HIS MESSAGE AT LAST
President Wants Authority
lo Take Measures.
DESIRES TO PUT AX ESI) TO WAR
C'niifiruHH ythki'd to AiitlinrlTH tlie PrfHi
ilciit tn Tnkn Measure to Secure a
Turitilmitloii r HoKtllitlcM in Culm
Miiln Incident n Feature.
Washington, April 11.
The president's message asks
congress to authorize the ad
jninistralion to takeyincasnres
to end the war in Quba, to se
cure the establishment of a
stable government there, and
to use the naval, and military
and naval ibieetf of the Unit
od Slates, if neqessaiy, for that
purpose.
The president says the only
hope for relief from a condi
tion which can no longer be
endured is the enforced paci
fication of the 'island. The
issue is now with congress,and
he awaits its action, standing
prepared to carry out every ob
ligation imposed on him by
that body.
Spain's decreeof suspension
of hostilities is submitted to
congress for just and careful
attention, with the observa
tion that if the measure at
tains a successful result, "our
aspirations as a peace-loving
people will be satisfied. If it
fails it will only be another
justification of our contem
plated action."
The Maiuu incident figures prominent
ly in the message. The president Htiye
that the wreck of thu Maine in Havann
Imrbor fihowa that Spuin is not able to
Kunrnnteo enfety to foreign veeeele.
Spain haa oll'ered to submit to arbitra
tion all thu ditterenccH which may arise
from that affair.
The president expresses thu view that
recognition of the independence of Cu
ba at this time would bo ill-advised and
unwarranted and unjustified, and cites
precedents to justify his attitude, call
inf attention particularly to President
Juckeon's refusal to recognize Texas
when that state was struggling to throw
oil" the Mexican yoke, and quoting Jack
sou's utterances on tint occasion.
Washington, April 11. The presi
dent's message waB received In thu sen
ate and u-furred to the committee on
foreign relations. Stewart then took
the door, and declared that intervention
without recognition of the Insurgents
would look like conquett.
The senate, at 1 :15 p. m., on motion
ol Allieon, adjourned, and the committee
on foreign relations was called in special
session to consider the message.
A prominent Republican member of
tlie senate committee on foreign rela
tions eald that congross could not be iu
duced to make war on Gome..

The president's message did not, after
the first reading, receive the indorse
ment of the majority of the senators, and
many excused themselves from speaking
about it until they could have time for a
careful perusal. In a general way the
objections were based on the ground
tiiat it did not go fur enough in recog
nizinc tiio rights of the Cubans. A large
number of Democratic senators refused
to express themselves at all, as did sev
eral Republicans, on the ground that as
they could not speak in complimentary
terms, thev preferred to say nothing at
all.
The most significant utterances on the
sul juct of thu message was that of Sena
tor Foraker, Republican, from the pres
ident's own state, and a member of the
foreign affairs committee.
Senator Foraker said :
"I have no patience with the message,
and you can say eo."
Washington, April 11. Tho reading
of the message in thu house was greeted
with scattering applause from (lie Re
publican side. The galleries made no
demonstration. Hie message was re
ferred to tho committee on foreign af
fairs without debate, ami the house pro
ceeded with the Distiict of Columbia
business.
The house committee on foreighn af
fairs was in session an hour this morn
ing, but reached no conclusion as to the
form or subject-matter of the resolution
which will be reported. The committee
will hold another meet: tig tomorrow
morning.
The houso Republicans who were in
the movement for aggressive action are
to meet this afternoon to decide upon a
plan of action.

Two colors, black and red. Why you
should use our sheep paint. First, be
cause the colors are ground thoroughly
in pure linseed oil by fine machinery;
second, because it is made of high grade
color, with the proper amount of dryers
added to give it binding and lasting
qualities, which prevent It from washing
or rubbing ell'; third, it is much moie
economical, because it is always ready
for use. We guarantee our shpep maik
