SO,OOO VOLUNTEER TROOPS
THE SENATE PASSES THE EMER-
 GENCY VAR MEASURE,

An Extended Discussion Upon It-Senator
 Bacon Suggests That Bill be so Amended
 That No Man be Compelled to Enlist by
 Vote of Company of Which He Is a Mem-
 ber-senator Hawley Explains That No
 Volunteer Military Organization Can be
 Forced to Go Out of the Country to Per-
 form Service.
 Washington, April 21.-Three impor- tant measures were passed by the sen- ate this afternoon, all of which relate largely to the national defense. The sundry civil bill, which has been pend ing for two weeks and which carries a large amount of money intended to be used in the strengthening of the coun- try's coast defenses, was finally pass ed The naval appropriation bill was immediately taken up and practically completed, although, pending the dis cussion of an amendment concerning the price of armor plate, the bill was displaced in order that the measure temporarily increasing the military es- tablishment of the United States in time of war might be considered. Af- ter a long discussion of the bill as amended by the committee it was passed. A joint resolution was adopt ed giving the president power to pre- vent the ,exportation of coal and other war material.
 MT. Hawley brought up the volun- teer army bill, calling for S0000 troops, which was considered by unanimous consent. The bill has been fully de- scribed in these dispatches, together with to-days amendments by the sen ate military committee. MT. Bacon of Georgia suggested that the bill be so amended as to provide that no man in the militia service should be compelled to enlist by the vote of the company of which he is a member. MT. Hawley explained that nobody could be forced to enlist as a volunteer in the service of the United States, and there would be no practical difficulty in carrying into effect the provisions of the bill. He further explained that no volunteer military organization could be forced to go out of the country to perform
 service. MT. Pettus explained that the matter suggested by MT. Bacon would be arranged by the governors of states.
 No individual company or regiment would be compelled to enter the ser vice, although the great body of them would doubtless volunteer. Mir Sew ell paid high tribute to the state mill itia organizations as efficient, we'll armed and well equipped soldiers. The service of these soldiers, he said, the war department was anxious to secure at once. MT. Faulkner said that the militia organizations throughout the
 country thoroughly understood the matter, as they had been in conference
 with the war department concerning it. The bill, after an extended discus sion, was passed.
 Consideration of the naval appropri- ation bill was then resumed in order
 that certain amendments might be off, fered MT Tillman secured the adop- tion of an amendment providing for an electric light and power plant at cost of $20,000, and for the storage and handling of coal at cost of $20000, both at the naval station at Port Roy at 5:05 D. n., on motion of MT. Quay, went into executive session and ad- ! journed at 7:06.

Yield and Cuba Will Always be Spanish. Havana, April 21.-The Official Ga- zette publishes an extra containing the following:
 "The general government of the island of Cuba to the inhabitants of Cuba: Without any reason or legality; without the least offense on our part and at a time when they have received from us only propositions of friendship the United States are forcing us into war just at the moment when quietude began to settle over the country, when production was f1ourishing, commerce taking courage and peace approaching, with the cooperation of all classes and all parties under the new institutions granted by the mother country.
 Such proceeding is without prece- dent in history. It evidently manifests the bogus politics of the republic, dem- onstrating the trickery plans and pur- poses that have always been nourished against Spain's sovereignty in Cuba, which the enemy has been conspiring for nearly century to destroy. Spain still deplores this state of affairs, but she accepts it with all the energy in spired by a national history which will never yield. If the United States want the island of Cuba let them come and take it. Perhaps the day is not far dis tant in which these Carthegenians of America will find their Zama in this island of Cuba, which will never be anything but Spain's.
 'It is our turn to have the honor of defending her and we will call upon you to do 1t. To arms then, fellow countrymen, to arms. There will be a place for all in the fight. Let all CO., operate and contribute with the same firmness and enthusiasm to fight the eternal enemy of the Spanish name, emulating the exploits of our ancestors who always exalted high their courage and honor. To arms. Cry thousand times 'Vive Espana, Viva Fl Key AL fonso KILT; 'Vive Le Reina Regente'; 1; Viva Cuba always Spanish (Signed)
 "Your governor general,
 Ramon Blanco."

 Orders From Washington.


 Orders From Washington.
 Key West, Fla, April 21-At seven o'clock this evening Captain Sampson had received no orders from Washing ton relative to sailing. He was expect ing some such instructions.

It is not believed that the fleet will sail tonight, although it is probable that the start for Cuba will be made tomorrow.
 Just before this dispatch was filed it was ordered that steam be got up on the New York. This would enable her to make fourteen knots an hour, which Is greater speed than could be main- tained by the squadron as whole.

Consults Political Leaders.

Madrid, April 21.-Midnight. The queen regent has consulted with the respective political leaders and with the president of the senate. They ad- wise her that the existing adninistra- ton, without any modification, ought to continue to meet the difficulties of the situation. Senor Menrose and the Marquis D'Armijo, in substantially the same terms as Marshal Campos, de- clared to the queen regent their opirl- ion that it was reasonable and patriotic that the crown should continue to give full confidence to the liberal party. which expects cooperation and sup port from all other parties in the de- fense of the country.
 Madrid, April 21.-The following is the text of the note received by General Woodford from Senor Gullon:
 Dear Sir: In compliance with a painful duty I have the honor to. in form you that there has been sarlc- toned by the president of the republic resolution of both chambers of the United States which denies the legiti- mate sovereignty of Spain and threat ems armed intervention in Cuba, which is equivalent to declaration of war.
 The government of her majesty has ordered her minister to return. By this act the diplomatic relations hitherto existing between the two coun- tries and all official communications between their respective representa- lives cease.
 T am obliged to thus inform you so that you may make such arrangements as you think fit. beg your excellency to acknowledge receipt of this note at such time as you deem proper. Talk ing this opportunity to reiterate to you the assurance of my distinguished con sideration. (Signed)
 "P. Gullon."

Adding to the Navy.

The navy department to-day contin- ued the work of adding to the navy and purchased another ship at Norfolk as an auxiliary craft and some small yachts. The news of the actual begin ming of war was received with gravity at the department and there were many speculations as to the destination of the Spanish squadron. One sugges- tion was that it might cut off the fine battleship Oregon now on it's way from the Pacific coast round to join Captain Sampson's command. There is also some fear that the Oregon may be taken at a disadvantage by the Span- ish torpedo boat destroyer Temmerire, which is now lying at Buenos Ayres. Possibly with view to avoiding a con- flict in the Straits of Magellan, where she would be at a disadvantage the Oregon has been ordered to go around Cape Horn.

The mat ter was referred to the attorney gen eral and he replied that this govern ment should not interfere.

WORRY ABOUT THE SEABOARD.

A generation has passed since our country was at war, and some of the current anxieties expressed as to the safety of the seacoast suggest that fact. One of the latest alarms, for ex- ample, comes from Little Egg harbor, which thinks it may be selected as an object of attack by a Spanish feet
 While there should be no relaxation in the fertilization of the seaboard. es- pecially since perfecting it's fixed de- fences will release the ships for nov
 ing after the Spaniards, it may quiet apprehensions to observe a few facts. Spain's only base on this side Of the Atlantic is in Cuba and Porto Rico, and her forts there will probably be blockaded or captured To imagine that she has not only her own penin- sular coasts secure, but also those Of Cuba and Porto Rico, so that. with a navy far inferior to ours. her chief occupation will be patrolling our northern coasts, now demonstrating against the forts that shut up the east ern end of LoIg Island sound, now tossing shells here and there among the New Jersey watering places, and
