TO REMAIN NEUTRAL.
Secretary Hay Informs Italy ms 10 o"n
Position In the Chinese
Question.

Washington, March 10.-The Italian
government, through its representa-
tives in Washington, lately laid before
the authorities here its purpose to ask
of China port on San Nun bay, ana
has invited an expression from this
government as TO its attitude. In re-
spouse ii is understood that Secretary
Hay, as well us the president, made IL
clear that the United States would
pursue the same course as towardthe
Russian, British and German occupa-
ton of Chinese ports, namely, disinter-
ested neutrality. The exchanges have
been verbal and rather informal. more
in the nature of diplomatic sonndings
than direct propositions. They have
given occasion to erroneous publica-
tons to the effect that Italy had asked
the United States to support her de-
mands on China, and that this govern
ment in pointed note from Secretary
Hay had refused. 1t is stated in an
eminent and authoritative quarter that
Italy made no such request for Amerl-
can support. and that there was no decli-
nation from this government.
London, March ia Rome CORE
spondent of the Daily Mail says the gov
eminent has ordered three more cruis-
ers to get in readiness to proceed to
Chinese waters in connection with the
demand OF Italy for concession at San
Nun, province of Che-Kiang. A dis
patch from Rome on Tuesday an
nounces that squadron of five Italian
cruisers, with 100 guns and $500 men,
would soon arrive at San Nun bay.
London, March 10.-The Shanghai
correspondent of the Daily Mail says
that Japan is supporting China in her
resistance to the Italian demands for
q concession at San Nun.

the assembly"
Would Punish the General.
Aguerro declared that Gomez was in
subordinate and should be punished,
and Sangilly insinuated that the gem
eral was traitor to Cuba. Much pas
sion was evident in the speeches, in
some of which Gomez was declared to
have been delinquent in his duties and
disobedient because he had accepted
the proposition of Robert =. Porter,
President McKinley's special emissary,
without consulting the assembly, be-
cause he had taken upon himself the
arrangements for the payment and dis
arming of the Cuban troops independ-
emit of the assembly and because he had
declared to the assembly that he would
observe its rulings in so far as he con-
sidered them beneficial to Cuba.
Three Millions Not Enough.

S3O0O00O is insufficient, and it has not
yet accepted the proposition. The dis
cussion of this question will soon be
taken up, now that Gen. Gomez has
been removed. Gonzales de Queseda,
who accompanied Mr.. Porter in Cuba,
was attacked by Gualberto Gomez, San
gully and Aguerro, who declared that
lie had acted in bad faith and had de-
ceived them. Agucrro likened the pres

to those that confronted the French
chamber when it was proposed TO i'm

amended by Aguerro.
People Denounce the Action.
The assembly is being strongly cen
sured by Cubans on all sides, and there
were popular demonstrations Sunday
afternoon in favor of the deposed COM
mander in chief, the crowds shouting
Long live Comet" and death to the
assembly," Gen. Gomez during the
day received numerous visitors, all of
whom assured him of their affection
and loyalty and that the declarations
by the assembly, on whatever subject,
couA-aet represent even the army. as
the elections which gave its members
their present positions are really void

says:
This is a beautiful country and the
people in my opinion are not half so bad
as they are sometimes pictured. Cen
turtles of bad government and bad treat
ment have made them suspicious and it
will be some time before we can persuade
them that we are not here for the pur-
pose of robbing them and making them
slaves. AS soon as they are assured of
our good will and intentions and we are
ena bled to show them by example that
we mean only for their good and well
rare | think we will find the Filipinos as
good Americans as any of our foreign
clement"
