called up the p0Ssiittofilce appi6
bill az passed Tuesday by the 1enatoss
and upon his motion the house -
fused to concur to the senate amend
ments and asked conference. Mr..
Cummings of New York, MIR. Moody
of Massachusetts, Mr.. Bingham Of
Pennsylvania and Mr.. Pitney Of New
Jersey expressed opposition to the. sem
ate amendments limiting the deliveries
in cities to four and eliminating the
house provision for rural free delivery.
Messrs. Loud, Smith and Swanson
were named as conferees for the
house.
I'm the Senate.
For more than three hours the SEN
ate discussed what is known as tho
railway arbitration bill, q measure de-
signed to adjust by means of volun-
tary arbitration differences that may
arise between railroads and their en-
ployes. Mr.. Kyle Of South Dakota, in
charge of the bill, offered q number OF
amendments, which were agreed to. In
order to meet objections raised to the
measure, Mr.. Hoar Of Massachusetts
offered an amendment, which was ac-
cepted, providing that no injunction
should be issued which should compel
the laborer against his will to carry
out any contract for personal service.
The bill was under discussion when
the senate adjourned.
Washington. May 13.-After a pro-
longed discussion the senate passed
the bill concerning carriers engaged
in interstate commerce and their en-,
ployes," popularity known as the rail-
road arbitration bill. The most i'm
portant amendment to the measure
to the amendment was that offered by
Mr.. Hoar of Massachusetts, which pro-
vides that the courts shall issue no
injunction against railway employees
which shall compel them to give their
personal service to a company against
their will. On the final vote only
three senators were recorded against
the bill. A bill was passed removing
all disabilities imposed by the four
tenth amendment to the constitution
OH persons who were at one time en-
gagged in rebellion against the United
States. The war revenue measure was
reported to the senate and notice was
given that it would be taken up next
Monday for consideration.
In the House.
The house effected but little legisla-
ton. An important measure provid-
ing for the organization of special
line Of coast defense vessels and men
to maintain them was passed. The
senate bill to establish a volunteer Sig
nal corps was passed without amend
ment. These two emergency war
measures We're the features of the ses-
sion. The house voted to insist upon
its Inconvenience in the senate

feeding and arming the Cuban people,

MEETS FLAT DENIAL
Stories of Concc ntrnteI Action TIC.
NvNrslX Intervention

wards intervention.
Washington, May 14.-In all official
quarters. the state department. and
diplomatic, the reports coming from
London to the effect that some of the
continental powers. particularly Ger
many and France, have made protests
against American occupation of the
Philippines are met with fiat denial.
There has been no recent concerted ac-
ton among the continental powers
toward intervention. nor have the re-
ports of these powers in Washington
eXchanger any views lately touching
on Intervention. This statement is
made in the most specific manner by
French and German officials. Both
the German and French authorities
feel that their declaration of neutrali-
ty should be received in good faith and
without the frequent intimation that
they are about to intervene to defeat
the ends Of the United States. AS
showing how far fetched such reports
are, an ambassador stated that inter-
vention along the lines suggested by
the cable dispatches from London
would be so clearly against American
interests as to amount to Il caSus belli.
Being one of the four ambassadors at
Washington he was in Il position to
state that there was no truth in the
publication at London, cabled to this
country, that the ambassadors have
made joint representation to Secre-
tary Day concerning the occupation Of
the Philippines.

SPANISH CABINET CHANGES.
Some of Sngmstn's Ministers Become
Sick and Weary.

Madrid. May 14.-It turns out that
Admiral Bermejo, on learning of the
Cavitr disaster. told Senior Sagasta
that he must resign. owing to the deli
cacy Of his position, though he felt
that he was not responsible for the
state of the defenses of Manila.
Senior Moret pleaded WEAKNESS and
Count Xiuuena illness.
According to the last forecast the
new ministry will consist of Senior Sa-
gasta as president. Senior G.. Groissard.
minister OF justice of the dissolying
cabinet, as minister of foreign affairs;
Senior Aunon as minister of marine;
Senior Romero Giron as minister OF
justice. and the duke of Veragua. the
descendant of Columbus, as minister
of public works, agriculture and COM
E.erce.
The new cabinet will probably be
substituted Saturday. The general
opinion is that it will endure until the
budget is passe and collapse Mt the first
opportunity afterwards.
The changes. however. are pacific in
tendency, Senior Cullon having been
the most warlike element in the dis
solving cabinet.

slade Necespary ~ the news 81 the
Sssas Spanish Fleet.

Spanish Fleet. s
III Washington, May 10. "A complete
change has taken place in the offensive
nlans of our government. The re-
celpt Of the news from Sampson of his
attack on the forts at San Juan and
the news of the actual presence of
the flying squadron of Martinique,
only 500 miles away from Sampson
and less than 1000 miles from Ha-
vana, caused the dispatch of the fly
ing squadron under Commodore
schley and the delay of the army in
vasion Of Cuba. 1t is to the navy that
the government again looks for q
battle that may end this conflict. The
news of the Spanish feet revealed ut
once the possibility of quick move
ON the part of the Spanish fleet that
would cut the line of communication
by water between Cuba and Key
West, exposing to great peril any
American landing force that might be
caught between superior Spanish
army in Cuba and the spot patrolled
by Spanish cruisers. 1t became neces-'
sary, therefore, to defer the departure
Of the military expedition from Flori-
da until the Spanish fleet is met and
crushed or driven from West Indian
waters. Orders flew quickly and fast
from both the war and navy depart
nlents. The first checked the move
ment on Florida setting in from all
parts of the country and diverted the
troops toward the concentration camp
at Chickanauga. The navy depart
ment wired Sampson information of
tine
Approaches q Spanish Fleet
and directions what to do. and another
order flashed to Schley, who has been
eating out his heart at Hampton
Roads in his eagerness to get into the
fray. to start with his vessels at the
earliest possible moment. The COM
modore took no chance of a cancella-
ton of these highly desirable orders,
but at 3:45 o'clock had put himself
beyond the reach of any telegraphic
recall. What is expected of him can
not be disclosed at the navy depart
ment and naturally is purely a mat
ter of conjecture SIMPSONS fleet is
strong enough unaided to overcome
Tie spanish HylnS SquOurOn II lie can
ever catch it out of the reach of forti-
fications. His fleet, however, is lack
ing in speed as compared to the
Spanish vessels, and cooperation on
the part of our flying squadron would
add very mush to the chance of cor
nering the Spaniards and forcing the
fight which is believed to be necessary
to the success of the Cuban campaign
rs now planned. Some suggested ut
the navy department that the Spanish
feet when last heard from was at a
point not very much more distant from
the great cities of the Atlantic seaport
than from Havana, but il the Spanish
admiral contemplates movement in
the former direction he probably will
run full into Schley, who will have
his scouts we'll out in advance when
he moves southwark.
