GRAVES DECORATED BY AUSTRlANS.
Two More Bodies Recovered From the Wreck.
 age.

Havana, March 1S.-Vistors to the Colon cemetery find the graves of the dead of the Maine decorated with many flowers, while from the central place of sepulchre waves a long streamer of red and yellow, with an inscription showing that the deco ration and flowers were placed there by the sailors of the Austrian warship Donau, ''In memory of our unfortunate fellow sail ors of the United States ship Maine."
 One Spanish and four American divers have been working the wreck today. This afternoon two bodies were recovered, but neither has been identified. One is the body of man apparently about 40, of me- dium height, with his right forearm tat tooed in a design of two hearts overlap ping and pierced by two daggers with a red tineed clover leaf above the hearts.
 The divers have recovered the ships ser vice plate and a six-pounder.

MORE RUM0RS s.::
 IN COSTA RIGA  An Uprising Seems to Be lmmi- nent Against Nlcar-
 agua.

Washington, March 1S.-Senor Calvo, minister of Costa Rica, furnishes the fol- lowing statement relative to the reported crisis between Nicaragua and Costa Rica:
 Because of the cablegrams from Mana qua, Nicaragua, to the press of the United States, in which unfounded charges are made against the government of Costa Rica, the Costa Rican legation in Washing ton has given to the public the report of the ex-consul, Senor Becho, who was thrown into prison by order of the execu- tive of Nicaragua without having previously cancelled his exequatur, or subsequently having proved any charge against him.
 "The report is preceded by some notes explanatory of the course pursued by the government of Costa Rdca, showing that it has acted fully within the line marked out by dignity and prudence having all the right on it's side fin the effort to brin g the government of General Zelaya, through the Diet, which is its organ, to the friendly recognition of the justice of its complaints and the validity of It's claims These notes demonstrate that its efforts in thds direc- tton have been unfortunately frulitless.
 ''1n tl1ds condition of things the govern ments of Costa Rica on the 7th instant was requested to give satisfaction within 
 rasuan political exiles over the Costa Rican frontier. The demand was immediately answered and naturally rejected.
 "It was learned that an envoy from Qua temala would arrive at San Jose from Nicaragua, with the basis for settlement. This, however, was unknown there.
 Costa Rica maintains her traditional good relations with all the other Central American states; she considers as her own everything that bodes good or i'll for them, and is personally interested also in the risks that the independence and autonomy of any of them may use. She has given abundant proof of this but in view of the actions of the government of Nicaragua the characteristic peaceful spirit of the in dustrious Costa Rican people has changed into a warlike and patriotic spirit. The whole people are ready for war inspired by the enthusiasm in thes cause. The in ternational order in the country is com plete. public opinion is a unit and, as at aM times, the constitutional regime re- mains in force unimpaired."

PALMA HAS ANOTHER OPINION.
He Does Not Think Cubans Will Accept Any
 thing but Liberty.

New York, March 1S.-That the Cubans are willing to end the strife in their island is without question, but while they are willing to pay Spain an indemnity, the leaders here are positive in their assertions that they are not weakening in the slight est degree, and are willing to continue the fight. The question of the amount Of in- ~demnity which might be paid in case such an agreement were feasible, was talked of earnestly by the officials of the Cuban jutna here.
 years ago and that which might seem req sonable now from the Cuban's point of view. may be gathered from the following reply to such a question, which Tomas Es- trada Palma made this afternoon,
 "At the beginning the war debt was $2oo'- GOO ooo but Cuba would not stand 1t and this was one of the reasons that the revolt was precfpitated.
 .In the beginning of 1898. after the in- vasion of the western provinces by the Cubans, the latter might have been will ing to pay $200, 900, ,000
 At the beginning of the dry season of 1se6-97 they would have paid $50 900, 900. but now they would give more, if as much, than $100, 0OO0
 Wouldn't Pay Anything
 'If the wet season should set in this year before such a agreement could be arranged, we would not think of paying anything.
 "The reasons for the decrease Tn the amounts are the increased chances of our success" continued MT. Palma, mot to speak of the destruction and desolation of the island that impair its productive ca- pacity.'
 It was rumored that message had been received in this city from Washington to the effect that the cabinet was favorably disposed to proposition from Spain pro- viding for the withdrawal of the Spanish troops from Cuba, leaving the Spanish flag floating there in case the United States fleet should be recalled from Key West. When MT. Palmas attention was called to this rumor, which purported to have its origin in an official quarter in Washington, he replied:
 ''Well that would satisfy the Cubans and I assure you we would see to 1t that tho Spanish flag would be very quickly SUD- planted by our own. Cuba fibre Is our motto and we will never agree, even ad interim, to the acceptance of anything short of absolute independence."

they had been at work for some time. When their absence was discovered they had about four hours start, and the Coal burg officials concluded that it was useless to attempt to track them with the blood hounds.
 From what could be learned the authori- ties inferred that they were headed for Birmingham and the police were furnished minute descriptions of the three and reward of $50 each was offered as an in- centive for their capture.
 Thought to Be Coming Home
 Bob O'Donnell has a mother and sister hviug at North Birmingham and it was but natural that he should pay them 8 visit as soon as he gained his liberty. no matter the risk he took in 50 doing. He had ample time to walk from Coalburg to his mothers home, speak few words to her and be gone again, before his absence was discovered, as CoaNburg is only eight or nine miles from her house. This was most likely dcne.
 The police authorities say that If he or Henry Kelly should elude the officers of the law and go to some distant city they would each be in jail again shortly, as 1t is second nature with them to steal.
 The theory that the convictS came to Birmingham Is strengthened by the fact that a one-horse carriage belonging to a negro hack driver was in Avenue A, between Nineteenth and Twentieth street, last night. A bicycle was also reported stolen, and at an early hour this morn ing the warden of the Bessemer city prison telephoned that bicycle had been found in that city, and that a horse had been stolen It is thought that the trio secured the horse and buggy and the bicycle ana made to Bessemer, where the bicycle was discovered and another horse taken in its place.

to the throne. His father, Philippe, Count of Flanders, is the only brother of King Leopold. The two brothers are near of age, and 1t Is likely that both will die within this century, as they are over sixty and not very strong.
 After the death of King Leopold comes Prince Philippe and then his son, Albert, of Belgium. Prince Albert was born in 1875 He is an officer in the belgian army. His mother is Princess Marie, of Hohenzol- lern-Sigmaringen.
 On his fathers side he is related to Queen Victoria. He is strong and healthy and has lived a good life.

POSTAL BILL
 NOT COMPLETED Merits of Pneumatic Tube Sys- tenn Debated All
 Day.

Washington, March 1S.-The house spent another day on the postoffice appropriation bill, but only disposed of two pages of it. Most of the day was devoted to adebate on the merits of the pneumatic tube mail service in New York, Boston and Philadel- phia, and the advisability of continuing existing contracts.
 An effort to strike out the appropriation of s225, 900 was defeated, but its opponents succeeded In securing the adoption of an amendment providing that no additional contracts should be made. An amendment was adopted making it a misdemeanor for any person to pad" the mails during the period when the mails are being weighed to determine the compensation to be paid to the railroads for their transportation. The amendment was recommended by the department The conference report on the agricultural bill was agreed to.
 MT. Cooper (dem.) of Texas offered an amendment, providing that the star route contracts should be made only with per sons residing in the states and territories through which the routes pass He said the practice of making contracts with star route syndicates should cease. The amendment was ruled out on point of order.
 MT. Moon (dem.) of Tennessee made a point of order against the appropriation of $225 900 for pneumatic tube service. The point of order was overruled and the ap-
 
 letter from the postoffice department con- cerning the stuffing of the mails during the weighing period, MT. Loud submitted the draft of an amendment drawn at the department. It made 1t misdemeanor to place. or cause to be placed in the mails during the regular weighing period with the intent to increase the weight of the mails and the compesation paid therefor. It made the offense punishable by fine of not less than $500 nor more than $20O and Imprisonment not to exceed five years.
 The amendment was adopted without division Several other amendments were ruled out on points of order. All were d- rected at the appropriation bill for rail- road transportation, One proposed to ere ate a commission to investigate the subject of mall transportation and another to re- duce the amount to s15.000,00O. Without completing the bill, the house, at bp. m, adjourned until tomorrow.

When Prince Albert, of Flanders, set sail for these shores ten days ago 1t was said that he came in search of an Amer ican wife to replete the drained coffers of Belgium and to restore to her empty crown the long-lost jewels.
 Whether looking for a wife not, the prince, who Is travelling as a baron, has made himself so popular in his short stay here that no one will begrudge him the luxury of beautiful and rich American wife, even were he so fortunate as to win one.

THREE CONNECTS
 MAKE THEIR ESCAPE Bob O'DOnHOll and Harry Kelly, Birmins-
 ham Burglars SENT UP FOR LONG TERMS JOO Ward, Who Has Serving Life Sen-
 tenCe For Murder.
TRIO TUNNELED THEIR NAY OUT
Got Four Hours Start of the Officers at Mine, Police and Shsriff's Office Was Noiied, But No Trace Found
 of the Fugtives.

Bob ODonnell, Harry Kelly and Joe Ward, three long term prisoners, made their escape from Coalburg last night, 1t is supposed about 6 o'clock.
 Their absence was not discovered until about 10 o'clock. The sheriff's office and tho i.oli,e department were at once notified and all the officers were instructed to keep a sharp lookout for the escapes. The po- lice officers and deputy sheriffs needed no description of O'Donnell or eKlly, as they are well-known characters in the local annals of crime.
 They broke into the Cincinnati dye works some time ago and stole therefrom everything portable it contained. About $500 worth of booty was secured. Officers of the law soon found out that they were the guilty parties, however, and Judge Bill bro, of the circuit court, who was presid- ing in the place of Judge Banks, sentenced O'Donnell to fifteen years and Kelly to ten years in the mines They were car ried to Pratt mines, but on account of a change in the lease with the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railway company they were transferred to Coalburg.
 Doing Time for Murder
 Joe Ward was serving a life sentence for murder, and was sent up from another county.

General Fitzhugh Lee, who is now in
Washington, will, it is understood, be a
member of the commission appointed to ar
range the terms for the withdrawal of the
Spanish forces from Cuba 1t is work for
which he is particularly well qualified His
knowledge of military matters is thorough
his Judgment is good and his acquaintance
with conditions in Cuba and the require
ments of the difficult situation there is such
as no other public man of his grade in this
country possesses. The appointment If
made, will be very generally applauded
But, important this work is, the work
that is to follow will be still more impor-
tant- With Spain as a disturbing quantity
out Of the way, order must be restored and
government organized on an entirely new
basis, and the people of the island taught
to respect and obey the new arrangement
To the task of executing work like that
man should bring not only familiarity with
the old and superseded conditions, but firm
ness of purpose, experience in civil affairs
and an established character for fair deal
irg. What batter selection, therefore, could
the President make for that work also than
General Lee? Why not when the one task
is finished continue him at Havana in such
capacity as will insure the proper execution

American D;nInulacy

The American triumph seems complete.
The valor of the army and navy is highly
praised. The craftsmanship at sea is the
marvel of the world. The kindly treatment
of the Spanish prisoners exctes both ad-
miration and gratitude. 1he terms of the
peace protocol are generous i'll an uneNam-
pied degree. And now there is applause
from abroad for American diplomacy!
That is victory, indeed.
We have long been regarded as hopelessIy
short diplomacy. We have been lee
tured and condoled with on that score At
tention has been directed to our crudeness,
our lack of forms and ceremonies, and so
forth. The learned foreigner has observed
with pain, and at times with displeasure
that we invariably fail to discuss interna-
tiOnal questions eithar with due apprecia-
ton of their Importance or with due regard
to the polite requirements of such negotfa-
tons. But it is conceded now that so far,
in the business with Spain, though pursuing
the old, crude and direct methods, the
United States has won in diplomacy as in
the field of war. The whole result is in
Justification of its methods of managing
large affairs.
The recognition of this fact is entitled to
all the more attention because it cornes
from England 1t was by England that
our supposed deficiencies were first pointed
out The phrase "shrt-sleayes diplomacy
was coined there and applied TO us Now
there is a change of view. Very great
merit is discovered in our frank aid

ness, and hope is expressed that England

Cuba the attitude of this government as de-
clared by Congress. In fact the influence
of his official acts and reports while consul
general at Havana had no little to do with
bringing about American Intervention in be-
half of the Cuban people. He confirmed the
stories of Spanish oppression, he justified
the revolt of the people, he gave his SYM
pathies to the reconcentrados and described
their awful plight in terms which touched
the heart of this country. His services
throughout, indeed, were all on the side of
laying before his government the truth
about situation which in every respect
was a reproach to civilization.
That General Lee incurred the displeasure
OF the Spaniards, in Cuba and elsewhere, is,
of course. well known. But that is to his
credit. The question now is not Spanish in
any of its aspects. 1t relates solely to Cuba
and America, and General Lee enjoys to
the full the respect and confidence of the
people of both countries.
