Washington, ID. c., April 1.-THE

no demonstration, The message was

After the message was referred to the

surgents would look like conquest.

tons, who has been credited with sup
porting the Presidents policy. said that
Congress could not be induced to make

dorsement of a majority of the sem

from speaking about 1t until they

those senators who had In the past few
days shown a disposition to slacken
their opposition to conservative

turn to their original positions. a
large number of the Democratic SEN
ators refused to express themselves at
all. as did several Republicans, on the
ground that as they could not speak
in complimentary terms they would
say nothing at all. The most signin-

PRELIMINARY TO THE MESSAGE.


Washington, April 11.-President Nc
kinley announced positively, shortly
before 10 O'Clock this morning. that his
message would be submitted to Con-
Eress promptly today. 1t Is understood
the intention is TO place 1t in the hands
Of Congress a little after the opening
of the two houses at noon.
Several members OF the cabinet came
to the White House and conferred with
him before the document went out of
his possession and into the legislative
hands. but there was no cabinet ses-
sion, the visits OF some Of the members
being in the nature of Individual inter
views. Secretary Alger came over a few
minutes after 2 o'clock and while he
was still with the President Secretary
Bliss arrived and Joined In the confer
ence.
and Representative Skinner of North
Carolina had an interview with the

to visitors but preparations went ahead
for the opening of the grounds TO thou
sands Of Washington youth for their
annual egg-rolling festival and at 10
o'clock the gates were opened for this
purpose. The threatening skies and an
occasional drop OF rain made the out

promising though the indications were
that rain might be deferred at least
until afternoon.
Not n single line has been or will be
stricken from the original message. and
the only change may be In the incorpor-
alton in the message OF what the Span

cessation OF hostilities."
This Is the statement made by
