Washington, March 6-Senator War
ren has introduced two bills, provid
Ing for the cession of the arid public
lands to the various states in which
they are situated.
One of the bills cedes all the lands
unconditionally, and the other pro.
vides for cession after certain prepara-
tions shall have been made by the
states to redeem the lands, such as the
division of each state into irrigation
districts, the construction of reser-
voirs, etc.
The bill is preceded by large pre-
amble, setting forth the fact that the
remaining public lands are practically
arid and can be reclaimed by irriga
tion on an extensive scale, which is
only possible by state enterprises.
This bill conveys all the lands west
of the Goth meridian, except minera
lands and forest and Indian reserva
tions, to the state in which they are
located.

Pension SwindIer Arrested.

Topeka, Kansas, March 7.-George
Cralle, notorious and clever pension
swindler, has been brought here for
trial after being arrested at Holton by
government inspector. Cralle is
wanted, it is said, in Iowa, Missouri,
Nebraska and other states. He has
sailed under several aliases
Cralle claimed to be pension exam
iner. He would hunt up ignorant PEN
sioners and tell them that he had been
sent west to examine their cases.
Among others he would claim that the
persons pension was in bad shape and
was likely to be cut off; but for a cer-
tain amount of money he would fix
things all right in the pension office.
He is said to have operated extern
sively in the states above mentioned
and has reaped a considerable sum.
The government inspectors have been
on his trail for six months.

UNFOLDING the President.

Washington, March I'm speaking
OF the demand for the recall of General
Lee and the presidents refusal to do
so, there is no division in sentiment.
Leaders in congress all uphold the
president. Senator Davis said
Ut is a circumstance which, added TO
the present strained conditions, makes
things more vexatious. approve the
presidents action in every particular. "
Senator Pcctigrew said; 81 certainly
approve the presidents course in the
matter, l should Judge the request to
recall our consul general is somewhat
unsuual, and under other circum-
stances would be complied with, but
the conditions precedent to this case
take 1t out of the usual rule and JUS
tihed the presidents action. | think
that, in view of the fact that it is con.
ceaed the Maine was blown up, the
president would be justified in sending
oattleships loaded with combustibles
as well as food and filled with armed
men. 1t seems to me we cannot ac-
cept any settlement short of the in
dependence of Cuba.
Senator Cullom said: 81 regard the
course pursued by the president in an
swer to the Spanish government as
right, justified by all the conditions,
ana the American people will endorse
nm in that position he has taken.
have believed for some days that we
were nearing crisis from day to day,
and it has seemed to me that the
spanish government was endeavorinp
TO brlng on conflict between that
government and ours"
Senator Morgan of Alabama said,
Il heartily applaud the presidents
action in the dispatch do not think
the Spanish government will insist
upon Lees recall nor do l think it will
refuse bounty to those poor, starving
creatures, though it may be dished out
TO them with mailed hand. We are
proud OF General Lee and his conduct
IN Cuba. The recall of General Lee,
in my opinion, was in Difference to the
sentiment in Madrid"
Representative Grosvenor of Ohio:
Spain has the undoubted right to
make peremptory demand for the
withdrawal of General Lee, Under or
binary circumstances, this government
would be bound to grant this conces-
sion upon demand, but under existing
circumstances, where the withdrawal
of Lee would be an implied censure of
his course, the president should re-
fuse just as peremptory."

Utah GilsonIte Lands,

Washington, March THE Indian
appropriation bill as amended in the
Senate will be called up in the House
this week and sent to conference. The
bill came to the house from the Senate
with seventy-fve amendments, many
of them important, and including the
free homes provision, the disposition
OF the gilsonite lands of Utah and the
ratification of several Indian treaties.
The House Indian committee, without
opposition, have agreed to disagree tc
all Senate amendments except the gil.
sonite clause, which is to be concurred
IN with an amendment, and the Semi
mole Indians agreement is to be
amended by adding the Kiowa agree
ment. Representative Eddy of Mime
sofa has given notice to the committee
that when the bill is called up in the
House he will move to concur in the
Senate amendments for the free home
stead Legislation. This will be stub
bornly fought as the committee has
declsively voted it down.

large proportion of water which the

SPANISH INVESTIGATION.
Slow Progress Being Made by sapanish
Divers.

Havana, March 7.-Notwithstandin
the permission given by the United
States government for Spanish divers
toexamine the wreck. the investigation
by the Spanish authorities of the con.
dition of the ship as it lies in the water
proceeds slowly. They seemed to be
In no hurry to learn the facts about
the hull, magazines and other matters
whsch were first to engage the atten-
tion OF the naval board The govern
ment has, however, taken considerabl
testimony of persons who were in the
harbor on the night of the explosion.
1t gives much weight to the testimony
OF those who say they saw flames
issuing from the Maine efore the shin
was wrecked by an explosion.
The understanding in Havan is tina,
the naval board will be emphatic in
generating Captain Sigsbee and the
ofhcers OF the Maine from implication
OF negligence, lack of discipline or re-
sponslbility for the disaster 1t has
been almost forgotten that until the
board reports on the subject Captain
slgsbee is nominally under a cloud
that is, the inquiry must determine
whether or not the commander of the
! Maine was in any way responsible for
her loss. The secrecy with which the
investigation has been conducted has
not prevented the testimony on the
subject from becoming known.
The board will be able to go further
and show that there was not only an
accident which could have been pre-
vented but also no basis for the theor-
les of accident from an unknown cause.
How far it will go in the assertion Of
positive proof that the Maine was
blown up, is for the present specula-
tion. The prevalent impression is that
the board has evidence of the deed.

Ife denial, credited to Senior Du
Bose in Washington, that mines ex-
listed in Havana harbor, does not re-
ceive the weight that would be given
an official declaration from Captain
General Blanco or Premier Sagasta on
the same subject. In official circles
here it is the evident purpose to com
bat the finding of the naval board, but
not aggressively The Spanish atti-
tude seems to be that an accident was
probable and that the United States is
not justified in making a demand for
reparation when the proof of foul play
Is not positive. The assumption will
be that the two governments, after
taxing evidence, will be unable to
agree in their conclusions. However,

DISTRESS IN SPAIN.
This Situation Occupies Public Attention
More Than War,


More Than War.
Madrid, March I'm contrast with
the clamor in America, there is almost
absolute calm here and that, too, even
on the boursees, where the falls are
due to foreign selling. The general
opinion Is that the United States dare
not make suspicion, which is unsup-
ported by evidence and is abhorred by
European opinion, the pretext for
war.
The distress in various parts of the
country occupies tho public mind far
more than American relations. Not
withstanding the reduction in the
grain duty, famine threatens.
The socialists are utilizing the
dearth, under guise of electioneering.
as a means of fomenting popular api-
tation, and it would require some overt
act of injustice on the part of America
to divert public sentiment.

Think Mine DESTROYED the Maine.

Havana, March 6.-Most of the naval
officers here and at Key West incline
TO the opinion that the court will find
that the disaster to the Maine was
caused by the explosion of floating
submarine mine under the port side OF
the ship forward. Opinions differ as
TO whether the mine was made of high
explosives, such as wet and dry gun
cotton, or ordinary gun powder.
oplnlons agree, not only as to the
existence of mines in the harbor, but
also that this one was laid purposeiy
near the bouy where foreign vessels
were directed to moor, and was fred
from an electric battery on shore.
1t is belived barely possible that the
explosion was the result of carelessness
or ignorance of Spanish officers in
charge of the mine station keys when
testing the circuit, but the latter sun
position is felt to be probable. 1t is
further rega%ded as settled by the
evidence before the court that the port
side of the hull forward was complete
ly blown to pieces, and that the only
explosion on the Maine. except of
isolated cases of fixed ammunition.
was that of 1000 pounds of saluting
powder, stored forward, and of which
