aWEYLER HATES TO QUIT.
He Refuses to Give Up the Captain Gener-
aIship Now,


alship Now.
New York, Oct. 23.-A Havana special
to the Herald says: "In spite of all his
protests to the contrary General Weyler,
when 1t comes to the actual test Of re-
signing his command, exhibits decided
reluctance. He has refused to give over
authority as Captain General to his duly
appointed successor, Jimenez Castellanos,
although peremptorily ordered to do SO
by Spain's Minister of War.
The situation is critical. Senor Sagasta
cannot, it is believed, permit his Minis
try to be openly defied by Gen eral Wey-
Ter. and yet he may have to resort to ex-
treme measures to remove the Captain
General. Over and over again Captain
General Weyler has affirmed he would do
nothing to embarrass his country, but ac-
tions speak louder than words.
Castellanos arrived in the capital late
Monday night. He had been appointed by
Spain Minister of War to replace Gener-
al Weyler until General Blanco arrived in
Cuba. Castellanos was in the field when
the appointment came, but he at once
started for the palace. In some unac-
countable way man OF war sent to
fetch him was retarded.
Castellanos proceeded to the palace on
Tuesday morning, expecting to be sworn
in as Captain General But it was very
soon apparent General Weyler did not
intend that anything of the sort should
happen. He made excuses and hesitated
until Castellanos was provoked to cable
the situation to Madrid. A reply came
quickly. 1t was q peremptory order that
General Weyler should vacate and that
the newly appointed man should assume
command at once.
u Rnt =
obey. He told Castellanos that before he
would hand over the office he must have
g, written statement from his successor to
Gne effect that the four western provinces
were paoitied. Now Castellanos had been
In the field and knew the truth, and re-
fused to sign any such document.
= This happened yesterday evening. Today
General Weyler is still Captain General,
and in effect defies any one to divest
him of his authority. General Weyler's
Intimate friends assert that he will not
rel1nquish command until few hours
beforess the time he has fixed to sail for
spain. The date of his departure is now
liked for October 81. But 1t was once be-
lore liked for the goth. There is time for
much to happen before General Blanco
can arrive.
A SPANISH PROTEST.
Madrid, October ga governme Mt
note protesting against filibustering will
be handed to United States Minister
Woodford tomorrow.
According to despatch from Havana,
Lieut.. Gen. Weyler has ordered the
abandonment of the demonstrations that
were being prepared there in his favor
and against the government.
NO INTERFERENCE.
Madrid, October 23.-In the special
note to United States Minister Woodford,
the government declares that Spain has
done all in her power to end the war in
cuba and cites the many sacrifices
which have been made by the nation, the
number of troops sent to Cuba and the
REFORMS which are being carried OUT in
tne Island, which are fully described.
Inc note ends with the statement that
spain will not admit the right OF any
foreign power to interfere in any of her
affairs"
