Rsvievs the Course OF Spain und VIII
Make Some Recommendstious.
WASHINGTON, April 5.-The president
has completed his Cuban message and
It will be presented to congress on
Wednesday. Secretary Long after the
special cabinet meeting last night auth
thorized the Associated Press to make
this statement.
The message, which is in itself long.
will not be accompanied by the consular
reports dealing with the state of affairs
in Cuba These will 60 to the commit
tee on foreign relations of the senate
for their private information and will
not be made public just now. The
diplomatic correspondence between the
United States and Spain will not be
submitted at present.
The cabinet meeting lasted from 8
O'Clock until after ii and was devoted
entirely to the careful reading and dis
cussion Of the presidents draft of his
message. Every member OF the cabinet
was present. The document was gone
over point by point and met with the
approval of the cabinet in every ma
terial respect. The only changes made
were in q few points of verbiage.
Long Acts as Spokesman.
Secretary Long apparently had been
deputed as spokesman for the meeting
and gave the above brief statement. As
to the character of the message he re-
fused to speak. 1t was learned from
other sources, however, that the mes
sage is in part q review of Spain's
course in the present and previous wars
in Cuba. That it will contain some
definite recommendations may he in
ferred from the remark of one member !:
'.While I can say nothing explicit con-
cerning the details of the message" "
said he, 81 may say that it is a'strong,
explicit statement and one with which
congress will he thoroughly in accord. +"
It was suggested that congress was
pretty thoroughly in accord with the
Foraker resolution, but nothing more
explicit could he obtained.
1t is understood that while the con-
sular reports on Cuba are withheld from
the public at present, out of regard for
their authors who are still inlCuba. that
their publication is not deemed essen
tial by tfr cabinet. One member in
discussing this point said: "They con-
tain only information which has by
this time been quite thoroughly pre-
.e.tea tn the nnblic from other sources {"
From the fact that tic diplomatic
correspondence is not presented with
the message, it is inferred that its main
features are touched upon in the mes
sage itself, whether in the form of ex-
tracts. or merely in substance.

Rear Admiral Dewey has done him
self proud in the Philippines and earn
ed for himself the deserving title Of
Rear Admiral
This store is also anxious to earn
a deserving title from the public; a
title Of merit, that carries with it the
name of having meritorious goods at

In order to do this it is necessary
to be more than careful in the selec-
lions of gOods-be Notwithstanding
what the public tastes are we have used
the precaution to import only f1rst-class
qualities in desings and materials such
as are salable in the best markets of
the world. No dead stock is wanted
or bought by us, no matter what the
inducements. Still goods will some
times accumulate faster than antici-
pated-they must be disposed Of even

now-sacrifcing few dollars-you de-
rive the benefit.

the renovation sale-yOu will agree
