statement given to me by one of the most
prominent members of the senate today.
“War "will come. It may not be
this week, it may not be next; but it
is just as certain to come as anything
in the future can be certain. The
only thing that can prevent such a
result is for the Spanish character to
undergo a sudden change, and that, is,
of course, beyond the realm of possi
bility.'’
The senator who made that statement
very close to the president; closer in
deed on all matters of great moment than
even Hanna him.-elf. despite all that the
newspapers have had to say to the con
trary. To mention his name would at . live
-r.iprvss everybody with the importance ot
such a declaration coming from his lips.
Put Im talked to me freely of the anmin
istr.itlon policy with the understanding that
his name should not be used in connection
with whatever The Constitution m.gnt
print. u
According to liir* statement the prosuh'ui
Ims at hast been made to realize Imw
overwhelming is the sentiment of tne peo
ple of llw country against any settlement
for the Maine disaster which can be con
strued as a compromise of national bonot .
The president's inclinations have undoubt
edly a. en ail tin- time toward peace, lie has
thought that there might hen settlement
■,.r the destruction of the Maine on a dol
irs and cents basis Hid very strong in
ti.u lives have been brought tn bear upon
him to keep him in that notion.
But or. the other hand there have
ptured in upon him, through the me
dium of republican senators and rep
resentatives, such a multitude of pro
tests as to leave no room for doubt as
to the sentiment of the people.

What that report will be. the pres

lie has received advices both from
General Lee and from Captain Sigsbee
v.hich leave absolutely no question in
his mind tb it the Maine was blown up
from external agencies. Having reach
that conclusion, he proposes to bring
on th.e climax in such away as will
profit him and his party most, if that
is possible.
