Mckinley have become specific acts. Thus it is considered by the Span iards here that matters are practi- cally as they were before the mes sage was sent to Congress, and the opinion is expressed in official circles that neither the message nor last nights Cabinet meeting has changed the prospect of peace.
 The Spanish Government consid- CTS that, apart from its solemn af- firmation of Spain's rights as na- tion, the Ministers are not called upon to make any declaration so long as the resolutions of Congress or the initiative of President Mckinley do not lead to concrete acts.
 The official note also says: "A firm consciousness of its rights, united with the resolution to main tain them, will inspire the nation as they inspire the Government, with the serenity necessary in these diff cult moments to direct successfully and defend energetically the sacred interests winch are the patrimony of the Spanish race"
 The Minister of War, General Cor req, and the Minister of Marine, Ad- miral Bermejo, submitted reports re- lating to the measures taken toward mobilizing all the forces of the coun- try.
 There is absolutely no truth in the report that General Weyler has been called to Madrid
 The Bourse closed very weak. The opinion of the Ministers is more op- timistic than at first, as the full text of the message has been received and digested. Even those who took a gloomy view of the document, now express themselves as more hopeful.
 I sum up public opinion. however.

To-Day Congress Will Put the Matter Once More Into the Hands
 of the President.
Both Houses Will Declare for Intervention WitF Arms, Which Spain Has Said She Can
 Under No Circumstances Tolerate.

NEW YORK, April I3.-The Her aids Washington correspondent tele- graphs: Congress is plunging rapidly in the direction of war.
 It is all war talk again tonight.
 There is not even the element of de- lay which yesterday offered some hope of peace. Both houses are rushing madly ahead. They are responding to the Presidents message promptly and emphatically, and going far beyond what the President hoped for or ex- pected With the American Congress bent on war, the Spanish Government making no headway under the armis- tice proposition, and the Spanish Cortes soon to meet and thereby cornplicate an already excited condition in Spain, 1t IS hard to figure out a single hope for peace.
 Congress is almost sure to direct armed intervention. This means war.
 In what form intervention will be au- thorized is not yet definitely settled. There are details yet to be effected ln the House and Senate resolutions, but the form of words makes little differ ence Both the resolutions of the Sen ate and the House imply the same ef- fort on the part of the United States.
 Anything that Congress may do, the least thing Congress can do, in its present temper, would mean armed intervention at once and this will not be accepted by Spain as anything less than a hostile act
 The House acted promptly by an overwhelming majority. There may be some delays in the Senate in reaching a final vote, but the consideration of the grave subject will not lag. Beginning tomorrow, the Senate will hold con- tinuous session until vote has been taken. Senator Chandler gave notice

and presented arms with special alacrity.
 It is announced that an official tel egram has been received from the Philippine Islands, saying that se- rious outbreak has taken place in Fulean, and that the insurgents have seized the telegraph station, the op- orators barely escaping with their lives. Troops have been sent to quell the outbreak.

SPAIN RESENTS
 INTERVENTION BY
 THE UNITED STATES
Ministers Talk of Peace, but the Situation Is Looked Upon
 at Madrid as Grave.
Copyrighted 1898. by James Gordon Bennett

Copyrighted, 1898. by James Gordon Bennett.
 MADRID, April 13.-The view taken here of President McKinley's message is exceedingly serious, and although some apparently think that the President may be given full pow CTS to intervene, the period at which intervention shall take place is un- defined, depending upon results and events.
 Popular appreciation of the situa- ton was expressed to-day by a polit- ical leader, who said: "Does Presi- dent Mckinley intend to take Cuba immediately"
 The Cabinet meeting to-day lasted five hours, and it is said was mainly devoted to the consideration of Presi- dent McKinley's message to Congress on the Cuban question. When the Ministers adjourned an official note was issued setting forth the views of the Government. It is variously commented upon and interpreted in newspaper circles.
 In brief, the note sets forth that the Cabinet has granted an extraor- dinary credit for war purposes and has incidentally increased the grant for the artillery of Porto Rico.
 The Minister of the Interior, Senor Capdepen, gave the official version of the events here on Sunday and Mon day, and also made report of the oc- currences in some of the provincial towns.
 After disposing of current affairs, the Premier, Senor Sagasta, desig mated two of the Ministers to imme- diately draw up an address to the crown.
 The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Senor Gullon, at the request of Senor Sagasta, made report of the state of affairs in his department, which the Premier thought should occupy the first place in the debates of the Cabinet.
 Senor Gullon read report of the text of President McKinley's mes sage. After referring to the Presi- dents previous message, which was considered necessary in order to fill up the gaps in the political sum- mary, it was decided that the para graphs read were sufficient for the Cabinet to affirm that the Govern ment refuses to acknowledges the right of the United States to inter- fere in Cuba, adding:
 "The declarations in the message are incompatible with the sover- eighty and rights of the nation, and are an interference in the internal affairs of this country"
 The Spanish Government, how ever, expressed the opinion that it is not called upon to take action until the recommendations of President

DON CARLOS WILL FIGHT

MADRID, April 13.-Don Car los has issued a manifesto, in the course of which he says:
 'The Carlist who in the face of war with the United States would rise in arms against Spain, is a traitor. If war oc- CUTS all tn who fight against the foreigner who insults us will deserve we'll of Carlos. If the Spanish Government does not venture into war, but permits the loss of Cuba. then t Car lists who do not respond to the voice of the King will also be
 traitors. If the Government will not take up the glove thrown down by Washington the King
 himself will come to Spain; and
 if he cannot get soldiers he will
 get volunteers from the pro-
 vinces to defend the honor the

to-day that no business other than the consideration of the intervention reso- lution should come before the Senate.
 This was unnecessary, as the minds of the majority of the Senate are made up to reach conclusion at the earliest possible moment and end the suspense.

No Use in Discussing War or It's
Probability
Yet.
He HAS NO UNUSUAL ORDERS.
United States viii Accept the Verdict of
Its Officers Fighting Wouldn't
Reach Inland.

Atlanta, Feb. 25.-In an interview
here General Wesley Merritt says: ut
is useless to discuss war or the proba-
btlity OF it, Nothing can be done until
the investigation is completed. Even
then do not see how there could be
war; that is. If the investigation shows
ths Name was blown up by one or
more Spanlards without the cognI-
Eance OF Spain. The government
could only demand an indemnity. OF
course, cannot venture toNsay what
Spain would do or what the result
would be. II war is to result the navy
would be likely to hear. of it first.
II can say, in the utmost frankness,
that am not bearing any unusual or
ders, as has been suggested, and that
there is absolutely no reason for any
uuusual concern over my visit"
1t was stated to General Merritt that
many persons believe that if the United
States board OF investigates, found
that the Maine had been blown up by
mine or torpedo, Spain would inves-
tigate, and upon an adverse finding
tls matter would be referred to a third
nation for further investigation.
at Is my belief" SAID General Mer-
ritt, "that the United States would ao-
espt the verdict Of its own officers
wiMout hesitation and would not con-
slider any report that the Spanish gov
ernment might make. OF course,
there might be arbitration on the ba-
sis Of the finding Of the United States
naval officers, This is said on the sup
position that the board might find that
the Maine had been blown up.
'In the event of war, do not think
that the fighting would reach inland.
Our coast defense is ample. / am con-
ldent that every fortiAcation is in
good condition and the Spanish yes-
sells would nnd it no easy task to get
at any coast town."

of the scene, the cars caught fire from

One woman. unidentified so far, is
dead, and about eighteen are injured,

Of their factory at handsome salary.
AS this step would necesstate Mr..

that Mr.. Harber coutempIates the
