ance We're filed with Governor Nash
They We're copies of resolutions signed
by the pastors of over thirty of the
German Protestant churches in this
city indorsing the stand he has taken
and protesting against allowing the af-
fair to proceed. This action, it is
thought will offset that Of other Ger
man churches in favor of allowing the
contest to proceed.
Sentiment here is Overwhelmingly
against the fight. The opposition did
not develop rapidly at first, but grad
ually it became evident to the city and
state officials that the better class OF
citizens are almost to a man opposed to
allowing the contest. Strong opposition
has come from quarters where It was
not expected. And the futile attempt
some weeks ago to get Signature to a
petition to allow the fight to proceed
from members on change showed tha t
the business men s a rule are Lined UP
against the boxers.
On this account as we'll a $ the firm
stand taken by Governor Nash. few
people believe the fight can be 1llled
off here.

WoULD PROTECT CUBA.
President Mckinley Has Plans With
Reference1tO the Island


Washington, Feb. S.--The republican
leaders in congress, after frequent con-
sultation with the president and secre-
tary of war. are gradually getting down.
TO Definite understanding concerning
our future relations With Cuba. The
president knows what he wants. Both
li- and the secretary OF war have a clear.
idea Of what they believe to be the duty
of this government, both for its own IN
terests and for the interests of the Cu-
bans, and there are two Ways of accom-
piishing it. If one does not work they
will try the other, and visitors 10 the
white house and the war department
these days are discussing the subject
with unusual gravity.
The president proposes to carry out
the pledge of congress to The Cubans in
good faith, and not only provide them a
stable government, which Is the Lam
snage OF the resolution. but assist them
to maintain it, altlo he may not inter-
pret that term as the radical revolutions
cry leaders in Cuba are likely to do.
The constitutional convention now sit
ting in Havana was called to provide a
fundamental law for the future republic
of Cuba and to define the relations
which shall hereafter exist between that
republic and the United States. The
members of the convention have entire
~ ignored the latter duty. and, SO far
as can be learned, they have no inten-
tion to recognize the United States in
ny way. 1T was supposed that at least
atwo-thirds Of the members of that body
could be depended upon to carry out the
wishes of the president, but they have.
been entirely under the control of the
radical leaders of the late revolution,
end have shown determination to be
entirely independent of this govern
lnent.
Until within the last few days no at
tempt has been made to interfere with
or influence the action of the conven-
tion. but this week Gen. Wood has been
privately and unotiicialy instructed to
advise the influential leaders that their
constitution will not be approved by
this government. and the United States
troops will not be withdrawn until they
recognize in their constitution the right
of the United States to intervene when
ever it is considered necessary:
1. To preserve the peace and main
tain a stable government.
2. To prevent foreign entanglements
and protect the foreign population
3. To protect the credit OF the island
and prevent unnecessary and unjust
debts.
4. To protect the commercial inter-
ests OF the United States against unrea-
sonable tariff duties and discrimina-
tions.
