TENNESSEE STATE NEWS
A Novel Case.

A case of selling whisky without
license which attracted great deal of
attention at the time it came up has
been finally settled and dropped from
the court calendar at jackson. 1t is
the case of r. P. Blalock. He was in
dicted at the last term of the Federal
court. His attorneys secured con-
tlnuance and the case would have come
up at the next term had it not been
settled on another basis than a trial.
Blalocz was charged with having sold
whisky on a train while running
through the State of Tennessee from
Mobile, Ala, to Nashville during the
time of the Centennial. The train was
n special bearing large number of ex-
soldiers, who were going to the Cen
tennial to attend a reunion. Blalock
furnished refreshments for the ex-
cursionists, and it was charged that he
gave them liquid refreshments Of a very
exhilarating kind. A man named
Paludy, employed by Blaloclz, dispensed
the refreshments on the train, and he,
too, was indicted. At his trial he was
convicted and served sixty days in
the Shelby county Jail as a Federal
prisoner. Capt. c.. B. Simonton, the
United States district attorney, was
notified to retire the case from the
calendar, as Blalocl1 had paid the costs
to the internal revenue collector. The
case has occasioned much correspond
ence between the departments of JUS
tice and revenue.

THE RESOLUTION DISCUSSED.
The Madrid Liberal Discusses che ResOIu-
tiOn Adopted by the Senate
Saturday Night.

MADRID, April 1s.-The Liberal this
morning reproduces verbatim the
United States senate's Cuban resolu-
ton. Commenting upon the resolution,
the Liberal says that it is not fright
ened by its reality, though it does not
support the rumors in official circles
that the proceedings at Washington
are a cloak to gain time for further
negotiations between the pope and the
powers
The Liberal adds: ''Such rumors are
dangerous, as they lead to popular dis
content. SaThe truth is a conflict is GER
tain. President Mckinley is am bilious
ly following deliberate plan, and the
powers are too jealous of one another
to interfere, though they may be driven
to suppress hostilities should their self
interests be endangered. Spain has no
allies and must protect her honor. Let
the government see that it be united

WASHINGTON, April 1S.-Attorney-
General Griggs, Secretary Long, Sec
retary Sherman and AsSistant-Secre-
tary Day had an hour conference with
the president. The purpose of the
meeting was not disclosed, but it is be-
ieved it had special re eference to the
Cuban resolutions pending before con-
gress. Members of the cabinet
decline to discuss what will be the
final action upon the report of the con-
ference committee, or what course the
president will pursue in the event that
the clause recogn zing the independ
ence of the Cuban republic, as it ap
pears in the senate resolution, is re-
tanned. From other reliable sources,
however, it is learned that in all prob
ability the president will return the
resolution without his approval. This,
it is said, he will be compelled to do in
order to maintain the prerogaive he
holds is clearly his under the consti-
ton. Up to this time nothing has
been done in the way of formulating
an ultimatum to Spain, nor has any
thing been received from Ministcr
Woodford, or the other sources
which may in any way change
the situation. No one in of.
fetal circles doubts that d
hostile resolution will be passed by
congress within the next day or two,
and war almost certainly will follow,
Whether the presidents veto, in case
such action on his part was made neces.
sary, :yould seriously delay matters can
not, with any certainty, be foretold.

The State Gets Liberal Terms.

State Treasurer Craig, who has just
returned from New York, says the Mu-
tual Life Insurance Company, from
which the State has been borrowing
money to meet its urgent obligations,
has agreed to renew the note for $780,
900 at per cent for a period of six or
eight months, at the option of the
State. Mr.. Craig considers this most
liberal arrangement, especially when
money is commanding from 6 to PEI
cent on time paper, with United States
government bonds and other good col
lateral. The condition of this renewal
is that if money is bringing less rate
than per cent when the note falls due,
about April 25, the State is to have the
advantage of any decreased rate, but
should the rate be more, the State will
not have to pay any additional per cent.
In other words, per cent is the maxi.
mum rate.
