Il am gratified to know, continued Mr..
Bailey that after fifteen months of delay
and suspense it has at last dawned upon the
Republican majority of this House that the
time for action has arrived (Applause on
the Democratic side) For more than a
year we have been entreating you to take
some action, and it is at least some salts
faction that you have resolved at last not
to heed our appeal. but TO heed your angry
constituents at home. tApplause on the
Democratic side.) But. true to your policy
and your traditions, you have resolved that
when at last you are compelled TO act, you
will deny to members of this body the OPP
portunity to discuss your conduct There is
a radical difference between the resolutions
reported by the majority and those reported
by the minority. There ought 10 be time
and opportunity allowed for those OF US who
think the minority resolution the wiser to
point out to the House and to the country
the reasons for our belief. And yet know
as we'll as the members on that side that
these resolutions involving the question Of
peace or war are TO be rushed through this
body with short and insufficient debate,
and that too, when every man in the coun-
try knows that nothing can be done until
the Senate acts, and you know that the
Senate will act with proper deliberation.
But, Mr.. Speaker we would rather have
action at last without discussion than To
have the practice OF the last twelve months
allowing ample discussion and no decision
tApplause.) The true rule ought 20 be that
questions of this kind can be fairly dis

There WAS an interesting r~eplevin case

Of the United States Rubber Company, and
the defendant, Willis s Knowles q former par

Mr. Watkinson claimed that he loaned the
dog to Knowles ut NAuestuck, Conn. In order

Knowles claims that the dog was given TO
him by the plaintiff.
Some very interesting letters were read,
In one OF which the plaintiff sent the infor-
nation to Knowles that he was studying law

| and his friends would have to look out for
themselves. The pl. intiff denied on the wit

Perkins OF this city that he gave the dog &c
Knowles.
Mr. watkinson, the father Of the plaintiff,
testified the defendant came to see him al
his present quarters In Philadelphia aftes
the suit was begun, and expressed deep regre,
at the trouble over the dog. and Knowles
said he wanted 10 set himself right. He

Colonel Castleman IL tho Rest Loved
Commander Mt Chickamauga-

Colonel Cast1eman IL the Best Loved
Commander at Chickamauga.
The men Of the First Kentucky regi-
ment were more thoroughly drenched
than any Of the others, because of the
fact that they had not all of their fonts
up and those that were mp had not been
ditched. Colonel Castleman refused to
let his men work in the rain, even to
ditch his tent. One of them, who per-
sisted in not letting the gallant colonel
wash away, was threatened with the
dire punishment Of being made to go
without "a handsome bottle Of red eye
which the colonel had saved up for him
il he didn't get inside his tent and make
an effort at least to keep dry. Its a
hard thing for the boys to do-this keep
ing dry" said the colonel solemnly. IL
he were the father of them all, the care
Colonel Castleman manifests toward his
men could not be more c~onsidernte.
Among his men ho Is without doubt the
most loved man OF any commander in
this army stationed mt Chickamauga-
Colonel Cnstleman has decided that
he will allow no regimental canteen.
He does not believe they will do any
good and only offer an opportunity for
the boys TO spend their little money.
This is not the only Kentucky regiment
here that is canteenless, Colonel Gather
of tho Second having refused his men
one, and the other regiments are wide
eyed in wonder at this remarkable state
of things existing in Kentucky regi-
ments. -Chickamauga Letter to Nash

While in full sway, there were some
who wanted to remove Charles l.. Kurtz
as the Ohio member Of the Republican
national committee. but Mr.. Hanna's
closest friends prevented ever consid-

New London, June ga more unsat-

than that which the university crews
and the thousands OF would-be specta-

times the referee attempted to start the

torrents. Mi. Meikelham was obliged to
put It over until this afternoon.
The early morning gave the very best
promise that the day would be an al

railroad wreck had occurred west OF New

suade the three coaches TO put the race
over for half IN hour In order that the
belated travellers might get their moneys
worth.
The weather held favorable until about
IN hour before the time set for the start
at 1:30. when the wind. which all the
morning had been light. shifted to the
southwest and blew briskly up the river,
Kicking up quite a sea and bringing on

RESENTED BY THE JUNTO.
Cubans Do Not Like the Slurs Thai
Are Cast UpOn Them

NEW YORK, July 19.-Dr Lincoln de
Zayos. of the Cuban Junto, said to-day that
the reports that the Cubans resent the pur-
pose of the United States to establish tenn
porary military other provisional govern
ment in the conquered territory in Cuba
was without foundation. ''The Cubans, .
said he, know that such arrangement Is
necessary, and they do not expect the
United States to turn the island of Cuba
over to them, or any part of it, for their
self-government until the island is entirely
under American control, and then only after
full provision is made for permanent,
stable government. The Cubans do resent,
however, the surs that are being cast upon
them. They are made to appear despicable,
while the Spaniards are suddenly being pic
tured as heroes. 1 see in these reports only
that certain forces are at work antagonistic
to the Cubans, which / recognize as the
same that strove so desperately to prevent
American Intervention. L have no fears.

ORDER WILL BE PRESERVED
NONE of THE CONQUERED TERRI

Insurgents Much Dislilxed by the Sol
diers-First Feelings Of Friendship
Now Turned Into Contempt.

WASHINGTON, July 19.-War Depart
ment officials feel that they are fully justi-
fed in their decision to retain practically
all of Skaters army at Santiago by the
press reports that reached them to-day in
dicating the growth of serious friction be-
tween the American forces and the Cuban
troops growing out of the latter's exclusion
from Santiago by General Skaters orders.
1t is felt now that the garrison originally
proposed, two immune regiments. would
have been quite insufficient TO meet an out
side Spanish force that might come from
Holguin or Manzanillo and also to restrain
the rapacity of the Cubans. 1t is realized
that the present situation is full of diff
Guilty and the future is dark owing to the
disposition evidenced by the Cubans to ig-
more or refuse to be bound by the amenities
of modern warfare. This first symptom of
friction has suggested to the officials innu-
merable difficulties that will arise in the
future. OF course it would seem to be only
polite now to avoid any open rupture with
the Cubans provided they can be kept in
leash and not involve the United States in
the disgrace that would follow the sacking
of helpless communities, but it begins to
oPPOoA llaI 4OI oO1IlS llIue 10 come, ana
even after the conquest of Cuba is complete.
the United States must maintain there
military government in order to meet the
responsibilities which it has assumed to the
civilized world.
A few days before the surrender. of San
tiago General Garcia sent a committee to
General Shafter informed him that the Gu
bans had selected a Cuban named Castillo
for governor of the city. 1t is plain, how
ever, from the reading of the Presidents s
order to Shafter that it will be a long time
before this officer is allowed to exercise
the functions of governor, and it is be-
ieved that it is the Presidents purpose.
when the military government he has lust
erected gives way, to replace it with pop
ular government, meaning thereby a gov
ernment for Santiago chosen by the free
vote OF the people of Santiago. 1t has been
suggested that the Presidendts action in
the case OF Santiago might be construed bv
european nations as indicating an intent
TO disregard the terms of the congressional
resolution which precipitated the war. and
10 mean permanent seizure of the island
In behalf of the United States. This view.
however, will not, it is believed. obtain to
any extent among the representatives of
the european nations in the United States
VINO are aware that some such action as
that adopted by the President is necessary
IN order to prevent excesses and lawless
extravagances at Santiago.
