THE CUBAN QUESTION.
THE ATTITUDE OF THE UNITED STATES.
By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. Washington, December 8. President Cleveland states that the suggestion that the United States should purchase Cuba is worth consideration if Spain is willing to sell. It was, he said, impossible that America's expectant attitude could be maintained indefinitely, and higher duties than the obligation to Spain may compel her to intervene. Mr Olney, Secretary of State, in a separate report to Congress, declared that the Cubans at present had not founded an effective system of local government, and he warned Spain that a decided change in policy by the United States was imminent. London, December 8. The Kingston (Jamaica) authorities have seized the filibustering steamer Anattabaya with arms for Cuba.
