Santiago de Cuba, Feb. l4.-Cuban
gratitude, American cordlality and OF
fetal dignity marked the celebration
of the unveilng this afternoon of the
monument at FL Caney in honor OF
the Americans who lost their lives
during the siege of Santiago. Many
thousands of people crowded the El
Caney road, but in spite of this there
was no serious blockade, the police
management being perfect and the
road equal to a city boulevard. AT
the battlefield the Fifth artillery and
the Cuban artillery bands alternated
in playing military and other airs.
Lieutenant General S. B. M. Young,
representing President Roosevelt
greeted the Cuban officials and peo-
pie. General Andrade, representing
President Palma, responded and elo-
quently expressed the national gratl-
tud to the United States and the desire
of Cuba to cooperate with the United
States in every respect. He said that
in an emergency America can depend
on Cuba as a military or a CONNER

committee on Interstate commerce.
the line between the faction which ad-
vocates the passage of the house rate
bill and the faction contcnding for
the court review feature has been
drawn so taut that all thought of
compromise has been abandoned. All
conferences today were between SEN
ators thoroughly harmonized for one
position or the other and have been
for the purpose of lining up for pas
sage at arms Nearly hundred
amendments to the house bill are
pending before the committee and
nearly n score of these bear I'M the ju-
dicial review of orders made by the

many of these amendments are con-
| tended for with stubbornncss a vote
on the bill itself may be delayed for
/ several days, despite the agreement in
committee that a vote shall be taken
Friday. 1t is not improbable that
both factions may be willing to trans
fer the contest to the floor Of the SEN
ate and that no roll call will be had IN
the committee.
If outward appearance may be be-
lieved in the face of the manipua-
tions to corner votes the Hepburn bill
cannot be taken from the committed
by n majority vote.
Under the Hepburn bill IL Is provld'
ed that an order Of the committed

which shall take away the right o
