PORTE'S MANIFESTO.
viii Not Expe, Missionaries Who Arc
Blind, Deaf and Dumb.

Washington, April 12.--The Turkish
legation received from the sublime
porte under yesterdays date the fol-
lowing telegram:
1T hns been falsely stated that the
missionaries would be expelled. The
imperial government has not taken,
and does not intend to take any gener-
al measure of expulsion of missionaries
and Catholic priests. Those among
them who attend peacefully to their
business are not and will not be dis
turbed. But, surely, it cannot be the
same for those who by their attitude
try to disturb the order and tranquility
of the country and place themselves in
open hostility towards the laws and
regulations in force in the empire. The
imperial government watchful of the
maintenance of public security has the
duty to send them away from its ter
ritory, and in doing, 1t avails itself of
Il right which nobody in all justice
could contest"

AGAINST that report. and ! believe that

against that report, and believe that
after little further discussion We
could have beaten il on test vote.
whatever may happen, 1 believe
we have heard the hast of the SPAN
sh-Cuban affair SO far as any acuon
by congress is concerned ard II Is but
for all parties that such is the case.
The president will act rs seems to MN
best; no attempt TO pass joint reSolu-
tion could possibly succeed. What the
president may do do not know, but j
have faith in his ability to handle the
subject i'm fair and statesmanlike
fashion"
The future action Of congress de-
pends largely, if not entirely upon the
events that trarspire in Cuba, said
Senator Gray, of Delaware, OF the rec
ognized friends of the presment upon
the floor of the senate. And he con-
tinued, 1.-THE action of the president,
whatever it may be, will, in like man
ner denend unun the trend of events
on that island. If there should be some
great success attending the efforts OF
the insurgents or any other condition
of affairs demanding the attention Of
the congress, l believe congress would
deal with il in the prOuer manner. |

president are. but | feel sure that he
will accept the concurrent resolutions
! passed by congress in their proper
/ spirit, and be guided by the opinion oi

DECLINE To BE QUOTED.

Other senators who declined to be
quoted. spoke freely in private upon
this subject. and the consensus of opin-
ion gathered from senators represent
ing both sides of this subject was that
congress must wait reasonable time
in order to give the president the neces-
sary opportunity to act, before even
considering any future plans. Those
who opposed the passage of the resolu-
tiuns will not say that the president
will ignore them, and those who ia
vored the cause of Cuba most seriously
express the belief that the president
will be controlled by the sentiment of
congress SO strongly set out in the text
Of those resolutions.
