Thoroughly Discussed at the

Several Others Fatally In-

lSIauche Lamont.
Washington, May 21. The cabinet
meeting today was interesting because
the principal subject under discussion
was our relations toward Cuba.
Tbe action of the senate yesterday
in passing the Morgan joint resolution
declaring a state ot war exists in Cuba
was regarded as a movement that
threatened, if carried out to the end,
to interfere seriously with the efforts
of the executive branch of the govern
ment to accomplish something sub
stantial for the Cubans.
The details of the plan President Mc-
Kinley has in mind have not yet been
disclosed, and in fact it may be said
they are subject to arrangement upon
the basis of the latest official informa
tion received from Cuba, probably
from Mr. Calhoun, but it was clearly
manifested in the cabinet meeting to
day that the president had made up
his mind to another forward step, and
while up to this time he has, as he
promised in the beginning of his ad
ministration, confined his efforts large
ly to securing absolute protection for
American citizens in Cuba, he has now
come to the determination to use his
powers to stop bloodshed in the island
as far as this can be done without in
volving the United States in war.
There was some talk respecting the
application of relief measurec in favor
of American citizens-in Cuba. It was
decided that the delay of the informal
signature of the resolution would not
necessarily prevent the immediate ap
plication of some money to feeding the
people represented as in great distress,
as drafts cannot be received before
formalities are completed and the reso
lution becomes a law.

GASOLINE UPON THB FLAMES.
A St. Lonl) Woman's Carelessness Ceased
" - - " ' a fltalnnflTlKt." .
St. Louis, May 21. Mrs. AdaMohr,
i
33 years of age, and baby Mohr," 18
months old, burned to a crisp and their
bodies taken to the morgue. Hugo
Howard, 15 months old, died after re
moval to the hospital. Mrs. Bessie
Howard, 28 years old, William Howard,
5 years old, were probably fatally
burned, and are expectol to die at the
hospital. Max. Gumpert and Henry
! Surman, painfully burned.
Those horrors constitute the sum
total, aside from property damage,
which resulted from a gasoline explo-
sion in tbe Upper rooms of 2341 Menard
street, occupied by Gustav Mohr, last
night. The kitchen in the rear of the
second story of the house was trans
formed into a roaring, fierv furnace in
a flash. In this furnace- were confined
a helpless mother, her two babies and
the 15-months-old tot of a neighbor.
The mother perished in torturing
agony. One of the little ones was
sacrificed to the raging fire. For her
desperate effort to save her baby's life,
another mother will probably sacrifice
her own on tbe alter of paternal affec
tion.
Mrs. Mohr, in whose kitchen the ex
plosion occurred, in order to make the
fire in tbe cook stove burn faster,
poured gasoline over the wood. The
blaze in the stove ignited the can of
gasoline and an explosion followed.
The burning oil was thrown in all di
rections, eneveloping.Mrs. Mohr and
the children. Mrs. Howard, who was
also cooking supper in her house heard
the cries of the children, and, running
out on the porch, caught sight of the
flames. She darted into the burning
kitchen and began groping for her
boy. She was dragged from the room
by Max Gumpert.

UF.SIANDS OJf SPAIN.
Venezuelan, Mexican and Chinese to Be
Protected.
New, York, May 24. A dispatch to
the Journal from Havana says:
In a demand recently made upon
Spain through the Venezuelan consul,
President Crespo's government insists
that citizens of that republic -residing
in Cuba shall, in case of arrest upon
political charges, be accorded equal
privileges with citizens of the United
States here, including exemption from
trial by military tribunals and assur
ances of a speedy judgment by civil
courts. Venezuela claims this right
under the favored-nation clause in her
own treaty with Spain, and the point
has been allowed.
Now Mexico is understood to be
pressing Madrid and Havana authori
ties to have her citizens here accorded
the same privileges. One Trujilio, a
Venezuelan, recently arrested as a
political suspoct, was released yester
day at the demand of Consul Punango,
on condition that he leave Spanish
territory.
China's Havana representative has
received instructions from home that
in the future the lives and proDerty of
Chinese residents in Cuba must be re
spected, otherwise China may concede
belligerent rights to Spain's enemies
in the Philippines.
Private advices from Caracas indi
cate that President Crespo stands ready
to follow suit in case the Washing-ton
government should finally recognize
the belligerent rights of the Cubans.
Indeed, it was whispered here tonight
that a vessel was formally cleared from
Maracaibo some days ago for the rebel
port of Banes in Eastern Cuba, loaded
with arms and ammunition for Cahxto
Garcia's army.

the opening debate and there probably
will be no effort from the democratic
Bide of the chamber to prevent taking
up the schedules immediately after
Aldriche's preliminary statement is
concluded. The democrats express the
hope that a disagreement will develop
among the republicans. .
At tne conclusion oi tne caucus,
Senator Gorman gave out the follow
ing statement concerning it: ,
a. conierence ot democratic sena
tors was held today, and it was unani
mously agreed by them, that notwith
standing the delay in furnishing the
competitive statements, which would
enable them intelligently to consider
the bill, there would be no opposition to
immediately proceed with the consider
ation of the same on Tuesday, as they
recognize the business interests of the
country require as speedy a disposition
of the question as ia consistent with an
intelligent consideration of tne meas
ure. "They are further unanimously of
the opinion that the excessive increas
es in rates on imported articles pro
vided for by Dingley's bill, and as re
ported to the senate, should be antag
onized only to the extent of exposing
their enormities. Recognizing, how
ever, that the republican party is con
mitted to these increases, the demo
crats will be content with only a tair
discussion upon these propositions.
"The democrats were further unani
mously of the opinion that they would
oppose the increased tax on beer, to
bacco, cigars and other items embraced
in the Internal revenue schedules.
Neither party was committed to such
increases, and there is no govern
men talv necessity for such increased

ARRAKGINO FOR PEACE.
Graeco-Turkish Trouble In the Hands of
Diplomats.
London, May 22. The Graeco-Turk-
ish trouble has now fairly entered
upon its diplomatic bargaining stage,
and the negotiations are expected to
last for eome tine. Many important
differences have to be settled, and. the
sultan of Turkey may be counted upon
to drag the affair along as much as pos
sible, with a view of bringing out the
latent jealousies of the powers. His
prompt compliance with the czar's re
quest to ar-ange an armistice is not
attributed entirely to bis desire to
please the czar, but it is looked upon
as a stroke of 'diplomacy intended to
excite the resentment of some other
power, and thus weaken the concert.
Thus far everything ten?s to show
that the powers remain in entire agree
ment on the question. A European
conference is discussed, but it is not
thought likely it will take place until
the preliminaries of peace are ar
ranged. Then the ambassadors . at
Constantinople, with the delegates of
Turkey and Greece, will meet to act
upon the treaty of peace.
There is a strong feeling for interna
tional control of Greek finances, with
out which the payment of the in
demnity to Turkey and the interest on
the Greek debt is declared to be impos
sible. ; The Greeks insist that, n an
indemnity be imposed upon them, there
will be a general collapse, and serious
internal trouble will occur. They es
timate the damage done to . Thessaly
at 2-5,000,000 drachmas, and another
10,000,000 drachmas would be needed
to supply the peasants with food and
tools. Moreover, they add, the reve
nue will be greatly reduced, owing to
the immense damage to cultivation
throughout the country, due to the
absence of thousands of workers.
The popular feeling at Athens
against tbe royal family of Greece does
not diminish. The stories of the "ex
cessive prudenoe". of Crown Prinoe
Constantino at the front have done
much to weaken the dynasty.
BATES MAY Bit TOO HIGH.
Fear Expressed That the Tariff Bill Will
Besult in Democratic Victory.
Washington, May 22. There is
considerable fear expressed in some
circles that the tariff bill will result ia
democratic victory, because of the dis-
atisfaction with tbe schedules. On
this account -soma of the most con
servative republicans are cautioning
those who are clamoring for higher
duties to be more moderate in their de
mands. This admonition has been dU
rec ted' especially at those who are In
sisting upon nigner amies ior wooi.
Tbe troublo with the wool men is
that they want protection of more than
50 per cent. When compensatory
duties are levied on . manufactured
goods to make up for tho duty on raw
wool, the price of woolens and woolen
goods get so high that the people who
use them will not support tho party
that imposes duties. This is where

Approved by the President.
Washington, M?y 24. The resolu
tion appropriating $50,000 for the re
lief of American citizens in Cuba
reached tbe White House at half past
12 o'clock today, after being signed in
both houses while they were in open
session. The president signed tbe
resolution immediately. He will at I
once consult with tbe senate depart
ment respecting the adoption of meas
ures of relief in addition to thope taken
last week, when Consul-General Lee
was authorized to draw upon the state
department for $10,000 for procurement
of immediate supplies.
REPUBLICANS IN CAUCUS.
Allison . Explains the Sugar
Schedule to
the Senators.
Washington, May 24. Immed
lately after the, adjournment of the
senate today, the republican senators
wect into caucus. Allison . said the
caucus was. called on the request of
several senators, and some of them
who signed the call stated they wanted
to know something about the plan of
procedure for consideration of the tariff
bill.
Aldrich, who reported the bill, took
the floor, but had not. proceeded far
when some ono asked him for an ex
planation of the sugar schedule. Al
drich went into quite an elaborate ex
planation of the schedule, presenting
the figures of the present law, the
Dingley bill and the senate amend
ment. He said the senate amendments
were less advantageous to sugar re
fineries than tbe Dingley bill or the
present law.
The Beply of Greece.
Athens,. May 24. The Greek gov
ernment, as a reply to the notification
by Edhem Pasha, commander of the
Turkish army in Thessaly, that he is
empowered to negotiate terms of peace
with Greece direct, has Informed the
ministers ot the powers here that, as
Greece has already confldeJ her inter
ests to the powers, there is no reason
why she should negotiate directly with
Turkey
