THE MORNIKG OKEGONIAN, SATURDAY, JUNE 21, FORPARTYHARMONY Pleas, at Republican Confer ence on Cuban Bill. SPEECHES FOR RECIPROCITY Eigrlit Senators Arjpic or Legislation at Tlila Scission Two Bect-0 Sngnr Men State Their Positions. . , i WASHINGTON', June 20. The -Hepubll-can Senators had another conference on the subject of Cuban reciprocity, and af ter three hours' discussion adjourned, aubject to the call of Chairman Allison, without action. Almost all the Republi can Senators who are in the city were present Eight or nine speeches were made In support of reciprocity and only two In opposition to that policy. This was In accord with a previous under standing' that as the beet-sugar Senators Jiad monopolized the attention of the con ference "Wednesday night, their oppon ents today should have the greater share of the time. The speeches in support of the reciprocity bill were made by Senators Foraker, Beveridge, Lodge, Hale, War ren, Aldrich, McComas and Hanna. Sen ator Piatt, of ..Connecticut, added a few "words to what he had said at -the Wed nesday meeting. The speeches in opposi tion to the proposed legislation were.made by Senators Burton and Burrows. The speeches for reciprocity were along the same general line and withbut exception were pleas for legislation and for party harmony. Snator Forak,er opened the proceedings -with an appeal to his party colleagues to get together in support of this measure, whioh had, ,he said, become a party ques tion, having been made so by the atti tude not only of the present Chief Magis trate, but by that of his honored prede cessor. He said with some appearance of feeling that men could not be with the party at one time and against it at an other, aqd maintain their prestige. He also spoke of the necessity of maintain ing the most cordial relations with Cuba. Senator .Beveridge dwelt on the grow ing Importance of American trade with the outside world, and said thfc present opportunity to extend our hold of the good will of the Cuban people should not be lost-' , Senato'r Lodge dwelt with especial em phasis on the importance of having Re publican Senators stand together at this critical period in the party's history. Much of our prestige and futurje National standing, he said, might depend on steps now taken, for all the world was watch ing with interest our treatment of the Cuban people. He declared that opposi tion would not suffice to prevent continued J presentation of this matter until success, was obtained, and he was quite positive that If reciprocity with Cuba was not se cured now. It would be at a later day. Senator Warren spoke briefly In the interest of party harmony. He thought all the resources of the Republican Senators should be exhausted to secure co-operation before taking final action. Senator McComas declared his adher ence to the Senate reciprocity bill, say ing he considered It In the Interest of the whole country to enact such legisla tion as was outlined In that measure. Senator Hale said it should be distinct ly understood that in supporting this measure he did not surrender his princi ples as a protectionist, and he was In clined, he said, to hesitate somewhat be fore accepting the modern day reciprocity idea, "but reciprocity with Cuba he re garded as entitled to somewhat different consideration from reciprocity with other countries, because of the obligation we had assumed toward that Island. He believed that the Cuban people would se cure the benefit of the proposed reciprocal relation with the country, and said he was willing to set Cuba up in housekeeping. Senator Aldrich spoke at some length. ?e dwelt with special emphasis on the ;cesslty, for' the partj's progress, of a solid front at this time with respect to this measure. He reiterated the state ment which had been made by the other speakers that the question was a party question, and pleaded with tne opposing Senators to recognize this fact and accept the situation. He ridiculed the Idea that the proposed reduction would Injure the beet-sugar Interests, saying that as suga now receives protection amounting to about 100 per cent on the cost price, the reduction proposed in the bill suggested by the Cuban committee still would have a protection amounting to SO per cent That he thought to be ample. He said the question of reduction was not one of today or tomorrow, and announced that the friends of the principle of reciprocity with Cuba would not content themselves until their efforts were crowned with suc cess. Senator Hanna spoke of the question of extending the proper aid to Cuba as a moral question, saying that our obliga tions to the Cuban people were such that we would not be true to ourselves as a Nation if we should fall to give them an encouraging hand at the beginning of th.elr national career. He referred to President McKInley's attitude on this sub ject and quoted the President's Buffalo speech as making It Imperative on this Government to enter Into proper recipro cal relations with Cuba. The meeting had almost concluded when Senator Burton, of Kansas, took the floor to make a brief but impassioned and eloquent speech in support and de fense of the attitude of -the beet-sugar Republicans. He took as his text cer tain remarks which had been made by Senator Piatt, of Connecticut, at the Wed nesday evening meeting, and by Senator Foraker at today's meeting. He spoke especially with reference to an intimation inat me oeet sugar Senators were not loyal to the party. He said that the press of the country had presented only one side of the question. His side, be said, stood for support of one of the most promising, as it was one of the most de serving of infant industries. The beet sugar interest was coming to the front with a rapidity and a promise to the fut ure such as had marked the hlstorv of few Interests, in this country, and he urged that thle Interest should have the pame protecting care which the Republi can party had given to other struggling industries. He said that it was not true that the beet sugar men were not willing to extend a helping hand to the people of -Cuba If they needed it, but he contended that there was no need for assistance to the people of that Island at this time Nor did he believe that If the contem plated legislation should be enacted the Cubans would secure the benefit Burton said Senator Piatt, of Connecti cut in defending the committee's action in striking out the House provision for the extension of our labor laws to Cuba had said that Cuban labor Is as well paid as farm lahor in Kansas or any part of the united States. Burton said that if this were true, the Cuban laborer jcertainly was not in need of alms from the people of the United States. He also urged that if the, plantation-owners- were able to pay Kansas prices, they could not be In des perate straits, as had been represented Nor. he added, could It be said that the Cuban Government was in position to ask assistance froin anyone, for when Gov ernor Wood surrendered the rolns of Gov ernment at Havana, there was JSOO.OOO In the Cuban treasury, and the government had an assured Income of 517.000,000. His conclusion way that as neither the gov ernment, the planters, nor the Cuban la borers had any need of the proposed as sistance, it was unfaif and unjust to ask the fanners of this country to sacrifice their own Interests ,for the purpose of granting an annuity of J5.000.000 or ?6,000, 000. Senator Burrows stfoke vers briefly, and his remarks were entirely In reply to Senator Hanna's reference to. Presi dent McKInley's Buffalo speech. Burrows produced a copy of that speech and Tead extracts from It for the purpose or show ing that the beet-sugar Senators are In accord with McKInley's position as out lined In that speech. He laid special em phasis on the portion of the Buffalo speech in which the President said that he would not advocate any step "that would remove the proper protection from American labor and American Industries. He also quoted the last annual message of President Roosevelt, saying that the beet-sugar men .were in accord with the President's position as then outlined. They claimed, he said, that they were acting in accord with strict Republican policy in advocating the protection of the beet-sugar interests. The conference adjourned to meet at the call of the chairman, and it is generally believed that another meeting will occur some time next wek. Disappointment In Cuba. NEW ,YORK. June 20. There Is a feel ing of great disappointment here, says a Havana dispatch to the Tribune, over the possibility that the Senate will not pass a Cuban reciprocity bill. Cubans have about given up all hope of relief from this source, and the people assume a gloomy view of the future economic conditions of the island. Their confidence In President ITS WANT OF EFFICIENCY lord beresford criticises the "British Admiralty. y.-:- Is He Declares vWc whole System Rotten andKeailM b Great Ex it, fcara'gancc. LONDON, June 20. During the discus sion of the Navy estimates In the House of Commons today Roar-Admiral Lord Charles Beresford. Conservative, scath ingly criticised the deficiencies of the Navy. He declared the whple Admiralty system was rotten and led to great ex travagance, and that there was a general want of efficiency in the Navy, on which depended the success of the empire. This was the Judgment of all tile commission ers of Inquiry, and had been proved a fact Every increase In the number of ships and every Improvement In them had been the Tcsult of outside agitation. As a result of such agitation, the British Med iterranean fleet was cow a fourth strong er than a year ago. It Is remarkable. Lord Beresford added, that both Army and Navy officers were compelled to threaten to resign In order to get things righted. Great Britain had only 20.000 naval reserves lnsttad of the requisite SO.000, and the engine-room de- pride the victor received the wreaths pre sented by a lovely hand. It was thus also at Wartburg, when they seized the harp and lyre and song in competition. Never before, so long as the history of German universities has been written, has any university received such an hyonor as is conferred today upon that of Bonn. In company with the beauty of Bonn and surrounded by ladles of princely rank, Her Majesty, the Empress, the first Prin cess of the land, has appeared at a stu dents' kommers. This unprecedented honor has been accorded to the city of Bonn and to the Borussla, a student corps. I hope and expect that all the young members of the Borussla corps upon whom the eye of the Empress has rested today have received an inspiration for the rest of their lives." r LORD CHARLES BERESFORD THE BLUFF SEA DOG WHO IS MAKING IT WARM FOR THE BRITISH NAVAL AUTHORITIES. THREE WEEKS MOURNING. After Coronatloa Festivities Kins Edward Will Go oa a Cruise. LONDON. June 20. The court will go Into mourning for three weeks for the King of Saxony, but the order of mourn ing will be suspended during the corona tion festivities. At the end of the festivities attending his coronation, which will last from Juno 23 to July 4, inclusive. King Edward will go on a cruise on one of the royal yachts, to recuperate from, the fatigues of the ceremonies. In an editorial article the Field defends King Edward from the accusations of unseemly devotion to racing. The paper considers it only right and proper that a monarch should associate himself with the amusements of his people, and that It is largely on this account that the King, like his mother before him. Is held In such high honor. The Field refers also to the Increasing vogue of polo as a social function, and to His Majesty's recent visit to Raleigh (to witness the second contest between tho American and British polo teams for the international cup) as the first time a reigning monarch has witnessed a polo match. The paper expresses Its belief that the American polo players have agree able recollections of their visit, and says the next British polo team visiting the United States will have difficulty in hold ing the cup. SATURDAY Roosevelt gives a last hope thit he will save them from absolute ruin by nego tiating a direct reciprocity treaty with President Palma. HEAD-ON COLLISION. Five Persons Killed and Thirty In jured In a Train Wrcelc. STAPLES, Minn., Juno 20. A head-on collision occurred at Lower Lake siding, two miles east of here, on the Northern Pacific, at 1:30 this morning between No. 7 passenger, west-bound, and No. S, cast-bound. Engineer Scott, of No. 7, took the siding, expecting No. S, whiph has the right of way, to pass. The Jat ter, believing everything clear, came along at a high rate of speed. The switch, how ever, had in some way been turned, and No. 8 dashed Into the waiting train. The wreck caught fire. The passengers formed a bucket brigade and kept the flames under control for a rime, but the work was given up and four coaches and three or four mall, express and baggage cars were burned. Scott's body has not yet been recovered, and It is thought that two or three mall clerks and baggagemen are not yet accounted for. . ST. PAUL, June 20.

All the injured have been taken to the Northern Pacific Hospital at Braln erd. It has been impossible as yet to ver ify the namofe. partments were thousands of men short As to armament, both the United States and France possessed superior guns. Blunders would continue until a separate board was appointed at the Admiralty and was "made responsible for the effi ciency of the fleot Treasury control was fatal to efficiency. As an Instance, the speaker pointed out the case of Sir Wil liam Vernon Harcourt who, when Chan cellor of the Exchequer, put his pen through the ammunition supplies after the guns had been ordered. Customs Union Not Practical. LONDON, June 20. In an Interview to day on the subject of the forthcoming colonial conference, Edmund Barton, Pre mier of Australia, said he considered that an .imperial custom? union was- not within the bounds of practical politics, though it might be possible many years hence. Free trade within the empire nbw would deprive the young communities of their main source of revenue, namely, the customs, and render It impossible to carry on their Internal government suc cessfully. Mutual tariff concessions within the empire stand on a more prac tical basis, and he hopes to see the dif ficulties in the way of such concessions removed. Limit of .England's Expansion. LONDON, June 20. The Fortnightly Re view. In an editorial, expresses Itself as 'apprehensively dubious concerning Great Britain s capacity for the self-imposed task of governing one-quarter of; the globe and one-third of its inhabitants. The paper parades the conjecture that the peace agreement at Pretoria marks the limit of Great Britain's expansion and that she has fought her last war. of con quest Russian Army Officers oa Trial. ST. PETERSBURG, June 20. A mili tary qourt at Oltava, South Russia, has begun the hearing of the charges against Captain Krewetsky and 36 other military officers and 27 recruits.

Anthony Shon derf, of New York, 72 years old, has at tempted to commit suicide here, says a Paris dispatch to the World, by throwing himself in front of a locomotive. Shon derf Is said to have lost heavily at Monte Carlo last week. Survival of Medieval Superstition. CHICAGO, June 29. While commence ment orators all over the country are re ferring to the present era as one In which science Is supreme, Professor Frederick Starr, of the University of Chicago, points a warning finger toward the prevalence of medieval superstition. "In enlightened America there are shrines whore idols of the saints are wor shiped as objects of supernatural power, while in such countries as Mexico the grossness of religious superstition is ab solutely amazing," said the professor tcr his class in anthropolog . "AH faiths that profess to cure disease by other thin natural methods are examples of the sur vival of the superstition of Middle Ages. In fact the stay of superstition at the present time seems to be gaining ground, and In spite of the talk that this is an age pf science, a. reactionary tendency to ward the beliefs of three centuries ago is actua-y evident" SPEECH OX RELIGION. Emperor' William's Oration at AIx-la-Chapellc. AIX-LA-CHAPELLE, Prussia. June 20. A striking speech on religion was deliv ered by Emperor William at the City Hall here yesterday, after his arrival from Bonn, accompanied by the Empress and the Crown Prince Frederick William. After observing that the city was the cradle of tho German Empire, Charle magne, on whom Rome conferred the dig nity of a Roman Caesar, having fixed the seal of government here, the Emperor said: "What power, however, his .personality was itbio to effect, namely, combining the office of a Roman Emperor with that of a Germanic King, was denied his suc cossors, who, striving to hold the world wide lmperlum, forgot the cause of Ger manla, so that little by little the German land and people decayed and the Roman Empire of Gorman nationality fell to pieces. Now, however, another cmnlrc has come to life, and its tasks are differ ent from those of ancient days. Con fined in their outward limits to the bor ders of their country, the Germans have settled down to the work which has fallen upon them. In these days, the young empire Is strengthening Itself and confi dence in It Is ever Increasing. The mighty German army constitutes the support of the peace of Europe. In con formity with the character of their race. the Germans have kept themselves with in bounds, far outside the world con cerned. In order to be wholly unfettered at home. "Our tongue Is passing beyond the seas. Every thought of science Is first turned to account by us. to be afterwards adopt ed by other nations. This is the world wide lmperlum after which Germanic genius strives. But it must not be for gotten that the empire was rooted in simplicity and fear of God. I look to all, priests and laymen, to help me hold relig ion among tho people. In order that the German name may preserve its health and strength. This applies equally to the two creeds. Catholic and Protestant Our two great creeds mu3t while living side by side, keep in view their one great aim to uphold and strengthen the fear of God and reverence for religion. Wheth er we are moderns, or whether we labor In this or that field, does not matter at all. He who does not found his life on religion Is a lost man. I rejoice that I have placed my whole empire, my peo ple and my army, as well as myself and my house, beneath the cross and under the protection of Him who said: 'Heav en and enrthv shall pass away, but my word shall not pass away.'." Emperor William concluded by the call ing for three cheers for Alx-la-Chapclle, Knlier at Krefcld. KREFELD. Prussia., June 20. Emperor William came to this city today" from Alx la Chappelle. He was welcomed by the Chief Burgher, and In his reply to an address delivered by this .officer. His MajoHty referred to the clty's Industrial development. He said Industry flourish ed only when a powerful scepter preserved the peace of the world, and that this he and his predecessors had striven their ut most to maintain. Earl of Clarendon III.
