PROCTOR TELLS
OF the Situation as IL Exlsts--RepUrI
to Be Carefully G1srded--BIan-
cos EIoquenee--NOtes.

Washington, March 1.-THE signi-
ficant incident of the day is the
speech af Senator Proctor of Yer
mont. He went to Cuba as the agent
of Mckinley to look into the situa-
ton there. He said when he made
the trip that it was one of pleasure.
His speech declared that he went to
the hospitals and most destitute pro-
vinces, where he witnessed starvation
as no tongue could depict it. In
fact, his trip of pleasure seems to
have consisted entirely of looking on
the dying and the dead. Yesterday
he called on the president, having
arrived in the city no more than five
hours before. There was a counsul
of three or four hours, and of course
he told the president all he had seen,
as he had been sent to the Island to
make report. This morning he went
again TO the White House and was
closeted again with the chief execu-
tive for an hour. Thence he went to
the capitol and took the floor and
made his speech, which every one
here believes had been submitted to
the president.
From many points of view the
statement was remarkable. 1t had
evidently been most carefully pre-
pared. Every element of sensation
alism had been studiously eliminated
from it and, except 30 far as the facts
recited were sensational, it bore not
the slightest evidence of an effort to
arouse the public mind, already
keenly alive to the condition of af-
fairs on the island
Not one man in eithe- branch of
congress tonight, after Proctor's
speech, doubts the intention of Nc
Kinley IN ten days to say that we can
not submit to the condition of affairs
existing at our doors.

REPORT WAS SENT.

REEOh1 WAS BENT.
Boston, Mass, March IA special
to the Globe says:
1T is learned tonight that special
report of the work of the court of in
quiry has been sent to Washington.
"This is not the report and findings
of the court, which have not been
agreed upon, but is in the nature of
a communication for the use of the
president, which he may or may not
make public as he sees fit.
"In any event it will prepare the
president for what the board will re-
port and enable him to take measures
accordingly, as the court will find
that the Maine was blown up from
the outside.
The full report, it is thought, will
not be formulated and in the hands
of the secretary of the navy for some
days yet"
