THE yIRGINIus CASE BEFORE THE CABINET
+ - arw WHAT WILL BE DONE ABOUT 1T. .s


rigirn Especial telegram: To the Dispatch. ....
WASHINGTON, November 1.-THE affair OF
the Virginus continues the absorbing topic
of interest in official as well as in outside
public places. The Cabinet, fully attended,
to-day devoted the longest session that has
been held for several months to q discussion
of the brutal circumstances attending the
capture of the steamer as well as 10 the e-
gality of the Spanish naval commanders
action. -.... J VI. +: :s...
AS there is no additional news, the Cabinet
action was informal, and nothing definite
was decided upon. What the Government
asks for Is positive information as to the
legitimacy of the capture us the first thing,
and it may not be satisfied upon this point
for week or more yet. Our official agents
in Spain and Cuba have been telegraphed to
on this point, and other sources of informa-
ton are appealed to to get the exact date OF
the case. .- ..
Cabinet officers to-day are chary of con-
versation in regard to the extremely i'm
portant subject, Us it is considered best not
to express views which may be taken as the
sentiment of the Government upon Il case
which may possibly assume very serious
aspect. 1t is probable that by the end
of the week events of great Importance may
result from the consideration by the Govern.
ment of the facts and circumstances attend
ing the capture.
No special Instructions have yet been
issued. to our naval officers in the southern
waters for their action in the premises. II
is now said that the President will devote a
large portion of his annual message to Gu
ban affairs.

FURTHER DEVELOPMENTS.

WAsBrSGToS, November 11.-At the Cabi-
net meeting to-day there was conversation
of long continuance with regard TO Cuban
affairs generally, and the position occupied
by the United States on that subject. There
was no difference among the members the
full Cabinet as to our duty in the premises,
present and prospective.
While awaiting the necessary official in
formation, there is no doubt that the admi'
raj and commanders of our fleet in Cuban
waters will be, if they have not already been
instructed to observe the orders issued IL
the spring of 1869, when reports came to the
Navy Department, through the press and
telegrams, of several American vessels hav.
ing been searched by Spanish man-of-wai
in British waters, and on the high road oi
nations in the Gulf of Mexico.
The Government then as now, took the
position that while the United States Gov
ernment wished to observe strict neutrality
in regard to the difficulties existing in the
island of Cuba, they could not consent that
our mcrchant-vessels should be molested in
their lawful pursuits, or oYerhauled and eX-
amined, unless they were found committing
some violation of Spanish authority. This
they could only do by landing arms and mu
nitions of war the waters between Cuba
and the United States being used as the great
highway for all nations. Vessels should not
be molested unless they were in marine
league of the island, and not even then, un-
less detected in some overt act -.'...
Discussions have taken place IN official
quarters as to the course this Government
ought to pursue in case Spain should be un-
able to enforce the principles OF interna-
tional law, or violate those applicable TO that
highway of nations, particularly affecting
vessels sailing under the national flag.
1t has been heretofore plainly intimated to
Spain in official communications that the ne,
cessity might be imposed on the United
States to decisively enforce the principles tor
which this Government has earnestly con-
tended. The future will determine when
they shall have practical applications.
The Secretary OF State, ilr conversation
to-day, expressed his surprise at the reported
interview with him yesterday, there being
some things in the publication calculated to
place him in false position. -a..
