RESOLUTIONS.

"Whereas, Our aspirations have been
crowned at last, achieving the free
dom and independence of our country,
a worthy recompense for the long and
awful sacrifices of the innumerable
patriots who have not ceased to strug-
gle against Spanish domination, and
in these moments of enthusiasm and
Joy we should convey the expression
of our gratitude to all who have la
bored i'm the days of adversely and
peril on behalf Of our redemption; ana
"Whereas, The solemn declaration of
our Independence is work of repara-
tion and justice, obtained, thanks to
the Titanic struggle of three genera
tions of patriots and the high senti-
ments of the noble people unequivo-
cally manifested by its efficient help
and sympathy which have eliminated
in the resolutions OF congress of April
10 and approved by the president of
the American republic recognizing
Cuba as a free and Independent nation
and compelling Spain to relinquish
forever her sovereignty; therefore be II
Resolved, First to send fraternal
greeting to all who at this moment
are laboring for Cuba in any form es-
pecially to those who are bearing arms
in the field of battle, and to render a
tribute of love to those who have fall
en- in the strife, in the prisons and in
exile or have succumbed, to the hor-
rors of the policy of the reconcentra-
tion decree of Spain, which has dis
graced civilization and shocked the
feelings of humanity.
"Second-To express our profound
thanks to congress and to the presi-
dent OF the great American union for
the disinterested and righteous act
which they have just realized to the
eternal honor of American justice, the
former with their decisive vote, the
latter by giving life and the strength
of law to the eXigencies Of public opin-
ion and TO the mandates of universal
conscience, and
"Third-To express our infinite
gratitude to the American press,
which has ever been friend TO Cuba
as the most constant and conspicuous
defender Of our cause, because of the
great part It has taken in the triumph
OF our ideas with its ceaseless pro-
paganda." s.

Buena Ventura, captured Friday off
Key West by the United States cruiser
Nashville, have issued a signed protest
against her capture They say the cargo
of the steamship belongs to British mer-
chants and was insured in Great Britain.
They add that the steamship left ship
Island ON April II, so her captain was not
aware of the outbreak of war.
Finally, the owners of the Buena Ven

Deweys signal victory has put the Amer
lean manufacturers In the way of making
fortunes.
Manila was, outside of Mexico, the
main supply for raw material and since
Admiral Dewey has closed that port
prices have suddenly doomed up from 31sc

while there Is not a great stock Of
manila hemp in this country the manu-
facturers can secure sisal hemp from
Mexico. Besides, the manufacturers have
great stocks of rope and Irvine on hand
and they have already put up prices on

"The talk of forming a combination
among the manufacturers has not as yet
gone beyond the point Of discussing the
ways and means of bringing about such
combination. The manufacturers main
