Spwatab OfBelala ImpliwMe in tbe Maine Murder, “But Not General Blaneo.” Washington, April 12.—Consul General Lee was before the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations for an hour late to-day. He talked freely with the commitffee in re gard to the conditions in Cuba, and especially with reference to the destruction of the Maine. He said that, in his opinion, there was no room to doubt that the destruc tion of the vessel was due to Span ish agencies. “Do you mean the Spanish au thorities in Cuba?” he was asked by a member of the committee. “I mean the Spanish officials,” he replied, “but not General Blan co.' I think some of the officials were cognizant of the plan to de stroy the vessel, but I do not be lieve that the Captain General was.” General Lee said that he had no knowledge of the report that a mine had been discovered by a diver under the Montgomery while that vessel lay in Havana harbor. The consul general did not ar rive at the capitol until 5 o’clock. He came in a street car and was not recognized by the one or two hundred people who had congre gated on the outside of the build ing to see him, but in the corridors at the entrance to the room of the committee on foreign relations he was recognized and given a hearty hand-clapping. He respondec with a bow and a smile and has tened into the committee room. that kind, wouldn’t have paid that much money for 20,000,000 dogs. But the old man wasn’t up on dogs.—Wilmington Star.

It is the intention of the Repub lican members, now that an agifte- ment has been reached, to call >ip the Democratic members of the committee to-morrow morning and to make a report to the house as soon as it convenes at noon. The single resoluton agreed upon by the Republican members will be introduced by a preamble recit ing the conditions on the island of Cuba, the facts as known concern ing the destruction of the Maine and briefly making a strong indict- against Spain for her conduct of affairs on the island. The pream ble will, in a epitomized form, fol low very closely the lines of the President’s message, but that portion of it referring to the Maine disaster will take stronger ground than did the message. It was stated late to night on high authority that an arrangement has been practically effected by which the resolution may pass both houses to-morrow: It is under stood that the foreign affairs com mittee of the house and senate will confer before the assembling of congress for the purpose of perfecting an agreement whereby the Foraker resolution w ill be sub mitted for the other resolutions. It will be modified by the elimina tion of the second paragraph, which recognizes Cuban independ ence, and other slight changes made to conform to the decision reached by the committees. Tc night the members of the senate committee believe that the resolu tion will pass both houses by's practically unanimous vote. It is said that if necessary a continuous sitting will be had in the senate in order to secure final action during the legislative day of Wednesday. The Foraker resolution as origi nally introduced is as follows, the second section, however, is to be omitted: * Be it resolved by the Senate and the house of representatives of the United States of America : 1. That the people of the islanc of Cuba are and of right should be free and independent. 2. That the government of the United States hereby recognizes the republic of Cuba as a true am lawful government of tnat island. 3. That the war Spain is w^iag against Cuba is so destructive o' the commercial and property in terests of the United States, ant so cruel, barbarous and inhuman nmjples, or ah oily, skin, or dis eased scalp.qJfT n Jfders, creams and laticusdestv^ j/le most healthy and fairest comp^xion.
