Will Not Abandon That Hope TIL War
Actually Begins.
In answer to a request Of the Associated
Press, Gen. Stewart L. Woodford. the
United States minister to Spain, made the
following statement yesterday:
The obligations Of my diplomatic posi-
ticn absolutely forbid my granting an in
terview or giving the slightest intimation
as TO the present condition of the diplo-
matte negotiations intrusted 10 my care.
1 came to Spain under instructions from
President Mckinley to secure peace in Gu
la, with a permanent peace between the
United States and Spain-a peace that
should be built upon bed rock conditions
conditions of justice to Cuba, with assured
protection to the great American interests
in that island
Il have labored steadily to obtain this
result. 1 have never lost my faith, and.
doubtful as conditions may seem today, /
still believe these great and good purposes
of my President may yet be secured. l
shall rot desist from my labors for just
ard honorable peace until the guns actual
1y open fire, and my faith is still strong
that war, with all its horrors, can be avert
ed.
Enough blood has been shed in Cuba
already, and 1 cannot believe that the clos
ing hours of the nineteenth century will be
Redeemed by a conflict between Spain and
the United States. Ny country asks for
reaca, based upon conditions that shall
make peace permanent and beneficent, and
l have faith that Spain will yet do what
is necessary to assure Justice for Cuba.
And with justice peace Is certain"

Spaninrds Are Now Prepared to Blow

A special to the New York World from
Havana Sunday says: Three nights ago
the Spanish government secretly placed
two lines of twenty mines each under
water between Moro Castle and Punta,
az the narrowest part of the channel. This
Information comes from official sources
and is absolutely correct.
The mines are spherical and float about
twenty-four feet Under the surface. Each
Is attached by anchor chains to a heavy
anchored cable on the bottom. Deton-
ating wires run up the chains. Sufficient
force is there to paralyze the biggest ship
afioat, but If an entering fleet uses counter
mines or bow torpedoes when approaching
the narrowest portion of the entrance the
mines can be exploded without doing any
harm.

An interesting compilation of the naval
strength available for Spain in case Of war
has been issued by Colonel Wagner, chief

War Department. 1t shows the total num-
Der of ships, including those now building

tiers or under special circumstances. There
are eleven armored ships Of an aggregate
tonnage of over $1,000, all of which. ex-
cept three. have speed of 20 knots or
more. There are 80 cruising ships, which
include cruisers proper. gunboats, torpedo
gunboats, gun vessels, dispatch vessels and
sloops Of war. All except eight of these
are of less than 1900 tons. About two
thirds are of less than 1000 tons. None OF
the cruising ships has any armor except
two or three, which have slight deck pro-
lection. Thirteen of them have a speed
above IS knots. There are three gun YES
sells and four gunboats designed for SER
vice in Cuban waters" They are of light
tonnage and armament. There are also
eighteen small steel gunboats for service in
Cuba, carrying each one 6-pounder Maxim
Nordenfeldt rapid-fire and one 1-pounder
Maxim-N ordenfeldt automatic gun. In the
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES class there are six
vessels with a speed of % knots or over.
There are sixteen torpedo boats of light
tonnage and a speed ranging from 8 to 251a
knots per hour. The ships building include
the following:
Battle ship. unnamed 1000 tons, de
signed to make 10 knots; an armored cruis-
er, unnamed. 1880 tons, q knots; two pro-
tected cruisers, the Reina Regente OF 5.372
tens and the Rio de la Plata of 1,775 TONS

pedo gunboat Velos, $50 tons, of 20 knots
speed, and torpedo gunboats the number Of
