WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-Consider-
able unnecessary excitement was caused
among the members of the house yester-
day by the rumor broadly circulated be-
fore the house convened that important
action relative to Cuba was to be taken
II turned out to be simply a resolution
of inquiry unanimously reported by the
foreign affairs committee last week call
ing on the state department for infor-
nation as to the condition Of the con-
centrados in Cuba and the progress
made in Spains effort to induce the
Cubans to accept autonomy. The reso-
luton was adopted without division.
The William Alden Smith resolution
inqulring into the recent restrictions Of
the German government on American
products was passed yesterday and was
changed in several important particu-
lars by the foreign affairs committee be-
fore being reported. AS introduced the
resolution referred to Attempted adul-
teration Of German wines for export
to the United States. The committee
struck out the qualifying word attempt

elimination" against American beef

REV. FATHER FLYNN DELIVERS
THE FIRST OF A SERIES OF SER
MONS.
st. Patrick's r. c. Church, Four
teenth and King streets, was crowdeu
Sunday evening by an appreciative con-
gregation to hear Rev. Father FLYNN,
ID. d., preach the first of a highly in
teresting series of Instructions upon
doctrinal points. The subject Sunday
night was The Necessity of Revela-
tion," and the eloquent divine handled
it in an able and mastery manner.
At the conclusion of the "Laudate
DOmini' by the choir during the YES
pei. service, Rev. Father Flynn ascend
ed the altar steps and said: "Revela-
tiOn in its definition means the unfold
ing of that which is hidden. On 1t
rests the foundation of faith. Without
1t religion would become utterly dl-
vested OF its safeguards, since all that
we know and believe through faith
comes to us first by revelation. The
| apocalypse of st. John, terminating as
IL does, all that is so important in the
| New Testament, is a notable example
/ of this. Astounding as those revela-
tions do and may appear, they have
received the sanction of the church
for their authenticity, and must be ac-
cepted as the revealed word Revela-
tiOn may be and is divided in two di-
visions-the natural and supernatural

MILL OWNERS MEET.
Adopt a Resolution TO Consider Extension
of Their Business In Georgia.


. BOSTON, Feb. 15.-The annual meet
ing Of the Massachusetts Cotton mills
of Lowell was held yesterday at the
office Of the treasurer. The annual meet
ing of the Massachusetts mills in
Georgia was also held.
Reports on the years business of the
two mills were presented TO the stock
holders. These stated that the mills in
Lowell, in common with other northern
manufacturers Of cotton goods, had suf-
fered from the depressed condition OF
the cotton goods market and low prices,
which were below what many classes
Of goods could be produced for under
the rate of wages obtaining In Massa-
chusetts.
On the other hand. the plant in
Georgia, making goods similar to those
made in Lowell. and obtaining the same
prices. owing to the lower cost of man
ufacture, due to cheaper wages, longer
hours, lower taxation and lower cost of
power, had been able to return a fair
profit Influenced by these results, the
following vote was passed unanimously
by the stockholders:
"In view of the fact that certain
products of the Massachusetts Cotton
mill at Lowell can be produced at the
mill in Lindale, Ca, for a lower cost
than they can be produced at Lowell, II
is therefore voted that the directors be
instructed to consider the possibility OF
an extension of the business in Georgia
and report thereon at some future meet
ing of the corporation"

CUBAN RESOLUTIONS
One Adopted by the Senate
Another Disapproved.
SPEECHES ON THE HAWAIIAN TREATY
House Adopts n Resolution Calling For
Information In Cuban Affairs-InquIry
Directed Into Germany's Disorim-
ination Against Our Products.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-During the
short open session of the senate yes
terday two phases Of the Cuban ques-
tion were adverted to briefly. The
amendment Of Mr. Allen (Neb) to
the diplomatic and consular appropria-
ton bill recognizing the belligerency of
the Cuban insurgents was reported ad-
versely by the foreign relations COM
mittee, not, as Mr.. Morgan explained,
on the merits of the amendment, but
because the committee did not approve
OF tacking such legislation to appropria-
tion bills.
Mr.. Morgan's resolution calling upon
the president for the reports of United
States consuls in Cuba and for informa-
tion as to whether any agent Of the
autonomous government in Cuba had
been accredited TO this government and
recognized by It was adopted without
dissent. A feature of the session was a
speech in advocacy Of the free coinage
of standard silver dollars by Mr.. Allen
(Neb). During the remainder of the
afternoon the senate was in executive
session.
Almost four hours were devoted in
executive session to the consideration
Of the Hawaiian treaty. The principal
this being the third installment of his
remarks upon the subject. Senator Pet
tigrew devoted himself largely to the
administration Of President Dole, show
ing how the government of Queen Lili-
uokalani had been overthrown, and to a
presentation of his views Of this gov
ernments participation in the revolu-
tion. He contended that the downfall
of the queens government was due TO
a conspiracy on the part Of Minister
Stevens, representing the United States,
and few citizens of Honolulu, of whom
President Dole was one, who were
backed by the marines from a United
States warship.
Following Mr.. Pettigrew. Senator Tel
Ter made a brief statement calling Mr.
Pettigrew's attention to the fact that
the United States minister was not the
only representative Of a foreign govern
ment who had recognized the Dole gov
ernment. Mr.. Pettigrew replied that
this was true, but that the recognition
of the other governments had not come
until the day follwing the queens abdi-
cation, whereas Minister Stevens rec
ognition had been before that time.
Senator Proctor of Vermont followed
with a brief speech in favor Of anneXa.
tion. He devoted himself exclusively t
the military phase of the question. III
cited the fact that England has strong
ly fortified posts all along our Atlantic
seaboard, beginning with Halifax anC
taking in the Bermudas and the Wes
Indies He also called attention to tn
strong fortress at Esquimault and saiC
that If England should possess the Ha
waiian islands, as she might easily do il
case we let this opportunity to acquir
them pass by, her drum beat would b
heard almost entirely around the Unite
States. and that she would be able {
attack us from her own territory in an
direction.
