A KNOTTY QUESTION.
Itis submitted to AgIoE,1ey-GeneroI I,,sy HOnr ror

submitted 10 AIlOrneysNSenerul HOar Tor
Solution.
Among the points submitted to Mr.. Hoar now is
one as TO how far our Government may go in allow
ing the Cubans to t out vessels in ports without
direct violation OF our neutrality laws whether we
are bound by treaty stipulations to go beyond mere
appearances and so TO speak, Ociate as sort of de-
tective in erettng out breaches OF the neutrality laws
This point arises from the fact that all the vessels
supposed to be fitted out for Cuba obtain clearances
for Mexico, Jamaica, st. Thomas, or some other
place, and In no case for Cuba direct
The Spanish authorities claim that when repre-
sentations are made that such vessels are really
destined TO succor the Cubans, and that their clear
ance papers are in point OF fact mere blinds, our
Government to carry out the spirit, well as the
letter OF treaty stpulations should In all such cases
promptly Interfere. Secretary Fish is decidedly OPP
posed to this view OF the question. He holds that
our Government can only examine whether the YES
sells papers are all right and in proper form, and Is
not bound to go step further in execution OF our
International obligations. 1t is believed that the
Attorney-Gen viii concur In the opinion or the
Secretary OF State on this matter What the precise
points are upon which the Attorney Generals opl-
MON IL required in connection with the Alabama
claims, j am not reliably informed
