The Washington Post yester day contained a special article undoubtedly inspired by the Administration. It is a detailed account of the receiving of General Lee's cable from Havana, requesting, almost demanding, that the President's message de delayed until Monday to allow all Americans to leave Cuba. The article quotes the words used by the President to the Cabinet and the instant agree ment of the council in his view that the fate of Lee and two thousand Americans hung in the balance. ' The article also contains an account of what transpired in the sudsequent secret session of the Senate and tho replies of CjiairninQ Davis ,. that he , had a read the message himself, and that it would be satisfactory. The dissatisfaction at the de lay is reflected in the dispatches. The Soutli, however, will ac cept the appeal of General Lee. The war spirit appears to be rising in Madrid. Any infor mation from that source is unreliable. The Administration asserts positively that no negotiations ' are being carried on with Mad rid. There is less news of prepara tion for war. This only indi-. cates that all preparations are complete. The Navy, officers and men, are impatient to fight. and from onr price on it" you'd never gueu that wheat it a dollar a 2.

Washington, April 7 It ii impossible to express the feeling of Indignation and disgust prevailing among Senator! and Representative!! owing to the events of yesterday and today. However, an "armistice" hit been de clared between Congress and the Presi dent, pending which an effort will be made to recapture the lost situation of confidence In the President that mysteri ously vauUhed during the events of the list few day. Congress is disposed to accept the ex planation of the determination to with hold the message, provided tho President stick! to hii Drat statement that the delay in tending in the me sage is due to .the necessity of providing for the safety of tho Americans In Cuba. The deep disgust that has seiied upon both ilousce of Congreu, is well tinpon the public over the delay ihown by the Administration, the necessity for which wu attributed to threatened rioti in Ha ana, ii attributed to the discovery that there were no rloti in Havana and all was quiet Ihere. The indignation at the Inaction 'of the President bai become Intense in Washington. Congressman (Iroivenor, after a con ference with (he President, nyi that there will be no change In Hie message as now made up. unlvi there a change of fuels upon which it ii basrd.'and that such a change la considered unlikely. The Bet4ie has agreed to meet and ad Jnurn from day to day until Monday when it ii Delisted that all Americana will be out of Cuba. Senator Gray of the Senate Committee oa Foreign Relatione, aftct a talk witb the President, ayf that Minliter Wood fold at Madrid and General Lee at Ha vana will not be required to remain at their letpectlve poeu after the opening of next week. Nobody at the Capital believe In peaceful attllement of (he situation. The postponement of McKlnlcy'i m wi ngs has Incroaoed the excitement and prolonged Cabinet council! have 'added to it. The statements that Spain has yielded are known to be utterly untrue. The Spaniih Cabinet has unanimously deci ded to atand by their position and the Queen Regent confirms tho action. Mewa fram Madrid. Premier Bagasta denies the reported dissension in the Spanish Cabinet. The most striking feature of the situation at Madrid is that owing to the delay at Washington for the last week, the opin ion has gained ground among the Span iards that the Americans are unprepared for war and afraid to fight. This opin ion has resulted in the defiant attitude that Spain has assumed, The report is received at Madrid that the American fleet would simultaneously attack Cuba, Porto Rico and the Phllli pine Islands. The report adds to the rage of the Spaniards, After the Cabinet meeting at Madrid, a semi-official note was issued from gasta and the serious announcements contained in it caused much excitement and bellicose talk. The cafes were crowded with people eagerly discussing the situatioa ami approving the attitude of the Cabinet. The position of the Cabinet is strongly applauded by the Army officers. The departure of Minister Woodford's family for Paris is confirmed. A I Havana. General Lee cables today that it la still quiet in the city of Havana. Two hun dred Americans left today, in addition to those who already bud received their passports and. left by the government steamer. To these three hundred and eighty-six passports had been issued. Although no disturbances have broken out, there is inttnsi excitement in Ha vana. The wharves arc piled thick with the baggage of the refugees. The streets are patrolled by cavalry. The panic among the Cubans in Hn van:i far exceeds that of the American residents. They realize that in the event of hostilities they will bo unable toescape from the in' and and will be nt the mercy of the dreaded Spanish volunteers. They want to go to the United States '.f possi ble to do so. A wealthy farmer has been assassinated near Havana by the SpanMi police. His offense was in giving shelter to wounded Cubans. Four reconcentrados were found munieied this morning, claimed by the Spanish to be due to the Cu bans. Secretary Day snys General Lee will probably leave Havana Saturday, that Americans are rapidly leaving and no important developments have occurred in the situation in Havana. F.ir.irla Fur Peace, Premier Sagasta has received another important communication from Pope Leo. It was the subject of a special meeting of the Spanish Cabinet at Madrid. The representatives of six European nations called upon the President and the Secretary of Stato today. They were the Ambassadors and ministers of England, France, Germany, Austria, Russia and Italy. Their object was to present the desire that peace be preserved If possible. The visit was of only short duration, The European representative tendered the good oflices of their respective! gov ernments in the hope of the maintenance of peace and the re-cstablishment of order in Cuba, The President resronded, recognizing the good will that prompted the friendly communication and said that he ihared with them the deslie that the outcome of the situation in Cuba would be the main tenance of peace and the establish ment of order on the island, tbui terminating the chronic cor. condition of disturbance on the islai d, The President also laid that the Unite! Stalei woi confident that equal approba tion would be ihown for in own earnest and unselfish endeavor to fulfill Its duty to humanity by ending the tituatlon in definite manner, (he prolongation of which hoi become insufferable.

April 7. f Everybody was all excitement yester day when the bulletin boards and the newspaper extras gave the news that General Lee left Havana for Key West. The war fever spreads even to the small bov. one of whom came home, direct from the telegraph office with the start line news that General Lee had been killed in Spain. Everything gives way to war discussions. The weather bureau predicted another heavy frost last night, Governor Russell has not yet said whether be would or would not accept the resignation of L. C. Caldwell as a member and chairman of the R. R. Com mission. Some of the Populists favor the plan of trying Democratic fusion. S. Otho Wil son is the leader on the Republican sidi of it- There is very little doubt though, but what at the State Convention on May 17 will form a proposition to be sub- itted to the Democratic State Conven tion on the 20th. There were 2 car loads of sailors that passed here yesterday afternoon on their way from Texas to Norfolk to go aboard the war vessels. The act establishing the Railroad com mission is so worded, that an appeal, in hich no exception is made, to the facts as found by the commissioners has been taken direct to the Supreme court, now the Supreme court hands down an opinion that the Superior court having been created by the Constitution, the legislature canuot abolish it either in hole or in part by giving toothcrcourts riginal jurisdiction exclusive of or con current with jt.
