CUBA TO BE ANNEXED.
aLember OF the Senate Says It VIII BE
Brought About by "NAturaI Pro-
cess of Transition"

Washington, Jan. 13.-When the
currency bill shall have passed the
senate, the committee on relations
with Cuba will visit Cuba thoroughly
to familiarize the members with the
social, Industrial and political con-
ditions in the island and to learn from
actual observation how much time
viii be required to bring Cuba under
the influence of American ideas and
American methods.
1t is evidently the prevailing senti-
ment among the members of this
committee that the annexation Of
Cuba will ultimately result, and per-
haps at no distant day. In the mean
time the Cubans will have that indie
pendence promised them in the reso-
lutions of congress which brought
on the war with Spain. According
to one member of the committee,
annexation will be brought about by
a perfectly natural process of transit
ton" 1t is with this in view and
with the object of finding ways and
means to accomplish this transition
that the senate committee will visit
the island.

RUSHED THROUGH GoRGEs.
Wonderful Feat of an American Cavalry
Squadron from BInang Through ST.
lang, in South Luzon.

Manila, Jan. 13-The rush of the
cavalry squadron from Binang
through Slang was a wonderful per-
Torrance. The men passed through
gorges where 20 Beers could have
stopped an army and struck the in
surgents' rear guard in the hills near
Carmona. Thereafter, the rebels
made a headlong rush to escape,
scattering in all directions and drop
ping their rifles as they ran. They
also abandoned one cannon. Several
bull carts were overtaken. The pre-
cipitate fight of the rebels prevented
the destruction by them of the
bridges over the gorges. If these
bridges had been destroyed, it would
have been impossible for the troopers
to cross.
The insurgents who fed before Gen.
Schwan's cavalry charge to Slang
have taken refuge in the mountain
range which cuts Cavite province in
two, extending east and west. 1t will
be difficult work for the Americans to
get at them as the country is almost
impregnable.

ABUSED THE PRESIDENT.
enator PettIgrew Made Some Sensational
Charges in Regard to Suppression of
Affairs About FIIipInOs-

Washington, Jan. 12.-In the sem
ate yesterday Senator Pettigrew, of
South Dakota, made sensational
charges against the president and
Gen. Otis about Philippine affairs.
The resolution of the South Dakota
senator, regarding attempts to open
negotiations with the FiIipinOs, was
taken up.
Senator Lodge offered an amend
ment to include any information COM
ing to the war department of plans of
people in the Philippines in arms
against the United States as to the
projected uprising in the city of Ma
Mia for the destruction of foreign
property and massacre of residents;
also regarding treatment of prisoners
by insurgents. Mr.. Lodge referred to
the published reports of the plan to
throw dynamite bombs during the
funeral of Gen. Lawton to create di-
version during which an uprising was
to occur. His amendment also COW
cred information regarding the anti
| imperialistic utterances which were
being disseminated among the insur-
gents and alleged documents circu-
lated among the United States sol
diers serving in the Philippines last
summer urging them not to re-enlist.
Information regarding all these facts
Mr.. Lodge said should be known.
Mr.. Hoar assented to Mr.. Lodges
plan, but said he should also like to
include the presidents instructions
to the peace commissioners in Paris.
| But he presumed there would be OBJ
jections to that and he would not
press it. But he should, however,
press the request for all instructions
to the Philippine commissioners.
Mr.. Pettigrew insisted upon sepa-
rate action upon his resolution. He re-
ferred feelingly to the manner in
which his resolution of December IA
was shelved on the ground that it
would be Immediately telegraphed to
the insurgents but in reality to pre-
vent the American people from know
ing the facts. His present resolution
called for specific facts and should be
passed. Mr.. Pettigrew said:
''The resolution of Senator Lodge
should read if not incompatible with
the interests of a candidate. for re-
election The whole conduct of adj
ministration senators here is in line
with the policy of concealing the
news and suppressing the facts
He charged that the United States
commenced the war first by the proc
lamation by the pesident in December,
1898, and afterwards by firing the
first shot and killing the first man.
eff were a Filipino said Mr.. Petit
grew, 81 would fight until I was gray
against this policy of criminal ag-
gression.''
Mr.. Pettigrew charged that vital
parts had been suppressed in Otis re-
port; that the news of the Sulu trea-
ty had been mangled and suppressed
until the Ohio election and that Gen.
Otis had altered the presidents proc
lamation before he issued it. Otis
had defrauded the Filipinos and the
administration and had humbugged
the American people.

PERILs OF THE SEA.
a Steamer Wrecked an the Newfoundland
Coast and All on Board Lose
Their Lives.

ST. Johns, N. F., Jan. 13.-A two
masted steamer of nearly 5000 tons,
and which probably carried crew of
80, with some passengers, was wrecked
in st. Mary's bay. She went ashore
before daybreak on Thursday, strik-
ing ledge at the foot of the cliff,
where escape was hopeless. The crew
launched the boats, but probably dur
ing the panic some were crushed
against her sides, others being
swamped, and all the occupants APP
parently perishing. The ship was
seen to be on fire by residents six
miles away. Attracted to the scene
they found the after half of the wreck
blazing iercely, and the fore part
under water. Kerosene in the cargo
helped the blaze. There is not the
slightest prospect that any soul on
board escaped death as the intense
mid-winter cold would kill any who
escaped drowning.

Deafness cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infamed you have rumbling
sound or Imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases of of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an iniamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness .(caused by catarrh that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.
