Senator Mason Makes a Vig- orous Speech Denoune- ing Waiting Policy. DECISIVE ACTION EXPECTED TOMORROW. Predicted That Congress Will Take Action if McKinley Does Not Adopt Stern Policy’ SPAIN HAS BOUGHT TWO MORE WARSHIPS Washington, March 29—It appears | today that the president is disposed to shift the responsibility of solving the difficulty with Spain upon the shoulders of congress. His seeming delay is causing great dissatisfaction among the members of congress, and that body may precipitate trouble, ‘The whole subject is apparently left | to congress to decide, and in its present temper any radical action would not be at all surprising. It) now remains to be seen if the presi- | dent can control congress and secure the delay that he evidently desires. | Spanish advices say that Minister | Woodford will bave a meeting with Premier Sagasta this afternoon for a discussion of Cuban affairs, Spanish | papers take a very hopeful view of this meeting, and predict that it will | result in a harmonious settlement of | the present difijculties, and that war | will be averted. | A majority in both houses of con- | gress favors forcible intervention,and that at once. No compromise will be tolerated j There is a general feeling that if} the president does not announce a stern policy tomorrow, that congress itself will take action independent of | the president. In the meantime war preparstions are being hurried as fast as ever. Spain today bought two warships in Italy, An American agent is in Italy also negotiating for war vessels. Washington, March 2,—This has been a day of tremendous excitement in congress, greater even than yes- terday, Four resolutions were intro- duced in the senate declaring for the} dependence of Cuba, and for war| with Spain. They were introduced by | Senators Allen,of Nebraska, Foraker, of Ohio, Rawling, of Utah, and Frye, | of Maine. They were all referred to) committees, Senator Maxon made a vigorous speech urging an immedi- | ate declaration of war and declaring that the waiting policy of the presi-| dent would rum the Republican party. Mason was loudly applauled, | McKinley's friends state that his policy is as firm as ever, but that he es to secure independence of Cuba without a war. | It is predicted that decisive action} cannot be delayed longer than to- morrow. TOMORROW IS THE DAY. McKinley Will Send the Entire Cu- ban Question to Congress. Washington, March 29.—The pres-| ident has decided to submit the en- tire Cuban question to congress to- morrow. any will turn over all the correspond- ence pertaining to the question, It is said the president has decided h powder that}on this course in view of the irre- dental profes-|sistable revolt against a compromise Besides being a pleasant) of any kind. the toilet, its continued Lee Fears Kiots.

This is a lie out of whole cloth. is indignantly denied by the Cubans here, and later reports say it has no foundation, nor will any such pro- position from Spain ever be consider. ed seriously Spain Conciliatory. Washington, March 29—The spe- cial cabinet meeting which was called yesterday was largely devoted to the reading of the president’s message and the late messages from Minister Woodford, Although the details of these dispatches are not made public it is known that they are reassuring in character, and give a basis for the belief that the present strained rela- tions may yet be satisfactorily re- lieved. Itis undoubtedly true that Spain is willing to make important con- cessions to the United States, and is willing to go even so far as to agree to withdraw her troops from Cuba on conditions which, if not satisfactory to this government, are more liberal and conciliatory than anything hith- erto received, and clearly indicate a purpoee to avoid war even if to at- tain that end she is compelled to make sacrifices never before consid- erel, Notwithstanding these hopeful signs the negotiations have not pass- ed the danger point, nor is it believed that the government will accept any compromise that does not involve prompt cessation of hostilities, even if the question of the future govern- ment of Cuba be left to future nego- tiations, Congress Aroused, Washington, March 29—The mem- bers of the committee on foreign af- fairs have served notice that they will not agree to furnishing supplies to Cubans unless the president gives assurances that he will follow this up at once with a declaration of inde- pendence or forcible intervention. The feeling in the house broke loose upon the reading of the report. Yesterday the president seemed but achip on the ocean of excitement. He will be utterly helpless if he at- tempts to check the tide which is rising in the two houses. Representative Sayers, of Texas, who is the minority leader on the ap- propriations committee, stands pat and refuses to brook delay in settling with Spain, He says; “I will not vote for an appropria- tion to furnish food for the suffering Cubans unless it be accompanied by armed intervention. Conditions in my judgment aré such that no such appropriations should be w: hy congress unless so accompanied in order to put an end to the strife. Unless this be done, the practical effect of any contribution by our government to feed Spanish subjects would be so much substantial aid to Spanish government. Spain could well afford for the United States to support her starving non-combatants, while her soldiers were fighting those revolutionists who were in arms against her authority, s,in wy opinion, is the true situation, and the administration should face it and deal with it accordingly.’’ Orders were given at the navy de- partyent to graduate the first class at Annapolis on April 9th, and to graduate the second class @ year be- fore it 1s programed to finish. The second class has been been advised to prepare for its final examinations. TEN THOUSAND GROATIANS, Tender Their Service If We Have To Fight Spain.
