ty-three known dead; q possibility that
the list may reach 80; 1850 people in
actual need Of the necessaries of life,
700 people homeless. and damage to
the amount'of 100000 is the net re-
suit Of the flood which swept through
Shawneetown Sunday afternoon.
There is q possibility that the number
Of dead may exceed the list by a small
margin, but there is much uncertainty
regarding the number Of people
drowned. with the exception of those
mentioned above. and there is no
ground for believing that others were
lost save the statement Of several ma.
tives Of Shawneetown that they saw
people.

HOUSE SENTIMENT DIVIDED
Probable support for the Programme Of

Probable support for the Programme Of
the President.
WAsH1NaToN. April 7.-Among the
Republicans Of the house there seemed
marked conflict Of opinion as to
whether, in the event the president
recommends intervention only and not
the recognition Of the Independence Of
Cuba, they will accede to his view of
the question. The same conflict exists
among the Republicans Of the foreign
affairs committee.
Many seem Indifferent as to what
form the recommendations or argu.
ment of the message may take. They
consider that intervention and inde-
pendence are practically equivalent, in
that both will bring the question be-
tween Spain and the United States to
an immediate issue. s,

Long Wrangle Not Unlikely
Before the Cuban Question
Is Disposed Of.
One Faction Advocates lnde-
pendence. the Other Inter-
vention Alone.
Position Of the House on the
Presidents Policy Also
Very Doubtful.

WASHINGTON. April IA debate
which occurred in the executive session
Of the senate during the afternoon
would indicate that no matter what
was the character Of the resolution to
come from the committee on foreign
relations it would cause serious and
perhaps prolonged discussion. 1t EN-.
phasized the fact that there are two el.
ements in the senate-one for indie.
pendence with intervention, another
for intervention alone-and these two
factions will fight vigorously for their
IDEAS The session was devoted to q
general discussion of the policy to be
pursued towards Spain and developed
the fact that much opposition would be
made to the acceptance of policy in
line with the presidents desires
For Intervention Only.
The question was raised by Senator
Allen, who made long speech predict
ing much dissatisfaction in the country
at large with policy on the part of
the executive that did not go to the ex-
tent Of giving the Cubans their entire
independence of the mother country.
Senator Allen was followed by other
speakers in the same line, and the fact
was made very evident that If the com.
mittee on foreign relations should
bring in resolution merely complying
with the Presidents request. and stop.
ping short of declaration for inde-
psndence, there would be an effort in
the senate to amend it so as to accom-.
plish this end. Indeed, the announce
ment was made by more than one sen.
ator, that he
Would Offer suoh an Amendment
and by many more that they would
support an effort in the direction of ad.
ding the Independence declaration to a
resolution providing simply for inter-
vention. The committee was therefore
urged not to yield to the wishes Of the
president, but to stand out strongly for
complete action. The policy Of the.
president for executive intervention
only was criticised as one. which would
place the entire question in the hands
Of the president and: thus leave the
matter where it now is, except that it
would be q voluntary relinquishment
Of the right Of congress in the premises
the right, among others, to declare
war. The greater part Of the speech
making was in opposition to the execu.
tive and no one attempted to outline
tho probable action Of the committee.
