STATE OF AFFAIES AT MADRID. Much Depends on the Interpretation Pat Upon Woodlord's Note Which Would Be Considered au Ultimatum if Emanating from a European Power, the London Times Says -Bellef in Spain That We Want Cuba Ourselves, London, Oct. Madrid correspondent of The Standard telegraphing yesterday says: "United States Mirister Woodlord received Spain's reply today. It is said to be a document of over thirty pages." London, Oct. Times, after remarking editorially this morning that "The real danger is that America wiil take some step to precipitate a crisis." says: "General Woodford's note, like other papers emanating from Washington, cannot be construed by the ordinary rules proper to diplomatic correspondence.

This is furtunate, inasmuch as it contains expressions which if they came from a European chancellerie must be interpreted as menacing war. But it 19 unfortunate because it makes the meanEng of the note ambiguous, that no clear Intimation is given of the conesquences of a refusal to acquiesce in the American demands. The note is extremely diffuse and abounds in expressions of friendship and good will toward Spain; but while it apologizes for the earnest and positive nature of the language used on the ground that it is desirable to prevent misunderstandings between two friendly nations that language, in fact. lacks the precision which is usually expected in documents of this kind. Gives the Pith of Woodford's Note.

"There 13 the distinct statement that American interests are suffering, and attitude of neutrality cannot be prolonged indefnitely. There is mention of the concurrent resolution of the two houses of congress last year, of the recent resolution of the senate, and of agitation In the United States. There is an assurance that public opinion nON' demands the recognition of the insurgents as belligerents. In. these circumstances it is suggested that the Spanish government should consider whether it is not time to terminate the war by proposals consistent with its dignily and with the Interests of Cuba.

To this end the government at Washington makes tender of its goud offices and calis upon the Spanish government Within the present month to formulate definite proposals by which that tendered may be rendered effective. or to givesatistactory assurances that the war will be brought to a speedy end. Prefers War to Surrender to Menace. "Spain appears to prefer to lose Cuba in a war she foresees will be disastrous to her, rather than to surrender what she regards as just and right in deference to menace. It is a foolish choice.

but the choice of a nation. On the other hand, if President McKinley and his advisers are really animated by friendly sentiments they profess they may fairly consent to the modest demand of the Sagasta cabinet for a reasonable period to settle the thorny problem haned down by their predecessors. It this demand is refused, all Spaniards will arrive at the conclusion that the ugly rumors in circulation 99 to the financial influences working behind the jingo agitation are ture, and that President McKinley's plausible words are merely intended to cover a projected abuse of superior physical strength." SITUATION AT MADRID DESCRIBED. Spaniards Bellore the United States' Object Is Cuba's Acquisition. The Times editorial is based upon letters from Madrid describing the situation, the second of which appears today dated Oct.

18. The writer, prefacing his remarks by saying that "Circumstances and not American pressure produced change of ministry," discusses the note in practically the same terms as are used in the editorial. He comments on the fact that while amiably expressed the note hints its Intentions in a manner having a "disagreeable resemblance to the consecrated phrase of diplomacy aux which in a similar European document would have the character of an ultimatum. If the truth must be told, General Woodford's amicable assurances are regarded by Spaniards as little beyond polite phrases signifying nothing. and intended to cover unjustifiable aggressive designs.

fact that the insurrection was originally hatched in America and is supported. the from there Americans is mean considered tO possess Cuba. and the tender of their good ortices is regarded as a step in that direction. In supportof thigview the American correspondents of the Madrid papers assert that an American syrdicate with enornous resources and with influential backing at Washington preparing to buy up the land, railways, sugar and tobacco factories and industrial undertakings. and is ever negotiating with the rebel leaders with 2 view to, running the new autonomist government, possibly under the nominal sovereignty of Spain.

but in any case under the real protection of the United States. "I understand that the Spanish government possesses a deal of trustworthy information on this subject There is no in doubt that these projeers exist, and it the authorities at Washington sympathize with them as is suspectedthey will not be much iaclined to wait for the result of the new policy in Cuta, but will persist in intervention on the ground, according to the Woodford poce, not of Weyler's cruelties, but of Injuries to Ameriacn interests. the whole, the prospects al GenIn eral obtaining Any gatisfactory arrangement: are not bright. Fur- thermore it would be a dangerous error to imagine that the Spaniards are playing a game of bluff. They know they would be beaten.

but Castillian pride is willing to accept the consequences. This is. the burden of official talk here. with this addition: 'We never signed the declaration of Paris against privateerAng, and we ought to be able to destroy American commerce all over the world. Let the Americans do their worst.

We are ready to accept the ONLY NINETEEN WERE KILLED. Revised List of the Lost by the Terrible New York Central Disinter. Garrisons, N.

The bodies of the engineer, fireman and Van Etten's secretary are yet in the river, with small hope their immediate recovery.

Shields, of Princeton authorizes the statement that in consequence of "unjust. unconstitutional and defamatory action" of certain presbyteries and synods, involving his good name, he decides for his own personal protection to separate himself from the Presbyterian church in a constitutional manner with the least possible delay. This refers to the granting of a liquor license to the Princeton Inn, Professor Shields' being one of the signers of the petition for the granting of the license.

FAMINE IN GREEN ERIN How It 1s Viewed from Two Points of Observation and by Different Observers. AGREEMENT AS TO PROBABLE WANT But Disagreement as to the Imminence and Extent Thereof- of Pricstx and Others ax to the Extent of the Crop Failure Indicate Distress in the Near Future -Opinion of Government OmicialNothing Like That of '48, Dublin, Oct. are two sides to the question of the famine in Ireland, One side is that of the government, which alleges that the famine is exploited by politicians as an argument against the administration of Irish affairs. The other side--held by many fthe crergy, politicians and people is that it is certain that there will be great distress throughout large sections of the country. A meeting of Roman Catholic prelates was held at Maynooth last week and those present adopted resolutions that the archbishops and bishops of Ireland deem it their duty to submit to the government a statement of their conviction, formed on the personal knowledge of seven members of that body, that the failure.

of the potato and cereal crops in many districts, particularly on the southern and western coasts, must lead great distress and, unless speedy measures of relief are adopted, to disastrous consequences. Government Urged to Act Promptly. From delegates who were present at the convention of the Independents at Dublin last week details of the situation the West dis mint, south were It is part! -tarly bad In learned.a Ireland, from Macroon to the bor. ors of Kerry, including two congested Meetings are being held, the parish priests presiding, to urge government to start relief before the people reach the point actual sufferworks, ing. The district of Bantry, where the greatest suffering occurred in 1847 and 1679, is as bad as the Cork district.

The potatoes are practically exhausted ready. In mid-Cork and along the southern coast there is not more than a quarter of the usual crop. Nothing to Ent by New Years. It is said that a very small percentage of the farmers in these districts have saved their potatoes, and those saved are reported to be so badly diseased that when eaten they produce "Irish cholera." It is feared that the supply of food will be exhausted before the new year. The other crops are very bad.

The laborers are worse off than the farmers, because now that the crops are harvested they have no expectation of work until the spring. The government officials insist upon keeping themselves fully informed regarding the conditions prevailing, and will be able, apparently, to cope with the distress; but they say they are unable to announce at this time what districts or how many people will be affected. VIEWS OF A GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL Talk of a Repetition of the Suffering of 1848 Declared "Great Rubbish." J. B. Dougherty, assistant under-secretary of state for Ireland, discussing the altuation, said there would undoubtedly be suffering, but that the predictions of a famine similar to that of the year 1848 were the "greatest rubbish." He added: "There are several countles en the West Coast of Ireland, where the people have had an exceedingly hard time to attain, self-support under the best conditions.

and it requires but a small push to send them over the line, so that with a small falling off of crops they will be obliged to accept aid. This will be the case in parts of the West Coast. Two circumstances, however, will prevent a recurrence of famine in Ireland under any circumthe increase of railroad facilities since 1848 and the fact that the people no longer depend entirely upon the potato crop. "The truth is that part of Ireland is not sufficiently productive to support its people and it is question whether manufactures should not be taken to them or whether they should DoL be taken to manufacturers of England, he the United States or elsewhere: though I am not prepared to say which. I electricity was largely applied to manufacturing in Ireland that country would have a great future as a manu.

facturing center; but it Ireland obliged to import coal it will be unable to compete with England and other countries. The government is keeping informed on the situation and is fully able to handie any suffering which may arise." In conclusion Dougherty left it to be inferred that relief work would be inaugurated, although he did not say so. Hineman Happens To Be Alive. Springfield, Oct.

INJUNCTION AGAINST PROSCRIPTION.

Labor Union Blacklists a Man and Prevents His Getting Work, New York, Oct. Beach, in the supreme court yesterday, handed down a decision enjoining the United Portable Hoisting Engineers' union and its walking delegate, Peter Gibbons, from interfering with Benjamin P. Davis, non-union man; and also ordering the defendant union to pay Davis $500 damages for having kept him from working from June, 1895, to August, 1896. Davis told how Gibbons had called on a large number of employers and stated that he would order a strike on the buildings. they were erecting unless they discharged him.

Justice Beach says that while conspiring between Gibbons and the union was not proved, sufficent evidence had been given to justify. an injunction preventing further 11- legal proceedings on the part of the defendants.
