Republican National Committee

Republican National Committee
Meeting.-Whether Mr.. Hanna decides to
tender his resignation when the Republican
National Committee assemblies at the Ar
lington on Thursday the gathering is
bound to be an interesting one In any
event. 1t will mark the opening of the
Presidential campaign of 1900. Ordinarily
the only important business to be trans
acted by the national committee at this
time would be the fixing of the time and
place for holding the next Republican Ma
tionaI Convention, but a matter Of almost
equal interest will, it is understood, be
brought up at the forthcoming meeting
Mr.. Payne, Of Wisconsin, has prepared a
resolution recommending changing the
basis Of the representation in future Re-
publican national conventions and will ask
the committee to vote on it. Mr.. Payne's
idea is to have the delegates to future Re
publican national conventions appOTtiOned
among the several States in proportion to
the number of Republican voters in each
The purpose is to give the roek-ribbed Re
publican States of the North and West a
preponderating influence in the delibera-
tions of the national conventions. Serious
opposition to the passage of the Payne
resolution is anticipated but it comes
chiefly from the representatives Of the
States whose numerical strength in the ma
tional councils of the party would be cut
down if the proposed change should be
made. The mere passage of the Payne
resolution next Thursday will not material
ly affect the situation, as it will only be
an expression of opinion and have no bind
ing force. 1t is not proposed to change the
basis Of the Republican representation at
the next national convention. and even if
next years Republican National Conven-
tion should adopt new system of repre-
sentation at future national conventions it
would not of necessity be binding on them.
Each national convention, it is asserted. is
a law unto itself and can do as it pleases
in the matter of seating and unseating
delegates. However, the Southern Repub-
licans are bitterly opposed to the passage
Of the Payne resolution. as they regard
it as an entering wedge in a movement to
deprive them of their rights.

Fight Against AddIcks May Result IN

Fight Against Addicks May Result in
Senator Gray's Recollection.
Dover, Del, Feb. 4.-The regular Re
publicans, who have been voting for
Colonel Henry A. Dupont to succeed
Senator George Gray in the fight
against ]. Edward Addicks, went into
a conference last evening with State
Chairman Browne, State Secretary
Heald and other Dupont representa-
tives. The conference was adjourned
until this afternoon, when a proposition
to take up some Republican upon whom
the regulars can bend their entire
strength will be considered.
The claims OF Addicks' chairman
Alice, that Addicks would positively
be elected at this session have unques-
tionably agitated the regulars. One
rumor is that they will take up some
independent Republican and give the
Addicks men ten days in which to de-
sert their man, at the expiration OF
which time enough regulars will vote
with the Democrats to re-elect George
Gray. Nearly all the conferrees deny
this story. Representative Kitchens,
however, when besleged by an Ad-
dicks adherent, declared: "You fel-
lows will drive us to vote for Gray"
Another assemblyman said after the
conference: IT am opposed to dealing
with Democrats, but we are sent here
to beat this man Addicks"

OUR SOLDIERS IN CUBA.
Most Of Them, Says Mr., Porter,
Should Be Withdrawn.
LET GJBANs DO THE POLICING.

Presidents Commissioner Declares
That the Cubans Have Already shown
Their Ability TO Maintain order-our
Soldiers Guarding Each other.
Havana, Feb. 4-Mr. Robert p. Por-
ter. before sailing for Miami made the
following statement to the press:
while the situation here has been
Improved and slmpliied by the dec
laratlon Of General Gomez that he will
Immediately take part in the paclfica-
tlon Of Cuba, the advantage thus gain
ed should be followed up by the Amer
lean authorities. The entire policing
OF the Island should be done by the
Cubans themselves. The real police
work is in fact now in the hands OF
Cuban soldiers. and law and order are
well maintained. There should not be
moments delay in the organization
and equipment Of these civil guards.
THE bulk Of American soldiers must
be taken out Of Cuba by April. There
is really no necessity for more than
two regiments in each province. to
serve as a background OF support for
the Cuban police. In giving the best
Of these people employment all the
more will be left OF the relief fund for
those who must he helped back to the
land.
The feeling Of distrust between the
Cubans and the Americans has been
temporarily checked by the message Of
General Gomez to president Mckinley
and the presidents reply II the
younger military elements Of both
armies will now get together and COM
plete the several schemes for policing
the provinces, which at this moment
are awaiting capitalization. the prob
lem will be solved Delay In this work
VIII be fatal. If such men as General
Gomez, General Monteaguedo. Of Santa
Clara province, General Mayia Rodri-
guez, Of the province OF Pinar del Rio.
General Pedro Betancourt Of Matanzas
province, and others whom l know per-
sonally will assure President McKin-
ley and Governor General Brooke that
law and order will be maintained their
pledge will be carried out at any cost.
There is too much disposition to dis
cuss minor details. There Is too much
hesitancy I'm bringing matters to a
head. In the province Of Santa Clara
MonteaRuedos admirable policing plan
has been already put in operation, and
II Is one, as General Leonard Wood
told me yesterday, which IS along right
lines. The entire police Work In that
province, so Major Logan. provost
marshal, informed me. has been done
by Cubans since the evacuation.
"Why not take up at once and dis
pose Of this matter? Things must be
kept moving in Cuba or summer will
overtake us with too many troops here.
Our soldiers themselves fully realize
- rTHN-
their chief occupation Is to guard each
other, while their chiefs in Washington,
Havana and Remedies are exchanging
condolences. The younger officers on
both sides should come together and
evolve preliminary policing plans and
get these into working order without
delay. Once this is well done. matters
will take care Of themselves in Cuba.
At least. that Is my opinion"

Poverty stricken Hero OF Manila


Philadelphia, Feb. 4.-John Walsh, a
gunner's mate on the cruiser Baltimore,
who participated in the destruction of
the Spanish fleet in Manila bay, arrived
in this city last night penniless and
was forced to seek refuge in the CEN
tral police station. Walsh, whose
home is in Chicago, says he was en-
route to Brooklyn navy yard, and when
the train was east of Pittsburg he fell
asleep and was robbed o. his ticket
and a small amount of money. The
conductor brought him on to this city.
Here, he says, he succeeded in getting
20 cents, with which he bought his
supper. Then he tried to get shelter
at several charitable institutions, but
was turned away, and he went to po-
lice headquarters. Walsh will prob
ably be furnished with transportation
to Brooklyn.
