Garner will deliver a lecture in the Academy of Music next Tuesday night, April 19th in aid of the Greensboro Public Library. The lecture will be both instructive and entertaining. The following is itne syllabus of the lecture: The speech of the monkeys and other animals. First efforts to study it. The use of the phonograph. Monkeys, apes and men. Physical and mental.

Garner gave to a large audience in Princes Hall last night an interesting account, of his work and methods in studying the speech of monkeys, and the habits of the goril la and chimpanze in their native for ests. The Times, London, Eng. His methods, themselves, begin to wear the glamor of the black arts, and what are his apparatus but magic toys? To play all day long with the phonograph, as Mr. R. L. Garner has been doing for some years experi menting on the speech of monkeys He has certainly found a fascinating theme. The perseverance and ingenuity with which he has set about exploring his terra incognita is remarkable. The Spectator, London, Eng. Baseball Yesterday. At Cincinnati Cincinnati 2, Cleve land 3.

WARM TIME III THE SENATE House and Senate Leaders Look ing for Joint Arrangement SESSION MAY RUN INTO SUNDAY Speech Making the Order of the Day. Late This Afternoon No Time tlab Been Set to Vote. By Wire to Thb Telegram. Washington, April 16 When the senate met this morning it was with the understanding that before adjourn ment today a vote should be taken on the foreign relations committee reso lutions. The exact time to vote can not be stated; but it will be taken late this evening and possibly the legisla tive day may be carried over into Sunday. If the house can be prevailed upon to hold its session until the joint action of congress can be finally arranged and ultimately the resolutions can be sent to Spain on Monday. This is not likely. Orders have been issued to mobalize troops in the south and there is great activity in the navy depart ment. SENATOR CANNON OPENS. DEBATE. Washington, April 16 SenatorCan non. of Utah, opened the debate this morning with a vigorous speech in fa vor of the recognition of the Cuban government. Senator Cannon charged the presi dent with being vacilating, without purpose, without policy, one thing to day and another tomorrow. He de clared that he was for the recognition of the exisiting government of Cuba because it is the logic of the commit tee? report that there is but one way for peace and through the brazen gate of war. Senator Allen, of Nebraska, fol lowed Senator Cannon aud said he wanted to enter a protest against the so-called powers entering the white house and telling the American people what they should do respecting a pol icy to be pursued on this hemisphere. He said; "I cannot understand why the president did not indicate to these so-called Powers that the presentation of their note will be considered a vio lation of all the traditions and all the doctrines of this country. Now, I am told that the so-called Powers are mus tering themselves for another assault upon the white house." Allen, con tinuing, urged the recognition of the insurgents and predicted that if we in terfered in Cuba without recognition, twenty-four months later these same Powers would bo inviting us to an in ternational arbitration on the liabil ity of the United States for the Span ish-Cuban indebtedness. Allen was proceeding to outline his career as a private when time was called. Senator Burrows, of Michigan, fol lowing Senator Allen, announced him self in favor of the president's policy and said that the president was sub jected to unjust and cruel criticism. "Those who are prone to criticize should imitate the patriotism of Ben jatrin Harrison, who said, 'where a pilot is hired to steer a ship through the rapids, it does more harm than good for the passengers to tell him how to steer.' Barrows added: 'I am for intervention, prompt, speedy and armed intervention. It would be a step sanctioned by prece dents and all nations, and one that will meet the approval of all Christen dom. Intervention does not neces sarily mean war. If Spain resists our efforts she becomes the aggressor in such a conflict and would lose the sympathy and support of the Chris tian world." When Senator Burrows finished speaking, senator .fiatt was recog nized and said: "The time for ora tory and impassioned utterances has passed There has never been a time for hot words. Epithets, intemperate zeal, and oratory will not bombard Morro Castle. Strong words mav wound the president but will not pierce the armour of Span ish -warships. I believe that the desired result might have been ac complished peacefully if it had not been for the misstatement of those who desire to plunge the country into war CONGRESS TO MEET SUNDAY. Washington, April 16 Negotiations are in progress by the house and sen ate leaders looking to a possible ar rangement for the house and senate to remain in session tomorrow and to come to a final conclusion upon the Cuban resolutions. U. S. FORCES WELL START MONDAY. Washington, April 16 Adjutant General Corbin has just made the statement that the United States forces will all commence a southern move ment Monday if congress passes the resolution bythat time.

WARSHIPS SIGHTED. Washington, April 16 Five war ships have been sighted off the Island of St. Thomas. They are believed to be Spanish. DISCUSSING CAPTURE OF HAVANA. Washington, April 16 Fitz. Lee conferred with the president, General Miles and Secretary Alger today re garding plans for the capture of Ha vana and considered other military strategic matters. Movement of Troops. By Wire to Thb Tklkgram. Leavenworth, April 16 Under com mand of Col. Hawkins, the Twentieth infantry hurried this morning aboard a special train for the southeast. Chicago, April 16 The Fourth in fantry left Fort Sherman this morn ing. Cheyenne, April 16 The Eighth in- antry started this morning for New Orleans. Denver, April 16 Sergeants Bald win, Myers, and Burnett, of the sig nal corps, department of Colorado, started for New Orleans today.

Southampton, April 16 The Ameri can Liner St. Louis sailed for New York today on her regular trip. The New York will sail this afternoon in response to an urgent telegram. SENATORS PASS THE LIE. loney and Wellington Have a Warm Passage of Words. Washington, April 15 "Pistols and coffee for two, and a bloodness duel will no doubt, be the result of the ex change of personalities indulged in to night by Senators Money and Wel lington. The happy remark made by Senator Wilson, just in the nick of time averted trouble on the floor of the Senate. Wellington charged that Senator Money was the agent of the J New York Journal. Senator Money denounced this as false. Wellington repeated it, saying he did so on his own responsibility. "You are a liar," shouted Money. "You are another," warmly replied Wellington. The Maryland Senator said he would not disgrace himself by answering the Senator from Mississippi." "We will settle it outside. We will go out now and settle it," repnea Money, darting for the door. At this instant, Senator Wilson broke in by askincr the President if in would be in order to declare war, and everybody laughed. A few minutes later Senator Money apologized to the Senate, say ing, however, that he did not apolo gize to the Senator from Maryland. Friends of the two Senators are now trying to patch up the difficulty. Senator Mocey, it is said, will de mand an apology from Senator Wel lington. If it is.- refused, then there may be trouble, as he is a game man At the Academy Tonight. "Faust" is one of the greatest moral lessons ever written and many critics declare the story more powerful thin a sermon. A' show that everyone should see and most specially the young. The electrical effects are won derful, as well as the hypnotical pow ers of the devil, showing vividly the great influence he has over the minds of the young.

ENGLAND HAS DEFEATED 'EM The Powers Must Not Attempt to Coerce Uncle Sam OHN BULL WILL TAKE A HAND Spain Gathering Her Forces for War. All Able-bodied Subjects are Being Ordered Home. Cable to Thb Tklkgram. London, April 16 England has de feated the powers in their efforts to coerce the United States by saying that in an event of that .kind she is the active ally of the United States. MOBALEZING HER FORCES. Madrid, April 16 Spain is gather ing her military forces forwar. Every able bodied subject capable of bearing arms or of serving in the navy has been called home from every foreign country. STILL LEAVING CUBA. Havana, April 16 Public opinion expressed here is to the effect that there is a strong belief in the proba bility of war. The- Segiranica sailed today, crowded with passengers. The city is quiet. AMERICAN CONSULATE GUARDED. Madrid, April 16 The American consulate is under guard at Cadiz, owing to some disturbance. ENGLAND NO PARTY TO IT. Union Jack and Stars and Stripes in Combination. London, April 16 The Chronicle says: "England is now once more drag ged at the heels of despots, and made to play the game of the latest of the rotten tvrannies . that encumber the but America stands in a different cat egory. She is a very erreat power, in tensely proud and entirely self con tained. Her fate has been to under take a task peculiarly arduous and thankless. She is not going to be bul lied by the heroes of the Cretan block ade, and if the movement against her is pressed too far, she will be com pelled in her own interests to clear the situation. "Our present purpose is to insist that our government does best by using every means in its power to de feat any anti-American combination. If there be any doubt about the feel ings of the great majority of the nation, we shall be happy to try the experiment of marching a hundred thousand Lon- donersjthrough the metropolis with the Union Jack and the Stars and Stripes in combination. It is the business of the mother country to stand by her children of the west, as stiffly and strongly as one country can by anoth er." The Times, which attaches no impor tance to the rumors of a European demonstration against the United States, says: "England would assured ly be no party to such a demonstra tion, but it is even more absurd to suggest that because England sympa thizes with American indignation at Cuban horrors, the British govern ment ought to rush into armed allia- ance with the United States for a set tlement of a question in which we have no immediate concern." SPAIN'S NAVY IN BAD SHAPE. Work Delayed on the Charles V. and the Pelayo. Madrid, April 14 Advices from Ferrol and Carthagena assure me that the battleships Charles V and Pelayo won't be ready under two months. Naval authorities .at Ferrol, Cartha gena and Cadiz complain bitterly that the "building and fitting out of war vessels has not been done abroad, as the native industry resources are ut terly insufficient. They also complain of the war stores that the ammuni tion and shells are of all sizes. The present war scare may lead to revela tions of possibilities that will be very grave indeed for the Madrid govern ment's marine ministers for the last ten years. The auxiliary cruisers, commanded by officers of the royal navy, seem destined to play an important part in the war. Ada Rehan Honored. By. Cable to The Telegram. London, April 16 Ada Rehan was elected the permanent governor of the memorial theatre at Stratford-on Avon. Miss Goodhue's Entertainment. The entertainment given' last'night at the Academy of Music by Miss Goodhue, of New York, was one of the best ever seen in Greensboro. Miss Goodhue easily showed that she is a finished elocutionist and the program of last night demonstrated Miss Good hue's ability as an impersonator. Her impersonations of little folks in the Knight of 19th century, "what a little boy thinks," seing things in the dark, and the experience" of a young society woman were exceedingly true" to life and very laughable. In the'potrayal child life Miss Goodhue is Jmost hap py. A mosaic of familiar authors, showed most clearly her versatility as an elocutionist. The imitations of "bird talk" were the best ever heard here. As a little girl expressed it: they were so true to life that everyone looked to find the birds. No one por tion of the program can be selected as the best, for all of-the selections were admirably rendered. Everyone thor oughly enjoyed the entertainment and should Miss Goodhue ever return to Greensboro she will receive a most hearty reception. Misses Minnie and Hetty Lyon charmed theijj audience with instru mental duets. Miss -Minnie Lyon played some very pretty selections on the violin accompanied by her sister on the piano. Mrs. Hagan's solo, accompanied by Mrs. Van Noppen on the Piano, was very prettily sung and won for her much applause. The music was ex- exceptionally good and was much en joyed. THE MARKETS.
