Grant Thought Cuba Easy to Capture.

NEW YORK, March .23.-The remarkable
disclosure is made by Leslie's Weekly in
this weeks issue, that, on April 80, 1885,
General Grant wrote to Gen. Adam Badeau,
telling how easy 1t would be for the United
States to capture Havana, by a combined
attack by our land and naval forces. In
this letter, which is printed in facsimile
by Leslie's Weekly, General Grant says
that The hostility of the native population
to Spanish authority would make this (the
capture of Havana) comparatively easy
task for any first-class power, and especial
ly easy for the United States in case of war

KinIey,s Pr0cramme


Associated Press bulletin with reference to
the transmission of the full report of the
court Of inquiry to Washington was read
to the principal consular and naval officials
here and also to the best-known corre-
pondents. There is surprising unanimity of
opinion that the probable course of events
will be that President Mckinley will trans
nit the findings to Madrid, with a note
saying that The Maine disaster was the Gull
minating point of a state of affairs that
must not continue to exist; that the United
States is unwilling to feed indefinitely hum
dreds of thousands of starving women and
children that the commerce of Cuba
should be utterly destroyed; that the war
must stop; that the United States is will
ing to act as arbitrator and to use its best
endeavors to arrange plan to which Spain
and the insurgents might agree.
Ii Spain declines mediation, as is prob
able and seeks to put off definite settle
ment, President Mckinley, it Is believed
he.e, will transmit the note as IAN ulti-
to Congress, where the independence of
Cuba will be declared in strong terms. Then
II Spain insists upon war she must declare
