The International Crisis. The opinion was expressed by men high in authority, both at Madrid and Washing- ton, that as a result of the past week's negotiations Spain and the United States were nezrer war than ever before. There were numerous conferences at Madrid be- tween Minister Woodford and Premier Sa- gasta and between Sagasta and representa- tives of other European powers, all look- ing toward the maintenance of peace. It was reported that the pope had taken a hand in the negotiations and that he had induced Spain to grant an armistice to the insurgents pending a review of the whole question by the powers of Europe, which would perhaps end in the with- drawal of Spain from the island, Then came advices trom London that England positively declined to be a party to any such scheme, and this was followed by an announcement that the Spanish cabinet, after a iong and important session, had finally determined that Spain would not recede from its original position to pre- serve the integrity: of her territory at all hazards. It was announced that diplomatic relations between this country and Spain were practically broken off ‘and Minister Woodford was in readiness to leave at a moment's notice. He sent his wife and the members of his staff to France on ‘Thursday. Strong corroborative evidence of the nearness of hostilities was furnished by the action of the six great powers of Europe in having their representatives at Madrid and Washington call on the respec- tive governments of the two countries and express the hope that peace might be main- tained. President McKinley's reply to the representatives of the powers who called on him was firm and dignified. He shared in the expressions of hope for the mainte- nance of peace, but added that the condi- tons in Cuba were insufferable. Premier Sagasia announced that his government had no intention of opening further nego- tiations. President McKinley prepared a message on the situation which was to have been sent to Congress on Wednesday, Lut was postponed at the last moment at the cabled suggestion of Consul General Lee that more time be allowed the Ameri- cans in Cuba to get away. The delivery of the message was postponed until Mon- y in consequence. It was authoritatively asserted that the message would recom- mend immediate intervention to stop the war in Cuba, and that this would be con- strued by Spain as a practical declaration of war. Several of the consuls and many Americans left the island during the lat- ter part of the week. The greatest activ- ity was maintained by the military arms of both governments.

Sampson's fleet at ey West was also stripped for war. The Spanish torpedo flotilla was ordered to re- main at the Cape de Verde Islands until joined by three armored cruisers, and then to proceed to Cuba. Great activity was displayed in Spanish navy yards, and mer- chant vessels were fitted out with rapid- firing guns and manned by strong crews, commanded by officers of the royal navy. A military draft was issued in Cuba re- quiring every able-bodied Spaniard to reg- ister for military duty. A torpedo expert of London published a signed statement to the effect that he sold a number of mines to the Spanish government to be used in Havana, and explained that the explosion of one of those mines was im- possible except through the connivance of the officials in charge of them. The ensign was formally taken down from the battle ship Maine, and her official existence ended. Spzeches were made in the United States Senate on the Spanish-Cuban situa- tion, all urging prompt recognition of Cu- ban independence. The House passed the bill empowering the President to erect temporary fortifications upon land without requiring the title to be legally completed. Representative Lentz of Ohio attacked the President in a speech in the House, charg- ing the chief executive with delaying his message in order to aid certain stock- jobbing operations; Representative Grosve- ror replied, and an excited debate ensued; Representative Lentz was later condemned by representatives of all parties.

A report was circulated about Anacostia last evening that the officials of th» Capital Railway Company had subjected a horse to an electrical shock at Congress Heights. This was done, it was said, in order to de- termine whether such a condition could oc- cur from the electrical curr2nt now operat irg the line, as is alleged to have been the case in the accident to John W. Middleton's horse last Saturday on the contact sysiem of the company. Investigation failed to confirm the report, but it was stated that veterinarians were interesting themselves in the horse for some cause. Mr. A. E. Randle, president of the Capital Raii Company, as well as the vice president, is absent from the city, and no statement could be procured from either, but Mr. B. H. White, superintendent of the line, stated pesitively that the horse had not been sub- jected to an electrical shock. He admitted that the horse had been shot yesterday evening. The secretary of the company said, when interviewed today, that he knew nothing of the matter, nor did he know why the horse was taken to Congress Heights. Whatever may have been done, he said, was done by the veterinary surgeons. The story is that the animal was taken inside the car sheds at Congress Heights, was there touched with a live wire carry- ing 500 volts, and was then shot by a vet- erinary surgeon. Three of its legs, it is said, were severed and carried awa: Sergeant Anderson of the police force is making an investigation, a CONDENSED LOCALS. The District Commissioners have removed John T.
