THE CUBAN SITUATION.
Startling News That Will Make
Prompt ActiOa Necessary.

WASHINGTON u. c.. Feb. 25-It IA very
likely that Al cmpha'ic outbreak on the
Cuban situation Will shortly take pla'e in
Congress IA Il result OF the transmission OF
the Information called Tor in the res 'lu-
ton which has passed both branches Feb.
II. asking the S:atc department for copies OF
the ports Of our cGnsulS il Cuba showing
the condition Of the reconc mira loeS. ThH
state department has complied this informa-
ton, but will not send it to Congress for scv-
cral days yet. When presented and made pab-
lie, it will be well-nigh impossible to keep
Congress from acting almost Immediately.
The leaders will cndeavor to prevent amy
radical action from being taken, but h 'rrn-
lean task awaits them. To hold the tubln
sympu,hizcrs in check whel these consular
reports are given out is almost out of tn"
question. The great bulk OF the information
in reply to the resolution refrrre, to is
composed of these consular reports
which have been coming in from Cuba. As
long ago rs Mr.. Cieve.and's time it WIS al
legged that ii they could be made public,
nothing could prevent Congress from
forcing his hand. Since then the
actual condition of affairs has grown
steadily worse and subsequent consular
reports have bat reflected mat truth. They
reveal horrible situation, showing that
starvation. ruin and riot are prevalent
among the reconcentradoes on every hani.

PORTLAND, Me-, Feb. GA check for

ter SWEET by the Hon. Frederick L. Rich
ards, president OF the Union Safety Deposit
and Trust company of this city. This com
pany had furnished bonds in the sum OF

of the Portland postoiIlce. and Prcsi-
dent Richards cheek was in full settle
mcnt of shortage discovered in Mr.. Chen
ery's accounts. Mr.. Chenery died ofpneu-
monia, aged 30 years. In point of service
he was the oldest employe of the office. hay
ing begun work there in 1861 as q clerk I'M
der Postmaster Dole. He had been cashier
since 1866. The last inspection of the
cashiers accounts by the government author
tiles was made on Jan. %, 1897, and every
thing was then to all appearances, cor
rect. The cashier had the handling not
only of the receipts of the Portland
Office but the deposits from Il large
number of minor postonlces in western
Maine and eastern New Hampshire. What
the cashier made OF his defalcn-
ton is question that nobody seems able to
answer. He was looked upon rs man OF
exemplary habits and was never considered
cXtravagant in his tastes or mode OF living.
His salary was $500. Many years ago during
the nd ADMINISTRATION Of Postmaster Goddard,
a shortage was found in Cashier Chem
cr's accounts, but he attributed it to care
less bookkeeping, and rs he made up the
shortage, his explanation was allowed to
stand and he was continued IN Office.
