O Notice Has Ueen Sent to Spain, Excitement Over the Spanish Fleet. Madrid Filled with Excitement, A Spanish Torpedo Destroyer Wrecked. Special to Journal. Washington, March 25 Tlie President this afternoou authorized the announce ment that the report of the court of inquiry shows that the battleship Maine was blown up by nil external explosion. The members of the Cabinet observed pledges of secrecy, while the. President. Rave out the bulletin announcing the finding of the court. The manager of the Associated Press at Washington telegraphs that: "The board of inquiry iuto the loss of the Maine rinds that the explosion was from the outside. It does not fix responsibility for the disaster. It does not express an opinion as to tlie character of explosive, but the testimony goes to show that it was a powerful submarine mine, the exact character ot which is not deter mined by testimony, though belief was expressed that it was what is known as a floating submarine mine. Th Board linds that there were two explosions, the first one from the outside and that set off one of the smaller magazines. There was nothing dramatic about the manner of Judge Advocate Marix when lie delivered the report to Secretary Long. He accompanied Secretary Long to the White House with the report. .Secretary Alger summoned Lieut. Marix, who remained and was consulted re garding the Onding of the court. The President announced that no visi tor would be received. The signilicance of the report is less now than it would have been a week ngo, for since that time tlie President bus decided for himself whether the Maine was blown up by Spain or not, and that Cuba must be free. The purpose of the forthcoming mes sage will not bo changed by' reading of the text of tlio report hut tlie verdict of the board will control in a measure the language used in telling of Spain's bar barity in Cuba. The Senate was in session toduy. The House considered the naval appropriation bill, and disposed of it. All the members ot tlie Cabinet were not present this morning until about 11 o'clock which is the usual hour ot meet, in it. The synopsis of the report was imidc after the Cabinet meeting and it was sent to Minister Woodford, at Madrid, at once, with Instructions to the Minister drafted by the Cabinet. Secretary Alger has ordered troops in the far west lo hold themselves In readi ness to move east at a moment's notice. Secretary Ling has Issued positive instructions to naval officers to begin immediately the inspection of naval militia wllli the views of determining how many are able lo enter the service of tlie United States if necessary at a moment's notice. These are the most signilicant orders yet given, nnd clearly demonstrate that the policy of tlio ad ministration is towards the freedom of I Cuba, even if it takes war to do It. Wheeler, of Alabama, introduced a resolution la the House authorizing the President to accent tenders of volunteer I Spanish torpedo flotilla is en routo there was the greatest excitement, aud hostile feeling was created. The officers of war ships said that it would be great a mis take to allow the Spanish torpedo boats to reach Porto Rico. Admiral Sicard expresses deep regret over the necessity for his retirement. He complimented Capt. Sampson, his sue. cessor, who is held to be a very admirable officer. Waterford, Ireland, March 25 (Spe cial) The Spanish torpedo destroyer Audax bus arrived here badly wrecked by a storm. The bows are stove in and the vessel will have to be practically re built. Madrid, March 25 (Special) The most intense excitement exists here today. The press comments severely upon the request of the United States for permis sion to blow up the wreck of the Maine with dynamite. There was a hasty meeting of the Spanish cabinet this afternoon to cousider the grave situation. The report on the loss of the Maine as given by the Spanish commission was considered at the meet ing. London, March 25 (Special) Com mander Brownson of the United States Navy, commissioned to inspect warships for purchase arrived at Paris and has gone to Italy to pursue his investigations of availablo vessels.

Washington, March S3 The first and longest period of waiting is at an end. The report of the naval court of inquiry on the Maine explosion is now in the hands of the President, and was today carefully gone over and discussed at an extended meeting of the Cabinet. Spain has been officially notified of the purport of the report. That ended the first stage of the case, and we have dow entered upon the second Binge, which is likely to be much shorter. The report together with a copy of the communication sent to Spain by the President, will bo sent to Cougress next week, and then what? It is impossible at this time to say what program will be followed in Con gress, because circumstances are likely to bring about changes at any stage of the proceedings. But it is certain that an understanding has been arrived at be tween the President and the Congress ioual leaders of all parties, who have conferred with him in the last three days and believed that in accordance with that understanding the report and ac companying message will be referred to committees as soon as received in the House and Senate, and that thoFO com. mittens will take whatever action that President McKinley may desire; a:id wlmt he will desire will depend largely upon the answer received from Spain.

S. ser vice. The war spirit Is growing In Congress, instead of lessening. Some of the most conservative men in both Senate and House have become oonvi need since Senator Proctor ti Id what be saw in Cuba tint war was inevitable, and have concluded that the best thing to do is lo hurry it up, in order that It can be quickly fought out; they believe thero would lie less naniuge done to tlie material Inter esls of the country by a short ami vlcto rloii war than by a continuation for an indefinite period of present conditions, Senator Proctor's story of Cuba lias been troops, to purchase armt and ammuuitiun, corroborated nud added to by the 3 THE IX EST EXOUll IS J.
