time all spamards remaining in the
island must have made declaration

Spain. Failure to make such declara-

OF peace that they have renounced
such allegiance and TO have adopted
the nationality OF Cuba.
Although the Cuban census will be
completed on Thursday, elections cam
not occur until after April 80, In order
that all the persons entitled to a voice
in the affairs Of the island, may cast
their vote. 1t is understood that Gen.

NEW YORK. Nov ga special to

The latter plan commends itself to
the president especially In view of

Ludlow to secure recognition OF his

he wishes to consult with General
Wood and obtain his views, In any
event General Woods appointment,
