BUSY AT LEAGUE ISLAND.

Philadelphia, April 3.-There was the
usual activity at the League Island navy
yard today. Work is being pushed night
and day on the eight old monitors. The
Catskill and Nahant have been taken
from the dry dock and the Jason and
Montauk were put in. The Lehigh is
ready to go in and the Mahopac, Manhat-
tan and Canonicus have been towed from

chusetts naval reserves, who have been
ordered to the snavy yard to take charge
of the monitors, arrived here today and

ceive her orders tomorrow. The tine

ment has purchased from 2. A. B. Wide

FOREIGN AFFAIRS COMMITTEE
will Be Ready To Report to Senate by
Wednesday.

Washington, April 3.-The expectation
in the Senate is that the report Of the
committee on foreign relations on the
Cuban situation will be made to the
Senate not later than Wednesday and if
the report should be made at that time
the probabilities are that it will engage
the greater ghare of the Senate's time for
ths remainder OF the week. The commit
tee will make an effort to secure action
upon the resolutions which it will report,
without having them debated, but with
very little probability of success. Proba-
bly, large majority of the members OF
the Senate are favorable to some declar
alton apropos of the Cuban situation,
but there is certain to be differences of
opinion on the course to be pursued and
on the language to be used which will
be sufficient to prevent immediate action
expecpt in one contingency. D. 4 Ih1s con-
tingenoy is the possibility OF an agree
meu5 as to the details between the Presl-
deEt and the committee. II the commit
tee report should prove to be in accord
with the Presidents recommendation in
all essential points, the Senate likely
would adopt the resolutions brought In
without debating thom. There is, how
ever, a considerable element in the SEN
ate which is opposed to war except as a
last extremity and there are several
others who think there ought to be delay
Of at least week or ten days before
legislation ia taken in Congress in order
to insure the safe landing of ships and
war supplies now on their way to this
country from Europe -
The committee on foreign relations is
not impressed with this line Of reasoning
and the members urge that Spain ID no

better prepared ..for hostilities than we
are. The members of this committee do
not expect the Presidents message before
Tuesday or they are preparing to wait
until Wednesday. Under great pressure
there might be delay beyond that time,
but request for such delay would cause
great restiveness on the part of a majori-
ty of the committee While desirous of
giving the President all the time he may
actually require for the prepa ration of
his message they ars very impatient OF
the outside influence, which is being ex-
erted to hold them in check. This pres
sure is in the shape of letters and tele-
grams from people throughout tthea coun-
try who are opposed to war policy, and
are being flooded.
"The WRITER'S" said member OF the
committee today, generally ask us to
maintain an honorable peace. OF course
we all want an honorable peace, but the
time has gone by when that can be con-
sidered under existing conditions in
Cuba. We cannot allow our conduct to
be controlled by such expressions.
When the Presidents message is re-
ceivsd, it will, on Senator Davis's mo-
tion be referred to the committee on for
eign relations, which may bring in it's re-
port later in the day, or it may not do so
until the following day. So far as it is
informed as to the probable line Of the
Presidents commupication, the commit
tee is now preparing to report, but ths
members realize that there may be some
detail of the message that will require
careful consideration and in that event
they will give more time to it, or an
hour or two on the day Of it's presenta-
tion.
Unless there should be q change in the
committees conclusions after the Presi-
dent shall have been heard from the reso-
lutions win recon- mend the
recognition OF Cuban indie
pendeuce with a declaration of armed in
teryention to make independence practi
cable. They will also include the Maine
explosion as one of the causes for this
action. The resolutions will be accom-
panied by carefully drawn report writ
ten by Senator Davis, justifying them.
For the rest the Senate probably will
give it's attention to appropriation bills
and miscellaneous matters on the calen-
dar.

ment might if so inclined, exercise its 1n-
huenoe with the insurgents to induce
them to apply for an arn1istioe with view
to furthering the ends of peace on the
island, however, that arnistice would
be destined to lead to the submission Of
the insurgents to the new autonomist
regime
''Senor Sagasta assured me that the
question Of independence Of Cuba Or
the sale Of that country or of any inTa-
sion Of Spanish rights, was not mooted
in the recent negotiations.
''Senor Sagasta considers that since he
took Office in October last he has done
everything possible to satisfy the Cubans
and to preserve good relations with the
United States and that consequently no
responsibility for the present crisis
should it lead to rupture will rest with
Spain. He. however, does not believe
that the last Spanish memorandum closes
the door to further negotiations Those
who had conducted them, he said, had
on both sides shown a disl osition to
promote cordial relations, ana he only
apprehended trouble from 3he pressure of
the iingoes on the executive in Washing
ton.
''Senor Sagasta proceeded to say that
his government had addressed memo
randum to the European powers, but had
not officially taken steps to solicit their
intervention. y

Washington, April 3.-The opinion
almost universally held in Washington
tonight by leading public men aud diplo-
mats is that the crisis will reach it's cli-
max this week and that the question OF
war or peace will be determined within
the next seven days.
Senators and representatives met and
conferred all day about the gravity of the
situation and at the White House the
President counselled with several mem.
bers of his cabinet and other confidential
advisers regarding the message which
he is preparing to send to Congress. AT
the state, war and navy departments, ex-
ecutivel work was going on and alto
eether it has been day OF suppressed
feeling. No absolute day has been yet an
nounced when the message is to sent to
Congress and all that seems to be abso-
Iutely certain, is that it will not go in
tillaTuesday, possibly, but more probably
Wednesday or perhaps LATER In addition
to the special work of preparing the COM
prehensive document upon which the
President expects to rest America S
case with the world, there are other rea-
sons why those in charge Of the war pre-
variations would welcome every hours
delay. War material which we have
ordered abroad is not shipped and the
factories in this country which are at
work day and night making powder and
proiecti1es are anxious for delay. Some
of the factories in Connecticut with con-
tracts have telegraphed Representative
Hill urging all the delay possible. They
say every day now is precious.
There is still divergence of opinion
in his message, indeed there seems to be
still question as to whether the Presl-
dent will make any specific recommenda-
tions Some Of his mesS intimate friends,
assert emphatically that his recommen-
dations will be specific and vigorous and
such that his party and the country
would willingly follow where he points
the way.
He has not given up ope yet that
hostilities may be averted. There are
those who believe the President has not
yet made up his mind as to the exact
course he will pursue and there seems
to be question as to whether the con-
sular representations and the diplomatlc
correspondence are to be transmitted
with the message The suspense caused
by the necessary delay in the prepara-
ton of the message is very trying upon
members of both Houses, and the mose
universally discussed question in wash
ington tonight is whether Congress eau
be restrained until the message is Trans
mitted.
The difficulty and arduous task Oh
preparing our case for the worlds inspec-
tion and the care which must be exer-
cised. is realized and there seems to be
no disposition to "unduly' hasten the
President. The party leaders are ex-
tremely anxious to avoid a breach with
the executive such as would occur II Loh-
gress were to take the initiative AFTER
a careful canvass of the situation today
they believe the radical Republicans can
be held in line few days longer nhtli
Wednesday. at least. The Republicans
of the House who have been insisting
upon prompt action, wiy bold another
maeting. While many Of them now are
