IN CUBA.
Insurgents Decline to Confer Will
the Colonial Government.

HAVANA, April 21, 10 a. m.-The
and quiet prevails here.
The Government has accepted the
proposal of Nichola Tamin & Co., an
American concern, to arrange for a
supply of water from Paila to Colon.
The contract Will be signed Immediate
ly. 1t is looked upon as a good ar
rangement from both standpoints.
AT the meeting of the Directors of the
Spanish Bank it was agreed to declare
compulsory the acceptance of paper
money at it's value on the day of pre-
sentation and to receive it at the pre-
vious days value.
1t is currently reported here that the
insurgents have declined to confer with
the delegation of the Colonial Govern
ment which We're sent to treat with
them for peace on a basis of a broader
form of autonomy. 1t is added that
the insurgents will accept only Spanish
Generals as mediators.
Secretary Monterey has called a meet
ing of merchants and bankers to dis
cuss the situation. They have already
agreed to help the Government
The volunteers We're drilling as usual
on the Prado last night, and the AL
bisu Theater was crowded when the
news that the United States had sent
an ultimatum to Spain was made pub
lie. The announcement was greeted
with enthusiasm by the public and the
audience in the theater called upon the
orchestra to play the "CadiZ March. !"
This was accompanied by a singing
chorus. In the midst of the enthusiasm
in the theater one of the actors
brought a Spanish flag upon the stage,
which caused another patriotic out
burst and enthusiastic cheers for Spain
and Spanish Cuba, accompanied by
bellicose demonstrations against the
United States, a climax being reached
with the audience loudly calling for
war.
AS natural with an outbreak of hos
tilities apparently imminent, the move
ments of troops continue and the Cap
tain-General is holding daily confer
ences at the palace with the Spanish
Generals All the meetings are private
and nothing is allowed to be known un-
til the conclusions are arrived at The
Spanish say patriotic demonstrations
are being made in all the interior towns
as well as in the inSurgent camps, in
the vicinity of which, it is added, white
flags have been hoisted by relatives
of the insurgents, who have been car
rying food and presents to the men in
the field.

WAR PREPARATIONS.
All Arrangements Made for Call
ing Out 100000 Volunteers.

WASHINGTON, April 21.-With the
actual beginning of war military and
naval preparations were vastly stimu-
lated to-day. The navy bought ship
and a number of yachts. 1t secured
some more material for guns and re-
newed orders for haste in the construc-
ton of guns. Orders were sent to the
squadron to guard their movements
and the prelminaries of a blockade
were executed.
In the War Department all arrange
ments have been made for call for
100000 volunteers, to be chosen from
the National Guard. The Strategy
Board of the Department looked over
and perfected the plans and efforts
were begun to provide for sub-system
of coast patrol by the State authorities.
Movements of troops, begun a day or
two ago, were changed by direction of
the department in some respects to
meet the conditions of the moment at
Southern posts, but in general there
are indications that the department is
acting with the purpose of concentrat-
ing no less than $4,000 men at the Gulf
ports within the next ten days, ready
for embarkation to Cuba.
ATLANTIC SQUADRON ORDERED
TO BLOCKADE HAVANA
The decision to send the fleet to Ha-
vana was reached at the Cabinet meet
ing this afternoon, and was guarded
as closely as possible. Hurried orders
We're dispatched to the fleet to estab-
lish blockade at the entrance of Ha-
want harbor. Later on the fleet will
be supported by the troops, who will
be dispatched to Cuba as soon as, in
the opinion of the President, it is pos
slble to use them advantageously in
the occupation of the island. Meanwhile
as rapidly as troops can be rushed to
Key West and other points on the
South Atlantic and Gulf coast they will
be hurried forward. It is estimated
that it will take ten days to concen-
trate an army of sufficient size with
supplies to make the campaign. 1t is
the purpose to gather there troops and
to make sharp decisive movement
Immediately upon passage of the
army volunteer bill by Congress, the
President, by proclamation. will call for
IOO,OO0 men. Of this force it is intend
ed to use $4,000 men in Cuba in con-
junction with the regular army now
already assembled or assembling at
points Of concentration. The remain
ing 10000 men will aid the artillery
detachments in guarding the sea coast
and manning the heavy guns of our
coast defenses
Great difficulty was experienced in
learning the details of operations. Sec
retary Long, when seen, refused to ad-
NIT that orders had been sent to the
fleet, but subsequently confirmation
was obtained of a rumor that orders
had been sent. coupled with the sur
prising information that the fleet had
actually sailed. With respect to the
flying squadron at Hampton Roads no
information is as yet obtainable
News came to the department that
confirm the newspaper reports that the
formidable Spanish naval force at ST.
Vincent Cape Verde Islands. had sailed
last night for an unknown destination.
Naval experts say that, leaving out of
consideration the question of the rela-
tive strength of the personnel the
Spanish force is at least equal and
probably much superior in some re-

the frontier is reached.
There is bitter feeling against Great
Britain, especially on the contraband of
war and privateer questions. It is the
belief of the general public that she is
planning in an underhand manner the
game of the United States.
THE NOTE TO WOODFORD.
MADRID, April 21.-The Following is
the text of the note received this morn
ing by General Woodford from Senor
Gullon, Minister of Foreign Affairs:
Dear Sir: In compliance with pain
ful duty, L have the honor to inform you
that there has been sanctioned by the
President of the Republic a resolution
of both chambers of the United States
which denies the legitimate sovereignty
of Spain and threatens armed interven-
ton in Cuba, which is equivalent to
declaration of war. The Government
of her majesty has ordered her Minister
to return without loss of time from
North American territory. together with
all the personal of the Legation.
"By this act the diplomatic relations
heretofore existing between the two
countries and all of the negotiations be-
tween their respective representatives
cease.
oh 70. i,1fo
that you may make such arrangements
as you think fit. 1 beg your excellency
to acknowledge receipt Of this note at
such time as you deem proper. Taking
this opportunity to reiterate to you the
assurances of my distinguished consid-

at Norfolk as an auxiliary cruiser, and
actual beginning of war was received
with gravity at the Department and
there We're many speculations as to the
destination of the Spanish squadron.
One suggestion was that it is heading
to cut off the fine battleship Oregon,
on its way from the Pacific Coast,
around to join Captain SIMPSONS COM
mand. There is also some fear that
the Oregon may be taken at an unfair
advantage, without knowledge of the
existence Of war, by the Spanish tor
pedo boat destroyer Temmerire, which
is now lying at Buenos Ayres. Pos
sibly with view to avoiding a conflict
in the straits of Magellen. where she
would be at a disadvantage, the Ore
gon has been ordered to go around
Cape Horn.
Relative to the news that comes from
Chicago that the three revenue cutters
on the lakes cannot be availed Of for
naval purposes, it is said at the Navy
Department that the Department had
some time ago abandoned the idea Of
using these craft, owing to the diff
culties in getting them out to the At
lantic seaboard. 1t was, however, de-
MED that any international obstacle
had been encountered in the shape of
a notice from the Canadian Govern
ment that the passage of the ships
would not be permitted. The little
Bancroft, now at Boston, has been
placed under command of Captain Clo-
yer. who will meet the ship at Norfolk
within a few days and take it to Key
West.
In the War Department many orders
flew to and fro, relative to the cOncen-
tration of troops in the South and
Secretary Alger was several times in
consultation with the President, re-
sulting in the determination to call for
100000 volunteers as soon as Congress
passed the necessary legislation.
The change in the composition of the
OdDlHGl, CIltlICly uAlCApCObCd, NOlAA-
pleted the list of important events of
the day.
At about 4:45 this afternoon the
President had a brief conference with
the Attorney General, Secretary Long
and Assistant Secretaries Day and
Adee kilograms We're received and
others presumably sent, but their pur-
port is not disclosed.
At 5:15 the President Joined Secre
tary Long in a short walk
For several days and especially to-
day, the Secretary of the Treasury has
received a large number of kilograms
from Collectors of Customs at ports on
the Atlantic and Gulf coasts stating
that ships were being laden for Cuban
ports. Large shipments of mules were
being made from southern ports, and
beef and coal from those further north.
The question as to whether these yes
sells should be permitted to sail was
referred to the Attorney General, and
his opinion was that pending the pas
sage of the bill prohibiting all exporta
tions of articles of this character, this
Government should not interfere.

pecially the newspaper correspondents
whose presence is dangerous" Ii
says the censorship is inadequate as
the correspondents have "other means
of keeping up their calumnies against
Spain, especially the American CORES
pondents."
The paper demands that date shall
be fixed for their expulsion, giving them
time only to reach the frontier. Let
them follow their profession elsewhere"
it says, "and we are confident that 40
Spaniard worthy the name will act as
substitute for Yankee prescribed COR

CUBAN FORCES.
Will Gladly Cooperate With Unit
ed States Forces

WASHINGTON, April 21-Brigadier-
Generals Nunez and Cartillo and the
Cuban insurgent army are now associa-
ted with the active work of the Cuban
delegation here, and their recent con-
ference with Major General Miles, COM
mander of the army, is looked upon as
suggesting possible cooperation of the
insurgent forces in the event of an at
tack by United States troops on the
Spanish forces in Cuba.
At the Cuban Legation no statement
would be made as to this conference, but
Senior Albertino, First Secretary, said
the Cubans would most gladly cooper
ate with the United States forces if CO.
operation was desired. At present he
said there were $4,000 Cubans in arms,
and there would be a general uprising
