SOME wELL-INFoRMED sepublicani

SOME wELL-INFORMED sepublicans
predict that there will be an extra ses-
sion of Congress. Though this is not
certain, as they only say that the DRIFT
il in that direction. The principal
reason assigned for this alleged prob
ability is that the President has told
leading republican congressman very
recently that he does not see how an
extra session can we'll be avoided.
He takes the ground that as Congress
declared war against Spain, on &C
count of the misgoverument Of Cuba.
and also declared by law the policy
that after expelliDg the Spanish author
ity from Cuba the inhabitants OF the
island should be allowed to frame their
own government and that the Ameri-
Gao forces should be Withdrawn go soon
as stable and satisfactory government
should be created, 1t follows that Con-
gress ought to say whether these con-
ditions have been fulfilled or not, and
whether the new Cuban government 10
a satisfactory one or not. There is no
doubt of the fact that 10 administration
circles there is a strong sense OF disap'
poiutment at the outcome In Cuba.
1t Is evident so far that the work of the
Cuban convention discloses no graft
tude to this country and no adequate
provision for future relations, but q
manifest purpose to ignore all special
interests of the United States. The po-
sition will be an embarrassing one for
the administration il after all its ex-
penditure of blood and treasure, and q
long period of nursing, pupilage and
instruction, the relations OF this coun'
try to Cuba are no better than they
were before. Mr.. Mckinley doubtless
would like to have Congress relieve
him of the responsibility of dealing
with the Cuban question, but it isn't
likely that he will call an extra session
of that body, especially as his strongest
supporters in it do not want him to
dose.
