INFLUENTIAL CUBAN WOMAN
Madame Cespedes an Important Factor in
National Councils.
Her Late Husband Was the First
President of the IsIand-Her
Sons Ambition.

HAVANA May 3.-The future of Cuba
will probably be largely Influenced by a
woman, Madame Cespedes, whose salon is
visited by the best known men, not only OF
Havana, but of the entire island. General
welcome guest of this lady, and dimes with
her from three to five times week
Madame Cespedes Is the widow Of the
first president of Cuba in the ten years
war, and decisions reached at her salon are
far more effective than any decree passed
by the recently defunct Cuban assembly.
Men of standing who are devoted to the
principle of Cuban national Independence
are welcomed to the salon and assist in it's
councils. 1t is believed by persons who are
in position to know that a full under
standing has been reached by Madame Ces-
pedes and General Gomez regarding Cuba s
future and the first real president of the
proposed republic, for all former presidents
have had office without power At one
Tune General Gomez was seriously consid-
cred Tor the presidency, but after the action
OF the assembly in assailing his course it
was considered that his candidacy would
pr0paply meet with strong opposition.
Inc result of consultations at Madame
cespedes salon is, 1t is asserted, that the
first president of Cuba shall be Carlos
Cespedes, son Of the war president
The party Of General Goniez believe that
II is none too early to begin a movement
in behalf Of Carlos Cespedes as they ex-
pect that American occupation of the is
land VIII end before next summer and
probably by April. 1900. 1t is represented
that Carlos Cespedes possesses every quail
ny mat Is likely to make him popular with
the masses throughout the entire island
ne Is about forty years old and is I'M
married.

THE SPEAKERSHIP CONTEST
Gen. Henderson Strongly Opposed to Having
Sectional Issue Made.
He Expects to Have support From
Eastern States Presenting
No Candidate.

Gen. Henderson of Iowa who is in Wash
ington for a day, is strongly opposed to
having a sectional issue made in the speak
ership contest. He says it would be an I'M
fortunate thing If such an issue We're forced
and he hopes and believes 1t will not be.
He expresses himself as well satisfied with
his own prospects and Goes not base his
canvass on any sectional consideration. His
own state is supporting him, not only solid
ly, but with enthusiasm. and he is counting
on friends in the east and south as well as
in the west.
In most of the speakership talk up to this
time 1t has been assumed that the east
would be lined up SOLELY for one candi-
date from that section. Cen Henderson,
friends do not expect to see that 1t is said
that Gen. Henderson has as good reason to
expect support from among the DELEGATIONS
of Pennsylvania. Massachusetts, New Jer-
sey and other eastern states, except New
York which has a candidate. as has an
eastern candidate, unless there is to be an
understanding by which the east is to vote
solidly. If the east is solid the west may
be. but otherwise there will be a very con-
siderable element in the west opposing
seotionalism.
the House has many friends in both the
east and south as well as In the west
where he is, of course, particularly strong
Candidates Who Will Stick
1t Is not believed that at any time dur
ing the contest either Henderson or Hop-
kins will withdraw, and therefore there
is no probability of the west concentrating
Its forces on one man. 1t is almost as
certain that a number of western men
Will be found supporting Sherman. Both
Henderson and Hopkins will try for the
delegations or the votes Of individual mam-
bers representing districts in the eastern
states which do not present candidates.
A letter has been received from Repre-
sentative Payne of New York by a friend
OF his here saying that he is going to be
an active candidate to the finish and that
! some people who ara talking Of his with
craving Will be greatly surprised before
| they get through with 1t. His friends say
| that he expects to show decided strength
when the campaign opens and that he
| will go into the contest with the expecta-
! ton of winning, and not merely to make a
demonstration.
Representative Dalzell, who is here ar
| ranging for one Of the captured Spanish
! guns for park at Pittsburg says that
| the Pennsylvania delegation is not pledged
| to any speakership candidate. and that
| he has not decided yet whom he will sup
| port.
