and government in Cuba and withdraw
it's land and naval forces from Cuba

early this Thursday morning, i'm
mediately after the receipt of your
open telegram, and before I had com
municated the ultimatum to Spain,
the Spanish Minister of Foreign Affairs
notified me that diplomatic relations
between the two countries was broken
and that all official communications

Washington, April 2L.-Postmaste1
General Gary handed his resignation
to President Mckinley this morning
and the President soon afterwards sent
in the nomination Of Charles Emory
Smith, the editor of the Philadelphia
Press, to be Postmaster General.
According to a member Of the cabi.
net the resignation Of General Gary il
due solely to the fact that the hard
work Of the Office, together with che
excitement caused by the Cuban con
troversy and consequent war prepare.
tons, have affected his health and
aggravated a chronic heart trouble.
It has been stated that the position
of the cabinet On the war question did
not accord with the views held by Mr..
Gary and for that reason he resigned,
but this is not. credited as the real
reason.
Mr.. Smith has been in Washington
frequently of late and has advised with
the President on the Cuban and other
questions.
The Senate confirmed the nomina-
ton Of Mr.. Smith to be Postmaster
General this afternoon.

lican members of the Committee on
Ways and Means spent several hours
today in further preparation of the bill

be reported to the House early in the
coming week, by which time it is as
sumed that some overt act Of war will
have been committed by n or the
other party.
The proposition to levy duty on tea

con1ne the operations Of the bill, at
least for the present, to power 10 levy
