No IntimatiOn Received of Joint Ac-
ton OF the Powers.

uOn on the Powers.
WASHINGTON, April 15.-The Cabinet
meeting to-day was devoted to a general
discussion Of the Cuban situation, but with
out anything of Importance resulting there
from. The government has received no in
timation of preparation of any note on the
part of the powers, and members of the
Cabinet do not think the effort obviously
making by Spain to concentrate the powers
in her favor will result in their agreeing on
any particular line of action. The present
position of the administration is that of
awaiting congressional action, without at
tempting to influence it or postpone its deci-
sion. The President, it can be stated is not
at all likely to veto any resolution that
Congress may adopt on the Cuban question.
The administration does not believe Con-
gress will pass g resolution for the recOgni-
ton of independence of the insurgents. 1t
is said. however, that the President might
regard 1t as an encroachment on his pre-
negative. the Constitution clearly making it
the duty of the executive to recognize the
independence OF nation. AT the same time
the Cabinet has not discussed the course to
be pursued in the event of congressional
declaration for independence.
Considerable of the time of the meeting
was devoted to discussion of details of the
work the army and navy would be called on
to perform in the event of war. 1t was said
by one Cabinet member that the militia of
the several States are not likely TO be called
upon Tor any concentration at given point
is waiting earnestly for some action by
Congress so as TO determine just what to
do There was some talk also concerning
the emergency fund of $50,O00000, which has
said there will not likely be a call for more
money unless war is assured.
