four 12-inch guus-two west and two east

There was a report in Washington Sun

prepared for sea service, and that both yes

An English inventor, Joseph p. Glib

Spanish for mining Havana harbor 1t is
also said that ten tons of gun cotton
and material for submarine mines were

The naval court is personally directing
the work of the divers and getting their

Advices of an official character from
Madrid are to the effect that the Sagasta
government will do all in its power to
avoid war, and, to that end, will not send
its torpedo fleet to Cuban waters.

says the Maine was blown up from the

England's sympathy with America.

The Americans in London express
themselves as being much gratifed at the
friendly attitude which the British gov
eminent has evinced toward the United
States. By the advice of the British GOV
eminent, ship-builders and dealers in
munitions of war in England insist, prac-
tically, upon cash payments in case of all
orders booked by Spain. 1t seems that
the Spanish embassy when bargaining
with the ship-buildng and other firms, in
directly suggested that Great Britain sym
pathized with Spain This coming to the
ears of the British government. the latter
lost no time in putting the firms which
are in the habit of doing government work
on their guard. Another rumor which has
decidedly pleased the Americans in Lon
don has it that the United States govern
ment has succeeded In obtaining complete
plans of the principal Spanish harbors
and their defences

Senator Edmunds's Reply TO the New
York World.
From the Springfield REPUBLICAN,

The yellow journals have habit of tel
egraphing late at night to eminent men at
various points on the earth's surface ask
ing their opinion on certain matters. But
they do not always print the answers they
receive. For example the World tele-
graphed to ex-senator Edmunds:-
viii you kindly telegraph New York World an
expression of your opinion The duty of the
hour IN the present grave crisis of national AT.
fairst If it be proved Maine was DESTROYED by
spanish treachery, what course do YOU think the
president should pursuef Would not freedom for
CUBA be the only adequate atonement?
And Mr.. Edmunds kindly ans wered:-
Have yours. 1.-THE duty Of the hour is dignity
self-possession, patience. We are brave enough
ana strong enough TO wait. We ought not 10
consider IN advance of the naval report the ex
istence OF such horrible possibility as you refer
But it had to be printed in some other
paper 1t wasn't the Worlds style.

iments of artillery. There are but 1925
artillery men in the service now. The
guns to be emplaced by July / will REQUIRE

The English newspapers confirm the
news of Spains purchase of warships. Ac-
cording to the st. James Gazette She has
bought three nearly completed cruisers in
England and two coast defence vessels also
about to be launched in France A report
has been sent out to the effect that Spain

The correspondent of the New York
Herald, whose reports are as reliable as
any sent out from Key West. writes
without assuming to forecast what this
conservative court of naval experts will
actually report when the time comes to
formulate its conclusions, l believe the
court is practically certain to report that
the Maine disaster was not an accident.
believe it is equally certain TO indicate
clearly the facts which prove the primary
explosion to have been under the ship's
bottom and not over it. The court is not
likely to fasten the act on any person or
persons, much less to attribute it directly
TO any representatives of the Spanish gov
eminent. Its report will probably be
unanimous"

The news was flashed over the country
Sunday that the Spanish government had
requested the recall of Consul General Lee
and had coupled with it a similar demand
that relief supplies sent from Key West To
CUBA should be borne by ships other than
Warships, in order that no hope of inter
ventlon would be held out to the insur-
gents, and that both requests had been
promptly refused by this government.
The first intimation of these steps came
IN brief and explicit cable despatch from
Madrid. Prior to its receipt, however. the
authorities at Washington had been fully
conversant with the facts, although no in
timation had been allowed to get to the
public on either subject.
The disclosure from Madrid left no
further ground for reticence in Washing
ton, and after conference at the White
House between the President, Assistant
Secretary Day of the state department and
Secretary Long of the navy department
the following authorized statement was
handed to the Associated Press by Judge
Day as comprising everything that was to
be said by the administration on the sub
ject:
The President will not consider the
recall of General Lee. He has borne him
self throughout this crisis with Judgment,
hdellty and courage, to the Presidents en-
tire satisfaction
las to the supplies for the relief of the
Cuban people all arrangements have been
made to carry consignment this week
from Key West by one of the naval vessels.
whichever may be best adapted and most
available for the purpose, to Matanzas and
Sagua"
Beyond the foregoing, those who had
participated IN the conference at the White
House would not discuss the subject, and
II was stated positively that the authorized
statement comprised everything that
would he given to any one.
The request for General Lees recall
came through Minister Woodford, a some
what unusual procedure, as the common
mode OF requesting the withdrawal of a
minister or consul is through the repre-
sentative OF the government making the
request, which, in this case, is Senior Du
Bose the Spanish Charge d'Affaires. Mr..
Du Bose had received no instructions on
the subject, and was in complete ignor.
ance OF the demands made through Minis
ter Woodford
The other suggestion of the Spanish
government, that relief supplies should not
be sent in war vessels, did not come
through Minister Woodford, as the Mad
rid dispatches state, but was presented by
Senior Du Bose to the state department
last Friday,
The responses in both cases went direct
TO Minister Woodford. There appeared to
be no reason why change should be made
in the plan for sending these ships on the
relief mission, and, without attaching grave
significance to the request of the Spanish
government, the answer was made that
the plans for the trip were completed, and
that the stay of the ships would be
brief and of the most pacific character.
One phase of the incident that tends to
show the firm stand taken by the admins.
tration is the expedition with which the
action was accomplished. Such a matter,
ordinarily is laid before the cabinet, the

The navy department has announced
that the cruiser Montgomery will relieve
the despatch boat Fern at Havana, and
that the Fern will carry provisions and re-
lief supplies to Matanzas and Sagua la
Grande. This is understood to be salts
factory to the Spanish government. The
Montgomery is an unarmored cruiser of
2OS9 tons, with an armament of ten guns.
1t is thought the officers and men on the
Montgomery are taking no risk in going to
Havana. Should hostilities break out it is
rule OF honorable warfare that they be
given safe convoy out of the waters of the
hostile country The Monterey reached
Havana Wednesday.
