Tho Destiny of The Tariff Kill SHU In The

Washington, May 20. Tho situutlou in
tho Senate so far as tho tariff bill is concerned .
becomes moio critical every day and the

Senators who, a month ago, predicted a'

Should the friepfls of tho tariff bill make

It is stated, will continue to discuss Cuba,

SECRETARY OLNEY'S PROPOSAL !
A Communication to Minister Do Lome
Whloh Pointed Out the Futility or
i pain's Struggle and Suggested
a Plan of FeaceaMo In
tervention. Washington, Kay 20. The secret ar
ohlvea of tfie state department, which
have held the consular reports on tiie
Cuban war from the public, were par
tially dlscldaed yesterday by Senator
ForaUer, of Ohio. During the past
week the delmto In the senate baa been
pregnant with Intimations and Inueh
doeB of reports from United States of
ficials In Uuba held at the state de
partment, which, If published, would
disclose a i condition on Cuban soil
which would Influence public opinion in
a decided manner. The facts which
Senator Foralter announced created a
decided atlr. Especially startling was
the letter from Secretary Olney, In
which this country offered mediation
to Spain and the refusal of that coun
try to accept the preferred aid.
While on of the consular reports
was read without the name of the au
thor being Hlsclosed, It is Btated to be
a communication from Consul General
Lee, which fully sets forth his Idea
of the condition that exists In Cuba.
The cxtraot was quoted In substance as
follows, no date being given:
"I cannot understand the truth of the
claim that all the provinces of the
Island are naelfled, except that of San
tiago de Cuba, because there are more
Insurgents ?under arms at this time
than at the; period I first reached the
Island, some ten days ago, and I do
not think it a fair Inference to draw
from existing conditions that the war
Is approaching n termination.
"The impossibility of expelling the
Spanish trops from this Island by
force of anps Is well known to tho In
surgents, and they do not propose to
risk the llfes of their men and the
success of tpelr cause upon one or more
pitched battles. I conclude, therefore,
that the war will drag Its weary length"
along so Ions as the Insurgents can
dig sustenance from the ground on the
one side or money be obtained on the
other, with the continued result of un
told human suffering, loss of human
life, tho murder of Innocent men, wom
en and children by both sides and the
frightful havoc which disease makes
n the ranks of the soldiers, particu
larly nmonc the unaccllmated Span
iards, The poverty and distress of the
people are dally Increasing and the
loss of property of all sorts dally be
coming enormous."
The letter from Secretary Olney to
Spanish Minister De Lome, under date
of April 4, 1890, Is the one In which In
tervention Is suggested. It Is In part
as follows:
"It-Is now some nine or ten months
since the nature and prospects of the
insurrection were first discussed be
tween us. In explanation of its rapid
and, up to that time, quite unopposed
growth and progress you called atten
tion to the rainy season, which from
May or June until November renders
regular military operations impractica
ble. Spain was pouring such numbers of
troops Into Cuba that your theory and
opinion that, when they could be used
In an active campaign, the Insurrection
would be almost Instantly suppressed,
seemed reasonable and probable.
"It Is Impossible to deny that the ex
pectations thus entertained by you
have been completely disappointed. The
Insurgents seem today to command a
larger part of the Island than ever
bofore. Their men under arms, esti
mated a year ago at from 10,000 to
20,000, are now conceded to be at least
two or three times as many. Mean
while their discipline has been Im
proved and their supply of modern
weapons and equipment has been
greatly enlarged, while the merp fact
that they have held out to this time
has given them confidence In their own
eyes and prestige with the world at
large. In Bhort, It can hardly be ques
tioned that the Insurrection, Instead ot
being quelled, Is today more formida
ble than ever, and enters upon the
second year of Its existence with de
cidedly Improved prospects of success
ful results. Whether a condition of
things entitling the insurgents to re
cognition as belligerents has yet been
brought about may, for the purposes of
the present communication, be regard
ed as Immaterial.
"Even If It be granted that a condi
tion of Insurgency prevails, and noth
ing more, It Is on so large. a scale and
diffused over bo extensive a region
and is so favored by the physical feat
ures ot the climate of the country that
the authority of Spain Is subverted
and the functions of Its government
ar n abeyance or practically guspend
ed throughout a greater part of the
Island. A vast.area of the territory of
the Island Is In effect under the con
trol of roving bands of Insurgents. The
result Is a systematic war upon the In
dustries of the Island, and whereaa the
normal annual product of the Island Is
valued at something like $80,000,000 or
$100,000,000, Its value for the present
year Is estimated by competent au
thority at not exceeding $20,000,000."
Further on Mr. Olney calls attention
to the fact that capital is fast with
drawing from the Island, "frightened
away by the utter hopelessness of the
outlook," and continues: "It may well
be feared that It tile present insurrec
tion Is to be of shorter duration than
the last It will be beoause the end is
to come sooner or later through the In
ability of Spain to prolong the oon
lllct, and through her abandonment pf
the Island to the heterogeneous eombl
nation of elements now In arms against
her."
Such a conclusion, Mr. Olney said.
would almost Inevitably result In a
war of races, with the probable estab
lishment of a white and black republic.
Proceeding, Mr. Olney'a communica
tion declares that the situation Is of
great Interest to the people of the Uni
ted States, because of the Interruption
of extensive trude relations, the whole
sale destruction of property, the anni
hilation of American investti.i ms ana
the Impoverishing of American citizens,
which, he says, "has led mr.nv good
and honest persons to Insist that In
tervention to terminate the conflict 1
the Immediate and Imperative r.uty of
the United States."
He said his purpose wan not r.t that
the United States could not contem
plate with complacency another ten
years of Cuban Insurrection, His sug
gestion looked to finding a Way "to co
operate wl' h Spain In the Immedi
ate pacification ot the Island on such
a plan aa, leaving Spain her rights of
sovereignty, shall yet secure to the
people of the island all such rights and
powers of local self government as they
can reasonably ask. To that end the
United States offers and will use her
good offices at such times and In such
manner as may be deemed most ad
visable." Mr. Olney then suggests that neither
Spain nor the Cubans can reasonably
object to this intervention, and adds
that if anything Is to be done It should
be done at once, and on Spain's Initia
tive. In closing, he says the communi
cation Is prompted by the friendliest
feelings towards Spain and the Span
ish people.
Mr. Foraker read extracts from Mr.
De Lome's reply, among them the fol
lowing: "There Is no effectual way to pacify
Cuba, unless It. begins with the actual
submission of the armed rebels to the
mother country.
"The .government of the United States
could, by use of proper means, contrib
ute greatly to the pacification of the
iBland of Cuba.
"The government of his majesty Is
already very grateful to that of the
United States for Its Intention to pros
ecute the unlawful expeditions to Cuba.
The struggle Is being prolonged by the
powerful assistance which the rebel
lion finds In the territory of this great
republic.
"The constant violation of Interna
tional law In Its territory Is especially
manifest on the part of Cuban emi
grants, who eare nothing for the losses
suffered In the meanwhile by the citi
zens of the'Unlted States and of Spain
through the prolongation of the war.
"When the government of the United
States shall once be convinced of our
being In the right, and that honest con
viction shall In some manner be made
public, but little more will be required
in order that all those In Cuba who
are not merely striving to accomplish
the total ruin of the beautiful country
In which they were born, being then
hopeless of outside help and powerless
by themselves, will lay down their
arms."

RICHARD BURNS WAS THE LEADER.
Stolen Property Recovered by Offleera To
day Will Convict Him and Others of
at Least Three Robberlef of
the Past Few Months.
The people of town, esnecislly tbose en
gaged Iu business, will rejoice to hear that
tne authorities have at last located the
thieves that have been committing so tnsuy
petty depredations for several months past
ana up tn the present time snccessfnlly
eluded all efforts made to arrest or trace
them.
From existing evidence it is quite clear
mat me thieves had their headquarters In
the Fifth ward and on Glovers' Hill, and
stiinclent evidence lias been secured te con
vict at least two of them.
It will be remembered that at about three
o'clock in the morning, a few days ago, one
Itichard Burns made an attempt to force an
entrance at the rear of Amandus Womer's
house on North Main street. Iu trying to
pry open a door ho made n noise that
awakened Mrs. Womer and she gave an
alarm. Policeman Edward Kester and
Watchman O'Hara were In Pear alley, at
the rear of the premises, and caught
Bums as he ran out. Tlio prlsonor, although
a small follow, showed fight to tho otlleers,
but was overcome and is now In jail. The
pollco say Burns is ono of tho most skillful
mid desperate, as woll as shrewdest young
thieves over found In the town. Ho is about
10 years of ago. but will easily wm in ap
pearance for 10. Tbo police say that had ho
not been drunk on tho morning beattompted
to get into tho Womer place lio would iu all
probability still bo at large and playing hide
and seek with the authorities.
Immediately after Bums was landed in
jail several clues commenced to develop and
tills morning they had grown to such prom
ising proportions that several search war
rants m ere issued by Justice Shoemaker and
placed in the bauds of C. & I. Policeman
Bedeaand Constable Phillips. Tho olllcors
searched bouses on Glover's Hill and West
Lino street with excellent success. In ono
place they found tools that wore stolen from
tbo carpenter sbopatKohinoor colliery about
a month ago. In anotbor they found rasors
that wero stolen from Folts's harbor shop on
tbo morning following tho night tho
Kohinoor shop was robbed. Thoy also found
two pairs of clippers, half a dozen razors, a
hone, a pair of barber's scissors and other
supplies which it is believed formed part of
tne stocK in Urodonck's barbershop, on West
Lloyd street, when it was robbod several
months ago.
Hftdea and Phillips havo amplo ovidonco to
connect Burns with tho Kohinoor, Foltz and
othor robbeiles in addition to tbo Womer
charge, so tlmt bo will in all probability
stand a good chanco for long imprisonment.
who the accomplices aro thoy dccliuo to say
at present, but it is believed that at least ono
of them will be arraigned withiu a few days
and tho work of breaking up one of tho
sharpest gang of thieves that has infested
tbo town since tbo days of tho Flynn-KIIno
gang will be woll under way.

language that the Hkrald cannot give it

Gibson or his backer. Tbo IIeuald still has
the $60 posted by 'each of the parties for a
