MESSAGE DELAYED
AT LEE’S REQUEST
President McKinley Receives a
Cable Dispatch From Consul
General Advising That the
Lives Of Americans in Hav=
ana Are in Danger.
Washington, April 6.—The mes¬
sage did not go in today and' will
be delayed until Monday. Shortly
before 2 o’clock President McKin¬
ley hastily summoned congressional
leaders of all parties to the execu¬
tive office. He showed them a cable
dispatch just received from Consul
General Lee, dated Havana, saying
that if the message should be sent
in before Monday he would not be
responsible for the lives of Ameri¬
cans in Cuba.
The consul declared, however,
that he was making every effort to
get the American citizens together
to leave at the earliest possible mo¬
ment, the delay being occasioned
by the difficulties in getting all the
American interests safely protected,
A further delay has been occasioned,
he stated, by the difficulties in get¬
ting a sufficient number of boats to
bring the Americans, desiring to
return, away.
The hasty cable message from
Consul General Lee is believed to
indicate that there is serious trouble
ahead in Havana and that the
American feeling is so strong a
messacre of , Americans, . following
the message, is not improbable.
A feeling of the greatest disap-
pointment was manifested in con-
gress when , the . word went round
Member, in <he lobbj- diecbe.ed the
cause of this further dela^ in groups,
Some of them, knowing that Gen-
„i t CS u * a Ca ,, ° e , ior time
’
haran g ued , their an g r V colle agues,
wbo seemed to believe there was a
trick in the proposed delay.
Congressmen are willing to wait
on General Lee’s request, declaring
as he does, that Americans are in
danger, but on no other condition
would they delay action, and
dent McKinley assured the leaders
who were called to his office that
the message is withheld for the four
days absolutely on no other con-
dition.
Thenavy depar , ment has been
informed of the departue of the
Bache and Mangrove from Havana
with a large number of Americans
on board. Consul General Lee will
remain until the last life is safe, it
is stated.
SHIPS SENT FOR GEN. LEE.
He is Asked to Get American
Citizens Together at Once,
so as to Leave Island.
Washington, April 5.—Members
of the house have been informed
today that vessels have been dis¬
patched to Havana to take off
General Lee and our consul officers
as well as all Americans who desire
to leave the island. Consul General
Lee cabled the state department to-
day that, in his opinion, it would
be impossible to get all the Ameri-
cans together, preparatory to leave
the island before Sunday, and he
advised that complete preparations
be made to this end.

SPAIN’S REPLY AN INSULT;
0 f»i L Y SHREWD DIPLOMACY
The Government evades the Ques¬
tion Directly and Contents
Itself With a Desperate Fight
For Time.
Washington, April i.—The re¬
ply of Spain to the demands of the
United states is said, in effect, to
be :
The independence of Cuba means
the parting or cession of Spanish
territory which cannot be done
without the consent of the Spanish
cortes, which is not in session and
will not be in session until April
24, and consequently no definite
answer can be returned to the de¬
mand of the United States until
the cortes assembles.
Then a counter proposition is
submitted that the Cuban matter
shall be settled upon a basis equita¬
ble among nations.
The United States is asked to
give Spain time to treat with the
insurgents, and ascertain what can
be done in the nature of a peaceful
settlement.
Senators who know the nature
of the reply say’t is a very shrewd
piece of diplomacy and made for its
effect upon t.he world at large.
It is said the reply is unsatisfac¬
tory to the president and that he
does not believe it will be satisfac-
tory to congress.
Record office, April 6.—Since
the reception of this note, the Uni-
ted Sute , government has closed
negotiations. It is now with con-
gress to say whether we shall have
war or not. The president is ex-
peeled to outline a policy in a com-

says :• aul
“I have it from Spanish

is to secure peace in Cubl

It is now given out that th
