Spain ? Should we not tmy to Spain that
nome nort of protection , ome port of Justice
nml liberty , tonslstent with an enlightened
aec , must ( is shown from these people ?
"Spain nor contemplate * the annihilation
of nil the able-bo'llo'l men of Cubt In order
to crush thin uprlsliiR. Spain owed to Cuba
M much as Turkey ones to Armenia , or an
the United Stslei to Venezuela , a duty of
protection , and If thl protection Is not Riven
then the point ha been reached when the
United States nhould move for the severance
of Cuba from Spain. "
At 1 IB Mr. Sherman bcjan hh speec'i ,
closlnR the debate. Ho i-polic of the keen
seraltlvonoea of iho Spanlih people and their
tcrdencj- quickly resent any act they re-
carded as Injurious to them. lint. Mr.
Sherman said , be felt that the time had came
when the United States must Intervene to
put an end to crime nlmont beyond dcscrlpt
Ion. The senator * ld ho would not re-ctne
on the ICRM arguments so fully covered by
Mr Morgan , but he referred to sevcra
pairphlets prciente.1 by Mr. Estrada Talma
the apent and representative of the Cuban
In this country.
Mr. Sherman fald the statement bore the
fitamp of authenticity. He said Hover
came the misapprehension Unit tha Cuban
were scattered , unorganlroil bands. I
showed the orRanlratlon of a legislature
of the army , of the president the latter n
man of high charlactcr. It was BH complct-
nn orsanlfitlon at the United States bad
during the revolutionary war.
The ruloa of war observed by the Cubans
were humane and honorable. rtoulnR "one
of the barbarous ferocity of the Spanlin
troops. The senator read fioin the order
of General Maximo Oomcr show Ing the hu
mane treatment ordered for prisoners
It was In striking contrast with the mur
derous course * pursued by General Weyler
the SpanlBh commander. The entire Span
Ish force now In Cuba was distinctly Span
tin. Nn ttust was placed In any in in o
Cuban birth. This Spanish fgrcn today was
Krcator than the entire nrltlah force sent
to the United States to combat our nlrug
Klo for Inlepsndcncc.
While Mr. Sherman was sp-aUIng of the
character of the Culnns Mr. Morgan aske
to read a letter Just received from on ofil-
clal of the National Capital bank of this
rlty , who. with the president of the bank
hud travcleJ through Cuba. The letter de-
Rcrlbcd the Cubans as an honorable , chiv
alrous , high-minded people , bravp to an ex
treme , ready to risk their lives for patriotIsm -
Ism ,
BAD FAITH OP SPAIN.
Mr. Sherman went on to speak of the
bad faith of Spain In putting down the
former rebellion , when reforms were prom
ised and never executed. The rule of Spain
lias always been oneof Iron , of oppression
and of atrocltlPB. The senator pal-1 a glowIng -
Ing tribute to General Gomez , commander oi
the Cubans , who had been pictured as a
brigand ,
"Gomez Is a man of standing , of char-
pcter. " said Mr. Sherman. "He Is probably
nn Idealist. Dorn In San Domingo , ho went
to Cuba to fight this cause of liberty. Ho
ought to be , anil will be. considered a pa
triot at some speedy day. "
Turning to the material Interests of the
United States In Cuba , ho showed that the
tnclo of the Island with the United States
was $32,000,000 annually , and the trade of
the United States with the Island was $19-
000,000. "But mark It , " said Mr. Sherman ,
"I do not favor the annexation of Cuba to
the United States. In my Judgment the
Island should become a part of Mexico , being
of the tame people , and I would be glad to
see that accomplished. "
Mr. Sherman said ho would now turn his
attention to "the saddest phase of this
whole subject. " He referred to the recall
of General Campos , a humane soldier , and
the substitution of General Weyler. who
has been well christened "the butcher. " "The
events of the last thirty days In ronnect-
tlon with this appointment had changed bin
whole feeling , " ho said. "This mnn Wcyler
Is ono of the worst men who could bo sent
to pacify n people. His warfare Is massa
cre. He openly avows It. Ho Is a brute ,
pure and simple. His hands are staineJ
with the blood 0 ! defenseless men and
women. "
In support of this statement Mr. Sher
man sent to the desk and had read ex
tracts which were most startling and sen
sational. They recited atrocities of Weylet's
former command In Cuba , which sent a
noticeable murmur of horror through the
oronded galleries. Ono of the statements
was that General Weyler had captured pa
rents and their several daughters , pretty
Bcnorltas. lie had ordered the young girls
stripped nuked and then compelled them
to dance thus naked before the Spanish
troops , while the parents , driven to tie !
point of Insanity , stood by. But this was
not all. Mr. Sherman was Interrupted nt
this point find asked that the recital be
suspended. The senator went on to give
extracts from recent Interviews with Wey
ler. In which ho spoke of exterminating
the Cubans. These showed him to bo , said
Mr. Sherman , a demon rather than a gen-
eial.
WAUNHD THfi GALLERIES.
Then the senator added : "If this con
tinues , in earthly power can prevent the
people ot the- United States from going to
that Inland , sweeping over It from end
to end and driving out thi o birbarlans. "
At this fervid sentence the galleries broke
Into ( cud find continued applause , while the
vice president loudly gave warning that
under their rules , If the demonstration was
fopjated , the galleries would be cleared.
Mr. Sherman said every Christian heart re
volted nt this rule of oppression. We did
not want any Armenia at our doors. We
could not shield ourselves , like Great Brit
ain , by saying Armenia was too far away.
Cuba was right beside us. The- rules of
civilized society , the spirit ot the age , de
manded that Spain should be compelled to
stop these cruelties. Not only the United
States , but the countries of the world would
unite In this demand ; and If Spain failed
to heed It , and Weyler carried out his pro
jected plans , there was not a point on the
American hemisphere which would not take
up arms to put an end to the Infamy. I
stand responsible for tno course wo must
take , " said Mr. Sherman , In closing , "and
confident In the Justice of this course , con-
lldont In th ? Justice of the Almighty Ruler
of the universe , I feel we should aid In
securing Cuba the tame liberty wo now
enjoy , "
Mr. Sherman was again warmly applauded
as he closed , and Mr. Oalllnger took the
floor. Ho graphically portrayed the woes
which Rpaln InlllctcU on the Cubans , quoting
n.any newspaper articles , and declared that
General Weyler was beginning to live up
to his name. In conclusion he said : "God
speed the day when Cuba shall be free. "
Mr. Lodge ackud to have placed In the
Record the outline of Weylor'B forthcoming
proclamation cent by the correspondent of
the Associated prets nnd said this alone
would Justify nny action the s.enato would
take. General Woyler's policy of shooting
down defenceless people was begun , said
Mr. Lodge.
. "There was a people struggling against
rrongg beside which the grievances which
led the American colonies to rebel against

MR FIIYB WAS TIRED.
Mr. I'rye raid "I anheartsick and tired
to sec day after day this splendid republic
ot ouri doing police duty for the most
wicked nation on the face of the earth. "
After rtadlni ; an account of the Bermuda
a flair , Mr. Fr > continuing , nald that he
had been mortified and humiliated by It
beyond , measure. Although recognlrlng the
rupremacy of law , he would hc bean dc-
HghtcJ If Almighty God , without loss ot
human life , could have sent a commotion
to send skyward the seizing vessel nrd
send the other Cubaward. In closing he
Raid he would vote for anything which
v ould aid tSe cause of the Cubans , who were
M successfully striving tr wrest liberty
from the grasp of a relentless despotism.
Senator CaKrey took an opposing view-
on tha question. He declared Spain must
b treated as belonging to the family ot
civilized nations , nnd tcld alt rules of In
ternational law should prevail In the deal
ings of this nation with the rebellion. At
tacks upan th- past conduct of Spain were
out of place jn this discussion. AVhlla her
treatment ot the Indians of South America
might have been differed In a degree Iron
the treatment glxen this race by all civil
Ized nations , It did not differ In kind , Wha
had we , askel the senator , to watt ant a
declaration of a belligerency , much less
of Independence ? There was not a uclntllli
of actual evidence warranting this action
The senator said h did not favor nny
course contemplating the taking up of arms
against Spain In favor Cuba. If we Interfered
feredIn the affairs of Cuba , said he , we
do so with the Implied thlcat that we wtl
protect Cubi. Against the power of the
United States Spanish chivalry and valor
would not lust half a campaign. Weak ni
Spain la she would resent nn unwarrnntc
Interference. Lest we Incur the Imputa
tion of bullying a weaker nation , the United
States should move with caution , Mr. Caf-
frey opposed the resolutions because congress -
gre-ss had no power , and the facts did not
warrant action If we had the power.
ALLEN FAVOHRD FULL RECOGNITION
Mr. Allen read an argument as to tlio
legal tight of congress to recognize Inde
pendence. The Ectmtor spoke at greal
length , referring to Spain as an "outlawed
nation" and Weyler as a "bloody butcher , '
while the crowded chamber was evident ! }
desirous of proceeding to a vote. Mr. Allen
bald he would not only recognlre Cuba , but
he would establish her as cue ot the na
tions ot the earth , and for that purpose
would summon our armies and fleets to
Cuba's aid. Let war come , It should nut
check us In our duty.
At this point numerous amendments , gome
verbal , were offered. One by Mr. Call pro
posed a proclamation by the president rec
ognizing the Independence of Cuba.
Mr. I'ascoe called attention to the Import
ant fact that the- pending committee reso
lution was "concurrent , " which , according
to usage , did not need the president's sig
nature. Ho urged that It be a Joint resolu
tion , thus endorsing the picsldcnt In Ills
actions. "The reasons against adopting a
Joint resolution , " said Mr. Sherman , "Is
that the president would be compelled to
act within ten days , while a 'concurrent'
resolution will express the wish of congress
and allow the president to act when the
circumstances warrant. "
Mr. Pascoc said this was the A cry rea
son he believed the resolution should go to
the president In order to obtain speedy ac
tion. Ho offered an amendment directing
the president to Issue a proclamation of
belligerency.
Mr. Cameron offered nn amendment for
extending tlfe ft loudly offices of the United
States to Spain tor the recognition of the
Independence of Cuba.
"I am authorized by the committee on
foreign relations to accept that amendment , "
said Mr. Sherman.
Mr. Sherman mo\eJ to lay on the table
the tosolutlon of Mr. White requesting the
executive branch to grant bclligeicncy and
adding sympathetic expressions as follows :
Wo are of the opinion that the ex
ecutive department , to whose investigation
and care our diplomatic relations have been
largely committee ! , should recognize-
belligerency at those who nro maintaining
themselves In Cuba In armed opposition to
Spain , and that the influence of tlie olliceis
or the United States may be prudently ,
quickly and effectively exerted to the end
that Cuba may be enabled to establish a
permanent government of her own choice.
The motion to table prevailed , yeay , D7 ,

spuato against a limited sympathetic resolu
tion. The vote to table the White resolu

CHICAGO , Feb. 28. A special to the Rec
ord from Washington ms : The rcmarkab ]
speech of Mr. Carter In the panate , taken In
connection with that ot Mr. Carlisle at the
Manhattan club In New York a few day
ago , has started a good deal ot talk over the
reorganization of the old political parties am
a division of the people upcn new lines
Both the republicans and democrats ncem nl
most hopelessly divided upon the same Issue
and that most Impottant before the American
people today. The parties arc united upon
every other. More than half the democrats
In congress declare that they will not support
the candidate to bo nominated at Chicago
unless ho pledgee himself to free coinage
A conservative portion of the republicans say
the tunic concerning the candidate to be
nominated nt St. Louis. Why , It Is aaltcd
cannot those In both parties wlto think alike
get together and name- men who agree wltl
them ? A great many people believe that I
dbcusslon and division continue much longer
that will happen. Secretary Morton sug
gested such an expectation upon hl < part. It
a newspaper Interview not long ago and there
nro these who claim to have heard the presi
dent predict a general breakup and reorgan
ization bcforo the end of this administration
but It Is not likely that there will be an )
bolting from either paity until after the na
tional conventions are held nnd the platforms
are adopted.
The republican leaders do not expect nny
bolt. Both Mr. Teller nnd Mr. Carter , who
announced the terms ot the sliver senators ,
declare that they will not leave the repub
lican party nnd that they cannot be driven
out , no matter who Ii nominated.
"I am a republican and I always expect to
be a republican. " said Mr. Teller. "I am
Just as good a republican as John Sherman
cr George R. Hoar , and there Is Just as much
probability bt their leaving tbo party as
there Is of my leaving It. I have said t'-at
I will not support the republican cand.datc
for the presidency unless wo can make some
satisfactory agreement on the bllvcr ques
tion. I think that agreement can bo made ,
but If It Is found Impossible I will still continue
tinueto be a republican. I do not Intend to
vote the democratic ticket , no matter who Is
nominated en cither side. "
Senator Carter says : "We are going to
got together before the St. Louis convention
The silver men are not going to bolt the re
publican party. There are many other Issues
upon which we agree , and they would hold
us together no matter how much wo might
differ on the money question. Nevertheless ,
we western foll&ws'Intend ' to have something
to say about Ihe management nnd the po'lcy
ot the party. We'don't propose to let New
Rngland nnd New'York lead us around any
longer by thencse1. "

r O T Tlpkptn.
A serious quarrel has broken out among the
transcontinental roads over the division of
vhat are known ns cltcle rates that Is , rates
going by ono route and returning by another.
The origin of the dispute Is the refusal ot the
Illinois Central to accept lower proportions
on tickets rcadlrg from Chicago to San
FrnnclfcoIa New Orleans and returning
via Portland and St. Paul than tickets return-
ng via the direct routes from San Francisco.
: ts refusal in this respect leaves little or noth-
: is for the roads from St. Paul or the Mis
souri river to Chicago. They declare that
ho Illinois Genual thould not be allow ed to
sell Pacific coast tickets at short line rates
via New Orleans.

NBW Y011K , Feb. IS. The United States
authorities have taken a step In the liermuJ.i
casa that gives great satisfaction to the Cu
bans. Heretofore there has been no legal
process In connection with the sclrttre ot
the steamship nnd the lighter James S. T.
Strnnnhan nnd the lighter's cargo ot arms
and ammunition. They were detained under
executive orders , the president of the United
States haxlng power to act In such cases ,
but no com t authority had been brought Into
le'.iulsltlon , except In the case ot the men
for whom warrants had been Issued.
James J. Mncklln. attorney for McCildln
Bros. , who own the steamer Strannhnn , made
i demand on the United States marshal
Wednesday for the release of the lighter.
Ho was asked to wait until the district at
torney could look Into the matter and readily
acceded. DIsittlct Attotney Macrarlune last
night filed n libel and Information on be
half of t'ic government against the cargo ot
the Stranahan , described as containing SOO
liackages of gun ponder and dynamite , cart
ridges and other substances of like character.
The action Is brought under sections 1,475
and 4.47C of the United States rexlsed stat
utes , which provide for the packing of ex-
iloslves for shipment , and a penalty of a
fine not exceeding $2,000 or Imprisonment
lot exceeding eighteen months , or both , for
violation of the requirements , which are that
they "shall be securely packed and put up
separately from each other and from all
other articles ; and the package , box , cask
or other \cssel containing the came shall
bo distinctly marked on the outside with
the name or description of the article con-
alned theiolu. "
The cases on the Stranahan containing ex
plosives arc alleged to have been not thus
narked. The libel notifies nil concerned to
ippear Match IT before Judge Brown , In
he United States district court , to show
cause why the packages described should
tot bo seized and forfeited.
Speaking ot the case , Horatio S. Reubens
of general counsel for the Cubans said : "Tho
ctlon of the district attorney shows tint
tc has abandoned the Idea of acting on the
ground of Infraction of the neutrality laws
lo thus Introduces a novelty In such cases.
'here was no warrant for the government's
rtlon on the lines followed , because In all
335s that liavo gone before based on the
neutrality laws the government has failed. "

CHICAGO , Feb. 28. The Post's Washlng-
on special says : Beyond n question the
Jnlted States Is nearer war than It has been
or many years. The temper of congress Is
trongly In favor pf active Intervention for
ho independence of Cuba , and without a
oubt Is prepared to commit this govern-
lent to extreme measures In support ot
! iat position. Members of the senate anil
loubo of representatives ) ha\c been over-
helmed with exprcEulotiB of sympathy from
very kind of organization and from linn-
reds ot thousands of Individuals , all Indi
cative of oageinosa for the liberation of
uba. and not a man on the floor of either
hamber hag the slightest fear ot offending
ils constituents in going to the extreme In
ils direction. The American spirit has been
o thoroughly arqused that corgrean and the
president feel that they have a practically
unanimous endorsement In aiding the revo
lutionists , and Jt 1 $ only a question of a
few hours when there will be an open decla
ration to the effect that Spain must either
terminate hostilities on the Ham ! or admit
the Independence of the Insurgents.
The first Impulse was to put politic ? ahead
of national patriotism and to confine the
glory of the resolutions to congress * . But the
termendous enthusiasm with which the move
ment lias been received by the country at
laige has very much broadened the view a of
the leaders of both branches of congresi and
there Is a manifest willingness to make the
re'olutlons Joint In form , so as to permit
the president to participate In the perform
ance.

SAID I
For yearj the Kirks have had an oxprct
chemist , one ot thu first In America , nt
work upon the problem of a perfect washing
compound. They have recently succeeded
In completing It , and the public will now
have the results of the discovery. H was
lo have- been called "Itain Water Maker , "
but as It not only softens the water , but Is
also a perfect soap , combining for the first
tlmo In the world theo two qualities1 , It Is
known a ? Cos The connection Is evident
Eoa ( the sun ) could bo no brighter than
this substance makes whatever It touches ,
and as the rayi of the- sun give life to allen
on earth , 9 } will this newly-found article for
the launchy work glvo health to the pkln
and rejuvenate all It comes In contact with.
ICIUIC'S KOS ( i : MX III Ol ? SOAP ) .
The ainiiy IMirnoMCN for \Vlilcli ItYn
UoNlKitci ! .
Kos was designed to bo a perfect wnsh-
Ing compound ; a preparation that would do
tha family washing better than It had over
been done before , with less labor and with
out the UEO of a particle of soap. To ac
complish such wonderful results the bsst
equipped laboratoty In the United Slates has
been bending every cffoit for years past.
Wo belleva that the public Is fully aware
that when a piece of goods passes the cruc'al
tsst of the chemist In charge , of .this exten
sive laboratory and the preparation oincrces
from the factory bearing tiio name and trade
mark of Jame ? S. Kirk & Co. , that It must
be as near perfect as modern science can
ina-e It.
Among the other advantages Has has over
any washlnc powder on the world's market
today are : That a llttlo Kos In the water
makes It soft and velvety. Anyone putting
their hands In water prepared with 1-os will
almost Immediately exclaim : "My , this
water feels like satin ! "
Wo also guarantee that l os will prevent
flannels and woolens from shrinking a par
ticle , and that If you wash your flannels In
water In which Eos Is used they will como
out ot the wash soft , fleecy and white. For
all scouring and denning purposes Eos oc
cupies a pre-eminently first position.
Use Eos to wash your dishes and for gen *
eral kitchen work !
Use Eos to scour your milk pans !
Use Eos In to clean your paint !
Use Eos In your bath !
Uco Eos when you scrub > our floor and
wo rcteat that your work will be done bet
ter than It has ever besn done hcrutnforo
at half the labor and expense.
