DEAFENING GALLERY APPLAUSE.
)
It Is Not Beltoved That This Country
Will Entertain Any Overtures
from the Powers.
By Wire to The Tklbgham
Washington, April 15 This is ex
pected to be the last day of the debate
in the senate. Notwithstanding the
early hour of meeting and the bad
weather the galleries are densely
packed.
The senators who favor recognition
insist that they will secure a vote be
fore adjournment. An. all night ses
sion is likely. Twenty members are
scheduled to speak during the day and
night. The most of the speeches will
be brief; but senators belonging to the
"Peace syndicate" will make their
talks Tong
Many conferences between the fac
tions have been held and all of them
failed of coming to an agreement.
Notice has been given in the senate
that it will sit continuously until a set
tlement is reached.
Senator Cullum began the debate in
an impressive speech in favor of the
majority report. He declared that the
Maine disaster was a deliberate and
atrocious murder. The people demand
that the crime be avenged and that the
blow be struck without delay. If Spain
be permitted to pursue her course in
Cuba she will destroy all patriots.
DEBATE LN THE SENATE.
Washington, April 15 Nine repub
licans will oppose the Davis resolu
tion. When Senator Berry, of Ar
kansas , closed his speech he received
deafening applause from the gallery.
Vice-President Hobart jumped to his
feet and cried in angry tones that there
must be no more of this or he would
be forced to clear the galleries if the
demonstration was repeated.
Senator Daniel, of Virginia followed
Senator Berry and said that diplom
acy is ended and we stand upon the
edge of war. He favors the Turpie
resolution and accused the president
of insincerity in his recommendations
concening Cuba. Senator Quay, of
Pennsylvania, arose to defend the
president and was asked by Senator
Daniel if it is the purpose of the pres
ident to send the army to Cuba to turn
the guns in the face of GQmez thereby
crushing-fche glorious revolution. Quay
answered that he would hang his head
in'shame if he thought such were the
intentions of the resolutions.
ENDORSING THE PRESIDENT.
Washington, April 15 Senator
Piatt presented a resolution from the
republican Editorial Association of
New York endorsing and approving
the president's course. Berry, of Ar
kansas, was the next speaker. He
argued for the recognition of the re
public of Cuba.
The senate is pledged to remain in
continuous session until a vote is
reached.
The War department has closed a
contract for ambulance wagons forthe
army in Cuba.
TO SECURE TRANSPORTATION.
-Washington , April 15 Secretary
Alger issued an order this morning

WILL DECLINE SUGGESTIONS.
Washington, April 15 It is the con
census of opinion among officials of
the State department that if the Pow
ers present a note after the senate
passes 'the resolution under consider
ation that the government will firmly
decline to accept any suggestions.
, Secretary Day says he don't believe
this country will entertain any' over
tures from the -Powers seeking to
change the program already arranged.
The efforts to induce renewed, action.
by the Powers is iiot "regarded serious
ly by the senators. It : is disbelieved
that . anjt: complete - coalition can be
secured in- any radical protest against
our course.
'MONEY NOT EARNED.
Judge Ewart the Best Paid Judge In
the State.
Under the act of 1895 Judge Ewart
was made a criminal court judge with
a liberal salary and power to order
extra terms at $100 a weeic. Under this
statute, Judge Ewart's-salary is larger
than that of any other judge in the
state, except Judge Sutton, who has
the same power.
In 1897 Ewart got an act through
giving him in addition, civil jurisdic
tion with an increase in salary-of $500.
The supreme court held this last act
totally invallid, but the auditor, under
the advice of our blond attorney gen
eral is continuing to pay the $500 for
services which are not and cannot be
rendered.
By the way, what is our attorney
general for, anyway? He formerly
had to do the reporting for the su
preme court bui that duty has been
taken from his shoulders and given to
a reporter at a salary of $1000. This
was done in order that the attorney
general might attend to his duties
without the state employing extra
counsel. But, the attorney general
draws his $3000 and has his $600 clerk
and is never known to perform any
duties except argue a dozen or so ap
peals in criminal cases at each term of
the supreme court.
Recently in the oyster cases in which
it was the duty of the attorney general
to represent the state, the governor
notwithstanding the fact that his econ
omy in lawyers fees, induced him to
contract to abandon the appeal in the
lease case, gave $800 out of the treas
ury to Bill Day and Loge Harris to
argue the case about half an hour in
the supreme court, and probably about
as long in the superior court of Wake
county, whereas the attorney general
should have attended to it and thus
earned at least a part of his salary.

THE POWERS WILL REVIEW
the Cuban Question and

WHO ORGANIZED THE REVOLT?
Indignant Denial that the Spanish
Officers are Responsible for the
Destruction of the Maine.
By Gable to Thb Tklbgbam.
'London, April 15 A Madrid dis
patch received today says the note of
the powers will review the whole Cu
ban question pointing out that all the
troubles with the .United States arise
through the clamor of the sugar man
ufactures who, it is claimed, fomented
and organized the entire revolt. At
tention will be made to the alleged un
molested American filibusterings and
it will be asserted that the chief Insur
gent leaders are not Cubans, but ad
venturers of all nationalties whose
sole purpose is plunder and robbery.
The note presented this afternoon
indignantly denies that Spanish offi
cers are responsible for the Maine
destruction. Premier Sagasta says:
"The infamous 1 calamity merits the
reprobation of all the nations of the
world. Many Americans know the
true cause of the disaster. For the
American people to base their plea for
intervention upon a heartless calamity
of this character is to rebel against
reason and justice. It is impossible
for us" to protest -informally against
the imputation." The note says the
United States consuls in Cuba were
rebel agents and that when autonomy
was promised the island the American
squadron went to Cuba and inspired
the Insurgents to hold out. All these
contentions are supported by docu
mentary evidence which the Spanish
ministry asserts completely proves
that bad faith has been displayed by
the United States.
The note concludes by declaring that
having exhausted every means for
maintaining peace Spain is reluctantly
compelled to prepare for war and to
fight for the maintenance of her rights
and honor.
POWERS WILL INTERVENE.
Rome, April 15 Popolo Romano
says it understands that the powers of
Europe will intervene between the
United States and Spain in favor of
the latter nation. It adds: "Accord
ing to information gathered from
well informed quarters the interven
tion will take the form of a naval de
monstration in which all the powers
will participate."
MRS. MARV HOSKINS,
The Mother of Sheriff Hosklns Dies
at Summerfield.
Mrs. Mary Hoskins, wife of Joseph
Hoskins, deceased, died at the home
of her son Sheriff J. A. Hoskins, at
Summerfield, last night, -aged 85 years.
She was a daughter of Joshua John
son, of Orange ( now Alamance) coun
ty and was one of the few links left
which connect the past with the pres
ent. Best of tall, she was a pious,
christian woman and has gone to her
reward.
The remains will be interred at the
old New Garden burying ground on
Saturday (tomorrow) at 2 p. m.
The Telegram extends condolence to
the bereft relatives.
WANTED TO JOIN THE NAVY.
A Harnett County Farmer Who
Walked to Raleigh.
L. E. Pierce, of Harnett county, a
young man from the country, who is a
typical representative of the interior
farmer, walked into the city yesterday
with the expectation of enlisting and
joining the navy.
Mr. Pierce went first to the Union
rlAnnt. He presented himself at the
ticket office of the Southern Railway
and asked Agent Thad. Sturgis for a
ticket to Norfolk.
Agent Sturgis announced the price
but the stranger failed to produce the
coin. He told Mr. Sturgis that he
had been informed that the govern
ment was .providing transportation
for persons -who desired to join the
navy. Mr. Pierce said he wanted to
get to Norfolk to enlist.
The countryman was informed that
ho such provision had been made and
he left the depot with:a look of disap-
pointment on his countenanoe.
Pierce .'then went to the Adjutant
General's office and he was informed
that there would be no trouble In his
joining the navy providing he was
sound physically; but that he would
have to secure transportation to Nor
folk jtMorning Post.

flAJOR CLEMENT DOWD.
Died at His Home in Charlotte This
.Morning. - .
" We take the following from the
Charlotte Observer: ;
"Major Clement Dowd -breathed his
last this morning at eight minutes to
2 o'clock,, at his residence on North
Tryon street. ."
"The end, although expected at al
most any time fora week, was at last
a shock, for the major had rested so
well the early part of night that- for
the first time in several night the fam
ily, excepting two members Prof.
Jerome and Miss Mattie Dowd had
retired.
"At a quarter to 2 o'clock Prof.
Dowd noticed a change come over his
father, and with the intuition of affec
tion, realized that his spirit was pass
ing into the beyond. Miss Dowd
quickly aroused the rest of the" family,
but before they could get down, the
heart of the patient and-brave sufferer
had ceased to beat."
Then follows a history of Major
Dowd's illness and a short biograph
ical sketch of his life and public ser
vices. He was an intimate friend of
the lamented Zeb Vance and his last
work was the writing of the history of
Vance. Many people all over North
Carolina will read with sorrow,
"Major Dowd is dead."
