Gladstone Realizes He Is Nearing the
Final Hour on Earth.

Copyright 1885, by the Associated Press)
LONDON, March 26.-Next to the probabil-
tiles Of wars, the public is most keenly in
terested in the condition of Mr. Gladstone,
though not permitted to know how Ill he
is. Perhaps 1t should be said he is not so
much Ill as that his powers are falling and
that he is apparently sinking under the
weight os years and vital exhaustion. The
best informed people admit that his ailment
is impossible of cure, and that his physicians
only koDe to alleviate the pain he Is suf-
ferins. The Lancet says on the subject Of
the surgical advice called in: This can
scarcely be interpreted otherwise than that
there is serious cause for the symptoms from
which he Is suffering for nine months. Ow-
ing to his great age, the gravity OF any
surgical ailment is apparent and the ex-
haustion, in consequence Is prolonged. The
severe neuralgia is in itself an unfavorable
feature. His vitality. however. is wonder
full, and his general health is good"
An examination OF the patient with the
use OF the Roentgen rays disclosed infamed
cartilage: but there was no sign Of cancer.
Although inquiries for press paragraphs are
strictly kept from Mr.. Gladstone. it is said
he has bid farewell to several old friends and
knows his end Is approaching.
Referring to his illness, Mr.. Gladstone said
| to friend: "a final lesson-a final trial."
The old statesman has been sensibly hap
pier at Hawarden than at the Riviera or
Bournemouth. A painful incident Of Mr..
| Gladstone's illness has been his lombard

WASHINGTON. March 26.-The intense
anxiety which marked yesterdays deyelop-
ments in the Spanish situation was noticeably
relieved today, as the worst, for the present
at least, had become known In the publication
OF the material points of the court of in
quiry's report and little remained but to
await calmly the submssicu Of the full repor.
and the presidents message to congress early
next week.
Suoh cable communications as may have
passed between Washington and Madrid in re .
gard to the report were closely guarded by
officials. 1t was known. however that Ma-
lister Woodford had been cabled to notify the
Spanish government as to the results found
by the American cougt, particularly that the
explosion was external, and that the respon-
sibility for the external explosion had not
been definitely fixed.
This cablegram, 1t cen now be said was sent
from Washington Thursday night. The fact
that It was dispatohed' before the arrival OF
| Commander Mark bearing the full text OF the
report and the evidence. appears on its face
to involve contradiction. 1t can be stated
only that the cablegram was seut to Minister
Wooodford directing him this notification to
the Spanish government on Thursday night.
1t Is believed that the dispatch went nc
further than directing the results to be made
known to the Spanish government. with q
| view Of leaving the responsibility with Spain
| of making such response as seems appropriate
| on such an occasion.
Up to tonight no action on the part OF the
Spanish government had been ofacially COM

WASHINGTON, March 26.-President Nc
Kinley's program is to send the report OF the
Maine court OF inquiry to congress on Monday
without recommendation, and without expla'
nation on his part further than to say that
he las acquainted Spain with the findings OF
the court. To follow this Tuesday or Wednes-
day with a message dealing with the condition
of the noncombatants in Cuba, and asking for
an appropriation OF s5OO,O00 for their i'm
mediate relief; to present anew this condition
to Spain, asking that countcy to make pro-
vision for it's own helpless people, and come
to some ccnclusion with the insurgents and
put an end to the war; this failing, to forcibly
intervene on Humanitarian grounds.
TIE president indicated to his callers today
an abiding faith that peace still may be pre-
served, and determination on his part to ac-
complish that end II it may be done with
honor to our own country and without dis
regarding the demands Of humanity.
He frankly averred today his desire to pre-
ven. a conflict, while at the same time indi-
eating firm purpose to secure relief for the
starving reconcentrados. Indeed, the latteC
purpose appeared to be the topic uppermost
in the presidents mind.
