CUBA MUST BE FREE
Congress Will Order Intervention,
Without independence.

| After the reading OF the presidents
message Monday it was referred to the
foreign affairs committee In each house
OF Congress. A spirited contest has fol-
lowed. Most OF the Republicans favor
supporting the president in the maiu,
looking toward Intervention wit hout
recognizing the independence of the p res.
ent Cuban government. Nearly all the
Democrats and minority OF Republicans
urge not only Intervention but inde-
pendence. lt will require several days for
Congress to formulate action.
Tie resolutions reported by the Senate
committee are:
"rhat the people OF this island are and
of right ought to be free and independent.
"The government OF the United States
demands that Spain at once relinquish all
authority and government over the island
and withdraw its forces from Cuban soil
and waters.
"rhat the president is directed to use
the entire land and naval forces OF the
United States and the militia to carry
these resolutions into effect"
The House, after very exciting and
disgraceful scene passed the following
resolution by vote OF 322 to 49,
"Resolved, That the president is hereby
authorized and directed to intervene at
once to stop the war in Cuba, to the end
and with the purpose OF securing perma-
nent peace and order there and establish
ing, by the free action OF the people there
of, q stable and independent government
OF their own in the island OF Cuba; and
the president Is hereby authorized and
empowered TO use the land and naval
forces OF the United States to execute the
purpose OF this resolution"
The House resolution is more likely to
prevail than that reported in the Senate.
Consul General Lee has arrived in
Washington. He supports the presidents
policy ana his influence Is felt in Con-
gress. He was rendered a great ovation
at Washington Tuesday night.
The flying squadron left Hampton
Roads yesterday for u short practice
cruise, il is stated.
The cable to Havana did not work yes
terday until late in the day and it was
thought to have been cut.
There was panic In Wall street yester-
day. Spanish as dropped to i5.
The Spanish cruisers, Vizcaya and
Oquendo, have sailed from Porto Rico to
join the feet at the Cape Verde islands.
This leaves Cuba with no naval protec.
tion. Spain is assembling astrong feet
at Cadiz and straining every nerve to pre-.
pare for the war which is now generally |
regarded as inevitable.
