Creighton hall was very fairly filled last night with a composite audience , called to gether to listen to an exposition of the cause of the Insurrectionists of Cuba. It had baen expected that the Cuban patriot , Gonzalo do Querada , whose mission It is to arouse sym pathy for the Cubans throughout the United States , would be present , but ho found It impossible to come to this city. The meeting vay consequently transformed into a nuss meeting , which turned out to be unanimously nnd enthusiastically In favor of recognizing .me struggling Cubans as belligerents , ami iccognl/lng the- Cuban republic as soon as possible. The meeting was called to order by D. Clem Dcavcr. Ho briefly announced that the expected speaker could not ba present on uccount of press of business. Ho gave the gist of a letter which had been received from him , In which he told of the manner In which the Cubin cairio was being made known In the principal cities of the coun try. At a mass meeting an executive com- iiiUtfo of fifteen or twenty persons Is ap pointed , who apppolnt an advisory board of EOIIIO 100 men , who represent the entire state In which the city is situated. The members of this board keep the Cuban question before the public In dclgtted districts. Mr. D.-aver Introduced Mayor Bemls n the chairman of the meeting. The mayor spent but a few moments In explaining the object of tlie meeting to the audience , and then Intiodum ! lion , John L. Webster as the principal speaker. Air. vvensiPT said tnat on September D tlie formation of the Republic ut Cuba was offi cially announced , a president and a constitu tional assembly , on a basis similar to the French atiembly , having ben elected. U Is that republic ugulnst which Spain Is now waging war. The Cubans can no longer bo icgardi'd as n band of Insurgents or rebels , hut us u band of patriots , fighting for their count ) y. The struggle Is not a clvlll/ed warfare , but Is a revival of the cruelties of SiunlHh war fire , which have disgraced the history of Spain. Therefore , the little repub lic In the vve.-tcrn hemisphere Is appealing to America for Its national sympathy. The tragic struggle of the Cubans to es tablish a republic In 1869 wa related. The speaker held that In view ot this past his tory the renewed struggle of the Cubans for liberty had moreof merit than that of the Aimetilana , 'Iho latter had not an Inde pendent government , while the- Cubans have. Despite this fuel , however , they have been ruled with a rod of Iron and their revolt Is nothing more than a revolt against oppres sion , Their appeal Is an appeal for lyinpathy which cornea with us stirring a ring us that \\hlch went out to Franco during our own struggle- for liberty , As to Cuba's capacity for Independent gov- friimont , Mr. Webster said that , she had all the elements necessary. Her geographical sltuat'on was excellent , her haibora were kpaclous un'l her seacoast largj , her acreug was ilchl ) productive , she had tlmb'r , ma hogany , rare woods , coffee , tobacco and sugar , r v\hlch llml their way Into every country. As u people , the Cubans were distinctively a nationality. Even under excessive taxation they have been prosperous. At' an argument tl'nt congress shcuM take torn3 tteps to recog. iilze the little republic , Mr , Webytcr spoke of the slmllir precedents in American his tory. The recognition of the French repub lic In 1S4S was especially Instanced , The ac tion of the government during the revolution In Hungary , when an agent was u > nt to this country lu offer congratulations and the later tl'inand for the surrender of the patriot Ko . tilth , was also mentioned , Throughout all His history of tbe country the speaker held that the renate hud been ready to recognize a fctrugglo for liberty. The Monroe doctrine whn rightly understood , he said , embodied nothing more- than that , for It warned the holy alliance to kej > Its hands off all repub lie * established not only on the western con tinent , but on the wen tern hemisphere , Mr. Webster said that th cause of Cub was th cause of America , btcausc It was to perpetu ate and extend the liberty enthroned In till country. At the conclusion of Mr. Webster's sppjch Mr , Deaver Introduced the following rcso lutlon , 'uylng that before It was put to vet Hon. W , J , Ilryan would speak to It : Whereas , The pcop'e of the United State ! ) enjoying republican government thcmselve rtrc Interested In the < - < ! tnl > ll < hment of n Elm liar form of government throughout th world , and Wherca" , The citizens of Cubi arc no\ endeavoring to secure for thcmoelves th blcsslnps of solf-govcrnment ; therefore , ncfOlvnl , Tlmt we , the citizens of Omnhn rop-artllp i of party , do hereby cxpre s on dcev iinil cainost sympathy with the peopl of Cuba In their heroic stiiiKg'e , and Iteeolved , That we favor their rccognltlo by the United States as belligerents at th earlleit po slblc moment consistent with ou treaty obligations , Mr. Ilryan said ! "The only question I whether the Cubans can be tree. Theie arne no people fit to bo free- unless they will flpli for freedom. Therefore It Is necessary tlm Cuba should achieve Its own Independence Some people say that It Is not sympathy tha Is wanted , but that It is aid. If this Is so then America must not only liberate Cuba but must stand by her when llbcarted. Till feeling should be siippiessed , because it in volves an unsettled question , luther shouli wo only extend our sympathy nnd urge othe natlonH to do likewise , "Tills resolution Is conservative , but carrle great weight. It shows the members of congress gross that the American people will stan back of them If they recognize the Cubans a belligerents when the time arrives. It wl do the Cubans good , for It will Inspire then with the courage to continue the struggle , t will do more. It will show that the state which nro the greatest representatives o liberty are not only satisfied with it , but wan every other nation to have the home form o government. " At the conclusion of Mr. Dryan's remark the resolution was put to a vote and It wa passed unanimously and with gieat cnthusl asm. asm.Judge C. R. Scott and Thomas J. Major also made speeches. They spuKe In a con slderably more radical manner than clthe-r o the others. CJOMIGIVKS ; OIT AX AOIJUHSS IiiHitrRftMit I.i'nili-r IM.SIICH an Appeal to tlio I'lMipIc of Culm. Nn\V YORK , Dec. 9. The World today sayo : General Gomez has Issued the fol lowing explanation of his order to burn plantations : Jo the honored men , victims of the torch The painful measure made necessary by the revolution for the redemption of this lam drenched In Innocent blood ( from Hatuacy to our own times ) by cruel and merciless Spall will bring misery upon you. As general-ln chief of the army of the liberation it Is my duty to lead It to victory without permit ting m > ! elf to be held back or terrified b > any means necessary to place Cuba In th shortest time in possession of her ileires Ideal. I therefore- place the responsibility for so grc.it ruin on those who look' ' on 1m passively and force us to these extreme measures , which later , fools and dolts tha th.ey are , condemn. After so ninny years of prayer , humtlla tlon and death , when this people of Its own will lias arisen In anus , there remains no other aim but to triumph. It matters no what means aie employed to accomplish It Tilts people cannot hesitate between the wealth of Spain and the liberty of Cuba Its greatest crime would be to stain the land with blood without effecting Its purpose because of puerile scruples and fears vvhlcl do not accord with the character of mei whom we meet In the field. The war dli uot begin on February 24 ; It Is about to bt'gln now. The revolutionary spirit , always magnified at the beginning by wild enthuil aim. had to be organized , calmed and let Into the proper channels. Tim struggle ought to begin In obedience to a plan more or lees methodically studied out , but whlcl may be accommodated to the peculiarities of this war. This has now been done. Let Spain ut once semi her soldiers to rivet the chains of her slaves , now that the chlldrct of the land are In the Held armed with the arms of llbcity. The struggle will ba ter rible , but the end will crown the resolutioi and coinage of the oppressed. MAXIMO GOMEZ. SAID IMSHA I.13AVUS HIS AbYMJU Siillnii Can Xnn AililrvNN Him nt HIM On n Home.

DEMAND TO BE INVESTIGATED Senate Passes a Resolution Concerning the Bering Sea Award , MORGAN'S ' COMPLIMENTS TO SIR JULIAN Alabama Senator . . . , , . . . . , , , . .v..r. , . . . HeiiiiirliN About tlie I'.iiKlUti Am- biiNNitilor anil HlN I'mimi * In 1'uti- llnliliiu ; Ibe Corre | ioiiileiieo > WASHINGTON , Dec. > . The feature ot the senate todav was a speech by Senator Margin of Alabama , chairman of the committee mitteeon foreign relations and a meinbcr of the Paris Ilcrlng sea tribunal , upon n resolu tion offered by him last week Instructing the foreign rehtlons committee to Investigate the question of the liability of the United States for the seizure of lirltlsli ships In Horlni ; ECU In lt.90. . Mr. Morgan took the position In the last , congress that the settle ment for the sum ot $426,000 , ns recom mended by the president , was neither wlso nor proper. Ills remarks on that occasion were the subject ot some wrcastlo comment from the llrltlsh ambassador here In the hit ter's oillclal correspondence with Lord Kim- berly. That correspondence was printed from the llrltlsh blue book recently , and most ot Mr. Morgan's speech todny was devoted to paying his re-spects to Sir Julian Paunccfote. His resolution , which was as follows , was unanimously adopted at the conclusion of his speech : Resolved. Tlmt the mcs nge of the pre- tdunt received lij the senate on rcbiuuiy I , lb ! > 3. mid his mi'bMiKO ictelvud In the BCII- ate today ( meaning Deccmbei 3) ) , relating to the payment by the I'nlted States of the claims of Great lirltiiln iirlMng from the Derlnif sea controveiry , bo leftried to the committee on foreign relations , with In- stiuetlons that cald committee cMimlno Into the question of said liability to Great Uritnln and the amount thereof. If any , and of any liability on the part of Great Hrltlan arising out of said controversy , and that sold committee shall have authority to re port by bill or otherwise. Mr. Morgan addressed the senate on his rcrolutlon concerning the claims for dam ages preferred by England on account of "olzures In llerlng sea. LIABILITY NOT DETERMINED. He said he felt It Incumbent upon himself to reply to certain published comments made upon his course In the senate by the Britten premier nnd the Urlllsh ambassador. Ho dc- claicd that the Paris tribunal did not at tempt to determine the question of the lia bility of the United States for seizures or the amount of such liability. rifnn t nplinln Sr\Mtf > * n1ir1 tirm / \ ( If * tftflt t\t\ liability was decided as a necessary Inference , and President Cleveland , pioceedlng on that assumption , had , through the State depart ment , agreed to pay $423,000 in discharge of this alleged liability of the United States. But that agreement could not be carried out without the ratification of congress. The findings of the tilbunal rested en tirely upon the treaty-making power of the two governments , and the- United States and Great Britain were bound to carrj out the i regulations decided on for the protection of the seals as much as if those rogulutlona had b3en Incorporated In a treaty. But neither government was bound further. At most , Iho award of the arbitrators would only furnish a remote argument for the claim of Great Britain to damages for seizures. He would be loyal to the findings of the tribunal , ho said , but Great Britain conveniently sought to overstate them. Through negotiations the. State department agreed to pay $425,000 for damages and President Cleveland recom mended that that sum lw appropriated. Con gress refused to make the appropriation. At this point Mr. Morgan turned his at tention to Sir Julian Pauncefotc , the British ambassador , and his "doleful plaints" to Lord Klmberly. Mi. Morgan was scornful and sar castic. "Does he not know , " the senator askeO , 'that no executive agreement Is binding until ratified by congress ? " He quoted from Sir Julian's report to Lord Klmberly that republicans , populists and forty-four democrats had voted against th appropriation , and his comment attrlbullns the action of the house to the necessity of party expediency. Mr. Morgan declared con temptuously that It way getting to bo the fashion abroid attribute everything that did not plea B them to the "Influence of party politics. " UNJUST AND OFFENSIVE. He characterized Sir Julian's commen't as "unjust" and "offensive" in the case of tlio house. "But , not content with these reflections on the house , " said Mr. Morgan , "ho refers to senators by name in a gratuitous ) and In sulting manner. He doec this under the cover of the British Hag. " Afer quoting Sir Julian's comment on his ( Morgan's ) characterization of some of the alleged Brit ish claimants as "recalcitrant and rascally Americans , " ha declared that the British ambassador's strictures were based on the lotnlran n/itlmi t Ii n I t Ii a HHHull nnvltrntlnn laws uli ou Id cover violations of United Statea statutes. Crimes against the decalcguo could not , he eald , bo found In the koran. Ho denounced the action of the American -ua- rauders In Boring sea who had placed them selves under the protco'lon of the British flag as guilty of surreptitious piracy. Ho did not object to the English ambassador criticising his course either as senator or as a memb'r of tlio Paris tribunal In his private- communications to his government , but ho emphatically protested that he had no right to give his criticism to the American papers n a pamphlet mid thus forestall reply. Mr. Morgan was exceedingly Ironical In hla icferenee to the Indiscriminate nature of the claims England had bundled together and asked us to settle for a "lump sum. " The proposition to pay a "lump sum" ought to be too revolting to lie on the Christian stomach of the English ambassador. The correspondence laid befors the hotio } , Mr. Morgan said , demonstrated that thcie was no negotiation over the alleged claims and evidently little. Investigation. England had simply Jumped at the "lump sum" prop osition made by Secretary Gresham for the settlement of claims that had neither Jus tice nor morality beyond the an srtlon set up , but palpably false , that the award of the Parts tribunal in ado It obligatory upon the United Stateti to settle any claims for damages which Great Britain might make. Mr. Morgan Insisted that It was -the clear duty of the senate to obstruct the action of the president In an attempt to tide down the tower of the senate In negotiating for tha t > : tllenient of an International controversy without Its advice or consent. . CALLS IT A CONSPIRACY. Mr , Motgan went at considerable length nto what hR termed the "Infamouu con spiracy" which proceeded under the protec tion of the British flag for the violation of lie. laws of the United States , and claimed hat a thoroiigii Investigation and adjudlca- Ion of the claims would result In large al- owancea of damages to the leisoes of the i'Cal Islands , and consequently an Increased revenue to the United Slates. In concluding , Mr , Morgan again returned o his assault on the British ambassador for ils rough criticism of himself , of which h , ild ho was perhaps "unbecomingly car - ess. " "But I do not feel resentful , " he laid , 'that Instead of furnishing his complalnti to he president he nave them out to the. American press at the opening of congress vlth a view of dispelling the mlsappreh h- lon In the public mTnd. It seems , however , hat as Sir Julian had burled me under hla londerouu logic lost March Lord Klmberly houglit It necessary to exhume my r malni n v's'er to give the American people a much leedecl tonic of Great Britain's ' * cnie ot honor 3 brace U up sufficiently to Inducecongrtis o vote the 'lump sum , ' by which England cms to put a technical estoppal on aa In- YOFtlgJtlon of the justice of the damages de- namleil , " At the conclusion of tils upech , which oc- tupled two liouru , Mr. Morgan atked a vet *
