President Mckinley Has Under Con-
sIderatiOn the Adyisability OfSend-
ing a Message to Congress on
the Cuban Question.
IMPORTATION ON SUBJECT CALLED FOR
The Proposed Message, If Sent, Will
Deal with the Feasibility of Fur
nishing Assistance to Suffering
Americans Residing on the
Island of Cuba.

Washington, May 14.-President Nc
Kinley has under earnest consideration
the advisabily of sending message to
congress next week on the Cuban ques-
ton. He is inclined to suggest that
measures be adopted to relieve the dis
tress among American residents in Cuba.
The measure if it goes in will be entirely
pacific. In order to have facts on which
to predicate message, President McKin-
ley has had cablegrams sent to every con
snlar Office in Cuba, asking that each give
exact information of the status of affairs
in his district by telegraph at once. II
was understood today by some members
of the senate committee on foreign rela-
tions, that this information would no
doubt be communicated to the senate,
but whether it is to be accompanied by
message Recommending action, was yet
a matter of doubt. The prospects are
that considerable opposition may develop
in the senate to the proposition for relief
and Senator Burrows of Michigan, said
today: "The distribution of relief is al
most impossible, and the scheme is thor
oughly impracticable.
"How is the citizenship Of people asking
relief to be determined There must be
an investigation of citizenship in the
case of every starving woman and child
who asks relief. We will be prevented
from taking care Of Americans within the
insurgent lines, and cannot relieve dis
tress even in the insurgent hospitals. We
shall simply be helping Spain feed her
hungry people,"
The cabinet met an hour earlier than
usual. The Cuban situation was gone
over in detail, as is shown by the latest
reports from the island. It was an.
nounced at II O'Clock that no message on
the Cuban question will be sent to CON
press on Monday. Whether one will be
sent later in the week is not yet settled.

A SENSATION At MADRID
Oa Account Of the Attitude Of the
United States.
THE SPANISH HAVE BEEN DECEIVED
Minister Mt washinston Has Been
Pessimistic-weyler' Official
Bulletins Evidently Lies.

Paris. September pa dispatch to tho
Temps from Madrid says: The attitude Of
the United States has caused a great sen-
sation at Madrid because opinion has been
lured ON by the pessimistic communication
OF the Spanish minister at Washington
upon the character and duration of the
correct attitude Of the United States, and
that, too, despite several warnings from
Mr.. olney and Mr.. Cleveland's message.
The official bulletins Of Captain General
Weyler have also received too much con-
fidence, when the United States govern
ment was every month receiving from its
consus and special ENJOYS totally differ
ent news. The general impression at San
Sebastian and Madrid is that the Spanish
government will try to drag negotiations
along unless it rejects purely and simply
the good offices OF the United States on
the ground of public opinion, and upon the
further ground thai the opposition would
not permit 1t to tolerate foreign interven-
ton, even though amicable.
