LARRRRARE Cot CUBAN INSURGENTS The Impression in Regard to the Loss of the Hawkins. MR RUBENS TALKS ON PRECEDENTS Mr. Sherman’s Resolution of 1870 More Applicable Now. WHAT BELLIGERENCY IS The Cuban question was the chief matter of interest at the Capitol today. The for- eign relations committee, in reporting a res- olution on the subject to the Senate, disap- pointed general expectation by the mildness and incompleteness of the resolution. Those wh» have been interested in the question do not think that anything can be accomplished by the mere exercise of good offices to in- duce Spain to recognize the belligerency of the Cubans. The minority report submitted by Mr. Cameron, which wants the President to exercise his good offices to induce Spain to recognize the independence of Cuba, is criticised from the same point of view, that it requests something from Spain that she is not disposed to grant, and does not coa- template that recognition ef belligerents by this country, which is sought. The Case of Hawkin: The discussion of these resolutions and of the sinking of the vessel Hawkins ts very general. A cummon theory is that if the Hawkins was really a Cuban vessel she was proba- tly sunk by some Spanish sympathizer on board. Another theory advanced is that the sinking of the Hawkins may have been a device of the Cubans themselves to cover some other move. The Cuban representa- tives here deny any knowledge of the Haw- kins and do not show any excitement or anxiety on account of its loss. This Incident is Hable to hasten the bring- ing before Congress of this Cuban ques- tion in another form. There is a disposi- tion among certain pro-Cuban men in Con- gress to attack the course of the admin- istration in the prosecution of filibusterers. It is expected that the question will come before Congress in the form of a resolution declaring that the rules of neutrality do not warrant the interference with the car- 1ying of passengers or shipment of arms to a foreign country in a state of war. During the former Cuban revolution Mr. Sherman, now chairman of the foreign re- lations committee, took much more ad- vanced grounds than that taken by his committee now. Mr. Sherman's Former Resolution. On February 11, 1870, he introduced the following resolution: “Whereas the United States cbserve with deep interest the civil war now existing in Cuba and sympathize with the people of all American nations or colonies in their efforts to secure inde- pendence of European power; therefore, be it resolved, That the United States recog- nize the existence of a state of war be- tween the kingdom of Spain and the colony of Cuba, waged on the part of Cuba to es- tablish its independence, and the United States will observe strict neutrality be- tween the belligerent parties as is their duty under the law of nations.” In introducing the resolution, he asked that the committee on foreign relations ‘at least give us the benefit of fair play between the colony of Cuba and the king- dom of Spain.” In answer to the sugges- Ucn of the necessity of investigating the facts in the case before taking action, he said that “the simple fact that the power of Spain is building in our own ports thirty gunboats which can only be used in put-! ting down the rebellion in Cuba 1s a suffi- cient fact of itself without going into folios of documents or a great lot of testimony.” What Mr. Rubens Says. A Star reporter called the attention of Mr. Rubens, the general counsel of the Cu- bans at Washington, to this matter today and asked what difference there might be in the situation in "70, when Mr. Sherman introduced the resolution, and at the pres- ent time. “The revolution at that time,” said Mr. Rubens, ‘“‘was much weaker than the pres- ent revolution, and was confined to the easterly provinces. The resolution which was then considered proper is warranted now by a stronger set of circumstances in yavor of the recognition of the belliger- ents.” He added further it must be noticed that in 1870 there was no suggestion that it was necessary to the recognition of belligerents that they should have a port or a capital seat of government, but that the simple state of civil war, which was known to xist, should be recognized. , he said, had never been {nsisted on. rl Russell,” he said, “in upholding granting belligerent rights to the southern confederacy by England, relied, like Mr. Sherman, on the preparations of the north to overcome the rebellion as sufficient evi- dence of the belligerency of the southern sta’ In this country we have precedents of granting belligerent rights to Texas and South American colonies, in which the same position, substantially, is taken. After the recognition of the belligerency of Texas, Mr. Forsyth, then Secretary of State, in a letter dated September 20, 1836, to Mr. Gorostiza, says: ‘It is a well-known fact that vessels of the South American prov- nces were admitted into the ports of the United States under the!r own or any other flag, from the commencement of the revo- lution, and it is equally true that through- out the various civil contests that have taken place at different periods among the states that sprung from that revolution, the vessels of each of the contending parties have ‘been alike permitted to enter the ports of this country. It has never been necessary as a preliminary to the extension of the rights of hospitality to either, that the chances of the war should be balanced and the probability of eventual success determined. For this purpose it has been deemed sufficient that the party had declared its independence, and at the time was actually maintaining it. Such having been the course hitherto pursued by this government, however important it may be to consider the probability of success, if a question should arise as to the recog- nition of the independence of Texas, it is not to be expected that it should be made @ prerequisite to the mere exercise of hos- pitality implied by the admission of the vessels of that country into our ports. The declaration of neutrality by the President in regard to the existing contest between Mexico and Texas is not intended to be confined to the limits of that province, or of “the theater of war” within which it was hardly to be presumed that any collision would occur or any question on the subject arise, but it was- designed to extend every- where and include as well the United States and their ports as the territories of the conflicting parties. The exclusion of the vessels of Texas, while those of Mexi- co are admitted, is not deemed compatiple with the strict neutrality which it is the desire and the determination of this gov- ernment to observe.” Mr. Adams’ Position. r. Adams, in a nete to Mr. Rush in as to the acknowledgment of the bel- ligerency of the Spanish colonies, concern- ing their condition before the acknowledg- ment of belligerency, said: ‘But while this state of tnings continues an entire equal- ity of treatment of the parties is not possi- ble. There are circumstances arising from the nature of the contest itself which pro- duce unavoidable inequalities. Spain, for instance, is an acknowledged sovereign power, and, as such, has ministers and other accredited and privileged agents to maintain her iutcrests and support her rights conformably to the usage of nations, The South Americans, not being acknowl- edged as sovereign and independent states, cannot have the benefit of such officers. We consider it, however, as among the obligations of neutrality to obviate this In- equality, as far as may be practicable,with- out taking a side, as if the question of the war were decided. We listen, therefore, to the representations of their deputies’ or agents, and do them justice as much as if they were formally accredited. By ac- knowledging the existence of a civil war, the right of Spain, zs understood by her- self, is no doubt affected. She Is no longer recognized as the: sovereign of the prov- inces in revolution egainst her. Thus far neutrality itself operates against her, and not against the other party. This also is an inequality arising from the nature of tho struggle unavoidable, and, therefore, ‘not incompatible with reutrality.’ “Fhe Precedents in This Country. “It will be seen,” said Mr. Rubens, “from these references and other authorities on the subject, that the precedents in this country.are in accord with those interna- tional law writers who claim that beiliger- ency is neutrality or impartiality, and nothing more. Lorimer states the proposi- tion thus: ‘By recognizing belligerent rights neutral powers pronounce no judgment whatever, either on the merits of the claim or the probability of its ultimate vindica- tion. Belligerent recognition is a mere dec- laration of impartiality. To withhold from the claimant for recognition the rights of belligerency, while we extend them to the parent state, would be plainly to take part in the war.’ “The resolution which Mr. Sherman of- fered in 1870," said Mr. Rubers, “is much more strongly warranted now than it was by that lesser revolution, and the authori- ties show that it was in full accord with the requirements of neutrality even at that time.” To TO MEET ELSEWHERE. Place for the Next Woman Suffrage Convention. At the meeting of the executive commit- tee of the Woman's Suffrage Association this morning, which was held in the parlors of the Arno, there was a large at- tendance. The most important item of business was the question of the piace for the next convention. Invitations from a number of cities were received, among them St. Louis, Charleston, S. Denver and Portland, Ore. The constitution of the association says that every alternate meet- tng of the association may be held in some other city than Washington, but is not mandatory on the subject. Consequently Miss Anthony and some of the other suf- frage leaders were in favor of holding the next convention in this city as the center of influerce of the United Statcs, lest ‘he impetus which the cause has received from the convention just closed might be Jost. It was finally decided by vote, however, that the next meeting should be held in some other city. Then a motion was made that a mid-year conference should be held here next winter during the session of Con- gress when some of the best sneakers in the association should be brought on to hold a one or two-day open meeting. This motion was lost, as the committee thought that Washington {is the hardest city in the country to influence that way and that such a conference would only interfere with the complete success of the regular meeting. The question of selecting ihe place of meeting for the twenty-ninth an- nual convention was left to the committee to decide in the near future by a letter vote, when all the invitations are in and the inducements offered by the different citles ar@ fully understood. —_—.—__ ‘The John Hay Industrtal School. The colored people of Alexandria, Va., are interesting themselves in industrial educa- tion. In November, 1804, an indusirial school was established under very discour- aging prospects. The managers, however, have persevered, and feel confident that their labors will be rot in vain. At first the sehool was known simply as the Alex- andria Colored Industrial School, but re- cently it has been named in honor of John Hay, the author of the Life of Abraham Lincoln. The school {s temporarily located at 803 Madison street, in a smuil, rented building. It has enrolled fifty scholars, and is taxed to its utmcst capacity for room. The trustees have planned for a building of their own as soon as available funds can be had. The school has received the in- dorsements of City Superintendent of Schools Kemper, ex-Mayor Strauss and others. Mr. Rutherford Lyon of this city will serve as local treasurer to receive funds for the school. ———— Dicd Suddenly. Today about noon a colored man ramel Jefferson Hewkins, fifty years old, who lived near 4% and L streets southwest, ard who was employed at Sheriff's wool yard on Pennsylvania avenue, was taken {Il with @ hemorrhege while at work. He died in the sixth precinct patrol wason while be- ing taken to the hospital. His body was then removed to the morgue. Coroner Hammett deemed an inquest unnecessary, and gave a certificate of death from natural causes. ——___ Mr. Holland’s Assailant. Policeman O'Dea has arrested the colored man Albert Colbert, who, it is charged, as- saulted Mr. Milton F. Holland of 411 1st street northeast several weeks ago by strik- ing him on the head with a spade. Mr. Hol- land, as printed in The Star at the ti was in a dangerous condition for several days, and although able to be about now he has not fully recovered. Today Colbert was taken to the Police Court and charged with assault with intent to kill. He was committed for a further hearing. ———— Misery in Newfoundland. Tho abject misery of the pzople of New- foundland cannot be expressed. Hundreds are starving and without fuel, while se- vere snow storms are raging. The au- thorities appear to be powerless to afford relief. The unemployed are quiet, but it is feared that they will not remain passive much longer. A pelition for work is being numerously signed. It is reported that the governor Is preparing a scheme which will provide emplcyment within the next week. | An Artery Severed. Joseph Brown, colored, twenty - three years old, was arrested last night between 10 and 11 o’clock and sent to the’second police precinct. When the stetion was reached it was found that an artery above the prisoner’s right eye had been severed, and he was so weak from loss of blood that he had to be sent to Freedman’s Hos- pital for treatment. ———_—__ Horse Perished in the Flames, Yesterday afternoon about 3 o'clock an alarm of fire was turned in for fire in John Becker's stable, in rear of No. 630 11th street northeast, where a horse perished in the flames. The loss is estimated at $250, on which Mr. Becker held no insurance. ——_+-e-+—___ New Wood for Lend Pencils. From the Petaluma (Cal.) Argus. A car load of redwood to be used in mak- ing lead pencils was shipped the other day from Sangor, Cal., for Nuremberg, Ger- many. Some time ago experts from Ger- many. investigated the resources of the Pa- cifle coast in an effort lo find a substitute for cedar, the forests of Europe, from which the supply of that wood for lead pencils has hitherto been obtained, having become exhausted. TILLMAN’S SPEECH (Continued from First Page.)_ 44 appointments oply of those whose sponsors would surrender their manhood, and, with bated breath,’ walk with submissive head in his presence. With relentless purpose he has ignored his oath of office to uphold and obey. the law, and has paid out gold instead..of coin and issued bonds to buy more gold, by both actions overriding the law, and giving no heed to the interests of any but moneyed friends—I might say his owners or partners.” “While to this besotted tyrant coin has come to mean gold adhe; he cannot by his Mere ‘ipse dixit’ changethe law of this land and pervert the plalh meaning of the Eng- Ush language. His regublican partners in crime, who set the unrighteous and unlaw- ful example which has so persistently followed, and encoufaged him in it to the unmost extent, cannot escape the con- demnation of the honest, working, business men of the country ag equal partners in his guilt.” The Repeal of the Sherman Law. ‘The repeal of the Sherman law, it was as- serted, which was the first point of attack of this “unholy alliance,” was only accom- plished through the aid and in conjunction with a majority of the republican Senators. “This democratic President accomplished what was not possible for any republican executive under the circumstances to have brought about. A change of the party in power had left a large number of offices in his gift with which to buy votes.” In discussing the “honest meanings” of parity of gold and silver in the Sherman law, he said: “The object was to have them aseist each other, to hold silver up by hobiiag gold down, and an honest Secretary of the Treasury, who should have resigned his office rather than submit to the dictation of a besotted chief, would have paid aut silver to protect the treasury from the gold gam- blers and bond camblers, ay the law and his oath of office required. But, alas! the old breed of southern statesmen’ like Cal- houn, who, after a life spent tn the pubiic service, had to be buried at public expense and his debts paid by the Stat: of South Carolina, is no more. No wonder the Sen- ator from Massachusetts feels warrante] in twitting us with the decay of southern statesmanship and charging us with dls- honesty. He charges it, however, in an- other connection and as aiding an abetting this Judas from Kentucky, who, after a brilliant career of twenty years and more as leader and champion of the silver forces, has, in his old age, come to this pitiful pass. And then to think that the indictment thus brought against a whole section should have so much color of truth and of fact to back !t up in the apostasy from their principles of the two other Secretaries from the south of a President who has so disgraced the name of democracy. “The south bows {ts head in shame at this exhibition of moral cowardice and de- spises the renegades; but I must remind the Senator from Massachusetts that there is as yet only moral turpitude and sreac ery to be charged against these men. The southern Congressmen and Senators who came here poor are still poor. They have not become millionaires, like some of their northern brethren; and there is no Credit Mobilier steal, or Colfax scandql, or Bel- knap bribery chargeable to any ‘southern man. Let him remember these things and keep back his sneers and taunts.” Tne Senator contended that if there has been one idea more persistently and prom- inently presented to the American people by President Cleveland’ than any other it had been the iniquities of the tariff and the demand for its rev In season and out of season, with ~ ble iteration,” he had sung this sire: ae in the ears of the farmers. In this corin¢ttion he quoted from messages of the Presifent of 1887 and 1888 and said he did iy for “the p pointing out the evolution of a of showing the tramsitigh from a conscin- tious, law-abiding chief magistrate to an arrogant and obstinate ruler, who ignores the law and issues Vond§ at will, and issues them under a statufe that is “subject to the suspicion that it Was intended to be temporary and limited’ in its application instead of conferring @ discretionary au- thority.’ He not only isSues them, but does it secretly, with hig law partner as a wit- ness to the contract, ate has created the suspicion in the mfnd$, of millions of his countrymen that a President of the United States can use his high office for private gain. : “He differs with the republican part} only in'the’one particulgr of the tariff, and on that hé has blown hét and cold, as his pet hobby, and will go down fin history as the most gigantic failure of any man who ever occupied the White House, all because of his Yanity and obstinacy.” What the President Should Have Done “To make good this charge,” Mr, Till- men argued that when P: lent Cleve- land came to power, in Mare 133, and eculd have called the Senate Hous? (beth democratic) for the first time since the war to carry his policy into effect, he did not call an extra session to give tariff reform to the pie, but Instead called Congress together to stop the coinage of silver. He, the President, “had waited un- til the ‘object lesson’ the panic manufac tured to orcer by his fellow conspirator: had swept like a lone over the country, prostrating all business enterp: and dustries, and the newspapers in chorus in the ears of the people coinage of silver was the cause of monetary crisis. Discussing the repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman law which followed, he said: “Democrats and republicans vied with each other in the furtherance of the policy which had been formulated and -steadily pursued by the Senator from Ohio, and he has the proud satisfaction of knowing that he has brought the party which he so hates to its knees, and has lived to see many of his old antagonists enlisted under his ban- rer of monopoly and class privileges. Th: sit at his feet and acknowledgé his lead- ership. 1 “When the Senate met there was an ac- krowledged majority of men open and out- spoken in their determination to stand by the white metal, and who were ¢lected on that issue. But the process of debauchery began, ‘Vote according to my will or you will have no offices.’ ‘Vote according to my will and if your people do not like it I will take care*of you.’ The newspapers raved and abused the Senate.

The Senator then referred to the fall in the prices of all farm products. The !m- poverlshment of the farmers had destroy- ed, he sald, their ability to purchase on the one hand, while the decreased prices of their products of export in European mar- kets had left our debts for imports and interest on obligations abroad unpaid. Hence the export of gold to meet these ob- Lgations. In this connection he said in part: “Rothschild and his American agents graciously condescend to come to the help of the United States treasury in maintain- ing the gold standard which has wrought the ruin, and only charges a small commis- sion of ten millions or so, Great God! That this proud government, the richest, most powerful on the globe, should have been brought to so low a post that a London Jew should have been appointed {ts re- ceiver, and presumes to patronize us.

Because he is carrying out republican policies, and the majority in the House of Representatives feel safe and believe that they are certain to elect the next President and obtain control of the government. They are willing to load down the incompetent or dishonest democracy ( incompetent and dishonest de- ) with th® odium of the Iisgov- to lend their help by acquiescence in wrong doing. The policy is to do noth- ing—to preserve a masterly inactivity, and obstruct where relief could be given. The encroachments of the federal judi- eiary, and the supineness and venality— corruption, I may say—of the representa- tive branches of the government, are causes of deep concern to all thinking and pa- triotic men. We are fast drifting Into gov- ernment by injunction in the interest of monopolies and corporations, and the Su- preme Court, by one corrupt vote, annuls an act of Congress looking to the taxation of the rich.” er. “The struggle from 1861 to 185, which dreachod this fair land in. blood, ‘was to- e treasury, which ri been uSurped by t emancipate four million black slaves. are fast approaching a cond which will place the collar of industrial bondage around the necks of ten times that many white slaves.

In concluding the Senator said: “A day of reckoning will come unless there is no longer a just God in heaven, and when it does come, woe be unto those who have een among the cppressors of the feople. The present struggle is unforts like that which preceded the late ci Inasmuch as it is sectional. The creditor nufacturing states of the uorth ve grown inordi- pense of th zar.

And the new Mason and Dixon's line, which is drawn not by the surveyor but by denial of the natural and inalien- able right to Hfe, liberty and the pursuit of happiness to a large majority of citizens, will sooner or Jater bring together in the bonds of union the toiling and now down- trodden masses of the cities and the equal- ly desperate masses of the country; agrari- nism agd communism will join’ hands. ‘There are millions now on the march, and they tramp, tramp, tramp; tramp the side- wal hunting work and tramp the high- ways begging bread. Unless relief comes they will some day take a notion to tramp to Washington with rifies in their hands to regain the liberties which have been stolen from them, or which the representa- tives heve sold, and the hitherto conserva- tive force of the republic—the well-to-do agricultural class—will no hand to stay the march, but join it.. God grant that our country may be spared the enactment of such scenes as were witnessed in Paris in 1789. But the fair flower of liberty planted by Jefferson and the Immortal Declaration of the Fourth of July, 1776, watered by the blood of our revolutionary sires under Washington, cannot be uprooted or smoth- ered by the noxious weeds of monopoly and class privilege without bloodshed.” The Public Schools.

They think that while other similar roads are being pushed to various points in the county, that this company cennot afford to stand idle. The scnatorial question having been set- ted, it is now expected that the legislature will buckle down to the business of the ses- sion, and in this connection the passage of several bills of interest to the people of this ccuntry is anticipated. Among those measures wanted is a law for the perma- nent improvement of the publie roads, one regulating the time of the game season and one giving justices of the peace the power of a police rt in the settlement of all cases of petty larceny, simple as- sault and other minor infractions of the These cases now go before the cir- cuit court, entailing a large expense to the taxpayers.
