PRESIDENT M'KINLEYS
CUBAN POLICY.
SPAlN'S REPLY ALL RIGHT.
The Presidents Forthcoming Message
Wiii Say That There Is Nothing to
Justify Interference by the United
States s-GenerRI Blanco Has
Inaugurated Radical RE-
forms in Cuba.

WASHINGTON, Nov. lit is stated
on good authority that Premier Sa-
gasta's reply to Minister Woodford's
note, the full text of which was read
at yesterdays cabinet meeting, is en-
lnently satisfactory to this govern
ment In il the Spanish ministry
pledges itself TO correct tho abuses OF
power in Cuba which were the subject
of 50 much complaint during the Wey-
Ter administration and gives assurance
Of its friendly feeling toward the
American people 1t accepts our good
Offices in its efforts to restore peace in
Cuba, and in a perfectly respectful
and friendly spirit asks this
government, so far as possible, to re-
strain the insurgent sympathizers in
the United States from giving materi-
al aid to the enemies of Spain in Cuba.
The reply intimates that but for the
assistance that has been given them
by hllibusters from the United States,
peace would have been restored long
ago
The reply, IL is stated. does not con
tain "A sentence that could give Of
Tense or be construed into an express
sion of an unfriendly purpose or feel
ing against the government Of the
United States On the contrary, the
note is stated to be distinctly concilia-
tory in tone, although insisting upon
the right and duty of Spain TO put
down an armed insurrection within it's
own territory
1t is evident that the reply has
made favorable impression upon
President Mckinley and the members
.of the cabinet, and it is not unlikely
that one Of the features of his forth
coming message to congress will be a
discussion Of the Cuban situation from
which it will appear that there is
nothing in the situation to Justify
present Interference on the part of the
United States

declaration through Senior DeLome,
the Spanish minister at Washington:
$50 far from seeking a preteXt TO

Spain would regard it as a great mis-
fortune to be given the occasion for
such an unhappy resolution. Ami
mated as she is by the most amicable

Spain hopes OF America that the latter
will do its utmost to fortify the senti-

the same time respecting the rights Of
