THE CRISIS APPROACHING.

The Presidents message to
Congress in relation to Spain and
Cuba has been completed and
submitted to his cabinet and by
it approved, and will be presented
to Congress to-day. Secretary
Long in referring to the message
said, "Whle l can say nothing
explicit concerning the details of
the message, | may say that it is
strong, explicit statement, and
one with which congress will be
thoroughly in accord. ''This state
ment enables us to foresee the
general character of the message,
since the temper of congress is so
we'll known. 1t is safe, therefore,
to predict that Mckinley will in
sist upon Cuban independence
and that he will recommend war
measures if necessary to secure
that independence.

THANKS FROM MArANzAs.
Fervent Expressions of Gratitude from tho
People of That City.

Washington, October 22 One of the
most fervent expressions of gratitude
which has yet been uttered by the resi-
dents of any of the Cuban communities
that have fallen under orders of this gov
eminent was made by the people of Ma
tanzas to the officers of the United States
army, Capt. Niles and Major Niskern,
who were charged with the distribution
of relief supplies in the famine stricken
community. The text of the formal reso-
luton of thanks as communicated to the
war department, is as follows:

lief committee desires to fulfil the pleas

ing our fellow creatures redeemed from
this horrors Of famine by the charity of the
great American nation worthily repre-
sentcd by you.
Gentlemen. you have had good oppor-
Matanzas since your arrival. Previous to
it, crowds Of men, women and children
wandered all over the country imploring
charity that we were not able to give and
many were perishing on our streets. Our
hospitals were unable to shelter the home
less and feed the hungry for they were
just as poor and as destitute, and today
what a contrast? Everything seems to
smile. Hunger is checked In its career
of havoc and our hospitals have thrown
their doors open to the homeless doomed
to die In our streets, and beyond this is
the satisfaction Of closing the door OF
crime which misery causes humanity to
fall into. Thus. gentlemen, the relief
you have brought us is both material and
moral. In the name. then, of all that
have been rescued from famine, in the
name of the city Of Matanzas, in the
name of all that is holy and Christian.
we give heartfelt thanks to the people of
America for their timely assistance which
is another link to the schain of love and
gratitude which already binds us to them.
What shall we say Of your individuality
Simply to repeat what is on every lip,
your untiring care of every detail have
caused our admiration. Yor have set be-
fore us a noble example, have fully
identified yourselves with the errand of
mercy to which you have been entrusted
