THE PARIS REPORTED CAPTURED.
Her Cargo Includes Number of Guns and
Ammunition.


London, April 25.-The evening news
papers have dispatches saying the
steamer Paris has been captured by
the Spaniards.
The American line steamer Paris,
Captain Watkins, chartered by the
United States government, and which
left Southampton on Friday, has on
board $50 passengers and her cargo in
cludes number of guns and a quanti-
ty Of ammunition intended for the
United States government. According
to report Spanish cruisers are trying
to intercept her. 1t is believed that
the reports of the capture of the Paris
are simply repetitions Of earlier reports,
which have since been found to be un-
true.
AS the day progresses various con-
fiicting war ruors follow each other in
quick succession. One of these reports
says incoming vessels have sighted
Spanish dispatch boats in the English
channel. This, like other similar ru-
mors has not been confirmed.
The Spanish torpedo-boat Audaz Is
still in dock Cork. There is no truth
in the report that she left here at about
the time the Paris left Southampton.
Philadelphia, April 25-The fear for
the steamship Paris expressed In some
quarters, is not shared by the officers
of the International Navigation COM
pany. Clement A. Griscom, Jr., one of
the managers of the American line,
laughed at the idea of the capture of
the Paris. There is not a vessel in the
Spanish navy which can steam within
two knots of the Paris speed" he said.
IF the day is clear vessel can be
sighted twenty miles away. If there's
any doubt of the vessels nationality
1t is hardly likely that the Paris will
try to make it out. OF course, care
full lookout will be kept for Spanish
vessels, but we don't expect any will
be sighted which will give her any
trouble"

JOHN SHERMAN,
Secretary Of State
Declaration of War Necessary.

The president has concluded to
defer at least until Monday the mes
sage to congress recommending that a
declaration of war be passed. Sena-
tor Davis, chairman of the committee
on foreign relations. some days ago,
expressed 1t to be the view of the COM
mittee that a declaration of war should
be made in pacific tones by congress-,
but since then has expressed the be-
lief that IL is not now necessary. Mem
bers of the cabinet, however. with only
one or two exceptions, still believe
war declaration is absolutely neces-
sary in order to fix proper status of
this government, as such a declaration
unquestionably would enlarge the scope
of the rights of this government in
case of a general conflict. and IL is not
unlikely that congress will be asked to
take this step on Monday or soon
thereafter.
The presidents reasons for urging
congress to declare war Immediately
are, first, that he may avail himself
freely OF services OF retired officers;
The copper country evening news., 1898-04-25


forces from Cuba and Cuban waters,
and directing the president of the
United States to use the land and naval
forces of the United States to carry
these resolutions into effect and,
Whereas, BY an act Of congress en-
titled An act to provide for the in
creasing of the military establishment
of the United States in time Of war and
for other purposes approved April %,
1898, the president was authorized in
order to raise a volunteer army to is
sue his proclamation calling for volun-
teers to serve in the army Of the Unit
ed States.
Now, therefore /, William Mckinley,
president Of the United States, by vir-
tue Of power vested in me by the con-
stitution and laws and deeming suffi-
cient occasion to exist, have thought At
to call for and hereby do call for vol
unteers to the aggregate number of
1875, 900 In order to carry into effect the
purpose of the said resolution, the same
to be apportioned as far as practicable
among the several states and territor-
les and the District Of Columbia ac-
cording to population, and to serve for
two years, unless sooner discharged.
The details for this object will be i'm
mediately communicated to the proper
authorities through the war depart
ment.
I'm witness whereof have hereunto
set my hand, and caused the seal Of the
United States to be affixed. Done at
Washington, this twenty-third day of
April. 1898. and of the independence Of
the United States the 1921.
