CUMM|NS SUBSTITUTE FAILS
DEMOCRATIC STEEL BILL Likely
TO PASS.
House Passes Naval Appropriations,
Omitting BattIeshIp
Provision.

Washington, May 20. - The senate
entered upon the last stage of the
consideration of the house bill reduc.
ing the duties on iron and steel, re-
jecting by IL to 60 the measure pre-.
scented by Senator Cummins of Iowa,
as substitute for the house Demo.
cratic bill.
Democrats and regular Republicans
Joined in opposition to the measure
and all the affirmative votes except
those of Senator Jones, Nelson, Page
and Townsend, regular Republicans
were cast by Progressises as follows:
Borah, Bourne, Bristow, Clapp, Cum
Minis, Gronna, Poindexter and Works.
After the vote was taken Senator
Hepburn, of Idaho, took the floor in
opposition to the Democratic bill but
the senate soon adjourned, postponing
final action for at least another "a
hours.
A number Of amendments were Of
fered during the day. One of these.
by Senator Smith, Of Georgia, places
farm machinery on thetfree list.
Before the vote, regular Republicans
had practically confessed their inten.
| ton of defeating the Cummins amend
ment and then permitting the Demo.
Gratis to pass their bill.
Concluding the last section of his
speech, Mr.. Cummns appealed to
Democratic senators to vote for his
substitute on the ground that it was
more likely than their bill to receive
the presidents signature, while he
made the same appeal to the regular
Republicans, because. he said his meas.
IRE was protective in character, while
the house bill was not.
BattIeship Proposals Fail.

priation bill without providing for any

amendment was added, by which gov.

tenor one Of the leaders OF the rebels
In the province Of Oriente, in the
course of an interview with a special
correspondent of FL Dia on the subject
Of the causes and progress of the ne.
gro rebellion in Cuba. says:
THE primary cause of the uprising
10 the failure of the government to
repeal the law. which provides that
there shall be no recognition Of
political parties on racial lines. An.
other cause is the action of the gov
eminent and the law courts in deny
Ing negroes their civil and political
rights.
'"The movement is not racial one,
ban citizens to assert their rights at
all hazards. We have no hostility to
the white people and ! have given
strict orders that no violence shall be
committed on the persons Of whites
under pain of death. One of our sol.
diers has been hanged for violating
( this order.

tinue fighting whatever happens.
"Al the responsibilities for inter

Revolt Becoming Worse.
: Washington. - Doubt is expressed
! here that the Cuban government will
have 5000 troops and volunteers In
Oriente province within the next few
days. The report that the govern
ment would muster that number is
believed to have been confused with
the fact that President Gomez has is-
sued large number of rifles to law
abiding citizens to protect their prop
erty against attack from rebel bands.
It is admitted here the movement is
becoming worse in Orente, with the
probability that the flames Of insur-

Newark, May 29.-One of the most
weeping victories Theodore Roose-
velt has won in the primaries since he
began his campaign for the Republi.
:an presidential nomination was re.
corded by the Republican voters of

ais political enemies within the state
gates including the delegates at large.
Col. Roosevelt's indicated plurality

EARLY Returns.
The official count in the 1,799 cleo
ton districts of the state accumulated
slowly. The 315 districts that report,
ed first on the votes for delegates al
large gave no indication of the actual
results of the primaries. The figures
on these districts, little more than q
sixth of the total vote were:
Taft. 1920; Roosevelt, 1880; La
Toilette, 315.
Figures on the presidential prefer
entail vote at that time were practt
cally the same.
Col. Roosevelt's lead was apparen

hours after the polls closed, before

Of the American government was mere
ly measure of precaution, and entire
ly associated from any question of in
tervention. To this President Come,
replied as follows:
81 am exceedingly grateful for your
cablegram, which is appeasing to Gu
ban patriotism, because of the assur
nnce that the action of the government
under your worthy presidency is linn
tied to the observation Of events In or
der to be ready should 1t be necessary
to protect the lives and property OF
American citizens and morally to sup.
port the Cuban government without
having to land American forces on oul
territory. unless both governments
agree upon such an extreme neces
sity."
The receipt of President Taft'a
message declaring that the naval con.
centration at Key West and the dis,
patch of gunboats to Cuban watere
we're merely precautionary was
source of much qualification to the Gu
ban government. The newspapers
express extreme qualification at the
attitude of Washington.
The Cuban government continued
unsparingly in it's efforts to rush re
Inducements to Oriente province.
The settlement of the iongshorl
mems strike has had the excellent eff.
feet of removing the danger of posi-
BILE disorders in the city and assuring
the government constant flow of re
sources from customs receipts.

Wilson Has 1852 Instructed DELEGATES
To Champ Ciark's
11A

st. Paul, May 8o.-According to the
Democratic county conventions held
throughout the state Of Minnesota, fol-
lowers of Jeffersonian principles in
this state have declared themselves
Mnequivocally for William Jennings
Bryan as their choice for presidential
candidate, SO the Bryan mer say, and
they bare their assertion by pointing
to the tabulated results of these con-
ventions, which show that although
Woodrow Wilson adherents were in a
position to swing almost every conven-
ton In the state they refused to in.
struct their delegates for Wilson, but
instead sent them to the state conven-
ton unfettered. This action, Bryan
men point out, leaves the Wilson men
free to bolt to the Bryan standard,
should it be raised at the Duluth con,
vention.
There seems to be foundation for
the report that the Wilson men really
are anxious to support the Commoner,
If the reports from the several dis
tricts are criterion. Throughout the
state as in Minneapolis, the Wilson
adherents were careful to name Bryan
men as their delegates to Duluth, and
even the Clark men made no protest,
so long as these men were known to
be favorable to the candidacy of the
Nebraskan If he can again be induced
to run.
Some Of the counties too an open
stand for Bryan and giving the Ne
braskan the uninstructed contingent
which is made up mostly of Wilson
men, the Peerless leader can easily
stampede the Duluth convention.
Throughout the state there was a NO
ticeable effort to influence the Demo
cratic state platform by injecting
planks into the resolutions. Many
counties expressed themselves in favo,
of preferential primary law, cor
rupt practices act, direct election oil

one county the convention placed it
