Stanley this morning decided on the
motion for an injunction bond that
the issuance of a temporary iniunc-

to the bill. They are responsive
mainly to the avcrments that the use

Spain to he Driven From the Western
Seas-President's Message Delayed
From Fear of Slaughter.

War is certain. All Americans
have been ordered to leave Cuba.
Consul General Lee has been directed
to charter any available vessels to
bring them away. Only the fear that
the Spa.iards wiz massacre Ameri-
cans on the first news of a declaration
of war restraints the President He is
Withholding his message to Congress
to enable them to leave Havana.
His message was to have been sent
to Congress Wednesday morning. the
9th of April. but advices from Wash
ington after noon that day state pos
itively that it is being withheld sole
ly to avoid slaughter.
The flying squardon under COM
mand of Commodore Schley has been
ordered to sail for the Canaries pre-
liminary to a decisive blow ut the
sea power of Spain.
Spanish per cent bonds have gone
down from 40 to 4T3s.
Congress stands ready to supper;
the president with war appropria-
tion of S10O.OOO.OOO.
The tone and substance of the Pres
ident's message has been given out
through unofficial sources. 1t will say
that the failure of all attempts on the
part of the friendly powers to induce
Spain to acknowledge her defeat in
Cuba and to end the devastating and
barbarous war leaves no hope that the
fgriendly relations can be longer car
ried on. The United State is forced
to assume coercive attitude. which
in default of an absolute surrender on
the part of Spain must entail war
But Intervention cannot be thought
of unless the United States is prepar-
ed to see that after the war Cuba is
not left in worst state than now.
America must therefore assume the
sole burden of assuring pacification of
Cuba by the expulsion of the Spanish
troops and hauling down of the Span
ish flag.
War is certain and Cuba will be
free.

EAsTON, Pa, Aug. 2.-Lady Yarde-Buller is at the Franklin House in this city.
 The story she tells of her coming to Easton is that she went to the Pennsylvania Railroad station in Jersey City last Friday night, where she was to meet her guardian and other friends, and take a Lehigh Valley train for the West. Their destination was California, which was her former home. Through some misunderstanding, probably on account of illness on her part, she did not see them; they had her money and tickets, and. thinking they were on the train, she got aboard. The conductor brought her as far as Easton, where she is now stranded. She is penniless, but the proprietor of the hotel agreed to give her accommodations until she might communicate with her friends.
 On the hotel register she signed her name as "The Hon. Leilah Kirkham Yarde-Buller" in large, bold hand. She has spent nearly all her time in her room, where her meals are served With the few peo- pie who met her she created the inn

Leilah was taken to Eng land and young Majoribanks left to nurse his blighted affections as best he could with the sweet balm of weak tea served by the incest little Geishas in Japan.
 LeiIah Kirkham kept a link that bound her future to this last scene in her girlhood's past. Through all the strange vicissitudes of her strange career she carried with her a bracelet of curious Oriental design, the first and last gift of Lord Tweedmouth.
 When she met and married David Boyle Blair 1t seemed that at last her life lines were to be cast in peaceful waters With her husband she came to Oakland and lived in the Kirkham mansion on the banks of Lake Merritt. Two children were born, both boys. Then her husband was sent to South Africa. Gossip said he was glad to go. Rumors of stormy married life. an ungovernable temper, and defiance of conventionalities floated about.
 Then came the news that David Boyle Blair was no more. He had been killed in fight with the natives.
