the government In the purchase of

the president ‘ private office.
The members of the cabinet on
leaving the White House, sa’d there
was no special significance In the
meeting. The report of the Maine
committee hail not been received
neither \va4 It definite when It would
reach here. It was expected early In
the present wi it, and us soon a- re
ceived it would tie handed ai once to
the president, and when it bad been
read and considered by the president
It would be made public.
Secretary Long. In speaking of tin
report, sal I that while fully realizing
Us Importance, the country. In his.
opinion, would willingly accord to tb -
president a day or two fur Us consid
eration.
The Indication seems to point to the
message being made public by tb*
middle of the week.
The presence of (’has. H. Flint at
the conference naturally gives Infer
ence that the president and hit. advis
ers were discussing the question of
acquiring additional Hhips.
Mr. Flint, whose commercial intcr
1 . are largely with South American
countries, is believed In a measure at
least to represent Chili and Argentine
in any negotiations* which are* 11 nut r
way for the disposition of their war
vessels.
A reporter asked Mr. 1 lint if he
could say whether or not me I’nit ''
'States had secured posies-1 n <f the
Chilian ship O’HigKlns and :ve Arg n
tine ship San Martino, hut li“ declined
to make any statement as to that ptr
thular feattre of the subject. Wh»n
pressed for some information In re
gard to the matter he replied:
•Moth Chill and the Argent1 nr Re
1 public have the warmest friendship
and admiration for the Unit <1 States
and its institutions. Neither country
i is anxious to sell Its ships to this gov
1 trament. Iiasing this Indisposition on

j ye.- ids themselves. If the time sho Id
conn, however, when It. was apparent
that the United States neebd the-*
ves'“is they would gladly part with
th* i to ns.”
The attention of Mr. Flint was
'•ailed to the published report that the
t tilted States would pun t use the Bra
zilian torpedo gunboat Tuby. hut this,
he said, would not he done so ftr a;
he was aware, as there were no nego
tiations under way to that effee .
Aside from the meeting of several
members f the eabine at tile Whi'e
House, there we'e no ine dents i f im

IMPATIENT FOR REPORT.

W .t hhiciou I'lil’* Wn li.
WASHINGTON, Match 21.—'The
keenest expectancy Is apparent In all
offl. ial quarter* in anticipation of the
early receipt of the report Irom the
court of inquiry on tin Maine disas
ter. Warlike preparations continue
wl.h unabated vigor at the war and
navy departments, but the main Inter
est is centered In the forthcoming re
port. The Interest Is so Intense that
many report* have gained circulation
to the effect that the official document
will be in the hands of the president
within the next twenty-four hours,
hut these conjectures on inquiry in
authoritative sources arc found to tie
Inaccurate. A cabinet official stated
that it would be here early this week.
Beyond this he could not go. It was
stated definitely that no advance inti
mation as to the character of the re
port had been received here. One ru
mor had it that Lieutenant Blow had
brought to Washington an abstract of
the conclusions, but this was dismiss
ed after local officials had been In con
ference with Secretary I»ng and other
officials.
The chief development Saturday
was the arrival of four of the surviv
ors of the Maine disaster, who held a
long confertnee with Scentary Long
and later were taken by the secretary
to the White House for a talk with
the president. These survivors are
Lieutenant Holman, navigator of the
Mnl. i : Lieutenant Georg-- 1*. Blow,
Lieutenant A. B. Cattlln, lr- command
cf the marines fin the Maine, and
Boat.-wain Larkin one of the noti
<ontrnissionrd officers of the wrecked
battleship. These non had passed
thro'ian Hie fearful ordeal of the <-x
idosi n and had been at Havana sine?
it occurred.
Tht.-c bad been no announcement
of rvdr la lng dtfaeh"d fro u Captain I
Sir- la < command In Havana, and
thdr coming was a complete surprise
excep- to a few officials. With them j
came Nava! Constructor Hoover, who
w.- ■ sent by Secretary Long from
Washington a few weeks r.iro to make
a technical inspection of the wreck
of the Maine. He was the naval con
structor who for months was engaged
In actual work on the Maine while It |
v,a on the *<s-!. so that he Is In a '
f ■ * » I ’ I I I » I I * » • . in- I • I
ing of the i 11 fated ship. The diver*!
had found great difficulty in identl
fving some of the battered and twist
ed piat<e from the bottom if the
Maine, and it was believed that Con
strut »or Hoover's techno al knowledge
would be able to make this identifi
cation complete.
The conference betwetn Lieutenants
11. v and Cattlin and Secretary Long
lasted for some time, Captain f’row
ninshle'.d of the bureati of navigation
and other officials being called in. it
y.tr ttated authoritatively after the
''inference that the principal subject,
of conversation was the explosion its
• if. comprising a detailed narrative of
the officer* and a harrowing d< icrip
tion of the calamity. Whether the
cause of the explosion was under dis
cussion could not be learned. It was
nauiw.lly Inferred that tin e offleeru
with their complete*personal informa
tion of the explosion, and their stih
sf-ouent visits to the wreck, would
give Secretary Ixmg the benefit of
their personal views on the cause
of tro disaster. At the same tl...e. with
the court of Innulry having complete
jurisdiction of this subject It was f* It
tha' the question of cause might lie
open to much reserve even between
these naval officers and the secretary
of the navy. So far as official warrant
wa* given to tne purposes of the con
ference, it was said to lie confined
st.'utiv to narratives of the story of
the wreck.

NEW YORK, March 21.—“The
Maine disaster Is Inseparably linked
with the general Cuban question,”
says the Washington correspondent
of the Herald. "I was assured by a
member of the cabinet that the presi
dent would deal with the former di
plomatically before making represen
tations to Spain concerning the Inde
pendence of {'iiba. The blowing up of
the Maine fa to be used an an addi
tional and final argument an to why
a speedy end should he brought to the
war In t'uba.
"President McKinley is anticipating
a decision which will show the prin
cipal lause of the disaster to have
been due to an outside explosion and
that the court will be unable to show
what person or persons committed the
lime. \ cabinet member told me
that, while the president was prepar
ing to make diplomatle n presenta
tions to Spain on an Indemnity basis,
he was not unmindful of the possibil
ities of a finding by the court which
would make war ttnavoidahb and the
• traordinary military and naval pre
parations were consequently begun.
"This official told me that only a de
cision showing nositivelv direct <cn
iifctlnn of ftpcnl.h officials wiih the
Maine disaster would prevent the
president from carrying < ui bis deter
mination to deal with the. Malm ca
tastrophe in a strictly legal and diplo
matic way. It may be futtber rated
that tbe president hopes and exoeots
that this matter can ho adjusted di
plomatically.
"I ant Informed that it Is now the
purpose of *hc president to make con
gress Jointly responsible for any nr
uon id ijpjtnrm wilij uie general < u
hnr. question which may result in war,
He believes that the independence of
Cuba is written in the book of fate.
He fn. tier believes that the blowing
up of the Maine makes it imperative
upon this country to do something a'
the earliest possible date to etui ihe
war In Cuba, hut he is not convinced
a1 to the Pest mean of doing this
without bringing on war. lie has said
that he will nor be responsible for ah
‘unholy war.’
"If the United States Is to he made
responsible for precipitating a war,
he desires that .congress shall share
the responsibility with him. rns'ead
of issuing a proclamation recognizing
the Independence of Cuba, as It has
been frequently asserted he would.
President McKinley is now of the
opinion that conprees should take the
Initiative. It Is for that wason that
the administration has chartecd Its
program In favor of an early adjourn
ment. | am now as-tired that the
president wants congress to slay lo re
until the Cuban question is in a fair
wav to settlement.
"There is no further doubt that the
holding of the Spanish torpedo flotilla
at the Canaries and the withdrawal
of the battleships from the vicinity
of Cuba was the result of an agree
ment reached bv the Washington and
Madrid governments. The fact that
Rear Admiral Slrard lias remaining
with him at Key West a formidable
squadron is due to the desire of the
authorities to have a wrong fleet there
when the renort of the court of in
quiry is ready, and the result of th^
policy to he inaugurated bv the presi
dent has made itself anparent. It ha-'
been de'ermined by the nfVb-|.-, to
continue the sharp watch which bus |
been kept un on the torpedoboat tin- \
tills and should they attainnt to move
to Porto Rico to make a vigorous
protest to Spain looking toward orders
for their immediate return to the Ca
naries. and If Spain should refuse to
comply with these representations the
u'an prepared bv the officials contem
ntntes nof only the formation of a flv
Imr squadron, blit the it Xivtch of
cruisers to Intercept the torpedo flotil
la and destroy it.”
