BRITAIN WILL NOT AGREE.
British Cabinet Discussed Canal, But
Result Not Likely TO he Com
elusive.

London, Feb 22.-The cabinet, at to-
days meeting d scussed a dispatch from
Lord Pauncefote which, it is understood,
dealt with the probable attitude of the
United States towards Great Britain $
counter proposals in the Nicaragua canal
matter.
AS the official action resulting from to-
days meeting has not yet had time TO
take definite shape it is impogsib o say
what conclusions were reached. Uni ed
States Ambassador Chcate VIII p o. alb y
be summoned to the foreign office next
Monday, when Lord Lansdowne is like
ly to communicate to him the British
views re- aIdii & the Nicaragua ard Cos a
Rican controversies. No expectation
need be ertained that this interv ew
will settle one way or the other the
Nicaragua caral difficulty
Cheat Britain has no intention of rati-
flying the Hay-Paunce t.eaty In he
form desired by the Senate unless her
counter proposals are agreed to within
the short time which remains before thlt
treaty lapses; ana this Is recognized to
be almost impossible.

States Philippine Commission and num-
Der Of Filipino leaders.
President TerVera, who was one Of the

Mr.. MORGAN PERSISTENT.
Insists That United states should
Proceed with Canal Regardless
of CIaYton-BuINver Treaty.

Washington. Feb. Ex-senator Morgan
of the Committee on Foreign Relations,
has made minority report upon the reso-
luton declaring that the ratification OF
the Hay -Pauncefote treaty is not a con-
dition precedent to the construction of the
Ncaraguan canal, and that the United
States should proceed with that work re-
gard.ess of the existence OF the Clayton
Bulwer agreement. The committee made
an adverse repo. upon the reso .uion few
days ago, ard Senator Morgan controverts
the wisdom of that action. In his Views
Senator Morgan indicates that the ad-
verse report was made to conform to the
views OF the President
Mr.. Morgan argues that the President
has already outlined the position OF ms
United States toward the Clayton-Bul-
wer treaty by negotiating the protocols
with Costa Rica and Nicaragua.
1.-THE President in making these agree
ments in the name of the United States"
he says, "defiantly disregarded any claim
of right that Great Britain cou.d assert
that her consent was necessary to such
action on his part as President, ana the
right Of Congress to similarly disregard
such claims :"

CUBA AND The U. S.
CONVENTION VERY COY ON THIS
SUBJECT.
WANT FULL INDEPENDENCE.
THINK CONGRESS WOULD SUPPORT
THEM IN THIS.

4 Proposition to BE Drawn Up for
Consid eratiOn--Free Trade MS Near
as Possible, Wanted Between Cuba
and This COuntry-NavaI stations
May Not BE observation-disclosures
Council in IA state OF Chaos and
SEQ Business Propositions Await
ing Action-Not known when Nee
Iy's Trial VIII Begin.
Havana, Feb. 22.-Nothing definite has
been decided upon regarding the question
of future relations. Many of the dele
gates assembled in the convention hall
this afternoon to talk over the matter
Informally. Most of them seem to be inn
pressed with the conviction that If the
convention stood out vigorously for alb
solute independence, the United States
Congress would support them.
The special committee on relations has
instructed its secretary, Senor Juan Gual-
berto Gomez, to draw up proposition and
submit the same to the committee for
consideration. The proposition will, It is
said, deal with the issue in three leading
divisions:
First. That Cuba shall not be made the
base of war operations against the Uni
ted States.
Second That the commercial treaty
with the United States shall embody as
far as possible free trade between the two
countries. and:
Third That no foreign treaty shall be
made jeopardizing the independence of
Cuba.
The special committee considers that
the danger of Cuba contracting loans she
might be unable to pay has been guard
ed against in the constitut on.
Instructions on this poiot and the others
were given to Seror Gomez in the form
of notes and suggestions. 1t is UNDER
stood that the question of naval stations
was not mentioned.
The committee will report Monday at
an executive session of the convention.
At to-day's session of the Municipal
Council of the city of Havana resolu-
ton was adopted declaring that
state of chaos existed In
the council owing to the personal quarrels
between the mayor and the assistant
mayor. The resolution also pointed out
thet 800 business propositions were lying
undealt with upon the table; and 1t di-
reeted that the Mayor and members OF
the Council should hereafter attend the
sessions regularly and transact the af-
fairs OF the city in a businesslikc man
ner.
The fiscal is unwilling to say when he
expects the trial of c, f. w. Neely, the
alleged postoffice embezz.er. to begin.
Written iuterrogatories have been sent
out to witnesses in the United States and
the Philippines and they in turn have a
right to send interrogatories here. No
doubt considerable time will elapse before
all the testimony 90 be used upon the trial
is at hand.

johnny on Autumn.

Autumn is the season of the year
when the leaves surn brown and your
feet get cold riding in the open cars.
In the autumn we 90 out meath the
shady woods to commune with nature
and gather various kinds of nuts. 1t
is usually called fall except when one is
in company. Autumn is its Fourth
Reader name. In the autumn we ask
the janitor to give us some steam, but
he haughtily refuses. Hence we do not
get it, and we sometimes sit around
the cold radiator and think We should
not murmur at providence, for provi.
dence is not to blame. 1t is the jan.
tor. In the autumn we take our
books under our arms and trudge of
contentedly to school. Education is
an important thing. We should never
neglect to get an education. Let US
bear in mind, my friends, that without
an education we are apt to come short
in doing our duty. 1t is also improper
to wear straw hat in autumn.-John
