No importance, therefore, should be attached to these that remain, the largest party of whom does not exceed fifty men. The Western rail- road, the principal nerve of the province, runs trains daily without interference. The same is true of the telegraph and tele- Phones. Through hill and dale are troops constantly marched, and at the most meet insignificant parties of rebels, the sur- render of whom began a few weeks ago with some regularity.

Weyler cannot truthfully be gaid to have achieved a single success, diplomatic, ad- ministrative, military or otherwise. There are probably more insurgents, better armed and supplied, in Pinar del Rio at the pres- ent moment than at any time since the in- surrection broke out. General Weyler once openly remarked that the western part of that province alone contained 7,000 armed men, and that large additional “bands” of insurgents were hovering about his trocha. The Spanish commander sent 50,000 men against the little insurgent army, and the latter, acting with admirable ‘strategy, seemed to disappear, and the best efforts of the Spanish generals have failed to discover There is an extraordinary mortality at Artemisa among the families which have been gathered there, on account of the hunger, dysentery and malaria. Since General Weyler’s order to concen- trate in the towns in the province of Ha- vana, thousands of country families have abandored their homes tn Vegas, losing their crops and whatever means of sub- sistence they had, and seeking security in the towns. It will be difficult, however, for them to obtain subsistence, on account of the scarcity of vegetables, fruits, hogs, etc. Today many are sleeping out of doors in the open air, and each house contains three and four families. Santiago De Las Vegas reports that there has been a great dispersal of the insurgents since the concentration of families in the towns, as they are unable to secure grocer- 1216 E St. N.W. ickle, Manager. pla (WALTER, GRADUATE QF MISS ‘rains from the south, arrive at Wash- Peabody “Institute of Baltimore, Po: nist and teacher: Studio, Bradbury — Piano Satiding. i225 Pa. ave.

The civil governor is known to be using his influence with the commercial bodies here to bring about Weyler’s recall, and protests against his conduct have been sent to Madrid receritly in great numbers taken, and that in the exam‘nation of it there were possibilities which might cause a man to change his mind many times. He suid that until he could give the matter such attention as the subject demanded he would not be quoted upon the matter. He said that one phase might be instanced: At present there might not be anything in view to arbitrate, yet after general arbitra- New 3, éte., printed waiter, ag from New York on Wednesdays take spectally address printed iat- ter, ete., for EUROPE. ‘The America: Canard and French Line steamers sen Remi’, ater, ety, Wt itm for | and couched In the most emphatic terms of | Hon had been agreed ‘belpreseated by ane Ns Cor SCAT RD ORCA “amenica, | disgust and disapproval.

These unknown quantities might be a serious objection io making any definite agreement. Senator White of California says that he would support the treaty, if at all, because it was for a short period and was largely experimental. It might be that the expe! ment would prove successful, but he fear- ed that in every contention that would arise some new principle might be brought forward which it might not be good policy to submit to the tribunal proposed in the treaty. He said some question relating to the Morroe dectrine might arise, and that question the United States would not care to submit to arbitration. Another case in- stanced by a senator who has given the a reat some thought was Cuba.

The Eu- ropean powers, Great Britain included, might dispute the right of the United States under Monroe or any other doctrine uch matter to Madrid from here have been frustrated by the captain general. But this has not prevented several urgent messages from being sent from Key West to Madrid, and it is believed the action taken will not fail to have the desired effect in the near future. The movement against Weyler has “its roots in the most influential circles here, the very quarters where Spain counts her stanchest supporters, and, therefore, it is not believed possible that the government can much longer ignore the fact that little or nothing can be done toward the real so- lution of the Cuban question so long as Weyler is captain general of the island. His military incapacity is not the only feature complained of. The air is full of rumors of wasted funds and rotten contracts, of sol- diers suffering from lack of food, medicme and ammunition, which, on the other hand, is said by some means or other to have fallen into the hands of the insurgents or to have entirely failed to materialize.

The views of Secretary Seward, upholding this principle, were cited. The only exclusive sovereign power of the President was in granting pardons. The framers of the Con- stitution had been careful to so restrict the powers of the President that he would not grow great in his own conceit and he held the powers which do hedge ut a king. The recognition of foreign govern- ments heretofore given by the President had become effective, Mr. Bacon said, through the silent acquiescence of the law_ making power. Mr. Hale interposed to assert that the logical conclusion of Mr. Bacon's argument was to annihilate the power of the Presi- dent and setup a government solely by the law-making branch. Mr. White (Cal.) asked if the President's recognition of a minister from a new gov- ernment could bind Congress and the coun- try, to which Mr. Bacon emphatically an- swered in the negative. Mr. Hale asked if Congress could send that minister home, to which Mr. Bacon answered in the affirmative. Mr. Bacon declared that the logical result of this claim of exclusive power in the President was to make him greater in arbitrary power than any monarch on earth. It would permit him, in case of a trifling up- rising in Manitoba, to recognize a handful of people as constituting an actual govern- ment, while, on the other hand, he could withhold recognition from Cuba, although Cuban independence had become an accom- plifhed fact. But the senator maintained that no such royal power was given by the Constitution to the President. In the most public manner, Mr. Bacon said, the Secre- tary of State had defied the power of Con- gress, and had announced to the world that if Congress adopted the Cuban resolution it would be vetoed by the President. It was practically an announcement to Congress that its resolution, if acted upon, would be thrown back in its face. Never before was such a defiance of Congress presented, and if it was to stand without protest there would be at least one conspicuous prece- dent for the assertion of exclusive execu- tive power. An agreement was reached for a vote on the free homestead bill at 4 o'clock today. On_the conclusion of Mr. Bacon's speech the Senate, at 5:10 p.m., adjourned. —————e—______ The Japanese Empress Dowager Dead sires in place of Weyler is Polavieja, now captain general of the Philippine Islands. Polavieja, who knows Cuba thoroughly, is said by the Spaniards to be an honest man and a general who can be counted upon to terminate the war in short order. ‘The ad- vent of Gomez in the western part of Cuba is liable to be the straw which will turn the tide in favor of Weyler’s recall, which is only held back because the Spanish min- istry does not like to be placed :n the posi- tion of giving way in this matter to the condemnation which the captain general and his methods have met with in the American newspapers. Devastation in Pinar Del Rio. A correspondent of La Lucha of Havana, writing from Pinar del Rio under date of January 9, gives a description of his trip from Artemisa in the following terms: “All of the tract traversed by the rail- road from Artemisa to Consolacion del Sur has undoubtedly suffered most from the rigors of war. The fields are laid waste and abandoned, the bushes and trees are burn- ed, and the yellow and decayed leaves are strewn by the wind as tears drawn from mother earth pained and anguished by the folly of men. The huts are destroyed and the stone houses, which in other times were happy homes, have been converted by the hands of the rebels to heaps of ruins, whose black and fallen walls, covered with lichen, only serve as a refuge for the lizzards and owls. “The fields are dried up by the ravages of fire and covered with a new growth of bushes. The towns, the authorities of which are making titanic efforts to foresee and remedy the necessities of the inhabit- ants, are full of the people of poor families who daily march down from the hills at- tenuated by hunger and thinned by the fevers in such a way that they appear like skeletons risen out of their tombs to ap- pear before the final judgment. To the right and ieft of the road as the train winds its rapid way the traveler contrasts with anguish the desolation and ruin and the inextingulshable poetry of the fresh and exuberant fields, always green with the eternal verdure of spring, as if God with His eloquence would point out to us that the only thing we men can do is to destroy the beauties which have surged from His bounteous will. “All this painful panorama presents it- self without shame in all ~ (a) TRANSPACIFIC port of sailing d arranged on th MAILS sare forwarded to the and the schedule of closing is presumption of their uninterrupted overland transit.

New York's Supreme Court Gives Out . an Important Opinion. Justice Russell, in.the New York supreme court, yesterday, formulated his ruling that a divorce procured in North Dakota by a resident of New York state is invalid. The case was that of Henry P. McGown against Mary Emma McGown, the plaintiff suing for divorce on the ground that the defend- ant was unlawfully living with Harry Bell as his wife. Mrs. McGown, after procuring a divorce in North Dakota, had married Bell. In his decision Judge Russell said: “The wife's place is at the home of her husband and child, and she cannot acquire a foreign residence for the express purpose of freeing herself from the charge of vio- lation of duty and exempting herself from its obligation. Nor if she had gained residence in the state of North Dakota would her suit there have been effective. To sever the marriage ties by judicial force, the courts must gain jurisdiction by per- sonal service of the process upon the de- fendant or by his voluntary appearance. “When the defendant,” sald the judge, “went through the form of a marriage to Bell, she was still the lawful wife of the plaintiff. Her own wrong-doing; therefore, cannot render valid:‘the judgment of a North Dakota court, which bill for that account would have been wholly invalid.” A sult brought by McGown against Bell for the alienation of his ,wife’s affections, in which he claims $100,000 damages, 1s. pending, and will shortly:tbe tried. 2 To Build a Penitentiary.
