spaaiaFds In Havana DO Not Favor indie.
psndence Of Cubs.
New YORK, Feb. "A special from
Havana says: A committee of Span
iards in Havana has issued . strong ap-
peal to their compatriots throughout the
island to unite for the purpose Of bring.
ing about the annexation of Cuba to
the United States.
The appeal repudiates Indignantly any
desire on the part of the Spaniards on
the island to join the proposed new In
dependence party, now in process Of or
ganization by Joaquin Castillo.
1t states that 100000 Spaniards are
ready to vote for annexation, and this
number would be largely augmented by
Cubans of wealth, position and influence,
who do not wish to see the revolution
ary party in the ascendant.
The committee believe that If vote
were to be taken today on the broad is
sue, the result would be decidedly in
favor of union with America, even if
the negro element in Eastern Cuba was
allowed to exercise free franchise.
Steps will be taken by the Spaniards
to put their views before the American
administration, as they believe if an in
dependent government is contemplated
in the near future, the trade Of the ISL
and will be brought to an immediate

New York. Feb. 4.-What many of
Bishop Henry G. Potter's friends call
his twentieth century saloon" is now
assured. The last dollar Of the fund Of
$15, 900 needed to start the work Of pro-
viding substitute for the saloon, which
shall have all the attractions of the
saloon, minus intoxicating drinks. has
been contributed. Carpenters will be-
gin the work of tearing out the heart of
the 6-story building at 131 Bowery, and
as speedily as possible it will be fitted
up as Squirrel Inn No. l." Bishop
Potter hopes in 10 years there will be in
this city Squirrel Inn No. 100," and
they will solve the great social problem
of providing for those who like to pat
ronize the saloon something they will
like better. Bishop Potter believes the
saloon exists because it meets want,
but he also believes it meets in it way
destructive to home and all the name
stands for. His idea of twentieth
century saloon" is that it should be a
big, CHEEKY place, accessible as the sa-
loon, where q man may get q clean,
we'll cooked meal at cheap rate, some
form of entertainment, and where he
can read his newspaper, smoke his pipe
and talk with his fellows, with free
dom tempered by good behavior "a
place that will only differ from the
saloon in that it sells no intoxicating
liquors.

rious resolutions intefpretative Of: the
peace treaty took an acute turn late in
the day. The opposition to vote first
came from the friends Of the treaty,
who advanced the theory that it should
be ratified without compromise. Those
who were willing that.a vote should be
taken, now hold an opposite view and
absolutely refuse to agree to . time fol:
taking vote. !. The contest, occurred in
the executive session, which, did not oc-:
cur until $50 p, m. The next hour and
q quarter was spent in asvain endeavor
on the one side to get,an agreement to q:
vote on the resolutions and on the other
to bring the days session. to, g. close
without allowing anything to be &C.
complished in that direction.
When Senator Davis asked that q
time be fixed for vote the
Opposition strongly objsetsd.
They declared that to consent to q vote
on the resolutions at this late day after
delay of 80 many days would create
the impression that the opponents Of the
treaty had been posing for effect and
had allowed themselves to be tricked,
either ignorantly or knowingly. The
friends of the treaty declared that they
were acting in perfect good faith. They
said that all Of the time Of the senate
for the past week had been occupied in
performing duties under the orders or
consent of the senate, and there had not
within that period been time when
the vote could haye been taken. They.
charged that the opposition were afraid
to allow an opportunity to vote on the
resolutions because of the apprehension
that some Of the resolutions would be
agreed to and the chances Of the rati-
6cation Of !. the treaty thus approved.
