Tbe cvbinet mat line to-dav waa de voted almost exclusively to discussion of Cuban matters. The Cuban constitution is expected to reach Washington about Fob ruary 15, when it will be placed before Coogress. Tbe President regards prompt action in this matter as of very great impcr tance and would not hesitate to call Congress together in extra session to consider it, should appear necessary. it Tbe need for prompt action on the Spooner Philippine bill regarded as scarcely less urgent than the disposition of tbe Cuban constitution, and the statement s made on high authority that in the event of the failure of either of these measures to receive the consideration of Congress, an extra session is almost inevitable.
