He is a vir- tual butcher, and the rapidly disappearing game is evidence that his day should pass. All of us who love the days of recreation with gun and dog must submit to these changed conditions as gracefully as we can, and aid the work by adopting the six- teen-gauge, or smaller, if one happens to be an extra good shot. ——+e-+___ The Prussian government owns and works seventeen collieries, eight lignite mines, fourteen iron mines, five metallifer- ous mines other than iron and three rock salt mines, together with five iron works and seven works for smelting the other metals, six salt works and five quarries, which together produced an output of total value during the financial year 1895 of more than $30,000,000. o: ° 2 2 > : bd g Notions That Talk 7 and Prices That Tell. ¥% Tuesday is notion day, and we g “ill make special displays and - prices for the thousand and one small articles necessary and con- enmient for all.

FINAL VOTE WAS 67 YEAS, 21 NAYS eee ae Disclaimer of Intention or ‘Desire to Obtain Cuba. ee eT CLOSE OF THE DEBATE ———— The Senat> Saturday night passed the Foraker resolution, inéluding the recogni- tion of the present Cuban government. The recognition clause, which was stricken out of the resolution reported by the ma¥ jority of the forélgn relations committe, was reinserted on motion of Mr. Turpie by a yote of 51 to The resviution as adopted follows, the last clause having been added by a unani- moits vote “Juint resolution for the recognition of the indepsndence of the people and republic of Cuba, demanding that the government of Spain retinquish fits authority and gov- ernment in the Island of Cuba, and to with- draw its land and naval forces from Cuba and Cuban waters, and directing the Presi- dent of the United Stites to use the land and naval forces of the United States to carry these resolutions into effect. “Whereas the abhorrent conditions which have existed for more than three years in the Island of Cuba, so near our own bord- Senator Hoar. ers, pe have shocked the moral sense of the ple of the United States, have been a disgrace to Christian civilization, culmi- nating. as they have, in the destruction of a United States battle ship, with 266 of its officers and crew, while on a friendly visit in the harbor of Havana, and cannot longer be endured, as has been-set forth by the President of the United States in his message to Congress of Aprii 11, 1898, upon which the action of Congress was in- vited. Therefore, “Resolved, by ‘the Senate and House of es of the United States of a, in Congress assembled, That the people of the Island of Cuba are, and of right ought to be, free and independent, and that the government of the United States hcreby recognizes the republic of Cuba as the true and lawful ‘nment of that island. ‘Second. That it is the duty of the United States to demand, and the govern- ment of the United Btates does hereby de- mand that the goverument of Spain at once relin hority and govern- ‘ment In the I i of Cuba and withdraw its land an! naval forces from Cuba and ent of the United y 1s, directed and empowered the’ entire land and naval forces of the United States, and to call Into the actual service of the United s the militia of the several states, ich extent as may be necessary to these resolutions into effect. That the United States hereby ims any disposition or intention to cise sovereignty, jurisdiction or con- trol over said island, except for the pacifi- cation thereof; and asserts its determina- tion, when that is accomplished, to leave the government and control of the island to its people.” This resolution was adopted on the final roll call by a vote of 67 yeas to 21 nays. Sixteen or cighteen speeches were made after The Star's report closed Saturday. One of the most significant incidents was the contention between Mr. Elkins and Mr. Proctor, excited by the speech of Mr. Elkins. . Mr. Elkins Against Recognition. Mr. Elkins claimed that some compensa- tlon should be got out of the war with Spain, and that, therefore, the republic otf Cuba should not be recognized. He said that it was plain war could not be avoid- ed. This feeling for war was so strong that some could not wait over Sunday. His reasons in opposition to recognition, briefly stated, were: The insurgents had not won their independence, as nations seeking recognition always have; the in- surgent government ts, by its constitution, only temporary, and such recognition was contrary to American doctrine for a hun- dred years. He thought the resolutions as prevented by the foreign relations com- States be te use ator Allison, mittee ought to be amended so as to pro- vide that the recognition should be given by the President—the only power that could give it. Mr. Elkins challenged the state- ments of Mr. Proctor as to the conditions on the island. He declared that it would be impossible for a man to go through a lara in rebellion and gather absolute facts and information. Mr. Proctor asked, “Will the senator ac- cept the statements in the consular re- ports?” Mr. Elhins replied: “I'd a thousand times rather accept your statements than those of the consuls, but there are other men, not, perhaps, 80 eminent as the senator from Vermont, who report a state of af- fairs entirely different from that reported to this Senate.” He said that he had the testimony of a responsible witness who had Itved in Cuba —a man with half a million dollars, who disputed the statements of Mr. Proctor and of our consuls. This witness, he said, was Mr. Atkins. This statement provoked a subdued laugh- ter throughout the Senate, something of Mr. Atkins’ relations with the Spanish authorities in Cuba being generally under- stood. Mr. Elkins declared that the United States ought to take Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippine Islands, in order that we might have some compensation for an enormous war debt. If afterward it was desired? to give the Cubans their independ- ence, he was willing, as he had always be- lleved they ought to have it. He sald if the matter was cealt with in this way it would dispose of all the trouble and confusion about the bonds, debts, etc. ‘The Views of Congal McGarr. . Mr. Proctor replied to Mr. Elkins. Mr. Proctor sald: “I should not have sald a word on this matter except for the fact that the senator from West Virginia (Mr. Eikins) challenged my statement in regard to the strength of the insurgent army, and, unkindest cut at all, he chal- lerged it on the streni of what Mr. At- kins of Boston said. In regard to Mr. At- kis, I will refer any senators who wish to inquire as to him to the junior senator from ed S(Mr. Ledge), who knows him well.S- > “My statement Tegard to the strength of that army. from the reports -of our consuls m a great many other sources, at from the statement of certeinly the fir I think two of the largest bankers in Havana, who have their correspondents in every town and city of the island, and whe told me es near as they could judge e strength of the two armies. 5 “I went to Cienfuegos, near which Mr. Atkins’ plantation is Bituated. I saw be- fcre I gct there, e241 jharned from various sources after I re&chef that city, that Mr. Atkins had had special Spanish government. in going olcng im ee rs. that there was a much larger force guarding his mills than those in other sections. His sugar mills, a favors from the Wes evident, even Senator Hale. and others in his vicinity, were running, although all the wey from there to Havana there was hardly one. He had had the op- portunity to run bis mills while others vere destroyed. 1 tearned also, to speak plainly, that Mr. Atkins had our consul, Mr. McGarr, at Cienfuegos, in his pocket. “Mr: McGarr was- appointed from Ten- nessee, and I am confident that th> senior senator from Tennessee (Mr. Bate) will not object to anything I say in reference to him. I was told that Mr. Atkins was very generous with certain stimulating bev=r- ages which had a lubricating effect upon the consul’s mind and tongue. “I wish now to state, Mr. President, pre- cisely what conversation took place. I will state it in three minutes, though th2 con- versation with our consul, Mr. McGarr, oc- eupied an hour. The first inquiry I made was about Mr. Atkins. I told him that Mr. Atkins was from my own vicinity in New England. “Mr. McGarr told me that Mr. Atkins was the finest man in the world; he could not say too much for him. I then asked him about the condition of the reconcen- trados and th> deaths. He told me that the statements were greatly exaggerated, and he also said ‘this trouble would have been ended lorg ago if it had not been for the United States.’ These were his exact words. I should say that Miss Clara Bar- ton and Col. Parker of this city, Dr. Eagan of Boston and Mr. Elwell of Kansas were present. “We were sitting about a table in a res- taurent. I asked him how many of the re- concentrados in the whole island he thought had did in consequence of the reconcentra- tion order of Weyler. I thought that hi views would be very low, and I suggested a very low number, and asked if it was from five to ten thousand. ‘Oh, no,’ he said, ‘not near as many as that; from one to two thousand.’ :Said:J, ‘In the whol2 is- land? ‘Yes, in the.whele island.’ “He went on tojsay;that they were in very bad condition,when they were driven in. They had beea out,in the swamps and wer half starved. I sald to him, ‘I sup- pose they wer? fed Dy the municipalities and by citizens.’ ‘Ohayes,’ said he; ‘they were well supplied When they came in.’ Said I, ‘I suppose that this munificent bounty was mainly,.from Spanish citizens.’ He said it was, certainly. Said I, ‘Is it not probable’—I_ admit ,J agked leading ques- tions (laughter)—tis.ij- not probable that, coming in in such»a naif-starved condition, this munificent bounty” was the cause of killing @ great many ##f them? He said, ‘There 1s not a do\ypt of that.’ (Laughter). I am willing to l-ave Mr. McGarr with that statement.” 25 Mr. Hale Spenks of a Dendlock. Mr. Hale, in protesping-against the adop- tion of the resolutien.after it had been amended and Jeupstttuted; for the House resolution, was called to order. “The action the Senate 1s about to take, he began, speaking slowly and impressive- ly, “places it in deadlock with the House and the President of the United States. It is a remarkable spectacle we are presenting to the civilized world—” But he got no farther; Mr. Teller and Mr. Wolcott were both on thelr feet. The latter declared passionately that Mr. Hale's state- ment was most important. He said as a republican he demanded to know upon what authority it was made. “I ask the senator whether he 1s authorized by the President to declare that our contemplated action will place us in deadlock with the President?” Before Mr. Hale could reply Mr. Teller made the point of order that it was unpar- Namentary for a senator to refer to the ac- tion of the other house or the President. The Vice President read the rule and asked Mr. Hale to proceed in order. The latter said he proposed briefly to state the reasons for his opening statement. He did not pretend, he said, to speak by the au- thority of the President or to know in any contingency his future action. “But I do know if the motion of the sen- ator from Minnesota prevails,” he con- tinued, “it will bring the Senate into dead- lock with the President, as shown by the message he has submitted to us.” Mr. Teller again called Mr. Hale to or- der and again the Vice President had the rule read. Mr. Hale seemed but slightly disturbed by these interruptions. Proceeding again. he remarked upon “‘the remarkable spe tacle” the Senate presented. “We are not asked to legislate,” he con- tinued, “upon ordinary matters, but upon a grave national question that involves war. It is proposed here to disregard the leadership of the chief magistrate. He has left us in no doubt as to the lines of policy which may compel us to enter upon war, if such it is to be, with Spain. He has told us that the conditions in Cuba are not such as will permit our recognition of the republic of Cuba. He has blazed the policy. The war in Cuba must stop. Noth- ing is plainer than that intervention is to be resorted to, and he asks to be instructed to use the army and navy for that purpose. “And now here today with this policy marked out, with everything we desire about to be corsummated, with freedom to Cuba assured and intervention by arms, if necessary, decided upon, the President is to be confronted by the Senate's effort to define another policy. We are to thrust this resolution in his face, a resolution he has declared he does not believe in and does not want. The chief executive is the nearest rpproach to a ruler this country knows. Shall he be opposed?” Mr. Bryan's Influence. Proceeding Mr. Wale'expressed the deep sense of regret with Which he had, in the last few days, witfsé4 the melting away of the spirit of cojgaryative sentiment in the Senate. Senatons who had opposed the recognition of theo4iidépendence of Cuba had one by one and d4§ by day come into line for that decldfitioh. He said he had wondered why it whs #8 and he had found the solution of the? prdblem in a banquet “given on last Wdntiiday night in this one city to the Hen.

Many of the democratic senators gaye manifestations of their disapproval as Sen- ator Hale was reading the account of the speech. The solidification of the demo- cratic party, Mr. Hale continued, was not to be attributed to any caucus or conven- tion action, but to this symposium. But all this attempt to make politics out of the situation, he continued, would not succeed. If war came it would not be conducted by the democratic party. The country would not turn to that party and the flag of the United States would not be carried by that party, but by that gallant soldier and statesman, the President of the United States. He would conduct the war and bring it to a successful conclusion. The democratic senators and democratic party which now seemed so intent upon hostili- ties with Spain would be found when war Was actually upon us impeding and ob- structing the “course of those who were new seeking to avert war with all its hor- rors, but who would then be in the fore- front fighting for the honor of their coun- we Mr. Gorman Urges Support of the President. Mr. Gorman (Md.) followed Mr. Hale, and by his manner, by the vehemence of his utterances, showed how greatly he felt the gravity of the situation. He counseled a temperate policy and urged that the ran- cor of debate be eliminated from the oc- casion. He criticised the attacks made by senators upon the president as the com- mander-in-chief of the army and navy and fercibly declared that party politics shouid give way to a higher duty in the deter- mination of the question. He questioned the wisdom of the resolution as adopted at hoped that wiser counsels would pre- ‘The message of the President, he said, read to him as a declaration of a man who bad exrausted al: diplomatic efforts to bring peace out of chaos and now came to Congress for authority to strike the blow that would give the Cuban people freedom from yecrs of misrule. “Every loyal democrat,” he said, “would be found behind the President, not as ‘a democrat, but as an Americana citizen, up- ‘holding the hands of our great commander in the war. now almost upon us.” He said-that the open criticism of the President was to be deprecated and he wished the record as made up might be blotted forever and only a united people shown uppermost to the world. He closed amid profound stillness and the occasion was worthy a place in the history of ne- tions. He said: “I pledge myself to for- get that McKinley was elected by the re- publican party because I know and be- lieve that as President of a united people he will bear his country’s flag aloft and that no nation, Spanish or otherwise, will receive from him aught else than that fair, manly and brave treatment of an Ameri- can Precident.” The Prerogative of Recognition. Mr. Allison (Iowa), seemingly laboring under intense excitement, his face flushed and with voice trembling, said that no man could doubt his loyalty to the country nor the flag, but he seriously doubted the wis- dom of doing that which had been a ques- tion of controversy since the days of Wash- ington, down to the present time, the as- sumption of Congress to declare the inde- pendence of & nation, in contravention of the welt-known principle of internation] law. He said the amendment had been forced into the resolution in the face of the fact that the President aid not counsel or even advise such action, but on the other hand had declared emphatically against it. He said the present Cuban re- public was but a skeleton government and under the forms prescribed might with entire propriety in its own gopd time enter into a conveation with Spain to the ex- clusion of the United States. He argued that the republic of Cuba chould be recog- nized by treaty, the initiative to be taken by the President, as is his lawful right, thereby making a case for ourselves that the nations of the world could not ques- tien. He outlined the disagreement proba- ble between the two houses and guardedly hinted at the conference which would be necessary and frcm which would come a resolution upon which the representatives of all parties could unite and which in the light of history now making would stand the assaults of international law. Mr. Aldrich (R. I.) said he believed that every senator appreached this question with the keenest sensibility of its import- ance. While he could not vote for @ res- olution embodying recognition of independ- ence, he believed that in some way—some how, a resolution would within forty-eight hours be presented that all men of all parties and beliefs could and would heartily support, and that the resolution would be satisfactory to the President, the Congress and the people. ‘The Democratic Position. In reply to Mr. Aldrich and to others who had just spoken, Mr. Jones (Ark.) de- clared that it was the wish of a large ma- jority of Congress and the people that the resoluticr, adopted should recognize the Cuban republic's independence, : “One of three things,” he said, “was recessary to.be done. Either the island was to be held by Spain on some sort of or it was to be attached to the to be recogni independent pow “On last Menday, after aus gone had been discussed amorg senators here everywhere, and after a number of us had expressed the opinion that there should be a clear and distinct declaration on the part of Corgress that we intended to establish an independent government in Cuba, that there was no intention either to restore the domination of Spain or to attach that isiand to this rey ee President’s _— came in, there was a sense disappointment that the word ‘ind ent’ was not mentioned in the recommen- power of supé! there to prevent an overthrow, to maintain, to uphold, or sustain whatever government might be. established in the island.

Hence the vote cast in the House of Representa- tives on that question by a political party. Simply because a man happened to be a democrat certainly was no reason why he shoull not be allowed to say by his vote that he vanted an independent govern- ment in Cuba and did not want to acquire the island by conquest. This vote was cast in the House before the meeting to which the senator from Maine and the sen- ator frcm Icwa have seen fit to refer.” For Recognition.

It is a curious and interesting study t compare the various materials which servi the different nations of the world as tht basis of their bread. In this country, wher¢ good bread, made from spring and fall wheat flour, is within reach of all, rarely a thought is given to the fact that, after all, the inhebitants of only a smali portion o! the earth’s surface enjoy such a food. It the remoter part of Sweden the poor maki and bake their rye bread twice a yzar and store the loaves away, so that eventuaily they are as hard as bricks. Further nortt still bread is made from barley and oats In Lapland oats, with the inner bark of tht pine, are used. The two together, wel ground and mixed, are made into large fai cakes, cooked in a pan over a fire. It dreary Kamchatka pine or birch bark by itself, well macerated, pounded and bak=@ frequently constitutes the whole of the na- lttve bread food. The Icelander scrapes the “Iceland moss” off the rocks and grinds it into fine flour, which serves both for bread and puddings. In soms parts of Siberia, China and other eastern countries a fairly palatable bread is made from buckwheat. In parts of Italy chestnuts are cooked, ground into meal and used for making bread. Durra, a variety of the millet, is much used in the countriss of India, Egypt, Arabia and Asia Minor for making bread. Rice bread is the staple food of the Chi- nese, Japanese and a large portion of the inhabitants of India. In Persia the bread is made from rice flour and milk; it is callod “lawash.” The Persian oven is built in tha ground, about the size of a barrel. Tha sides are smooth mason work. The fire is built at the bottom and kept burning until the walls or sides of the oven are thorough- ly heated. Enough dough to form a sheet about one foct wide and about two fret long is thrown on the bench and rolled until about as thin as sole leather, then it is taken up and tossed and rolled from one arm to the other and flung on the board and slapped on the side of the oven. It takes only a few moments to bake, and when baked it is spread out to cool. This bread is cheap (one cent a sheet); it is sweet and nourishing. A sp>cimen of the “hunger bread” from Armenia is made of cloverseed, flax or linseed meal, mixed with edible grass. In the Molucca islands the starchy pith of the sago palm furnishes a whit>, floury meal. This is made up into flat, oblong loaves, which are baked in cu- rious little ovens, each being divided into oblong cells to receive the loaves. Bread is also made of roots in some parts of Africa and South America. It is made from man- ico tub>rs. These roots are a deadly poison if eaten in the raw state, but make a good food if properly prepared. To prepare it for bread the roots are soaked for several day: in water, thus washing out the poison; the, fib2rs are picked out, dried and ground into fiour. This is mixed with milk, if obtain- able; if not, water is used. The dough is formed into little round loaves and baked in hot ashes or dried in the sun. ——_- ---eee___-__ Different Views.
