Minister Woodford Confidently Expected
Settlement.

settlement
London, April IA desnatoh from
Madrid, via Bayonne, France which was
sent yesterday evening before the cabinet
council, and which shows that General
Woodford, the other diplomats and the
palace fully believed a settlement of the
Cuban crisis had at last been arrived at
and would be accepted by the cabinet,
says:
"This has been an exciting day in
political circles. The Queen Regent APP
bellicose section of the cabinet md has
agreed to settlement, which those who
have advised her. admit will mean the
ultimate freedom of Cuba or a govern
ment satisfactory to the insurgents.
"No one who has not heard the inside
history of the negotiations can realize the
difficulties and evasion General Woodforti
has had to contend with. 1t was a. m.
when the General received the telegram
from President Mckinley approving the
plan of settlement, and after an inter
view with the Austrian ambassador.
Count Deym who was acting as the
Queens intermediary the last obstacle
was apparently removed and the publ ca
ton OF the proclamation of Friday was
re &arCeQ as CoFlQlHUy. linen came the
news of violent discussions in the cabinet
but it was followed by a positive state
ment from the palace circles that the
Queen had taken the bit in her teeth and
was prepared to change the ministry if
necessary. After that came the announce
ment that the discussions were healed
that the cabinet was intact and that the
settlement would be carried at tonight
council.
Public feeling as expressed in the cafes
and streets was very violent against the
armistice. The cry We are betrayed and
denunoiations of the Pope and Queen Re-
gent were on every tongue. This feeling
was evidently fomented by the military
party and a large batch of promotions and
decorations for the army and navy is an.
nounced which adds to their zeal
The Spanish non-official press has had
the war fever for the last few days and it
would be difficult to cause 1t to back
down. Even some of the Catholic circles
prophesied Indignation throughout athe
length and breadth of the country and
outbreaks as well il Spain yielded.
1.-THE guns of the Carlists have been
somewhat spiked owing to the Pope s
initiative but the Republicans have had
free hand with the additional anti
Clerical cry.
THE Pals today announces the forma-
ton of it's office of new Republican club
the Ruiz Zorrille for the ANAL anation
