Say 0A5T LAST LONG, Britishers of Spain's Endurance of Yankee Insults. Loxdon, December' 15. The Times to-day, commenting on th Cuban situation, expresses tb hope that the Spaniards will "continue to disregard the vituperation of the Jingo Senators and abstain from 1ml-tstlng them." The Globe this afternoon says: "When these wild men rave at England British feeling regards them as amusing lunatics, whose grotesque antics do not carry danger to either country. But the Spanish are more easily Inflamed to anger, and there to some danger of Spain falling Into the trap when the piratical Laurada reaches 1 alencia. Spain has endured much contumely from the great republic, but there are many Indications the this passive sub mission to Insult will not laat much longer.

It would be well, therefore, for the Wash ington Government to place restraint upon Senator Chandler and his coUeaguea. If Bpala decided to uphold ber honor by arms a naval war might have results not at all agreeable to the American Chauvinist.

will probably make during this session On the Cuban question was delivered tn tha Senate this afternoon by Mr. Morgan, of Alabama. The venerable old man, who stands in the front rank of strong Americana, spoke for almost an hour. He confined his remarks to a review of tb condition of affairs in Cuba, as laid before Congress in the President's means ge. The island he characterized as being th prey of commissioned suerrillas who had become robbers, cutthroats, assassin, ravlahers and pirates.

If the I'nited State was to Intervene and prevent the further butchery of human be-inas and save the Island from utter desolation. Senator Mor.an declared that he would prefer open war, and asserted his readiness now to vote for It. At the conclusion of his speech his resolution calling on the President for the correspondence on file In the State Department was agreed to without dissent. Mr. Alien, of Nebraska, offered a resolution for the appointment of a committee to Investigate the charges of money used corruptly In the recant campaign and assessments paid by corporations, mine owners, bankers and railroad corporations.

A pension bill vetoed by the Pesldent during the lust session was passed over the veto by a vote of 41 to The Senate agreed t. the House resolu tion fur holiday recews from Dcsxnbr 22 to January 5 By Senator Morgan For Decisive Ac i ion ReKardins; Cuba. Mr. Morgan said: "I will confine my remarks to oxymntanta upon the facts stated in the recent annual message of. the Prealdetit and the report of the Secretary of State.

I am r.ot able to discover thgt the President has made any specific recommendations, or indication as to any actios he deems it proper or expedt ent for Congress to t--with reference Spain "or Cuba: nor Ira he has Indicated any course, except a stlU, patient wailing that the Executive proposes to take. Congress, thus left to its own Initiative, must assume Its own responsibility in a matter of the most serious gravity. "Congress must gtver the statements of the President unhesitating acceptance as to matters that were committed by the constitution to his especial charge. When' he undertakes to state the facts that aiTect our relations with other powers we. must accept those facts, unless the disproof of them far overpowerlngi This message is therefore of rhe most impressive Importance, as a statement of the leading facts and conclusions that bear upon our duties In respect to the coxrucr or IBWI Which has raged for over two years In the inland of Cuba, and It has the support of nearly all American belief.

I have not heard that Spain controverts any statement of the President In his message. The evidence that comes from private sources relative to the condition of Cuba and the horrors of persecution, and extermination visited upon the people of Cuba admits of no doubt as to its credibility. Yet it presents pictures so Incredibly inhuman and so disgraceful to the civilisation ofthls sge that it stons the mind into disbelief that such things can be true." A Mr. Morgan spoke the galleries filled, and his words were followed with close attention by the Senators aad the large number of spectators. I Mr.

Morgan went on to speak of the trying situation, which required prompt action to save thousands of Innocent people from cruel and deliberate butchery. The wholesale massacres of Spain was no surprise to the Senator, who had anticipated it, "If war with the United States Is neoes eery to reconcile the Spanish people to the loss of Cuba by foreign conquest." said Mr. Morgan, "we shall be compelled to meet that emergency. If the DBBTRUCTtOlf OF CUBA Is enough to satisfy the popular sentiment of revenge, we can avoid a war with Spain by remaining Inactive, while our own people are being ruined or slaughtered along with the Cubans. If we mean to take any action toward stopping this war of annihilation and extermination we bar no time to Mr.

Morgan spoke of-the resolution of Congrese at the last BesiVon. which he said left the President the choice of concurring with the policy of Congress or delaying. The President chose to delay. The war has con tinued, raid Mr. Morgan, until it reached the final and desperate stage, of a of devastation and extermination, with the people of Cuba as a prey to those who have set aside tha usual honorable usages of warfare, "aad have become robbers, cut throats, assassin at ravtshers and AH of these Crimea, morgan declared.

Vandiver, representing Hart of Philadelphia, the owners of the ves sel, called at the State Department this kearntnoon to inquire Into the report that the rl Laurada had been prevented from entering rrss Spanish port of Valencia.

They failed to. see Secretary Olney or Assistant Rock-hl but th Chief Clerk listened to their statements and answered for the depart The shipping men said that they had been informed that the Laurada HAD BUN FORBIDDEN By United States Consul Uertens at Grao, the port of Valencia, to enter the harbor. The chief clerk replied that this was lm- poaalbla the departmsnt had sent aa such Instructions te the Consul, in fact, had sent no instructions at' air- relative to the Lau rada. and the Consul certainly had no au thority of his own to forbid the ship to enter. Mr.

Tucker next asked what the Depart ment of State would do if the Laurada en tered the port of Valencia and was seized by the Spaniards. The chief clerk DECLINED TO ANSWER Any hypothetical questions of this kind, but assured Mr. Tucker that the Laurada would be afforded the same measure of protection that would be extended to any other American vessel under like conditions. and with this statement the callers were obliged to be content, and the Interview terminated. It Is probably the case that, while the State Department has not communicated directly with th.

Waskixotom, D. December 15. In view of th numerous, and. In some cases, drastic resolutions relative to Cuba, that have been referred to the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, the meeting of that eommitt to-morrow is looked forward to with a great deal of Intent. While it Is known that a majority of th committee are opposed to the resolution of Mr.

Mills, directing the President to take military pos- islon of the island and hold It until Cuba can formulate a Government and equip It self against foreign invasion, it Is believed that a majority of ik coram Ittes may ulti mately be Induced to favorably report a res olution recognizing the Independence of the island, without any of the qualifications that nullified the sting of the resolution reported at the last session. Senator Morgan, of Alabama, favors Mr. Mills's resolution, but wants to amend It so 4s to provide that the United States shall hold tha lalnnd uatU the. new Government to be eetatrllsbed there shall have satisfied the claims of American citizens for ternsC to their property growing out of tlx Involu tion. WHY THIS BILgNCB? The committee Is fretting under a lack of accurate Information.

The Administration is in possession of an elaborate report by Consul General Lee, but no word of it has been sent to Congress and all the news the committee has is that which finds its way to the general public, through the press. If the Department of State has any official advices concerning recent events in Cuba, and particularly the death of Maceo. which has horrified the whole country, no one knows of it. The alleged absence of information, where early and reliable news should be had. Is a matter of general surprise.

The silence of the Consular officers in Cuba on this roost important point Is Inexplicable In view of their previous record for promptness in keeping the department informed of the progress of events of far less significance. In the absence of Consul- General Lee. the Vice Consul-General. Mr. Springer, Is in charge of the interests of the United States in Cuba.

No single event of greater significance than the death of the able Cuban General, Macao, has occurred since the first Insurrectionary outbreak, yet If the officials of the State Department are to be believed, not a single word on that subject has been reported to the department by Ms repre sentative in Cuba. It Is regarded as a most singular state of Haney to on his way to Mexico by devious I affairs, In view of the great Interest taken routes to. received with astonishment.
