EXPOSES SPANISH TRIcKeRY.
One Effect Which the Publication of

One Effect Which the Publication of
the De LONE Letter Has Had.
In one aspect Of the case the people of
the United States regard the publication
of the De LONE letter as having its adj
vantageous side. This is in the exposure
it has furnished of the disgraceful dupli-
city and trickery which the Spanish Gov
ernment has been employing in it's pre-
tended negotiations for the conclusion of
a commercial treaty involving American
trade with Cuba AS it is impossible that
the late minister should have been con-
Quoting such game on his own account
and without the knowledge of his employ
ers the Government cannot escape respon-
sbility for the intended fraud.
So far as Minister De LONE is concern
ed his relations with this country have
absolutely ceased and the incident is clos
ed. His resignation and it's acceptance
by the Spanish cabinet eliminated his
personality entirely. According to Wash
ington adyices the President was at no
time particularly annoyed by Senior de
Lome's offensive remark. Minister Wood
ford, however, was instructed in the most

addressed to Senior Canalejas. The Span
ish minister admits writing it. 1t con-
tains expressions rejecting upon the Pres
ident of the United States of such char
acter as to end the minister's usefulness
here. Gen. Woodford has been instruct
ed to inform the Spanish Government that
the immediate recall Of Minister de LONE
is expected"
At meeting of the Spanish cabinet,
held Thursday under the presidency Of
the queen regent, the minister for foreign
affairs, Senior Gullon, read dispatch
from Senior Dupuy de LONE, the Spanish
minister at Washington, saying that the
published letter to Senior Canalejas was
written by him, and that his position, con-
.sequently, had become untenable, and he
begged the Government to accept his res
ignation. The cabinet decided to accept
the resignation Of Senior Dupuy de LONE,
and the ministers subsequently met and
decided to telegraph to Senior de LONE
accepting his resignation and intrusting
the first secretary with the conduct of the
current affairs of the legation.
Senior de LONE sought to cover his re-
treat in an adroit manner by voluntarily
rendering his resignation in advance Of
the Presidents demand for his recall. 1t
is now admitted that he cabled his resig-
nation as early as 10 o'clock Tuesday
night. At 8 o'clock he learned fac SIM
lie copy of the letter was in the hands Of
the newspapers, and an hour later he had
resigned. This step was taken to pre-
serve De Lome's status in the diplomatic
service at home. He hoped thereby to
forestall action by this Government which
would have made him ineligible for reap
pointment in the diplomatic service again.
The President determined not to give the
minister the benefit Of this use and made
the demand for the recall, with view Of
forever terminating Senior de Lome's
usefulness as diplomat.
The feeling Wednesday morning at the
White House and the State Department
was one Of charity for De LONE Nobody
doubted the letter was forgery and
State Department officials showed their
sympathy for the diplomat to the extent
Of calling attention to the Federal statute
protecting foreign diplomats from libel.
While all this anxiety was being shown
for the Spanish minister he was crown
ing his diplomatic career by misleading
the President and State Department in
order to gain personal advantage. This
act of De Lome's was the prime cause for
the President insisting upon registering at
Madrid a demand for his recall. 1t is not
believed by officials of the administration
that the incident will lead to any friction
whatever between the two governments.
