One fact stands out clear and distinct
among the cloud OF confused and cohiiict-
ing reports from Washington. This Is the
firm purpose OF Congress to force prompt
action unless Spain grants tho demands
OF the United States. Ii the Sagasta Min
istry has responded to the representations
of this government with a procrastinattng
and evasive despatch, this will serve only
a. further source of irritation.
Tho wisdom, from strictly diplomatic
viewpoint, Of the policy in support OF
which the Senate and the House are prac-
tically q unit, Is not now the question.
Common sense requires that facts shall
be recognized as they are. There comes
time, In periods Of international stress
and strain, when nations and legislators
grow impatient with the slow processes
Of formal diplomacy and demand that tho
Gordian knot shall be cut at once. That
moment has arrived in this country, aud
It Is futile folly to pretend otherwise.
The majority OF the American people
and the average Congressman are not
versed In the lore Of technical interna-
tional procedure or skilled in the nicetes
Of phrase in which governments mask
their meaning But they feel with an in
tensity which no intelligent observer can
doubt that this country has waited long
enough for an offer Of reparation for the
Maine outrage and they are moved to
bot indignation by the reports of tho sui
feriDgs Of the Cuban people. These i'm
pulses have become blended in an EN-
phaticand overpowering demand for ut
ton that shall punish the crime against
the Maine and drive the Spaniards out of
Cuba:
This combination Of the two objec in
the public mind may not be according to
principles of abstract logic, but IL is the
dominant and undeniable feature of tho
situation. This sentiment SWAPS Con-
gress in both houses and in all its politi-
cal divisions. IL aCtua.e, the nation at
large. 1t euforces upon the administra-
ton the necessity of acting with all the
vigor at its command unless Spain shall
make a complete surrender on the points
ut issue before next Monday morning.
Congress has agreed to hold the forces Of
war in leash until that date. 1t will not
willingly wait u day longer.

DILLARD UNDEa ARREST
Murderer of Bud PuInsm Reported TO
he In Custody st AtOka = Ar
rested for Minor Ofepse.


Information was received
here yesterday by DR.. |. w.
Folsom from Atoka, from two
sources there, that Jim billiard.
the murderer of Bud Pulliam,
was under arrest and held at
AtOka for some minor offense.
One letter was from Mrs. Rus
sell. who is DIR. Folsom's
mother-in-law. She stated that
it was reported there that the
man who killed Bud Pulliam
was in Jail. The other letter
was from DR.. Folsom's son,
Willie, a young man we'll known
here, and who is in a position
at Atoka to know whereof he
sreaks. He says that Jim Dill
lard, the negro who killed Bud
Pulliam, was arrested by Green
wood La Flore, an Indian po-
lice and marshal, on a work
train at that place, charged
with some misdemeanor.
The fact that the officers here
have not been apprised of the
arrest seems strange. DR.. Fol-
som let the matter be known,
however, and A. S. PulIiam at
once wired to Atoka about the
case.
