WASHINGTON, April 4-The Wash.
tng'ton Post says that unless Spain,
within forty-etght hours, yields all by
surrender1ng Cuba, war cannot be
averted. 1t sums up the situation as
follows;
President McKinleys message to congress
will be ringing, vigorous document that
promises to meet the full expectation Of
congress and the country. 1t will be a
scathing arraignment Of Spain, showing
that she has demonstrated her utter incapac-
tty to govern; that her colonies have de-
clined IN population as the result Of mis-
rule and oppression; that American COM
merce has been damaged and American
lives and property imperiled. and that ex-
listing conditions should not and will not be
tolerated by this government.
The destruction of the battleship Maine
and the slaughter Of 266 officers and seanen
commented upon in strong language, and
Spain will be held responsible for that dis
aster.
The president will make no direct recon-
clearly to the necessity of armed inter
yention to restore order and peace. He will
not recommend the recognition Of the inde-
pendence Of Cuba. for the insurgents have
president and cabinet believe that travesty
would be presented to the world If. follow
ing the recognition Of independence the
United States Should as result Of war
anpexing the island.
The presidents message will be equiv
aleht to declaration Of war, and hos
tilities can only be averted by Spain
now yielding all.
pope Leo XIII is mediating between
Spain and Cuba, The efforts Of his
holiness have already resulted in an
appeal from Spain to the insurgents,
through the Autonomist cabinet, for an

peace and independence. 1t Is learned
that his holiness has represented to
Spain that it is the part Of wisdom to
make every possible concession, even
to surrendering the island absolutely.
rather than go to war with the United
States, which would inevitably result
In the loss Of Cuba and other Spanish
colonies and at the same time endan-

MADRID, April 4.-The correspond
ent here Of the Associated Press has
had an interview with a high person
age Of great authority who cleared I'D
many discrepancies in previous re-
ports, showing just how the papal in
tervention occurred. Unfortunately, the
name of this high parsonage cannot be
quoted, but no one is better qualified
to speak with knowledge Of the SUBJ
5ect. This minister said:
There Is no papal programme what
ever. What happened was that the
Spanish ambassador at the Vatican was
approached by Cardinal Rampolla (thA
pepal secretary Of state), who told him
the president Of the United States had
allowed 1t to be understood that papal
Intervention would be acceptable
The Spanish ambassador wired here
to that effect, and thereupon, we indf-
Gated that though having sent a cate
gortcal reply to President Mckinley
that terms having been conceded to
the last point consistent with Spanish
honor we We're certain the pope would
respect the rights and honor Of Spain,

impossible for our regular army fight
ing rebels to agree to offer an armistice
at the suggestion Of a certain foreign
power, but when the father Of Chris
tendon. without force, but with vast
moral power, offered Intervention, we
could not refuse accepting. knowing
well that reliance might be placed upon
his independent judgment. So, not an

the day by which the United States and
France will cooperate, through the
ministers at Denmark, in the establlsh-
ment Of q public cable station on the
Danish island of st. Thomas. The cable
Is owned by a French company, but its
use has become Of vital Importance to
the United States government owing to
a possible base of naval operations In
the Leeward islands.
Secretary Long was particularly de-
sirous of having this cable arrange
ment effected.
AS result of conferences a dis
patch was sent to the United States
minister at Copenhagen, asking him to
secure the consent Of the Danish gov
ernment and at the same time the
French authorities arranged to have
their minister at Copenhagen exert SIM
liar influences.
"Wait for Wednesday,"
"Wait for Wednesday," was the word
passed about the capitol today, and a
general understanding to that effect
was reached. The Republicans will not
initiate and the Democrats will not
try to force any action on Cuba until
Wednesday. when the presidents mes
sage will be received. With that un-
derstanding the senate foreign rela-
tions committee did not report and the
house foreign relations committee took
no action.
1t is known that the senate commit
tee has agreed upon resolution, prac-
tically the Foraker resolution, declar-
ing independence and Intervention
with an amendment fixing the re-
sponsibility for the destruction of the
Maine upon Spain either by design or
criminal negligence. The house foreign
affairs committee will report, if possi-
BILE, a resolution in line with the presi-
dents recommendations, and 1t 1.
known that efforts are being made to
have the resolutions Of both commits
tees agree with the presidents wishes.
Interesting statements are made by
senators and representatives who call
ed upon the president today, and the
impression gained from them was that
the message will declare for indepen6-
ence of Cuba.

armistice, but truce-a truce Of Cod
has been agreed upon.
This, however, requires action upon
the part Of the United States. conse-
quential action to our concession. The
rebels have been-not designedly, we
believe-assisted and encouraged by the
presence of American warships in the
neighborhood of the island. A contin-
uance Of this would initiate against
the pope's good office, and against the
hopes of peace.
I'VE know President Mckinley has
worked for peace, but an influence has
been growing like rising tide, and it
Is now a question whether any barrier
or embankment he would set across it's
progress would be strong enough to
Withstand it's force. Spain has shown
her willingness to secure peace by con-
cessions to the last point consistent
with her national honor. The future
depends upon the power Of the Ameri-
can government in controlling hostile
public opinion"
