This is the problem to which Mr.. Carlisle Is
about to devote himself Its difficulties. in the
belief OF the President. will be moro favorable
than otherwise to the My Policy idea. This
has been foreshadowed by what n Democratic
Senator said: If Cleveland or Carlisle or any
body else can frame a bill that will meet tho
emergency. let him try 1t, Few will object"
The attempt will be mado as speedily as pos.
siblo. Meantime the conditions for ac1uios-
cence Will be prepared as far as possible. the
offices and the patronage OF tho Administra-
ton being a very important consideration in
every stage Of the case.
