Madrid, Spain.-The report of the
Spanish Commission of Inquiry into
the Maine calamity will be printed in
full in the official gazette.
A synopsis of it, furnished by the
Ministry of Marine, is printed in the
Heraldo.
This abstract indicates that the re-
port is strongly drawn up to show that
| the explosion could not have been
caused by a torpedo or by mine Of
any kind, as none of the phenomena
usually produced by such means was
noticed in the port of Havana at the
time of the disaster or Immediately
afterward and that no trace of any
thing was found that could justify the
theory of an outside explosion.
The report gives the testimony of
Spanish officer, Julio Perez, and of the
senior pilot, Francisco Aldao, both
eyewitnesses of the catastrophe. They
swore that they noticed that the only
explosions were in the interior of the
Maine when she was on fire, and that
there was absolutely no disturbance
on the surface of the water in the har-
Dor or around the Maine that could
have been caused by any exterior
cause.
Much stress is laid in the published
extracts from the report upon the al
legged fact that after the catastrophe
no dead fish were found floating in
the harbor, whereas, whenever wrecks
have been removed with the help of
explosives everybody has noticed the
destruction of fish, which are abundant
In the port of Havana.
Much stress is also laid upon the fact
that the catastrophe did no damage to
the quays none 20 the vessels moored
close to the Maine, whose officers and
crew noticed nothing that could lead
them to suppose that the disaster was
caused otherwise than by an accident
inside the American vessel.

Washington, d. CAS- a result Of
the exchange of notes between the
European Powers in regard to the ad-
visibility of concerted action in the
Hispano-American question, the indi-
cations tonight are that no further
representations will be made to this
government in the matter. AS the
matter rests upon so many circum-
stances, some of them trivial in char
acter, it cannot be said with absolute
positivenss at this time what the final
result of the notes may be. 1t was
pointed out to me tonight that Lord
Salisbury is at Nice, and Mr. Balfour,
who is acting as Premier, is absent
from London, and that the Under Sec
retary of Foreign Affairs, not having
a voice in the policy of government,
cannot commit Great Britain one way
or the other on the propositions made
by the Ambassadors NJ France and
Austria
The absence of Lord Salisbury and
Mr. Balfour is a regrettable circum-
stance, in the eyes of the Ambassadors
here one which is already big fac
tor in the failure of the Powers to
agree upon any further representa-
tions to the United States. | under
stand that France and Austria propose
to continue their efforts until the last
moment, but it is felt here that their
labors will be of no avail and that war
between the United States and Spain
is absolutely unavoidable.

Malaga, Spain.-A large group of
young people, who had met previously
in another part of town to organize a
demonstration, arrived in front of the
American Consulate and began to cheer
for Spain, but did not then utter any
cry against the United States.
The Chief of Police tried to disperse
them, but only succeeded in driving
the crowd from the front of the Con-
sulate.
Meantime another group posted
themselves opposite the American Con-
sulate. They carried a Spanish ban
ner and after many patriotic cries be-
gan to stone the building.
All the windows were smashed and
a part of the furniture of the Consulate
was seriously damaged.

A GALL FOR VOLUNTEERS.
GOMEZ PROMISES AID.
BILL PREPARED AUTHORIZING A CALL
FOR FORTY THOUSAND MEN.

1t VIII Promptly Pass Congress, and the
Call is Expected to he Issued This Week
All, the Same as Civilians-Cuban Army
Needs Arms and Ammunition.
Washington, Apr.20 1t is the conf
dent expectation of the President and the
Secretary of War that the Government will
have the material promise of land forces
aggregatng at least 100, 900 men for the oc-
cupation of the island of Cuba and the de-
fence of the eastern and southern seaboard.
The preparations to accomplish that end
have been perfected in almost every detail.
A bill will be introduced in Congress all-
thorizing the President to call for volun-
teers, and if the same promptness is shown
i'll passing this measure that has character
lied the other war preparations, Mr.. Nc
knley will be Empowered to issue the call
to arms before the middle of the week.
The Government las received assurances
from a multitude of sources all over the
country that the response to such procla-
nation would be, if necessary, not less
than 1000, 900 men. The bill will author
ize the enlistment of troops to the maximum
number of Acc, 900 il the measure is intro
duced in its present form. 1t designates
the troops authorized by the bill as tile
''proyisional army"
Each regiment is to consist of l 600 men,
and the President is authorized to appoint
all I.rs I
The President is to issue proclamation for
enlistment of provisional troops in such
numbers as in his judgment are deemed
necessary, not to exceed 400 900.
1t can be said upon good authority that
the policy of the War Department is op-
posed to extending special consideration to
State militia organizations in the forthcom
ing call for volunteers. 1t has for some
time been settled in the opinion of the de-
partment that the constitutional objections
III the way of calling out the militia in their
present status as state troops cannot be
overcome. One of the main objects of the
conference held at the department with
commanders of militia organizations was to
reach an understanding in regard TO the
conditions of using State troops in the ex-
p 'cted war with Spaid.
The Cuban Junta at Jacksonville, Fla,

Garcia has passed the trocha, and he and
Gomez, with Is, 900 troops, are now march
ing westward and toward Havana. The
insurgents are recruiting in all sections,
and from good authority it is ascertained
that Gomez promises to have from 40, 200
to 10000 troops near Havana to aid the
| United States in reducing it. The insur-
gent army is suffering much from lack oI

Form-The Clause Recognizing the Inde-
pendence of the Cuban Republic Stricken
Out by the House-This Action Ratified by
the Conference Committee.
Washington, d. c., April 20.-After one
of the hardest fought battles between the
two houses known in many years, Congress
came to an agreement on the Cuban resolu-
tions, which We're passed and sent to the
follows;
''First-That the people of the island of
Cuba are and of right ought to be free and
independent.
'Second.-That it is the duty of the
United States to demand, and the Govern
ment of the United States does here.
by demand, that the Government of Spain
at once relinqush its authority and govern
ment in the island of Cuba and withdraw
its land and naval forces from Cuba and
Cuban waters.
''Ihird-That the President of the Uni
ted States be, and he hereby is, empowered
and directed to use the entire land and
naval lNlNtS VI lllt tlllteu DldltS, W
call into the actual service of the United
States the militia of the several States to
such extent as may be necessary to carry
these resolutions into effect.
"Fourth-That the United States hereby
disclaims any disposition or intention to ex-
ercise sovereignty, jurisdiction or control
over said island, except for the pacitication
thereof, and asserts its determination when
that is accomplished to leave the govern
ment and control of The island to its peo-
pie"
When the resolutions were sent to con-
ference, the Senate conferrees receded from
their contention for recognition of the
Cuban Republic, but insisted on reinsert-
ing the words 'are and" before fought of
right to be free and independent" in the
first clause. This the House conferrees
would not concede. and disagreement
was reported. A further conference was
ordered, and an agreement was reached as
given above.
The report was adopted in the Senate by
vote of AZ to 35, and in the House by 80
to 6.
