WASHINGTON March S.--No conhrma-
tion can be obtained in Washington OF the
report from Madrid to the effect that tho
American consul general, Ramon o. Will
liams, In Havana, Is persona non grata
and Cuban authorities have demanded his
recall. At the state department the report
is discredited. The last dispatch received
from Mr.. Williams gave no evidence Of
friction with the Cuban authorities. and
in view Of his long service and his popu-
larity in that colony the state departments
officials believe there must be some error
in tho report
Furthermore. they say that II for any
reason the Cubans desired to have Mr.. viii
liams depart from their territory they
would not be likely to ask for his recall.
This would not be necessary. The Span
ish government would terminate his dip
lomatic career in Havana at short notice
by simply withdrawing his exequatur
The only possible reason that can be MS
signed for any discord between Mr. Will
liams and the Cuban authorities is in con-
nection with Mr. Williams efforts in be-
half OF Aguirre. the American citizen
charged with participating in the Cuban
revolt. Secretary Gresham had instructed
Mr.. Williams to demand fair trial for
this subject
The latters efforts TO carry out the de-
partment's instructions may have proyok-
ed some irritation ON the part Of the Gu
bans, but Mr.. Williams Is well trained
consular officer. and the authorities here
have every reason to believe that he has
not gone beyond the usual legitimate
methods in conducting the case.
Ramon o. Williams the American con-
sui general at Havana. whose recall is said
TO have been demanded, has held his pres
ent position through several administra-
tions He is highly regarded throughout
the island He married a Cuban lady
some years ago and is well up on the con-
dition OF affairs in Cuba.
