WASHINGTON, April s.
The Senate having adjourned yesterday
until Monday, there are few developments of
a startling or important character. The
situation is one of waiting until Monday,
when decisive action will be taken ON the
part of Congress, Immediately upon the
is no longer any doubt as to the purposes of
this government with respect to the situation
in Cnba War; even in the opinion of the
peace advocates, is inevitable, except in the
unlooked-for event of surrender on the
part of Spain.
Assistant Secretary of State Day this
afternoon said that all Americans in Cuba
desiring to leave will positively be out of the
Island by tomorrow Saturday. He added
that it could be reiterated that General Lee
would leave Havana ON that date. He has
been recalled by his government.
The Spanish American situation is re-
garded here to-day as even more grave than
at any time heretofore.
1t is learned that the United States Consuls
at Porto Rico are about to leave their posts
under sealed orders
The Cabinet meeting to-day lasted one hour
and half, with full attendance of the
members. The Presidents demeanor was
grave throughout, and the proceedings indi
cate very clearly there were no expectations
on the part of the Administration that wal
would be averted.
The House Foreign Affairs Committee me
at eleven o'clock this morning, and continued
the hearing of Mr., Qussada, president of tn,
Cuban Junta, as to the status of the govern
ment in Cuba. He reiterated his statemen
that declaration of war against Spain b!
the United States would be a declaration
against all Spain's subjects, and if not couples
with the recognition of Cuba would includ
the insurgents.

THE GOVERNMENT
ATTITUDE UNCHANGED
WAsu1NGroN, April s.

Governments Attitude UNCHANGED.
The reply Of this government, which
had previously been read and approved
by members of the cabinet is not con-
sldered as indicating any change u the
fixed purpose of the president To inter
vene at once i'm Cuba, nor is IT believed
that it was the expectation of a ma
jority of the foreign representatives
present that the United States should
change its policy on regard the Joint
note as other than an expression i'm be-
half of peace, and without special sig
nificance. SO far as known i'm admin
istration circles no further representa-
tions on this subject are expected. No
Nffsrs of mediation on the part of any
European power has been received and
there is high authority for the state
ment that none would be accepted If
proffered.
At the capitol the situation was ar
IDENTIFY discussed among individuals
and came up i'm public debate in both
houses. Senator Morgan, of Alabama,
said in discussing an amendment to the
sundry civil appropriation bill that he
was ready to vote for a declaration of
war. In the house a significant declara-
tion was that of General GrosvenOr,
who declared he believed war was in
evitable. In fact the speeches made by
General Grosvenor in answer to
charges against the administra-
tion by Mr.. Letz Of Ohio, was
an important contribution to the
news of the day. The Importance of
General Lees kilograms are considered
by members not to have been over
estimated, and the impression that the
president was amply justified in with
holding his message became a convic-
tion. This fact was emphasized by the
adjournment until Monday of both
houses.
The opinion in the senate and house
is that war must come. Even the most
optimistic of the conservatives have
given up hope Of a peaceful settlement
A great deal of consideration was given
by senators and representatives, to the
form of action. On this point there is a
wide divergence Of opinion but It has
assumed two distinct propositions. one
is the recognition Of independence of the
! island, coupled with armed interven-
tion to drive out the Spaniards, and
the other armed Intervention with a
declaration that Cuba should be free,
the desire on the part of those favor
! ing the latter plan being to avoid
| recognizing the insurgents and their
| government, or any government until
the United States has control of the
! island.
The Presidents Plan.
The latter plan is said to be that of
the president, and efforts are being
made to have it adopted, so that there
will be no division between the eX-
ecutive and legislative branches of the
government. Fear is expressed thai
there may be a long debate in the sen
ate If some compromise is not agreed
upon before the committee on foreign
relations makes its report.
Both foreign committees were in ses-
sion during the day extending their in
quiries as to conditions in Cuba. Mr.
Quesada, of the Cuban junta, gave
the house con mittee the reasons why
recognition of independence was de-
sired by the Cubans.

Madrid, April sth.-The reports talegraphed

London Expects War.

London, April s.-The general tone of the
London press is that the situation affords
little hope that peace will continue. The
Times refers to the appeal of the European
diplomats to the American and Spanish gov
ernments as well intended, but, perhaps
not well considered"

"The Missing Link"

Representative Lorimer, of Illinois, gave
out some important information to-day in
reference to the destruction of the Maine,
which will probably be authenticated upon
the arrival here of General Lee. He said
the Consul-General at Havana, General Lee,
would make some startling disclosures when

did not come and they have waited

very anxious TO find someone to solve
the question If how much longer they
will have to wait. As the stranger
had no trouble in finding lot Ct
people to bite at his whisky deal, he,

indeed, that farmers will allow

out by County Attorney Rogers Charg.
ing him with operating a gaming
\ table on Slate creek in the vicinity of
,khV Wdterw0rks dam.
Curly" has been operating a crap
table on Slate creek for two or three
weeks past. He employed PICKET
guard to watch for the arrival Of off,
GERS. The guard was stationed in a
tree and when suspicious persons ap.
preached the signal would be given
and the dice would disappear and the
participants In the game would hide
out or appear TO be INDUCING in a
harmless game Of cards. This plan
worked successfully for some time and
officers were never able to catch them
gambling, The information upon
which the county attorney swOre out
the warrant for "Curly's" arrest was
furnished by The father Of one of the
boys who had been losing money on
the game. The place was crowded
every Sunday with young boys whose
parents would be surprised to learn
that they frequented gambling resorts
The county attorney thinks he has 4
good case against Weaverly, and he
says he will use his best efforts TO send
him to the prnitentiary.

enthal is the most enthusiastic man
in Kansas over the prospects Of
success for the fusion forces. Prob
ably there is no man in the party
who has a better knowledge of the
political conditions of the state
There certainly is no man better
qualified to say what the people are
thinking and talking about.
When asked today for his opinion
of the outlook he said "We will win
without a doubt"
When it was suggested TO him that
the people may not get to the polls he
said: Don't worry about that. Our
people have given more attention TO
party legislatln during the past
eighteen months than they have given
to anything else. After the adjourn
ment of the legislature the Republi.
cans flooded the state with charges
that our legislature did not accomplish
anything-that it was a Doodle legls-
lature, and all that. These attacks
on the legislature drew attention to
what 1t actually did do and our peo-
pie began to make comparisons be.
tween it and other legislatures.
The more the people studied the
laws passed by the last legislature the
more clearly they saw the Importance
OF what had been accomplished. |
have received 4 great many letters
from the people during the last eigh-
teen months and l think | know what
| am talking about Take, for In.
stance, the school text book law. For
twenty years a text book bill has
been before every legislature, and it
was always defeated until the last
legislature took hold of it and made
it law. Why wasn't it passed by
Republican legislatures? Simply he.
cause the book trust had more in.
fluence with Republican legislatures
thanit had with POpulist legislatures.
As | understand it, that bill saves a
quarter Of million dollars annually
to the people Of the state. Doyou think
for a moment that the voters will not
come out to the polls to keep this
measure on the statute book?
"Then, again, there is the stock
yards law. For great many years
the subject Of this law has been be-
fore the legislature and it never did
win until the fusionists became
masters Of legislation. This bill saves
hundreds of thousands of dollars to
the people OF Kansas. Do you think
for moment the people will not come
to the polls to keep this law on the
statute book? l could mention sew
eral other laws that the people wanted
and that they could not get until the
Peoples party took control of the
state, The people study these things
more than you think. You have mo-
idea of how many letters l have re-
ceived with reference to the achieve
ments of our party along the line of
legislation.
