WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.-When the Cabinet met
at IL O'Clock to-day. most Of the members
pected that interesting news about the answer
Spain has prepared to the note Of Minister Wood
ford would be presented to them for considera-
tion. The press dispatches from Madrid had
caused Secretary Sherman to expect message
from Gen. Woodford and perhaps the text Of tho
Spanish communication. But Mr.. Sherman was
obliged to go to the meeting without any ad.
ditional knowledge and to report to the Presi
dent and his colleagues that the expected had
not happened. There was reason to believe.
however. that a despatch from Gen. Woodford
might come at any moment. and the Cabinet,
after transacting the business before it, sat for
some time lone er awaiting tho arrival OF State
Department messenger with cablegram.
When Secretary Sherman reported that Gen.
Woodford had sent nothing. one of the Cabinet
officers inquired what would be the next step in
the diplomatic relations between Spain and the
United States II the answer Of the Sagasta Min
istry should be on the lines OF the newspaper re-
ports. which said that the friendly offer OF me-
diation made by the United States had been re-
jected. This was anticipating things a little too
much for the President. and the question was
not discussed. 1t suggested to another men,
a statement hat the note Of the Spanish Ministry
accepted the friendly offices of the Cnited States
search for the newspaper was made, but q
copy could not be found. and Cuban affairs were
dropped. A discussion OF the situation was i'm
minent at one time during. the meeting. but
consideration OF other matters, Most OF the SOS
sion was consumed in listening to Secretary
Cages, explanation of the principal topics
treated In his annual report.
