The estate to which Northedge has n

knew that 100000 sterling has been

Counsel w II. Gilchrist found the son

COMING N A FEW DAYS.
Spanish Rcpiy to the Peremptory Demand
to Cease War In Cuba.

washington, March 2.-As stated In
the Associated Press, the President
some days ago made n peremptory de-
mand upon Spain to put an end imme-
dlately to hostilities in Cuba, to release
the concentrates and to permit them
to return to their homes and resume
their several occupations unmolested.
This statement Is made on good au-
thority, and since that demand was
communicated TO Spain, the President
has not taken step backward or al
lowed himself to be persuaded into
modifying II in the least particular.
Spalns final reply to this demand, IT
is known, Is now receiving the earnest
consideration of the Spanish authori-
ties at Madrid. and their final reply
may be reasonably expected within the
next few days. should these demands
be rejected there Is the highest author
ity for stating that the President would
not hesitate n moment as to his future
course but would Immediately lay the
whole record before Congress and be
guided by its instructions.
As n preliminary step toward peace,
II has been proposed to SPAIN though
this last proposition has not taken the
shape of demand MS yet at least, that
the Spanish government withdraw Its
troops from the island, and that the
Cubans be rlven their Independence on
a basis of Indemnity that would be re-
garded as Just in amount by the United
States and other nations of the world
and fair to both contending parties.

ACCUSING THE MAINE OFFICERS.
Attempts of spnniards to Charge the Maine
Crew with Destroying the Ship.

Havana, March Cola Lucha pub
fishes a communication signed "Sil-
vlus," asking number OF questions,
among them:
what about TIE discomfort of the
sailors of the Maine on account of be-
ing denied shore leave?"
Did the officers of the Maine say
that life on the United States warships
is so hard that they hoped to see the
whole navy blown up?"
"How about the dinner on the steam
err City of Washington, where all the
officers saved were present."
what kind of precautions were TAX
en- when guns were loaded and tor
pedoes primed?"
why We're no torpedoes found after
the wreck"
What about the confusion after the
explosion. so great that the sailors did
not lower the boats?"
La Lucha's correspondent says these
are grave questions that the American
court of inquiry should have settled be-
fore insulting Spain by deciding that
the explosion was external.

SPANISH ATTITUDE INroLERABLE.


New York, March 30.-Acoordlng to
the Washington correspondent of the
Tribune. naval officers who have talked
with Capt Sigsbee since his arrival in
this city are more firmly convinced than
ever that war will inevitably come out
Of the Cuban situation. and that the
energy with which the army and navy
have made extraordinary preparations
in the last few weeks Will not have
been for naught.
As soon as the commander ~ the
Maine reported at the navy depart
ment. he wasted no time in explaining
to Capt. Crownlnshleld. chief Of nayl-
cation. the intolerable attitude OF Span
ish sympathzers in Havana harbor and
and city toward Americans and par
ticularly their luminosity to American
naval officers now at work ON the
wreck OF the Maine.
He said trouble could not he avoided
much longer and when n collision did

ties would be powerless to protect

DISSATISFIED WITH DELAY.
Fifty Republican Congressman Tired of
the Diily -dallymg with Spain.

Washington. March 29--The revolt In
the House against further delay of ac-
tino on the Cuban issue eliminated to-
day in conference of Republican
members, whose ideas are in accord
ance with a positive early course.
About fifty representatives attended,
representing all sections. Representa-
tive Hopkins of Illinois, member of
the ways and means committee, pre-
sided. Representative JOY of Missouri
was secretary. The meetin- was called
to take steps to secure immediate in
Prevention in some form and the
recognition of Cuban Independence. 1t
was the first definite step toward this
end since the Presidents message was
submitted yesterday.
Up TO this afternoon the sentiment
was half concealed but there was
strong feeling against voting money for
Cuban relief unless accompanied by
action to stop the war. The meeting
today was called with "A view to accom-
plishing the unqualified removal of the
Spanish troops from Cuba. and prompt
armed intervention in the affairs of
that island. Late this afternoon the
word was quietly passed around, but
many who were enthusiastically in fa>
vor of Intervention failed of notiflcas
ton, though the number present would
be sufficiently large, by consolidation
with the Democratic forces, to carry
uul u prOBrain.
Representative Hopkins,as chairman,
briefly stated the objects of the meet
ing. He indicated his disappointment
that the Presidents message carried
no outline of definite responsive policy
toward Spain, and he did not believe
further delay should be broOked. He,
however, thought the administration
might have another day or two In
which TO act. and, failing to do So that
Congress should take the matter into
its own hands independently and at
once. He favored action looking to
Cuban independence. but made no spe-
citic suggestions as to the method of
Its accomplishment.
Representative Tawney OF Minnesota,
another member Of the ways ana
means committee, said this country
should not stop short OF securing the
absolute Independence of Cuba. He re-
ferred to efforts to have the matter
brought directly before the House. ana
SAID he wished to discuss n resolution
for the prompt consideration of the
question on the floor
Representative Belknap OF Illinois,
who favored immediate decisive ac-
ton, took the floor and asked n number
of questions, tending to bring out the
sentiment OF the meeting and the poll
icy to be followed. The feeling seemed
to be that no action other than the
