New York, March 28. A "Washing ton special to the Commcrclnl Adver tiser contains the following concern ing the new phase In the Cuban ques tion: "That the president has conducted his nesotlatlons with Spain In a spirit cf llrmness and dignity is evident from the advices received here from Madrid. The tone of the note presented by Min ister Woodford, as indicated in lust week's despatches from Washington nnd confirmed today In the despatches from the Spanish capital, meets with general approval among members of congress and the administration will be supported strongly In following up the policy which It has outlined. At the same time, without departing from this policy In Its ultimate pur pose, the president Is considering with some seriousness the plan for a temp oiary arrangement which shall permit a peaceful solution of the Cuban ques tion. The plan Is one which has been proposed by the Spanish minister, and Its substance Is this: Ample relief sup plies will be sent by the United State to the starving people of Cuba nnd an appropriation for this purpose will be asked from congress. The sending of this relief will not be antagonized by Spain. On the contrary, the Span ish authorities will help to distribute tho supplies if it is desired. The re concentrados will be allowed to leave the walled towns and to return to their homes and the policy inaugurated by "Weyler is to be abandoned. Spain will offer to the insurgents a plan of au tonomy as complete In every way as that now enjoyed by Canada. The Spanish flag will continue to float and there will be certain other evidences of Spanish control. Spain will have a Fhort time in which to put this echeme for autonomy Into practice. The in surgents will be led by the United States to nccept the Spanish offer with the understanding that Spain's good faith Is to be guaranteed by the United States. Should the insurgents agree to the plan then there will be an armis tice and both eldes will lay down their arms. It may be assumed that tho war would soon be at an end. Should the Insurgents decline tho proposition nnd insist on continuing their struggle for independence, then the United States government will wash Its hands of the whole business and inform the insurgent leaders that they will have to carry on their struggle at their own risk. This is substantially the plan as pro posed by the Spanish minister. There are details which It is not now neces sary to touch upon. It is supposed that it would afford a modus Vivendi. The plan has not been formally ac cepted by the administration. It is sup ported by a majority of the cabinet nnd is not unfavorably regarded by the president, but it Is not believed that he will adopt it unless he finds congress In a complaisant mood. In the last two days he has talked the question over which several leading senators, to all of whom he has said that in his view the scheme had merit, and to some of whom he has intimated that he did not see how the United States could well reject so fair a proposition. Some of the senators with whom he has spoken favor the scheme; others criticize It as a compromise craftily suggested by the government at Mad rid. It should be said that the plan is part of a scheme which tho president has in mind for gradually bringing to an end the Cuban troubles. After securing Spain's consent to the distribution of government supplies and the liberation of the reconcentrados, he would pro ceed In due time to request a complete disarming of both the Cuban and Span ish troops. Should this proposition be ncci'ded to, it is calculated that Span ish supremacy in the island would dls it.tegrate, nnd that independence would lie a matter ot only a short time. It Is supposed that the enlisted men In the Spanish armv, who were drafted from the Pvrennees, who are mostly half-grown hoys, and who have been unpaid and unfed for months, would selr.o the opportunity to break away from their military control and scatter over the Island, settling down with the native Cubans on terms of mutual good-will, and Intermarrying. This is a project which appeals to the fancy of those members of the administra tion .who are peaceably Inclined. Should it bo formally proposed in the senate It Is "believed that it would have the support of a majority In that body. "With few exceptions "Republican sen ators disapprove it. But It would have practically a unanimous support among Democrats and Populists. Sen ator Gorman heartily approves It from a political point of view. The Popu lists and the silver senators also re gard It with favor. A cliange has come over the silver contingent since It has dawned upon them that a war with Spain would not necessarily force- th'e United States to a silver basis. At first they "believed that this would be the Inevitable outcome of hostilities, but now they realize tho probability that a war would only result in fixing the gold standard more firmly. It has beep noticeable In the last few days that ttier belligerent spirit is modified. The reason for this Is not far to see. ajhoy h'opo that the Republican adnvn la,trftt,qp will bring negotiations to a Jame and Impotent conclusion and that when the fall elections come around the Spanish flag will still "bo flying In Havana and Cubun independence will "be as far off as ever. Such outcome as th,ls they are bum would work dlsas JMttlWdy.J;" ;RnpnbJlrnD pnrty ft till Royal makes the toad pure, wholeiotne and dellclou..

They my teckon without proper con ception of the feeling of the people, but this Is undoubtedly the line of thought they follow. It has been noticeable, too, that tho southern senators have grown luke warm. Senator llacon, of Georgia, has Introduced resolutions declaring for peace. Senator Morgan, of Alabama, has held his tongue, except when urg ing moderation. Other southern senators, like Jones, of Arkansas; Mcl.aurln, of South Caro lina; Bate, of Tennessee, nnd Caffery, of Louisiana, also deprecate radical measures. These southern men are ac tuated by varying motives. Some fear that a war would have a serious effect upon the exports of cotton, which would be subject to seizure on the high sens. Others are alarmed at the de fenseless condition of southern ports. New Orleans, Mobile and Charleston, In particular, would be vulnerable points. Still others fear the letting down of quarantine regulations and the Introduction of the dreaded yellow fever through tho passage of troops between Cuba and the United States. In short. It Is coming home to these southern men that a war with Spain would tell with peculiar force against the interests of their sections of the courtry, nnd their sympathy for Cuba Is terrptred with considerations for their own material welfare. In harmony with these are conserva tive senators on the Republican side, like Hanna and Elkins, Aldrlch, Alli son, Piatt and McMillan. In the house it would be a different story, for there the feeling is more in tense for Cuban independence, and even those who have hitherto been regarded as conservative are now Intol erant of any talk which looks like com promise. The president, therefore, in spite of his personal Inclination, and the pres sure from members of his cabinet and certain business interests. Is not by any means committed to the tempor ary autonomy scheme, and it is not at all certain that he will formally propose it t'o congress. One member of the cabinet, who Is not In sympathy with It, declared with emphasis that no such plan will be endorsed by the president. "That Is a question," he said, "for Spain and Cuba to settle between themselves. The administration Is not committed to any policy having In view an Implied betrayal of the Cuban cause. When the president's work is accom plished, the American people will be satisfied with the results." The administration is exceedingly anxious to hit upon a solution for the Cuban problem at once, and 'the nego tiations and cabled communications for the past two days have had this end In view. On Thursday the president in talking with leading members and senators was noticeably strong In his determination to have no settlement of tho question which did not involve the complete independence and the driving of Spain from the island. If he has considered with any favor propositions looking to a more moderate course, that is due to his Intense desire to close the business up at once. There is reason to believe that Spain. Is getting ready to surrender abso lutely If the United States takes a firm and unqualified position and that the suggestions emanating from the Span ish legation have for their object the letting down easy of the government at Madrid. The elections yesterday having returned a strong liberal ma jority to the Cortes with the assur ance of a continuance In power, the Spanish ministry may be more ready to come to the terms dictated by the administration. It Is known that the response of Spain to our latest note Is very peaceful and that it Indicates a disposition to yield to our demands. It looks now like a collapse on the part of the government at Madrid and it would not be strange to see a com plete surrender almost any day. Commiiminii Will Ito-Advc rlic Ilarrisburg, Maich 28.

ALLEGED BRIBERY AT PHILADELPHIA Official Inquiry Resumed Yesterday by Judges Gordon and Dregy. THE SCHUYLKILL WATER CASE Mnyor Clinrlc. F. Warwick nnd Dr. Mllllntn 1. Pepper Tell ol Thrlr Acqtinintnnco with Mr. Green. Uplmide of the Opinion 'I' lint Una In the Hnndaol Crccn nt Philadel phia nt the Hour tt Wat Given In IltirrUburg. Philadelphia, March 28. Judges Gor don and Bregy today resumed the judiclnl inquiry into the alleged bribery and Improper influences by which the Schuylkill Valley Water company's hill leasing the city water works was pushed In councils up to a vote on final passage, but which was then indefi nitely postponed. At the last session Councilman Walker admitted receiving $500 for his vote in committee nnd Councilman Clay charged Nelson G. Green, of New York, counsel for the company, of having told him that it cost 15,000 or $20,000 to get the bill through the water committee. Mayor Charles P. Warwick, and Dr. William P. Pepper, ex-provost of the University of Pennsylvania, told of their connection with Mr. Green. Dr. Pepper said he met him through Judge Henry Green, of the Pennsylvania Supreme court, who arranged a con ference at' the witness' office. Judge Green took no other part In the con ference than to introduce Nelson G. Green. The latter endeavored to secure witness' Influence In favor of the bill, but without success. GREEN WELL POSTED. Mayor Warwick said he was intro duced to Nelson G. Green by Judge Green. After the latter had left the mayor's office Nelson Green spoke of the Schuylkill Valley hill. The witness then expalned that at this time coun cils was endeavoring to pass a big loan bill In which $3,000,000 was to be used to improve the water supply. Coun cils' right to borrow the money was questioned and the matter was ulti mately carried to the Supreme court, where It was decided that the people must first authorize the loan. This was in May of last year. At 10 o'clock on the morning that the decision was handed down in Ilarrisburg, Nelson G. Green came Into witness' office and told him the decision of the Supreme court, at the same time handling him a copy of It. The mayor after glancing at it handed it back, whereupon Nel son Green told him the court had Just handed It down. The mayor asked hln) by what right he had the opinion in his possession at the hour it was being handed down In Ilarrisburg, and de manded that he hand it over to him. Green put It In his pocket and would not allow the mayor again to look at it. The inquiry was then adjourned un til Friday morning, the district attor ney saying tho Introduction of other testimony might interfere with the trial of Peter E. Smith tomorrow. Smith Is charged with attempted brib ery in connection with the bill. Judge Green and Nelson G. Green'are not related. LOPER ARRESTED.

Loper, vice president nnd general man ager of the Gurantors' Finance com pany, was placed under arrest this af ternoon charged with conspiracy to cheat and defraud the People's bank. The warrant was sworn out by Albert Tabor, receiving teller of the People's bank. When the hank closed its doors on March 25, it was said that Loper was Indebted to that Institution to the ex tent of $600,000, and that he bad given securities which were practically worthless. Cashier John S. Hopkins, of the Peo ple's bank, who made the loans to Loper, committed suicide Thursday morning, March 24, after he had learned that application had been made for a receiver for the Guaran tors' company. Mr. Loper subsequently entered ball before Magistrate Jermon In the sum of $23,000. His bondsmen are Henry C. Ellis, treasurer of the Guarantors' company, nnd Gilbert Rlter.

The city's fiscal year ends next Mon day noon and to the nearness of the d.ate Is due some anxiety as to the fate of many unapproved ordinances, reso lutions nnd other papers which have been waiting one week for final con sideration by the mayor. Among the measures are several of Importance, a number greater than usually awaits the mayor's decision at one time. To a Tribune reporter Mayor Bailey yesterday said he would finally dispose of nearly all the papers before him by Thursday night. He declined to Intimate what measures would not be given final disposition on or before that day, but they are presumed to be the two Nineteenth Sewer district or dinances, one creating the district and one providing for the sewers. Other papers he may be undecided about or have determined not to approve, but they are none of them important. That Mayor Bailey will sign the ordinance granting the Dunn Street Sprinkling company the exclusive right to sprinkle the streets, is presumed. Those measures' now awaiting signa ture and In which the greatest Inter est is centered are the following ordi nances: Providing for a sewer on North Main avenue, Providence road and Phllo street; providing for the pav ing of Providence road and North Main avenue from Court street to the city line; providing for sidewalks on West Linden street, between Ninth Btreet and North Main avenue; providing for sidewalks and paved gutters and the setting of curbstones on the easterly side of Clay avenue, between Myrtle nnd Pine streets.
