QUESTION OF vERACITY
Raised over the Alleged Confession
Of "A Life Saver About Rios signals.

SAN FRANCISCO. Feb. 2S-Captain
Hodgson OF the Fort Point life saving
station, notified Major Blakely, superin-
tendent of the life-saving service this
morning that Mark Ellingsen. the guards
man who was on duty In the lookout tower
was wrecked. had confessed TO him that
he had heard the Rios signals of distress
but paid no attention to them and neg
lected TO arouse the station.
Captain Hodgson Immediately suspended
Ellingsen This afternoon Ellingsen ap-
peared at the office of Major Blakely and
denied emphatically that he had made the
confession related by Captain Hodgson He
made his denial in the presence of Captain
Hodgson. who very positively reasserted
that Ellingsen this morning had made
clean breast OF negligence. Ellingsen main
tanned that he heard only two short sig
nails, possibly of ten seconds duration. and
that he had attached no Importance TO them
as they were not long blasts. The matter
will be investigated by the proper authori-
ties.
An official investigation of the wreck OF
the Rio de Janeiro was begun to-day by

COPY OF CUBAN DECLARATIONS
PRESENTED TO GEN. WOOD FOR
TRANSMISSION TO WASHINGTON.
Regarded at Havana as Liberal, Con-
sidering the Personnel of the
Constitutional Convention.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 2s.-The House
leaders determined early to-day to deal
promptly with the army appropriation bill
and its Cuban and Philippine amendments
by bringing In special rule which will per-
NIT the measure TO go TO conference with
out delay. 1t was hoped TO begin the con-
ference without sending the bill to the
military committee. but this plan met with
objection on the Democratic side and the
bill was sent to the committee. Chairman
Hull thereupon prepared a report promptly
from the committee report recommending
nonconcurrence in all the Senate amend
ments and conference. special rule
from the committee on rules was prepared
to carry out this programme After
further consideration. however. the view
prevailed among House leaders that 1t
would be desirable 20 concur I'm the Cuba
Philippine and other amendments without
sending them TO conference. A special
rule for nonconcurrence had been drafted,
as stated, but later Chairman Hull decided
TO defer action until tomorrow, when
rule probably will be presented which will
allow him to move concurrence I'm these
amendments. This would pass the bill. Mr..
Richardson, the Democratic floor leader
says the minority will tight the Cuban
Philippine amendments at every point.

CUBAN DECLARATIONS.


HAVANA. Feb. 2S.-Senor Capote, presi-
dent of the Cuban constitutional conven-
tion at o'clock this afternoon handed 10
Governor General Wood the declarations
OF the convention on the proposed rela-
tions between Cuba and the United States
as adopted yesterday afternoon. The pre-
sentation was informal and no remarks
were made. General Wood has notified the
authorities at Washington that the declara-
tions will be translated into the English
language and mailed TO Washington
The papers in explaining the action of
the convention in adopting the scheme OF
relations consider th,t the delegates have
acted consistently, for. with the exception
of possibly two. they were elected by the
element representing absolute independence,
and II was natural 10 expect a scheme of
relations that would preserve independence.
AS one paper points out. fear OF offending
their constituents would not allow them to
do otherwise. There is nothing revolution
airy in the tone of the papers to-day. In
deed, Senor Juan Gualberto Gomez I'm an
editorial in La Discussion brands as traitors
the conservative element, whom he accuses
OF endeavoring TO have their own members
appointed civil governors OF the six
provinces in order 10 bring about an an
nexation movement. At the clubs last
evening sentiment was decidedly in favor of
the United States insisting upon the recon-
mendations of the Senate.
In reference made in these dispatches yes
terday TO the treaty of Paris in Article
of the five articles of the declarations the
articles of the treaty mentioned should be
Articles l and ls and not Articles u and 16.

STATE PRISON BURNING
NEBRASKA PENITENTIARY PROB
ABLY WILL BE DESTROYED.
Convicts Marched from Their Cells to
the Yard without Disorder
and Kept Under Guard.

LINCOLN, Neb., March 1.-Fire which
started in the living rooms of the warden
in the main building of the state peniten-
tiary at midnight last night seems cer-
tain to destroy the entire main building,
together with the cellhouse and other
structures. Just after o'clock this morn
ing telephone message came saying the
room in which the telephone instrument
was located was i'm flames and must be
vacated. This cuts off the only means OF
immediate communication with the prison,
which is nearly four miles from the busi-
ness district of the city.
Between l and o'clock however, a mes
sage from a member of the Lincoln fire
department said that the penltentiary
proper was doomed, and that the fire was
spreading. Before the fam } had gained
great headway Warden Davis gave orders
to release the convicts from the cells and
march them under double guard to the
prison yard. The removal was accomplished
safely and without disorder.
Extra guards were posted on the stock
ade walls. armed with shotguns. with or
ders to permit no escapes. The origin Of
the fire is unknown.

WASHINGTON. Feb 2s.-The House
cleared the decks to-day of a number of i'm
portant conference reports without much
difficulty. The conference report on the
war revenue reduction bill proved gen

best that could be done. although he stated
the minority still believed the war taxes
should be reduced to $70,0O0,OO0. Final re-
ports the diplomatic and consular and

adopted. The major part OF the day was
devoted to the bill TO promote the efficiency
