representative Of that prosperity. The

Wichita, and it contains four and a
half pages of delinquent tax list. This

pieces of property which are about to

SPain's prompt action in severing
diplomatic relations with the United
States the moment President McKin-
ley's ultimatum demanding, IN the
name of this government, that Spain
must relinquish its authority in the
Island of Cuba, is tantamount to a
declaration of war. The ultimatum
cabled to Minister Woodford at IL a.
M, Wednesday, was in this positive
language:
April 20, 1S9S.-Woodford, Minister,
Madrid: You have been furnished with
the text of a JOINT resolution voted by
the congress of the Uuited States upon
the 18th unsupported today-ln
relation to the p~acification of the
island of Cuba.
ssIn obedience TO that act, the pres
ident directs you to Immediately con
municate to the government of Spain
said resolution with the formal demand
of the United States that the govern
ment of Spain must relinquish its
authority and government in the island
of Cuba and withdraw its land and
naval forces from Cuba and Cuban
waters.
''In taking this step the United
States hereby disclaims any disposition
or intention to exercise sovereignty,
Jurisdiction or control over said island
except for the pacification thereof, and
asserts its determination when that is
accomplished, to leave the government
and control of the island to its people
under such free and independent gov
eminent as they may establish.
.sIf by the hour of noon, on Saturday
next, the Esd day of April, instant,
there be not communicated to this
government by that of Spain a full and
satisfactory response to this demand
and resolution whereby the ends of peace
in Cuba shall be assured, the president
will proceed without further notice to
use the power and authority enjolned
and conferred upon HIM by the said
joint resolution to such extent as may
be necessary to carry the same into
effect. "SHERMAN.'

To this ultimatum from our govern

Without waiting for the formal presen-

Spanish government served notice
through its minister of foreign affairs
that all diplomatic relations had been
severed. Minister Woodford at once
t~elegraphed our state department as
follows:
