CUBA IN THE SENATE.
Mr.. Allen Squciched by n Decisive
yote--War Talk Grows.

Washington. Feb. 23.-While the sem
ate had under consideration the diplO-
matte and consular appropriation Dill
today sharp debate on the Cuban sit
uation was precipitated by Mr.. Allen,
of Nebraska, who Offered as an amend
ment the resolution passed by the sem
ate year ago recognizing the bellig-
erent rights of the Cuban insurgents.
The debate became general and occu-
pied nearly four hours.
In the course of a reply to the pre-
liminary statement by Mr. Allen, Mr..
Morgan, of Alabama, said that this
country's relations with Spain at the
present time were seriously strained
and that Intervention by the United
States which year ago would have
been inoffensiVe would now be almost
cause for war. He expressed the
opinion that the Cuban affair would
eventually be submitted to the arbi-
tratment of the sword between the
United States and Spain, but he did
not want war precipitated by rash acts
of legislation. Mr.. Foraker tOD
thought the day not far distant when
the time for action by this country
would arrive and that the chief mag
istrate of the nation ought to rejoice
that the Legislative branch of the gov
ernment was prepared to support him
in preserving American rights. Mr..
Thurston (Neb.) counselled calmness
and prudence for he believed that the
country was rapidly drifting into a
war with Spain. I'VE ought to have
patience" said he, land wait as a
great and powerful people not in fear
but in hope. that some satisfactory
conclusion of the present difficulty may
be reached.
Mr.. Hoar (Mass) maintained that
the floor of the senate was no proper
place for angry discussions on inter-
national affairs, and that no senator
ought to utter anything that might not
well be uttered by the president of the
United States He expressed his will
ingness. however to give his support
to The executive should the time for
action arrive, provided the proposed
action was based upon clear and un-
mistakable facts. Mr. Aliens amend
ment was ruled out of order and the
appeal from the ruling taken by the
Nebraska senator was laid on the table
by vote of 81 to s.. Early i'm the day
Mr.. Allen offered n resolution provid-
ing for committee of five senators
who should go to Cuba and ascertain
the precise situation on the island. I'm

priation bills We're passed.

government at Washington is the pres
ence in New York harbor OF the vis-
caya. That boat is a menace because
there are in the United States just the
same elements as there are In Havana.
The Viscaya is in danger from the Gu
ban junta. The government fears that
the ship may be blown up just as was the
Maine. Everyone is extremely apprehen-
sive on this score. Every prccaution has
been taken to prevent anything Detailing
the cruiser, but there Is no telling what
might be done by the irresponsible people
who have the cause OF cuba at heart.
What our gov ernment wants now is to
ret the Viscaya out of the United States
waters That there will be an attempt
to destroy he' is well known to the de-
partment at Washington; they have been
informed of the intentions of the enc
mics of Spain. who i'm this case are also
enemies of the United states.
"a blow struck at the Viscaya. or any
accident Detailing her while she Is in New
York harbor would be tantamount to
declaration of war. Tho country IS
af1ame with a war feeling. II would take
little to provoke hostilities. IT is against
this that the government at Washington
Is guarding. The sentiment of the cooler
persons at the capital is that the people
of the country must be kept down in this
matter: the war spirit must not be per-
mtted to carry them away"

QUAY AND THE WAR SCARE.
The Senator Repudiates an Inter-
view Credited to Him,

Pittsburg, Feb. 2S.-What purported
TO be an interview with United States
Senator Nj. S. Quay, given at his home
in Beaver bearing on the destruction
of the battleship Maine and the pres
ence in American waters of the Viz
caya, was given publicity yesterday.
Senator Quay was last night asked by
a representative of the Commercial
Gazette If he had made the statements
credited to him i'm regard to the Maine
explosion. He said: II have NOT eu-
thorized an interview on the subject.
The secrets of the government are not
III my possession. and the publication
places me i'm ridiculous light at Wash
lngton'" The interview repudiated by
Senator Quay follows:
'''fhe Maine was blown up by a tor
pedo, declared the senator. 1.-The gov
ernment at Washington understands fully
ihe situation at Havana and all that is
being done there and that has taken
place. All the inquiry and all the inves-
ugdtions of divers will disclose nothing
more than Is now known. The torpedo
that DESTROYED the battleship was made
m. the United States. Its character ls
fully understood. II was possible to send
II through the water for mile and to
discharge II either by percussion or by a
time fuse arranged by clock work. That
the Spanish government had aught to do
with the work, however, Is not believed
by anyone conyersant with the facts The
torpedo probably was sped on its terrible
mission by members of the volunteer
army IN Havana, The work had not the

WHOLESALE POISONING D.?
tainiv Have a Suspicious Look.
Steps Toward an Investigation,

Huntingdon, Pa, Feb. 23.-By direc-
tion Of District Attorney Dunn, Cor
oner Schum today began an investiga-
ton into the alleged wholesale poison
ing of the family Of Joseph Demco, a
naturaliZed Hungarian farmer of
Cromwell township. Mrs. Demco and
the youngest child died suddenly from
what Dr. j. G. Stever, the attending
physician, declared to be commissions
caused by an irritant poison. Demco
and the two remaining children, suf-
fering with the same symptoms, are
barely alive. Their bodies are enact
ated and covered with eruptiOns.
Demco and John WILDER, also a natu-
rallied Hungarian, purchased a farm
in common, and lived in double house
with their families. DisSensions arose
over Wilber's effort to dispose of an in
terest in the farm to q fellow country
man. On Jan. 2, Demco's tWo-year- old
child was taken suddenly sick and died
in convulsions. On the 18th inst, Mrs
Dcmco met a similar death and all the
other members of the family were
stricken down. WILDER, the Co-partner
administered the medicine prescribed
by the attending physician, but the
three patients continued to sink until
in desperation, DR.. Stever removed
them to his home. They are now slow
ly improving.
The powders prescribed by Dr. Ste
yer and entrusted to WILDER show
twice the bulk of their original size
These the coroner will have analysed
Wilber, who is now under surveillance
acknowledges having bought arsenic
recently, but says it was to kill barn
rats. The bodies of Mrs. Demco and
the child will he eXhumed on Monday
and their stomachs subjected to an an
alytical examination.

VISCAYA STILL HERE.
Her Captain Is in No Hurry to Take
His Departure.

New York, Feb. 23.-Sensational re-
ports that the Vizcayas officers had
ordered that the coal be taken aboard
in haste, and that men had been kept
at work day and night in this service
were authoritatively denied today. on
the contrary, no more dispatch has
been used in coaling than is usual,
and no efforts will be made to COM
plete the loading of the 900 tons re-
quired by the cruiser, before tomorrow.
1t was learned at the Spanish con-
sulate general that Captain Eulate had
received no sailing orders up to 2 p.
m. today. He was ordered before
leaving Las Palmas to spend one week
in American waters, before sailing for
Havana and up to this time has re-
ceived no instructions conflicting with
this order.
