senate that the president would veto
the resolutions if they contained a
provision for the recognition of the Gu
ban republic. He did not believe that
the president had ever authorized any
man to say that he would veto resolu

no information to that effect had
reached him from. respectable
sources"
He believed that the discussion last
Saturday night had grown partly out
of the excitement of the moment and
partly out of a desire to precipitate d
political discussion. Sd
Mr.. Teller maintained that he and
those who had voted with him had
voted against the conference report
early Tuesday morning to sustain a.
principle Had they been successful,
then there would be in the resolutions
passed a clause recognizing the indie
pendence of the Cuban republic. Mr..
Teller maintained that even today
there was no necessity for intervention.
Had we recognized Cuban independ-
ence and given the patriots our moral
support, he had no doubt they would
be able to sustain themselves and gain
their freedom.

QUOTED SHERMAN.

Mr. Foraker called attention to state
ments made in the senate two years
ago by the present secretary of state.
Mr. Sherman. to the effect that the
Cuban republic had an established
form of government, administered by
officials of high standing, character
and ability. He held. therefore, that if
those statements were true two years
ago, the truth had been strongly ao-
centuated since that time, and that 1t
was further entirely proper for the
United States to ecognize the govern
ment of the CubanS.
1t was here that Mr.. Foraker made
his statement regarding the official rec
ognition of the representatives of the
Cuban republic. In discussing the dip
lomatic relations between this country
and Spain, Mr. Foraker read from a
newspaper clipping what he said to be
a semi-official statement, in effect that
in a formal dispatch sent by the presi
dent to the Madrid government, the at
torney general had changed the term
independent government" to stable
government" the change being made
because stable was the word of dip
lomacy to be employed in the circum-
stances,

PRESIDENTS MEANING.

When Minister Woodford had in
quired what construction was to be
placed on the word stable the presi-
dent had replied that it must be re-
garded as meaning independent. Mr..
Woodford had failed to transmit the
Presidents meaning to the Spanish
government fearing that such a state
ment made officially might conplicate
future negotiations
Mr.. Foraker said that it seemed to
he the explanation why the indepen-
dence of the Cubans had not been de-
manded by the president.
Mr.. Allison of Iowa interrupted to
say that he did not think there was
any doubt that the correspondence with
Spain would show that the president

SENATOR TELLER.

Mr.. Teller of Colorado, speaking up
on the same subject, said that he had
no desire unduly to criticise the presi
dent or the administration. He had
felt from the beginning there should
be a unanimity of action on the part of
all parties in congress if there was to
be War-a war which he thought
might have been averted if the preced-
ing administration, and even the pres
ent one, had acted properly its part in
the diplomatic negotiations. He was
of the opinion that the friends of the
administration, besides being willing to
have war with Spain, were also will
ing to seek war among the nations in
this body.
Mr.. Teller then reviewed the action of
congress upon the Cuban question.
Coming down to the speech of Mr..
Hale last Saturday night, he said that
it was the first time in his long ex-
perience in the senate that he had
heard congress threatened with an -ex-
ecutive veto or had heard the senate
threatened with a deadlock in the
house.

GOOD AMENDMENT.

To meet this defect. Mr.. Lacey offered
an amendment authorizing the presi-
dent TO raise volunteers when congress
shall have authorized him to do so, or
when he has been authorized Ito call
into the actual service of the United
States the militia of the several states"
The amendment was adopted.
Mr.. McMillin (Dem.. Tenn.) moved to
reduce the term of enlistment of the
volunteer forces for three years, as pro-
vided in the bill to one year. He
thought many of the young men of the
country would not be willing to enlist
for three years.
Mr. Hull replied that it was not ex-
pected that the war would not be a
long one, unless Spain resorted to
guerilla warfare, but he did not be-
lieve a three years term would terror
ize the young men. The amendment
was defeated.
Mr.. Handy offered a substitute, au-
thorizing the enlistment of 400 900 men
for the present war. He said it was
distinctly a temporary measure, under
the approval of eminent military au-
thorities. The substitute was lost.
NO LIGHT AFFAIR.
Mr.. Talbot (Dem., S. c. warned the
house that war with Spain was not a
light thing. Gentlemen who thought it
would be over in few days would be
sadly disappointed, in his mind.
L remember at the opening of the
last war" said he, men at the north
and south believed it would not last 80

NO BONDS FOR ALLEN.

THAT in the opinion of the senate no

warrant any increase in the interest
bearing bonded Indebtedness of this
government, or that will in any way in

The resolution went over.

on abandoned portions of Fort McGin-
mis- military reservation in Montana,
and for the relief of certain settlers
thereon, and providing for the construc-
ton OF bridge across the Yalabusha
river, between Tallahatchie and Carroll

Consideration of the sundry civil bill
was continued, and Mr.. Cockrell of Mis-
souri, continued his speech on the Gu
ban question, begun yesterday.
Mr.. Vest of Missouri inquired, soto

take the back track again today. In
Mr.. Cockrell said that he
desired to have passed by congress such
as would declare the Cuban
patriots free and Independent, and not

should be placed on them. They would,
he doubted not, be able in short time
to gain their freedom.

President Insists That Annexation Be

Solemn Pledge to Postpone Action.

Washington, June Assuming that the
Hawaiian resolution will pass the house
during the present session, the senatorial
supporters of annexation are counting
confidently upon also securing action by
the senate before adjournment. They to-
day proclaimed their intention to call up
the house resolution Immediately after

sion. 1t is. they say. their purpose TO
insist that congress shall remain in Ses-
sion until the resolution shall be acted
upon. They also assert that the president
is DESTROYS that this programme shall be
pursued and that ne is aVerSe TO adjourn

he considers of essential importance.

of the committee assert that there was
solemn agreement that the Hawaiian
question should not come up in any shape
in the senate during the present session,
providing the Democratic members would
assist in securing speedy action upon the
revenue bill. This they claim to have
done to the best of their ability. and they
say they will insist that the Republican
members of the committee keep their part

On the other hand. the supporters of an
neXation declare that there has been no
expedition of the revenue bill. and add
that the position assumed by the admin
istratiOn in active support of Hawaii will
materially assist them in overcoming the
opposition of the members of the finance
committee. They even declare that since
the military necessity of securing Hawaii
has been made apparent, some of the
Democratic members of fle committee
who have heretofore been counted among
the StauncheSt opponents of annexation
will now insist upon compliance with this
agreement. In a word, they declare their
confidence in being able TO overcome all
opposition in getting the resolution

About two mile west of MORO in

also supposed to be some mines near

though there are evidences of new

The only view into the harbor for
any distance is from the south. AS
the flagship passed along, Lieutenant
Sears noted that the Spanish cruiser
Reina Mercedes, which has been partly
dismantled, lay in the harbor, per-
haps 1,500 yards inside of MORO castle.
To the westward and further inside
was the Spanish first-class armored
cruiser Almirante Oquendo, lying under
the guns of Cayosanth and to the east
of the starboard battery, looking down
upon the narrow channel, was the
CTistobal Colon, with room only Tor one
ship at a time to pass.
1t will be thus seen that 1t Will be
suicidal to attempt to force an en-
trance into the harbor at least until the
batteries are reduced, and that Will
consume a lot of ammunition.

CERVERA WAS THERE.
Spanish Admiral Hoisted His Flag
On the Cristobal Colon.

Madrid, June 2.-Despite the state

Cervera was not present at the bonn
bardment of Santiago de Cuba on Tues
day, Captain Aunon, the minister Of

that Cervera hoisted his flag on the

It is rumored that Captain Aunon,
minister Ct marine, has received a dis
patch concerning the state of Admiral
Cervera's ships, which has not been
communicated to the press.
General Correa, minister of war, said:
There is no doubt whatever that Adj
miral Cervera's squadron is at Santiago.
Although it is not known, there is no
doubt that Admiral Cervera was on the
Cristobal Colon, as reported in private
dispatches. The dispatch from General
Blanco contains only news already
published. Had the attack been re-
newed, General Blanco would doubtless
have reported the same.

The superstition about women is a
relic of the old belief in witchcraft. II
is thought that a woman, by throwing
sand in the air on shipbOard, can pro-
duce violent storms Not many years
ago some women who Travelled on Eng
lish warships were tortured during a
storm to make them quiet the waves.
These barbaric beliefs, however. are
partially compensated by the supersti-
ton which sailors have held for CEN
turtles that beautiful children bring a
blessing to a ship. The Neck was a
handsome boy with golden curls. 1t is
said that he is always accompanied by
black lamb, and carries with him a
golden harp. Our old salts have es-
pecial confidence in a ship which is
christened by a child.
The average sailor is superstitiOus
about the ringing of the ships bells. In
olden times the bells were blessed be-
fore they were used. At present, if a
mistake is make in striking the hour.
the sailors insist that the bells at once
be struck backward to break the spell
And If by any chance the wind should
catch the bells and swing them all the
way around, or if they should strike
nine bells, il is believed that it will be
the last of that ship.
