MjBM.ujnrffjLLfL ' j p -im j' '-, A MAIDEN HAVING FALLEN IN LOVE WITH A SNOW MAN, FIND-. NG THAT TENDER WORDS FAILED TO WARM HIS FROZEN HEART, 3EGS AN OLD FRIEND, THE SUN, FORECAST OF THE WEEK IN CONGRESS Little Chance for Action on the Arbitra tion Treaty. MR. CHANDLER ON THE CURRENCY lie Will Speak on the Resolution De claring Thnt It Is the SetiHc of the Senate That the United States Should Not Acquiesce in the Single Gold Standard'-House Frogrnuime. Washington, Feb. 14. When the sen ate adjourned yesterday after another afternoon of useless discussion on the general arbitration treaty, the Impres sion by many senators was that Mr. Sherman had become convinced theie was little, If any, chance of getting action during this session of the sen ate. The belief appears to be that he will make one or two more efforts to press a vote after devoting an after noon to discussion and that then, with out formally announcing his determi nation, he will permit the treaty to remain on the calendar without seek ing to press It for consideration. The friends of the treaty believe It would be ratified If a vote could be had, but this claim Is denied by others who, however, appear to be better satisfied to have action postponed than to permit the vote to be taken. It is evident that a determined effort is be ing made by a few senators to prevent ratification. For this reason it Is thought the treaty will go over until March 4, when there will bo abundant time for the senate to discuss it thor oughly while considering the nomina tions the new president may send in. MR, CHANDLER ON CURRENCY. Tomorrow Mr. Chandler will address the senate on the resolution introduced by him declaring that It is the sense of the senate that the United States should not permanently acquiesce In the single gold standard. Mr. Chand ler Is not In entire harmony with his party on the financial question, and Is much Inclined to make himself a free lance In debate. The Immigration bill which has come from conference the second time will not take up much of the time of the senate, an agreement having been reached to vote on it Wednesday at 4 o'clock, The bill as It now stands removes the objections raised to the first report and has already been agreed to in the house. It will doubt less pass the senate without opposi tion. The bankruptcy bill Is the unfinished business, but no one believes there will be any serious effort to pass this meas ure. The friends of the voluntary bankruptcy bill are afraid that the ad vocates of the Involuntary plan have a majority of votes and so will talk against time if any attempt is made to get a vote. The western senators look upon the involuntary plan as being in the Interest of the east, or the credit or class, and argue that their bill which provides for involuntary bankruptcy In case of fraud only, gives all the protection to both creditor and debtor that either class should ask. The Hawaiian cable bill is clamor ing for recognition, hut not with any prospect of passing at this session. HOUSE PROGRAMME. The house will tomorrow resume consideration of the sundry civil appro priation bill, it will be in order to move that the rules be suspended and the bill passed without further read ing or amendment. Mr. Cannon, of Illinois, In charge of the bill, gave no tice Saturday afternoon that he would test the sense of the house upon this proposition. Should this motion not prevail, the bill Is likely to remain the unfinished business before the house for the rest of the week. The naval appropriation bill will be reported Wednesday or Thursdey, Chairman Routelle believes, and it will be taken up as soon as possible. THE BIO BICYCLE RACE. A Largo Audience Witnesses Wind-Uu at Pittsburg. Pittsburg, Pa., Feb. 14. The thu old . Pennsylvania rink. In which the six days' (72 hours) bicycle race was held last week, was packed to the limit last evening with enthusiasts assem bled to witness the wind-up of the contest, which, from the standpoint of a bicycle race, was certainly an excep tional one, nil things considered. Wal ler's record of 1,221 miles nnd thiee laps stands as a world's record for a 72-hour contest. Of the nine starters on Monday, six continued to the fin ish, The great battle was between Glmm and Waller. Gimm's misfortune Friday gave Waller a lead of almost fifteen miles. Uy terrlflo effort In the face of adversity the plucky Cleveland boy reduced this gap, and at the close last night was but two miles behind the TO HELP HER. New Yorker. Another great fight all the way through was between Forster and Hall for fourth place, ine racers were liberally pationlzert and the lac ers, who receive f.O per cent, of the re ceipts and a number of special purses from admirers, will be well 1 enumer ated. The final score at midnight was: Waller, 1,221 miles; Glmm, 1,219; Schock, 1,200; Hall, 1,183; Forster, 1,170; Rieket, 1103. BILLION DOLLAR CONGRESS.

TRAFFIC IN HUMAN FLESH Another Instance of Spanish Brutality. Cuban Girls Sold to the Highest Bidders at Auction. Key West, Fla., Feb. 14. According to the Havana newspaper, La Lucha, a copy of which was received here by the last steamer, young Cuban git is, taken prisoners by the Spaniards, are being auctioned off In various towns throughout the island. La Lucha is one of Havana's leading newspapers, and is controlled by Marquis de Palm erola, Weyler's secretary of state. In the iHsue lecelved here La Luchn's cor respondent at Artemlsa gltfes an ac count of one of these sales at that place. On Feb. S the Spanish column commanded by Colonel Estruch, re turned to Artemlsa after raiding a Cu ban settlement near Cayajabos. The settlement was destroyed and eighteen men and five women killed. Eight wo men and sixteen children were taken prisoners, and these were taken by the troops to Artemlsa. Ten of the chil dren were girls langlng In age from 10 to 14 years and well developed, as Cu ban girls usually are at that age. When the troops reached Artemlsa It was an nounced that the girls would be sold nt auction on the next day. The sale took place as advertised In the main plaza of Artemisia, and a great crowd was piesent. One of Colonel Estruch's officers acted as auctioneer, and he described the good points of the girls as glibly as any crier In the slave mart of Constantinople could have done. The bidding was of the liveliest chnraetei, the women of Ill-repute and notorious debauchees contesting for possession of the girls, Nine of the gills were knocked down to these characters at prices running from $1S to $60, and then the tenth prisoner, who was about 14 years old and very beautiful, was put upon the block, and her good physical points weie narrated In the most shameless language by the auctioneer. The bidding for this girl was most spirited, but soon narrowed down to a contest between one of Col onel Estruch's sergeants and the queen of the half world of Artemisia, notorious throughout Cuba as a dealer In young girls. The price advanced rapidly and soon the sergeant offered $100 for the glil. The woman raised the sergeant $10, and the latter offered $120. This was too much for the wo man and the girl was knocked down to the sergeant. As it was known the latter had no money, Inquiry was made as to whom he represented, and It was learned that he bid In the girl for Col onel Estruch, who had taken a fancy to her. When the story appeared In La Lucha It aroused great Indignation among the Catholic clergy of Havana, and the bishop ordered an Investiga tion. The bishop learned from Father Gon zales, of Artemisia, that the girls had been auctioned off as described and that the priest hud protested In vain against the traffic In human flesh. The bishop then went to the place and pro tested so strongly that he secured an order on the mayor of Artemisia to re- THE SCIMNTON TTtlBUNE-MO.NDA.y oUOTtNUSTG. ji MORAL-NEVER CALL IN A AFFAIR.-Lifo cover the girls and deliver them to the Catholic authoiltles. The bishop also demanded that Colonel Estruch be re moved from command, but this was lefused. Another sale of Cuban girls occurred at Zapaste, Havana province, on Feb. 8. Spaniards raided a Cuban settle ment near Zapaste, Eighteen houses were burned and sixteen persons butchered, among them four women. There were several caves In the vicin ity and these weie also raided by the Spaniards, who found them full of Cuban women nnd children. Some of the women leslsted and five of them were shot, The troops leturned to Za paste on the evening of Feb. 8, having with them tventy-two women and gills and several small children. The man led women were sent to prison, but the girls were sold at auction In the main plaza of Zapusto, the pur chasers, as at Artemisia, being the worst women and young men of the town. Two of the most beautiful of the girls, It Is said, were bidden off for Spanish olllcers. MARKETS AND STOCKS. Wall Street Itcvicu. New York, Feb. 13. Irregularity was the chief chuiacteilstlc of the stock mur ket at the opening this morning. After the initial Hading, however, speculation becamo rather active and prices Inclined sharply In a number of instance". Sugar fell to 110H; Tobacco, IVi to CSW, and Leather Preferred l'fc to 03. The coal and iron stocks were depressed. Ten nessee Coal and Iron fell 2 to 2tfH. The lalhvay list was weak for a time. Louis ville and Nashville, Atchison Preferred and Northern Pacific were all sold by foreign houses. The trunk lines and an thracites showed little of Interest. In the bituminous coalers Hocking Valley was pressed for sale and fell about 2 point to 7. Some of the small bears took their profits In the afternoon, and this Impart ed a somewhat steadier tone to specula tion. Totul sales weie 109,991 shares. Furnished by WILLIAM LINN, AL.
