Body En- Route to Vienna.

MADRID, Sept. 14.-The premier, Senior
Sagasta, to-day obtained the Queen Re-
gents signature to a decree proroguing the
Cortes, and with it ended a stormy session
of the Senate Before the close General
Primo de Rivera demanded an inquiry into
his administration of the Philippine islands
and in doing so he said the attacks of
Count Almenas were only eft for the mouth
of a miserable slanderer." Count Almenas
was endeavoring to reply when Senior Sa-
gasta read the decree proroguing the
Cortes. Count Almenas and General Rivera,
separately approached the president In
hostile manner and a duel is expected.
Premier Sagasta afterwards read the decree
in the Chamber of Deputies. 1t is said that
the Spanish peace commissioners will be
appointed without delav
A painful impression has been caused here
by statement made by the Pals saying the
United States intends to demand $2OOO0,00O
indemnity in behalf of American citizens
who have suffered through the insurrection
in Cuba. The Spanish peace commissioners
will strongly oppose this it is claimed, but
fears prevail that the United States will
become pitiless and press it's advantage to
the utmost.
The Queen Regent signed the protocol
bill this evening. The government had in
tended the Cortes to sit until an indemnity
bill for the suspension of the constitutional
guarantees had been passed, but the threat
ened agitation on the part Of General Wey-
Ter and others. together with evidence Of
divisions in both the Liberal and Conserva-
tive parties. convinced Senior Sagasta OF the
advisability OF closing down debates which
would have hindered the free progress of
the peace negotiations. The Cortes will be
next convoked to ratify the final treaty Of
peace.
1t is rumored that Senior Peroio, Senior
Crespo and Senior Lara, members of the
Chamber of Deputies, started for the
French frontier late this evening.

CUBAN MANIFESTO.
An Assembly to Re Called for FOrmu-
IatiDG n Policy.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA. Sept. lathe
council of the so-called provisional govern
ment of the republic of Cuba, represented
by Senior Bartolome Maso. president; Senior
Mendez Capote. vice president, and Senior
Font Senior Aleman, and Senior Moreno de
la Tore, secretaries met at Santa Cruz,
on Sept. and formulated manifesto to the
Cuban people with an order TO the military
commanders of the Cuban army, both of
which have been promulgated. The mani
festo which is an elaborate document
touches on the history of the movement for
Cuban independence and the principles upon
which the Cuban people have fought for
their liberty. 1t concludes follows:
1.-The people of the United States have
all along appreciated the fact that the ma
JorIty of the people OF Cuba is in agreement
with our principles: for the motto of the
United States government has been the
same as own own-absolute independence
for Cuba. Under these conditions. the Amer
leans could not take a hostile attitude
toward us or consider our authority illegiti
mate and harmful to the welfare of the
Cuban people. These considerations have
convinced US that we should not dissolve
and that the powers we have received from
an assembly elected by the people under
arms should not vanish. On the contrary
we feel that we should remain as a NUCLEUS
and guide for those who have vested such
power in us We have. therefore, decided
TO call together another assembly which
will determine our future course"
The manifesto gives number OF reasons
vened and some government or another
chosen, not with the character of gov
eminent as yet, but as an Official represen-
tation OF those Cubans who fought against
SPANS control and in foreign countries,
have helped and supported them"

The House, after a stormy debate
Thursday, reconsidered the vote upon
which had been passed the bill provid-
ing for additional improvements to the
State House. During the discus
sion personalities were indulged in,
and Mr.. HAZEL, of the former Build
ing Committee, insinuated that he be-
lieyed the move meant a reflection
upon the other committee. He said IN
response to R. H. Wilson, who wished
to reconsider the bill: eff this gentle
man raises an objection to the work
which has been done here he is the
first and only man in Delaware who
has. Some men would strain at
gnat and swallow camel. The same
people who are opposed to this bill
would vote $4,000 to the darned old
Kent county fair.
Do the people of Delaware wish to
be deprived of the privilege on election
day of selecting their own election Of
ficers? The elections in Delaware have
been unusually fair compared with
those elsewhere-not speaking of as
sessment and tax receipt qualifications.
This has been due more to local Sc
lection of election officers than to any
thing else. 1t is stated that Mr.. White
mans bill provides for Commission
name these officers, non-partisan or
bipartisan. This means the naming
of weak and perhaps corrupt election
officers of minority, it matters not who
the Commissioners may be. The most
unscrupulous politicians will attend to
to that part of the business. That has
been the history of such commissioners,
No, Mr.. Whiteman, we do not want
local selection of election officers to be
changed. 1t promotes honest elections
