HAMPER WITH LEES MAIL.
Spanish Officials Send His Letters to
 General Blanco.

Key West, Fla, March 27.-Informa- tion comes from Havana that General Lees mail has been frequently tam pered with of late. The latest instance involved letter which purported to come from New York, but which never saw the New York postoffice.
 General Lee received the envelope torn open, with this inscription oD the back:
 Received from New York in the present condition.".
 It had been taken to the palace, op- ened, read and then sent to General Lee.
 Other consuls in Cuba have had sim liar experiences. Nearly every Span ish official in Sagua reads Consul Barker's letters before he himself gets a look at them.
 The English consul's mail was tam- pered with few times, but protest went up to General B1anco that was effective, and the practice was stopped

NEW WAR INVENTION.
Dangerous Aerial Torpedo Boat to Be
 Made of Aluminium.

Sedalia, Mo-, March 27-Thomas J. Brown, dispatcher of the Missouri Pacific at this place, and who was re- gently granted a patent on an aerial torpedo boat, received a letter today from Captain J. c. Ayres, recorder of the board of ordnance and fortifica- tions of the war department. Captain Ayres asked MT. Brown to forward to him at once the drawings and plans of his boat and that they would be treated as confidential.
 This will be done at once. Mr. Brown claims that he has invented an aerial torpedo boat, to be built out of aluminium, which can sail from New York to Madrid or Havana and carry sufficient high explosives to be dropped on either city to completely destroy it, while a ship would be at it's mercy
 The cost of the boat would be $1O,- 900, and it would require but a few weeks in it's construction. He has a sample boat, but his scheme is a secret

THE HOUSE WILL BE CROWDED
But There Will Be No Outburst of
 Oratory Today.

Washington, March 27.-The largest crowd which has attended a session of congress in years is expected at the capitol tomorrow when the official re- port of the board of inquiry on the Maine disaster will be given to the country. Extra instructions have been issued to the attendants and admis- sion to the reserved galleries will be strictly by card. Members of the house await the report with the same feverish anxiety the public manifests and there are not likely to be dozen vacant seats on the floor. The scene when the report is read will probably be intensely dramatic, but those who go to the capitol tomorrow expecting to see it's presentation followed by a wild furor of oratory probably will be sorely disappointed.
 The report and the accompanying message will be brief, and after being read will be referred to the committee on foreign affairs without debate. Once in the committee the findings of the board will remain there until a report is made by the committee which would certainly not be until Spain's explanation and position are made known to the administration. In the meantime the presentation of the main issue between Spain and the United States is likely to throw the disaster with which the administra- tion means to deal with as a separate and distinct issue, into the back ground as subject for future settle ment unless Spain should take po- sition not anticipated, which would compel immediate action.
 On Tuesday the president will prob ably transmit message asking for an appropriation to relieve the starvation in Cuba

WHALEBACKs IN THE NAVY.
May Be Used in Fleet Operations Firs!
 as Freight Carriers.

St. Louis, March 27.-Captain Alex McDougall, manager of the American Steel Barge company, has returned from Washington, where he went to consult with government authorities concerning the use of war vessels by the war department. Captain Me- Dougall acknowledged today that his company has been negotiating with the government to furnish wha1ebacks for use as warships. He said, how ever, that at present it appeared as though the boats would be employed only as coarse freight carriers.
 Among the plans under discussion, however, is one contemplating the use of a warship of the whaleback type as designed by Captain McDougall sev- eral years ago. The ship can be part ly submerged, leaving only a revolving turret above water and in this rapid firing guns are placed. While float ing on the surface, the boat is so ar ranged that a gun can be used in the how

A SUNDAY SESSION.
An Informal Meeting of the Cabinet
 Yesterday.

Washington, March 27.-The presi- dent saw the members of the cabinet at the White House today. They dropped in one by one until those present included Secretaries Bliss, Alger, Gage and Attorney-General Griggs. With them also was Assistant Secretary Day, who presumably had some dispatches to show the president. The gathering was not a special cabi- net meeting in the sense that the term talk between the president and his ad- visers concerning matters on which he desired to consult.
 The Cuban question and the report topics discussed, but so far as could be ascertained nothing conclusive was determined, one of the members of the cabinet saying subsequently, that there was nothing new or startling in the situation. The presence of Judge Day would infer that there were advices from Minister Woodford, but further than an acknowledgement that con- munication is in progress between the state department and the minister, nothing could be ascertained.
 At the state, war and navy depart ments there was little semblance of the Sabbath. Chiefs of bureaus, clerks, messengers and telegraph op- at nhoh since the days of the late war have so many officials gathered at the war and navy departments on Sunday. The dispatches that came over night re- garding the movements of ships and other matters were received, and to as many of them as required prompt an swers replies were formulated.

Extra Orders Regarding the

The Senate will ACcade Though im- patienuy to the Presidents Re- quest to Allow h'rn Time to Pre- pare a Policy.

Washington, March 27.-The inn portant event of the week in the sen- ate will be the reception of the presi- dents message transmitting the report of the Maine inquiry, which is expected on Monday. The present understand to the committee on foreign relations and will be sent to the printer without being read or more than incidentally referred to, and that after this noth- ing more will be said concerning it until the committee shall have had a reasonable opportunity to consider it or until some other communication may be received from the president on the Cuban question.
 There has been general appeal from the administration to the senate to avoid un- due agitation on the Cuban question until the president can have an op- portunity to formulate policy and the senate appears quite disposed to comply with the request. Still there is no doubt that the senate is growing restive under the delay. Senator Money expects to make speech to- morrow on the line of those of Sen ators Proctor, Gallinger and Thurston, based upon his observations in Cuba. What further discussion there may be during the week on the Cuban situa- ton will depend largely upon the fu- ture. It is useless to discuss proba- bilities.

A BIG SECRET ORDER.
AMERICAN IMPERTINENCE.
German Neutrality, but Sympathy
 With Spain.

London, March PA dispatch to the Observer from Berlin says the i'm mlnent danger of war between the United States and Spain is the absorb ing topic of discussion. Until recently the political and financial world re- fused to credit the probability of a war, but the report of the Maine com
 mission dissipated this skepticism. There is great depression on the bourse today. The German opinion may be summarized by saying that it refused to believe that mine was exploded. It regards the case as one of negli-
