Washington, Oot. 1—Th» first m»*t
log of the oabtnet since the return of
tb* president from Massachusetts was
held today and attended by every
member exoept Qage, who Is not In
Washington.
Foreign affairs oooapled the greater
portion of the time given up to dls-
oneelcn, though the proeeoutlon of the
government's oase against the Uuloo
Pao flo Railroad company, also came
in for a good deal or consideration. I;
oan b* stated the details of the plane
of the government have been arranged
at last.
The Spanish crisis was discussed at
some lei g'b. For some reason Min-
ister Woudford has BtlU left the gov-
ernment officially unadvised of the re-
cent happenings In Madrid. Thera
seems to be a general belief among
members of tbe president's official
family that the Madrid oriels oannot
b* expected to lojure oar relations
with Spain. This belief Is basad upon
tbe Idea that a conservative cabinet
suooeeds the Azoeraga ministry. The
worst that oan bapptn will be a con-
tinuation ot th* present line of polloy,
for Spain is too near an end of bef
financial resonroea to put forth more
strenuous efforts to subdue tbe Cu-.
bans. On tb* other hand, It Is be-
llevtd a liberal ministry will almost
oartalnly offer a good opportunity for
bringing th# present war to an and.
The conditions In Hawaii, ae reveal-
ed to Admiral Beardslee, was talked
of, and with evident satisfaction tbe
oiblnet received th* admiral s state-
ment. In all bis euy In Hawaiian wa
tera, his relations with Japanese offi-
cials were of the most pleasant nature
In no oas* bad there been tbe slightest
exhibition of purpose on tbe part of
the Japan oommandar to attampt any
oonp and there were constant ex-
changes of visits between offioers of
tbe Japanese and United States war
ships. __
