VVAsniNOTON, Keb. 27.—When the
sesakirt opened to-day the galleries
went well filled In anticipation of a re*
•**W*l of hostilities, but business soon
was directed into routine channels
with the understanding that the San*
Kj ffniny • resolution would come up aa
'*■ »ooa ag the business was finished. At
I o'clock the Ssnguilly resolution
came up again and the galleries were
packed. Mr. Pettigrew, attempted to*
.go *oii with the Indian bill and
•moved that this be done, but it was
held that the (Cuban resolution had the
right tff Way. In the confusion Mr.
I'Vye, who had stirred up the galleries
yesterday, stepped into the middle
nisle and said that lie hoped that the
Sanghilly fbsolutlon would be allowed
tdgo to the calendar without further
discussion.
Mr. Ijndge said the pardon of 8an
ffyilly did not end the matter. There
were many similar cases buried in the
oecrecy ft'..,-the State department.
Illploruncy had taken twenty-three
inontlis in. the Sangullly case, while
tho Senate in a single day had brought
a pardon. >
Mr. Callyspoke of the Ruiz cue and
presented absolution calling for in
formation oil it, but it went over on
objection from Mr. White.
,)Mr Hale tqrged the necessity of (fir
*''• ST all the, time possible to appropria
tion hills in order to get them through.
Sir Morgan replied that Mr. Hale
had threatened to filibuster on the
Sifnguilly resolution. Mr. Morgan
spoke at some length on the Cuban
question. ,. * ,
Mr. Morgan refused the yield to in
terruptions by Messrs, Hoar and Hale,
saying that Mr. Hoar could not inter
fere with him under the prestige of
hia fauio and position. He eulogized
Consul General Leo as a man of conr
age and honor.
Mr. Morgan said that the only in
formation jpf flanguilly'a pardon came ,
from the newspapers. Nothing was
received from the state department.
He did not wonder that tha President
desired to conceal his policy from the
American people.

Ms Sherman Expects Ratification la
tha Extra Session,
Washington, Feb. 27.—Recognizing
the futility of continuing the contest
for the general arbitration treaty
against a determined minority, which
is strengthened by the fact that very
few days remain of the jifo of the
Fifty-fourth Congress, Senator Sher
man and those who have sustained the
treaty have given up the contest for
this session, but will renew it daring
the extra session of the Senate, which
will be convened immediately upon
the dissolution of the present Congress
next Thursday.
Mr. Sherman, who, by reason of the
fact that he will be at the head of the
State department after March 4, speaks
with the authority ot the incoming ad
ministration, strongly intimates that
the new President will urge ratifica

AROUSED AMERICANS,
BELLIGERENT SPEECHES IN THE
UPPER HOUSE.
Mr. Allan. Mr. Daniel. Mr. Frye and Mr.
Teller Indulge In riry Talk Against
•pain—Tbe Use of Warships Urged—
Treatment of Americans In Cnba Vig
orously Denounced—Protection to Oar
Clttsens.
Senators Are Warlike.
Washington, Feb. "0.—The House
committee on foreign affairs to-day
framed a substitute for the various
resolutions of inquiry as to Americans
in Cuba before it and instructed Chair
man Hitt to urge prompt action on it
It is as follows:
“Resolved, by the House of Repre
sentatives, That the president be re
quested to transmit to the House of
Representatives, if not Incompatible
with the public interest, all corres
pondence on file in the state depart
ment not hitherto communicated to
Congress in regard to the imprison
ment of American citizens by Spanish
officials in the island of Cuba."
Chairman Hitt assurod the commit
tee that in case the Senate should pass
the Sanguilly resolution he would call
the committee together to consider it.
Yesterday afternoon the state de
partment requested that the Senate
committee on foreign relations should
not press its resolution demanding the
immediate release of General Julio
Sanguilly from a Spanish prison in
Cuba. This morning the committco
met again and gave the subject careful
attention, but declined to grant the
request .
It appeared from the statement of
the secretary of state that the Spanish
government's promise to release San*
guilty was coupled with the provision
that he should withdraw his appeal
from the second sentence of the Cuban
court, and it was stated that release
could bo secured at any time that this
condition should be complied with.
The committee's discussion was on this
point, and the opinion was generally
expressed that for Sanguilly to pursue
this course would be inadvisable for
the reason that it would amount to an
acknowledgment of guilt and would be
equivalent to tho abandonment of any
claims that he might have against the
Spanish government for damages. The
committee,' therefore, decided to press
the consideration of the resolution.
sanguilly's appeal withdrawn. .
About noon a dispatch came from
Havana saying that Senor Mesa Dom
inguez, counsel for Julio Sanguilly,
had filed in the Havana court papers
retiring (withdrawing) the appeal to
the supreme court of justice of Madrid
made against the sentence of the Ha
vana criminal court condemning San
guilly to imprisonment for life.
It is believed at the state depart
ment that the withdrawal of the ap
peal will ba followed promptly by the
pardon of Sanguilly.
ALLEN DENOUNCES SPANIARDS.
The Cuban resolutions were taken
up promptly by the Senate to-day.
The first was that of Mr. Allen, asking
the President to use effective measures
to protect American citizens in Cuba,
and to that end to send United States
warships to Cuban ports. He said
that American citizens wore daily be
ing arrested in Cuba and thrown into
prison without any trial. It seemed
to be the disposition of Spain to pun
ish every American eitizen in Cuba.
It was a story of barbarity and atro
city. Recently a lady had been ar
rested by Spanish officials and roughly
searched. Little girls had been gath
ered nn in Cuba and sold into the
worst conceivable slavery. Spanish
soldiers had taken infants by the
heels, hacked them to piece's and
killed the parents. Such action was
n blot on the civilization of the age.
Why should Congress remain supine?
The time would come when this inac
tion would make Americans hang
their heads.
Mr. Morgan said the committee on
foreign relations had pressed forward
this protection to American citiaens as
fast as the well authenticated facts
would permit. The reports of atroci
ties against women and little girls
were vague and did not have that
verification warranting action by the
committee. It had. however, brought
forward the resolution for the immedi
ate release of Sanguilly, as the facts
in the case were well established be
yond question.
Mr. Morgan felt that speedy action
was essential. He reviewed the cir
cumstances of Sangullly’s arrest and
long confinement, the proof of his
American citlsenship, his freedom
from complicity in the revolution, his
severe trials and other well kliown
circumstances in the case. The reso
lution detnatoding immediate release
was justified on the sole ground of ir
regularity in trial, for never in the
history of jurisprudence was there a
case where there was less show of rea
son or occasion for a conviction. Mr.
Daniel followed.
At the request of Mr. Morgan, the
Allen resolution was referred to the
committee on foreign relations, the
assurance being given that it would
receive particular attention and the
Sanguilly resolution was brought up
directly and Mr. Daniel of Virginia, a
member of the committee of foreign
relations, spoke in support of it.
Dr. Daniel said that the state depart
ment had dealt with this case for two
years and that was enough to get an
American citizen out of prison.
Here Mr. dray arose and said: “I
have just seen a dispatch from Havana
stating that the counsel for Sanguilly
has withdrawn the appeal iu order to
facilitate his release.’'
Mr. Frye stepped into the middle
aisle and said: “If the counsel for
Sanguilly has done that he has done
an inexcusably unjust act.-’
Mr. Hale Bought to interpose. “How
can the senator say that?" ’
MR. FRYE TALKS VERY BOLDLY.
“Because,” answered Mr. Frye, “if
his counsel has withdrawn that ap
peal then that man is a convicted crim
inal, liable to punishment, to impris
onment for life, and can only escape
by pardon, and if he escapes by par
don,then he loses for hiouelf and
larjny an claims tor damage*. •ro w
i* tvhat Spain has been contending for
all the time. Now we contend, on the
other hand, that the man has been un
justly convicted, and that Spain must
deliver him up to us, and if I had my
way a ship of war would start forth
with to Havana to deliver him.”
In the crowded galleries there was a
tumultuous and long continued dem
onstration such as neither branch of
Congress has heard in recent years.
The Vico President strove vainly to
check it- He rose to his feet, pounded
the gavil and amid tho din gave a
me“vla,g warning to the galleries
thpt tney would be cleared if the dem
onstration was continued. “This is
the 8enate of the United States,” said
he sternly.
Mr. Miils of Texas was quickly on
his feet. ‘’The galleries ore filled
with American citizens,” he exclaimed,
“and they have a right to express their
feelings on this question.”
Mr. Hale had again risen and, with
a tinge of bitterness', said of the state
ment which has aroused such an out
break: “Tiie Senator has told tho
whole story. It is not the release of
Sanguilly that is wanted. War is
what is wanted. And I say that this
country will not be driven to war in
the next eight days.” *
The storm subsided somewlint as
Mr. Hoar, turning to the report on the
Sanguilly case, pointed out some in
definite features to it.
ClUA BEFORE EVERYTHING.
To test the sentiment of the Senate
on tho Sanguilly Cuban resolution Mr.
Allen moved to displace the Indian bill
and proceed with tho Cuban resolution.
Mr, Hill demanded tho yeas and nays,
saying he desired a test* The roll call
was followed with intense interest.
The motion prevailed, yeas 40, nays i!7.
Sir. Teller said he won Id send every
ship the country had to protect Ameri
can citizens. He would make every
power on earth respect American citi
zenship if it took all the guns and men
and money in the country.
Mr. Hale appealed to the Senate not
to confiscate every hour of the session
and defeat all appropriation bills. He
intimated also that if the Cuban reso
lutions were pushed there would be
“full debate” in opposition.

deserted their sects and hurried to
greet him. After a few minutes he
emerged and walked calmly down the
aisle to his old scat near the center
aisle. The Democrats gave liim a
round of hearty applause, the people
in the galleries craned their necks and
took up the demonstration. There
were several wild shouts. Many of the
Republicans joined in the weleomo to
their old colleague. The first was
Judge Strocfie of Nebraska, his suc
cessor in congress. Among the others
were Hitt of Illinois. W. A. Stone of
Pennsylvania. Dalzeil of Pennsylvania
and Dolliver of Iowa. The confusion
became so great that Speaker
Reed was forced to call
the house to- order. After a
few minutes. Mr. Bryan made his
way back of the-rail which divides the
seats from the lobby, around to> the
Speaker's rostrum, where ■■ lie shook
hands with the Speaker. The galler

| BACILLI IN BUTTER.
Hot the Bed Kind, bat Pat Them to
Make the Flavor Better,
One of the most startling discoveries
of this end of the century is that mi
crobes are required to make first-class
butter. “Bacillus No. 41” is the sclea
! tiflc term, or “artificial culture.” This
startling microbe theory was first ad
vanced by a person who came from
Denmark to lecture on the art of but
ter-making. The theory, which was
received with scorn. Is now advocated
by many scientists, and many creamer
ies now invest In the “culture.” In
one state alone, Iowa, twenty-eight
: creameries are using the culture. One
of Its most satisfactory experiments
was made recently in a Connecticut
creamery. June butter, as Is well
known, Is in flavor about the best pro
duced during the year, and the effect
of bacillus No. 41 upon June butter
was therefore especially interesting.
Early In June, when the amount of
cream collected by the creamery was
very large, two large vats full of cream
were collected. One of these was in
oculated with No. 41 and the other I
was uninoculated. They were then
both allowed to stand in the same
room, at the same temperature, for the
; same length of time, to ripen, and were
subsequently churned. The effect of
No. 41 even here was striking. Both
lots of cream produced, as was to be
expected, an excellent quality of but
ter, but No. 41 had an aroma more pro
nounced and more agreeable than that
of the butter made without the inocula
tion. In both taste and color, the but
ter made by inoculation was decidedly
superior to that made without it. This
butter was submitted for testing to a
large number of persons, and no one
had the slightest hesitancy in deciding
that No. 41 made the superior quality
of butter. Experiments in improving
the quality and flavor of butter have
been made with over 100 different
species of germs, but it wa3 not until
the experimenter hit upon No. 41 that
he found a bacteria fit to put into his
mouth.
THEY LIVE CO-OPERATIVELY
Co-operative schemes of living have
many times been tried, but they have
invariably failed. There is a com
munity a half-mile from Boston, called
Brookline, where the co-operative
scheme has been brought to perfection,
all because the manager, as he says,
‘knew when to stop.”
‘‘The minute you encroach on the
personal liberty of people,” said Mr.
Knapp, the manager, “then your
scheme is ruined.” The interesting
part of this enterprise is that it was
started a few years ago by Mr. Knapp,
who counted his money by millions,
solely as a fad. He bought a large
tract of land, divided it into terraces
npd on them built groups of bouses,
which were costly affairs, forty-eight
in number, dreams of architectural
beauty, clustered around a central club
house. Since then he has lost his for
tune and makes his living managing
Beaconsfield terrace, as the place is
Living is expensive there. There ha*
been no attempt at co-operative cook
ing and each residence has its own
cooks and maids, but if a valet or maid
is wanting one can be hired to come
once a week anti oversee the wardrobe.
Each house is furnished with steam
heat from a little building at the end
of the village, afl the rate of from JIT
to $35 a month.. There is never any
fuss over furnace fires and coal for the
residences of thtr terrace. A man ft*
engaged at $2 w week per house to
clean sidewalks, shovel srtow, polish
outside brasses, etc. A little wagon
delivers dally packages from Boston
and' takes bundles from the terrace to
other points. A big stable supplies alt
kinds of carriages cheaper than livery
stable1 rates and! accommodates th»
private1 vehicles of wealthy residents.
A florist shop supplies fresh flowers
and1 aBI these supply stations are eon
■•ncted* with each lhauae by calt-bells.
A telegraph office' is i* the manager’s
room.. A handsome-terrace drag takes
parties into town: instead of a rattling
trolley car.
When a woman- fortunate enough to
live in the terrace wants to give a
tea air party Bhe- does sot tear op her
own. home, hut rents the handsome
Chsibo for $10- and its very pretty
rooms serve the- purpose immensely
welll. A kindergarten for the children
is held in the- Casino mornings, hot
the- rest of the day. when it is not pri
vately rented, it is a free clubhouse to
the village. There is a large play
ground for the: children and a big ten
nis court.
As a co-operative scheme for the
wealthy residents of Beaconsffield ter
race the scheme is a great success, but
brought down to a more economical
basis men of affairs are doubtful as to
its efficiency.

Glass-making is said to have a his
tory at onec very long and very short;
long, because it reaches back to
the most ancient civilisation; short,
because though known for forty cen
turies, glass has been utilized only far
about a century and a half, and also
because the art of glass-making has
remained almost stationary, depending
chiefly as it does upon secretly trans
mitted recipes. A French writer states
that the struggle between capital and
labor, so fierce in the depths of coal
mines, is more bitter still in the fur

more important place in the industrial

of putting in enough letters. ” Act
ing on this principle he spelled girl
gearle, do doe. and get getto. This
trait would seem to indicate a liberal
disposition, and this gentleman wa9
certainly a very liberal minded man.
His “strong spelling” aid not prevent
him from serving the public accepta
bly in several capacities.
Another strong speller always in
sisted upon writing the word
“poraps” thus: perhapsc. Though
ho was frequently remonstrated with
and repeatedly told that there was
no final o on the word he continued
to spell it that way. A thoroughly
“strong speller” always seems to bo
accorded a certain sympathy and
even admiration by those who ordi
narily spell correctly, while a “weak
speller” is always laughed at.
What “weak spoiling” means may
be illustrated by the case of a gentle
man who recently wrote ‘ enthusi
asm” thus: entheusam, and who gen
erally spelled “suggest” sojost. The
same gentleman is known to have
spelled penalty pelcnty, but a pe
culiarity of his case is that he never
mispronounces a word, and always
appears ia conversation what he is,
a cultivated gentleman.

Dr. Flamsteed, who was astronomer
royal in Newton's time, was rather
tickled by the belief of his neighbors
in his powers of consulting the stars
about terrestrial affairs. An old
washerwoman at Greenwich, who had
been robbo-.l of her linen, came to con
sult him about its recovery, so he set
about drawing squares and circles,
and suggested that if she went into a'
certain lieid he would not bo surprised
if she found her lost linen in a ditch;
but when she came back “with haste
and joy” and a half crown in her hand
for his fee, he was not only very much
surprised, but alarmed. “Good
woman,” ho said, “I am heartily glad
you havo found your linen, but I as
sure you I knew nothing of it, and in
tended to road you a lecturo on the
folly of applying to any person to
know events not in human power to
tell; but I s?e Satan has a mind I
should deal with him, and never will
I attempt such an affair again so long
as I live.”—Argonaut.
