NAVAL APPR0PRlAl ION BILL.
The Bill, as Reported to the Senate, Carries
forty-six Million Dollars.

Washington, April 1.-THE senate COM
mittee on appropriations today completed
consideration of the naval appropriation
bill, and Senator Hale reported 1t to the
senate. The amendments recommended by
the committee increase the aggregate ap-
preparation made by the house to the ex-
tent of IS 1858 500, making the total $751; ,55S
The principal items of increase are: For
the construction and the machinery OF new
war and defense vessels, s6,0O0,00O; for ar
NOR and armament, $1,5O0,000; for equip
ment. 5000 900; for additions to and repairs

The allowance is to be exclusive of arma-
ment, and the vessels are to have one or
two turrets each. The three battleships
provided by the house are left in the bill.

increased from twelve to sixteen, and the
appropriation for the construction of this

TO TAKE MANILA.
The Aalatic Squadron Was Ordered in Read-
ness February rs.

Copyrighted, 1898, by the Associated Press.)
Hong Kong. March 16.-On Saturday, Feb.
%, Commodore Dewey, commanding the
United States Asiatic squadron, received
important orders from Washington, a con-
sutation of commanding officers was held
and prompt action was taken to collect the
United States squadron at this port and put
1t in the highest possible state of readiness.
The cruisers Boston and Concord were
ordered to proceed here with the utmost
dispatch from Corean waters. Everything
was got in readiness to leave within few
hours. Some difficulty was experienced in
getting coal at first, but now the squadron
has full bunkers all the time.
Commodore Dewey's five cruisers are
ready to sail in few hours, and should
the Spanish embroglio lead to hostilities a
dash across the China sea of 700 miles
would put the United States fleet in pos
session of Manila. Although the Spanish
have seventeen vessels doing duty in these
waters, most of them are in reality tug
boats of 800 tons displacement with only two
modern cruisers of about 5000 tons.
The latter could easily be handled by the
Raleigh or Boston.

I believe if the president had designed the
establishment of free and independent
republic on the island of Cuba he would
have said so. Why did he say stablesgov
eminent and not an Independent govern
ment, which are vastly different? I do not
doubt that Spain could establish stable
government. It could make a desert and
call it peace. No one could deny that the
president has asked for authority to. send
the army and the navy to Cuba to restore
peace. When our forces arrive the Span
iards will say; We are at peace; our arms
are stacked 1t is the insurgents who are
al war The agents of the president would
be compelled under the authority he asks
to say to the insurgents: stack your arms,
retire from the fields where you have for
three years struggled with fire and sword
to attain your liberty
MARK my words" said Mr.. Bailey, in
conclusion, with uplifted arm and ominous
gesture, mo president that sends the army

pie will fix upon him." Great applause on

MINISTERS EXAMINE THE MESSAGE.
Senior Moret Says It Does Not Shut the Door
en- H p, for Peace

Madrid, April 12.-[7:40 p. m.1-The minis
ters have been in cabinet session to exam
inc the cabled digests of the message, all
reserving their opinions except Senior Mo-
ret, secretary of the colonies, who has
declared that the document does not shut
the door on his hopes for peace.
The bourse received the message badly.
Senior Silvella, leader of the dissident
conservatives, characterizes it as grave"
Diplomatic circles generally maintain
discretion, combining themselves to state
ments that the powers will preserve peace.

omitted the great powers of Europe. The
text was given, however, exactly as re-
ceived 1t had the effect of creating some
feeling among the representatives or the
six great powers, as it was thought to be
surprising that General Blanco omitted all
references to the influences that the powers
had Jointly exercised in bringing the final
result This led to the development that
Blancos proclamation had in fact specif1ed
the influences of the powers, as. well as
those of the pope, and that the omission
was through inadvertence.
Regarded as Significant
General Blanco's language Is regarded as
significant in two respects: First, in show
ing that Spain yielded to the great powers
and the pope; and, second, that the United
States was not included in the influences
which brought about the concession.
Word reached here today that the Span
ish consul at Key West had retired from
the consulate there because of threats said
to have been made against his life. This
is the first removal of a Spanish official
in the United States as result OF the pres
ent trouble. The consul at Key West re-
ported the circumstances to the SPANS n
minister at Washington, and said the feel
ing extended beyond the consul and in
cluded those Spaniards at Key West who
supported the home government. AS a
result the consul and a number OF Span
iards who have been living there have re-
moved to Tampa, where 1t is said their
safety is better assured.

IN THE SENATE

Washington, April 12.-For nearly three
hours today the senate had the Cuban
question in its several phases under dis
cussions. Three resolutions bearing upon
the question were introduced, one by Lind
say of Kentucky, directing that the con-
tempated operations against the Span
ish army in Cuba be in concert with Cen
eral Gomez, the supreme command to be
vested in the commander of the United
States forces to the end that independence
of the Cubans be assured; the second by
Wilson, of Washington, directing the
president at once to take such steps rs
will secure to the Cuban people an indie
pendent republican form of government /;
and the third by Mr.. Allen, of Nebraska,
declaring the existence of war In Cuba
and directing the president to take steps
to stop 1t and secure to the people of the
island a stable and Independent govern
ment.
Following the introduction of the resolu-
lions, speeches were delivered by Mr.. ret
tus, of Alabama, Mr.. Mason, OF limos
and Mr.. Butler, of North Carolina. Judge
Pettus presented an argument that the
congress could not delegate to the presi-
dent the power to make war either in q
general or in a special sense and declared
that the making of any war without an
express declaration by congress, would be
a disgrace to the nation. Mr.. Mason
speech was largely a. legal argument In
favor of the recognition of the indepen-
dence of the Cuban republic and was dellV-
cred with characteristic fire and vehe-
mence.
War for an Honorable Peace

Washington, April 1.-THE diplomatic
phase of the Spanish situation is in statu

further developments in the old ones. 1t is
the expectation that this status will con-
tinue for the present at least, while con-
gress considers the subject. A definite I'M

sentatives of the six powers of Europe
that no action from that quarter would be
opportune at this time,
The armistice has gone into effect in Gu

had come as to the attitude of the insur-
gents. If they accept it the solution APP
pears to be simple. If they do not accept it
the expectations of the Spanish gov rn-
ment is that this will be made manifest
within the next few days by continued hos
tilities by the forces of Gomez and Others.
If the Spanish troops are attacked whine in
garrison they will defend themselves ana
thereafter will feel free to take the agSres-
