Posit.vely Will RemJn But 3 Days THE SPANIARDS SAY WAR IT MUST BE The Officials Are Reluctantly Meeting What Can’t Be Avoid* ed as the Feeling of the Popu* lace is Such That if Cuba is Relinquished a Civil War is In* evitable. Spanish Papers Are Insulting and Declare That It Will Be a Long and Bloody Bat* tie. Madrid, April 19.—It is now evi¬ dent Jthat Spain intends to fight. The news here of the action of congress, which is considered a dec- laration of war, creates the wildest excitement and the populace are yelling for war. ^ ’ s known that the Spanish of- facials are reluctantly meeting what the y know is inevitable, but they consider a foreign war prefer- able to a civil war, and one or the other ,s imperative. Tfie correspondent of the Asso- ci ited Press was the first person to take the news of action of congress jj ie United States minister, Gen- erai eral Stewart DiewdU U L. Woodford nuouiwu, and auu to to the minister for the colonies, Senor Moret, and the minister for foreign affairs, Senor Gullon. The premier, Senor Sagasta, had a long conference with the queen regent this morning. In the meantime war preparations - continue with a rush> Everybody * s excited and business is practically suspended. The Imparcial today commenting upotl t h e commercial aspect of the » wbich it regards 6 as certain, “as soon as President McKinley stops vaccilating," says: “The Americans who are rushing j n j 0 war will be surprised to find . not an affair of wee ks,but of months. It will last until the commercials are more anxious for peace than they are now anxious for war.” fa**~ -----„ jita m If pjl; * ® a Jillkm,: iMIll jljll •n ~y‘ <sb - — SEAGOING BATTLESHIP IOWA.

The Liberal says : “The Spaniards are tired of talk of papal and other interventions. War is a matter of hours, in spite of the rumors of delays upon Presi- dent McKinley’s part.” Continuing the Liberal urges Spain to stop argument, adding: “The. time has come for blows.and not for words.” It is officially announced that the < ' lasS cruisers \ iscaya and Almirante Oquendo, last re- ported at Porto Rico, arrived at St. Vincent, Cape Verde Islands, at noon today to reinforce the Spanish fleet neet there tnere. The terms of the speech which the queen regent will deliver at the opening of the cortez tomorrow are jealously guarded, but it is said that the speech will prove firm, convinc¬ ing and satisfactory to the national sentiments. It is claimed here that perfect unanimity prevails in Spain to face war rather than yield to the de¬ mands of the United States.

The two will be practically one act and signed simultaneously. President McKinley has given Spain until Saturday to reply. The following are the resolutions which will cause war : “Whereas, The abhorent condi¬ tions which have existed for more than three years in the island of Cuba, so near our own borders, have shocked the moral sense cf the people of the United States, have been a disgrace to Christian civilization, culminating, as they have in the destruction of a United States battleship, with 266 of its officers and crew, while on a friend¬ ly vikit in the harbor of Havana, and cannot longer be endured, as has been set forth by the president of the United States, in his message to congress of April ii,«i 898, upon which the action of congress was invited ; therefore, be it “Resolved, That the people 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 government of the United States does hereby demand, that the gov¬ ernment of Spain at once relinquish its authority and government in the island of Cuba, and withdraw ita land and naval forces from Cuba and Cuban waters “Third, That the president of the United States be, and he is hereby directed and empowered to use the entire land and naval forces of the United States and 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.
