negotiations with Spain ms TO its warfare

No message In recent years, not even
that OF President Cleveland. or Venezuela,
or President Harrison. on Chile, caused
such widespread and intense interest No
message was ever listened to with closer

disappointment among those who wanted
Cuban independence and immediate re-
prisal upon Spain for the destruction Of
the Maine. For a long time large ma
1orty IN both houfes have fayosrd rccog-
milton OF the independence OF Cuba; for
more than two years, as voiced In resoiu-
tons passed by congress, the recognition
Of belIigerency has been sought. Both OF
these propositions were antagonized In the
message. and consequently Ia this regard
the message did not accord with the ma
jority sentiment. The message left con-
gross very much al sea because OF the dis
arrangement In views between IL and tne
executive. which are obstacles hard to sur
mount. unless, as now seems possible,
congress sees It's c0tirke TO be In accord
with the presidents recommendation.
II Is believed that the president would
have been authorized TO intervene with the
