WASHINGTON, March 16.-Tne fi!ibuster-
ing operations between this country and
Cuba occupied the attention of the oa5i :
net today. Attorney General Mokenna
gave his views on the subject Of per-
hitting the alleged filiibustering steam
ers to clear for Cuban ports W 18th caTgoss
Of arms and munitions of war. gsnsral
discussion followed his remarks The at
torney general has decided not to render
an opinion III the case of the steamer
Dauntess until he can obtain additional
facts relating to this application of her
owners to clear from Jacksonville with
arms and ammunition.
Under ordinary commercial conditions
application would be granted without
question, but the fact that the Dauntless
or any other vessel would be Obliged to
clear for some Cuban port held by the
Spanish, puts new phase OH the matter.
The cargo could not be landed there and
the vessel would be seizsd. This would
make it necessary for the vessel to attempt
to land cargo at some point along the
coast and in orde, to deliver arms and
ammunition to the insurgents armed
force would be necessare.
The knowledge of this raises the
question whether the men necessary to
carry out the plans made for filibuster-
ing vessel would not cOnstituta an armed
expedition, clear violation of law. The
attorney general will nave to decide
whether The force to be taken on the
Dauntless Is an armed expedition, within
tue meaning of the law.
Permission was given steamer Com mo-
dore to clear for Cuban port with arms
aud munitions of wnr, but the vessel was
wrecked tefors reaching the Cuban
coast.

with dissolution. The Rev. DR.. Edwin
@. Bolles, pastor for 10 years, has handed
in his resignation to the trustees bnt
they denied last night that they had re-
csived it.
rbe troubles seem to have originated
from the proposed removal Of the Church

This church has sold its property in 5th
avenue. and, Is now building magniti-
cent new cil1rsh at the corner of 10th
street and Central Park west. at an ex-
psnditure of $500, 000 liz is thought that
1t will be completed in the autumn,
The two churches are of the same de-
nomination and it Is feared that the
proximity Of TIE new church will prove
detrimental to the growth of the Church
Of the Eternal Hope. Although no form
al proposition has been made to consoli-
date the two churches, the trustees adm it
that there Is a movement on foot tending
toward ION an agreement.

resignation from the pulpit last Sunday,
