on the part of the minister. When
Judge Day learned direct from the min
lister that the letter was genuine, the
cablegram to Gen. WoodfOrd was sent.
These instructions will go before the
Madrid authorities along with the min
ister's resignation.
When inquiries were made at the
Spanish legation today as TO how the
letter reached the hands of the Cuban
junta, it was said that the statements
made by the iunta as to Cana!eJaS re-
ceiving the letter were absolutely false.
Private inquiries, it was stated, had
been made through a New York gen
tleman, which had disclosed that Ca
nalejas never saw the letter. This in
quiry was sent direct to Canalejas,
now at Madrid, and he was asked if he
had ever received a letter of the char
acter described. To this Senor Canale-
jas answered that he never received
the letter, and knew nothing Of it's con-
tents; that, if he had received it, he
would have made an answer to the let
ter. There has never been an acknOwl-
edgment or an answer, from Canalejas.
After this statement from Canalejas,
the Spanish authorities regard it as
plain that the letter was stolen in tran
sit, and that the reports Of Canalejas
receiving it and reading it to DR.. Con-
gosto are ia brications intended to cover
up the plan by which the letter was
abstra cted.
No Official Notice.
Up to the close of office hours, the
state department had not heard from
Mr.. Woodford, it is said. However
there was no disposition to question
the correctness Of the report of the
Spanish cabinets action upon his res
ignation, and the opinion is entertained
that the matter is now practically set
tied.
1t is believed that when Mr.. Wood
ford is heard from it will be in the
shape of a message saying that the
Spanish government expresses regret at
the incident; that the resignation Of
Dupuy de Lone makes it necessary
to go further in the direction of the
request of the president for his recall.
and that the first secretary of the le-
cation will conduct it's business in
Washington until another minister is
named.
Under the peculiar circumstances ex-
fsting, the ceremonies attending the
departure Of the Spanish minister are
attended with much doubt. 1t is usual
when foreign representative leaves
the country for him to be received in
formal audience at the White house
when an exchange of well wishes takes
place between him and the president
1t is hardly expected that this formal
ity will be observed in the present case

There are a number Of men in pei

them to keep in is to create as much
friction as possible, bring about a
state of excitement and then with
hip, hip, hurah methods, tide into

the people, it is cfice for them and
nothing moro: bnt if we mistake net
the people, they are tired CT such
mtn and their deceptive methods,
an in the future they propose to do
their own thinking and their own
leading. The politicians may gather
together in htt@l rooms, restaurants,

their hearts content; they will not
be able to cram nonsense into the
heads Of the people. The great Oh

The politicians feeling that they

siDned against them and therefore
must be crushed ont of existence to

However, it is our opinion that some
