has asked and obtained
from Congress $4,000 to succor American cti.
zens in distress.
Third, the President has sent his own Special
Agent to Cuba to see and report to him person
ally what is the state of things.
1t may be set down as certain that the Presi-
dent intends to have this controversy over
Cuba settled, and settled with honor to this
Government. He intends to bring this result
about by peaceable methods
He feels that the first great duty is to our
own people, and that our own distress at homo
should be aleviated. The suffering is not all
in Cuba. We have three millions of people in
the United States unemployed. lie feels sure
that business cannot revive till this Tariff egs.
lation is settled and the Treasury put on sol
vent basis. We are to-day bankrupt because
our National income does not equal our neces-
sary expenses. How can we undertake to en-
force any demands upon foreign nation in
such a condition, unless We are ready to start
in at once with call for more loans by the
sale of bonds aud an increase in the National
debt? The situation is SO embarrassing that the
Tariff bill is forced upon the Administration

How does the President intend TO proceed
That depends upon circumstances. 1t depends
somewhat upon what Commissioner Calhoun
may report. perhaps. but it depends more on
Spain. 1t is certain that peaceful methods will
first be exhausted Suppose the President
should say to the Spanish Government: " You
cannot apparently conquer your rebellions prov
ince; why not let her go and fix price which
her people eau pay for their freedom? Make
1t reasonable" And to the Cubans he would say:
Try to adjust this matter. and we will help
you, perhaps guarantee your bonds to raise the
money! Suppose, now, Spain says" No." Then
he may suggest that autonomy OF genuine
kind. such as Canada enjoys. be granted; that
the troops be Withdrawn and the Captain
General stripped Of despotic power, and Cuba
he given control Of its own finances and tariff
and navigation laws
Suppose Spain should refuse even this. Then
we may expect the President to say We'll,
then. Gen. Wey ler's edict, by which people
taken from their farms aud plantations in the
country. and hudded into the towns to die of
starvation and pcstilence. must be- revoked"
This would be demanded in the name of
humanity, ana DeC1uSe we were not longer
willing to suffer the interruption to commerce
and trade that results from this unnatural
condition. He would say, If you will carry on
war still, you must do it according to the laws
of civilized nations" Suppose, again, that
Spain should say: Mind your own business;
we will do as we please" Then the Admins
tration might be expected to say Having re-
jected our good offices, there is but one thing
left. We will intervene and stop this dcvas-
tation by force" The American fleet would
be sent to Havana to enforce this last resort.
Discussing the question of belligerency, the
same authority said that the Administration
was alive to many Disadvantages connected
with this method of proceeding. In the first
place, it would not do the Cubans any good.
There was no port in their possession. They
had no navy and no treasury. Under modern
international law. the strict enforcement of
neutrality went with recognition Of beliger-
ency. They could not equip war ships in a
neutral port, nor enlist and arm men, any more
than now. We made England pay for the Ala
bama's depredations, and admit herself in the

deed barely escaped outspoken tokens Of disap-
proval. Senator Foraker, of Ohio, made the
most important contribution to tho debate, de-
manding Intervention AS the only honorable
course for this country. He laid before the
Senate important correspondence scared at

Consul-General Lees report as to the suffer
lngs of American citizens was also read. SEN
ators Vest, of Missouri, and Lindsay, of Ken
lucky, demanded that war ships be sent at
once to Cuba when Mr.. Foraker announced
that the State Department desired the names
of Consuls sending information Kept secret, for
fear of violence.
:" Has our Government fallen so low that it
must keep the names of its Consuls secret to
save them from assassination 2" roared the ex-
citablc and drastic Senator from Missouri.
But no one answered
pleasant surprise of the day was a new
orator, who came from the far West, Senator
Cannon, of Utah. He demanded q protectorate
over Cuba. He declared he was lingo, and
that all the rest Of the people of the United
States, with the exception of few million
aires, a few editors, and few Senator'S. were
also
Mr. Cannon's speech was an Grafton. 1t was
one of the most finished and notable features
of the debate. His voice is musical and clear,
swelling into resonant tones that charmed
his audience. His rhetoric was fanltness, his
gestures graceful, aud, in short, in single
sentence, he charmed his audience and held it
spelbound to the end. In future he will
always command attention when he may rise
to speak on any topic.

THE MILK IN THE House concnrring IN
CoCoANUT. the previous action of
the Senate. and the passage by the Senate OF
the joint resolution to recognize the beliIger-
ency of Cuba by an overwhelming majority
and the refusal of the House to put this reso-
luton on as an amendment to the food propo'
stion.
The causes of the apparently anomalous stu
alton were various The voting of the money
to provide food was unanimous. The struggle
came upon the other proposition. The Senate
was the storm center. Several Republicans OPP
posed the belligercrcy resolution because they
did not want to embarrass the President in any
pending negotiations. Other Republicans and
some Democrats voted in the negative, in keep
ing with their course for the past two years.
They compose the so-called pro. Spanish party in
the Senate. At their head stands by common
consent, Mr.. Hale. of Maine. 1t is not charged
that actual love of Spain actuates these SEN
ators. but they represent, indirectly, vast sugar
interests in Cuba. Great plantations and sugar
mills owned by Americans in the Eastern
States have been burned by one or the other of
the combatants. They want pay from Spain
for these losses They fear these interests will
be put in jeopardy by Cuban recognition. They
do not trust the insurgents ability to SETTLE or
perhaps suspect their willingness to do SO. At
any rate. this interest is opposed to change of
Government in Cuba.
Others who are close to the Administration.
like Senators Hanna Spooner, and Burrows,
undoubtedly opposed the belligerency propo-
sition because the President is not ready and
they not willing to follow ex-Confed
crate Southern Senator to hurry matters which
they trust in the hands of Mckinley and Sec
rotary of State John Sherman
1t was plain that tho DEMOCRATS thought they
saw political advantage in pushing things.
and they joined the ardent friends of Cuba on
the Republican side. who refuse to wait longer
for action Of some Sort and think the time is
ripe for action. Such were the differences of
motive 30 far as appeared to the observer.
In the House the game was politics on
tremendous SCALE pure and simple. Bailey, Of
Texas, forced the fighting 10 make the Republic
cans appear to take the opposite ground from last

and followed the leaders, voting down Bailey's
