draw these to Me. And he does draw

the Fathers heart is drawn to Him.
Every one who is true. or wants to be

Every one who desires to rise from
falseness into faith, every one who pur-
poses to forsake what is morally low

WASHINGTON, March %. - An
amendment to the sundry civil bill is
pending before the senate committee
on appropriations, apprOpriating $780,
900 to furnish supplies to the destitute
people of Cuba. The subcommittee has
not yet considered the amendment, but
it is stated that it will probably be
adopted
The suggestion is one of the results
Of the conference yesterday between
the president and Senators Allison and
German, and it is the understanding
in the committee that the president will
follow the suggestion with a request
to congress that the appropriation be
made. He thinks it is as we'll that the
money with which to relieve the dis
tress of the Cubans should come from
the national treasury as that 1t should
be collected by private subscription.
No doubt Is expressed that the COM
mittee wild report favorably ON the
recommendation or that congress will
pass 1t.
In certain quarters 1t is thought the
provision should be accompanied by a
declaration favoring the recognition Of
the belligerency Of the Cubans, but the
indications are that this will not be
attempted unless such q, recognition
should be recommended by the preSi-
dent.
The senators who have seen the
president within the past day or two
have formed the impression that he
has not yet formed any definite idea
as to what general course he may pur-
sue. They expect him to take some
decisive action at once, but are in doubt
whether 1t will be in the nature Of the
recognition of belligerency or of inde-
pendence or direct intervention.
NEW YORK, March 23-Mrs M. j.
Congdon, of Gowanda, N. Y, sent to
the Central Cuban relief committee, in
this city, today a letter which she re-
ceived from Walter Barker, United
States consul at Sagua la Grande
Cuba. In part the letter is as follows:
1.-THE situation cannot be penned nor
expressed. One must see it in all It's
distress and desolation. There are In
my consular district not less than $4,000
souls utterly destitute and without
food, who must soon die"

PHILADELPHIA. Pa. March %
What promises to develop into the ugli-
est political scandal ever inflicted upon
this city was revealed In court here to-
day. when one member Of the council
confessed to accepting brfbe; another
was accused Of like offense and two
others were charged with offering the
bribes.
Peter E. Smith, the Republican city
committeeman who is charged with
attempting to bribe Common Council
man Stevenson by an offer of $4,000 If
Stevenson would vote for the ordinance
leasing the city waterworks to the
Schuylkill Valley Water company, was
given a hearing before Common Pleas
Judges Gordon and Breezy, and was
held in 900 bail for trial.
The district attorney then proceeded
with the investigation of the charges of
bribery before the two judges named
and a sensation quickly developed in
the admission Of a member Of the city
council that he had accepted a bribe.
The seif-accused councilman was Louis
J. Walker, who acknowledged having
received $500 in cash for voting In COM
mittee to report the water ordinance
to the main body with favorable rec
ommendation.
He implicated Councilman Edwin E.
Smith, and said Smith received $500
cash at the same time that he (Walker)
was paid. The money was paid them,
he said, by Councilman Charles Seger.
Walker further acknowledged that he
was offered $4,000 in cash by Council
man J. Emory Bryan to vote for the
passage of the bill in council.
Upon leaving the witness stand,
Walker was taken into custody.
Further important developments are
expected.
Councilman Smith, who was accused
by Walker, declared emphatically that
he had never been offered or promised
any reward for his vote. District At
torney Graham declared that he knew
that $25000 in cash was paid for a fa-
vorable report Of the ordinance, and he
intended to find out who received this
money and also by whom it was paid

WASHINGTON, March 23.-The pre-
vailing impression among the Repub-
lican leaders of the house Is that the
president will intervene In Cuba on
humane grounds. but it is positively
stated by one of them. who is close
to the president, that the intervention
will not come until after the report Of
the board Of inquiry into the Maine
disaster goes to congress.
The two questions will be treated
separately" said he today "and the
message relative to Cuba will be sent
to congress soon after the report on the
Maine question:
The Cuban message, as forecasted by
a prominent Republican, will waive the
question of the Maine disaster and, put
ting aside that awful occurrence. will
be in effect a declaration to Spain that
the present methods of warfare in Cuba
must cease. 1t will result in inter-
vention in case Spain demurs The
message will be accompanied by the
reports of the consuls in Cuba.
Mr.. Dolliver (Rep., Io) says that In
terventior on humane grounds will
place our action upon a moral level
that would command the broad SYM
pathy of the world I'VE can afford "
he says, Ito waive all question as to
the Maine, if the board does not fix
the responsibility for the disaster on
Spain, in order to make the greater is
sue"
A prominent member Of the house,
who has been several times in consulta-
ton with the president recently and
who possesses as much unofficial infor-
| nation of the cause of the Maine dis
| aster probably as the president does,
| says that, while the board will not fix
the responsibility for the explosion, it
will be startling in its nature.

consultation tonight with Chairman

mittee Of the house, and Senator ALI

mittee.
The sentiment Is general that the re-
port on the Maine explosion will be of
such a character that congress will not
wait long before taking summary ac-
ton.
1t Is proposed to refer the report, in
each branch of congress, to the COM
mittee on foreign relations, but this will
be contested unless the opposition can
be quieted down in the meantime.
The president is in daily consulta-
ton with Democratic senators and rep
resentatives, requesting their influence
toward keeping congress on it's feet
and avoiding any scenes that will set
the country af1ame with the war craze.

that peaceful means would bring about

1t is known that great deal of work
has been done about the senate today
by senators who are known as CON-

that the senate await the action of the
president, and that no further attempts
be made to intensity the strained situ-

POSSIBLE CONFLICT.
Two Committees Claim Jurisdicttou
Over the Report.

BY Associated Press
WASHINGTON, March 23.-The sen.
ate committee on foreign relations did
not transact any business at it's meet
ing today, but informally discussed the
Cuban situation. In fact, the interest
In Cuba at the present time is such as
to overshadow everything else. and no
other foreign subject received atten-
ton.
1t can be stated that the consensus
of opinion of the committee, based on
information which has been received
from the administration by various
members, is that the president is pur-
suing wise and conservative course
course which is rendered necessary in
issues which involve peace or war
1t was the opinion however, that the
inevitable tendency was toward rup-
ture with Spain and that the United
States position was becoming strong
ef and stronger every day
The committee is aware that the
Maine disaster will be treated as a
separate and distinct incident for the
present.
There was some discussion as to
what would be done With the report of
the board of inquiry when it reaches
the senate Monday, and 1T is probable
that motion will be made to imme-
diately refer it to the committee ON for
elgn relations. 1T is known that the
