 Company to Go To Cuba.


 Company to Go To Cuba.
 Havana. March 2S.-Rumors which have been circulated in the United States state that the Northern Securities Com pany would attempt to domicile itself in Cuba came as a surprise to President Palma. The President informed the As sociated Press today that he had no knowledge. written, verbal or otherwisa. !. that such an effort would be made. As he Is acquainted with some of the per- sons prominently interested in the North ern Securities Company President Palma said he would certainly have beer in formed If thai organization contemplated a domicile in Cuba.
 It does not appear that there Is any body in Havana on such an errand, though according to the rumors which have reached here Levi P. Morton. D. A. Smith, Sir William Van Horne and attorneys representing J. J. Hnl and J. D. Rockefeller are in Havana pressing President Palma to permit the Northern Securities Company to domicile itself here. Messrs. Morton and Smith and T. F. Ryan came to Cuba with Sir William Van Horne and dined with the Preside Tt last week, after which they proceeded to Santiago de Cuba. The question of the domiciliation of the Securities Company was not mentioned at the dinner.

RACE QUESTION IS UP DISCUSSED IN HOUSE BY MIR.
 GILLETTE CMAsS.) <,
 He Is of the Opinion That a Man is
 Entitled to Chocke His Entitled to Choose His Friends White or

Washington, March 2s-The sundry civil bate took a wide range. Mir. Gillett of Massachusetts devoted considerable time in arguing some of the statements recently made on the floor by MT. Spight of Mississippi regarding the race question MT. Gillette declared he had supposed there were no social grades in the United States. but that every man had the right to choose his own friends and associates among those most in sympathy with him self. He defended the President for in- viting Booker Washington to dine with him
 MT. Clarke CMo,) made a speech on the tariff and declared unequivocally in favor of the tariff program of the Democratic party as outlined by MT. Williams, the floor leader of the minority.
 A strong plea for the tobacco growers was made by Mir. Trlmble (Ky.) who urged the removal of the tax of cents a pound on raw tobacco in order that the producer might sell direct to the con- sumer.
 People of the North recognize. Mir. Gil- lette said. that mob violence ought to be stopped. not because of sympathy for the criminals, but from the results that are expected to come from it. In many cases burnings are not too good for the criminal and no punishment Is too severe for him, but he said it Is much better that the criminal should escape punish ment than to have the law transgressed
 Answering a question by Mfr. Claude Kitchin (N. C.) Mir Gillette declared that he condemned lynchings on any terms
 Mir. Richardson (Ala.) interrupted to say that whenever the negroes cease committing the crime of rape the lynch ings and burnings will cease with it. Mir. AGillette declared that the feeling in the North toward the negro is stronger than 1t Is in the South. In the North

 New York. March 2s.-A special to The Eagle from Washington says:
 Senator Arthur Pue German of Mary land will not be a candidate for the Dem ocratic Presidential nomination." This statement was made tonight by prom inent railroad man. the head of one of the big transcontinental lines. He has long been friend and admirer of the Mary land Senator. He saw Senator German yesterday and had a long talk with him.
 He said: Senator German might as well be eliminated from the list of possl- b!lltles for the Democratic nomlnat tion this year. He informed me yesterday that he was not a candidate. and that he did not desire the nomination. When I ex- pressed some surprise al this 4ne said:
 No. this Is not a good year to n0mI- nate a Southerner or a man from bo = der State. The country is not yet ready to accept such a candidate. The feeling against the nomination of SOutherner Is not. of course. what it was a few years ago. but nevertheless, there is enough opposition to endanger the success of a ticket headed by a Southern man. l am satisfied to remain where I am, in the Senate. and work in the ranks for the success of the Democratic ticket"

Rarrnra A Bad Lot.

A flock of migratory birds known as Elepoicants descended upon the city Sat urday morning. Two of them are now jail birds and the others are on the wing.
 The beggars touched more pockets than hearts. They were both impudent and insolent and though they got money they failed to win sympathy. Ere they had been in town twenty-fomr hours one of them was in jaid. This was one-legged man. J. c. Burns as 10 name, who on Saturday night struck a negro, Charlie Smith. over the head with his crutch. Burns was caught across the river and his case was set for this morning, but Mayor Atkins postponed 1t.
