usual Demonstration, and Re
Committee of the Respective
Bodies.

WASHINGTON. April 11.-Undaunted
by the disappointment of last Wednes-
day, the multitude again besieged the
Capitol this morning before the doors
were opened. Many camped on the
marble steps all night, and others began
streaming in through the dawn. But
thousands did not begin to arrive until
about 8 o'clock The day was dark
and gloomy. The smoke hung heavy
over the Capitol and the city, and the
stars and stripes above the dome and
terrace clung limp and damp to their
flag poles.
The experience Of last Wednesday
when thousands who had tickets to the
reserved galleries could not even get TO
the corridors leading to the galleries,
had resulted in better arrangements, so
far as the reserved galleries were con-
cerned, and all holding tickets were ac-
commodated. The space for the pub
lie, however. was restricted, and only
comparatively few of the thousands
who stood in the dense line stretching
down stairs and corridor to the base
ment, for hours, were admitted. AS on
Wednesday last, many women tainted
in the crush and were carried out, and
others dropped out of the lines at last
from fatigue and exhaustion.
Prominent personages from all over
the Union were pointed out here and
there The diplomatic galleries were
filed with members of the diplomatic
corps with their ladies. eager TO see how
Congress would receive the situation as
left by diplomacy. The executive gal
lery, save for the first row of seats, was
also filed by ladies and gentlemen hold
ing tickets from the White House.
The scene was memorable as the eye
swept the galleries and the animated
group of members on the floor below,
but there was less hubbub and evidence
of excitement than on Wednesday. The
general public opinion as manifested by
the spirit in the galleries seemed in favor
of brushing aside the latest offer of
Spain, and this feeling was reflected by
some members on the floor, but the con-
servatives circulating here and there
were counseling calmness and patience.

DISTURBANCES AT MADRID.
Many Arrests as the Result Of Po-

IN THE SENATE.
Every Available Seat, Both on the
Floor and in Galleries, Occupied.

WASHINGTON, April lin the
Senate to-day every available seat both
on the floor and in the galleries. was
occupied before Vice-President HO~
bart's gavel called the Senate to order
In the galleries people had been waiting
for hours, but the arrangements for
handling the crowds was so admirable
that not the slightest confusion existed.
The attendance of Senators was un-
usually large, and every member OF the
body in the city was in his seat.
Among the visitors on the floor was
General Nelson A. Miles, cOmmander-in-
chief of the army. In the diplomatic
gallery were Sir Julian Pauncefote the
British Embassador; Baron Hengel
Muller, the Austrian Minister, and
party; Constantine Bruin, Minister Of
Denmark: Charles f. Adams, First Sec
retary of the British Legation, and Miss
Adams; Chancellor Boeufve of the
French legation DR.. Yola, Secretary of
the Legation at Guatemala; j. B. Proda,
the Swiss Minister, and three attaches
of the Chinese Legation. Several of the
gentlemen were accompanied by ladies.
The galleries presented q brilliant
scne. Many of the ladies were attired in
the most fetching Easter finery, and the
handsome display of gowns and bon
nets was notable, even in this city of
beautiful dressing.
Scarcely had the Senate been called
to order, when Quay of Pennsylvania
precipitated the Cuban question by pre-
senting some petitions and making
startling comments upon them. He took
the strongest ground for immediate and
impetuous action.

continued their active preparations to-

prepared for, the sentiment in army
and navy circles is that war is not SO
imminent as it seemed to be few days
ago. 1t can be stated on authority that
no consideration has yet been given to
the withdrawal of the United States
fleet at Key West, as the Administra-
ton holds that the situation has under

The Message Read in the Presence
of a Vast Multitude.

WASHINGTON, April 11.-The Pres
ident's message was read in the House
to-day in the presence of vast as
semblage and referred to the Com
mittee on Foreign Affairs without de-
bate. There was absolutely no demon
stration, either of approval or dsap-
proval from the crowded galleries
throughout, or at the conclusion of the
reading. but there was a sharp burst
of applause from the Republican side
when. toward the close of the mes
sage, the President said the war in
Cuba must cease. At the conclusion of
the reading about half the Republicans
applauded, and several Democrats
eroaned. After the message had been
referred, tie House transacted some
District of Columbia business. and then
acted on the Fairehilds- Ward contested
election case from the Eighteenth New
York District by confirming Ward s
title to the seat Little or no interest
was taken in the proceeding. All the
afternoon members stood about in
groups discussing the message and the
probable action OF Congress on it.
Postmaster General Gary and Secre-
tary of Agriculture of Wilson were on
the floor just before the House con-
vened As the hands of the clock
pointed to noon the Speaker entered,
the hubbub ceased, and amid impress
sive silence the Chaplain invoked the
divine aid in the crisis.
Immediately after the reading of the
journal. a contest arose between the
Committee on Elections and the Com
mittee on the District of Columbia
over the right of way, and while the
wrangle that followed to the mystifi-
