A Rare Investment
The Union Trust Company offers to in
vestors of all classes stock in the
LAW BUILDING

an eleven-story structure, to be erected on
East Market street especially for lawyers,
real estate and insurance agents. This
stock is based upon first-class real estate,
which the history of cities shows is the
most valuable property to be had, paying
steadily under all conditions and accumu-
latng additional worth by the growth of
the city. Usually such property can only
be held by rich people, who receive al its
advantages, hut under the cooperative
plan by which this will be held, the bene-
fits are open to people of small means as
well. The location and character of this
building insures large income, from which
greater dividends can be had than from any
stock on this market. Shares are 500 each
and the number is limited to 1000. Full in
formation will be given on application, and
copies of the prospectus can be had at the

Neither Of Them Will Oppose Report.
PRESIDENTS MESSAGE IN ACCORD.
So Chief Executive Gives Senators Who
Call Upon Him to Understand.
RESPONSIBILITY FOR MAINE LOSS.
Committee to Place This Upon sDrfn,
and to Cite Ii as Just Cause for
American Resentment IL Not For
War.

WASHINGTON. April 1.-The full Sem
ate Committee on Foreign Relations has
practically agreed to accept the recon-
mendation of the subcommittee for
resolution recognizing the independence
of Cuba and recommending armed inter-
yention IL necessary to secure 1t.
This conclusion was reached after .
session to-day that did hot continue ior
more than an hour, and 80 far as can
be learned there was no division OF opln-
ion expressed In the COMMITTEES az to the
propriety OF this course. Senators Grays
Daniel and Turple were absent, but tRs
opinion is expressed that none OF them
will make any opposition to the reporting
OF the resolution.
The fun committee to-day gave most
OF its attention to the text OF the repors
which Will be made to accompany the
resolution, and which has been prepared
by Senator Davis.
The committee also had Admiral Irwin
before them for some time to-day, ex-
aiming him as a torpedo expert. ON the
Mains disaster and also on the strength
OF the Spanish torpedo lotilla, ana as to
the best course for this country TO pur-
sue in meeting 1t.
FORAKER RESOLVES THE BASIS.
While the Foraker resolutions are made
the basis and tho principal part " the
measure which will be reported to Con-
gress, there are some additions TO them
and some unimportant changes in phrases
ology. The most important, and, In fact.
the only essential addition Is para
graph fixing the responsibility upon spain
for the Maine disaster, and citing this
"a a cause for American resentment, IL
not for war.
The committee was In communication
with the President during the day, and
was informed that while the Prosidenr
would make an earnest effort TO get his
MESSAGE 10 Congress on Monday. he
might not be able, on account or tho
| great demands upon his time, to get IL
| in before Tuesday. He will at the same
| time supply copies OF tho consular cor
resnondence. There has been some doubt
as TO what recommendations the Presi-
dent would make, II any. in his message.
but he gave the members or the Senate
who called upon him to-day TO UNDER
| stand that he would recommend both a
recognition of independence and decla-
ration in favor OF Intervention. rms
would be In accord with the committees
| action.
