The Secretary of State himself Is not . content to rest quietly in the face of the repeated dissensions to his statement. . He has not been slow to refer to the posi tion of Senator Morgan as a clearly In consistent one, and referring last evening to the answer made by Mr. .Morgan in the 8enate yesterday to a question by Bena. . tor Hill that It was preposterous to qucs- tion the right of Congress to recognize the independence of Cuba, said Mr, .
