w ASn1N01ONs JUuc ILL pursuing q
policy looking to the complete independ-

the cordial cooperation Of every mem
Der Of his cabinet. The president pro-
poses to induce Spain to pacifcally &C.

Spanish minister is fully advised of

his government.
Will Support the President.
At the cabinet meeting on Friday last
it was suggested by two Of the members
of the cabinet that in the event of war
it would be necessary to issue bonds,
and that this power would have to be
secured from the congress, where the
silver senator's might block the way by
demanding the issue of silver bonds.
This matter was fully considered, and
on Saturday the president communi-
Gated with leading silver Republican
senator, who sent back word: "Tell
the president that the silver senators
are as patriotic as ever, and will do
nothing in such an emergency to ham
per him. We are not only patriotic,
but we know enough Of politics to know
that the people of this country would
condemn us if we should pursue such q
course in such an emergency. It would
mean the doom of the silver cause if
we should undertake to stand in the
way of public opinion at sucha time
Special Message Likely.
It was stated at the White House dur
ing the afternoon by a senator who had
conversed with the president that the
report of Judge Calhoun is expected
early this week, and that the president
does not intend to take final action in
the development of his policy until he
receives that report. Consul General
Lee was directed to show Judge Cal
houn the copy of his recent report, and
also to give him data concern
ing later developments in Havana,
in order that the important report Of
Calhoun may be an up-to-date docu-
ment, upon which the president may
act, and which he may ae able to lay
before both houses of congress in a
special message on the all-engrossing
topic. No doubt is expressed in any
quarter concerning the determination Of
the president to bring to close the
president condition Of affairs in Cuba.

MARQUETTE, Mich, Aug. 2. Land
Commissioner Binger Hermann has sent
back to the Marquette land Office the
contest between tho Michigan Land and
Iron company aud the settlerA This
will cause an open court contest for 3d..
900 acres Of land, and may jeopardise
the title to nearly ten times that much.
The land claimed by the Michigan Land
and Iron company - the old Marquette.
Houghton and Ontonagop land grant,
which was given to aid tho construction
Of . line from Marquette to Ontonagon
in 1851. 1t consists Of 485, 600 acres.
Since passing to the new corporation its
title has been in dispute, and settlers
have squatted on 5000 acres Of the best
homesteads, The company fled an APP
plication for patents covering swamp,
timber and mineral lands. The COM
missioner's action in granting an open
hearing in the land Office requires all
the settlers to be notified, and the COM
pany will have to prove in. open court
that it comes under the railroad grant
eonfirmatory act passed in 1877. The
settlers say it will be impossible to do
this, and are rejoicing in their victory.
