WOODFoRD is SLOW.
The American Minister at Spain Also
Lacks Firmness

Washington, Feb. I2-The Spanish
situation is most unsatisfactory to the
state department. The close of the De
Lone incident has not yet been reached.
The government is dissatisfied with the
mildness of the tone of Woodford's note
to SPAN in reference to the incident and
believe that had he been firmer De Lome's
recall would have resulted.
The state department has set on foot
a serious investigation in reference to the
interval which elapsed between the time
that Minister Woodford should have re-
ceived the government directions for the
demand in the DeLome incident and his
presentation of the matter. The govern
ment wants 10 know if the delay was due
to the Spanish government or to Wood
ford. In either case trouble will follow.
Spain has been given to understand that
the United States is in no hurry concern
ing reparation, but has notified them that
the longer the interval the greater will
be the demand for an apology.

WALL STREET EXCURSION.
ALarge Crowd From Denver and BouIde
Make the Initial Trip.

Adarge Crowd From Denver and boulder
Y Make the Initial Trip.
The initial trip to Wall Street today,
over the Colorado and Northwestern was
great success and reflected much credit
upon the Boulder County Mining and
promoting company, under whose man
agement it was conducted. The Denver
visitors, including Governor Adams,
were met at Louisville junction by Mayor
Ricketts, and committee comprising
Messrs. Allison, Ives, Wilson, Morrison
and Reed and under their escort con.
tinued to Boulder where they were met
by the Citizens band and citizens. Here
connections were made with a special
on the Northwestern, which the guests
from Denver and Boulder boarded. The
train left Boulder at Io:3o.
The Boulder Citizens band discoursed
its best strains as the train wended its
way through the canons to the busy
hamlet of Wall Street, ten miles away.
On arrival. the party visited the COM
pany's big tunnel, and mounted to the
crest of the hill, where, from the Doss
shaft fine view OF Boulder valley is
given.
At least one hundred and fifty guests
sat down to sumptuous dinner in the
company's large hall, Governor Adams
and Mayor Ricketts, seated at the head
of one of the huge tables. The ire
pressible Mr. Amos oficiated as toast
master, and more or less witty speeches
were made by Governor Adams, ex-Gov-
ernor Prince, OF New Mexico, L. c.
Paddock, General Irving Hale,
w. N. Byers and O. H. Wangelin.
The day was one altogether delig ghtful,
the train was finely handled, the road bed
was admired by all and the occasion was
pronounced most auspicious event in
the history of Boulder county.

"Uncle Tom"

1t reflects like a prism the inner
most phases of the human emotion.
1t is more than play. 1t is moral
classic. 1t argues for two of the
greatest themes that can engage the

tally of the soul. Notwithstanding
its frequent production, it is seldom
that one sees the play as it is now
presented by Ed F. Davis colossal

T0SEE REAL SERVICE,
The News of the Rodman Rifles
Going to Cuba Re.
ceived.
Is SOMEWHAT UNSETTLED YET.

May BE That the Company VIII Go to the
National Capital. But Current Opinion n
Springfield Is That the sixth Regiment
VIII BE Part OF the Invading Arm,
Other Notes.
The news appearing in last night :
ARGUS of the probabilities of the 9th
regiment of the Illinois militiamen.
which includes Company A of this
city. and Company F of Moline. being
included in the army of invasion of
Cuba. aroused naturally great inter-
est in Rock Island and intensified the
anxiety existing here among the
relatives and friends of the BOYS
who. for their own part. will be dis
appointed if they do not see all of the
real service there is in war. Reports
from Springfield today. are more
conflicting as to what orders NAV he
given the 9th.
The men of the 9th and LIST regi-
mcnts. two-thirds of the latter and
all Of the former command being
passed by the surgeons. and muster
Ell into the volunteer service. are in
quandary rs to where they are go
ing. Most of the men and officers
believe their destination is Mobile.
Others think it is Washington, as was
originally intended. Gen. Reece and
Gen. Barley. the two officers who
ought to know if anybody does.
frankly admit that no orders for NOV
ing these regiments have been re-
ceived. and they do not know what
their destination will be.
May Go to Washington.
1t seems certain. however, that the
regiment is To move now in
short order outside Of the state, and
that 1t will either be sent to Mobile.
preparatory to embarkation for Cuba.
or will he assigned to duty at the ma
tional capital. In either field of SER
vice the boys from Rock Island and
Moline may be relied upon to prove
themselves soldiers in every sense Of
the word-creditable to the cities
from which they have gone. and to
the state of Illinois and to the nation.
A telegram received by +. ID. Swec-
ney this afternoon from Adjt. Gen.
Reece, stated that the 9th regiment
would not leave before next week.
Mr.. Sweeney. j. j. Ingram and Cir
cult Clerk Gamble. with their wives.
will make a visit to Camp Tanner to-
morrow.
