reality, that the Cubans
themselves have the power in Cuba.
and that the government Of Spain can
not appoint single civil officer in the
|, island other than the personal staff of
the governor general. All the governors
and officials, including the judiciary.
are appointed by the Cuban cabinet.
L
ernor general, like the king Of Italy and
the queens of Spain and England, does
not govern. He only reigns.
1T has beer impossible to have the
Spanish and true Cuban sides of the
question made known. The newspapers
have. with very few exceptions. refused
to publish anything on our side of the
question, or have done so in such way
that ii has net attracted the public no.
tice. People have made UP their minds
already on the Cuban question. and
anything that is contrary to their belief
is supposed to be a Spanish lie. etc.
etc. 1t is also next to impossible TO
make most Americans understand that
IL the insurraction Of Cuba exists, the
United States have a great deal to do
with it, and this present situation here
certainly not created by Spain-in-
stead OF helping to end the sad state Of
Affairs in Cuba only favors a rebellion
that has no means of assuming success.
and has detained the very strong move
ment for autonomy amongst the insur-
gents that are not adventurers or SOL
diers Of fortune.
There is a talk Of war all the time.
and while the probability Of a conflict
hangs on, that very strong movement
Of course is held back awaiting events.
regret to say 1t seems to me too late
to change now American public opin-
ion. misled to such an extent in the

Dotn chambers Packed to Hear the Presi-
dents Message Read.
Washington, April 12.-In the senate
every available seat both on the floor
and in the galleries was occupied when
Vice President Hobart's gavel called
the session to order. In the galleries the
people had been waiting for hours. The
attendance of senators was unusually
large; indeed every member Of the body
was in his seat. The diplomatic gall
leries were full. Quay was making a
war speech when the message came in.
and when he was through the document
was read. The reading occupied Just
forty-two minutes. 1t was referred to
the foreign relations committee. Stewart
made war speech and Butler of North
Carolina offered a resolution based on
the Maine tragedy, demanding the i'm
mediate withdrawal of Spain's forces
from Cuba The resolution went over,
and the senate adjourned.
The message was read in the house
In the presence OF vast assemblage
and referred to the committee on for
eign affairs without debate. There was
absolutely no demonstration either of
approval or disapproval from the
crowded galleries throughout or at the
conclusion Of the reading. but there was
sharp burst of applause from the Re-
publican side when toward the close of
the message the president said the war
in Cuba must cease. At the conclusion
OF the reading about half the Republi-
cans applauded and several of the
Democrats groaned. After the message
had been referred the house transacted
some District of Columbia business and
then acted upon the Fairchilds- Ward
contested election case from the
Eighteenth district Of New York by
confirming Wards title to the seat
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1898-04-12

announced an almost complete change
Of position. These it il understood in
clude Adams of Pennsylvania and
Quigg Of New York. The meeting was
very stormy and some exciting discus
sions occurred. The most pronounced
sentiment in the committee in favor Of
immediate Intervention and the recog-
milton Of Independence from Spanish
rule was voiced by Pearson of North
Carolina, William Alden Smith Of Mich
igan, Heatwole of Minnesota, and Gill
lette of Massachusetts,.
There were numerous resolutions
drafted and offered for the action of the
committee, as different in character and
wording as there were members
present, but there was no ac-
tion beyond their formulation, submis-
sion and discussion. The nearest to sue
cess at agreement was made in the con-
sideratien Of a resolution by Henry Of
Indiana for immediate Intervention and
the establishment Of a stable govern
ment by the choice Of the people Of
Cuba, and another by Smith of Michi-
gan for immediate intervention, the ex-
pulsion of Spain from the island and
the formation Of a government by the
people Of Cuba.
The steering committee of nine elect
ed by the conference Of the Republican
Cuban sympathizers in the house met
and appointed special committee to
secure a statement Of the position Of
the two foreign committees in congress.
The committees instructions were to
ascertain what the committees of both
houses proposed to do and then report
for the consideration of the conference.
There are about sixty Republican rep
resentatives who have participated in
these conferences and one of their lead
ers stated at that they favored immedi-
ate armed Intervention and a declara-
tion that the Cuban people should and
Of right ought to be independent Of
Spanish rule.
The senate foreign relations commit
tee sat for about three hours, and after
the formal meeting had concluded the
Republican members held a conference
at which they considered the possibility
or securing luminous action on their
part. The committee as such did not
reach conclusion, nor even a decision
as to whether a report should be made
today. One reason for postponement
Of action is that the committee desires
before reporting to hear Consul General
Lee. who has informed the chairman
that he can be with them today. 1t was
stated by one Of the senators that the
resolutions reported would in all prob
ability contain at least a recognition Of
the right Of the Cuban people to free
dom and independence.
