Washington. April 1.-THE future OF
the relations of the United States with
Spain and to Cuba rests with Con-
grees, the representative body OF the
American people.
cannot be foretold tonight. The for
eign committees of both houses now
have the subject In their control, and
after due deliber,tion Will report to
their respective branches what they
consider should be the attitude Of the
United States on the grave question
presented. Early action by the COM
mittees is expected, but exactly when
1t may be looked for Is not now deter
mnable.
The full responsibility OF the subject
was placed upon Congress when Presl-
dent Mckinley transmitted to IL the
carefully prepared and anxlously
awaited message relating to our me-
gotlations with Spain us to its warfare
In Cuba, and drawing therefrom his
personal conclusions and recommends
lions, He placed the trust In these
words:
THE issue IL now with Congress-. 1t
Is solemn responsibility have ex-
hausted every effort TO relieve the In
tolerable condition Of affairs which Is
at Our doors. Prepared to execute
every obligation imposed upon me by
the Constitution and the laws, await
your action"

that of President Cleveland on venezu-
ella nor President Harrison on Chile.

CULTIVATION OF ROSES.
An Interesting Paoer Read by Secretary Conner
Before the Utah Florists and Gar

The Utah Florists and Gardeners
society held It's regular monthly meet

greenhouses of the Huddart Floral Co
There was a good attendance and a
great deal of interest manifest. Nj.

his remarks with samples OF work per-
formed. He was followed by Mr. Hob
day with some interesting remarks on
the cultivation OF carnations. One OF
the features of the evening was the
paper read by Secretary Hugh Conner,
of the Huddart Floral company. Mr..
Conner has spent sixteen years largely
engaged in the culture of roses, and I'M
derstands the subfiiect thoroughly.
Following are few extracts taken
from his paper:
1t has been truly said that "of plant
ing roses there Is no end" and at the
same time 1t might almost be as truth
fully said that there are few outside of
the profession that have the faintest
idea as 10 the best way In which to
attain the end that they so much de-

or the housewife who takes delight in
her garden to lind that after the ex-

ton that she noticed when ats the

ment when she expected the plants to

Clarke got In on It at Il time when the
desire to see 1t IL very strong and a
field of prosperity has opened up be-

rank as a legitimate comedy. though
the farcial tendency Is very strong.
