A CABINET MEETING
At Which the Situation Was Fully
Observation-Disclosures Looks More
Pacific.

Washington, March S.-The cabinet
was in session to-day fully an hour
longer than usual 1t is understood
that the situation was discussed in all
its phases and that it was the opinion
Of all the members that within the
last day or two matters had taken
more pacific turn. The situation, it
was stated, was becoming more salts
factory and comfortable in all direc-
tions. The report that Spain has puc-
chased two war vessels from Brazil
is known to be incorrect, and the
statement was made that should the
United States wish to buy these YES
sells there was reason to believe she
would be given the opportunity. The
government is doing everything that
prudence and discretion would die
tate to put the navy of the United
States on a good footing, should the
necessities of the case require heroic
treatment. The Lee recall incident
and the intimation that relief supplies
should not be sent to Cuba in war
vessels are now fully disposed of AMI
the momentary anxiety which they
caused has passed away. All things
considered, the outlook is regarded by
the cabinet as decidedly improved

ANOTHER INCIDENT"
That Didn't Remain Open More Than a
Few Minutes

Washington. March SIN conjunc-
ton with the intimations of the Span
ish government regarding Consul Gen
eral Lee and the class of vessels in
which the relief supplies should be
sent to Cuba, a third inquiry was
made. Captain Crowninshield was
the object of request for information
as to the nature OF his recent trip 10
the West Indies. The Spanish govern
ment had been informed that Captain
Crowninshield on this occasion had
been incommunication with the insur-
gents and even went 50 far as TO give
them indirect aid through filibuster-
ing sources.
When the matter was brought to
the attention of President Mckinley
an immediate denial in explicit terms
was returned. Spain thereupon closed
the incident with an acceptance Of the
Presidents statement. saying they had
been misinformed.

INSPECTING FORTIFICATIoNs-
Gen. Merritt Will Visit Coast Defense
1850 Points as Far as Key West.


1850 Points as Far as Key West.
New York, March S.-Especial inter-
est is taken in military circles in the
trip of Gen. Wesley Merritt command
ing the department of the East, to Key
West and other Southern Atlantic de-
lenses. AS Key West is the nearest
point to Spanish possessions, the in
spection by Gen. Merritt of the forti-
fiacationS there is of particular import
ance.
Gen. Merritt said last night: MY
purpose is to start on my visit of
inspection to the Notifications on the
seacoast of the South tomorrow at
noon. When | was in New Orleans a
week ago | contemplated going across
country to Key West, but | found it
would be easier to make railroad con-
nections by returning to New York
and starting from this point. | shall
go direct to ST. Augustine and then
visit Key West and other points on
the coast of Florida. ! shall also go
to our denfenses on the coast of Geor-
gia and both South and North Caro-
lima. | do not think that | will go to
the forts and barracks about Washing
ton and Baltimore or to Fort Monroe
on this trip but will leave them to be
inspected later in the spring when the
weather will be finer in that vicinity.
shall be away for two of three
weeks"
Have the developments in the re-
lations of this country to Spain any
bearing upon your trip" Gen. Merritt
was asked.
None whatever" was the reply. Il
made all my plans last week and see
no reason to change them. | am glad
that Congress has passed the bill for
two more regiments of artillery.
That will enable us to properly
strengthen the garrisons at our sea-
board fortifications and to put some
men at ungarrisoned points where they
are needed. We know just where we
need men the most"

Three weeks ago tonight the Maine
was blown up. AS it was last week
at this time, so it is now. nothing
Is known officially as to the cause Of
the disaster. The court of inquiry is
az work hard. That is all that is
hho"n at the navy department. lC is
not even known where it NAV be ex-
pected to finish its work. But the i'm
portance of its report does not dimin-
lsh IN the slightest degree by the lapse
OF time and in the midst of diversion
caused by more recent happenings
the more thoughtful officials have not
lost sight of the fact that when the
report of the court of inquiry comes to
the navy department in the hands of
some trusty naval officer, probably
Lieut.. Commander Mark himself. the
judge advocate of the court, the gov
eminent may be face to face with an
other and vital isue.
Senior du Bose called at the State
department late in the day, and had
a half hours conference with Judge
Day He brought no dispatches, and
the talk did not relate to the present
strained condition OF affairs, but was
rather an informal discussion of the
condition of
AFFAIRS IN CUBA.
In the course of the visit it is under
stood that Mr.. Du Bose suggested that
some of the newspaper correspondents
at Havana were trespassing on the
privileges which the Havana authori-
ties had accorded them.
The new Spanish minister, Senior
Polo y Bernabe, will arrive in New
York tomorrow on a German line
steamship. He is expected at the lega-
ton the following day and arrange
ments will be made for the presenta-
ton of his credentials to President
Mckinley. There will be the usual
exchange of Fluctuations. which will
be OF more than passing interest
Senior Polo left Madrid before the re-
cent critical juncture was reached,
and at the time of his departure the
new commercial treaties were upper
most in the interest of the Madrid au-
thorities.
The new minister speaks English
fiuently, having been in this country
for several years. He is married, his
wife being the daughter of one of the
most influential men of Spain.
