A POSSIBLE CRISIS.
1t Might Come as Result of Demand for
Indemnity from Spain.

Washington, February 26.-War
talk here hinges on the report that the
government officials are considering
what will be the probable outcome of
the demand for indemnity for the de-
struction of the Maine in Spanish wa
tiers. The belief prevails that Spain
will controvert the charge that the
Names destruction was from exterior
causes and will demand that the mat
ter be settled by arbitration. The fear
is entertained that in such an event
the popular Indignation of this coun-
try cannot be restrained and that the
government will be forced to take rad
ical measures.
Senator Foraker. of Ohio declares
the Senate will not wait for the Pres
ident's recommendation if it is found
that Spanish treachery destroyed the
Maine, but will pass a resolution de-
claring hostilities. If Spain demands
arbitration it would be difficult for the
President to refuse The country,
however. is not expect d to entertain
the arbitration idea for a moment
Here is where the crisis would come.
1t will be question whether the Pres
ident could hold the people in check.
Congressman are already making OPP
position to indemnity propositions. A
member of the House from Iowa in
formed the President that not single
member of the Iowa delegation would
support him in a proposal to settle
the Maine affair by an indemnity.
Chairman Boutelle, of the House
Committee on Naval Affairs, to-day re-
ceived a letter from the Secretary of
the Navy. stating that it was found
expedient to place the Minneapolis and
Columbia in commission at once. and
that this would require the enlistment
of at least SEQ men. Authority was
asked of Congress, therefore, for the
department to proceed at once to make
the necessary enlistments Enlist
ments to the number of 1,500 men. it
was suggested. should be authorized.

met Disapproved Of BY at at 49,,
One Member OF the n0use.

Washington, February ~ 26. This
House resumed consideration of the
sundry civil bill to-day Immediately
after the reading of the journal. An
amendment appropriating $S00,000 for
the harbor of Cleveland, Ohio, offered
by Mr.. Burton (Rep., Ohio,) was,
adopted.
Mr.. Lewis (Dem., Wash.,) created
something of a sensation by Offering
the following resolution as an amend
ment:
Resolved, That Congress disap-
proves of Minister Woodford rendering
a banquet to the Spanish cabinet In
behalf of the United States and ex-
pressing the sense that the relations
between Spain and the United States
should, until the inquiry as to the
cause of the Maine disaster be deter
mined, remain only in the formal and
official way demanded by the needs OF
the respective nations"
Mr.. Lewis was proceeding to remark
upon the "ghoulish spectacle" OF MIN
lister Woodford banquetting the Span
ish cabinet while the cabinet was
mourning the loss Of 250 brave sailors
who were the victims OF Spanish hate'
when Mr.. Cannon interposed a point
OF order against the amendment anu
was promptly sustained by the chalr.
Mr.. Lewis attempted to debate the
point of order, saying the amendmens
was certainly pertinent to the para
graph under consideration-which
happened to relate to national ceme-
teries.
81 am opposed" he said TO our
people burying their dead Whlle our our
official representative abroad IS ieaS''

At this point Mr.. Lewis was cut On
and the incident closed
