CABINET MEETING CALLED.

Administration Thinks the Situation Sc
rious Enough for u Special Conference.
New York, March "A journal spe-
cial from Washington says: The Span
ish-American situation growing out of
the reports of the riots in Barcelona
and other cities in Spain was regarded
SO serious by the President that. he de-
cidcd to convene a special meeting of
the cabinet Sunday night. though the
call was issued under the guise of u din
ner at Secretary Olney's home. Secrc-
tary Olney was promptly advised of the
outbreaks in Madrid, Barcelona and
other places in Spain by Minister lay
lor and the American consuls. H..
hastened to the white house and laid
before the president all the dispatches
he had received.
Secretary Herbert was sent .:or and
consulted with regard to the prompt
dispatch of naval vessels to the Gulf
const in the event such a step should
become necessary. The secretary re-
rlied that the government has effective
hips ready for rctive ser"ice sufficient
for any purpose of emergency.
Secretary Olney was directed Ey the
president to cable Immediately 20 Min

rotary Olney suggested that the 2resi-
dent come to his residence ct 1880

RESENTMENT. IN WASHINGTON.
Spanish Government Must Make SPEEDY
and Ample Apology.

Spanish Government Must Mako . Speedy
and Ample Apology.
Chicago, March 2.-The Tribune's
Washington special says: "Apologize
OR fight" That is the sentiment among
senators, representatives and govern
uent officials. The mobs in Spain have
freed Cuba, beyond the shadow OF Il
doubt, and in all probability are in Il
fair way to receive thrashing from
Uncle Sam in addition. War talk. which
was suppressed before, is openly hearf!
now. The Spanish ministry was al
ready tottering. Spain is on the verg:.
Of bankruptcy, and cannot afford to
fight. But the mob is supreme and the
belief here is general that war between
this country and Spain can hardly he
averted.
It is generally believed that the
Spanish prime minister has already
cabled disavowal Of the mob violence
at Barcelona. but it is also believed the
excitable 10Th century Sponiards cam
not longer conceal their hatred for he
United States, and that they themselves
will provoke the conflict.
From Another Source.
Washington. March 2.-lntense in
,crest conferred here in the dispatches
showing the demonstrative feelings. ex-
listing in Spain against the Americans
regarding the Cuban question and the
statement that the government is in
creasing it's naval force. Copsec of the
press dispatches were shown to public
men interested in the question. No
surprise was expressed at dcm.nstra-
tions which have occurred; in fact.
such were expected. The speeches in
the senate, extracts OF which have no
doubt been published in the Spanish
papers, have had their influence On the
masses of the people and have thrown
them in an unfriendly move against
United States officials. The whole mat
ter is regarded here simply as 'hat OF
mob violence, of which the Spanish gov
ernment has not in any manner been
responsible. j.; - trl .I4 #}
Apology or Reparation.
The violation of the consulate of the
United States at Barcelona makes a dis
avowal necessary by Spain, and the
United States probably will inquire Of
the Spanish government what amends
will be made. Spain may be expected
to make an expression of genuine re
greet or proper explanation for the un'
fortunate occurrence and possibly rep
aration for the damage done. This, at
least, is the opinion of Chairman Hit,
of the house committee OH: foreign at
fairs, who from his actual experience
in diplomatic usages is well qualified to
say what the requirements of interna-
tional law and custom are in such
cases.
MIR. Hit is confident that the att;
tude of our own government will be one
of great caution at this juncture, and it
is not probable that any act or express
sion that may emanatc from it will add
to the difficulty of a peaceable and hon
orable settlement of the trouble. The
danger to be apprehended in his mind
is solely IN some incorporate utterances
in congress that may add to the excite
ment and precipitnte u collision unnec-
essarily.

concurrent resolutions in the house.
The first vote in the house was on q

Mr.. Hit, in calling up the Cuban
resolutions did not offer the last resolu'

The resolutions were adopted by the
house by q vote of 263 to 16. I.
They were made substitute for the
resolutions passed the senate, which
will bring about a conference between
the two bodies.

FRANTIC ITALIAN DEPUTIES.
Htld Scenes In the Chamber Nearly Lead
to q Battle.

TO q hattie.
ROME, ITALY, Dec. 1O.-Tnere was a
violent scene in the Cham Der of Deputies
growing out of an attack made upon Gen.
eraI Mocenna, ex-Minister of War. in the
comforting of decorations upon officers and
others who took part in the recent disas-
trous Ably ssinian CAM aign.
Gene raj Mocenna attempted to defend
his action, but his voice was drowned in a
food of yells and boots and epithets. The
Socialist mem bers were particularly vio-
lent against the ex-Minister of War. The
President of the Cham Der. assisted by the
other officials, had the greatest difficulty
in preventing an exhibition of fsticuffs.
The uproar became so great that the
President concluded that the only way to
restore order was to suspend the sitting,
which he accordingly did.
LONDON, ENG, Dec. 10.-The Rome
correspondent of the TELEGRAPH explains
to-day's proceedings in the Chamber of
Deputies.
He says the anger aroused by the I'M
earthing, by a special com mittee, of grave
financial abuses in several of the bureaus
during the Crispi regime still smolders,
and requires little to fan it into a flame.
He adds that even the funds that were
subs cribed for the benefit of the earth
quake sufferers in Calabria were largely
diverted from the use to which the sub
used for political purposes.
An instance of crooked accounts is given
in the Ministry of Commerce, which
passed items of 5000 lire for pins and
10000 lire for carpets. 1t seems to be the
policy of Prime Minister di Rudini to
temporarily suppress the scandals while
legislative business is forwarded.

CLAIMS OF VENEZUELA.
Senior Thomas Declares That the South
ern Republic Is Not FGiry Treated
in the New Treaty

NEW YORK, n. Y, Dec. 10-A special
cable to the Herald from Caracas, Vene-
zueIa. saws: Senior Andrade, Minister to
the United States, and Mr.. Storrow, coun-
sci for the Government in the boundary
controversy, will remain here for the
present.
The official reason for this change of
programme is that the documents relat-
ing to the question. including the memo
randa upon which treaty between this
country and Great Britain will be based i,
are in an incomplete state. This reason,
however, is regarded by the public as e1-
planning only half the situation.
1t is said that the Minister to the United
States and the Venezuelan Consul are to
await papers of very important char
acter.
There is, in fact, a strong feeling IN the
popular mind agains. excluding Vene-
zueIa from direct presentation on the
;tration tribunal which will be form ed
to ad just the boundary between Venezuela
and British Guiana.
This sentiment has been mentioned in a
letter to Senior Tholmas, formerly Minis
ter to Great Britain. The words of Senior
Tholmas have created sensation. He
says the solution of the Anglo-VeneZuelan
imbroglio proposed by the United States
is entirely inadequate to meet the main
points at issue and does not fulfill the
promises originally made to the Govern
ment of Venezuela.
Senior Tholmas says further that the
heads of the proposed treaty show ex-
clusively that it is constructed wholly
upon a combination of Anglo American
interests. In not recogn zing Venezuela
as sovereign state, Senior Tho!mas de-
clares the United States and Great Britain
insult the southern republic, and he con-
cludes with the statement that it would be
far better for Venezuela to lose all forcibly
than to agree to the present terms of the

the farmer than two that litter only

ness for the SOW that produces young
pigs but once year is an Improbable
one to the owner. They will generally
eat up all the profits her litter will
make. Spring pigs are all right for
those who are raising only for home
use, but the man who raises pigs for

pigs as well. The former will pay
him more than the latter. IL this is

experiment, and count the cost of
everything. OF course this presup.
poses good supply of winter fodder.
Wa cannot raise any winter animals
without preparing beforehand all the
right food they will need.
The pigs that come in September
should be reared carefully from the
SOW, and then turned loose into the

fully. Keep their systems open by
supplying them with all the roots,
pumpkins and sweet corn they can
eat. AS the cool nights come on see
that the young pigs are properly sta

will not get chilled through. Early
in the morning turn them loose again
in the grass field, keeping up this
practice so long as the grass IS green
and fit to eat. Give them plenty of
fresh water. and make them generally
comfortable.
The result of this treatment is that
they develop wonderfully good diges.
