IN THE HOUSE.
Grosvenor Explains Statement He
Made During the Cuban Debate.

WASHINGTON, April 19.-The House
presented a most desolate appearance
when it convened at noon, after the
weary all-night session.
While the journal was being read,
Hager CR.) of Iowa, Chairman of the
Committee on Enrolled Bills, brought
in the Cuban resolutions, which had
been enrolled under his personal direc-
ton. The Speaker Immediately signed
them, and as soon as the reading of the
journal was completed, at 1916 p. M,
he announced his signature.
There was no demonstration. The
Enrolling Clerk at his side seized the
resolutions and hurried with them
across the Capitol.
Grosvenor then, as question of per-
sonal privilege, had read at the Clerk s
desk an editorial in a New York paper
commenting on his statement in the
House on April 7th that this war would
be fought under the banner of the Re
publican Administration of this Gov
ernment, or it would not be fought at
all.
Grosvenor explained the circumstan-
ces under which the statement was
made He had been delighted with the
record the Democratic party had made,
and in the statement he only meant
that as the present Administration had
three years to run, that the war which
was on US must be fought during its
life. or not at ALL He had meant no re-
flection, and had appealed to the House
to stand by the Executive, who had
been assaulted.
I'm this connection" concluded Gros-
venor, II desire to say / believe this
war will be energetically Waged, both in
a military sense and in the manner
necessary to carry it on, and L believe
the response to the call to arms will be
unanimous There will be no political
division It will come from Democrats
and Populists as well as Republicans.
and especially do 1 believe the response
will come from every Southerner, and
the whole nation will share the trium-
phant echo of loyalty" Great ap-
plause.)
Dingley stated that in view of the
fact that the House had been sitting
all night, and that the members were
weary, he would move to adjourn
Accordingly, at 1882 p. m, the
House adjourned.

was indulged in this morning by the

that point
Bacon of Georgia continued the dis
cussion of the position of the Demo-
Gratis, taking the same position he took
last night, that as the Democrats had
voted time and again in support Of
their position, so they voted to sustain
it by opposing the conference report.
which struck out the provision for rec
ognition of independence.
Bacon and Spooner fell into a tech
nical discussion as to what was i'm
piled in vote for a conference report,
in which many Senators participated.
Bacon declared that the resolutions
would have become a law if the Turpie
amendment had prevailed the only diff
ference being that in that event the in
surgent Government would have been
recognized To this proposition many
Republicans shouted mo no." in uni
son, but none attempted at that time
to explain the reasons for their dis
sent.
All this had been in the way of in
terruption during Cockrell's speech He
resumed at this point his discussion of
the Presidents policy, which he con-
tended from the Presidents own Ian
guage meant intervention in the shape
of hostile constraint' upon both par
ties to the Cuban war; upon the Gu
bans as much as upon the Spaniards.
He contended that this policy only look
ed to a pacification of the island OF
Cuba, not to the expulsion of the Span
iards or the establishment of Repub-
lie in Cuba.
Without concluding his speech, Cock
rell yielded for an executive session at
4 40 D. m.
At 500 the Senate adjourned.

WASHINGTON. April 19.-Compara-
lively little business was transacted by
the Senate to-day, all of the Senators
being fatigued on account of their long
vigil last night over the Cuban resolu-
tions. Consideration of the sundry
civil appropriation bill was resumed
and the wide latitude of debate per
mitted under the rules of the Senate
afforded opportunity for explanations
to be made concerning the action in
the Senate upon the Cuban question.
Cockreu of Missouri and Bacon OF
Georgia explained the action of the
Senate in voting against the confer
ence report in the early hours of the
Senate, and the colloquies that ensued
between them and some of the Republi-
can Senators were spicy and interest
ing. A running fire of debate was pre-
cipitated, which was participated in by
Mantle of Montana, Cannon of Utah,
Hale of Maine. Spooner of Wisconsin
and others, the discussion lasting about
three hours.
At the opening of the session the eX-
citing and momentous scenes of the
past week had given way to a dull and
sombre routine The attendance on
the floor and in the galleries was small.
At 1927 p. m. a message was re-
ceived from the House of Representa-
tives announcing the signature of the
Speaker to the Cuban resolutions. Eight
minutes afterwaTd the Vice-President
announced his signature to the Cuban
resolutions.
In accordance with his announcement
made yesterday that he proposed to in
L0 Of
ban republic, Allen of Nebraska offered
the following resolution, which was re-
ferred to the Committee on Foreign
Relations:
That the political independence of
the Republic of Cuba, the capitol of
which is located at Cubitas is hereby
recognized by the United States of
America as the lawful government of
the Island of Cuba and that the United
States hereby pledges to said republic
it's friendly offices in the adjustment
of its financial affairs with the King
dom of Spain or the holders of Spanish
bonds or Indebtedness issued against or
made chargeable to Cuba; that so far
as the influence of the United States
may properly be exercised, it will insist
that said republic shall not be charged
with the bonded or other Indebtedness

PROF. MARCOU DEAD.
Was Famous Throughout the
World as a Geologist.

NEW YORK, April 19.-Professor
Jules Marcou, famous throughout the
world as a geologist, is dead at his
home at Cambridge, Mass.
Born in Calins, Jura, France, April
20, 1924 he was educated at the Col
lege of Besancon and afterWard at the
ST. Louis College in Paris. AS travel
ing geologist for the Jardin des Plan
tes, he visited this country and Canada,
accompanying Professor Agassiz on
his trip to the Lake Superior region in
1S4S A fine collection of minerals
which he had made he forwarded to
Paris in the following year. Later he
directed his attention to the geology of
New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Virginia
and the Mammoth Cave
After a short visit to Europe, in 1850,
he returned to this country and pub
lished his geological map of this coun-
try and the British North American
possessions. Entering the geological
service of the United States he was the
first geologiSt to cross the country, and
he made a section map of the thirty
fifth parallel from the Mississippi River
to the Pacific Ocean. His impaired
health compelled a return to Europe in
1855, and from that year to 1859 he
held a professorship in the Polytechnic
School in Zurich.
In 1861 he returned to the United
States and, with Professor Agassiz,
founded the Museum of Comparative
Zoology, in which he had charge of the
archaeological division. From 1864 to
1875 he devoted himself to scientific
research and became strong support
er of the Taconic system of New York,
publishing many papers on the sub
ect. In 1871 he again entered the ma
tional service, with which he was con-
nected until few years ago.
Professor Marcou was decorated with
the Cross of the Legion of Honor in
1867. and was a member of many sci
entific societies here and abroad. He
had published many works on scien-
tific. geological and geographical sub
jects both in this country and France.
