WAR DECLARATION.
Congress Formally Declares War e

Congress Formally Deolares War to
Mako Everything Regular
WASHINGTON, April 25.-A resolution
formally declaring war against Spain
will be introduced in the Congress of
the United States to-day. The decis-
ion to do so has been reached after
mature deliberation in order to safe
gusrd the interests of the United
States.
The President will send a message
to Congress, setting forth the facts in
the case, and asking Congress for
mally to declare war in order that
there may be no misunderstanding on
the part of other nations.
The most important point in the
message, will be the announcement
that Spain has made formal reply to
our ultimatum. This reply has not
been given to the public. and it was
supposed that none had been received.
The document is a formal ac-
knowledgment by Spain, and also an
acceptance by that country of the
ultimatum as virtual declaration of
war. Congress will, therefore be
asked to reeogniz. this condition of az
fairs and to declare it to the world,
using Spain's concession as q reason
for it
The war resolution has been pre-
pared, and it is understood that the
two committees having charge of the
foreign affairs of the two Houses Of
Congress will be prepared to report
on it very shortly-probably immedi-
stely after the reading of the mes
sage. An effort will then be made to
have the resolution taken up and
passed forthwith, and it is not now be-
lieved that there will be any formid-
able opposition to this course in either
House.
1t was said at the navy department
that no additional information had
been received of the movements of the
Spanish fleets rendezvoused at Cadiz
and at the Cape de Verde islands
Every step taken by these fleets is
promptly reported to the department
