  Different experiments on hadron spectroscopy have long suspected the
existence of several cascade states in the $1900-2000 {\rm MeV}$ region. They
are usually labeled under the common name of $\Xi (1950)$. As we argue here,
there are also theoretical reasons supporting the idea of several $\Xi (1950)$
resonances. In particular, we propose the existence of three $\Xi(1950)$
states: one of these states would be part of a spin-parity $(1/2)^{-}$ decuplet
and the other two probably would belong to the $(5/2)^{+}$ and $(5/2)^{-}$
octets. We also identify which decay channels are the more appropriate for the
detection of each of the previous states.
