Washington. April s.-The opinion al
Inost universally held in Washington to-
night by leading public men and diplomats
is that the crisis will reach its climax this
week and that the QUESTION OF war or
peace Will be determined within the next
seven days. Senators and representatives
conferred all day about the gravity of the
situation, and at the White House the
president consulted with several members
OF his cabinet and other confidential adj
visers regarding the message which ne is
preparing 10 send to congress. At the
state. war and navy buildings active work
was going on today. No absolute day has
