Thla city wild with enthusiasm for war. A great demons! ratios will be mad tonight by th Conservatives, autonomists, and th military and elrll elements of ta population. It la announced, will parade th street with torchlight and go to th paJac to express to Captain General Blanco th unconditional loyalty of all classes of Spaa lards and Spanish political parties to th commander of th Spanish army under the present grave elr ccm stances. The demonstration was proposed by th Weylertst organ. El Com, aad accepted with Joy by all th other political newspapers aad party organiiattoc.

The autonomists will play a conspicuous part la th demonetra- tion. It la officially declared that, la spit of the great enthusiasm a disorder of any kind will occur. The' committees of public order and defense, organised by Gen ral Blanco, will take car. It la said, that th patriot lc feeling of th people shall not load them to any disorderly acta. Any on wh is guilty of disorderly conduct.

It la de clared, will be severely pun 1 shad. Th proclamation leaned by El Correo and signed by hundreds of representative 8 pan lards ail lag for th demonstration tars: "Spaniards: Th Urn has com demon strate one more before the world that th lovs for oar country la not dead la Spanish bosoms. We bar been known, up to this time, to be prudent, self-respecting, noble. and forbearing, in th face of th perfidious treachery of a country that doe not deaerr to be called civilised, because Its baa aad cowardly crimes are th sham of mankind. "Now tt Is Urn act.

Spain la with us. Bar majesty, th Queen, has just Issued th most glorious defiance to the treac heron republic of ta United States. Th great people, victorious at Paris. Zaragoza. arises bow as on maa.

shouting 'Ylva "Down with th Foreigner. Her tonight will call la a body at th palace of th Governor General, that will be shattered to pieces before tt will be surrendered to the foreigner." Ha rana city presents Its usual aspect. Th stores are open aad the theaters are crowded. At the theaters of Albisn aad Alhambra pa triotic plays are performed and the public enthusiastically slags national songs. Noth ing; her Indicate that ar on th vers of horrible occurrences.

Th Havana loyal ist Spaniard do not seam to realise any danger. Cuban families, however, continue to leave br hundreds. Thar not room on board th American steamer Saratago for all th persons who demand tickets. It la doubtful yet whether the Saratoga will leer at all. and yet th office of th Ward 11a steamers la overcrowded with applicants for tickets.

Hundreds who did not arrive la time ta depart will remain In Havana, to their great sorrow. The press is very bellicose. La Luc ha says th United States has thrown off the mask at last, oaly because it feels certain of conquering. The same newspaper propose that no quarter be siren, "because anything, ne matter what, we may do In our defease, la tight under the circumstances. In spite of the maalfestatlona the bishop at Harana will conduct maes tomorrow at th cathedral, praying for peace, and all th authorities wQl attend.

Th greatest Indignation prevails here In official circles against many officials of the Spanish government ha Harana who, at the last hoar, hare deserted their offices and fled to the United States. Proceedings hare been ordered against them. The Spanish steamer Maria Herrera of the Spanish company Sobrtnoe de Herrera. which waa to tear for Porto Rico today, has given her trip. As a measure of war it la announced that the forced circulation of the paper money ef th Spanish Bank of Cuba will soon be authorised.

"Viva Cuba Espaaolar Captain General Bianco has Just made public th following address: "With no reason or legal pretext, without the slightest offense, after receiving nothing hut manifestations of frieadshlp and consideration from us, the United States Is beginning a war against us at th very moment when tranquillity was beginning to come into being again throughout th country, when production waa beginning revive, commerce to Increase, and peace within a short space to take form, as fast as th new institutions granted by the mother country with the sin- cerest loyalty, aad put Into force at the beginning of thin year, developed freely with th assistance of all rinses aad of all parties. "A proceeding like thla. which la without a parallel In history, make clearly manifest th political artifice of that republic for whoa emancipation we gar our aid In a fatal hour, bringing distinctly to light th hostile feelinga that It has always cherished against the sovereignty of Spain In Cuba, against which It haa been conspiring for nearly a centary. aad ha carried Its hypocritical falseness to th point of now demanding aa Immediate pea la a war wholly provoked aad kept wp by her.
