ALL DEALERS SELL IT IN BEHALF OF CUBA ———— ee Vain Efforts to Get the Belligerency Resolution Considered. RULED OUT ON POINTS OF ORDER An Important Statement by Chair- man Hitt. a REDUCING MAIL DELIVERIES a ee When the House of Representatives con- vened today the leaders on both sides were rallying their forces, and it was ap- parent that the battle over Cuba which raged yesterday was to continue today. The attendance on the floor and in the galleries was very large. Mr. Linney (N. C.), from the committee on elections No. 1, reported that M. G. L. Comer, who filed a contest against Henry G. Clayton from the third Alabama district, had abandoned his contest, and on his motion a resolution was adopted declaring Mr. Clayton entitled to his seat. Mr. Grout (Vt.) reported the District of Columbia appropriation bill. Mr. Lacey (Iowa) asked unanimous con- sent for the consideration of a bill to ex- tend the homestead laws to the territory of Alaska and to grant a right of way to any railroad company organized under the laws of any state. Mr Lacey explained that several applica- tions were made to his committee by sev- eral companies projecting roads into Can- ada, and the committee had decided to re- port this general bill. Mr. Simpson said the bill was too im- portant to consider by unanimous consens, and he objected. : Avother Battle Over Cuba. Immediately afterward the storm broke and the battle over Cuba was once more on. Mr. Brucker (Mich.) asked unani- mous consent for the consideration of a resolution which he sent to the clerk's desk. The Speaker took occasion to examine the resolution, and while doing so Mr. Bailey, the leader of the minority, loud demanded that the resolution be reported. The Speaker thereupon directed the clerk to read the resolution, which proved to be a resolution to instruct the commit- tee on foreign affairs to report without further delay the Senate Cuban belliger- ency resolution. e a flash, Mr. Hitt, chairman of the foreign affairs committee, was on his feet, with a point of order, which the Speaker promptly sustained, and was about to rec- ognize Mr. Hitt to call up th> diplomatic and consular appropriation bill, when Mr. Bailey demanded recognition. “One moment, please,”” he called; “let us first dispose of this question of order.” “The chair sustained the point of ord2r,”" retorted the Speaker, tersely. “Then appeal,” called Mr. Bailey to Mr. Brucker across the hall, and the Michigan member entered an appeal from the de- cisien of the chair. All was instantly excitement and con- fusion. A dozen members were on their feet, demanding recognition to debate the appeal, but the Speaker recognized Mr. Dalzell, who moved to lay the appeal on the table. This cut off debate, and the Speaker put the question. On a rising vote the republicans stood firm, and voted 107 to ‘4 to lay the appeal on th? table. The yeas a were demanded and obtained by e roli call was watched with intense t to ascertain whether all the repub ‘ans were willing to go on record as the: had voted yesterday in committe> of the whole, when no record of the vote was made. . The demoérts who expected to see the republican line broken were disappointed. The majority presented an unbroken front. Mr. White of North Carolina, the solitary colored member of the House, when his name was called, declined to vote at all, answering “present.” But at the conclu- sion of the roll call he thought better of his resolution and voted “aye.” The motion to lay the appeal on the table was carried—168-126. There was no manifestation of ap- preval on the announcement of the vote. The House then, on Mr. Hitt’s motion, went into committee of the whole and re- sumed the consideration of the diplomatic and consular appropriation bill. The Struggle Resumed. As soon as the first paragraph was read the struggle was resumed. Mr. Williams QMiss.) offered an amendment to direct the President to appoint three commissioners to proceed to Cuba and, if possible, ne- gotiate a treaty of peace, ataity and com- merce with the republic of Cuba, and ap- 000 for defraying the ex- es of the commissioners. It was ruled out of order. Immediately afterward Mr. Lewis (Wash.) offered another amendment pro- viding that to emphasize the fact that a stare of war existed in Cuba the consul general of the he United States at Havana withdrawn and the government of in be notified of a suspension of diplo- tic relations at that point. Mr. Hitt quickly raised a point of orde which Mr. Hepburn, in the chair, su tained. appeal from the decision of the chair,” id Mr. Lewis. ‘And I make the point that the appeal is dilatory,” exclaimed Mr. Dalzell (Pa.) The chair sustains the point of order. declared Mr. Hepburn, who directed the clerk to proceed with the reading. Ex- citement was at boiling point, and Mr. ‘Terry (Ark.) shouted <his protest. “Can it be possible that we have reached the point where this side of the House cannot appeal from the decision of the chair?” he called. Mr. Hepburn digected Mr. Terry to take his seat, and the clerk droned on with the way of discussing his amendment, however, by moving a pro forma amendment to strik» out the last word. Mr. Lewis then drew a parallel between his amendment and one offered by Mr. Hepburn in the last Congress instructing the President to dismiss the representative of the Sultan of Turkey at this capital as a means of emphasizing the disapproval of ernment of Turkey's conduct dur- ing the Armenian atrocities. On that oc- ecasion he showed by the record Mr. Mc- Creary (dem., Ky.) had made a point of order that the amendment was not ger- mane and had been overruled by the ch: Mr. Hitt pointed out that his point was that the amendment was new legislation. He did not contend that it was not ger- mane. ‘The reading of the bill went on, interrupt- ed every few minutes by five-minute speeches from the democratie side on Cuba. Mr. Sulzer (N. Y.) offered an amendment directing the President to notify Spain that unless the war ceased in thirty days we would recognize the independence of Cuba and enforce our position by force of arms. It went the way of Its predecessors, but Mr. Sulzer managed to get five minutes on a pro forma amendment, In the course of which he asked Mr. Hitt whether the com- mittee on foreign affairs intended to sup- press all resolutions and bills recognizing the frightful state of affairs in Cuba. Mr. Hitt paid no heed to the question. . Che gentleman, like his party, fails to answer,” exclaimed Mr. Sulzer. refer him to the St. Louis platform.” (Demo- cratic laughter and republican jeers.) Pingree the Text. A dash of Michigan politics was injected into the proceedings at this point by a controversy between Messrs. Brucker and Bishop ef that state. The former read some remarks of Governor Pingree from this morning’s papers, denouncing the trend of affairs in the republican party. Mr. Hishop asked if Mr. Brucker stood sponsor for Governor Pingree’s sentiments, to which the latter replied that the republican party elected him. “We repudiate him,” said Mr. Bishop. “If I helped to elect a governor on a democratic platform I should stand by him," said Mr. Brucker. “We'did stand by Governor Pingree -un- Ul he ceased to be a republican. Did you stand by Grover Cleveland?" (Laughter.) “I did,” replied Mr. Brucker, “untfl he became dominated by the same republican methods Governor P' (Republican jeers.)

It provided a change in the salary of the Urited States consul general at Havana, pending the con- tinuance of the present war. Mr. Wilson declared that it would be lot on the name of the House of Repi tives if it prevented a vote on the question of war in Cuba; a blot comparable only to that of law written in blood, and of the law written so high that it could not be read. Mr. Hitt’s point of order disposed of this last amendment. A little" later Mr. Sulzer? again got the floor with a pro forma amendment and taunted the other side with having aban- doned its platform, for Mr. McKinley’s Tessage to Congress at the opening of this session, in which the President said the recognition of the insurgents was “unwise and inadmissible” at this time. “That is what has made cowards of you all!’ shouted Mr. Sulzer. At the conclusion of the reading of the bill the general debate by the terms of tie agreement made yesterday was to fol- low. Chairman Hitt's Statement. Chairman Hitt of the committee on for- e‘gn affairs made an extended statement on the Cuban situation when the general debate on the diplomatic bill opened. He reviewed the course of the administration, the successful demands for the release of American citizens, the protest against the inhumane methods of war resulting in the recall of Weyler; the efforts to overcome the corcentration of the Cubans in town! TNese firm steps had met with signal s cess. They showed what spirit animated the President and what might be expected of. Kim. Mr. Hitt spoke of the autonomy plan and the disposition of the executive to give it a fair trial, notwithstanding the many dcubts heard throughout the country against the sincerity of the plan. SENATE. After the reading of the journal in the Senate Mr. Vest (Mo.) gave notice that he would, at the conclusion of morning busi- ness, move to take up the Teller resolu- tion, which was reported by the finance committee yesterday. A bill authorizing C. R, Dobbins, keeper of the light house at Moose Peak, Me., to accept a gold watch from the Canadian government for gallant services rendered the British schooner Ashion was passed. A bill authorizing the Attorney General, the Secretary of the Treasury and the Secretary of War to compromise and ad- just certain claims of the United States against the state of Tennessee and the state of Tennessee against the United States was favorably reported by the committee on claims and passed. A joint resolution providing for the ap- pointment of a commission to make a sur- vey of a ship canal from the lower part of Leke Michigan to the Wabash river was offered by Mr. Turpie (Ind.) and referred to the committee on commerce. Cutting Down Letter Carriers. Mr. Hear offered a resolution relative to the recent order of the Postmaster General reducing the number of letter carriers in some of the large cities on account of a deficiency in the free delivery appropria- tion,*the resolution providing that the com- ‘mittee on post offices and post roads should immediately ascertain what amount was necessary to preserve the postal free de- liv service of the country. For his resolution Mr. Hoar asked immediate con- sideration. Mr. Wolcott, chairman of the post offices and post roads committee, objected to the reference of the resolution to his commit- tee. He said that the committee was ut- terly powerless to afford relief for the trou- bie at which the resolution was directed. He thought the resolution ought by all means to go to the committee on appro- pristions. “The committee on post offices and post roads,” he added, “is anxious to extend and make more efficient the letter carrier system, bat we are powerless.” Mr. Hoar thought the question a Most important one, affecting, as it does, hundreds of thousands of persons who re ceive mail. By the order of the Postmaster General his own city of 100,000 population was startled by a reduction of ten in its force of carriers» New York, Boston and other cities throughout the country had suffered a reduction in their forces of letter carriers in about the same proportion. “This order of the Postmaster General,” declared Mr. Hoar, “created consterna- tion among business men. The order was based upon a deficiency in the appropriation for free delivery of about $150,000, All that is needed to remedy the difficulty en- countered by the Post Office Department, and which confronts the business men of the country, is a small additional appro- priation.” Mr. Carter (Mont.), member of the post office cominittee, said that the committee had this subject under consideration this morning, the discussion being provoked f some communications from New York business men. “The committee said Mr. Carter, ‘ached the conclusion,” hat there is no Gefect in the law pertaining to the postal service which requires action upon the part of our committee. What ts needed is simply arm increase {1 the appropriation for the c: rier branch of the service, and naturally the pending resolution ought to go to the appropriations committee.” “It is absolutely intolerable,” said Mr. Hoar, resuming his statement, “that this great branch of the public service ould stop or be crippled. Many of the smaller cities of the country are to be deprived practically of mail delivery facilities, ‘and it is time t something be done to avoid serious business embarrassment.” Mr. Allison, chairman of the appropria- tions committee, said that he had reason to believe there was a defect in the f delive ystem. The question involved, however, said he, is administrative and not necessarily legislative. Congress, it is per- fectly evident, cannot say how many letter carriers shall be assigned to the various rities. That is solely within the province of the Postmaster General. ‘The Postmaster General Blamed. “The Postmaster General is anxious to give the people of the United States a good carrier service,” interrupted Mr. Hoar, “but he hasn't the money.” “The point is,” resumed Mr. Allison, “that the Postmaster General has presented esti- nates to Congress too low to cover the ex- perses of his department.” Mr. Allison urged that the Postmaster Gereral be sent a resolution inquiring why the issuance of such an order as had pro- voked this discussion was necessary, and what remedy was necessary. No sugges- tion had been made to the committee on appropriations that the Postmaster Gen- eral has not at his disposal sufficient funds to meet the needs of his department. “We must not here,” said Mr. Allison, “attempt an investigation which reflects upon the Postmaster General without first having all the facts before us. Let us get some definite information from the Post- master General as to defects, if such exist in his department.” At this point Mr. Wolcott said that he de- sired to call the Senate's attention to the real basis of the trouble with the financial affairs of the Post Office Department. “It is well understood,” said Mr. Wolcott, “that the second-class- mal! of this country absorbs 65 per cent of the expenses of the Post Office Department and supplies only about 3 per cent of the revenues. This is the serious point of this discussion, and if Congress should enact into law the measure relating to second-class matter which wili be laid before Congress, the re- currence of the present difficulty will be obviated,” In Executive Session, At 2:20 p.m. the Senate went into execu- tive session.

Taken From the Guerriere After the Battle. From the Boston Transcript. > About two years ago Captain Henry D. Smith of the United States revenue ser- vice wrote .a series of séven. articles, en. titled “On the Deck of Old — Ironsides, which were published in the ‘columns of a weekly journal:of this city, the Boston True’ Flag. The articles were ‘very inter- esting and embodied every incident -known to have occurred to this famous old fight- ing frigate. One of the incidents is head- ed “How the Frigate Lost and Gained a Constitution and the Guerriere a shot from the British ship carried away the bell of Old Ironsides. As the Guerriere was rolling in the trough of the sea, her masts shot away, her bell tolled respon- sively to the movements of the shattered craft. The tones were remarkably clear and melodious, and attracted the atten- tion of a midshipman on the forecastle of the Constitution, who had been ordered to hold himself in readiness to go on board the Guerriere and superintend the transfer of the prisoners. Bearing the fact in mind that Old Ironsides no longer had a bell with which to mark the time, he resolved to transfer that sweet-sounding bell of the captured craft to the deck of the victor. The bell of the Guerriere was transferred to the deck of the Constitution by the en- terprising young gentleman, and did good service for many years. This bell must have had a history before it found its way into the British navy, and just how it came to perform duty cn a man-of-war is not so plain. It may be that the bell was on board the Guerriere when she was captured from the French in 1806 by the Blanche, an Enblish frigate of thirty- eight guns. No one was killed on board the Blanche, but one officer and three men wounded, while the Guerriere had twenty- two men killed and thirty wounded. During one of the many overhaulings experienced by Old Ironsides the bell, to- gether with other valuable trophies, was removed, became misplaced and forgotten. In this way the silver-toned bell lost its identity, was sold by auction and passed into the possession of a gentleman who placed it in a factory near the village of Saylesville, R. I., where it is now. We echo the words of the author of the inter- esting account when he says: “If the ven- erable relic could be recovered by the government and placed in its position on the deck of Oid Ironsides it would be ful- filling a mission certainly. more appro- priate with its past record and in keeping With a spirit of sentiment that should jeal- ously guard and preserve trophies of a grand old type of fighting vessels that have forever passed away.”* Around this bell, about four inches from the crown, is the following inscription: “Peter Seest, Amsterdam, anno 1: fecit.”. The figures carved thereon indi- cate that the bell was long used on a con- vent in England, and was sequestered dur- ing the reformation, or it may have done duty on some continental house of wor- ship, and thus haye found its way on the deck of the Guerriere before her capture from the French. —___+ e+ —___ Origin of Oxtail Soup. From the New York Post. Among the Protestants driven from France by that astute and liberal-minded sovereign Louis XIV were ea colony of “weavers, who, all the world knows, set- tled at Spitalfields in England, where their for their industry, the wanderers were re- duced to the last extremities of destitution and hunger. Looking about them for any- thing that could be utilized for food, they discovered that owners of English slaugh- ter houses threw away as worthless the tails of the cattle they killed. Like all the poo: in France, these worthy weavers were excellent cooks, and knew that at home such “caudal appendages” were very highly valued for tlre tenderness and flavor of the meat. To the amazement and disgust of the Engitsh villagers, the new arrivals pro- ceeded to collect this “refuse” and carry it home for food. As the first principle of French culinary art is the “pot au feu,” the tails were mostly converted into soup, on which the exiles feasted and thrived. Their poor neighbors, astonished and en- vious at seeing the despised French indulg- ing daily in savory dishes unknewn to En- glish palates, and tempted like ‘Jack's’ giant by the smell of “fresh meat,” began to inquire into the matter, and slowly real- ized how, in their ignorance, they had been throwing away the most succulent and deli- cate food. The news of this discovery gradually spreading through all classes, oxtail became, and has remained, the na- tional English soup. ———_-+e+—_____ The elevator in the Hotel Waldorf-Astoria fell fourteen stories yesterday.

A ranchman's cattle Once are what he looks to for by far the greater part of his in- come. Nearly ali the work done on the roneh is for their use and benefit, and they have to repay him. To increase his herd as the capacity of his ranch increases is the ranchman’s idea. As long as a man has only a few cattle, say perhaps twenty- five cows, he can give them the best of care, and all the feed in the winter they can “lay to,” and the increase will reach a very high percentage. Quite likely every cow will bring a calf for the first year or two. As the numbers increase, however, the percentage drops. It is always much better In a new country and on a fresh range. Here is an opportunity for indus- try in stock raising to show itself. In the early days, when large herds were the fashion, the “industry” many men dis. played in securing a large “calf cro was through the medium of a branding fron. It used to be a common saying on the prairies that a good rustler with a branding iron would beat any man’s herd of cows in the matter of increase. By the word “rustler” was meant an energetic, unscrupulous man. One would hear of some big stockman and be told that he started ten years ago with a single black steer and branded over 200 calves the first year—a truly phenomenal increase.
