Col. Cisneros Investigat: tems—American Capita eated—Mail Facilities. Col. Francisco Javier Cisneros, a wealthy Cuban engineer, well known in South and Central America, as well as in the United States, is in Washington, enlisting the sup- port of capitalists in the interest of several projects which he will undertake in Cuba at the close Of the war. Col. Cisneros has been spending the last two or three days, in company with Senor Quesada, charge @ affaires of the Cuban junta, and Lieut. J. F. Arteaga, visiting the Post Office De- partment and inspecting the various meth-, ods employed in the different branches of the postal service. They have been con- ducted through all the divisions and obta'n- ed a ¢000 idea of the general workings of the United States postal system. Some time has also been spent with the local officers of the Western Unie clegraph | Company in acquiring knowledge which will be of great value in constructing the Proposed telegraph system in Cuba after Spanish sod‘ers have left the island, and | in which project Col, Cisneros is greatiy in- torested, The postal and telegraphic s: Cuba under the Spanish regime very | inefficient, and since the outbreak of the war they have been almost entirely aban- doned. The insurgents have rendered the transmission of mail by the Spanish gov- ernment a thing practically impossible, and they have also cut the few telegraph wires and poles extending across the island. Only“ in the extreme eastern section of the island do the Cubans maintain what is in fact a/ most meager and inefficient Il service. It | is very uncertain und has practically “no em. The purpose of Col. Cisneros in this city 4 at this time is to familiarize himself with | the workings of these two important sys-‘ tems in the United States, in order that he may undertake the establishment of such institutions in Cuba as soon as peace is de- clared. The present constitution of the Cu- ban republic provides for the appointment of an officer corresponding to our Post- master General, but there is no such officer in Cuba now, owing to the fact that there would be no duties for him to fulfill and the want of any postal or telegraphic sys- tem. There is no doubt, however, that Col. Cisneros will occupy that portfolio in the first Cuban cabinet when peace is secured | for the island, and his purpose will be to organize a thorough and efficient postal | system, and also have the supervision of | the telegraphic service. Col. Cisneros also has plans for the con- struction of the Grand Central railroad of | Cuba, to extend through the island from | east to west and connecting all the princi- pal cities and towns. This project will cost many millions of dollars, and Col. Cisneros has already enlisted the attention and sup- port of a number of wealthy Americans in the proposed road, and expects to have a company organized with practically unlim- {ted capital and ready to undertake the work as soon as Spain withdraws her sole diers from the island. Col. Cisneros is somewhat reticent about talking of his proposed plans, but is con+ fident that at the close of the war Amer-i! ican capital will readily invest itself inf Cuba, with the positive assurance of large and remunerative returns. Practically every progressive institution will have to be built up anew in the island, and the latest im- rovements in every line will be taken ad- antage of. Railroads will have to be built, telegraphic lines constructed, schools and public buildings erected, and ‘this, to- gether with the large profits te gained through industrial and commercial pur- suits, will produce flourishing conditions at the close of the war. He believes that there are fortunes awaiting those who will cast their lots in the island during the next few years, and that Cuba will be one of the most prosperous republics in the world. Everything wiil be new and upon the most at Col. Cisneros has a very interesting per- and is a man of wide experience and knowledge. He is sixty years of age, and was born on the Island of Cuba. He received his education in Havana and in‘ He received his degrees of civil and mechenical engineer in La Sobornne Uni- in Paris, and the Massachusetts Polytechnic Institute at Boston. After graduating he served in the ten years’ war during the entire struggle, from 16S to 1s78, and his services as civil and me- chanical engineer were most valuable to the Cubans. He entered the Cuban revo- lutio: army with the rank of lieutenant and was promoted to a coloneicy. He has been engaged by a large English syndicate in the construction of a railroad in Colom- bia, S. A., and for a number of years has been employed in South and Central Amer- ican countries on large engineering projects. He has frequently been in the United States and is well and favorably known by many American capitalists. He has amassed a considerable fortune, but has expended more than one-half ‘of {t, amounting to several hundred thousand do! in the present Cuban cause, and has been, in fact, one of the chief supporters of the insur- gents during ‘heir struggle. While engaged in enlisting the support of moneyed men of the United States In Cuban enterprises, Col. Cisneros is also traveling to benefit his health, and will remain in Washington for several days.

The Hawaiian resolution occupied the Senate until about 5 o'clock yesterday af- ternoon After The Star's report of the Senate proceedings was closed yesterday Mr. Pet- tigrew entered upon a long argument In favor of employing our Own ports as coal- ing stations, instead of annexing undesir- able lands in the tropics in order to obtain a port of which the count had not the slightest need. Although he had not con- cluded his speech, Mr. Pettigrew, on ac- count of fatigue, yielded the floor to Mr. McEnery (democ Louisiana), who pre- sented a constitutional argument against annexation. Mr. McEnery said that the conditions in Hawaii after annexation would be an ex- aggeration of the condition of the south during the days of reconsiruction. It would be overrun, he declared, with crimi- nals and with social and political adven- turers. There would be on the islands @ carnival of crime and debauchi that would be a disgrace to our people and our government. Mr. McEnery yielded to Mr. Jones (Nev.), who favorably reported from the commit- tee on contingent expenses the resolution authorizing the committee on public lands to investigate the official conduct of Spe- cial Agent C. A. M. Schlierholz. The reso- lution was so modified as to make the in- vestigation discretionary with the public lands committee and then adopted. Mr. Pettigrew presented a conference re- port upon the bill to ratify the agreement entered into between the Dawes commis- sion and the Seminole Indians, the House conferees having agreed to all cf the Sen- ate amendments. The report was adopted. At 5:05 p.m. the Senate went into execu- tive session, and at 5:55, after confirming a large number of nominations, adjourned. ———_—_-e. —— cF BILLS PASSED.
