Gen. Martinez de Cam pos will ask for reinforcements. Washington, April 11.—A bill recog nizing the belligerency of the Cuban revolutionists has been prepared In this city,, and will be introduced in congress when that body meets In December next. I« was drafted at the suggestion of certain representatives and senators who are In sympathy with the efforts of the Cubans to throw off tilio yoke of Spain, and the gentlemen will use their Influence to pass It through both houses. Such action on the part of the United Stares would, of course, (be of Immense service to the revolutionists. It would result in the free shipment of arms and men to the Island In support of the insurgents' cause, and would give them tllie moral and material support which they w> greatly desire. Spanish officials say that but for the ■hope tii»t i"ie United Staets may recog r.tze Cuba's belligerency, tile revolution would collapse within thirty days. JAPAN’S PRIVILEGES. She Fails to Get Smart Uonoy. CORK ISLAND IN VIEW, Ills Thought That the Talk U Tie lag Indulged In to Force tho Hand of the United State*—England Want* Canal Control. Some of the Rights Secured Under the Peace Treaty. London, April 19.—A Central News dispatch from Tokio gives additional details of the treaty of peace, the prin cipal features of which have already been published. The treaty secures to Japan entire freedom in the importa tion into China of steam englnesaand machinery for manufactures, and the same privileges are accorded Japan In the matter of Importing goods Into China. Tho latter also grants to Japan extra territorial righto, wherein, the matter of tariff, and tho dispensa tion of Justice Japan reserves every privilege. The Indemnity is payable In seven yearly Installments at 5 per cent. The payment of the obligation within .three years cancels the Interest. In addition to these provisions China engages not to punish the returned prisoners, nor to Inflict punishment upon the Chinese who may have furnished supplies to the Japanese army and ltnvy. China also binds herself to return Japanese prisoners unconditionally. The ex change of the ratification of the treaty will take place at Uhetoo not later than May 8. PEKIN NOT OPEN. Londrt.1, April 19.—The Tftne#' corres pondent In Pekin rays: "It I* under stood that China ha# conceded every thing required by Japan except making Pekin an open port. This She has stren uously resisted. Nothing is known here of any pence conditions likely to Involve other nation# in complications with Ja pan." The American missionaries are return ing to Kilsum, 300 miles to the north ward, as no further danger is feared. During the last few days the natives here are more Insulting to foreigners. RUSSIA'S SITUATION. Loudon, April 19—The Standard's cor respondent In St. Petersburg rtys: ■The newspapers continue to express discontent with fhe cession by China of mataltand territory to Japan, fcjt orty a feeble Idea Is given by them oi the ex tremely difficult position in which r.issla la placed. It la a fact that the g (.vest apprehension exists in potttlnl cine'** and it la evident that Russia cannot sub mit to the ratification of the treaty and Che present conditions, but it Is very dif ficult to eee what path ndH remain open should Japan and China persist In the ratification. There are excellent grounds for believing that Russia will ask for the cession of ocher Chinese mainland. If this be refused, consideration of her prestige will compel her to take decisive and prompt action.'' The Standard’s correspondent In Odes sa soya: “In the last few weeks <,000 soVUcts have sailed from this port to Vlndlvoe- tock and 6.000 more will embark soon. The cruisers are held ready to transport them, despite the conclusion of peace In the East." Wants to give bond.

WILDE AND PARKER IN COURT. London, April 19.—Osoar WIMe snd hi* friend Taylor were arraigned in the Bow street * to Item police court at noon today for further examination. WlUlo looked greatly fatigued and really ttl. His Mir was ruffled, and his general appearance Indicated cmreteaaness. Charles Parker was called to the stand and testified that Taylor, upon one oc casion, told Mm the* he had gone through the marriage ceremony with young Ma yor. he (Taylor) wearing woman's clothes. After the ceremony there was a wedding breakfast, followed by an orgte. the die- gust&tg details of which were fully re counted. , A detective testified that he bed seeth ed the rooms occupied by Taylor in Chap- pel afreet, where he had found checks payable to Uiavor and telegrams from Wilde amnginc and cancelling meetings. Other witnesses were called to the stand and gave simitar damaging testimony. At the ooaohurton of the examination Wflde and Toy'-or were folly committed for trial III the Central criminal court, Old Oedley. Application was made for boil, but It was refused. Wilde, in reply to the question whether he had anything to say, saM: "Not at present.” UMR.r~KHAN'S CONDITION'S.

The British expedition fa continuing Its march r.o Cbitral. \ Washington, April 19.—Further con firmation of London dispatches that Nicaragua had been Informed that her counter proposition waa not regarded as satisfactory by England waa re ceived here today. Nicaragua’s present plan, it Is under stood, Is to endeavor to reach a com* promise with Great Britain respecting the ultlmute settlement of the indem nity of $75,000 to Pro-consul Hatch. In pursuance of this purpose a special representative may be sent to London, who will likely he GeU. Barrios, who recently returned from England after an unsuccessful attempt to sct'tla the difficulties. It Is not denied that in the end Nica ragua will pay the Indemnity demand ed, Or offer to Great Britain In lieu of the <7.6.000 a part of her territory The report has reached here from Nicaragua that Mr. Gosling, the Bri tish minister to central America, de clared <n Guatemala a few months ago that “England especially wanted some Interest in Nicaragua with a View •to preventing the Yankees from con trolling absolutely the Nicaragua canal.” This statement, It la said, was made publicly and without’reserve. It was printed In the Guatemalan newspapers at the time and a high authority as serts that Minister Gosling has never ventured to deny it. The particular patch of territory at present available for this purpose would be the so-called “Corn Island,” the possibility of whose preferred cession by Nicaragua to Great Britain In lieu of a money In demnity has been more than suggested lately. These lands are situated In the Atlantic ocean about forty miles from Greytown. They woulTl be of great value to Englnd for a coaling and naval station and an effective British sentinel over the Nicaragua canal. It to said to be absolutely Impossible for Ni caragua to immediately comply with Great Britain's money demands. She has not 575,000 in her treasury, and her population of about two million people, two-thirds Indians, have no developed resources on which they could raise the amount. The proposition of a “paclflc block ade" of Nicaraguan ports to enforce the payment is quietly laughed at. Nicaragua, It Is eald, has no ships, and tue blockade would only hurt the commerce of Germany, France and other countries as well as the United States. There arc those who suggest that If Nicaragua should propose to cede Corn Island to Great Britain as un equivalent for the "smart money,” the Immediate payment of which to de manded. this proposal might he re garded as a shrewd move to force the hand of the United States. Nicaragua to not suffering for lack of diplomatic adroitness In her representatives, either abroad or at home. WANT OUU INTERFERENCE. Oorretstpondence On the Venezuela Boundary Dispute.

An hour after the Are began a rear wall of the building on Craven 3t»oot, a small thoroughfare, fell ind live firemen were buried in the debris. All were bdly Injured and one will prob- bly die.

Atlanta, April 19.—(Special.)—“The poiiticl situation ” said tho Hon. Stevo Clay, chairman of the Demo cratic state executive committee, who was in town today. “Well, a« I see It, we are soon to have a determined campaign on the financial question as the Issue. It is not likely that the di vision among the people on th » money question will result In bringing out a candidate against Governor Atkinson for he has made oue of the best gov ernors the state has ever had and has everything to reoommend him for a second term without opposition, but when the convention for the selection of delegate* to the national convention Is called then you wltf *6e the fight be gin. On one Hide It will be “free silver at 16 to 1,” abd on tho other “sound moiiey.” Tt might have been expected that the agitation on the financial question would be on tho wane In an off political year, but instead It sc cm.*, to bo on the Increase, and tho lines are being formed more closely every day, apparently In anticipation, as I have said, of a battle royal for control of the delegation to the national con vention. “When our state convention meets you will see resolutions introduced calling uuequlvocally for the free and unlimited coluago of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, with instructions to the delegation to stand by their colors to the last ditch and vote for no mau for president who does not subscribe to that faith. And against these resolu tions you are going to find a solid and determined opposition, men who will never surrender their convictions on this question, most of them at ht?art friendly to silver money, but advocat ing other means of securing It than those arbitrarily set forth by out and out free coinage men. What tho reeult will be we can only conjecture. But my prediction Is that here In Georgia, auyhow, we will lose sight of every thing else but the money question in tlie next campaign. “What we ought to do,” continued Chairman Clay, “Is to take this money auestlon homo to ourselves and study It. I am studying It to prepare ror me fight, and what I expect to do le to act by my own convictions In It. Every man ought to do tlu* same thing, wiri not do to question the motives or the Intelligence of those who disagree with us, ‘because I believe all want to see the country prosper. We all have tho public good at heart, and In adopt ing our line of policy we ought not to allow any sort of prejudice to enter into the decision.” MEETING THE CUT RATE.
