CRISIS IN THE CABINET EXCITJNO EXPERIENCE OF A BRITISH STEAMER. Two Gunboats Her and Tire but the Swift Vessel 'Comes oft, May twice chased by Spanish gunboats and passing through a- perfect storm of shot, which splashed in the water across the vessels bow, the British fruit steamer "Ethc-lrcd" passed through the exciting ordeal unscathed and arrived at this' port today after a five-days' run from Port Antonio, Jamaica. When the "Ethelred" left here May 112th it was the intention of Capt. John D. Hart to accompany her, but he arrested as he was about to step on the gangplank to aboard.

It is supposed that agents of the Spanish r-rrtmcnt in this city had'notified tne Spanish authorities at that Hart would be. on the vessel, hence tho effort to hold up tho "Bthelred" In Cuban waters. The first encounter with the Spanish i-ruisers occurred off Capo Maysi, on the trip down. Just after dusk on bun- rlay evening. May 18th, a crunboat without any lights shot out from under the Maysl capea, and crowding on all steam, steered directly for the fruit vessel.

After fUeaming for an hour without gaining an' inch, the gunboat turned a searchlight on the other vessel. All steam was crowded on the "Ethelred," which was beginning to show the Spaniard a clean pair of heels, when a cloud of smoke belched from the crulner'a side, and a second later a soMd shot cut the water a half mile ahead of her bows. Then came a second and a third shot, each nearer than the othftro. Capt. Israel kept on his rourae, and after an hour's chase the Spaniard dropped from the.

race. The second chase happened last Thursday afternoon. Just, as the "Etholrcd" rounded Oape'Moyal a big Spanish gunboat of the newest typo started out from under the cape and gave chase to the "Kthelred." For two hours the chase was kept up. enlivened now and then by a solid shot throwing up a shoet of white spray just ahead of the swift vessel's bows. Ft began to look if this Spaniard meant to chase the "Kindred" clear to the Delaware capes, when another steamship was HlKhtfd and the gunboat sheered ott and gave vigorous chaso to the newly discovered steamer.

Two of Clty'i Strongeot Banki to be Made One. Kansas' City, May an arrangement just completed, the National Bank of Commerce of this city will absorb tho business of the Metropolitan National bank, having decided to buy the tleposlts of the latter institution outrlKht. Both ImnkH are among the bldoMt-efltabllahed and biggest con- ccrnM in the eJty. In its last statement, rendered May 14th, the Metropolitan showed deposits of loans and cash and sight exchange, total resources, $2.623.064. The statement of the Bank of Commerce issued on the same tlate showed deposits of loans and discounts, cash and sight exchange, total resources, In explanation of the liquidation, Mr.

J. K. Burnham, president of the Metropolitan in an interview tonight, had this to say: "While on the faco of the transaction It is merely liquidation and the whirling up -of tho affairs of the Metropolitan National, it Is actually and practically a union of two of the most powerful financial institutions of the city." Though- such are the statements made by-disinterested batik officials, it known, that the Metropolitan National has been doing a losing business for six months past. The failure of the Missouri National bank six months ago was the cause of a lively run upon the Metropolitan, and though the bank weathered the storm at that time, its business since has not been profitable. The terms of the consolidation are not mado known, but It is stated tonight that the transaction has been effected at a loss to tho stockholders the Metropolitan National.

Madrid, May position of the Cabinet is the theme of most anxious discussion on all sides. Some of the Government organs think the Ministry should meet the Cortes tomorrow, endeavor to secure the adoption of such bill's as arc and then suspend the session as soon as possible.

Others think a change of policy expedient and'In fact inevitable. The Cabinet sat in council this even- Ing until o'clock and It was decided to appear before the: Cortes tomorrow and give explanations of the Tetuan- Comas incident of Friday last, even if the Liberals should absent themselves. London, May correspondent at Madrid says: In the conference held on Saturday between the President of the Senate, the Premier and Senator'Sagasta. with 'reference to the Tetuan-Comas incident, the President said he would liot be justified In Interfering, as tho affair had not occurred In the Senate chamber, but In the lobby. The Premier declared that the opposition ought to be satisfied if the Duke of Tetuan.

announced in the Senate chamber, that ha never intended to slight-or give 1 offense to the Liberal minority. He added that tho Government could not dispense with the Duke of Tetuan's services as Minister of Foreign Affairs, because he alone was acquainted with and able to conduct important, and delicate negotiations with foreign governments (meaning America). Senator Sagawta promised to give his followers conciliatory advice, but said he be guided by their decision. Accordingly he summoned a meeting of the Liberals, Avho were in no conciliatory temper. However, after a prolonged discussion they gave a note of confidence to Senator Sagasta, with Instructions to settle the conflict on the understanding that they would not enter tho Cortes until the -Government bad given them such as Senator Sagasta deemed proper.

Tho Premier, on receiving Senator Sagasta's went to the pa-lace" to Inform the Queen who summoned a council of the Ministers. The crisis has drawn poular attention from the attitude of the United States Senate which a majority of affect to consider without importance as bearing upon the immediate relations of the two countries. New York, May dispatch to the Herald from Madrid says: The Her- dldo do Madrid devotes an editorial to the Tottian incident, strongly urging th" Duke to resign. Kach party blames the other for the attitude of the United States since the heated personal discussion which caused the assault. El r'mparclal in an editorial this morning criticises tho Government se- that its policy has'al- ways beeti one of indecision and simulated optimism, and It infers that the Ouke of Tetuan's act has brought the party conflict to an acute stage.

Fiflmparelal also condemns the.Gov- ernment for allowing Americans in Havana tn openly interfere with Spanish concerns. The Madrid press generally displays groat anxiety about President McKin- Ic-y's attitude. TOO MUCH MONEY. Attendance is Good and the Pro. gramme is Interesting.

Complaint in London, which Buai- Men Indulge in. London, May most noticeable feature of the money market is the plethora of ready cash, though this wilJ probably be less obvious In the near future, when the demands of the jubilee festivities, which will be very. heavy, begin to make themselves, and the approaching Whitsuntide set- tl.ements will ease the pressure. Gold continues in demand for Russia ami Austria, and the 'issue of the Japanese loan next week ought to lead to largo withdrawals for the Orient. Fluctuations in rates therefore may be expected up to the close.

The rate of Eastern exchange makes Indian and Chines3 orders for the most part impossible and there is no sign of a revival as yet in the Levant. Idle looms are rapidly increasing.

One re- of this serious condition is a resolution to make the Whitsuntide holidays as long'as possible.

The Spanish Commander Comments on American Affairs. New York, JVIay dispatch to the Journal from. Cienfuegos, Cuba, says: In one interview with Gen. Weyler upon his arrival here from Placetas, in reference to the Cuban revolution, 'the General said: "I am not surprised at action thus far. taken, nor shall I be surprised if the House concurs in the Senate resolution and sends it to the President.

Your jingoes are In the saddle and evidently bent upon forcing the country in some foreign complications in order to distract attention, from the approaching international crisis. "The few scattering bands of Cuban dynamiters, railroad wreckers, horse and cattle thieves, plantation burners and highwaymen now in the field here, who hold no port and possess no seat of civil government, have no right to expect recognition. Such distinction at President M'cKlnley's hands, issued in the face of my own proclamation officially declaring the greater part of the island to be already pacified, would hold the Washington executive up to the ridicule of European powers, and prompt a. healthy outburst of sympathy for the Spanish cause, especially from neighboring Old Governments also possessing colon-ies in the West Indies. "In brief, recognition may aid the Government of the Junta in placing a few bonds, but will at the same time assure, the successful issue of our proposed new Spanish loan in Paris, London and Vienna, and enable us to carry on the war with renewed vigor.

"Personally I shall be glad. If recognition comes, our position will then be more clearly defined. It will work, a virtual abrogation of our special treaty with the United States, place Yankees residing in Cuba in an identical position before the courts with other for- nign residents, and I shall be troubled less by the complaints and often ridiculous demands from American Consuls, It would also relieve the Spanish Government of all t'esponsi- bllity for the, destruction of foreign property not actually 'within the line of Spanish defenses, further simplify mattera-iby assuring us the right to board vessels whenever sus'pe'eCed. "For one, I shall heartily rejoice that 'the "hypocrisy of United States Government's oft-reiterated expressions of friendship shall be unmasked. I have always had little confidence in the sincerity of its assertions.

Each new declaration from Washington calculated to throw our marine officials engaged in patroling the Cuban coast off their guard has invariably been followed by the departure of some new Cuban filibuster from an American port with arms and ammunitions for our enemy." Broke the Combination. Bromer is a successful business man and Dromer Is his friend. On occasions they stay out later at night than is absolutely necessary, and then they get together as soon as convenient to compare notes on what happened at home.
