BERLIN, GERMANY, Dec. 1.-The Reich
stag to-day resumed the debate on the es-
Inmates.
Baron Won Holman, head of the navy,
said that in order to replace the feet the
estimates of 100000 marks should be
provided annually in the budget. The
Government, however, he declared, only
asked for 20, 900. coo marks annually.
In the course of his address Admiral
Won Holman referred to the heroism oil
the sailors of the German ship ItIis, who
went down with their ship off the Chinese
coast during storm, cheering for the
Emperor.
The mem bers vigorously applauded this
portion of the admiral's speech.
Count Won Posadowksy- Wehner, Minis
ter OF the imperial Treasury, stated that
it was impossible to ignore the rights. of
the federal states to a portion of the i'm.
perial revenue and he expressed hope
that an agreement would be reached by
the government and the chamber so that
the federal states would not be subjected
to excessive demands. He also hoped, he
said, that the redemption of the public
DEBT would be pushed.

would express no opinion, saying he be-
lieved the law had not yet been long

bounties on sugar, however, was still be-
ing considered by the Government.

Belief That the President Hill Soon Issue
NEW YORK, N. Y, Dec. 1.-A:special
to a morning paper from Washington
says: A crisis in the affairs of Cuba is
rapidly approaching, and there is every
reason to believe that President Cleveland
has already decided on q course which
will startle the country almost as much
as did his famous message on Venezuela,
although the exact time for the announce.
ment depends somewhat on future opera
tons in Cuba.
BY this action the President will not
change his previous policy in regard
to Spain and Cuba in any regard, but
will simply carry it out to its logica!
conclusion, which is q direct and
open threat of active Intervention on the
part of the United States to secure peace
in the island whether BY the independence
of the patriots or by voluntary action on
the part of Spain.
From three different sources this even-
ing the policy partially agreed upon be-
tween Secretary Olney and President
Cleveland was learned, and the reports in
each case tailed with surprising unan-
unity.
A definite and somewhat startling an
nouncement on the Cuban question will
be made to Congress either in. the regular
annual message or in supplementary
communication, as was the case in deal
ing with the Venezuelan question: :
Minister Depuy de LONE OF the Spanish
Legation has been fully advised of the i'm
pending announcement, and he accepts
what is in effect an ultimatum, believing
that Spain will be able TO prevent action
on the part of the United States by the
success of Weyler's operations in Cuba.
The policy adopted is scarcely matter
of debate any longer and unless there
should be some sudden change in the
island, through the success or failure
OF Weyler's campaign. the issue will soon
be sharply drawn between this country
and Spain. :
IN his communication to Congress.
when it shall come. President .Cleve-
land will, in all probability. declare that
during the last year since he COM
municated on the subject there has
been furnished no evidence of the
immediate termination of the, war which
has devastated Cuba and which interferes
so seriously with the commerce of the
United States. He will show that, on the
one hand, the Cubans avoid a direct con
hict, and that, on the other, up to the
present time the Spaniards have been
