THAT CUBAN RESOLUTION.
MANY SENATORS SAY OLNEYS
CONTENTION IS INTENABLE.
Some Talk Of Passage Of the Cameron Reso.
iution Over Presidents Veto.

Cincinnati. Dec. 1.-THE Commercial
Tribune prints the opinions of several
senator's on the question raised by Sec
retary OF State olney In regard to power
OF congress to recognize the indepen-
dence of Cuba
Senator pavs says: Il think that Mr.
Olney's position Is untenable. In m.
opinion. congress has the power by sta,
Ute or by joint resolution to recogniz
the independence Of Cuba. II the pres
dent approves the measure there can, o.
course. be no controversy. If he disap
proves IL. and 1t Is passed over his veto.
il becomes law as effectually as If H.
had approved 1t, and his duty to execut,
II is equally imperative in either case"
Senator Sherman's views are as fol-
lows: There is no foundation for the
statement that congress may not, If 1t
will. recognize the independence of new
nation, nor do 1 think Mr.. Onley con-
tests it, but he thinks the matter ought
TO come from the president. If. however,
congress should pass resolution, and
the president should veto 1t. II can be
passed by a two-thirds vote of each
house, and would become a law which
the president must respect and obey"
Senator Daniels of Virginia also dis
agrees with Mr.. Olney.
