HIGH SOUNDIOG PHRASES.

"a High Foreign Auth GRITTY" Says Spain
VIII Never RelinTuish Cnba-Wlil
Never Consider Such u Humiliation.
WASHINGTON. D. c., April 15.-In
view OF conflicting reports as to the at.
titude OF Spain q high foreign authority,
speaking with authoritative informa-
tion on the matter, authorized the fol-
lowing seml-oHicial statement Of the
Spanish position as to the surrender OF
Cuba: :,
"Once and for all. let II be under
stood that the erroneous Impressions as
to Spain's rellnQuishment OF the island
of Cuba are false and are calculated to
inspire false hopes and embarrass INTEL
ligent actlon. The government OF Spain
has never entertained the thought and
never will entertain 1t, Of evacuating
Cuba At no time has there been n
consideration OF any step withdrawing
the sovereignty of Spain over her West
Indian colonies. The honor and dignity
OF Spain revolt at the suggestion of the
Independence OF Cuba which would
alike reduce that island to the misery
OF irresponsible rule, and at the same
time terminate Spanish authority ir-
reparably bound up with the prosperity
OF the island. {.
E"For this and other reasons the re-.
ports that Spain is slowly yielding 10 a
retirement from Cuba are both mis-
chievous and groundless- No rulers, no
statesmen, no cortes OF Spain would
ever consider such n humiliation. But
In the face OF It, Spain. always desir-
Gus OF peace and ready by every honor
able means to secure peace. will stand
resolutely In defense OF her iinallenable
right, her sovereignty and her honor.
And she feels confident she has with
her the moral support of the entire civ
illzed world" 10 Z, 81

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, April 15,-
The Widow Clients field in the Chick
amauga Park. Is covered with the
white tents of the Twenty-flfth infan-
try. which reached here at 10 o'clock
this morning. The first order issued by
Colonel Burt was to name the camp,
Camp Boynton. AT o'clock guard was
mounted for the camp was running un-
der the regular military. routine. as
though 1t had been there for five years.
The news that several regiments of
cavalry were to come to the park to
keep them company, was very agree
able to the officers and men OF the regi-
ment, for they were beginning to fear
that they would be left all alone and
that after coming all this distance they
might be ordered to some other point to
remain inactive.
The increased signs OF war pleased
the men nightly and they laughed and
shouted whenever. 1t was intimat ted that
they might before long be moving fur
ther south to take part in-active cam
paisning. There never was regiment
in better heart or more anxious TO have
chance n the Spanlards than the
Twenty-flfth.

Mr.. Daniel said that he was conttnt
neither with the house resolution nor
with the senate committee resolution.
'In my Judgment" said he. ''our first
step should be 10 write on the statute
books OF the country q. recognitIoni Of
the great Cuban republic which has won
n place among the independent nations
By It's own valiant sword" tl5.i
Some sharp criticism OF the Prfsi-
dents action and message Induced a
heated colloquy between Mr., Daniel and
Mr.. Gray (Delaware).
In response to n question OF Mr.. Dnn-
lei directed ut Mr.. Gray as to the posi- i
,tion OF the President, the Delaware
senator replied: 1890
ay"I agree with the senator from Ylr-
glnil In that ! support the country, but
/ also support the constituted nuthor-
ity Of the country-placed In powerSby
the suffrage OF 7o,0Oo,000 people. t,1t
Want n Unitcd Front. w <
Mr.. Gray replied brefy3to Senator
Daniel, saying his only object was, 70
secure united front in the present
emergency. To do this he Thought
there should be cooperation between
congress and the President. Mr., Gray
said there was no justification for Mr.
Daniels !nsinuation that the {Presi-
dents supporters desired to send the
American army to Cuba TO aid in sup.
pressing Gomez. The only object OF In
reference would be in the end TO secure
the Independence OF Cuba.
Mr.. Daniel said he had made no such
insinuatlon. MIR. Daniel asked if the
language Of the President could not he
construed as an intention to force q
truce between the cubans and the
Spaniards. t,tsis q.
Mr.. Gray said he wanted q truce be-
tween the political parties here until
this crisis was passed. ~ q; -. -. .s.
" Mr.. Tlllman took the floor and said
there would be war whenever the reso-
luton should be adopted. But there
was no reason fo:' not saying candidiy
what We meant to do. -
Mr.. Tillman said he would speak in a,
non-partisan way, adding, Popullsts.
Republicans. Democrats are we. but all
Americans to make Cuba free. "
Mr.. Tilman announced himself for
the recognition OF the Cuban republic
and said II only the general declaration
for freedom was to be incorporates,
the President with the United States
troops in the island could establish
any government he might see fit. Un-
der such circumstances who would cons
stitute the returning board? 81
The proposition was to refuse to rec
oenize the gallant Cuban soldiers who
were fighting for homes and liberty,
and probably to again recognize Spans
ish authority. Mr.. Tillman said he did
not suspec: the President. but he had
some very wicked partners. who were
not free from suspicion OF being infnz
enced by Spanish bondholders.
At 10.a5 p. m. the senate adjourned
until 10 o'clock tomorrow. ss56
