DISCUSSION DECLINED,

Washington, D. c.. Sept. 22.-The
state department officials refuse to dis
cuss the most important statement made
in the Associated Press cable dispatch
from Madrid, namely that the countries
o. Europe, with the exception OF Aus
tria, justify the interposition OF the Uni
ted States in favor OF a termination OF
the Cuban war. Still it is recalled that
while Mr.. Woodford was tarrying in an
apparently purpcseless n in Lon
don and Paris instead o. proceeding to
his post in Spain it leaked out that the
United States minister to the various
European courts, had been instructed to
sound the governments to which they
were accredited with a view Of learning
how intervention in favor 0. Cuba would
be regarded.
Although it was generally supposed
at the time this effort would not sue
coed, there is now good reason to ac-
cept the statement in the Madrid cables,
as fully warranted by facts. With such
a lever in the hands OF Woodford and

municated to Minister Woodford direct.

the Russian grain crop IS contained in
a report on the subject 10 the state de-
par;ment from Uni.ed States Consul
Heenan at Odessa.
He says the crops over an extensive
area have failed. The beginning o. the
trouble was the dry winter causing the
failure Of hall the wheat sJwn. W.h a

is from four to six bushels per acre for

Mr.. Heenan says that but little wheat

that there is litNe availib.e for export.

But If They Don't There is Likely to
Be Trouble. for Uncle Sam Has
Stood About as Much Foolishness
as He Intends To-What Teddy
Roosevelt Has to Say About II.

Madrid, Sept. 22.-The correspondent
here of the Associated Press learns up
on high authority that the much-dis-
cussed interview OF Saturday last be-
tween the United States minister to
Spain, General Stewart l.. Woodtord.
and the Spanish minister for foreign af-
fairs, the duke OF Te.uan. were merely
preliminary.
General Woodford reported to the
duke the gravity OF the condition of Gu
ba, and requested, in behalf OF the Tn
tied States, that Spain would find a
method of speedily ending the war and
giving justice TO the Cubans. He Offer
ed the good Office OF the United States
in effecting a settlement Of the Cuban
troubles, which practically gives Spain
an opportunity of gracefully ending the
war.
If she does no, embrace it within a
reasonable time, notice will be given that
the United States must interfere. though
General Woodford has no. said so yet.
Spain canno expect the aid OF Euro
pean powers. as the Unh:ed States am
bassadors have ascer,ained that all the
European countries except Austria rec
ognize that the interests OF the United
States justify the iatier's Interference in
Cuba. Austria. in this matter, is influ-
enced by the relationship between the
two dynasties, the queen regent OF Spain

vent!on of the United States.

WHAT TEDDY N

New York. Sept. 22.-'This country is
on the verge Of a wal with Spain"
These are words OF Assistant Secre-
tary OF the Navy Roosevelt. He used
them at a conference with some Of the
commanders OF the naval militia. whom
he had summoned to Washington to
learn of the state OF their commands
and the number OF men that can be de-
pended on to complete the complement
OF warships and the auxiliary navy.
Assistant Secretary Roosevelt caution
ed The gentlemen who had been called
ip;o the conference not to underestimate
the gravity Of the situation.
The navy department is preparing to
use every available man Of the naval
militia. The commanders OF this re-
serve, who have been called to Wash
ington during the last few days. have
had the importance Of getting their d.
visions in such shape that a sudden call
will find them in readiness, impressed
upon them.
It Is for just such a crisis as that
which now seems imminent that the ma
val reserve will be established and main
tanned. and the young men who have
been playing at being marines may be
called upon to enact their parts in real
earnest.
Among the naval militia commanders
called upon by the navy department
we're Commanders William H. Stayton
and W. Butler Duncan. These gentle

age military discipline was observed,
