Still the general expectation is that Day will bo tho nmn. There is no longer any doubt that Secretary Sherman's brain power Is practically gone; the stories they tell about the old gentleman's talk arc pos itively pitiable. PARASOLS! WASHINGTON NOTES. Washington, April M, 1898. There has been no occasion for any body to find fault witli the rapidity with which impoitaut 1 vents have fol lowed each other during the past week. The signing by tlie president of tlm armed intervention resolution; the ul timatum to Spain; tlie breaking up of diplomatic relations with us by Spain; the proclamation declaring to tlie na tions of tlm world the intention of the United States to blockade Havana and Cuban ports; the actual establishing of that blockade-, the capture of Spanish merchant vessels bj ships of the block ading iipiadron; the proclamation call ing lor 125,000 men to serve two years, unless sooner discharged. That is tlie week's record of the most important ucts of the executive branch of the government. Tim lighting is not liable to be as speedy in arriving as the events which immediately precede the opening of the war. So far as kiionn tlie bulk of tlm Spanish navy is oil the otlar. side of the Atlantic, witli the intention of remaining there and devoting its at tention to hunting for stray American merchant vessels which can bo taken without lighting. There are numerous reports about tli. ir coming over here to light, but 011 naval o Ulcers do not believe them, although they would be more than g'ad 0 have them do so. Our navy will not attack the forts of the Cuban ports in its blockading, un less it is lir.sl attacked by the forts; at least, not for a while. Tlie present ob ject is tu make the blockade thorough ly effective and to capture and destroy all the Spani-h ships that can be found. In addition to tliit.u small force will probably lie landed at some port that is accessible to the ill' urgent army in order that it inty be furnished t'.ie supplies and amr.iuiii'ioii it needs ti enable it to assume the aggressive tow uid.s the Sp niish army. Food will ul-o be lauded fur tree distribution to the needy. While tin.- is going on in Cuba and Cuban waters tue volunteer army will be go. ten together in camps of instruction ami prepared at tlie cat licst moment to proceed to Cuba ami drive the Spanish army off tlm island. This will take time. So it is just as well not to expect much news of light ing, unless thu Spanish forts seek an engagement with tho blockading quadron, or our Asiatic squadron tiuds tlm Spanish squadrnn;it is hunt ing for, for soveral weeks to come. Tim ways and means committee of tho house, upon which devolved tlm duty of preparing the bill to provide money to pay thu oxponses of the war, has performed that duty and reported tlm bill to tlm house. Tlm bill by tlm imposition of now internal revenue taxes and an increase of tlm taxes on beer and manufactured tobacco, pro. viiles for an estimated increaso of $100- 000,000 in this country's revenues. It also provides for tlm issue of f'500,000,. 000 in H per cent coin bonds, to run from ten to twenty years, at tho op tion of the government, and author izes ilit) issue of $100,000,000 in three per cunt certillcatcs of indebtedness b the tieasury. Tho expectation is that the bill will l)u passed this week, us the disposition of congress is to push cvi-ij thing conuicted with the con diKliif the war through without pro louued discussion, recognizing tlm 11101 al effect upon the world of speedy and united action by congress upon war ineusuros. Congress has uot been idle during the week. It ban passed thu bill aa- FORWARD. Tesr.-,'Amerlra." I.finit of tlie peaceful free. Nntlon of Industry, I'ntleiit mill stroiiK.
