SPAIN MUST ACT NOW.
OPINION OF THE AMERICAN CABINET,


New York, oct. "a dispatch to the
Herald from Washington says:
President Mckinley and the cabinet
thoroughly discussed the Cuban ques-
ton in all it's phases. and it is the
consensus Of opinion that the Sugasta
ministry should inaugurate reforms in
cuba, without waiting for action by
the new Cortcs, which will not assem-
bic before March. otherwise the adj
ministration will be forced to act.
The advisabllity of providing protec-
ton for the American consuls in
Havana and the necessity of obtain
ing from Senior SagastH action in
Cuba were the principal themes Of dis
cussion but other than the conclusion
that something should be done without
delay by Sagasta, there was no inn
portant development. The authorities
are of the opinion that Spain Is simply
following out her usual policy OF delay.
They look with suspicion even upon
the changes Of ministry which have
occurred. but have been somewhat re-
assured by the announcement made by
Senior Sagasta that he will answer
Minister Woodford's representations
rendering the good offices OF the
United States ia ample time for the
incorporation of his reply in the Presi-
dents message, AS required by the min
lister.
