WASHINGTON.
INTENTIONS TOWARD CUBA.
THAT The PRESIDENT DOES NOT DESIGN TO d.


sOMRruING YET BY NO MEANS CERTAIN.
lsY TELEGRAPH 10 rHE TRTBUNE.l
WASHINGTON, Dee. S-That part of the Presi-
dents message which relates to our intercourse with
Spain, and the condition of affairs in the island OF
Cuba, has been more carefully read to-day III 'he
hight of dispatches from Madrid, describing the eA-
citement that its publication has caused there ana
tie Interpretation OF il that has come from high Adj
mnistraton sources All rumOrs or reports that the
President will, during his present term OF office,
recommend either recognition of the independence
or bellgerency of the Cubans have been finally set
at rest. But this fact does not by any means dis
nose Of the Cuban question, for the President hints
very strongly that it may be the duty of this
Government to interfere TO put stop to the strife
In Cuba and it is by no means certain that Spain
would not consider sUch an action as more wOunding
10 her dignity nation than even the recognition
for which there has been much clamOr. \ high
Government official, in commenting on the message,
said to-day that great nation like the United
States could not afford 20 bluster OF 10 use language
that had no meaning, and that II our own people DO
NOT know what the word intervention meant,
the people Of Spain probably do. On being asked if
il meant war; he replied that if it did not mean
war. il at least did mean a stronger and
more vigorous policy toward Spain than has
vet heen maintained. II is generally believed
that the future course of the President will be gov
erncd entirely 10y the result Of the negotiations now
pendinc between our Government and that Of Spain;
that Spain not only promises to take measures 10
remove the causes Of onr complaint but actually
carries those measures iuo effect, then there viii be
no intervention; but if, on the other hand, the
pending negotiations should fail TO have satisfac-
tors result the President will report that fact TO
Congress and recommend intervention with All that
the term implies. l; ia even bnted that our Govern
meut may be joined in this action by one OF more OF
The leading nations of Europe
Nobody is satisfied with the explanation given,
either in the Presidents or in the report oi
the Secretary Of the Navy, Of the extraordinary
naval preparations that have recently been made.
Unless the President actually intends 70 follow a
policy something like that foreshadowed in the gos-
SIP here reported, there certainly has been no oc-
caeion for Mr.. RObesOn's waThkc preparations
especially at time when money is scarce IN the
Treasury of the United states as well as elsewhere
No sufficient reason for any such large expenditures,
OF time when the Secretary Of the Treasury IS an
tcipating a deficiency, has yet been assigned.

An Insane Asylum 4On Fire.

A special dispatch to the Boston
Post from Quebec on Tuesday says:
The burning of OF the Beaufort Luna
tic Asylum for Females. near this city
on Friday night, awaken additional
horror as the real extent Of the dread
full calamity begins to be realized.
The asylum contained. 435 patients.
and it is supposed the fire originated
in the cell of a woman of vicious char
acter, named Mary Breton.
Her conduct had been such that she
had to be put in the cells, and she
vowed she would have her revenge.
While the inmates were at prayer she
is supposed to have set her bed on Fl p
and shut her cell door, thus allowing.
herself to perish in the flames whlc.
she herself had kind ed. The suffo-
eating smoke was Sufficient to deter the
boldest from entering the building
after it was wrapped io flames, but. in
spite Of it, all worked bravely to save
life. Never was there more heart
rending sight. Some of the poor ma
MACS rushed into corners aud otstin--
ately refused to- be removed. Others
fled down corridors into the darkest
cellars and We're found shivering with
fear. Others, again, ran up into the
cupola and on to the roof and It Was
only with the greatest difficulty hat
they could be brought down In the
craze of fright the poor creatures be-
came almost rabid, and when they were
huddled together tnsir frantic talk and
hysteric shreks were pitiable Young
girls laughed and danced la gleetul
joy; some old danes crooned in qli-
vering voices ballads and soags. But
the smell Of smoke acted upon some of
them as that of blood upon tiger, and
they nerved themselves for fight. They-
bit, tore and scratched, and became as
refractory as possible. Strange to say,.
one OF the worst cases Of the female
ward entirely recovered her reason in
the panic, and now is as sane as posi-
ble- The fire was spreading with
frightful rapidity, the corridors filing
with suffocating beat and smoke.
Every window belched out its volume
OF black smoke and the inmates be-
came still more noisy and intractable.
They would not leave; they hid under,
beds, wrapped up in blankets ershee's,
and 1T required extraordinary strength
70 extricate them. But all could NOT
be saved. There were these who put
themselves beyond the reach Of human
help, and went down to the death they
courted. The flames kept dancing
the lofty corridors, but still the patients
bid, and, despite the almost superhu-
man efforts made to rescue them, at
least twenty perished in the flames.
