General Draper said that the conflicting reports left him in doubt whether Maceo had been assassinated, or whether he was really dead. He thought it quite possible that President Cleveland's assertion that the conflict had become one of wanton murder on both sides might be correct. He saw no possible outcome of the revolution but the final victory of Spain or intervention by tbe United States.

General Draper is still opposed to intervention, as he was in the last congress. UNCONSTITUTIONAL. Turnpike Lam of Kentadtj Are Declared to Be Defective.
