7,tates with rl/4gard to the cession of Cuba, but

laa acted upon. It appears that, according to the
despatch from General Sickles, read in the
abject, Spain requests the United States not to
111:e28 the negotiations to an ultimatum at present.

te atisfactory both to Cuba and the United States,

lens made, but still holds them, and merely asks
