WAsHlNGToN, Nov. l3.-The news from
Cuba received yesterday was so startling
In It's character, not only from the atrocity
Of the act reported, but from the tect that
the Cuban authorities were ordered BY the
Madrid Government TO stay iurthef exc.
cutions that It created at tirst IN the OH
cial circles doubts as to It's truth, but
these have now been removed, and while
the credit oi good faith is given to the
Madrid Government, the emphatic con.
demnation OF the Cuban authorities for
thier swift vengeance and disregard oi
the commands Of the Home Goyernment
Is everywhere expressed. The Secretary
OF State yesterday on receipt oi dispatch
announcing the Wholesale execution at
Santiago De Cuba, telegrephed 70 Consul
General Hall at Havana 10 instruct the
Vice Consul Of that port to inquire into
the matter and to enter an earnest protest
against the haste Fof the trial, in the lace
ofthe orders Of the; Spanish Government
Tor q delay until full examination could
be made into all the facts attending the
capture Of the Virginins. i
Hall replied that the vice Consul mad al
ready: protestedtin me, suongest terms
against the proceedlngs,o put tnst MS action
was obstructed by the spanish oincials, all
avenues 81 communication pelng CLOSED
against him. The telegraph line between
Santiago and Havana being interrupted
he was prevented from telegraphing 10
Kingston, IN order 70 make inquiry ID re,
lationTto the Virginins. Hnen she was
brought into port, there was nothlng ieft
for him but the slow process OF III. mails,
and TINS MODE o. communication was OF
no advantage under the circumstances.
Immediately on receipt OF consul General
Halls dispatch, the secretary OF state IN
structed Minister Sickles to enter with the
Spanish Government q suong; protest
against tho proceedings atsanuago, Gnar'
acteriztpg them as an outrage on civlliza'
tion and humanity, and an insult 70 our
own Government General Sickles has
replied that he has had an interview
with the Minister goI, torelgn AHalrs,
and acted in accordance with his In.
struciions, and further, that ;the span.
ish Government Yves duly impressed
with sense OF responsity, and had
promised TO act In such manner as
would show Its disapprobation OF the pro.
ceedipgs at Santiago and at the same time
It's friendship for this government.
