massacre of sick and wounded.
On the subject of Intervention the COM
mittee says:
classification for intervention is strength
ened In such cases as the present, where
the expressions by state of its subjects
have been so inveterate, atrocious and SAN
culinary as to require intervention by other
nations in the interests of humanity and
the peace OF the world, for the purpose of
overthrowing that government and estab-
fishing and recognizing another in its place
as the only means of extirpating an other
wise incurable and dangerous evil"
The autonomy scheme, which was prom
ised and which was alluded to by President
Mckinley in his last annual message, is
pronounced "specious and illusory,"
Mr. Hoar, of Massachusetts, demanded
that the resolutions Ae over under the
rules until tomorrow. The vice-president
sustained the point.
Senator Turpie then presented the report
of the minority of the committee as fol-
lows:
The Minority Report
1.-THE undersigned members of the COM
mittee on foreign relations cordially concur
in the report made upon the Cuban resolu-
tions, but we favor the immediate recogni-
ton of the republic of Cuba as organized
in that island as free, Independent and
sovereign power among the nations of the
world
1t was signed by Senators Turpie, Mills.
Daniel and Foraker.
Following this came two Of the most re-
markable speeches yet delivered on the Gu
ban question. Mr.. Foraker and Mr.. Lodge,
both brilliant and impassioned orators, pre-
scented different phases of the Cuban situa-
ton. Mr.. Foraker advocated the direct
recognition of the independence of the Gu
ban republic and with an eloquence and
vehemence solJ m heard in the senate,
splendiy maintained his position.
Mr.. Foraker said:<
1.-THE president, in his message of the
18th instant, has very thoroughly and with
striking effect and force reviewed the en-
tire Cuban question. Notwithstanding lie
finds and states to us that the effort of
Spain to subdue and conquer the insurgents

An Act of Mercy
I'VE recommend the adoption of this reso-
luton to feed the famished Cubans as an
act of mercy and humanity"
The committee then quotes the various
jurists and the message of President Cleve-
land, Dec. Z, 1896, and from President Nc
Kinleys message of Dec. 6, 1897, in sup
port of the committees contention that the
attitude of the United States toward the
present question should be based upon the
right of Intervention and the intention to
exercise 1t In certain contingencies.
''These declarations" the committee says
In conclusion, more than implied that this
government would interpose In the event
of failure within a reasonable time to con-
quer the insurgents or to induce them by
concessions of home rule to lay down their
arms. They have not been subdued. The
autonomy proffered was specious and illu-
sorry. 1t has been rejected by the insur-
gents. not because 1t was specious and ilu-
sorry, but because they will accept nothing
short of complete national independence.
A suggestion of a more complete autonomy
has also been rejected by them. They de-
clare to the United States and to Spain
alike that no terms short of independence
which these powers may attempt to pre-
scribe to them will be accepted. The war,
then, must go on and the misery Whlch mas
shocked the civilized world must continue
and increase until 1t Is terminated by the
triumph of Cuba or Spain or by the inter-
position of the United States. 1t is the
opinion of this committee that the time to
interpose has arrived; that Intervention
which will stop the war and secure the ma
tional independence of Cuba should at once
take place. IT, under all the circumstances,
Spain chooses to regard such action py
this government as cause OF war, that
consequence, however deplorable, will be
accepted by the American people with all
the fortitude that confidence of-tustiee in
their action can inspire.
Intervention Is Justifable
"Such intervention is justifiable and 5usti-
fable for the following reasons:
'That the present condition in Cuba mas
become a menace to the peace of the world
and especially to the peace and safety OF
the United States. Spain has failed to per-
form her treaty obligations and other IN
ternational duties toward the United states
To give a minute specification OF thcse
derelictions would unnecessarily extend TINS
paper. They are the familiar matters OF
current history. American citizens nave
been seized and imprisoned without
shadow of right and have been proceeoeu
against with violent and irregular 1orhs
in violation of treaty obligations
"a justifiable cause for intervention mas
been afforded by the barbarity with WHICH
Spain has conducted her military opera
fions. nv her slaughter of captured insur-
gent soldiers and by her determination OF
not less than 100000 of her own non-com-
blatant subjects-men, women and cnlidren
by driving them from their homes INTO
nlaces of concentration and there suffering
them to die of starvation and disease.

Washington, June 2s.-The adminis-
tration yesterday finally came to q de-
cision to send an American squadron
to the Spanish coast and into the Med
iterranean. The first announcement
yesterday. through bulletin posted
at the navy department Of the govern
ment's intention, was received with
incredulity. There was suspicion
that the story was being foated to de-
ceive the Spanish government. How
ever. when later In the day the de-
tail Of the vessels selected to constl-
tute Commodore Watson's eastern
squadron was announced, and official
orders were given to provision the
fleet for four months 1t became appar-
ent to the last doubter that the gov
ernment was In earnest In this purpose
to dispatch the fleet to Europe. The
three vessels selected as colliers have
started already on their way to New
port News to take on a large supply Of
coal. 1t will require about week to
get this down to SIMPSONS fleet 30

GERMANY TO BLAME.
but For the Arrival Of Her War Vessels the
Spanish at Manila Would
Have Surrendered.

Hong Kong, June ga dispatch
boat just arrived from Manila, having
left there June %, brings the following
advices:
An American official at Cavite writes
as follows: "If great bloodshed and
destruction come to Manila. Spain
may justly blame the Germans. Man
fla would have surrendered before the
arrival of the German squadron with
out bloodshed, but now. owing to the
moral support Of its presence. the city
refuses to surrender"
The Spaniards claim to have driven
the rebels back, but really the posi-
tion is unchanged. The arrival of the
American troops is awaited, and they
are expected any day. The Spanish
outposts have prepared to retire
promptly to the walled citadel, and will
probably make only nominal re-
sistance. A section of the insurgents.
1t Is alleged, dislikes the Americans,
and desires German protection. Five
German warships are at Manila.
The Spaniards continue their nightly
fusillade, but the volunteers decline
to go to the trenches, while many Of
the regulars are idling about the town.
Thousands of trees in the vicinity of
the citadel have been cut down, but
the botanical gardens remain. All food
is held at famine prices. r.
General Aguinaldo, according to let
ters brought here from Cavite by
German steamer, occupies the mansion
of the late governor of Cavite. but he
will shortly move to linus to make
room for the American troops. The
insurgents now have 5000 prisoners.
A hundred and eighty-seven OF the
Spanish, wounded have been sent to
Manila, with flag of truce by permis-
sion Of Admiral Dewey. The wounded
Spanish officers, with one exception,
are at Cavite.
The Spanish brigadier Moret was
killed at San Fernandina in an at
tempt to force the rebel lines. i,.,
