Unfolding the President.

Washington, March TN speaking
of the demand for the recall of General
Lee and the presidents refusal to do
SO, there is no division in sentiment.
Leaders in congress all uphold the
president. Senator Davis said
SIT is circumstance which, added to
the present strained conditions, makes
things more vexatious. L approve the
presidents action in every particular. ;"
Senator Pettigrew said: 81 certainly
approve the presidents course in the
matter, should judge the request to
recall our consul general is somewhat
unsuual, and under other circum-
stances would be complied with, but
the conditions precedent to this case
take it out of the usual rule and JUS
titled the presidents action. 1 think
that, in view of the fact that it is con-
ceded the Maine was blown up, the
president would be justified in sending
battleships loaded with combustibles
as well as food and filed with armed
men. 1t seems to me we cannot ac-
cept any settlement short of the in
dependence of Cuba"
Senator Cullom said: 81 regard the
course pursued by the president in an
swer to the Spanish government as
right, justified by all the conditions,
and the American people will endorse
him in that position he has taken. L
have believed for some days that we
were nearing a crisis from day to day,
and it has seemed to me that the
Spanish government was endeavoring |
to bring on a conflict between that
government and ours"
Senator Morgan of Alabama said:
81 heartily applaud the presidents
action in the dispatch. 1 do not think
the Spanish government will insist
upon Lees recall nor do think it will
refuse bounty to those poor, starving
,reat ures, though it may be dished out
20 them with mailed hand. We are
proud of General Lee and his conduct
n Cuba. The recall of General Lee,
n my opinion, was in Difference to the
ointment in Madrid"
Represen tative Grosvenor of Ohio:
Spain has the undoubted right to
nake peremptory demand for the
of General Lee, Under or
mary circumstances, this government
gould be bound to grant this conces-
ion upon demand, but under existing
circumstances, where the withdrawal
Lee would be an implied censure of
is course, the president should re-
Use just as peremptory." {

the country to that Of water course It
may be authoritatively stated that
nearly all the channels Of seasonable

This is particularly the case in iron and
steel, where production and consump-

unprecedented rate, at q time, too, when
it is usual to look for quietness and even
dullness in that industry. Nothing like
the present activity in this branch Of

past, il, indeed, It has ever been
eoualled.
