NO PRESIDENTIAL VETO. Washington, April 16.—The cabi- net meeting yesterday was devoted to a general discussion of the Cuban situation, but without anythiog of importance resulting therefrom. The government has received no inti- mation of the preparation of any note on the part of the powers, and mem- bers of the cabinet do not think the effort obviously taking by Spain to concentrate the powers ip her favor will result in their agreeing to any particular line of action. ‘The present position of the admin- istration is that of awaiting congres- sional action witliout attempting to influence it or postpone its decision. The President, it can be stated, is not at all likely to veto any resolution that congress may adopt on the Cuban question. The administration does not believe congress will pass a reso- lution for the recognition of inde- pendence of the insurgents, but if it should, @ veto of it would be very im- probable.
