M 6 i Know none has been contemplated since the adjournment of congress. So far as the visit of Consul-General Lee to Washington Is concerned, It has no more significance than my walking from tho war department to my residence would have. There are private matters demanding finnnr.ni Lee's attention in this country and he came home to attend to them. Ho took advantage of this opportu nity to enlighten the president as to the condition of affairs and the exact situation In Cuba. "What the resident's intonHnm. may be In this matter are known only to himself, and the speculations and surmises about proclamations ac cording belligerent rights to tho Cu bans are manufactured out of whole cloth. As a matter of fact the presi; uent nas not, even begun the prepara tion of his annual messaro t.n vn. gress. "This Cuba matter has been settled and unsettled so many times by a clique of stock operators that'It- has become amusing to witness their movements. One day thoro Is rumor started which send stocks soaring upward and the next day there Is another yarn which causes a corres ponding depression of tho market. It can bo put down as a certainty, however, that the president will pur sue the same courso-in regard to Cuba that has marked his administration, regardless of clamor from the outside. "It should be borne In mind, too, that the president is by no means un advised as to the people and condition of Cuba, for at the close of of his first administration he went down to the island with a -patty of friends and studied things very closely while hf was there. There had been no com munication between the president or the fecretary of state and the repre sentative of any foreign government in regard to the Cuba situation, and consequently no members of the diplomatic corps is competent to give any information concerning th plans of the administration on this was reinforced when the rebels were scattered. They left 38 dead. The royal losses were two killed and five wounded. .A column nnrW nnnnmi Artega was pursuing tho rebels In the mountains. "Madrid.Nov. 7. In Pvrlns. In t.i.

Mr. Sellgman,af ter a brief address, called upon Mr. Hanna who spoke with unusual length for him. He said Iho new adminis tration would begin its work without any pledges and wholly untrammelcd In the selection of a cabinet. Mr. Hanna said he hoped they would be able to enlist good citizens In the cause represented lw Mm nnttmmi banner. Abrams Hewitt paid a high compli ment to Major McKlnlcy and con cluded by asking that he be permitted to enroll hlmBelf under the banner of tho national party and by proposing as a toast the successor the coming administration, to which he pledged the support of himself and all patri otic Democrats.

Tuere is a (inference or opinion In diplomatic circles here from that ex pressed by the secretary of war, and members of tho diplomatic corps are not at all backward about expressing themselves. One of the leading for eign representatives, who voices the feclingsoof the Spanish government, inclines to the belief that the presi dent of the United States will make a recommendation in line with the pol icy already indicated in a former dis patch. That course is to throw the entire responsibility upon congress. This diplomat has had Interviews with Consul-General Lee, Sccretarr Olney and the Spanish minister within the last week, and he Is more than ever convinced that nothing will be attempted by the United States before the reassembling of congress. "It is not for any lack of sympathy with the Cubans, "said the diplomatic representative, "but because it does not seem a proper time for the United States to interfere'" Another argument against the In tervention by the United States in Cuban affairs is that there is a ten) dency on the part of the Cubans them selves to oppose any fraternization with the Anglo-Saxons.' King Oscar Apolmed. Washington, Nov. 10 The king of Sweden and Norway, Oscar II, has been chosen by treaty between tho United Statse and Great Britan as the fifth official arbitrators, four in num ber, are to be designated, two by the lordchclf justice of England, and two by tho chelf justice of the United States. This is the final and most Important feature of the treaty for complete adjustment of tho long pending Venezeulan controversy. The treaty was concluded In Washington last night, at tho British embassoy, Sir Julian Pauncefotc representing her Britannic majesty, and secretary Olney the United States. The other essential feature of the treaty Is that 60 years of actual pos session Is to constitute .title. With this limitation as to the settled dis tricts, the entire sweep of the Vene zuelean boundary is placed in the hands of the court of arditration. The treaty covers only the question of general arbitration between the UnltcdStatesand Great Britain is left to future negotiation. Asa king sel dom leaves his country, except on state visits to other sovereigns, it Is not expected that King Oscar II will go outside of Sweden for the arbitra tion, and the court is- likely to sit at Stockholm, the capital of Sweden where King Oscar's reksdag are located.

It was announced as the begin ning of tho bimctalllst' fight of four years hence.
