IN THE SENATE.
Great Excitement Awaited the Message Day
Given Up TO Sundry Civil Bill.

Washington. April 6.-When the Sen
ate convened, today, intense expectancy
amounting to excitement prevailed both
on the floor and in the galleries. The
Presidents message had positively
been promised and it's coming was
awaited with genuine anxiety. Ten
minutes after the Senate convened con-
sfderation Of the sundry civil bill was
resumed and with the exception of s
minutes consumed by an executive
session. in which Senator Davis an
nounced that no message would be sent
in, today, the entire session was con-
sumed by the appropriation bill. 1t
was practically completed when laid
aside for the day.
Allison asked unanimous consent that
the Senate resume consideration of the
sundry civil bill. This was agreed to
and amid buzz in the galleries. the
clerk began to read the bill.
When that part Of the bill providing
that no part of the appropriation for
Howard University, in this city. should

reading. He said that everywhere the

Washington, April 6.-After waiting
patiently in the galleries and corridors
OF the House, for hours, many of them
from O'Clock this morning, until
shortly before 3 o'clock this afternoon,
the thousands who had come to hear
the PRESIDENTS Cuban message turned
away weary and disguised at the de-
lay. Never before was there such dis
appointment at the Capitol. The men,
be1S felt il even more keenly than the
spectators and for two hours afterward
they stood about the Hobbies discussing
the latest phase of the situation. The
news of the proposed armistice which
came on the heels of the announcement
that Gen. Lee had cabled for delay re-
ceived quite as much attention as the
request of Lee.
The debate in progress in the House
over the army reorganization bill at
tracted little or no. attention. 1t was
completely overshaddowed by the more
absorbing question. Consitiera BILE op-
position to the bill develeped on the
ground that provision for An extern
sion of the regular army into war to
100000 men would be inimical to the
National Guard and the volunteer
forces upon which the country had
heretofore raised in time of stress.
There will be a strong effort to recofnmit

~ l. itt [NeAtfldttd ffeSS.b
Washington. April 6-Swift as a can
mons flash was the change in the Gu
ban situation, today. The galleries of
! Congress We're crowded senators and
representatives We're anxious and aei-
tated, even the diplomatic corps was in
a ferment. awaiting a message from
the President of the United States to
the Congress of the American people
that might mean war, when, with ex
cltement at the very highest. the word
quickly passed that there would be no
message. today
Its suddenness stunned the puhlic
which heard the news in distorted
forms, and amazed the veteran mem
bers Of Congress. Ultimately it became
known that not only would there be no
message. today. but no message. this
week, and that it was at least posi-
bllity that the message written and an
proved might never go to Congress.
The first reason for the delay was
that the administration received adj
vices from Gen, Lee at Havana. indi-
eating that all Americans could not be
gotten off the island, today. and would
he in grave peril if the message proceed
cd Their departure.
The second reason. and perhaps
equally potent With the other. slowly
drifted into public comprehension late
in the day chiefly through the medium
of published Associated Press dis
patches from Madrid. for extreme reti-
cence was maintained on the subject
by the few in Washington who knew
the facts and even cabinet officers were
unadvised on the subject.
This important news was that the
Spanish government. after what plain
~ had been the most exciting times in
inner Spanish circles at Madrid. had
decided to reopen the case closed, 50
far as this government was concerned.
by the refusal of Spain to make salts
factory response to the representations
made by the United States last week.
and in order to avert impending war.
had decided to make concessions here
tofore refused.
What will be the final outcome, il is
too early to say, but the aspect of af-
fairs certainly is considerably more
pacific and sufficient TO renew the hone
OF the President in a solution of the
Cuban question satisfactory to the
American people, and achieve without
bloodshed.
The details remain to he worked ont
but it is expected that between now
and Monday Il clearer light will be
thrown ON the future by the action at
Madrid Of which one important fea-
ture at least is the declaration Of an
by the Queen Regent Of
Spain.
This arm.stice by the Queen Regent,
it is expected will lead to the ultimate
Independence of Cuba from Spanish
rule, but by what intermediate steps
perhaps even the governing powers do
not at this time know. Much it is sup
posed. will depend upon the Cuban in
surgeufs and the people of the two

t'rom Our Special Correspondence
Washington April 6.-President Nc
kinley is at last convinced that war is
sure to come. Until within the past "a
hours he had hoped that out of all the
complications peace might in time re-
suit and that the nearer Spain and the
United States seemed to be approach
ing clash at arms, the greater would
be the chance that European pressure
would compel Spain to yield completely
TO American demands. That hope has
now been dispelled.
A cabinet officer said, tonight. that
neither the President nor any of the
any other purpose than war He said
all We're convinced that Sagastas only
object in suggesting various plans for
compromise. was to play for delay in
order that Spain might be in a better
tactical position when hostlities actu-
ally began. II is a question now of
