SPAIN MUST STAND ALONE.


Spanish Statesmen.
Madrid, April Both United States
Minister WOodford and the Spanish
ministers show pointed reserve con-
cernlng the contents of the Spanish
memorandum, but it is said to be re-
markably strong restatement of the
Spanish case on all the points raised
by the United States, and especially in
regard to the paciication of Cuba and
the settlement of the Cuban question
from the Spanish point of view.
In political and diplomatic circles the
situation is deemed critical, because it
is difficult for either side to make con-
cessions likely to be acceptable to the
other, Judging by the attitudes they
have maintained in the recent negotia-
tions. The impartial says the govern
ment has received excellent impress
siOns on the favorable attitude of
European continental powers whose
friendly dispositions toward Spain
have been strengthened by the fact
that the United States and England
have lately been drawn closer by their
common interests in China.
FL Liberal says that Spain must trust
solely to her own energies. 1t is un-
derstood that this paper echoes the i'm
preston that Is dominant in diplomatic
circles and among many Spanish
statesmen. On the other hand, the
ministers and their supporters seem
still to entertain some hope that Presi-
dent Mckinley may hesitate and again
attempt to stem the war currents pre-
vailing in his parliament and country.
now that the Spanish reply leaves no
doubt that the queen and her ministers
will not surrender Cuba without O
struggle, however costly and unequal
1t may prove to be.

A PATRIOTIC MOTHER
Her Boy Went Down With the
Wreck of the Maine.
HAS ANOTHER BOY IN TIE NAVY.

| And She Is UnhesitatinGly For War IN
the Interest of the su ufrering Mothers
in Cuba who Have Seen Their Chill
dren Starve by Their Sides.
Chicago, April 2.-Side by side in the
| Chicago Tribune today appears letter
| from Mrs. Ellen N. Henrotln, of this
city. who, on behalf Of the Women's s
Clubs Of the United States, wrote to
President Mckinley urging him to take
the way that leads to peace, and O.
statement from Mrs. Shillington, moth
er Of Harry Shillington, who went
down with the Maine. Following Mrs.
IIenrotin's letter is a statement by her
In which she upholds the stand she
took in her letter, and repeating that
the general federation of womens
clubs will give to President Mckinley
"our moral support in all that he does
or in all that he leaves undone for hu-
manity's sake"
Mrs. Shillington was shown Mrs.
Henrotin's letter. and asked If she
thought 1t spoke for all the mothers in
America.
Mrs. Shillington could not read any
further than the line ION US war will
fall the heaviest, for we must give up
our sons"
I've already given up one of mine"
she said, my Harry But with one
boy buried in the mud of Havana har-
Dor and another on board United
States cruiser that may be the first to
be sunk in case of war have no ap-
peals to make to the president for
peace. I am a mother and I have
suffered as perhaps not many of the
mothers who have Joined in Mrs. Hen
rotins appeal have suffered, but DO
not shrink at the notion of war. We
must think of our own, and Heaven
knows no one could have thought more
of her boy than I did of the one who
died on the Maine, but there are moth
ers in Cuba who must be thought Of
mothers who have seen their little ones
starve to death by their sides.
Il have no criticism to make on the
women who have Joined in Mrs. Hen
rotin's petition. They want to be
spared the loss of their loved ones and
l pray God that they may be. But Il
he should let them suffer as I have
suffered, if it is for the sake of the dead
and dying in Cuba, If it is for the sake
of our country and her flag, and for the
sake of the boys who were killed on
the Maine, I can only say to them as
! say to myself hundred and a
thousand times a day: 1t had to be,
1t had to be; there was no other way"

received telegram from the adjutant
general Of Connecticut stating that the
governor directs him to notify the de-
partment that the naval battalion Of
Connecticut Is in readiness and Is
awaiting orders from the president.
The navy department received In
formation yesterday that the cruisers
Vlzcaya and Oquendo, the two fine
Spanish vessels which have been lying
at Havana, had left that port. Their
destination Is not known, but there Is
reason to believe that they have gone
to Join the torredo fiotilla.
The naval officials continue reticent
regarding the acquisition of new ves-
sells for the auxiliary feet and the ne
gotiatlons for the purchase Of ships
of war aboard, but there were indica-
tions today that. in spite of the an
nounced belief of the department that
no more ships were to be looked for In
that quarter, all hope has not been
abandoned. No confirmation of the
cable dispatch from Denmark that ne
gotiations were under way for the pur-
chase of two Danish cruisers could be
obtained, but at the same time it was
not denied. Assistant Secretary Roose-
welt, when asked the question direct,
replied that he could not answer
Reconcentrado Order subterfuge.
The subcommittee of the senate
committee on foreign relations appoint
ed TO draft a report and prepare a
form of resolution outlining a course
of action will report to the full COM
mittee at its meeting today. The sub
committee will recommend the adop-
tion of resolution declaring, in the
first place for the recognition Of the
independence of the Cuban republic,
and In the second for the Intervention
by the United States with her army
and navy, for the purpose of assisting
the Cubans to secure Independence In
case Spain continues to refuse to con-
cede it. The committee will treat the
resembling of the order for the recon-
centration of the Cuban non-combat-
ants as subterfuge, aM will dwell
upon the past,-i not the,present, treat
ment of these. unfsrtua&tes; will detail
the Maine incident, and attempt to
demonstrate that it is a sufficient cause
for the declaration Of war if this
country were desirous of making 1t
such, and also will touch upon the in
jury to American interests caused by
the Cuban struggle as a full justi1ca-
ton for our interference. The COM
mittee will report to the senate on Mon
day unless it Is then made evident that
it has been impossible for the presi-
dent to complete his promised message
for lack of time.
Senator Mcmillan who has been In
consultation at the White House two
or three times a day ever since the
situation became critical, made the
following statement: "The president
is f1atfooted on the proposition that
Spain must move out bodily. He also
knows absolutely that Spain cannot or
at least will not, consent to this COM
plete abandonment. That means war.
The president squarely faces that. He
is not ready. He recognized certain
serious unpreparedness. Mckinley
feels he would be guilty of great neg
ligence if the deficiencies be not made
good before we are plunged into war"

Sketch Of Their Two Years. Reign
They Are Slated To Come to BaIti.

ELKToN, Md, April l. With to-mor.
rows races, Cecil county parts company
tho outlaw race-track gambling, which
has held sway for two years with almost
continuous racing. Many citizens arc re-
Joicing over the exodus, as this sport has
had bad effect on the community. Tho
passing OF the Gro hers anti-race track bill
in the Legislature is deemed by Cecil peo-
pie the most important measure that has
come before that body.
Tho managers of the races hailed from
New jersey Pennsylvania and New York.
They came into this county and took ad-
vantage of its law for their own benefit.
At he outset, the community was
| benefited by the races, but for the last yeas
and half but little revenue has been de-
rived, as only the hangers-on have stopped
here. Those with capital made Newark or
Wilmington, DEL, their home.
Two years ago thirty-day meeting was
held at Elkton on the Cecil County Fair
Grounds. After this the scene shifted to
Barksdale and three tracks were laid out
at Iron Hill and conducted by the Key.
stone Racing Association. Singerly was
the next track built, making In all five
different tracks, not including the Elkton
fair grounds. When Alexander Island
closed all those who frequented that place
made for EIkton, and here for two years
past they have resided.
Tho meetings have been successful to
those interested, and it Is estimated that
hundreds of thousands of dollars have
been made At tho first spring meeting
held here 1t is estimated that fully S50,06O
was cleared by the association, which at
that time was composed OF PLiladelphians

About year ago the citizens of Cecil
county started crusade against the races
and Large public gathering was held in
the Elkton Presbyterian Church, at which
the Anti-Race Track League was started.
Letter the representatives of both political
parties pledged themselves to- repeal Of
the law, and this pledge has been faith
fully carried out.
banished from Cecil county, the question
arises, where will they next locate? Balti-
more county is scheduled to receive the
and it is likely that the six hun
lred horses stabbed in this county will
leave for that county. But one thing can
be said OF the racing people, and that is
while they followed such a game, yet their
conduct here was Of tho best with but .
few exceptions.
Two murders were committed in Elkton
Turing the reign Of the bangtails here,
)ut in each the murdered men were racing
people, while the murderers were residents
il Elkton. Both of the murderers wero
'olored men. One of the murdered men
Tasa white and the other a colored man.
Tho races are called ''outlaw" because
hey are not run under the control or ac-
ording to the regulations of the Jockey
;lub, the national governing body for the
unning turf in the eastern part Of the
