What He Said to the Queen Regent Caused

Spain Announces the Policy lie Will
Pursue Toward Cuba and the United
states-Weyler To lie Recalled.
Washington, Oct. 5.-Three long COM
munications from Minister Woodford
relative to recent Spanish developments
are on file in the state department They
were late In arriving, the delay being
caused to translate them into cipher
at Madrid, and to retranslate them at
this end. All three are cablegrams The
exact contents Of Minister Woodford' $
dispatches are known only TO a few
members of the cabinet. The general
substance, however, has been communi-
Gated indirectly to certain members of
the foreign legations and has become
current in diplomatic circles.
Resignation of the Cabinet.
There appears to be no longer any
room to doubt that the resignation Of
the Spanish cabinet was brought about,
in large part at least, by Mr.. Wood
ford's communication relative to the
continued war IN Cuba. The dissolu-
ton Of the conservative administration
was in a way a diplomatic move BY
this means the Spanish government was
enabled to recede gracefully from a po-
sltion which it had become dangerous
to longer occupy. A continuation Of the
conservative regime, with its stubborn
policy Of Cuban oppression. meant a Sc
we're strain of the diplomatic relations
between Spain and the United States.
1t was tending rapidly toward a sur
render Of the island or war with this
country.
Recall of General Vcyler.
Now there will undoubtedly be a
change of policy--with Premier Sagasta
in control, and the complete organiza-
tion of Liberal ministry, and the off,
cials of the state department declare it
will be only a matter of a short time
when Minister Dupuy de LONE will be
recalled and a new representative sent
to Washington. Also, that the much
reported and contradcted event. the re-
call Of Captain General Weyler, will be-
come a reality The final settlement of
the Clban war will depend on the ac-
ceptancc or rejection Of autonomy and
the large measure Of home rule which
will be offered

HELD FOR A HEARING.
Cassidy Makes Another Confession
Regarding Missing Notes.

James Cassidy, the young man who was
arrested last evening in South Washing
ton on the charge of attempting to pass
raised notes, was taken before Chief Hazen
of the secret service this morning.
The young prisoner made complete con-
fession to Chief Hazen, going more into de-
tail than he had in his confession to the
police. According to his statement, he is a
resident of Altoona, Pa, and is twenty-five
years of age. He has no regular trade or
profession He claims to be only a tool or
apprentice in the hands of an older and
more experienced " orker, whom he says he
met in Richmond about a week ago.
This part of Cassidy's story is borne out
by advices received by Mr.. Hazen from
Richmond to the effect that a man was ar
rested there several days ago on a similar
charge and was locked up as suspicious
character. With this man was a younger
one, who eluded the vigilance of the po-
lice and succeeded in getting out of town.
According to Csssidy's story to the chief
Of the secret service, he met this man in
Richmond last Sunday, and has only been
working at his new trade since last Mon
day. He had a complete set of tools, but
his work was of a bungling sort and would
not stand anything Hike a close inspection.
He had the proper rubber stamp, and
would use sGrt of white ink to mark out
the figure '2' after which the higher
numerals would be inserted. He confined
his attention to the new issue Of s. notes.
The arrest Is regarded as an important
one, though the man has not succeeded In
pc ssing many of the altered notes. Later
Cassidy was taken before Mr.. Commits
sioner Mills and committed for a further
hearing on the charge Of raising United
States notes.
