WILL RUSH IT THROUGH
Bill Providing for Volunteers
Introduced.
AN ADMINISTRATION MEASURE
Various States Will Be Called on to Fur.
nish an Aggregate Of Seventy
Thousand Men.

WASHINGTON, April 19.-Representa-
tive Hull of Iowa. chairman Of the
house committee on military affairs,
has introduced an administration bill
authorizing the president to issue a
call for volunteers to the number of
60, 900 or 10000 men. It will be con.
sidered Immediately by the committee,
its passage expedited as rapidly as
possible and will take effect immedi-
ately upon the presidents approval.
Its terms will authorize the president
to call on the various states for quotas
in making up the aggregate. By read.
ing in this way, instead of specifically
looking to calling out the various
state militia, it will avoid several en-
barrassing technicalities, main one
being the constitutional inhibition on
sending state militia out of the coun.
try, while volunteers, so-called, can be
obtained anywhere. It is likely that if
the situation develops into such grave
proportions as is now expected, a Sec
ond call for 100000 volunteers will be
issued by the president. The necessity
for this immense number, however, is
not clear to the military auth critics at
this time,

PLACE FOR HOWELL.

In Command OF the Newly Organized Pa
troll Fleet.
WASHINGTON, April 10. Secretary
Long has decided to assign Commodore
Howell to command the newly organ
lied patrol feet, consisting of the Yose-
mite, the Prairie, the Yankee and the
Dixie. This detail for Commodore
Howell is q solution of a difficulty
which has been confronting the de.
partment ever since his return from
the European station.
Secretary Long was very anxious to
avail himself Of the experience of Com
modore Howell, but found difficulty in
doing so in view of the fact that he
outranks both Commodore Schley and
Captain Sampson. in command of the
two fleets. Neither of these officers
could in justice have been relieved to
make room for Commodore Howell and
the creation of the new feet solves the
difficulty. It is probable that the San
Francisco will be retained by CoEmo.

WASHINGTON, April 19.-The house,

TEXT OF THE RESOLUTION.

Recognizes Cuban Independence and
Directs Intervention.
WASHINGTON, April 19.-The joint
resolution for Intervention as finally
agreed on by the house and senate, is
as follows:
Joint resolution for the recognition of
the independence of the people of Cuba,
demanding that the government of Spain
relinquish it's authority and government
in the island of Cuba, and to withdraw
its land and naval forces from Cuba and
Cuban waters, and directing the president
of the United States to use the land and
naval forces of the United States to carry
these resolutions into effect
Whereas, The abhorrent conditions
which have existed for more than three
years in the island of Cuba, so near our
own borders have shocked the moral
sense of the people of the United States,
have been disgrace to Christian civiliza-
ton, eliminating, as they have, in the
destruction of United States battleship,
with 266 of it's officers and crew, while on
friendly visit in the harbor of Havana,
and cannot longer be endured, as has
been set forth by the president of the
United States in his message to congress

Resolved, First, That the people of the
island of Cuba are, and of right ought to
be, free and independent.
Second, That it is the duty of the
United States to demand, and the govern
ment of the United States does hereby
demand, that the government of Spain at
once relinquish it's authority and govern
ment in the island of Cuba and withdraw
it's land and naval forces from Cuba and
Cuban waters.
Third, That the president of the United
States be, and he hereby is, directed and
empowered to use the entire land and
naval forces of the United States, and to
call into actual service of the United
States the militia Of the several states, to
such extent as may be necessary to carry
these resolutions into effect.
Fourth, That the United States hereby
disclaims any disposition or intention to
exercise sovereignty, jurisdiction or con-
troll over said island except for the pacifi-
cation thereof, and asserts it's determina-
ton, when that is accepted, to leave the
government and control of the island to
it's people.

THANKSGIVING SERVICE
Extract from Sermon Delivered
by Rev. c. A. Berger

The sermon of Rev. G. A. Ber-
ger Thanksgiving day attracted no
little attention and met with gem
eral admiration ON the part of the
congregation. Among the other
good things in his srmon, Rev.
Berger said in conclusion:
IF success in commerce, in the
mechanical arts, in agriculture, in
the martial arts in army and navy
constitute nation blessed then
are the nations blessed whose God
is the Lord. | need not tarry to
prove to you the the truth of this
statement. 1t is enough. The
nations S of today, first in commerce,
first in agriculture, first ia liberal
arts and sciences, first in educa-
ton and in the highest and broad
est culture, first in war, are the
nations that accept our holy reli-
gion nations whose God is the
Lord. Yea, all that our great
country is today, she is through
the blessings of Almighty God.
This is a confession that has come
from Columbia's sons and daugh-
ters all down the path of history.
Washington confessed this at
Valley Forge; jackson confessed
this in the war of 1872: the i'm
mortal Lincoln confessed this in
the darkest days of our nations
history: Ulysses S. Grant con-
fessed this on that day when
he went up to Mt. McGregor
to die; Grover Cleveland and
President Mckinley confessed it
in their inaugurals; Col. Bryan
confessed this both from the back
end of car and before his troops
he is commanding; Sampson, the
genius; Dewey, the daring hero,
confessed this, as admirals of the
victorious army and navy; the
millions of Columbia's best sons
and daughters, who assemble this
day for the worship of God, in
every state of our Union, confess
that our best and richest blessings
as nation are from the hand of
God. 1t behooves all of us to

Traasc at London Bridse g.

It is computed that about 100000
pedestrians and 10000 vehicles cross
London bridge every day. Each leaves
behind a little shoe leather or little
iron-just a trifie, but when litter
and dust are added to these minute
losses the whole fills between three
and four carts. The most surprising
fact of all, however. is that the inces-
SAINT traffic across the bridge reduces
to powder about twenty-five cubic

A New FIRE Extinguisner.

Mr.. T. A. Ready, of New York city,
has patented a device which he calls a
fire battery" and its object is to join
together and discharge the water from
several fire engines in one tremendous
jet. The apparatus has the appearance
of an ordinary field piece of artillery,
in that it's principal part consists OF a
long tube mounted upon trunnions and
fixed on wheels. This tube is a taper
ing one, it's larger end being closed and
fitted with several MOBILES, to which the
hose from as many engines can be at
tached; from the other end the con-
joined water supply issues in single
jet. The jet can be moved or set a.
any required angle by means of hand
wheel operated by one person, and the
fire battery has other attachments
for use in cases of emergency. One can
wei imagine circumstances under
which this concentration of the water
power available would be of extreme
value in the rapid extinction of fire.
