Iastrncts Him Congress Now is Responsible For Delay, Opening of Hostilities of Uncertain Date. Not Likely that the Powers Will ltenew Their Offers. Special to Journal. Washington, April IS It would seem a man up a tree that the complaints Congress recently miule of the slow ness of the President was an instance of the pot calliog the kettle black." From talk in Congress before the Presi dent's message went in it was supposed that the message would he acted upon within n day after it was received, hut it has been before Congress a week today, and that resolution authorizing forcible intervention is not yet in the President's hands, although it is hoped that H will be by tomorrow. Tho House adopted a csolutiou promptly, but the Senate. affcr wasting four days in talk without bringing forward a single new idea, un ss tlie assertion of Senator Wellington that there was no reason for our going to war witli Spain can be oonsidercd one, adopted a resolution including a provis ion for the recognition of Cuba, which makes more delay. Tiiesc delays would be more aggravating were it not for the certainty that they cannot lust much long.r and that they cannot change the iiltimate result the driving of Spain out of Cuba. , While it probably is not true that these delays are the result of plot ng, n is not surprising that suspicion hould be expressed by the impatient. Accordiug to statements made by members of the administration, the Pies ideut will lose no time in pulling armed intervention into effect after the joint resolution authorizing it is in his hand and the rushing of all available troops in the regular jinny to southern ports looks like immediate business: but he will probably first demand the peaceable evacuation uf Cuba by Spam, grunting day or two for Spain to answer. That will mean more time. It should also be remembered that it the President is so disposed lie can wilh hold his signature from the intervention resolution for ten days. The resolution will not be binding until he signs it. So many predictions have been upset by un expected delays that few are being made iu Washington just now. We are going to war. Of thai everybody is certain, bui nobody is certain whether the shooting will start this week, or next, or the week after. If the representatives of the great European powers in Washington arc cor rectly reporting tiie state of Congres sional sentiment to their govt-rnmcnls, nothing is likely to come of the renewed talk about the intention of the six greatest European powers to attempt by joint note to pcrsuudo this government not to force Spain out of Cuba, and that fails, to make to make a threat of re sorting to force to compel us to keep our hands off of Spain's island possessions. That Austria, France und Italy would be willing to go to almost any cxtrcmo to aid Spain, if they c.uild be assured of the assistance of England, Germany and Uu- sia ia very well known. But' the determination of Congress which 'knows that it reflects tho over whelming sentiment of. the country, would not be chauged one iota, even formal notice was served on this country that European force would be used to prevent the carrying out of the joint reso lution just adopted, to drive Spain out ol Cuba, "No foreign dictation," would become a companion slogan to "Remem ber the Maine," the minute that the European powers attempted to meddle with our settlement of the Cuban ques tion.

Today comes the announcent that if the Nortli Carolina troops arc called out, Major Hayes, the detailed (J. S. Army officer, iu is acting adjutant general here, will he placed in eomnland. It can scarcely fail to bring forth opposition, for we have a numberof men, North Cnrolln ians, who ate fully cohpetent to take iiarge of our North Carolina troops, should they need a' commander without bringing an outsider to the front in Hint way. Major Hayes is an officer in the 6th Cavalry and would naturally feel more at home with his own people. Property to the amount of about $43,- 000 has changed hands within the last few weeks right in the business part of the city, and handsome buildings will be erected. Never in the history of Raleigh has there been such steady and general mprovenicnt going on. One would scarcely believe the removal of the fence from around the Capitol grounds would make such a great improvement in the looks of that part of the city. "A cob web party" is a new kind of musemiit that is to be given here this week by one of the young girls clubs. It is not explained in the invitations that have been issued. The game of ball between Harvard and the N, C. University teams on Saturday at C.inpul Hill resulted in a tie, 10 to 10. Tomorrow at the Church of the Good S'icpherd Mr. L. A. Mahler and Miss Mamie Simmons will be married. Miss Simmons is the daughter of ex-Revenue Collector Simmons and Mr. Mahler is one of the firm of II, Mahler Sons, the largest jewelers in the State. lhe Kailroau Commission muddle Is at stand still. Governor Russell has been back from Wilmington for 43 hours and yet he has not made a single move.

The Spanish Minister, ncnor Polo, yesterdaj closed a charter for an American steamer of the Plant line, which will carry practically the entire Spanish colony of Tampa, Flu. to Havana today. In making the char ter, the Minister gave assurances that in case of hostilities the steamer could be cleared from Havana, giving ample pro tection, and allowed to return to an American port. The Spanish party will number 408, most of them being young men who have offered their services in the Spanish Army in case of war. This is the point at which seven reg iments of Infantry have been ordeied to o mobilize withiu tho next few days, although there is no intimation that the departure of the Spanish colony is due tu lhe concentration ot the United States iroaps at Tampa.

DO HOT AGREE. anil Eous3 Still Apart aLaieHouT. Resolution (iocs Hack and Forth Seuate Yields the Recognition Clnusc. Two II mines May Coi.C'.ir Before Finally Adjourning. Special to Journal. Washington, April 18, (11:30 p. m.) The two Howes of Congress are in night session and have not yet come to an agreement. The Cuban resolution passed by the Senate is composed of the House head ing, the Senate preamble, Senate resolu. tion, the Turpie amendment, and a fourth section composed by Mr. Teller disclaim ing any intention of the United States to control or exercise sovereignly over t le Island. The first Bection reads as follows: "That the people of the island of Cuba are, and of right ought to be free und independent, and that the government of the United States hereby recognizes the republic of Gubu as the true and lawful government of that island." The House refused to concur in this section by a vote of 179 to 155, and struck out the part recognizing the Re public of Cuba, and also the two words "arc and." The resolution going buck to the Senate, Chairman Davis of the Foreign Relations Committee moved to concur in the House umendment. This motion was defeated by a vote of id to 32. The resolution then went to the confer ence committee of the two Houses Contrary to the general understanding the conference committee of the House and Senate failed to agree upon the reso lution us amended in the House. The Senate yielded recognition of the Republic ol Cuba, but refused to eoncur in leaving out the words "are and," and at B.10 o'clock without n division voted to further insist on its disagreement to the House amendment. The Senate then by a voto of 39 to 40, refused to appoint another conference committee and then took a recess of one hour to await the further action of the House. The action of the Senate leaves the matter as it was afler the House amendment to the resolution. This sent the conference report back to the House for further action by that body. The House then look up the resolution and at 10 o'clock a vote was taken upon the Senate amendment The result was that the House hy a voto of 134 to 170, refused to recede from its position and concur in the action of the Senate. The House at 10.15 took a recess to wait on the further action of the Senate. Secretary Gage today notified the em ployes of the Treasury Department that those who wish, will be granted a year's leave to join tho army. The bill to au thorize the President to call for volun teers to ine maximum number of one hundred thousand men. was drafted by Chairman Hull and submitted to the President who approved of the measure.
