The President has apparantly given up hope of peace, Congress will wait at least until Monday before declaring war. The approach of the Spanish torpedo ileet is the immediate cause of anxiety, especially among Naval men who know its strength. Two Spanish warships' left Havana yesterday, destina tion unknown. The Madrid populace will probably not allow the Sagasta Ministry to give up Cuba. The Ministry may conclude that a ' for eign war is less to be feared than a domestic uprising, yet the only chance of avoiding war seems to be a complete surrender of Cuba by Spain. The New York stock market closed at a low , point last night, indicating that financiers expect war. The Cabinet is quoted us unanimously expecting hostilities. Any announcement of the sailing of the flying squadron from Hampton Roads will probably be an indication that war has begun. Special to Journal. ' Wasmsqtos, April 1. The reply of Spain to the demand of the United 8tatet that IioatilUiet shall at once oeaM on the island ot Cuba is as follows. It it de clared by th President and Congress to be unsatisfactory. Spain offer to "revoke ttao reconcen tradot orders and allow them to return to their hornet and the will appropriate three million peseta, equal to 9600,000, for tbeir relief. Spain will leave tht question of peace between the Spanish force and the Insur gent to be determined by the Cuban autonomist legislature which it to be elected this month, and which meets the flrst weekpf My." Spain will "grant an armistice In the Interval If It is asked for by the general- In-cbli f of the insurgent. " Bps lo ask until April fifteenth to re ply to the United Hlateanote. The Cuban J government, (meaning the present home rile authorities In Cuba, not the insur gents) appeal to the President to respect the will of the majority of the people ot Cuba who favor home rule under the Spanish domain. No one however at Washington be lieve that these requests will be granted by Congress. : The Cabinet unanimously agreed after reading Minister Woodford's message containing the Spanish reply, which was received at midnight last night, and they decided that its conditions were unsatis factory. It was decided tlmt all attempts to reach a diplomatic agreement should be ended at once. The opinion of the Cabinet was unani mous that war was certain and that all further negotiations must be declared oil and it will be left with Congress hereafter to deal directly with Madrid. A strong sentiment has developed in the Committee on Foreign Relations iu the Senate to favor an absolute declara tion of war against Spain, based on the Maine explosion. The President is preparing a special message to Congress to be sent in at an early date. Senators and Representatives who saw the President today told him that it would be impossible to delay the action on the Cuban question beyond Monday. It is announced that Minister Wood ford iB preparing to leave Spain at the earliest possible hour. The Senate this afternoon agreed to adjourn until Monday. The attache of the Spanish legation says that the Spanish Minister will withdraw from Washington within the week. The sailing of the Flj in Squadron from Hampton Rou ts will probably be the first act of war. The fleet is under orders to be ready to sail at instaut notice. The warship Minneapolis, which left League Island Navy yard yesterday sailed from Hampton Roads under scaled orders. The Spanish warships Viscaya and Almiranle Oquendo sailed from Havana today. Any further news regarding their sailing was stopped by the government censorship over telegrams. A steamer from the Canary Islands reports that she passed the Spanish flotilla containing six torpedo boat de stroyers, and four torpedo boats, en route to Cuba with an escort of warships.
