Therefore, Resolved, By the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress assembled— FIRST—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 hereby recognizes the republic of Cuba as the true and lawful Government of that island. i v SECOND—That it is the duty of the United States to demand, and the Government of the United S:ates does hereby demand, that the Government of Spain at once relinquish its authority and government in the island of Cuba and withdraw its land and naval forces from Cuba and Cuban waters. THIRD—That the President of the United States be and he hereby is directed and empowered to use the entire land and naval forces of the United States, and to call into the actual service of the United States the militia of the several States to such extent as may be necessary to carry these resolutions into effect.

NEW YORK, April 16.—As soon as the Herald heard that the Bulletin, an evening paper of San Francisco, had announced that it was to have access to all Herald war news, it peremptorily knocked out the arrangement. The Bulletin was notified by wire that any such plan would be in direct violation of an agreement already per- fected with The Call whereby all Herald news goes directly to the morning paper. The Herald news service covering the war is the most complete ever organized, and it was a matter of surprise here when i.e Bul- letin was said to have announced itself as party to the scheme. The existence of a colored gentleman in the woodpile was sus- pected, and inquiry disclosed that the Bulletin had been advertising OPOPOOVOP9PP4 0000 % R R RERKEEFEEREERLHR @FFH XXX FFREXHKRFRFEHF Governor Budd Leads the Democrats, Bogus Gas Inspector Caught e R e S O} s | MALAGA, Spain, April 16. ito disperse, which in some | LEE SAYS WAR.

It is not regarded as strange that the Bulletin should have sought to create the impression that it was to print Herald war news, but there is some wonder in journalistic circles at its assurance in advertising to do that which there was no chance of its doing. The Bulletin will be obliged to take such Herald news as it may print from the columns of The Call, and it will thus be enabled to set forth in the afternoon that which has appeared in The Call in the morn- It remains for that paper now in military TWENTY-FIRST PAGE.
