That a condition of public war exist* between the govern ment of Spain and the government proclaimed and for some time mairi ta.ned by force of arms by the people ■ if Cuba, and that the United Stub'* of America ahull maintain a strict neu trality between the contending par ties. according to each all the rights of belligerents in the ports and territory of the United States." The vote on the final passage of the resolution was as follows: Yeas— Itaeon. Haber, Hate, Iterry, Htiller. Carter, ('hundler. Chilton.i lav, Clark. • ockrell. Uullom, Davis. Dehoe.

Likins of West Virginia White of < alifornia, Lair hank* of Indiana, Hale of Maine. Summer of Wisconsin and Dorman of Maryland. Mr. Thurston, who pre sided over the Republican convention at St. Louis, recalled the stirring scene when tin- convention enthusias tically inserted a Cuban plank in the platform and declared that this reso lution was a partial fulfillment of that pledge. Messrs. Likins and White urged a conservative course and an inquiry by a committee. Then came the tirs*. vote--that on the Hale motion to refer. It was a test of strength arid the defeat of the motion assured the passage of the resolution. Mr. L'air banks tried to stem the tide by offer ing a compromise proposition, some what on the lines of the Cuban plank adopted at St. Louis, but it met the : uuie fate us the Hale motion. Mr Hale, in his protest, spoke with intense earnestness aud feeling, and with a trace of bitterness in his words. He dee-lured that the elements op posed to the administration -Demo crats and Populists had furnished the liuik of the vote In favor of the resolu tion. and that the foreign policy of tin- administration was thus to be dic tated by its opponents. lie expressed the fear that the resolution would lead to war with Spain. Mr. Npoofteradded his protest against tying the hands of the administration. Mr. Doriuau closed the debate, resenting the suggestion that party lines were drawn on the resolution aud ussertiug that the ad ministration should have disputehi-il u War vessel to Cuba to protect our nffi eials on the island.

May 22. “Spain can not drive tiiis country into war," said Senator* Teller to-day in discussing the action of the Senate in pass ing the Morgan resolution direct ing the President to declare that a state of war exists in tuba. "This administration is too cowardly to do anything. It is afraid of offending Spain. The passage of that resolu tion does not mean anything at all except that the President cannot con trol the Senate as lie does the House. It will l>e defeated in the House as sure as it gets there. Reed will say it shall not pass the President will say it shall not pass. Hanna will say it shall not pass, and the truckling Republicans in the House will yield. It does riot matter at all w hat the private opinions of the mem ber* may he. It is evident that the administration is entering on a for eign policy as contemptible and pusil lanimous as that of ( levelaud was. It is a shame hut there is no help for it.
