Think War Impossible.

These four cabinet officers. with Secretary
Long. who represents section of the coun-
try strongly opposed to war. have during
the last month steadfastly maintained that
the policy of the administration to Cuba
does not even involve the possibility of an
armed controversy with Spain. They have
declared that nothing is sought at this time
but to afford opportunities for the revival
of business and the res oraticn of confidence
and prosperity. These. in their opinion,
would all be hazarded by any action which
could be construed as inviting crisis.
So impressed have the members of the
cabinet been with the temperate character
of the instructions given Minister Woodford
that it is practically impossible to convince
higher officia! circles here that the delivery
to the Spanish government of Minister
Woodford's message can either now or in
the immediate future produce serious in
ternational complications or result in an
ultimatum.
Many of these are tonight rudely awak-
ened to the fact that the stand already
taken must eventually leave nothing but
one of two alternatives complete and
not very glorious recession of the step now
made. or a definite movement for the paci-
tication of Cuba.

Malicious Account of a
WOman'S Death.
Mrs. Jane Williams Had
Money and Food.
Autopsy Will Be Performed at Re-
quest of Relatives.

A sensational report was given publicity
this morning 1t was to the effect that
Mrs. Jane Williams, aged "a years had
died OF starvation at the Homeopathic
Hospital yesterday.
This was false statement according to
several persons well acquainted with the
details OF the case. The woman was
taken to the hospital as an emergency
patient and it was seen at once that she
was seriously sick.
Acting under instructions from the
dead woman's sister there will be on
autopsy Mt the hospital today TO decide
tho cause OF death.
The deceased had been in poor health
for considerable length OF time and che
was also in straitened circumstances,
although never reduced TO the point of
want.
She occupied the third floor tenement at
no Westminster street and ner income
was derived from letting rooms. Miss
Day. a stenogr9pher with ar office on
Weybosset street, saw her sunday and
she knows that idrs. Williams had enough
food in the house on that day, and she
also knows that she partook OF three
hearty meals.
She was afflicted with lung trouble ana
she had spells of illness lasting sometimes
for three or four days. IL Is probable that
Monday night Mrs. Williams might have
been overcome by one OF these spells and
being alone she was unable TO help her.
self.
On Wednesday Miss Day visited Mrs
Williams and found her in helpless con-
ditioD. She notified DIR. Emily Thurber
who took her to the hospital. Mrs. Viii.
liams had 81 in money when she was
taken to the hospital and after paying s.
for her transportation to the hospital and
81 for other expenses she had 81 left.
Those familiar with the case said there
was no need of being hungry for the
woman always had the means to purchase
the necessities of life.
Mrs. Williams remained in weak con-
dition until o'clock yesterday after
noon when she died. Her relatives
will take charge Of the remains.
