noBARrs INVITATION TO auEsADA.
The Vice President Denies THAT 1t
Has Political Significance.

Washington. March 17.-An effort has
been made to create an international
issue out of the fact that Vice President
Hobart entertained Senior Quesada, who
represents the Cuban Junta here, at the
reception given Monday night In honor
of Prince Albert of Belgium.
So much gossip has been circulated on
the subject that Vice President Hobart
called at the state department TO explain
to Assistant Secretary Day the circum-
stances attending Senior Quesadas pres
ence at his house Monday evening.
Senior Polo Bernabe. the Spanish Mir
ister, was also at the state department
when Vice President Hobart called, and
he was present during the interview be-
tween the Vice President and Mr. Day.
II was stated that the friends of Cuba
has attached considerable significance 20
the presence Of Senor Quesada at the Vice
Presidents residence at a semi-official
function, and the Spanish authorities at
Madrid were annoyed by the reports sent
out that IL meant that this government
had virtually recognized the official status
of the Cuban junta.
, Vice President Hobart explained that
he had no intention of giving Senor Quesa-
da official recognition or special distinc-
ton by inviting him to meet Prince Al
bert. The dinner and reception given to
the Belgian Prince was purely a private
courtesy, and the guests invited to meet
him were selected without regard to their
official or unofficial status.
Senor Quesada has been a caller at the
Vice Presidents residence on several oc-
casons during the social season and his
name is on the Vice Presidents visiting
list.
The explanation of tho Vice President
was entirely satisfactory to MIR. Day,
and the Spanish minister quickly diseov-
cred that the Quesada incident is too ih-
significant for further consideration, SO
the incident is closed.

NATIONAL QUARANTINE,
Senators Mallory and Bacon speals
ON the Subject.

Washington, March 17.--At the conciu-
sion of Mr.. Proctor's statement In the
Senate to-day Mr.. Mallory of Florida de-
livered an extended speech In opposition
to the national quarantine bill. He held
strongly that the national government
ought not to trench upon the limits Of
the constitution by invading the rights Of
the states to establish their own quaran-
tine regulations. He advocated strength
ening the national maritime quarantine.
Mr.. Bacon of Georgia maintained that
the matter of quarantine was not rec
tional question, all the ports of the Unit
ed States being liable TO epidemcs. "I ia
vor," said he, "all the aid the government
can give In the preveT ton OF epldemics
and the stamping out Of disease, but do
not favor regulh p which will deny TO
a state or community the right TO protect
itself by quarantine regulation"
Previous to this Mr.. Butler OF North

FORT ON WARSAW SOUND.
Steps Taken to Secure Additional
Protection for Savannah.

Protection for Savannah.
Washington, March 17.-At the instance
of Senator Bacon and Representative Les
ter, the Secretary of War will take imme-
diate steps to further protect the harbor
of Savannah by erecting Notifications at
Warsaw sound.
Several days ago Senator Bacon called
upon Secretary Alger to urge proper 6e-
fenses for Brunswick, st. Mary's and Da-
rien. On that occasion no allusion was
made to Savannah, because Senator Ba-
con was under the impression that the
Notifications erected at Tybee would af-
vannah.
To-day's mail brought him letter from
Mayor Meldrim stating that Savannah
could be approached by Warsaw sound
to a point within five miles of the city
by vessels drawing twenty-one feet of wa
ter. and there was no defense against such
an approach.
Gen. Wilson, the chief of engineers of
the army has just returned to Washing
ton from an inspection of the defenses
along the Southern coast, and he has al
ready secured authority from the Presi-
dent to spend something over 100000 from
the emergency fund to provide protection
at such points as may have been over
looked in former works of defense.
senator Bacon and Col. Lester do not
anticIpate any trouble in convincing Gen.
Wilson of the necessity for protecting
Warsaw sound.
