Cuban independence

Two Republican leaders have
a sharp debate.

After the Bacon Cuban scandal

aside in the Senate and Senator
Spooner Rep, Wis. had resumed
his speech on the Philippine question,
he incidentally referred to the situa.
tiOn in Cuba and the responsibilities
Of the United States ther~.
Mr.. Hale Rep, Me-. interrupted
him to say that in view Of what had
happened in Cuba it would have

President Kruger
and the Situation in
the TranSvaal.
What are his Plans.

1t is announced by cable that
Presids MT Kruger, rather than suffer
the grief and humiliation Of perEo-
nally yielding up the Capital Of his
beloved country to the triumphant
forces of the hereditery foes of him
self and the Transvaal Republic, has
abandoned Pretoria and left there
merely provisional government
which can go through the form of
making terms with the English that
is to say, agreeing to such terms as
the British Commander in Chief,
Lord Roberts, may dictate.
But as for Dom Paul himself, it
would certainly appear to be a great
pity if the famous old man should
meet the fate of the Unfortunate
General CrOnje. And yet that the
same fate awaits him, if he falls intO
the hands Of the English, there can
be no question. Indeed, it may be
doubted whether, stung by the ma
merous defeats inflicted upon them
by the Beers, and incensed by the
immense losses in men and msney
sustained by them in the present war,
they would not even go to the length
of executing the old hero and his
leading supporters, were it not for
their respect for the public opinion
of the civilized world.
President Kruger will undoubtedly
endeaYor to make his escape and
there are many countries where he
would be welcomed and be in safety,
But the English will certainly watch
every outlet and it remains to he
seen what the result will be.

The Siege of
and how
it was relieved

AdviceS from London give the
following account of the last days
of the siege of Mafeking.
When England reads the story Of
her latest war, and how she taught
the Beers that Rooineks were not
the craven fellows they and been
tanght to think them, but rather
soldiers fit to cope with any fee, the
chapter which she will read with
keeneSt pleasure will bear the magic
name Matsking. And the hero of
that chapter is the hero of the war
so far as popularity goes, man who
does not yet wear his Victoria Cross
or his generals buttons, Though he
a0ill wear them soon-Colonel Baden
Powell. the man who beld 5000 men
at bay for 216 days and nights by
the sheer force Of genius.
1t is indeed a story to thrill the
blood. 1t can be said truly that the
man who withstands a siege success
fully is greater than he who taketh
a city. The patisnt valor which
aoaits and holds back the assault is
greater than the dashing valor of the
charging horSeman or the onrushing
bayonet asielder.
But the siege Of Mafeking is like
no other siege known to history.
Here was village of the plain, not
battlemented citadel. Here was
village oftEe plain, not a battlemen-
ted citadel. Here was town OF
little iron houses in the heart of a
prairie, town without natural de.
fences, nor with even the poor forti.
fcations of L2dysmith. Yet Baden
Powell, with 200 men, held it
agains. the men and metal of a force
twenty-five times the size of his own
held it successfully, triumphantly
held if against those other and
mole terrible foes of fever and fami.
ne, and the sapping or human
courage.
The relief of Mafeking, SO often
falsely reported, has only now been
actually made, and those who can
tell the sou.-stirring chapters Of a
story which win run the gamut Of
the emotions from grave to gay,
from tragedy to farce, are in no con.
ditiOns at present for weaving thrill
ing romances.
But Baden Powelps kafirs have

bsst thing 10 the world for us If We
lad done i, !" replied Mr.. HaIt. 'sI
think if il were found that the po-
rulation in CUBA was as hostile to US
as it had been to Spain we should
have abandoned it and been glad to
get rid of it"
"Wsll," replied MIR. Spooner,
"that is matter of opinion. In the
case l have put 1 believe we should
have taken Cuba and held it, giving
to the people of Cuba what they never
had had in the world individual
liberty and good government"
Mr.. Hale-The Senator has more
confidence than ]. have in the expe-
riment we are trying to-day of
teaching the people CT Cuba honesty
and good government. l think we
would have been better off if we had
not taught the Cubans the lesson
that has been taught it the last few
months.
Mr.. Spooner-Wat lesson?
Mr.. Hale The lessen of fraud,
peeulation, cheating, appropriation
Of revenues, stealing, carnival in
every direction of corruption and
fraud.
Mr.. Spooner-ItiE iE little tiresO-
me for me TO be called upon on this
side of the chamber to reply to a
Democratic speech.
Mr.. Hale-I am as good a Repu-
blican as the Senator from Wiscon-
sin. 1 do not recognize any party
obligations that compel me to con-
sent to the proposition that every
thing has gone right in Cuba.
Mr.. Spooner-Nobody pretends it.
Mr.. Hale--I do not think the
experiment has been failure. I
would vote to morrow to withdrew
from Cuba and leave that people to
establish and SET up and maintain
their own government. The time
asill come when Republicans will be
glad when we get out Of this thing
without worse things happening than
are now.

brought tidings through the lines
from time to time giving the outline
Of the tale. Baden Powell is an in
teresting study. Little known at the
outbreak Of the war, he was chisi1y
known to the army authorities as
scout of marvellous ability. And it
il as . scout that he was and proba-
bly, is most ambitious to be known.
His min1 has that peculiar qnali-
ty known as American. He is ac-
customed to think for himself, He
fights in the American fashion and
his defence of Mafsking has been ex-
pested of some shrewd YANKEE Off
Ger WHO had been doing business With
Indians and frontiersmen for years,
and who knew all the tricks of their
peculiar bushwhacking style of war
fare, a style quite similar to that of
the Beers.
He was in command of small
force at Mafeking when, long before
President Kruger's swift ultimatum
took Great Britain by surprise and
precipitated war, he made up his
mind that war was inevitable, aid
that when it came Mafeking weuld
be one Of the objectives Of the Boer
forces.

RUSSIA LOOKS TO
THE UNITED STATES
FOR A settlement
America Is Expected to Take
the Initiative In Peace
Negotiations.
Ii HUNG CHANGES STATUS

Some Governments Favorable tie Ac-
cepting Him as China's Representa-
tive; Others Desire a Prince of the
Reigning Dynasty-BritIsh View of
the Sstuation-Attitude Of Japan.
LONDON, Aug. 80.-Diplomatio circles
in London appear to be satisfied that
Russia has either directly sent circular
notes to the powers proposing the open
ing of peace negotiations or has reached
an agreement with the United States
with regard to the basis on which the
government at Washington will take
initiative action. Russia may prefer
the latter arrangement on the ground
that the United States has no entangle-
ments, like Manchuria, calculated to
arouse the suspicion of the powers.
Nothing definite, however, seems to
be known at the legations in London ex-
cept Russia'S great anxiety to end the
prevailing conditions as speedily as pos
sible, though the opinion Is expressed
that Russia believes, as a preliminary to
the negotiations, that the allied forces
should evacuate Picking and retire with
their resident ministers, Europeans and
native Christians to Tien Tsin, whence
they can better treat with the most re-
sponsible Cinnamon available.
It is pointed out that though some
governments are inclined to recognize
Ii Hung Changes powers there is feel
ing in some quarters that it would be
more satisfactory to all concerned and
would carry more weight with the Chi
nese themselves could some representa-
tive prince belonging to the reigning
dynasty be found with whom to arrange
terms.
If, however, Ii Hung Chang can Sc
cure any kind of credentials from the
dowager empress it seems to be the
opinion that his authority will not be
too closely scrutinized, except, possibly,
by Germany, especially if Ii Hung
Chang can demonstrate that he has the
support Of the powerful southern vice
rOys.

CHICAGO, Aug. 30.-Judge Leo Ras'

sition to any of the candidates. The
convention met pursuant to an adjourn
ment at o'clock sharp, and after some
triding matters Of routine nature had
been disposed of the selection Of a COM
mander-tn-chief was taken up. Adju-
tant General Stewart announced that

known to all what the result would be
as there was no opposition to Judge
Rassieur, and when Major William
Warner of Kansas City, himself past
Commander-in-ch chief, mounted the plat
form to present the name of Judge Ras-
sieur, he was greeted with prolonged
applause.
When the applause that greeted Ma
jor Warmers address had died away,
Past Commander Morrison of Pennsyl-
vania made a short seconding speech in
behalf Of Judge Rassleur, and Adjutant
General Stewart then asked if there
were any more nominations to be made.
A motion was made that Judge Rassieur
be declared elected by acclamation and
it was carried with roar Of applause,
The newly elected commander-in-chief
was escorted to the platform and ex-
pressed his thanks for the honor done
him by his comrades in brief speech OF
acceptance,
The election Of the junior officers was
quickly over, but one name being pre-
sented for each position and the candi-
date in every instance was accepted by
reclamation. Following the election
delegations from the various affiliated
societies were received and q miniature

The pension report was adopted with
out discussion, 1t being understood that
a determined effort will be made to in
duce congress to appoint court Of ap-
peals to have final jurisdiction in mat
tiers relating to pensions.

America Recognizes Him as
the Representative of the

CONsULs SO INSTRUCTED

Dispatches Bearing Upon the Subject
Sent to All American Representa-
tues In China-This Statement Is a
Result of a Protest by Russia Against
OBTAINING the Viceroy at Taku.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 80. Following is
the text of official communications re-
lating to China, which was telegraphed
to the representatives Of the United
States in Berlin, Vienna, Paris, London,
Rome, Tokyo and St. Petersburg, by
Acting Secretary of State Adee:
"The following note was received by
the United States from the charge of
the Russian government at this capital
Aug. II;
Il have just received a communica-
ton from the imperial government in
forming me of the resolution of the admi-
rails of the allied fleets interdicting the
plenipotentiary of the Chinese govern
ment, Ii Hung Chang, from all COM
munioation with the Chinese authori-
ties in the event of his arrival at Taku.
"'This resolution being inexplicable
in view of the fact that all the powers
have recognized the utility of admitting
his Lii Hung Chang's) services in the
eventuality of negotiations of peace, es-
pecially because it would be impossible
for him to fulfill his mission in the char
acter of Chinese plenipotentiary if this
were done; it would be desirable that
the interested governments should give
orders to countermand the above men,
toned decision.
enquiry of Admiral Remey, COM
manding our feet at Taku, was first an
swered that no such resolution had been
adopted. He now cables that the adj
mirals have agreed to write the dean of
case Ii Hung Chang should arrive at
Taku and, meantime, not to allow him
to communicate with Chinese authori-
ties. Remey dissented from the last
proposition.
"We take the same view expressed in
the Russian note. In the interest of
peace and the effective presentation of
the just demands of all powers against
China, it seems important that the Chi
nese plenipotentiary should be allowed
to communicate both with his own gov
eminent and it's military commandment,
whose action will be necessary to any
suspension of hostilities as required in
telegram to you of Aug. 20. The
Chinese minister here is without power
or advices. Ii Hung Chang is prima
facie authorized by an imperial decree
to negotiate, and is the only represen.
tative of responsible authority in China,
so far as we are advised. We have in
structed our representatives in China in
the spirit of the Russian note.
"Any misunderstanding or divergent
action on the subject by the representa-
tives of the powers in China would be
unfortunate, and we would be glad tC
learn from other powers if there are rea-
sons not known to us which, in their
Judgment, should lead to a view differ
ent from that which we take.
"You will communicate this to the
minister Of foreign affairs"

japanese Cause Trouble at Annoy In
Order to Occupy the Place.
HoNG-KoNG, Aug. 30.-The disturbed
situation in Annoy has been created by
the Japanese for the purpose Of aggres-
sion. For years Japan has covetously
regarded Annoy and her opportunity has
occurred. 1t was offered by a japanese
priests house In the city being burned.
The Chinese maintain that the priest
saturated his house with kerosene and
then charged them with arson. There
has been no riot and no trouble, but the
Japanese claim that a large number of
Japanese subjects require protection.
Japanese subjects are said to be Of the
Chinese criminal class, who escape JUS
tice and are registered in Formosa as
Japanese subjects for small fee.
