WASHINGTON LETTER.
(From Oar Regular Correspondent.)
WasnineTon, May, 28th, 1897.
3 The gag rule of the caticus has been
a apphed to Republican Senators in order
. to hide their tariff differences from the
| public, ~They must do all their kick-
ing before the steering commit.ee, with
the privilege of appealing to the caucus
when the committee decides against
4 them, but they must follow the com-
mittee on the floor of the Denate. It
remains to be seen whether this gag
rule can be made to work.
One of the most notable things abont
the opening of the tariff debate was the
Republican acknowledgement that, i.
stead of the prosperity they promised
the business of the country was in an
_ awfal condition. Ot coursg they claim
that everything will boom after the tars
qf bill becomes a law.,
_. Havemeyer, the King «t the sugar
trust, ig now being trie] for contempt,
for refusing to answer questions asked
by a Senate Committee. fhe trial at-
tracts a crowd dail ;.
Senator Vest opened his short tariff
_ speech by saying : oThere will be ne
factious opposition to the passage of
this pill. We know the desperaie con-
dition of this country, the ruined homes,
the blasted hearts. It prospesity can
~come, even frém our political oppon
eats, we will Lot ouly welcome it, but
we will bless the momeut when it
, comes ; but I do nt believe that higher
tariff duties will bring back the sunshine
and iJlureinate the country,� and closed
with the tollowing: oIf ~our trends can
pring relief, if they can shed light upon
our darkened path, I will hail uo
mavteria whose bands may be the
lamp. Grive us prosperity; relieve the
people. Put blood again in the veins
ot the torpid country. Do this, and I
will accept the boon, no matter whence
it comes ��
In propesing a tarifl amendmen t
providing for a bounty on agnicultura
exports Senator Cannon, of Utah, took
occasion to ulter this:ignificant threat :
If the bill shall tail to give some meas-
ure of justice to the farmer, I shall do
all in my power to overthrow it at the
first opportunity.�
Representative Lentz, of Ohio, who.
38 willing to be the Democratic can-
dicate for governor, says of the outlook :
«The Democratic chances for carrying
the State could hardly be bettered.
Unless the wrong man is put at the
head of the cicket, the Democrats, with
the aid cf the Populists and free silver
Republicaus, will, in my judgement,
easily beat Mark Hanna and the ad-
ministration. It will be a case of po-
litical avalanche sweeping them off the
tace of the pulitical sphere. The Re-
publicans had a bitter dose ot defeat
gt the spring elections, but that wasnTt
a circumstance to the bitter pill they
will swallow this fall.�

~The promotion of Representative Mo-
Lauria to the Senate to fill the vacaacy
caused by the death of the late Senator
Earle, ot South Carolina, until the leg"
islature meets and elects u Senator, was
highly pleasing to the Democrats im
Congress,with whom Senator McI aurin
is deseryedly popular. ;
The choicest bit oi pie handed out
this week by Mr, McKinley was
grabbed by an oex,� as usual, ex-Con-
gressman and ex-Minister to Brazil
Conger, of Iowa, being again nominated
to fill the last named position. Mr.
Conger served in Congress with Mr:
McKinley, like so many cf the others
who have been provided tor.
The friends of Cuba feel that they
have been buncoed by the administra-
tion, and they are disposed to hold Mr.
McKinley responsible. Itis true that
he hid not personally make any prom"
ises, but promises were made by those
who came as neur to claiming to speak
for him as it was possible without
actually dung go, that it was the
intention ot Mr. McKinley to speedily
put into operation his policy, which the
speakers declared would make oCuba
independent. ~Those promises secured
pledges from Republican members of
the House that they wou'l aid in
preventing the Senate belligerency
resolution from being brought before
the House. until Mr. McKinley had
been given ample time to do someting.
Now it is ascertained that it may be
weeks, even months, before Mr. Mc-
Kinley acts upon tae policy which be
hasin mind, it he really has one in
mind.

Shall the independence of Cuba be
obtained by direct purchase from
Spain? In view ot recent events in
Weshingion ond in Madrid, as_ well as
in the liy.st of various hints that have
been dropped regarding the probable
policy of the administration on the
considerable importance, ~This govern
ment might purchase Cuba directly
from Spain, perhaps, as was suggested
nearly fifty years ago, making it a part
of the nationai domain as Alaska and
Lousiana noware. On the other hand,
the sale of the island might ve nego.-
tiated by the friendly odicves ot the
United States between Cuba and the
mother country, the pris? agreed upon
being 1a the nature of a war indemnit ,
secured possibly by bounds guaranteed
ia Washington. Rumors are flying
about that the Spanish government has
been approached upon the subject, and
bas declined te consider the suggestion
tavorably or otherwise. But while the
Canovas ministry might not entertain
the question, it is by no means certain
that some future government might not.

of dollars in lieu of what is certainly
