DE LONE APPROVES THE MESSAGE
spain willing for the Governme mt "a
Aid Americans.

WASHINGTON. May ia.-In an author
lied interview the Spanish minister. Du-
puy de LONE, says:
Il am going at once TO call on the presi-
dent and express my gratitude for his
splendid action and kindly consideration
shown In the wording OF his message. Not
withstanding the activity OF papers that
are hostile and unjust, our cause has again
triumpheG. We are stronger today with
President Mckinley and Secretary Sher-
man than We were with the Cleveland adj
ministraton.
Spain has no objection whatever TO the
United States helping her own citizens
now resident in Cuba and alleged to be in
distress. The way that the charity Is dis
tributed IS entirely the affair OF the United
States. and not that OF Spain. This gov
eminent especially states that only Amer
leans are TO be relieved. Therefore no au-
thority is asked to feed the subjects of the
king of Spain. II Americans have suf-
fered through the exigencies of war. IL is
their misfortune to be In Cuba at this par
ticular time Spain does not care If the
United States maintains her citizens in
luxury. so long rs she distributes her
bounty through the consular agents and
only in the towns"
