Senator Lodge Gives Reasons for Im
mediate Recognition.
GROWTH OF THE REVOLUTION I
The Little Band of Five Hundred Has In
creased to Forty-five Thousand In a
Tear Senator Morgan Thinks War
With Spain Would Follow.
Washington, Fob. 21. Tho Cuban
question camo boforo tho sonata yostorday
for definite and Until action, and It is ox
pectcd tlint votos will bo taken nt nn early
day, on tho sovoml ponding propositions
requesting Spain to recognize thebelllgor
ency of Cuba, and requesting a recognition
of Cuban ludepondonce. Thoro Is every
Indication, also, Mint tho debate will lend
to mora radical and docislvo resolutions.
Tho oponlng of tho debate drew largo
crowds to tho galleries, and thoro wcro fre
quent demonstrations of approval at tho
stirring and dramatic utterances of several
of tho speakers. Mr. Lodge, of Massachu
setts, and Mr. Morgan, of Alabama, were
particularly forclblo nnd direct In their
language. In graphically picturing the
rlso nnd spread of tho robjllloti Mr. Lodge
said:
"Just nycar ago nnotlior revolution bo-
gau. It began In tho eastern part of tho
Island with a small band of 500 men.
With tho vast wilderness of lying bulletins
tlint coino from Spanish sources it Is vory
dllllcult, and It Is not worth while, per
haps, to try to trace tho battles which
havo been fought. But thoro nro certain
great facts which there is no mistaking.
Thoso men who started so feobly a year
ago In tho eastern part of tho island havo
crept over tho Island from ono end to tho
other. The 500 havo grown until today
even tho hostllo nccouuts represent them
nt 45.000 in tho Hold.
"Wo know that tho railroad lines nro
cut, that tho telegraph lines aro down,
that every report of a Spanish victory tlint
comes to us in tho newspapers Is followotl
by tho statement of a fresh insurgent ad
vance. Wo know ns a matter of fact thot
tho whole of tlint island todny, oxcept
wherotho Spanish Meets rldo at auchor
and wiiero tho Spanish armies aro en
camped, Is In tho hands of tho Insurgents.
"Wo know tho Insurgents havo formed
a government,, that they hnvo held two
elections, that every ofllcer in tho army
holds his commission from tho govern
ment which they hnvo established. Wo
know tho terms of that provisional gov
ernment, and in tho prosonco of theso
facts and of tho lighting that thoso men
havo done, I think It not unreasonable of
them to usk somo recognition at the hands
of tho United States."
Comparing tho former commander, Gen
eral Martinet t'ampos, with tho present
one, General Wcyler, Mr. Lodgosaid:
"Martinez Campos, tho ablest general In
Spain, has been recalled because ho failed
to put down this Insurrection recalled
whon tho Insurgent troops hail been ac
tually lu tho suburbs of Havana, and in
his place has been sent n man whoso only
renutatlon known to tho world is that of
tho most cold blooded brutality In tho last
war for liberty in that Island."
Again, tho senator said, referring to tho
desperato lighting of tho insurgents, said:
"Cuba is lighting not only for Indepen
dence. Theso men aro lighting, every ono
of them, -with a prico on their hcuds and a
ropo nround tholr necks. Thoy havo shown
that they could light well. They are ngui
ing tho battlo of despair."
Tliero was hearty applauso ns Mr, Lodge
closed with tho following peroration:
"If tho war goes on lu Cuba, with tho
ndded horrors which this now general
brings with him, tho responsibility Is on
us. Wo cannot escape it. wosuouiucx.
crt overy influence of tho United States.
Standing as 1 bollove they no lor human
lty nud clvlllzntlou, wo should exorclso
every Inlluonco of our great country to put
u stop to that great wur that Is now rag
inir there, and try to glvo to that Island
onco more peace and liberty and security."
Mr. Morgan, who reported tho rosolu.
tlou. oxnressed tho opinion that "any na
tion that this country might take looking
to Cuban recognition would result in war
with Spain," and ho also said that Spain
would woleomo a war wiin wns ouumry,
which would afford her u legitimate ox
euso to got rid of Cuba in n way not to
wound hor pride. The galleries broko into
loud applauso whon, in response to aques
tlnn liv Mr. Frvo. Mr. Morgan said:
"My opinion Is that oougross has tho
perfect, Independent, absoluto right to
mako this recognition of bolllgerency, or a
declaration of Independence, and, If it Is
necessary, to onforco It by any military
movement nt sea or on land. It has tho
right to couininndthocommaudor-ln-chlof
of tho army anil navy to go on tno Hem. it
It Is necessary, and expose his person to
tho execution of that ordor. That Is my
opinion."
Mr. Cameron nnd Mr. Cull also Bpoke,
Mr. Cameron gnvo notco that If tho rcso
lutlou was adopted requesting Spain to
act, nnu stroma it not, ho would then
movo for tho Immediate nnd complete
recognition ot uuuan independence.
Throughout tho debate, lusting three
hours, honor I'nstor, ot tho Spanish loga
tion, sat lnthodiplomatlo gallery.
Again tho house attended strictly to
business. Tho coufereneo report on tho
diplomatic and consular bill was agreed
to, tho sonuto amendments to tho pension
bill wero sent to coufereneo, and the In
dlan appropriation bill was taken up. The
latter bill carries su.WJO.wu, or iaj,7W less

Nliw Yoiik, Feb. 21. Willie temporarily
InsaUo Mrs. Kthel Kelso, wlfo of Goorgo
Hndford Kelso, businoss manager of tho
Martin & Urown printing establishment,
killed her two chlldron, Kthel, nged l, and
George, aged 2, last night, nnd then at
tempted suicide
Tho trngedy occurred lu tho handsome
houso of Mr. Kelso, In Nluety-llfth street.
Mrs. Kelso put tho children to bed for tho

thought, took a revolver with which sho
Intended to take her own life and shot
I both of tho children fatally. Thon sho
took her husband's razor and nttomptod
lulcldo by cutting tho arteries lu her wrist.
Tho houso lntd become alarmed, how
ever, nt the nolso of tho shots, and Mr.
Kolso entered tho room In tlmo to savo his
wife's life. Sho bocamo quiet at onco, and
did not seem to realize what lmd happoncd.
The pollco wcro notlflod, and Mrs. Kelso
was taken to the Bcllevue hospital a pris
oner. Her wounds are not serious. Iloth
children expired almost Immediately after
having been shot. From the circumstances
surrounding tho case It is boliovcd that
Mrs. Kelso hud deliberately planned to
commit suicide, but that sho did not at
first Intend to kill tho children, and their
murder was duo to a sudden Impulso as a
result lit homicidal mania, witli which she
was ofllicted.
Mr. Kelso Is a man In comfortable cir
cumstances and the house lh which he
lives is ono of a handsome row ot dwell
ings on West Niuty-flfth street Mr. Kelso

superintendent of tho pollco of New York.
Ho was married a number of years ago
to a Miss Kthel King, whoso parents ro
side out of New York. Their married llfo
was believed to boot tho happiest and Mrs,
Kelso was devoted to her children. Sho Is
about 28 years old, the junior of her hus
band by n few years.

Justices Cardln and Lawlor's Mortgage
on the Borough.
SOME SAY IT'S OF NO YALUE !
One Local Case Cited in Which the Secre
tary of State Declined to Issue Borough
Commissions to Justices Who
Were Similarly Elected.
Upon verbal notice servod by Justice J. J.
Cardln, James McLlhcnny, M. H. Kchlcr
and Jeffrey Williams, Judges of Election in
tho Second, Third ond Fifth wards, respec
tively, met in tho Council Chamber at 0
o'clock this morning to compile tho votes
cast at thu election on Tuesday and isslio
certificates of election of borough candidates.
Jamoi J. Powell and Martin Mtillahy,
Judges of tho Fourth and First wards, re
spectively, did not attend.
Justice Cardln was en hand with his coun
sel, John Whalen. lsq., and asked for certifi
cates of tho election fur himself and
Justice II. J. Lawlor as Justices of tho Peace
of the borough. Mr. Kchlcr bluntly refused
to give such a certificate. He said ho hsd
made a return to tho Protliouotnry of all
the votes cast in tho Third ward, including
those cast for Cardinand lawlor, but would
not give a certificate that those two gentle
men had been elected, because they had not
been rcgulaily proclaimed candidates and
knew nothing of tlicin except that they
received a few votes. Mr. Kchler also
stated that he was not aware that such an
otlice existed. Mr. Whalen's porsuasive
powers failed to change Mr. Keillor's deter
mination. Mr. Cnrdin complained that tho Judges iu
tho First and Fourth wards had refused to
count the votes cast for himself and Mr.
Ijiwlor in thg wards.
Mr. Whalen said it was his intention to
gctn certificate of tho returns from tho
Prothonotary's ofllco and then apply to tho
Secretary of State for commissions for
Messrs. Cardin aud Lawlor.
Tlio matter has created nuito a stir among
llM ot)lcr justices now in office, but they
llo llot socm to bo alarmed by it. It Is
lalmed that neither of the parties can tako
the offices, even If the law is as stated in tho
matter: In tho first place tho parties should
havo been regularly nominated, or at least
tho offices should bin been incorporated In
the election proclamation of the High Con
stable. Second, both men are now Justices
of tho Peaco and wore ineligible candidate
for tho others.
In addition to this it is alleged that iu 1801
Justice Deiiglerand J. K. P. Scheilly ran for
the Kline offices in like manner as Justices
Cardin and Lawlor. W. 1). Seltzer, Esq..
rcpieseiititig Dengler, and J. 11.' Pomcroy,
Esq., representing Scheilly, went to Harris-
burg and applied for commissions for
their clients as Justices of tho Peaco
of the borough of Shenandoah, but tho Ssc
retary of State declined to grant them. A
commission was granted to llcngler as Jus
tice of tlio Peaco of tho Second ward, how
ever, he having been a candidate for the
office at tho same election. It is claimed that
the iaso is fully covered by the constitution
of the state, which provides that two Jus
tices or aldermen may be elcrted m each
ward of a borough.
It is alleged that Senator J. J. Coyle is
responsible for tho instigation of tho move
ment and that lie caused a lawyer named
Olinstead, of Harrisburg, to prepare an
opinion on tho question. Olmstead is sun
posed to be an authority on interpretations
of constitutions and it is said ho lias agreed
to champion tho cause of Cardin and
Lawlor on the condition that ho will
claim no fees if ho is not successful.
Hut even this does not appear to striko terror
to tho hearts of thoso who would bo affected
by success in tho prosecution of tho claim.
On the contrary, they point with somo degree
of lidicule to tlio fact that Olmstcad is tho
same constitutional lawyer who created a
stir through tho state last fall by declaring
that seven Judges of tlio .Supreme Court
could be voted and the people flounderei
about in a pool of doubt until tlio Supremo
Court decided tliat Olmstcad was wrong aud
only six Judges could bo voted for.
