SUBSTANCE OF SPANS REPLY
Independence Of Cuba Can Net Now
BE Granted.

Washington, April 2. - The reply Of
Spain is said, in effect, to be:
The independence of Cuba means the
parting OF cession Of Spanish territory,
which can not be done without the con-
sent Of the Spanish eortes, which will not
be in session until April "a.
The counter proposition is submitted
that the Cuban matter shall be settled up
on basis equitable among nations. The
United States is asked to give Spain time
to treat with the insurgents and ascertain
what can be done in the nature of peace
full settlement.
Senators who know the nature Of the
reply say it is very shrewd piece of di-
plomacy and made for its effect upon the
world at large. 1t is said the reply is UNI
satisfactory to the president and he does
not believe it will be satisfactory to con-
gress.
Administration officers feel that after
Monday congress is likely to take matters
into its own hands and fear is expressed
that there will be disagreement between
the branches Of government which would
be serious at thsi critical point.
No one at the capitol has undertaken to
speak for the president although those
who have seen him say his hopes of a
peaceful solution Of difficulty have been
disappointed by the reply Of Spain.

APPEAL TO QUEEN VICTORIA.
Queen Regent of Spain Said to he
Begging for Mediation.

London, April 3.-The queen regent OF
Spain has sent an autograph letter to the
queen of England, the New York World
correspondent learns from high source,
imploring help. Queen Maria Christina
begs Queen Victoria to use her influence
to prevail upon the British government to
support Austria and France in an attempt
to secure European mediation. This ex-
traordinary step has been taken by the
queen regent because of the codl reception
accorded by the British government to
the representations of the Spanish ambas-
sador respecting mediation.
The World informant adds: Queen Vie
toria simply forwarded a copy Of the
queen regents letter to Lord Salisbury,
whose policy will not in any way be af-
fected by it. England will tolerate no pol
icy Of bolstering up Spanish rule in Cuba.
The opinion prevails that the government
will be pressed from the liberal benches of
the house of commons to recognize the in
dependence OF Cuba as soon as the United
States does so.

erection in the matter Of acquiring land
Mr.. Bailey said he simply desired to call
the attention of the house to the fact that
it had in the last 30 days been called upon
to vote upon emergency measures, and
the house was not in possession of any
information showing that the administra
ton thought there was any extraordinary
emergency confronting the country. He
would have denied democratic president
the $50,OOO,O00 appropriation. Mr.. Bailey
said the country ought to know what the
administration is doing and intends to do.
The democrats were ready to assist in the
prosecution of war to q successful termi-
nation. This caused applause, which the
speaker rebuked. Mr.. Bailey said the ap-
plause in the galleries was merely a min
iature of the feeling of the people of the
country. Again there was applause in

to have them cleared. Mr.. Steele trep.) of

The senate chamber was jammed Mon
day with people interested in Cuban af-
fairs. The Chandler resolution, calling
for consular correspondence, went over,
on motion of Senator Davis until We'd
nesday, and the Quay independence reso-
luton followed. Senator Clay of Georgia
made a speech urging that war be avoided
if possible, but adding that there was no
remedy that did not concede the absolute
independence of Cuba. Senator Perkins,
in speech on the Cuban question, de-
clared the blowing up of the Maine by
| Spa nish officials was an act of war and
he believed it was so regarded by the ma
tions of the world. Senators Mantle and
Rawlins followed Senator Perkins, both
speaking for Cuban independence. At the

ABOUT PAPAL MEDIATION
AN UNOFFICIAL EFFORT
Not an Armfstice. hut a Truce, II
Truce of God Agreed UpOn-A
High Spanish Dignitary Talks

Madrid, April 4.-The correspondent
here OF the Associated Press has just had
an interview with a high parsonage of
great authority, who cleared up many
discrepancies in previous reports, showing
just how the papal intervention occurred.
Unfortunately the name of this high per-
sonage can not be quoted, but no one is
better qualified to speak with knowledge
OF the subject. This minister says:
There is no papal telegram whatever.
What happened was that the Spanish rep
resentative at the Vatican was approach
ed by Cardinal Rampolli, who told him
the president of the United States had
allowed it to be understood that papal in
PREVENTION would be acceptable. The
Spanish ambassador wired here to that
effect, and indicated that he had sent a
categorical reply to President Mckinley,
the terms having previously been concert
ed to the last point consistent with Spain s
honor, in which we were certain the pope
would respects the rights and honor OF
Spain, and agreed to his intervention. 1t
was impossible for our country to offer
an armistice at the suggestion of for
eign power, but when the father of Chris.
tendon, without force but with vast NOR.
al power, offered intervention, we could
not refuse it, knowing well that reliance
might be placed upon his independent
judgment. So, not an armistice but a
truce, a truce of God, has been agreed
upon. This, however, requires action
upon the part of the United States, con-
sequential action to our concessions. The
rebels have been, not designedly, we be-
lieve, assisted and couraged by the pres
ence of American warships in the neigh
borhood of the island. A continuance of
this would initiate against the pope's
good offices and against the hope OF peace.
We know President Mckinley has work.
ed for peace, but an influence has been
growing like a rising tide, and 1t is now
Il question whether any barrier or EN-
bankment he would set across its pro-
gress would be strong enough to with.
stand its force. Spain has shown her
Willingness to secure peace by concessions
to the last point consistent with her ma.
| tional honor. The future depends upon

Havana HarbOr Full OF Dynamite

New York, April A dispatch to the
World from Havana says:
Forty floating submarine mines were
secretly planted in Havana harbor last
Wednesday night by the Spanish govern
ment. This information comes from off.
cial sources and is absolutely correct. The
mines contain sufficient force there to par.
alyze the biggest ships afoat.
There is great enthusiasm among the
Spaniards here and thousands are enter
ing the battalions of volunteers. The
Spaniards say they prefer to fight great
nation to small one, as they would rath-
er die 'as heroes than live towards"
They add that Spain has always had
the protection of special providence in
great conflicts. In spite of this seemingly
brave shouting, many have already with.
drawn their money from the Bank Of
Spain.
