    THE SCRANTON TT.IBUNE-FRlDAY MORNING. DECEMBER 11, 1890.
SENATOR CULLOM'S
PLEA FOR CUBA
An Earnest Appeal In (be Interest of
Humanity.
SAYS THAT CUBA IS LOST TO SPAIN
A Precedent Not Necessary in the
Present Casc--Sptiiu the Robber
Nation of Todny as in the Vast.
The Blot I'pou the Went Indie a
Menace to the I'nited States.
Washington. Pec. 10. The Independ
ence of Cuba and the recognition of the
InaurKi'iits us a regularly organized
government had two advocates in tne
senate today in the persons of Sena
tors Oullom, of Illinois, and Call, of
Florida.
Mr. Cullom prefaced his speech with
the Introduction of a Joint resolution
declaring that "the extinction of Span-
SltELBT M. CULLOM. .P C3
lsh title, and the termination of Span
ish control in the Islands at the Rate
way of the gulf of Mexico are neces
sary to the welfare of those Islunds
and the people of the United States.
Mr. Cullom passed In rapid review
the prominent facts In Spanlsn history
for the last four or five centuries, con
tinuing suid:
I protest that a people with such a
hlftorv and such an education can have
no just claim to a purtielisillon In the con
trol of any territorial possession on this
hemisphere. There may be no warrant
In International law for any Interference
between a government and Its subjects,
provided that government belongs to the
family of nations or is recognized as one
of the powers of the earth. Still, does not
the heart of humanity beat in sympathy
with the poor souls apparently forgotten
by the .Master and left to bear the burdens
of cruel and relentless oppression? Is
there no way, no light, no hope'.' Must
tli brutality of might alone detine the of
fense and mete out the penalty, with no
human power to whom Intercession may
be made? Oh. Spain! oh, Spain, when
shall thy day be fullllled. Was there no
loyal Spaniard who would and could ami I
all these centuries stay the hand of death
or raise the sword of justice while there,
was time to save. Spain continues to be
what she always has been a robber na
tion. I speak now of the nation ami not
of her people. Some of the best and mi
ldest names of the ages come to us from
Spain, where, unhappily, too many of
them met their sad and melancholy fates.
It we wait for precedent we shall wait
forever. If a precedent is needed we shall
make one. The present situation cannot
continue. This war of extermination must
slop.
Cl'BA IA1ST TO SI'AI.V.
Cuba today Is lost to Spain. The public
proclamation of. Spanish defeat may i:ot
have been olllclally and definitely an
nounced, but In truth and fact the sub
mission of Cuba will never again be yield,
eel as of old. The blood on her people spilled
upon her soil will yield a growth of lad.'.
Jiendcnt citizenship consecrated to liberty.
This age is not an uge of retrogression.
The world today Is not wedded to bar
barism in order to perpetuate tyranny or
relieve tottering dynasties. This country
will never consent to the transformation
of Cuba Into a slave pen for the holding
in servitude of the ruptured patriots and
Insurgents who are lighting fur the dear
est rights of men. We will not permit that
island, a land which has the brightest
possibilities for a people of Intelligence
und enterprise, to be made the abiding
place of death and destruction. She lies
too near our land of freedom to remain the
military prison of the most cruel and un
relenting polity on earth. I believe tt to
tie the duly of the I'nited States to use the
great power attaching to the nation to
declare and to maintain as u prerogative
01 rignt, ucionging generally to republi
canism and specifically to this republic
that no chnrnel house of ruin shall lie
continued In the West Indian waters,
where waves break at our very front gate,
nny longer than the time It shall require
to break It up. And if the duty of sup
prrssing this damning Idot, erasing It for.
ever from sight shall fall alone upon the
United States, so be It.
Have we fallen so low as to have for
gotten the sacrilloes which men of genius
and character jind honor made In behalf
of this country In its day of trouble? Have
we forgotten and enshrouded the glorious
memory of Ltifuyctte? Have we turned
to the wall the pictures of Pulaski, cf
Steuben, of IleKalb and others long since
in glory? These men cast their lives and
their fortunes at our feet that we might
succeed. Hut we shall not stand alone
In the warfare which may follow In behalf
of common humanity. Nation after na
tion will make Joint cause with us In such
a struggle and when we have succeeded
and shall have made Into law the princi
ple, and mai') Into history the fact, every
other country worth naming will regret
Its mistake in not participating In the hu
mane work.
EFFORT CANNOT FAIL.
The effort cannot fall. We shall not
wage any warfare for the acquisition of
territory for ourselves. We shall not
claim Cuba as a reward for saving her
from the slaughter, but we will not sea
that fair Island turned again to the mer
cies of wild beasts and vultures of war
whose only stimulus Is gain. Cuba llbre
free Cuba Is the reward, and what a
glorious reward will that be. If other
means fall we may consider the propriety
of a fair purchase of Cuba. It Is not that
we want the territory, but we mean thnt
the trouble shall meet a Just settlement
and conclusion. Let the end come nml
come quickly. Let the bloodshed cease
ana let freedom and humanity be glorified.
Mr. Call, who followed Mr. Cullom
contented himself with a brief dlscus
Blve statement. The bill to restrict 1m-
migration was taken up as the unfin
ished business a motion by Mr. Gibson,
of Maryland, to postpone Its considera
tion till the first Monday in January
having been defeated by a vote of 13
to 37.
Various amendments to the text of
the bill were offered or suggested, but
no action was taken on any of them, al
though they were discussed a couple of
nours, and at 3.55 p. m., the senate ad
journed until Monday.
DISCUSSION IN THE HOUSE.
The house today Indulged In Its first
political discussion, sarcastic and hu
morous In Its nature. It was provoked
by the consideration of a bill amending
the law prohibiting alien ownership of
lands in the territories so as to permit
aliens to acquire possession under fore.
closure of mortgage and hold the land
for ten years, which period they must
dispose of It. Mr. Hepburn (Hepubli
can, Iowa), asked by what right a
delegate from the territories, sought to
change a law in accordance with the
platform the Inhabitants had approved
by their votes at the last election. A
breezy discussion ensued In which the
ethics of Populism were considered.
taking a wide range, and so conducted
as to afford considerable amusement to
the members. The territorial delegates
urged the passage of the bill as a mat
ter of Justice to their people, who were
now rf'.'privrd of the power to receive
Investments of forelsn capital, but the
house 0 to 7 refused to pass the
bill to a third reading.
Under call of committees bills were
passed prohibiting the sale of liquor In
the capitol buildint, and protecting the
rlR'nU of dinmatic authors and muskul
composers in their productions.
RAILWAY DISCRIMINATION.
Small Manufacturers and Producers
Are at n Disadvantage.
Harrlsburg. Pa., Dec. 10. From a re
port Just sent out by Major I. 15. Iirown,
of the State Hallway bureau, It is learn
ed that the most favorable conditions
with respect to the convenience of trav
eler and shipper are found here In our
own stute. In the United States there
were In ISM, 20 locomotives per 100
miles of road, while during the Fame
year In Pennsylvania there were 41 lo
comotives per 100 miles of road. In the
I'nited Stutes there were 19 passenger
and 6WS frelcht cars per 100 miks of
rmd. and In Pennsylvania ther r.re ?5
passenger and 1.T7S freight cars In ser
vice per 100 miles of road. While there
has been a falling off in the facilities
for frelsht shipment In the United
States, there has been a steady Increaw
In this state where in 1894 there veto
309,397 freight tars; in 1S95. KSK.fiWJ,
and during the year covered by this re
port 336,1171 : in Pennsylvania in IM'4
there were 6.G70 passengers cars in ser
vice; In 1S95, 6,785, and the past
year, 6.7.S2.
Major Hrnwn deprecates the baneful
results which How from the growing
use of shippers cars, results which aie
not alone prejudicial to the interests
of the railway stockholders. Ho says:
If there be such a thing as "the interests
of the favored few to the Injury of the
masses," It probably exists In an Inten
sified form by a manufacturer or producer
having his own cars in which to Fhip his
productions to market. He is enabled to
put his productions in the market rapidly
and realise quickly from any advance
ment of prices, while his less fortunate
competitor who has to depend upon such
facilities as the railways furnish him, be.
Ing subject possibly at times to the ca
price of the local representative of the
companv, as well as to the Inability of the
company to furnish him either the num
ber of cars desired or at the time the cars
may he wanted. No student can pasi,
from o study of this feature of the railway
problem without being convinced that the
use of shippers cars In the transportation
of commodities furnishes the most proline
source of discrimination that confronts
those roncerned In securing equitable fa.
clllties In transportation.

MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review.
New York. Dec. 10. Business at the
Stock Exchange was quiet, th8 transac
tions footing up only 117.0U0 shares. Dur
ing the early trading the market was
ehuracterlztd by strength. The advan"e
In prices, while general, was. confined to
nartow limits. In the afternoon trading
th? market developed weakness on the
fears of un aggressive action by the
United States senate on the Cuban ques
tion and un advance In the posted rates
or sterling. ChicuHO Qua fell 14. The An
thruciters were weaker for Heading and
Jersey Central. The Grangers were firm
early In the day, the poor statement of
the St. Paul for the tlrst week of Decem
ber falling to exert any lnuence. Near the
close, however, these issues were henvy
in sympathy with the general list. Mis
souri pacific was week and declined to
the lowest price for some time. Sugar
also displayed weakness and sold down
l. Speculation closed weak In tone. Net
changes show losses of U to 2!i per cent.
Manhattan was an exception und gained
',4 per cent, on the day.
