Spanish Minister'S Gabble.

New YORK, April 25.-Senor Du-

today Cd board the revenue cutter
which brought him up from quar-
antiEe.
Senior Delome speaks of the lack
of interest in the Cuban insur-
rection which he observed during
his stay in Havana, which place he
visited en- route hither, and Of the
exaggerated reports sent out from
the island concerning tina progress
Of the instruction, and he en-
pressed his convictions of the
speedy extinction Of the revolt. at
is needless for me to repeat the
statements which have been made
so often Of the greatly exaggerated
stories sent out by the newspaper
correspondents. l must say the re-
ports Of the Associated Press are the
most truthful of the statements
cabled from Cuba. Newspaper cor
respondents have made me say and
do all manner Of things from the
time OF my arrival at Cuba, of
which am not aware Of saying or
doing"
"My mission to America is to
talk politics to the authorities at
Washington. AS to the matter Of
firing on the steamer Alliance,
have nothing to say, as the mat
ter seems to be already SATISFACTORY
ly settled. must say, however, l
think it would have been wise for
the captain of the Alliance to have
stopped when requested, and then
sought for indemnity afterward.
"The government proposes to
send to Cuba $4,000 men in all be-
fore the first day Of May. With
this force, there can be no doubt
as to the fate of the Instruction"

WHEY TOLD ON HIM.
The Great Express Robbery Laid
Bare

KANSAS CITY, April PA depo-
sition made by Mrs. Ketchum, wife
Of Charles A. Ketchum, who has
been under suspicion since 1898 of
robbing the Adams Express COM
pany Of $35, 1000 in transit from Gin
cinnati to New Orleans, duplicates
a Louisville photographer named
Erred. Mrs. Ketchum says
the robbery of the express
company was a scheme
made up between her husband
and Elrod. Ketchum substituted
slips Of paper for the money which
was concealed for a time being in
Elrod's gallery. Then the money
was taken by Ketchum and wife to
st. Paul, where it was exchanged
for large bills. Later it was con-
cealed in their KausasCity home by
means Of false panel. AS stated
in these dispatches last night, Mrs.
Ketchum had a narrow escape
from death at the hands of her
husband because she was testifying
against him in the suit brought by
the Wells Fargo Express company
against the Adams to recover the
amount stolen by Ketchum
Ketchum was arrested charged
with robbery at the time it oc.
Cured, but evidence against him
was insufficient and he was dis
charged. The deposition of Mrs
Ketchum may lead to the recovery
Of the money. Ketchum was
locked up after the assault and
will have a hearing this afternoon
