houses of Congress. The House repeal bill
was passed by the votes of many who
wished to get rid of the injurious features
of the present law. The amendments TO
this bill placed in il by the Senate commit
tee on the District of Columbia were the
result of deliberate consideration, and while
they eliminate the Objectionable features Of
the highway act they retain portions of tho
law which are generally regarded with fa-
yog.

The Madrid correspondent of the Daily
Telegraph says there is reason to believe
that certain number of Spanish troops

Most people believe that SPANS SOW

Despite the governments large majority

Woodford and the Spanish ministers show
pointed reserve concerning the contents
of the Spanish memorandum; but Ii is
said to be a remarkably strong re-state-
nlent of the Spanish case on all the points
raised by the United States and especial
w in regard to the pacihcation of Cuba
from the Spanish point of view.
'In political and diplomatic circles the
situation is deemed critical. The Impair
cial says the government has received ex-
cellnte impressions on the favorable atti-
tude of European continental pow
ers whose friendly dispositions
toward Spain have been strenth-
ened by the fact that the
United States and England have lately
been drawn closer by their common inter-
ests in China. 1t asserts that the French
and Russian governments have asked
Spain to state clearly the maximum con-
cessions she can make to Cuba and the
United States with a view of enabling
those powers to exercise pressure
at Washington in favor of the
preservation of peace and the
Spanish rule in Cuba.
Eel Liberal says that Spain must trust
solely to her own energies. / understood
dominant in diplomatic circles and among
many Spanish statesmen. On the other
hand the ministers and their supporters
seem still to entertain some hope that
President Mckinley may hesitate and
again attempt 10 stem the war current

Passengers From Havana.

Havana, April 1.-To-morrow's Plant
Line steamer will consent TO take passen.
gers to Key West or Tampa only when
the same have lived ten years in yellow
fever districts or have had the disease.
This works hardships on those who would
not personally fall within the rule, but
have children less than 1O>years of age,
who would not be exempt from quarantine
regulations
Many of those affected by the inhibition
are bitter in their denunciations of an ap-
plication of the law one month earlier than
during the three previous years. They in
sist that the laws are only enforced to hurt
Americans and to give fees to local medical
officers. However this may be, the fact re-
mains that none but the immune can leave
Havana for an available port except New
York. since no steamers except those of
the Plant Lane now touch at Key West,
and the Plant Line will only take i'm
mune" passengers, only a few of whom
have to leave.

blown up in a harbor supposed to be
friendly. There was great danger now,
he declared, in trusting to diplomacy rath-
er than to our own strong arm. The great
questions now was to stop the hostile fleet
approaching our shores.\ If we were de-
pending upon diplomacy 1t would prove
broken reed. The best protection at such
q time he urged, was aggression, not to
wait idly resting upon hopes that had no
foundation. He declared that we should
strike while we had the advantage. War
between nations was not like contest be-
tween equally matched gladiators. The
victory belonged in war to the country
that best and first prepared for it and see
ing farther into the future struck first
where the blow would prove most effec-
tive.
Let us protect ourselves" continued
Mr.. De Almond, "by striking before we
are stricken. (Applause) Let US not wait.
We have waited too long. I hope that
proper measures of energy are on foot,
and that what 1 apprehend as danger will
be avoided
Mr. De Almond closed with an appeal
against further delay.

priation bill, the House, at O'Clock, ad-

Havana, April 1.-Capt. Gen. Blanco last
night called the colonies of the volunteer
regiments to the palace and consulted with
them He impressed upon the officers 1.-THE
necessity for greater union than ever in
these troubled times, and recommended
that the highest discipline be maintained,
and that more patriotism be shown. 1t is
said that the Captain Generals views were
agreed to with enthusiasm and that the
officers pledged to Spain their lives, for
tunes and sacred honor.
The Union Constitutional says, editorial
ly this morning: THE necessity for con-
centration having disappeared, Capt. Gen.
Blanco's decree properly does away with
it, 1t says the government will provide for
the reconcentradoes i'll a proper manner,
and the lieing charity of the United States
is not needed"
The Diario de la Marina lauds the Cap
tain Generals decree saying: THE govern
ment shows a disposition to relieve the
sufferings caused by the war; but it must
work patiently and long, owing to the fact
that the war itself causes more difficulties
and time is required to give strength to
the relief measures"
