which there wa so nmch controvert at the time. Several jurists throughout the tute have parsed upon the question during 1 he past ten month", and in nearly every instance the measure vns declared unconstitutional.

Cifb-.io. I ch. feV The Tribun print the following special fron Wusha ton; "1 do not purpose doing anything to precipitate war with Spain. I'p to the present 1 do not think war is either necessary or inevitable. 1 would lie lax iu my duty, however, if 1 did not prepare for tlic fut ure. The situation is grave, and the tioliey of the adminis

tration will be determined ul most entirely by the course of events from time to time. There bl no necessity of alarming the people, but congress must be ready to assist the administration without making too MtOJ ir. tuiries aa the course of current events.'' To a senator who called upon hi'.n Wednesday, in order to us'.t some serious qaeatiooa as t. Um policy ol the udministrat ion. President Melvinley, with the eUeeat Iranlmeaai attatwd the above words. There is now no doubt of the fact that DM government of the United States ia actually preparing for war with Spain. It docs not follow that war will come.

but the act ivity in both tiie war and navy departments is too unmistakable to bi- concealed. The president and his cabinet unite in the belief still, in spite of all evidence to the contrary, that the e.piHOa of the Maine w as the result of an anfortanate aeeldenttbnt they recognize the fact that the contrary may prove true at alni isi unv lour, and thai if it la shoivn. even inferentially.

that Spain had a hand in the catastrophe, there w ill be but one thing to do. anil that will be to seize the island of Cube by ferae ol arms. At eoUane since the w ar of the rebellion has the military branch of the government been so ooUva as it is to-day. It is a significant fact that within the last two day- there has been a remarkablo change in opinion in the navy department In regard to the explosion of the. Maine. When the news arrived here la-.t w eck. expert s at the department were evenly divided as between an aecidtnt and design. Hut to-day. after studying the later reports, para especially the photos s nt from Havana, nine out of tcu of the ofleen Ol the department express the belief that the Maine was anchored ovc- a submarine mine. Trc only difference of opinion seems to be as to w hether that mine was exploded bv Spanish officers acting under

orders or by MMM enthusiast. The latter opinion is generally held; but it is said that t his docs not 1-sscu in any great degree the responsibility of Spain for the horrible catastrophe. I f the Spanish oflie. rs caused or allowed th - warship to be moored to a buoy which was attached to a sulmarine mine, they thereby became responsible for the result, whether the mine was exploded by ofheial orders or not. The placing of th - Maine in an exposed place, in the harbor, if it was done at all. was done by Spanish officers, and if the mine w as exploded by anybody at nil, they were directly responsible, and MtU so be held by President McKinley s administration.
