If necessary. , Mil; HITT'S ltKMAUKS. The debate was opened by Mr. Ilitt. The resolutions, he said, hud been con sidered with great care by the commit tee In many ineelinKs. passing through several months and utter consultation with many eminent Jurists. It was the belief of Hie committee, that III the In terest of peace, In til elnlerest of the I tilled Stales, uml in the Interest of tlinse who were sti-UKstliiiK in Cuba, and with whom the committee sympa thized, tin- resolutions presented were II practical, conservative, anil effective mode of action. The I 'lilted Slates l-.oi eminent, he said, should not only lie prepared to protect the interests of American citizens, but to Intervene if necessary. All the resolutions hud been care fully considered so that they could not, they certainly ouiHit not, cause tiny trouble between the I'nlted States and any country that was not "seekine, to pld; trouble with us." That belligerency was a fact wus proved. not by newspaper reports alone, hut by the reports of 1'niteil States contuis In Culm. The wur in Cuba was not a retiiiidiiction of that which pre vails! fr.iiii iscs to 1S7S. It was a far arenter one. three times greater. It luid '(one 1111i.ll it hud swept from one end nf Hie Island to the other until to day tile Soanisli authority wus not. in fact, authorized over more than i.ne third. probably not one fourth of the 4I.IIIIU square miles of the surfuce of the island. , The Spanish minister at Wash ington hud made 11 statement on the tt.'d of I'Vluunry to the effect that ll'Y ikiii troops had been sent lo Cuba by Spain. Was not that war? fil'KIMl.t.A WAItKAIti:. Was that a police pulling down dis turbances'.' Iteccntly the cuplsin gen eral of Cuba had Issued two long proclamations which had been read with horror. It would not do, Mr. Ilitt said, to say that the struggle In Culm was jitlcrilla war merely. (lueiilla warfare was a great and terrible In strument in the genius of the Spanish lace, line bundled and lifty thousand of the li lit ML Soldiery of the vvorli hud murciied lino Spain 11 lid attempted to subdue a people' which could only re sist by guerilla warfare; 111,. the Spaniards destroyed that French army. Was not that, Alt'. Hilt asked, war? Should any Spaniard deny that It was? There wus not a Spaniard who was not proud of that history. Mr. Ilitt re called Hie fact that the belligerency of the southern confederacy had been recognized by Spain a month before the lirst battle of the war the battle of Hull Ittin. The government of the I 'nlt ed States should now, through Its state department, ask that the people of Cuba should have a government of their own choice. Wherever American In terests were imperilled, Mr. Ilitt 11c clared In conclusion, marines should be landed to protect them. The great arm of the republic, he exclaimed, ought In be ready always to follow Its people and protect their Interests, their prop city and their rights, anywhere in the world. (Applause on tile lloor unil in the galleries.) THty OPPOSITION. The debate on the opposite side of the question was opened by Mr. Turner IDcm., Cu.l. who commented 11 001, the fuel that the committee on foreign uf falrs had not seen lit to report the fads on which its recojmnendjtlons resled. There were no facts presented ami a pamphlet from the state depart ment contained only a dreary recoid of mutual outrage. Incendiarism, and assusslnul ion, "und yit," said he, "we tile usked lo declare that a slate of public war exists in the Island of Cuba." As to the recognition of the soul hern confederacy by Spain, Mr. Turner re culled the fnijt tint the people of the confederacy hi Id. nt the time, 11 region of country extending from the mouth of the Potomac to the Itlo itratole; nml that it had an army against which the combined legions of Caesar and the Phalanxes of Alexander would have been utterly unavailing (applause.) He wus amazed that nn effort wits made to do ill til Ir countrv what was done In liarccloua yesterday to appial to Hie mob spirit with tales of Span ish honor und atrocity. He reminded tile house that the Spanish government had made the amend honorable to the government f the I'nlted States for what had occurred yesterday in Spiiin and hud apologized for It. The Span iards. Mr. Turner said, might be a high blooded people, but they had within their breasts the spirit of ancient chiv alry. The stories told of Spanish out rages In Cuba were utterly Incredible. He did not believe In the UnsiH'Ukllble outrages said to huve bi-en perpetrated under lite orders of Ceneial Weyler during the last Insurrection In Cuba, besides, at that time, (lenernl Weyler was not In command, but was u sub ordinate olllcer. , At IMS p. m. the question was or dered, and on a vlvu voce vote the question of adopting the house reso lutiona wus agreed to, the few iHsment- Ing votes being drowned In the' chorus or "yea." The yeas and nays were (lien demanded, and the Cuban resolu tions Wile agreed to by a vote of L'i:! to 17. Those voting ill the negative were: Messrs.

This action, and especially the fact that it wus taken immediately ufter news of the affair readied the Spanish govern ment, without wulting for any sugges tion from tlMvl'nited States, will tend greatly to relieve the situation and pre vent a serious outcome of the mob's attack on our consulate.
