Text of the Famous Woodford Note
to Spain
NO StGGESTION OF FORCE IS MADE
United States Volunteers Good Of-
fices to Close the War
IN THE INTEREST OP HUMANITY
Manr Reason Presented Why the
Fish tins In Calm Should Stop
at nn Erly Date
Chicago October 1 A Waahlngton fe
cial to tho TimesHerald says
It Is now possible for the TtatcsHcrald
to give not the exact text ot tho famous
Woodford note to Spain but a fair state-
ment of Its substance
This now celebrated and much dUcussed
document Blnvolv exDrcsses on tho Dart t
tho United States the hope that the war
will be brought to a closo as spoedlly as
possible but thero Is no dato fixed when
tho consummation Is to be reached and
Intimates that tho Interests of humanity
and the world at largo aro reasons why tho
war should bo ended And with that In
Mow acting as a friend to Spain becauso
of tho great stake which tho United
States has In Cuba nnanclally and other-
wise bocauso of tho annoyance to which
tho United States has been nut by main-
taining a patrol over and hunting tho fili-
bustering expeditions and because civiliza-
tion opposes tho war the United States
tendered to Spain its good ofQces to act
as a friend between the mother country
and her rebellious colony in tho hopo that
sho may bo ablo to effect a settlement
and bring the warfaro to a closo Tills la
nil thero Is in tho note Thero Is not tho
faintest suggestion ot thla government
forcing upon Spain her good offices It sho
docs net caro to voluntarily accept thiuu
Spain must return an answer to this note
by a fixed date
NO SOLUTION YET
lUucrnla 1Vonlrt Not Like to Accept
Under Present Conditions
Madrid October 1 Mttrehal Martens
Campos was In conference with tho auoen
regent today for an hour and a half Ho
oxprcsscd tho opinion that a chamro or
policy was possible with tho present
chamber It tho minority supported the new
cabinets economic measures and attltudo
toward tho colonies
Later tho queen regent received Senor
Sagnsta and Senor Pldal president of the
chamber ot deputies Tomorrow sho will
make her decision Her maiesty todav ex-
pressed a desire to retain If possible tho
present chambers believing that a gen-
eral election would have a disturbing ef-
fect For this however a conservative
cabinet would be necessary None of tho
liberals are Inclined to accent office ar
they would only find themselves at tho
mercy of the conservative chambers Gen-
eral Campos has been endeavoring to ef
fect arrangements whereby tho chnmbcrs
might bo retained In caso tho liberals were
supported but so fnr he has Been unsuc-
cessful
Later Senor Sagasta sayB ho Is willing
to undertake tho construction ot a cabinet
and It is hoped that tho crisis will bo
solved tomorrow

Luilng Texas October 1 On tyestcrdaye
Southern Pacific train a Post correspondent
met Senor Pedro Garcia of Byamo Cuba
Mr Garcia said tn his fluent Cuban Span-
ish that was a llttlo oft from that spoken
In AVcat Texeo I can tell you how this
whole trouble can bo settled between Spain
and tho United States In short order The
United States has undoubtedly done more
to crush Cuba than Spain haa This may
sound strange to you a resident ot an in
terior town but It is a fact Not a pound
of any article go < e Into the hands of tho
Cuban Insurgents but has to run two block-
ades That established by your govern-
ment Is much hardor to ovado than that of
Spain Wo caro little for the bumboats
that patrol the Cuban coait under tho
Spanish flag If tho United States wljl
order Its fleet of patrol from tho gulfports
let Spain stand on her own decks we will
thrash every Spanish soldier from Cuban
boH In six weeks All wo ask Is to Iia let
nlona and that our friends be allowed to
assist us We now count ourselves free
but we may havo to fight a year longer
You can be sure of one tiling Cuba will
never accept anything but fbsolute Inde-
pendence We aro loceo from Spain for-
ever I am on ray way to the City of
Mexico and expect to be back in Cuba
within a month
Senor Garcia was elegantly equipped and
expects to do gool work for the young re-
public during his Journey

paring to irfvo an oration to Senor Sagasta
their leader on his arrival here today It
is taken for granted that he will form a
cabinet ot which probably Senor Caraaro
will be minister for foreign affairs Senor

ATTITUDE OF AMERICANS
National Rctlew Comments Upon
Intervention In Culm
London Ootobor 1 Tho October num-
ber ot the National Rovtow contains an
article on the situation In Cuba which
saysThe
The great mass of the people of the
United States have long wished to inter-
vene in Cuba at all costs Tho British
peoplo would in their place shire their
sentiments and desires and long before
this tho British government would bavo
been compelled to net or would htvo
perlihed in Anurioa hotvvvi there ap-
pears frequently to bo a coinploto dlvoico
pn foreign questions between public un
lon and tho quadrennially eleoted dirrot
Tho last despot declared that ubt lav
within the American Bphere of actiun and
warned the other powers against interfer-
ence They acquiesced Tho policy of tho
present despot has not yet boon revealed
Wo do not much bcllovo In his nllcccd
ultimatum though possibly ho may tako
somo step which will causo tho Spanish
people to boll over
Every European must sympathize with
tho courageous and deservedly reniccted
queen regent or Spain In her terrible politi-
cal afflictions This docs not anVct the
fact however thnt Cuba under Hranlsh
auspices has become a hell upon carta end
It would be a gravo reproach upon the
American peoplo If they did not dcx ro to
suppress such a hideous scandal at their
very doors Tho administration on tho
other hand is desperately anxious tn avoid
a crisis which will probably come in somo
shapo and may bo precipitated on Spain
IN MEXICO
Concpaxlnn for n Powder Mill Mut-
ters for CoiurrrnN
Mexico City October 1 A conccsalon
has been granted for tho establishment
of ono or moro modorn powder and ex-
plosive mills In this country The company
is obliged to receive n certain number of
Btudents and cadets from mining and mil-
itary schools It is granted nn exemption
ofduty on materials for Its building etc
Two matters of great interest oro likely
to give oi now turn to public attention
very soon as congress will probably dlscum
tho alleged Infractions of tho reform laws
by various religious orders It being
charged that a number of clandestlno con
voats have been established In tho coun-
try in ilcflanre of tho3e laws Tho nsso
clatlqnvot nicrrtbers pt religious orders is
forbidden by law and thl3 reatilaltlpn Is
claimed to have been broken Tho radical
liberals claim thnt Jesuits Aucustlalans
and various Catholic educational orders aro
established hero and phould he dispersed
Another matter to come before congress
is the revival ot tho project for subject-
ing citizens to compulsory military ser-
vice which will be warmly opposed Tho
army Is now kept up by roonllstments
and sometimes by conscripting Indiana who
aro reported as disorderly and troublesome
In the interior towns Military discipline
transforms theso men Into methodical and
civilized citizens and undoubtedly docs
good
