A Washington special says: The
president Monday sent congress the
following message recommending a
declaration of war against Spain:
The senate and house of represen-
tatives of the United States of Amer
ica-I transmit to the congress for its
consideration and approval copies of
correspondence recently had with the
representatives of Spain in the United
States with the United States Minister
at Madrid and through the latter with
the government of Spain, showing the
action taken under joint resolution APP
proved April goth, 1898, 'for the rec
ognition of the independence of the
people Of Cuba, demanding that the
government of Spain relinquish its au-
thority and government in the island
of Cuba and to withdraw its land and
naval forces from Cuba and Cuban
waters and directing the president of
the United States to use the land and
naval forces of the United States to
carry these resolutions into effect"
Upon communicating to the Spanish
minister in Washington the demand
which it became the duty of the exec
utiye to address to the government of
| Spain in obedience to said resolution,
the minister asked for his passports
and withdrew. The United States
minister at Madrid was in turn notified
by the Spanish minister for foreign
affairs that the Withdrawal of the
Spanish representative from the United
States had terminated diplomatic rela
tions between the two countries anC
that all official communications between
their respective representatives ceased
