General Campos' Speech.
General Campos rnado an address to
tho assembly, soying in part:
“To judge correctly of tho course of
recent events in tho island, wo need
more data than aro known at present
to the public. There were times when
tho public opinion seemed to be that I
did not wish to subdue tho enemy. At
first sight thero may liave appeared to
bo somo foundation for such an opin
ion. But I nni inspired with tho
knowledge that I have conscientiously
done my duty, both during the civil
war in .Spain and during tho last revo
lution in Cuba.
“I have beon unfortunate in many
things, but I have not boon sustained
in my command. Whon I camo to
Havana from Alatunzss I sought to
avoid publio appearanco, but all saw
the reception acoordod me, which I
hnd not requested, becauso I am an
enemy of public demonstrations.
Gen. Weylcr has been appointed to
succeed Gen. Campos, Gen. Sonrez is
second in command. This is tho offi
cial information received from Madrid.
Gen. Weyler will aail from Barcelona^,
for Havana next Saturday, tho 25th.
He will unnoubtedly deal severely
with the insurgents and their sympa
thizers and a feeling of terror exists
among the latter.

vance in goods will average .43 per

tioned among tho manufacturers.
Noted Cartoonist Dead.
A special from Amsterdam, N. Y.,
Bays: Bernhard Gillam, the noted car
tooniat of Judge, died Sunday at tho
home of his father-in-law, ex-Senator
James Arkell, of Canojaharie. His
death was the result of an attack of
typhoid fever.
Tnr. nousH.
There was an interesting episode in
tho house Thursday, inspired by Mr.
Grow, republican, Pennsylvania, who
declaaed that tho Now York chamber
of oommeroe in a pamphlet printed by
that body and widely circulated bad
cast reflections upon the good faith of
tho house. Hu sent to tho olerk's desk
and had read tho oxtraot from the
pamphlot which follows:
“Then came tho Alabama claims and
tho fisheries dispute, the first lieiug
decided in our favor aud tho lnfter
ngninat us, each side accepting tho de
cision and paying tho nwnrd like busi
ness mon. Then camo tho seizure of
Canadian sealing vosaols by tho United
States in Behring sen, whioh was arbi
trated and about $400,000 awarded to
tho owuera of tho seized vessels, which
had not been paid, owing to tho failuro
of congress to make an appropriation
therefor and which wo are in honor
bound to Bottle without further delay.”
This passage having beon road, Air.
Grow demanded to bo allowed to speak
upon it, aa a question of privilrgo, and
waa proceeding to apeak when Air.
Crisp rnado tho point that tho pnm*
phlet presented no question of privi
lege.
Air. Grow contended that sinco re
flections upon members of the house
were questions of privilege, one upon
tho whole hotiso was much mere n
question of privilege. This Air. Crisp
combatted, but Air. Grow continued to
speak and said tlmt ho would make it a
question of pers unit privilege.
“The hoard of arbitration did not
award a dollar of damages,” Air. Grow
declared.
“If that had been done, it would bo
dishonest not to pay it aud it is a re
flection on tho bouso to say that such
an award was made and not pnid.”
Hero the speaker ruled that no ques
tion of privilege was presented,where
upon ATr. Grow took Ins Heat, Haying:
"Well, I am satisfied.”
Tho house resumed tho consideration
of tho pension bill and an order was
adopted thnt goueral debate bo olesod
during tho day aud tho bill bo taken
up by paragraphs Friday under tho
flvo-minuto rule.
After a debate oontinuod almost nn-
iuterrnpte lly over fivedays the general
pension appropriation bill for tho year
endiug Juno 80, 1897, was passed by
the house Friday afternoon,which then
adjourned until Alonday. Tho day’s
debate was comluotod under the five-
minute rule, the bill being rend by
parngrnphs for amendment. None that
was material was adopted, Mr. Bartlett,
democrat, of New York, enforcing his
nnnonuced policy of opposition to
further extension of pension legisla
tion by raising points of order against
them. By the same device ho suc
ceeding in having stricken out of tho
bill tho provision reported by tho
committee thut “during tho flBcn| year
it shall bo necessary for a widow, in
establishing her claim to a pension
under tho provisions of tho not of
1890, to prove thnt she ia without other
means of support than herdBily labor;
provided, that boforo sho shall bo en
titled to a pension under tho provis
ions of said law sho shall prove that
her not income does not exceed $500
measure go to tho calendar for oonsid-
alion ns tho pooplo did not beliovo in
this undemocratic prnotico and wanted
it stepped. Tho request was ngreod to.
The Cuban question came up briefly
when Air. Call offered a resolution di
recting tho secretary of stnto to send
to congress all dispntohcB from United
StnteB consuls in Culm concerning tho
present war.
Air. Ctillom, republican, Illinois,
presented n resolution which was
agreed to, requesting the Blnto depart
ment for information ns to whether
naturalized United Slates citizoUB of
Armenians birth were allowed to viait
Turkey ; whether their families living
in Turkey were allowed to depart for
tho United States, uud whether Ameri
cans living in Turkey had tho same
riglits as were accorded to citizens of
Grent Britain, Germany, Franoo aud
Turkey.
Air. Sewell, republican, offered a
resolution in regard to tho policy of
tho United States on tho Mouroo doo-
trine.
Thero was some discussion of tho
Call resolution. Air. Frye pointed out
that the resolution “directed” tho sec
retary, with tho usual proviso thnt the
information was to bo given if in ac
cordance with publio iutercst. Mr.
Call insisted that it should bo for tho
senato to determine wlmt it wanted.
Mr. Sherman said such requests
should not bo made at a time when Hie
uprising oxetended all through the
island of of Cuba. It might prove a
serious embarrassment to our oousuls
to lmvo their official advices made pub
lio. It might possibly subject them
to prosecution by tho Spanish or tho
insurgents in tho looality of tlio con
suls.
Air. Call gavo liotico that he would
move at nn early day for tlio discharge
of tlio committee on foroigu relations
from further consideration of tho res
olution for tho recognition of the Cu
bans uh belligerents. Ho would do
this, ho said, in order to bring the
senate to a direct vote on tho question
without further dolay.
Air. Call consented that hiH resolu
tion, calling for information, go over
for the present.
Air. Halo then addressed the senate
on his bill authorizing tho poslmast
general to contract with tho Pacific
Cub e Company for transmission of
government messngeB botwoon the
United States and Hawaii.
Mr. Allen, populist, Nebraska, fa
vored a cable to Hawaii, but opposed
tho present bill on tho ground that lio
feared that tho present nrraugemout
proposed would lead to disagreeable
complications.

tiy fifty days tho passago of a similar
bill in either of tho last two previous
oongressos.
Among tho miscellaneous business
transacted was the passago of a joint
resolution providing for tho distribu

records of tho rebellion.
A mosBRgo was received from tho
president asking prompt legislation to
enablo tho attorney general to prose
cute litigation in rcforouce to tho
granting of patents to lands lying

Tho couse of Cuban indepondenco
was tho subject of Chaplain Condon’s
prayer at tlio beginning of tho session
and his invocation that this govern
ment would do what it could to aid ill
securing liberty to tlio Cubans was
followed by n wave of applause, prob
ably tho first timo that such a demon
stration over followed a prayer in tho
house.
Whon tho home met Alonday, Air.

of a bill extending tho time in which

to lie dangerous to its peace or safety
by or through foroo, purchase, cession
occupation, pledge, colonization, pro*
toctorato or by control of tho enso
ment in canal or any other moans of
transit across tho American isthmUB,
whether on unfounded protonsion o
right in cases of alleged boundary dis

unfriendly disposition toward tho
Unitod States and as an interposition
which would bo impossible in any

Judge Snodgrass, who was in *tho
ebttrfrjfooirj, mndo nn affidavit in whioh
he made tho first statement ho has yet
mado with reference to the opisode in
which ho shot John R. Beasley. In
his affidavit tho chief justice ssys:
The meotiug between the pirosecu-
tor aud affiant wns purely accidental.
Whon they did meet defendant called
prosecutor's attention to a recent li
belous publication about defendant,
which the prosecutor hail made, and
denounoed as false,as ho lmd tho right
to do. Hot words pnssol between the
defendant and the proseoutor, and a
difficulty ensued, in tho course of
which tho prosecutor made a demon
stration, as affiant honestly behoved,
to draw a woapjon with which to kill
affiant or do him great bodily harm,
and affiant honestly believed tlmt ho
did intend to kill him or do him great
bodily injury.
“Affiant belioved ho was armed and
in the act of drawing his weapon, and
upon such boliof, honestly entertained
from tho conduct and demeanor of tho
prosocutor, affiant drew liis weapon
and lirod two shots, one ol which took
effeot in the arm of the prosecutor.
As soon us affiant discovered that ho
was probably in no fnrtlior daugor
from tho pirosoeutor ho immediately
ceasod to fire, and did not fire another
shot."
After hoaring tho affidavit Judge
Moon stated tlmt ho could not, under
tho rulcB of tho court, consent to a
poBtpioncniont for longer than throe or
four days, becauso ho would call tho
oivil docket Alonday or Tuesday, and
shat he would not consent to call up

missed tho juries and wound up) the
criminal business of tho term.
Ho thou ordered a continuance until
next torm. This continuance carried
with it tlio case for carrying oonccnlod
weapons, both cnees going over to
next term. Judge Snodgrass wns
very anxious for trial, but eouhl not
safely havo it until he had scoured tho
testimony of witnesses now in New
