MADDOX democratic caucus plans party work WANT TORFCOGNIZE CUBA Bailey cf Texas. Took The Leah. Resolutions, Washington, Dae. 14.-The Caucus of democratic members of the house of representatives last i ight resuited in the sddoption of resolutions defining the party policy on the questions of Cuba, finance and bankruptcy. Out ol 125democratit members 101 were present despite the stormy weather. Representative Richard son, of Tennessee, was in the chair. Representative Bailey, of Texas took the initiative by presenting the following series of resolutions. “Resolved that it is the e sense of this caucus that the democratic nu mbers of the house of Repre sent fives ought to resist all efforts direct or indirect to retire the greenbacks and tn usury notes. Resolved, secend, That we are opposed to and will resist all at tempts to extend the priveleges of national backs, or to reduce the taxes which they now pay. Resolved, third, that we favor the early consideration and pass ing of the senate resolution recog nizing that a condition of war ex ists in the island of Cuba between the government of Spain and the Cuban people. “Resolved fourth, that we favor the early enactment of ? just and wise bankruptcy law. The first three features of the resolution*', on finance and Cuba were considered separately, the discussi.iii being vigorously and unanimously favorable. Mr. Bai ley made the main speech, urging that the democratic members should take tbuir positioners promptly against those financial movements n >w assuming formi dable ditnenei ns owing to the rec •nnendutions given to them by the preidesen |and secretary of the tre i«ury. He also spoke for a clear-cut position in favor the recognition of Cuban beligereicy, as embodied in the Morgan resolution which passed the senate during the extra gepgion. There was not a dissent ing v-'ice to Mr Bailey s proposi tions and the first three resolution were carried by ur.amnions vote the result being reciiVed with hearty cheers. The fourth sea ture of the reso lutions declaring fora just and wise bankruptcy law met with some opposition but finally pre vailed by a large majority. On motiom of Mr Maddox of Georgia arrangements were made for the usual congressional com mittee to conduct the congression al campaign of 1898. The com mittee is to consist of one mem ber from each state, territory and District of Columbia, and nine senators to be chosen by the sen ate democratic caucus. The caucus adjourned a |9 o'clock having been in session just an hour, and having accomplished its results with practical unanim ity 1 - LYNCHED AT RENDVILLE 0.

DECEM ER 15 1897 mobile murder AN AGED WOMAN BRAINED AND ROB ED THE WORK OF A FIEND Perpetrated in the City of . Bile. Mobile, Ata,, Dec. lb.--This morning a little girl going to the store of Mr?. Margaret Hogan, corner jj Clay and Congress streets to make a small purchase, found the store open and the lamps burn ing, but no one attending. Going into tl e rear room, she discovered Mrs. Hogan lying on tne floor dead, with her hands tied behind her back and a piece of braid wrapped tightly around her throat. Giving the alaim, an investiga tion followed which showed that the place had been rebbed of mon ey and some of the goods. The robbers had probably forced 'tie woman, who was sixty-five years cf age, to give up her small hoard which she kept in her room back of the store. Then they ttran. gled her with the braid, but find ing her slow in dytug, brained her with some blunt instrument. From the facts that the lamps were still burning and the woman fully dressed, it is thought that th? murder occurred some time last night, perhaps at an early i Lour in the evening. No noise wa« heard at any time and there is i no clew to the identity of the mur -1 derers. -« ■ —i:, PRI IE OLD STUFF Cargo Os Whisky Sunk Forty Years Agi To Be Raised. Parkville, Mo.

SANGUILLY HAS YIfLDED The Insurgeant Leader Offers His Services To The Spanish. Havana, Dec. 15—The Spanish forces under the command of General Pando, in the province of Puerto Prancipe, have been push ing the insurgent leader General Maximo «omez so closely that hr was obliged with about 200 men of his escort to seek refuge in the woods and mountains of Lai Delicias. During the recentengagemeut at Caiman, on the south coast the in suiizeant leader Collazo was wound vd. Today ten armed insurgents surrendered there. During a skirmish on the Rivei Seco, near Guineas this province, the wellknown insurgeant leader Pitirre was killed, together with a lieutenant and two privates. The insurgent Colonel Antonio Lopez Perez surrendered several days ago in the province of Santa Clara. It is announced semi-officiallj that General Sanguilly, the insur gent leader, has written to Mar shal Blanco, offering him his ser vices unconditionally. Advices from Madrid indicate that Deputy Amblard will be en trusted with the task of making efforts with the Cuban Junta when he r a aches New York. He is said to have the Spanish Ministers that lie counted upon the adherence of General Saguilly to the new order of things, and if it is true that the latter has offered his service to the Captain General the influence of Amblar at Madrid will be greatly increased . lie is said to have al ready received considerable sums of money to meet his expenses and, it is further stated, ihe Re formists and Autonomist hero will not definitely complete their union until his returned to Havana. The Autonom.c Cabin* t for Cuba will not be formed until the Reformist and Autonomists unite in one party and it is said that Amblard on his arrival in New York will offer to Manuel Rafael Angulo a member of the Cuban Revolutionary Junta a portfolio in the new Autonomis Cabinet io order to induce him to return to Cuba. The commissioners sent by Gen eral Pando t'> different parts of the island with instrections to ne gotiate with the insurgents for ihoir acceptance of the autono mous fonn of g ven.ment pro posed by Spain have not returned m a single case. Gineral Arolas, according to a dispatch from Manzanillo prov ince of Santiago de Cuba, has accidentally wounded himself wi h a revolver but his condition is not serious. Some of the richest Spaniard s of Cuba have he'd futher meet ings here at Cienfnegos and Sagua to consider the advisability of sending a p 'tition to Pn sisent McKinley asking for the estab lishment cf a United Sta'es Pro tectorate over Cuba if within six months the Spanish Governm int’s plans for the pacification of the island give no results. New York Dec. 13. —At the Cu ban Junta headquarters and from other sources here it was learned that Sanguilly's loyalty to the Cuban cause had been under sus picion for some time and that hie reported action in offering his services to General Blanco wus.by no means a surprise. Delegate Thornes Estrada Palma however said that he could hardly believe that Sanguilly had capitu lated but that he did not attach much importance,to the report even if true. General Sanguilly was in New York until about a week ago. Prescriptions a specialty at the R me Pharmacy.
