Dutch product and ate it.

work was done and done we'll,
which seems not to be the case.
Work was going on on Fort
King avenue ard the question
was asked if the ordinance had
been complied with, when the re
mark of Chairman Livingston
was quoted, "StreetS never would
be paved if the law compelling
property owners to pay in ad-
vance was insisted on. Alder
man Smith insisted that such a
state of affairs should not exist,
the law must be complied with
and some one should be held re-
sponsible.
President Benjamin said the
street committee must get to-
gether, plan the work anu then
must see that the chairman car
ries them out and if he didn't,
why the ma aiority of the commit
tee had the power to make him
do the will of the ma jority or
expose him.
Alderman Fuller complained
that Chairman Livingston did
not consult the committee, but
went ahead on his own hook. A
report was in for paving North
Magnolia street, but as the coun-
Gil has taken no action in the
matter, it was decided the law
governing the paving Of streets
should be complied with.
A general exchange Of opinion

pressed. President Benjamin
called the council to regular or,

ACTIVE MEASURES
 NEEDED IN CUBA Senor DoIz Says Island Must Belong to Cuba or the
 United States.

Havana, Feb. 26.-La Discussion, the or gan of the radical aartonomists, today pub lished an important interview with Senor Dolz, secretary of public works in the CO., lcnial cabinet, in the course of which Se- nor Dolz complains of the inaction of the colonial government with regard to it's most important tasax, which he believes is the promotion of peace by means of a coin- promise with the separatists, with which end in view, he suggests active measures and the greatest purity of the admfnistra- ton, with the prosecution of a vigorous Cuban policy, with tine object of inspiring the greatest confidence in those in arms.
 Senor Doz Understands that the home government expects much from the Cuban cabinet and his party thinks that it is the only object that has brought him to Cuba. He declares that the political situa- ton can be defined by saying either that the island is to belong to Cubans under home rule, or that its territory and wealth are to be long to the United States.
 The court of inqudry was In session again today, but did nothing, simply waiting to see if amy new developments resulted from the work of the divers. A strong wind hindered the divers in their operations, but the new divers and apparatus brought by the Mascortte are now on board the tug Right Arm, and will be put to work as soon as possible.
 Captain Sampson expects that the Man. grove, with the court of inquiry on board, will sail tonight, unless new discoveries are made to detain her. Captain Sigsbee and the other officers of the Maine will probably remain until the Mangrove re- turns.
 This morning Senator Proctor took break fast with Consul General Lee, and after ward walked and drove about the city.
 The wreck of the Maine sinks percepti- bly every day into the mud of the harbor.

Special cable to the Age-Herald. Copys
 lighted by W. R. Hearst.
 Madrid, Feb. 26-The dissolution of tha cortes today is taken to mean that Pres mder Sagaeta does not anticipate war with the United Etates.
 The premier, and in fact all the Spanish cabinet, are relying upon the reports cabled from Havana, and the Spanish offi- cials there hawe refused to acquaint them- selves with the exact situation. Spain ahas from the start listened to no story other than it was an accident.
 There is another theory advanced here for the dissolution of the corteS at thiS particular time, based upon the belief that to take tllds action at this time would be an indication to tine United States that Spain would go to the extreme in showing to the Untted States that it had no thought of preparing for war. There is an under current of belief here that Wylers is, thor oughly familiar with all the causes which led to the MairBe's destruction, and it waA his agents who touched the button that ign6ted the submarine mine.
 There is no disguieing the fact that Spain does not wish the United States to believe 1t is making any preparation for war, when, in fact, every nerve Is being strained to get tine war branches of the government dn readiness for what mo9t certainly resembles now a possible conflict, Public opinion is at fever heat against thA Americans-much the same here as it seems to be in Havana

The PnnuIists

Yesterday may be said to have been an important day in the history of the peo- ple's party of this state. Small mass meet ings or conferences were held in all the beats of the county for the purpose of se- lecting delegates to a general conferences in Birmingham next Saturday morning.
 From the reports received in the city last night all the meetings were largely attended and from the opinions expressed there seems to be little doubt that a big majority of the populists will come back into the democratic party. vote in the pri- maries and support the nominees. One or two of the leading men in the party have expressed the opinion that their return to the democratic party depended to a large extent on whether the democratic legisla- tors were nominated by primary or con vention, and it is possible that the re- opening of the question by the democrats may effect their action, but it is not proba- ble.
 The point that Is interesting the various democratic candidates is how the populists will vote in the primary. That is, will they pick out one candidate for each office and center their strength on him, or will their strength be divided out. The popu- list vote in this county is not small one and they could by united action elect al- most any democratic candidate on the ticket.
