The president said to senators and representatives who approached him : "If I do not succeed in freeing Cuba by Monday, I will ask congress to declare Cuba free." Private advices have been sent to Consul General Lee to advise Americans to quit entirely the shores of Havana. The consul general will remain until the end, or rather until the beginning.

IX MEMORY OF EARLE. McLaurln and Tillman Fay Tributes to the Late Senator. Special to The News and Courier. Washington, March 29.?The senate paused today, in the midst of a whirlwind of war talk, to pay tribute to the memory of the late Senator Earle, of South Carolina. Considering his short term of service iu the senate he was greatly beloved by his associates, aud the eulogies passed upon him today by leading senators were of an unusually high order. Senator McLaurin, the successor of Judge Earle, was appropriately chosen to open the debate. It is seldom that the senate has listened to a more beautiful aud fitting testimonial to a departed senator than that which the junior senator from South Carolina paid to Judge Earle. Senator McLaurin's personal and political friendship for the dead senator enabled him to judge the deceased at short range, and in the opening speech he sounded the keynote for nearly all the remarks which followed. Seuators Chandler, of New Hampshire ; Clay, of Georgia; Spooner, of Wisconsin ; Chilton, of Texas; Cannou, of Utah ; Kenney, of Delaware, and McEuery, of Louisiana, addressed the senate in the order named. Senator Tillman closed the proceedings with a plain, straightforward story of the political career of Judge Earle. Senator Tillman departed somewhat from the usual eulogistic course aud directed his remarks almost exclusively to the political history surrounding Judge Earle's life in the Palmetto state. Senator Tillman prepared his hearers for his rather extraordinary procedure by stating, in his opening senteuces, that he was not personally friendly to the dead senator, as they had been political antagonists in state politics. He then proceeded to review the political history of South Carolina, with a dash here and there of some of his characteristic tartness of expression, which jarred upou the solemnity of the ceremonies. He said he would be censured for such a radical departure from the beateu track on such occasions; nuc ne wanieu 10 no full justice to the memory of Judge Earle, to demonstrate that he was a faithful and devoted public servant. There was not a tinge of venom or disrespect in Seuator Tillmau's remarkable eulogy upon his dead colleague, and he impressed the senate that he was earnest in his admiration of the manly, dignified and able qualities which finally enabled the subject of his eulogy to end his life iu the United States senate. M ERG-MENTION'. Commander Brownson, who went from the United States recently to buy Warships, is now in Italy. The United States flag was hoisted over a recently purchased German torpedo boat last Wednesday. In the senate, on Tuesday, Senator Mason said that if 40 of the Maine victims were sons of senators, the United States would not be 40 days in declaring war. Prominent Spaniards throughout Mexico are raising large subscriptions to give to the mother country to enable her to prosecute war with the United States. William J. Bryan is spoken of as the next governor of Xel braska. The Demeorats claim that he can be elected by 50,000 majority. The Michigan congressional delegation called upon President McKinley in a body last Tuesday and begged him to recognize Cuban independence. A company of 75 volunteers, organized in San Francisco, sent in an application to the secretary of war on Tuesday, asking to be enrolled in case of war with Spain. A tlcet of three Spanish battleships left Cadiz, Spain, on Wednesday for Cuba. The licet includes the Infanta Maria Theresa, the Cristobal Colon and the Destructor. The first two are armored cruisers and the last named is a torpedo boat destroyer. It is persistently announced that Spain considers all propositions looking to her giving up Cuba on a money basis as absurd. At a mass meeting held in Cleveland, Ohio, on Wednesday, resolutions were adopted calling upon the president to put a stop to Cuban butcheries. The New York Journal claims to have information from Washington to the effect that the United States has purchased from Denmark the three islands of St. Thonms, St. John and St. Croix, along with two cruisers and three torpedo boat destroyers, all lbr Judge Gage's Itecord. Columbia Register, Tuesday: Judge Gage has made a good record during his short service. The court iu Darlington county has just adjourned, and he has sentenced 10 prisoners. Fourteen of these go to the chaingang, and Sherill" Searboro brought two others k to the penitentiary yesterday. Both of these were murderers. \V. Bartow James, white, for the murder of Henry Sutton, colored, five years. Brooks Mclver, colored, for the murder of Peter Murray, colored, three years. It is rather remarkable that a jury iu South Carolina would convict a white man for the murder of a Negro ; such has been the case, and the good people of Darlington county are to be complimented for their good citizenship. SPAIN STANDS FIRM, Is >Tot Disposed to Give Up Without a Struggle. Tlie President Seems to Despair of Peace. The Fact That the Flying .Squadron at Hamilton Roads Is Getting Ready to Sail, Seems to Indicate That the Administration Has Decided to Intercept the Torpedo Flotilla. Special dispatch to the Yorkvillc Enquirer. Washington, April i.? Spain's reply to the demands of the president has been received, and it is wholly unsatisfactory, in that it makes no concessions whatever. The cabinet has just gone in session for the purpose of considering the reply. The president has already stated openly that the situation is now more serious than ever, and has promised to make a public statement this afternoon immediately after the cabinet reaches a conclusion as to what is best to be done. Hampton Roads, April i.? Pursuant to orders just received from Washington, all the ships of the flying squadron here are getting up steam so as to be ready to sail at a moment's notice. Their destination, if any has been fixed, is a matter of conjecture. A dispatch from Philadelphia says that the Minneapolis left that place a few hours ago, and is coming at full speed to join the squadron here. Received at 2.00 P. M. Madrid, April i.?Spain has definitely concluded to make no further concessions to the United States. Received 5.10 P. M. Washington, April i.?All negotiations with Spain now closed. The Maine incident has begun to loom up more prominently than at any time this week. The president is now engaged in writing another message to congress, and members of the foreign affairs committee of the senate have intimated that the Maine incident will be made the basis of a declaration of war. The members of the cabinet are collecting for another meeting to be held at once. It has ?? ? been given out from sources of high authority, that the Hampton Roads squadron has been instructed to intercept the torpedo flotilla. The information comes from Madrid, by way of London, that the Pope is doing all he can to settle the difflcuties but is meeting with little encouragement. TALKS BUSINESS. An Editor Who Can See No Sense In Being Everybody's Hobby Horse. Abbeville Press and Banner. The newspapers at Abbeville have been publishing all notices of pensions, including the names of pensioners, without charge; hut we are not doing that kind of business any longer. Speaking for this newspaper particularly, we have quit doing a great deal of the free work, which we formerly did. As a matter of fact, every line of type that goes into this newspaper costs something, and we have adopted the rule of charging for matters that others are more interested in than we are. In the years that are past, the politicians made great drafts on us for the free publication of matters in which they were chiefly interested. There is neither justice nor equity iu any such a course. Hereafter the politician who seeks the benefit of these columns to aid his vote-catching principles, or who may desire the advancement of personal interests, must pay the cash. First-class politicians do not desire to (lendheat the printers, and little second-class half-handed brothers need not attempt to sponge on us for their glory and fame. Of course we do not expect to charge a high price for our services in helping the cause of any politician; but he must pay at least the actual cost, with a fair per cent, for profits. uni'TII CIIMII.IVA \K\Vti The ruritiin.

Abbeville Medium : Many pleasant "\ words about Due West, the education- ,a al headquarters of the Seceders of the " south, were thrown into the sympo- e sium of speeches made at the Bryan reception in the Female College chapel on the evening of "Bryan Day In Ers c kine College." The Hon. George D. ? Tillman, in a speech full of quaint 5 humor, said he thought "Long Town" would be a better descriptive name than "Due West," for the place seemed to him to be about four miles long and about 50 yards wide. Senator McLaurin recalled that something had been said about persons who were on the "broad road that leads to perdition," but he wanted to say to Mr. S Bryan that when he reached Due West ri he was at a stopping place on "that ^ narrow path that leads to heaven." a The senator was also glad to say to e the people that Mr. Bryan was on the "gtumpy road that leads to the White House." Representative J. J. Lentz, of Ohio, told bow when first invited to Due West he had got out his maps and sought to locate the place with reference to other places of which he had heard ; but that now, since becoming acquaiuted with Due West, he had E learned that when he wished hereafter to locate a place, the proper question ^ would be, How far is it from Due ^ West ?" ti AT THE CHURCHES. baptist.
