2 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1896. Spanish ranks. The Spanish commander, General Castellanos, sent six carts to get the wounded, thus accepting the prison- ers, who were delivered by the Cuban gen- eral, Lope .Recio. Thus it will be seén that the .Cubans are recognizing the humanities of war despite the murderous policies of their enemies: 5 “In Guairamo we secured $21,000 in Spanish gold, over 300 Mauser rifles, 125,- 000 rounds of ammunition, 500 machetes and a large supply of clothing and medi- cal stores. An &ctive campaign will be continuea by our forces while Weyler is fruitlessly attempting to catch Maceo."” Senor Quesada in conclusion said thata siege of Havana would begin if the insur- gents can send enough artillery, includ- | ing their dynamite guns, to that point. He does not know what action the United States will take with reference to the revo- lution, but thinks. that the President's message will define the administration’s: policy. p BRI WEYLER GOES FORWARD, Now About Three Leagues Southwest of San Cristobal. - HAVANA, Cusa, Dec. 1.—It is reported that General Weyler arrived to-day at Taco Taco, about three leagues southwest of San Cristobal. After a very.short rest the troops started on the ‘march.again, but their objective point ‘is not known. They met no rebels on the- way from San Cristobal. The forces commanded by Colonel Pavia | have bad sn encounter with: the rebels | under Lacret at the Santos. rasch, near | Bolondron, province of Matanzas: -Ac- cording to Colonel Pavia's report,: the | rebels were routed with loss of fourteen killed, including Jose Antonic Arguelles, Lacret’s adjutant. A Spanish heutenant and oue private were wounded. P LAST WARNING TO SPAIN, Belief That the President Will Soon Tssue a Hles<age. NEW YORK, N. Y., Dec. 1.—Aspecial to a morning paper from Washington says: A crisis in the affairs of Cuba is rapidly approaching, and there is every reason to beliéve that President Cleveland has already decided on a course.which | will startle the country almost as much as did his famous messaze on Venezuela, although the exact time for the announces | ment depends somewhat on future opera- tions in Cuba, By this action the President will not change his previous policy in °regard to Spain and Cuba in any regard, but will simply carry it out to its logical conclusion, which is a direct and open threat of active interventionh on'the part of tbe United States to secure peace in the island whether by the indepenidence of the patriots or by voluntary action on the part of Spain. From three different sources this even- ing the policy vartially agreed upon be- tween Eecretary Oiney and President Cleveland was learned, and the reports in each case tallied with “surprising unan-. imity. + A definite and somewhat startling an- | nouncement on the Cuban .guestion will | be made to Congress either in. the regular | annusl message or in a supplementary communication, as wasthe case in deal- ing with the Venezuelan question, Minister Depuy de Lome o! the Spanish Letation has been fully advised of the im- pending announcement, and he accepts | what is in effect an ultimatum, belieying that Spain will be able to prevent action on the part of the United States by the success of Weyler’'s operations in Cuba. The policy adopted is scarcely a matter of debate any longer and unless there should be some sudden "change in the island, through the success.- or failure of Weyler's campaign, the issue wiil soon be sharply drawn between this.country and Spain. 0 In his communication’ to Congress, | when it shall come, President -Cleve- | land will, in all probability, declare that duoring the last year since "he com- municated on the subject there has been furnished no ' evidencc of ‘the immediate termination of the war which has devastated Cuba and which interferes | 80 ‘seriously . with the commerce of - the United States. He will show that, on the one hand, the Cubans avoid a direct con: flict, and that, on the other, up to the present time the Spaniards have been utterly unable 1o quell the insurrection. As to “fric.m Possessions. ROME, Iravny, Dec. L.—In the Chamber of Deputies to-day the Merquis di Rudini declared toat the statement that Erythrea was to be transformed into a civil and commercial colony ot Italy was prema- ture, and that the final decision as to the Government’s course in regard to its Afri- can possession hed mnot béen reached.

DEBATES ON THE ESTIMATES. Admiral Yon Hollman Evokes Applause by Uusions to Herofvm, . BERLIN, GerMANy, Dec. L.—The Reich- stag to-day resumed the debate on the es- timates. B S5 . 5 Baron von Hollman, head of the navy, said that in order to replace the fleet the estimates of 32,000.000 marks should be provided annually in the budget. The, Government, however, he -declared, only asked for 20,000,000 marks annually. In the course of his address Admirak von Hoilman referred to the heroism of the sailors of the German ship Itlis, who went down with their ship off the Chinese coast during a storm, cheering for the Emperor, 2 The members vigorously applauded this portion of the admiral’s speech. Count von Posadowksy-Wehner, Minis- ter of the Imperial Treasury, stated that it was impossible to ignore the rights .of the federal states to a portion of the im- perial revenue and he expressed a hope that an agreement would be reached by the gavemmem and the chamber so that: the federal states would not be subjected to excessive demands. He aiso hoped, he said, that the redemption of the public deot would be pushed. Relative to the operation of the sugar- tax law Count’ von Posadowsky-Wehner would express no ovinion, saying he be- lieved the law had not yet been long enough in operation to render it advisable to do so. The subject of abolishing the bounties on sugar, bowever, was still be- ing considered by the Government. et 2l The Chicago Suicide.

It Is Urged That _Uncl'e‘ Sam S.‘A_nnli _Go Out of the Banking " ‘Business. . 8 INDIANAPOLIS, Ixp., Dec. 1.—A Na- tional commercial convention will be held. 1n this city early next year, probably Jan-: uary 12, for the purpose of suzgésting such legislation as may be necessary to place the currency system of t e country on.a sound and permanent busis. This.action -was the practical 6utcome of the conven- tion'called by the Indianapolis Board of Trade, which finished 1ts work to-day. The formal call for the general conven- tion will be issued in a few days by a sub- committee of [ndianapolis delegates: At 2:10 P. x. Justus C. Adams, president. of the Indianapolis Board of Trade, called ‘the conference to order, and Secretary ‘| Smith calied the rolf of cities. President | Adams then read an address, in which he ‘stated, in view of the recent election, the ‘people want a stuble currency,and with such an end in view the Board of Trade- called the conference. - 7 He hinted that the retirement of the greenbacks is a step in the right direction. President Adams said further: g “Within the last year the people of this country have shown that they are op- posed to & cheap and fluctuating doliar.of an uncertain value and that they are not | disposed to follow untried paths that lead | to business unrest or new departures in financial theories that would only end’in National dishonor and & depreciated cur- renty. ‘We must not take this over- whelming expression of the people, how- ever, as a final and complete settlement of the issues involved nor as an unques- tioned acceptance of our vresent mone- tary system, but rather as a protest’ against a step backward. Between thé lines of the returns of the recent election there is shown a pronounced public senti- [ ment favoring currency reform, with an evident. purpose on the part of the con- servative and reflective men to examine: into our National finances apd remoye, with the least possible delay, whatever weakness or defect that may appear. “Different views are entertained.as'to the method of precedure and details of plans in the matter of currency revision, but after our grievous. and costly expe- rience we are forced to the conclusion [ that the time has now:arrived when the Government must either discontinue the banking business with its expensive and. complicated system, or go into it ona broader, m03 comprehensive scale. The zame is not worth the candle. The burden is too heavy to be safely borne, and no individual, corporation or Government | quaniity of it, dying almost instantly. can conduct business on a safe and sound asis who or which bas demand notes for | millions of doliars in existence and circu- |. lation, which notes are liable in a - period of stringency and panic to be brought to the counter for redemption, and waen so. redeemed are reissued, thus acting as a standing menace to the Government re- serve and a continual threat to the trade and business of- the country, causing dis- turbance and - unsettled values of every character. “Politicians are proverbially timid, even to the verge of cowardice, and are often- ‘indisposed to consider economic questions or matters pf National policy until sup- ported by public sentiment, but whep that | sentiment is crystallized and given definite . shape Dy the commercisl bodies and busi ness men of the Nation it becomes a moral ferce and reorganized powér which ‘our. lawmakers will not ignore or refuse to heed. It would be safe to predict that our National Congress would receive the well- inatured, fully considered and practical recommendations of the active successful’|. men of affairs who are in touch frith the trade and commerce of the country as an authoritative declaration favoring a recon- struction of our financial metbods and system and give it the thought and atten- tion its importance demands.” 5 TUpon motion of Delegate Smalley of St.- Paul each commercial organization pres- ent was'allowed three votes. Ex-Governor’ Stannard of. Missouri was’ made perma- nent chairman. Secretary Smith of In- dianapolis was made permanent secretary. * Mr. Smalley offered 4 resolution -to the effoct that a call be issued inviting repre-- sentatives of commercial bodies of cities- of the United States of over 25,000 inhab- itants to attend a National convention to be held in Indianapolis in 1897 to discuss the financial question, to offer remedies to Congress or to advise the appointment of a commission to prepare proper reme- dies. Delegate Tarner of Indiana presented an ainendment to that portion of Mr. Smaliey’s resolution with reference to the representalion of the various cities, Mr. Tanner's amendment recommended a rep- resentation according to the population of 1890 of cities of 8000 and evr to be repre- sented, which would make a convention of about 1250.delecates. The amendments were accepted by Mr. Smalley, and it was referred to a sub-committee which was appointed to consider and report upon it. Attorney-General Miller and John R. Wilson, both of Indianapolis, addressed the conference at some length. - At the close of Mr. Wilson’s address, Mr. Smalley of St. Paul offered a resolu- tion calling a National convention. A difference arose over the method of repre- sentation, and the question was finally referred to a committee composed of M. E. Ingalls of Cincinnati, H. H. Hanna of Indianapolis, F. T. Roots of Connersville, 10,000, two delecates from cities of from 10,000 to 15,000; three delegates for cities of from 15,000 1o 20,000, four delezates for cities of from 25,000 to 50,000, five delegates for cities of from 50.000 to 100,000, six dele- gates for cities of 100,000 to- 200,000, seven delegates for cities of from 200,000 to 400, 000, eight delegates for cities of from 400,- 000 to 1,000,000, twenty delegates for cities of 1,000,000 or over. It was found that the hall could not be secured on January 5, and the date was left to a sib-committee. 1t will probably be fixed at January 12, . YOUAKG CANNON IS EGGED.
