CANNOT CLEAR
 FOR CUBAN PORTS.
No More Vessels Will Be Granted Their Clearance After the Presi-
 dents Proclamation Issues.

NEW YORK, April 21.-A Washing ton special to the Herald says: When President Mckinley tomorrow pro- claims the ports of Cuba in a state of blockade no more vessels will be al- lowed to clear from ports of the United States for any of the blockaded ports.
 Up to the present time all vessels leaving the United States for Spanish ports have done so at the risk of be- ing intercepted by any blockade which may be established before their ar rival. AS soon as the blockade is ex- tended to the ports of the Island of Porto Rico vessels will be refused clearance to these ports, and the same rule will be followed as to other Span ish ports that may be blockaded during the progress of the war.

Declares That the Island of Cuba Will Never Lose Its Spanish
 Sovereignty.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

MADRID, April 21.-In the Spanish Senate to-day Marshal Martinez de Campos asked Minister for Foreign Af- fairs Gullon to make statement re- garding the relations of Spain and the United States, whereupon the latter re- piled that the relations were broken off.
 The former captain-general of Cuba then made a patriotic speech, in which he declared that Cuba will never lose her Spanish sovereignty.
 Campos said he warmly approved the wisdom displayed by the Government, which had accepted voluntarily all propositions compatible with the dig nity of Spain" He added that ever since 1920 the United States had "pur- sued it's aim of seizing Cuba" If America belonged to the Americans, he argued, Spai-. ought to be consider ed an American power, for she has waterea the soil of America with her blood" He recalled the fact that there exists in the American continent forty million inhabitants of Spanish origin, "all favorable to the mother country" 7" A resolution, eloquently supported by several leading Senators, pledging the
 
 dignity of Spain, was carried with ac- clamation.
 Senor Gullon, the Foreign Minister, thanked the Senate, mot in the name of the Liberal Cabinet, but in the name of the Government.
 The President then delivered a patri- otic oration, arousing intense enthu- sasm.
 Senor Fernandez Gonzales declared in the name of the Republicans that party spirit was now drowned, adding that there is only one voice throughout Spain, to repel foreign aggression"
 At the outset of proceedings in Con gress Qower house Of he Cortes) the President, Marquis Vega d'Armijo. urged the necess,--y of ,ne quickest pos sible organization of the House ito enable. us to defend the honor and flag of our country"
 The Chamber commenced forthwith the election of committees, and it is believed that the work of organization will be completed by Saturday.
 In the lobbies Deputies of all parties were unanimous in saying that America must be resisted to the utmost.

 The troops, when they are organized and are ready to move, will be added to the division of the regular army now mobilizing at Gulf points, where they will be under the command of generals now commanding the regi- ments of the regular army already there. The provisional troops will be organized into brigades and divisions as soon as practicable, and the volun teer forces will be together organized into an army corps, which will be com manded by officers holding the rank of major general of the regular army or of the volunteers.
 There will te three divisions of vol unteers and one division of regulars to each corps. These army corps will probably be stationed at Mobile, New Orleans, Tampa and Chickamauga, and commanded by uenerals Brooke, Wade, Coppinger and Shafter.

 HAVANA, April 21-There is a de- felt of $2,304, ,532 S8 in the treasury of Havana. The Mayor declares it is chargeable to the previous administra- tion, which. spent large sums to pay expenses not included in the budget. Yesterday the Mayor threatened to re- sign at the meeting of the Council un- less something was done to make up the deficiency. Representations were made to him that such action on his part at this time would not be patriotic and he decided to remain in office.
 Fl Pals, the official organ of the au- tonomist party, publishes to-day a list of men to be voted for as representa- tives before the Insular Cabinet Ex- cept about ten they come from the re- formist group and are unknown. Most of them are lawyers without clients
 On account of the last news received about war between Spain and the United States being nearer, it is gen erally believed that the elections will not take place, and in case they should it will be difficult for the Cuban Par liament to assemble and legiSlate to the music of cannon shots.
 The COnSerNaIlNeS dlSO puD1Sn III their official organ, La Constitucional, the names of the candidates whom they will present for election. It is noticed that they also have not designated men really up to the gravity of the situa- tion.
 Union Constitutional, in an editorial, says it is not possible to conceal the fact that Spain wishes war because she cannot allow anything to offend her dignity. She does not mind the num- Der of her enemies. The editorial denies that the Puritans were the founders of the Northern American republic, and declares that when independence was secured the United States became the receiving place of the universe, where adventures from all the world have gone fleeing from punishment deserved because of their crimes. They are anX- iouS, 1t continues, to procure money by all possible means.
 La Lucha in an editorial says Spain began this century with Trafalgar, fought with Napoleon when he wished to take hold of Spain as he had done of other territories, and will finish the century defending her territory that a greedy foreign country wishes to snatch from her.
 History 1t continues, does not record a deed in a civilized country analogous to that which the American hogs wish to perform. Spain, it declares, does not regard the situation as either difficult or dangerous.
