Rfaolotlon Formally Declaring; War italnat hpaln Panne the llonne Wilhont IMnnentlnc Yote. WAiiuaiiTua, April 25. Tb President to day Mnt to Congreaa the following bill recommending the paasae of a declaration of war against Hpaln: To the rWnaieand Houae of Representative ot the United Htate of America: 1 tranimlt to Coiigroai for It conaiilera lion and appropriate action copiei of corre spondence recently had with the repreaeiit- atlve of Hpaln In the UnlUd Btates, with the United Statea Mlnlater at Madrid, and through the latter wltb ths government of Hpaln, allowing the action taken under Joint reaolulion, approved April 20, 1809, for ! cognition of the independence of the people of Cuba, demanding that the government of Spain relinijuieh it authority and gov rnnientin the inland of Cuba and withdraw It land and naval forcea from Cuba and Cuban water, and directing the 1'realdent of the United Htatea to uae the land and naval force of the United State to carry these resolution into effect. Upon communicating to the tipanlsh mln later in Washington the demand which it became the duty of the executive to address to the government ol Hpaln In obedience lo aid resolution, said Minister asked for his passport and withdrew. Ths United Stales Minister t Madrid was in turn notified by the Bpanish representative that the United State had terminated diplomatic relation between the two countries, and all official communication between their respective representatives ceased therewith. I recommend to your special attention the note directed to the United Stale ruin Isterat Madrid by the Spanish Minister of Foreign A Hairs on the 21st Inst, whereby the foregoing notification was communi cated. It will be pvrwived that the Spanish government, having coguixance of the reso lution, and in view of the things which the President i hereby required and authoriied to do, responds by treating the representa tive demands of tbi government as meas ures of hostility, following with that in stant and complete severance of relations by It action. The position of Spain being thus made known and the demand of the United Btatet being denied wltb a complete rupture in the intercourse with Spain, I have been constrained in ibe exercise of the power and authority conferred upon me by the joint resolution aforesaid to proclaim under date of April 22, lc$8, a blockade of certain port on the north coast of Cuba, lying be tween Cardenas and Babai Honda and the port of Clenfuegoi on tbe south coast of Cuba, and further, in the exercise of my constitutional lowers and using the power confened on me by act of Congress, ap proved April 22, 1808, to issue my proclama tion dated April 23, 1S93, calling for volun teers In order to carry Into ellect said reso lution of April 20, 1SD8. Copies or this proclamation are hereunto appended. In view of the measure so taken and with the view to the adoption of such war meas ure a may be necessary to enable me to carry out tbe expressed will of the Congress of the United States in the premises, I now recommend to your honorable body the adoption ol a joint resolution declaring that a state of war exists between the United State of America and the kingdom ol Spain, and I urge speedy action thereon, to tbe end that a definition of the International statu of the United States as a belligerent power may be made known aud the asser tion ot all it duties in the conduct of the publlo war may be assured. William McKihliy. Executive Mansion, Washington, Apiil 23. Not a Dlaaentlug Vote. Wasiiinuton, April 25. The House today passed the bill declaring the existence of a tale of war between the United States and the kingdom of Spain in a manner which cannot fail to impress the world. The repre sentatives of 70,000,000 people voted for it without a word of debate, without a dis senting vote and without a roll-call, but with a solemn appreciation of tbe gravity of their momentous action. Joint Resolution. The joint resolution or bill was as follows: "Be it enacted by the Senate and the House of Representatives of the United States, in Congress assembled. "First, That war he and the same Is hereby declered to exist, and that war has existed since the 21st of April, 1893. includ ing Sunday, between the United States of America and the Kingdom of Spain. "Second, That tbe president of the United States Is hereby directed and em powered to use the entire land and naval forces of tbe United States, and to call into actual service the United States militia of the several State to such extent as may be necessary to carry this act into ellect." Ultlmation. Following is the text of President' ulti matum to Spain, as given out this morning: "April 20, 1808.-Woodford, Minister of the United States, Madrid: You have been furnished with the text of the Joint resolu tion voted by the Congress of the United States on the 19tb Inst., and approved today, in relation to the pacification of the island of Cuba. In obedience to that act, the Presi dent directs you to immediately communi cate to the government of Spain said resolu tion, with a formal demand upon the gov ernment of Spain to at onoe relinquish its authority and government in the island of Cuba and withdraw It land and naval force from Cuba and Cuban water. In taking this tep, the United blate hereby disclaim any disposition or Intention to ex ercise sovereignty, jurisdiction or control over tlx Island, except for the pacification thereof, and assert It determination when that I accomplished to leave the govern ment aud control of tbe island to It people under sucb free and independent govern ment a tbey may establish. "If by the hour of noon on Saturday next, ths 23d day of April, instant, there be not communicated to this government by the government of Spain full nd satisfac tory response to this demand and resolution, whereby tbe ends of peace in Cuba shall be assured, the President will proceed without further notice to use the power and author ity enjoyed and conferred upon him by said Joint resolution lo sucb extent as may be necessary to carry tbe tame into effect. "Shekmav." Proclamation. Tbe following is the Proclamation Isaued April 21, announcing tbe blockade of Cuban ports: "Whera. In carrying into ellect the Resolution, the President of the United States deem it necessary to set on foot and maintain a blockade of tbe nortb coast of Cuba, including all port of said coast be tween Cardenas and Babia Honda, and tbe port of Cieiifuegus, on the south coast of Cuba; now, therefore, I, William McKinley President of the United State, in order to enforce said Resolution, do hereby declare and proclaim that the United 8tates of America ba instituted and will maintain a blockade of the north coast of Cuba, includ ing port on aid coast between Cardenas and Bahia Honda, and tbe port of Cien fuegos, on tbe south coast of Cuba, afore said, in pursuance of the law of the United Slates and tbe laws of nations applicable to such canes.

Any neutral vessel approaching said iiorts and attempt Inn to leave tbe same without notice or knowledge of the establishing of sucb block ade will be duly warned by tbe commander ot tbe blockading forces, wbo will Indorse on ber register the fact and tbe date of such warning, and where such indorsment was made, and it the same vessel shall again at tempt to enter any blockaded post, she will be captured and tent to the nearest con venient port for tucb proceedings against her and ber cargo a prize as may be deemed advisable. Neutral vessel lying in and of tbe said porta at the time of the establishment of such blockade will be allowed 30 days to issue therefrom. .

A great student demonstration in regard to the war took place on Prinoton campus last nighu One thousand students paraded through tbe town and about tbe campus, finally drawing up in front of ex-President Cleve land's house, and with ringing cheers in duced him to come out. The enthusiasm was unbounded, and Mr. Cleveland made a speech, every sentence of which was loudly cheered. He said in part: "I suppose this demonstration is an evi. deuce of your patriotism In this critical hour ot our Nation' history. We must stand by the Country when she is right, and I am not so sure that we should not stand by ber when sbe Is wrong. Let us bope in this crisis which is upon us our arms may sus tain their prowess and that it may be demonstrated in after years that we were right. Stern duties face the American people today, and let us bope that these duties may be performed in tbe same high way that our duties were performed in the preliminary stages of the trouble, and in the days to come let us prepare ourselves for the proper performance on all occasions of these duties. But so far as in us tie, let u be conservative and righteous to the end." Loud hurrahs were given for the ex-president before the students took up their march again. Important Kventa.
