A WARNING TO SPAIN.
Two Note Cabled by lh President
Minliter Woodford.
Madrid, March 29. President Mo
Kinley has cabled two notes to Spain
through Minister Woodford. Onedeali
with the Maine, the other with Presi
dent McKinley's plan of humanitarian
intervention in the Cuban war. Both
notea are expressed in strong, firm lan
guage, without a suggestion of a
threat. They are, perhaps, raeiely
preliminary.
For the destruction of the Maine,
the president demands no indemnity,
fie merely acquaints the Madrid gov
ernment with the fact that the court
of inquiry finds that the Bhip was blown
up in Havana harbor by an external
agency and that nothing but a mine or
torpedo of the largest sie oould have
wrought the destruction. The presi-.
dent submits the facts to the Spanish
government, and waits a reply. Mr.
Woodford did not even demand an
early response.
As to the war in Cuba, President
McEinley advised the Spanish govern
ment in the politest terms that the
time is fast drawing near when the
United States would be compelled to
act upon the warning so often given to
Spain since the struggle in Cnba began.
The president clearly intimated that
the war in Cuba must cease, but he
fixes no date. The note makes the
question of Cuban intervention para
mount to the Maine case, which the
president's memorandum refers ' to
merely as a lamentable incident. The
issues and problems of the Cuban war,
the United States government now calls
urgently to the attention of Spain, de
claring that the conditions prevailing
in Cuba, so near to the shores of the
United States, have long been intoler
able to the American people.
Negotiation! to End the War.
Washington, March 29. The de
velopments of the day in the Cuban
situation indicate progress in the nego
tiations of this country and Spain look
ing to the maintenance of peace, for the
present at least. There is good au
thority for saying that Spain's wish is
to secure a cessation of hostilities in
Cuba, rather than to engage in a war
with the United States, and that it is
more than probable that the negotia
tions with the Sagasta ministry will
take such a turn in the immediate
future. The present Spanish minis
try has expressed a pacific disposition
from. the beginning, and the indica
tions are strong now that it will avail
itself of the good offices of the United
States to the fullest extent that public
opinion in Spain will allow in bring
ing to an end the hostilities in Cnba.
To what extent the United States
may go in assisting Spain in her pres
ent design of securing an armistice is
not determined, but the conservative
element. in the administration consider
the manifestation of this desire on the
part of Spain for even a temporary
peace a direct result of President Mo
Kinley's diplomacy, and they naturally
are disposed to contend that the presi
dent should be left free, for the present
at least, to pursue a policy which prom
ises much in the way of preventing war
between this oountry and Spain; also
of bringing to a close the hostilities in
Cuba. Hence there will be au effort
on the part of the peacefully inclined
in congress to hold that body in check
and to prevent inflammatory utterances
thereuntil this promising diplomatic
lead may be exploited.
On the part of the administration it
is stated that the development of the
situation will not require a great length
ot time, and hence there will be no ex
tended delay.
A policy has been fully determined
upon by the president. It is to bring
the Cuban war to a close. This will
be accomplished by pointed interven
tion, if necessary, but it is considered
far preferable that the end should come
as the result of peaceful negotiations
than that it Bhould be accompanied by
hostile demonstrations on the part of
the'United States. Hence the disposi
tion of the president is to give Spain
an opportunity to secure an armistice
with the Cubans and allow her a rea
sonable time to come to an understand
ing with the hostiles.
It is stated that there is no abate
ment of the president's intention to see
that the war is terminated, and that it
is closed on terms that will render the
Cubans practically a free people.
iriends ot the administration feel
that the situation is very delicate, and j
mucn will depend upon the course the
Cubans may pursue.
The Spanish Elections.
Madrid, March 29. The elections
for the popular branch of the cortes
have passed quietly. The indications
are that the government of - Senor Sa
gasta will have an enormous majority,
estimated at S00 of the 432 seats in the
chamber. Disorders are apprehended
at Bilboa, where the polling caused
great excitement. The military judge
at Bilboa issued a warrant for the ar
rest of three socialist municipal coun
cilors. One of them was taken into
custody, but the other two escaped.
Spain's Refusal.
Berlin, March 29. The Madrid
correspondent of the Berliner Tageblatt
says: "Spain will not only refuse to
allow American interference in assist
ing the suffering Cubans, but will de
cline to pay indemnity, unless it is
shown unmistakably that the Spanish
authorities were responsible for the
Maine explosion. If President McKin
ley demands these two things, war is
unavoidable."
A Fund to Buy Warships.
Madrid, March 29. The latest intel
ligence from the United States has oc
casioned a great patriotic movement
throughout Spain. A large number of
persons have announoed their intention
to give up a day's pay for services in
order to raise a fund to purchase war
ships. A committee, over which the
bishop of Madrid will preside, has been
organized to receive the subscriptions.
Crisis in Porto Eico.
Madrid, March 29. An official note
has been issued which says: Owing
to the interruption of oable service to
Porto Bico, the government has been
without news until this morning, when
the report . was confirmed of disagree
ments among the liberal element in
Porto Bioo. The old autonomist party,
finding its interests affected in connec
tion with tbe eleotions to the insular
chamber, has published, a manifesto
compromising to the union among the
autonomists and to the very existence
of tilt insular government.
READY TO BUY LIBERTY.
Cuban Would Welcome Such a Sola
tium of the rroblera.
New Vork, March 28. A special to
the New York Tribune says: General
Gomes, commander-in-chief of the
Cuban army of liberation, reaffirms the
willingness of the insurgents to pur
chase independence by payment of a
reasonable indemnity to Spain. Gen
eral Gomes expresses the hoje that the
price of Cuba's liberty may not neces
sarily be war between the United
States and Spain, and declares there
can be no doubt as to the ultimate tri
umph of the Cuban cause, even though
the insurgents receive no outside aid.
Tbe Spanish Version.
Madrid, March 28. The report ot
the Spanish board of inquiry into the
loss of the Maine says emphatically
that the explosion was of internal ori
gin, that it is "scientifically and prac
tically demonstrated that the explosion
was internal."
The United States minister, General
Woodford, had a long conference this
evening with the minister of foreign
affairs, Senor Gullon. Absolute reti
cence is observed as to what transpired.
JOHN LEONARD HANGED.
Murderer of Jacob Malqnist Pay tbe
Death Penalty.
Colfax, Wash., March 28. The legal
execution of John Leonard for the mur
der of Jacob Malquist, at Texas City,
occurred this afternoon, in the presence
of fully 1,000 people.
Leonard was brought from the jail
and ascended the scaffold steps unas
sisted, at l:16o'clock. Father Kearns,
at the request of Leonard, read a short
final statement protesting his innocence
of willful murder.
At 1:21 o'clock Leonard Btepped on
the trap and shook hands with the offi
cers and reporters.
At 1:24 a voice called out, "Good
bye, Jack," and Leonard responded in
full tones, "Good-bye, Charley." As
the last word left his lips the trap was
sprung, and Leonard dropped six feet,
the body rebounded slightly and then
hung stark; not a movement of the
muscles being noticeable. The body
hung 16 minutes, when he was pro
nounced dead by the attending physi
cians. Leonard on the scaffold, although
showing nervousness, looked about at
the surrounding crowd. The body was
at once taken in charge by Father
Kearns, and conveyed to the oemetery
and funeral exercises held.
CLERKS UNDER SUSPICION.
Frauds on a Number of St. Paul Banks
Recently I nearthed.
Washington, March 28. Information
reached the government through a
number of banks at St. Paul that dur
ing the past year and more these and
other nearby banks have been made the
victims of a colossal fraud through the
suspected collusion of government
clerks connected with the commission
having in charge the improvements on
the upper Mississippi river. Full de
tails have not yet reached the govern
ment, but the statements submitted by
the banks indicate that (300,000 or
more has been procured from them
through fraudulent time checks for.
services never performed.
How the banks came to be imposed
upon to the extent stated and why the
checks have been withheld until this
time, cannot even be conjectured. It
is understood the banks will make a
claim for reimbursement, but the law
is said to be clearly against this conten
tion. The government will begin a
searching investigation into the whole
matter

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.
Trade Conditions In the Leading Cities
of the World.
The belief is pretty general now that
Leiter will carry his deal straight
through May, and that there will be no
more money for the May short at Chi
cago. There were those who felt in the
month that the load would be too heavy
for any mortal, and that Leiter would
be glad to stop. There are those still
who believe the bull campaign will
wind up with a loss rather than a profit;
but even these believe the loss will be
taken abroad and that the Chicago
campaign will be oloeed with a display
.S 1 ..... .. I
vi ureworKS ana all tne outward signs
of triumph. There are clever "pit pro
fessionals who are of the opinion the
deal will run into July. No one can,
in fact, ever foretell the end of these
huge speculative operations. The
weather is the most potent influence.
It might make it possible for the whole
bull line to be unloaded in advance of
May 31, at a huge profit, or it might
create such a bearish sentiment the
world over as to finally make a loss
abroad greatly in excess of any amount
exacted from shorts at Chicago. In
ternational politics will be a faotor;
perhaps a very bullish, perhaps a very
bearish one. War with Spain would
hurt prices on its declaration, but
would bull prices finally, and a peace
ful eud, on the other hand, might jump
prices on the first sentiment of relief,
but result in a dull, bearish season
later. It is not to be forgotten that
contract wheat is being poured into the
Chicago elevators at the rate of 700,000
bushels per week, and that this stream
will be increased as the May delivery
day approaches.

POLITICAL PARTIES COMBINE.
I'opullits. Silver Republicans and lnn
erats of Oregon Join Issues.
Three state conventions met in Port
land last week, the Populist, silver
Republican and Democratic. A union
of forces or fusion is the result. All

by the Populists at Friday's session,
and agreed to a division of the offices
by a conference committee. The plat

and uniting for the purpose of carrying out
ths great underlying principles upon which
we are all agreed, do make and present
to the people of (Ms ststs ths following deo
lsratton ot principles, and to the carrying
out of which we solemnly pledge each and
every candidate upon our united ticket:
First Ws demand the free and unrestrict
ed coinage of silver and gold at the pres
snt legal ratio of IS to 1, without walling
for ths consent of foreign nations: 'and we
are unaltersbly opposed to the policy of ths

manding ths retirement ot greenbscks. snd
ths turning over ot ths money-msklng pow
er ot ths government to t.'.e nstlonal banks,
as presented by ths bill drswn by ths repub

by President McKlnley; and we esnsclill
denounce ths avowed attempt by ssld bill to
fastsn ths country Irrsvocably and forever
to ths single gold standard.
Ws demand a national money, safe snd
sound. Issued by the genersl government
only, without ths Intervention of banks of
issue, to be a full legal tender for all debts,
public and private; also a Just, equitable

of the government.
We demand that the volume of circulating
medium be speedily Increased to an amount
sufficient to meet the demands of ths busi
ness and population of this country, and to
restore the Just level of prices of labor snd
production.
We favor such legislation as will prevent
for ths future the demonetisation of any
kind of legal-tender money by private con
tract. Ws demand that the government, In pay
ment ot Its obligation, shall use Its option
aa to the kind of lawful money In which

surrendering this option to ths holders of
government obligations.

tutlon shall have been amended so ss to
provide for direct legislation.
We condemn as dangerous and unjust ths
surrender, In all departments of the govern
ment, to ths Influence of trusts, corporations
and aggregations of wealth generally; and
the packing of ths highest courts of ths Isnd
with corporation lawyers, too ready to do
the will of their late employers, and to set
aside valid and wholesome laws passed by
the legislative departments of ths ststes snd
government, upon flimsy pretsxts, at ths be
hests of such Institution.
We are opposed to government by Injunc

A simple and well-guarded registration
law.
A more equltabls mode ot
appointing
Judges of election.
Stringent laws to regulate the operation of
Bin traps, (lh wheels and all Ashing gesr
In the waters within the Jurisdiction of ths

In Its eagerness for the spoils of offlus, has
become divided Into warring factions, so
