WARSURE TO FOLLOW
Spain Is to Be Ordered Out of the
Island of Cuba.
Senate and House Adopt Resolution
lRecoEniHing Freedom of the Peo-
pie, But Refusing Recognition
to the Cuban Government.

Washington, April 19.-After one of the
hardest-fought battles between the two
houses known in many years, congress, at
an early hour this morning, came to an
agreement upon the most momentous ques-
tlon it has dealt with in a third of century.
The Cuban resolution was passed, and will
be sent to the president this morning. Its
provisions mean the expulsion of Spain
from the island of Cuba by uhe armed
forces of the United States. There were
many roll calls in both houses, and each
body held tenaciously for its own resolu-
ton The conferees had great difficulty
In agreeing. The first conference showed
q determination on the part of the house
not to yield single point, and 1t was only
after long consultations with the house
leaders that they agreed to allow the little
words ARE and" in the first section OF
the senate resolution, which declares that
the people of Cuba are, and of right ought
to be free and Independent. The resolu-
ton, as finally adopted Is that reported
from the senate committee on foreign rela-
tions, with the addition of the fourth sec
ton, known as the Teller amendment, dis
claiming any intention on the part OF the
United States to acquire Cuba. The reso-
luton cannot be sent to President Mckin-
ley until after 1t is signed by the presiding
officers to-day

CAN'T SECURE o'HIGGINS.
United States Gives Up It's Attempt
to Purchase the ChiIinn
Battleship.

Washington, April 19.-It was stated
at the navy department Monday after
noon that the efforts to secure the Chill
ian battleship o'Higgins have been
practically abandoned and that there is
no longer any prospect that the Unit
ed States desires or will be able to Sc
cure any more warships either belong
ing to foreign nations or being built
in foreign shipyards. Assistant Sec
retary Roosevelt said that it was more
than probable that the department
hereafter would confine its efforts in
this direction to the requirement of
yachts, tugs and small craft generally
for the purposes of the auxiliary navy.

Mr.. Dlngey's motion to Insist and ask
for conference was then agreed to with
out division, the opposition realizing
the manifest useessness of demanding a
roll call.
Just before five o'clock the speaker an
nounced the appointment of Messrs. Ad-
ans (rep., Pa.), Heatwole (rep, Minn), and
Dinsmore dem, Ark), as conferees on. the
Cuban resolutions. A recess was taken un-
til six o'clock, and at that hour the house
further recessed until eight o'clock.
Deadlock Continues.
The house roconvened at eight o'clock.
Several of the members of the house were

were many brilliant evening costumes.
Nothing was done until S45 p. M, when
the clerk of the senate announced the dis
agreement of the senate to the house
amendment and the appointment of con-
ferees.
A motion to recede and concur was again

hall arrayed in a dress suit while the vote
was being recapitulated, Joined in the re-
publican demonstration of approval when
the result was announced. Mr. Adams
motion for a further conference was then
agreed to without division The speaker
again appointed Messrs. Adams, Heatwole
and Dinsmore conferees. Mr.. Adams
moved a recess until IL O'Clock. Mr.. John
son (rep., Ind) antagonized this with a
motion to adjourn, but the chorus OF noes
was so fierce that he withdrew it and Mr..
Adams motion was agreed to.
Sing Patriotic Songs.
While the house was awaiting a half
hundred of the representatives gathered
in the lobby in the rear Of the hall nd
awoke the echoes with patriotic songs, The
battle hymn of the republic was sung by
Gen Henderson, of Iowa. "DiXie" and 9TH

There was admiration and love in his

There was passion and rapturous longing

Difference Over the Cuban ResOlu-
tiOn ProIOngs the Session.
Washington, April 19.-The tocsin of war
has been sounded by the American con-
gress AT l:l5 o'clock this morning the
senate received the report of the confer
ence committee of the two branches of the
congress. and u minutes afterward had
adopted 1t. There was fight to the last
minute, however, the advocates OF recog-
milton of the independence of the island re-
public standing their ground until they
were fairly knocked down by vote of AZ
to 35. The minority vote was cast by those
who wanted radical action and insisted
that the resolution should carry with II
recognition of the independence of the Gu
ban republic. Upon this a split developed
which very nearly proved fatal to any ac-
tion at all.
A Remarkable Session.
The adoption of the conference report
brought to a close one of the most interest
ing and tumultuous sessions of the SEN
ate held in years, Such scenes of confusion
and excitement hav rarely been witnessed
in the ordinarily stald and dignitied body
as characterized its proceedings from noon
Monday until nearly two O'Clock this morn
ing. Interest in all other questions was
dwarfed into insignficance by the one
overwhelming question of war-war which
all now regard to be absolutely inevitable.
Efforts were made to transact the regular
business of the senate, hut 1t was with the
utmost diffidence that senators performed
the work. Among those who remained upon

THE CAUSE OF DYSPEPSIA.
From the Republican. Scranton. Pa.

The primary cause of dyspepsia is lack Of
vitality; the absence of nerve force; the loss
of the life-sustaining elements of the blood.
no organ can properly perform its func-
tion when the source of nutriment fails.
When the stomach is robbed of the nourish
ment demanded by nature, assimilation
ceases, unnatural gases are generated; the
entire systm responds to the discord.
A practical illustration of the symptoms
and torture of dyspepsia is furnished by the
case of Joseph L. Vandyke, 44O Hickory St.,

from the yoke Of the foreigner? How
much money has he forwarded to Ire
land in behalf Of parliamentary agita-
ton? How does he figure as a patriot
beside the late Archbishop Lynch, Of
Toronto and his worthy successor, Arch
bishop Walsh. Now, then, an Irish
cardinal in Australia who has abso-
lutely done nothing with his tongue, pen
or purse to help his countrymen at

his voice against the centennial celebra.

land who took part In it. The Irish

the Australian cardinal and will do its
utmost to counterfeit his opposition tc
the celebration. And yet the editor is

diatribe against the Irish Standard that

What they will perceive and admit"
is that he is the only dignitary Of any
church, either Catholic or Protestant,
who has had the presumption of inter
fering in an affair that concerns the en-
tire Irish race abroad and at home. The
1rishmen Of Australia and America are
not mind readers. They judge men by
their ovcrt acts, the only sensible way
of Judging them. "By their fruits ye

supervision of converts. This petition
is not only an insult to the religious
orders, but to every Englishman who
boasts that an Englishman's house is
his castle. To strike at this old axiom
which is in Il measure the bulwark Of
English liberty, is to strike at the prl-

it is not surprising that the insolent

Some members of the religious orders

This petition from the English women

institution they have assailed with all
the malignity of their nature. They
realize that no st. Paul jury will ever

figures as plaintiff in the case. The
witnesses they relied on forgot their
former evidence and contradicted them
selves on material points. Mucn irrel-

on being objected to by the defendants

is every probability that favorable ver-
dict for the institution will be returned
by the jury.
