ESE— THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, JUNE 19, 1897. SPAIN S GIVEN DUE WARNING United States Deter- mined That Cuba Will Be Freed. INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN TO | WOODFORD. The New Minister Will First Ask That Weyler’s Hand Be Checked. BRUTALITY TO THE PACIFICOS MUST CEASE. If Necessary Measures Considered Not Diplomatic May Be Resorted To by This Country. LONDON, Exe.. June 18.—A dispatch to the Chronicle from Washington says: President McKinley to-night personally instrucied Woodford to impress upon Spain that noth can prevent the | United States from interfering in Cuba. Tne American people are deterwined : | that Cuba will be ireed, and this determi- | | | ation amounts to a mandate that must be obeyea. The Minister was in- structed al120 to impress upon Spain that its resolve to retain Cuba will invite not o a sacrifice of pride, but also the lives of soldiers and a vast expenditurs of money. The United States does not de- sire to take advantage of Spain’s trouble to annex Cuba, but unless Spain meetsthe | inevitable by giving Cuba freedom, the United States will be compelled to inter- | fere, in which case annexation might naturally follow. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 18.—Posi- tive instructions for guidance In making representations to the Spanish Govern- ment of the attitude of the United States concerning Cuba have been given Wood- ford, who will carry them on as soon as possible. The new Minister left for| Brooklyn to-day to make arrangements ior his departure, but will probably re- turn to Washington for & further conier- ence with the President. He expects to | sail within a fortnigat. The character of Woodford’s instruc- tions indicate the intention of the Presi- dent to preservea friendly attitude toward Spain, but to be firm and positive if neces- sity demands. In the talks had with the President vesterday Woodford obtained a fuil explanation of the course McKinley him to pursue. His first duty be 10 secure from Spain a revoca- e concentration order of Weyler by which aged men, women and children are compelled to gather in cities and towns. The sufferings of thess pacificos have been terrible. The reports from Lee and oiber consular officers have shown the President the extent of their distress tbrough disease and starvation, and he is especially anxious to secure the ameliora- tion of their condition. He regards Wey- ler's order as inhuman and unnecessary, and has directed Woodford to urge in the interests of humanity thatit be rescinded. This will be a delicate undertaking and | the President realizes it may result in an ntimation from Spain that the Minister from the United States would do weli to mind nis own business, Woodford’s main object would be to im- | press upon Spain the carnest desire of the President to end the bloody struggle, and to secure a guarantee that Spain will allow s Government to co-operate in securing the resioration of peaceful conditions, He will explain the great interest this coun- try hasin the Cuban situation on com- niercial grounds and feelings of sympathy with neighboring people. The great in- jury to American trade will be pointed out, as well as the immense loss to Amer- ican capital invested. The written re- rts of Lee and verbal explanations of Calboun will be cited to show the suffer- ing among the Cuban peopls should be relieved or ended without delay. These things will be followed by a tender of the good offices of the United States to end the war, and while the President is in- clined to believe the tender would be ac- cepted, he is by no means certain, The future policy of the administration will depend on the manner in which the represeutations of Woodford are received. 1f Spain acquiesces in the necessity of stopping the war immediately Woodford will proceed to negotiate to that end. If, however, Spain sbows a disposition to re- sent our interference instructions will be sent to the new Minister of such a posi- tive nature that the United States will b come an active party in securing Cuban independence by a measure not strictly diplomatic. It can be stated positively that nothing vital to the cause of Cuba, as 1ar as the United States is concerned, will occur until after Wooaford has re- ported to this Government the result of his representations. - SEVEN MILLIONS A MONTH, Zhat Is the Deficit Spain Now Faces in Cuba MADRID, Spain., June 18 —A bad im- pression has been created by a cable aated Havana, June 14, rcceivea by the Corres- pondencia de Espana, a semi-official organ.

Two weeks ago, by previous arranzement, he met a filibustering steamer at the mouth of Yuanabo River, fourteen miles east of Havana, and though a Spanish patrol crulser was but a few miles away and Spanish troops were near at band, he succeeded in receiving a large supply of arms and ammunition and other military stores, and conveying them His latest exploit, one of the holdest and mostimportant of the whole war, was the capture, some days ago, of a train loaded with troobs and $200,000 in gold on the Havana and Matanzas Railroad. effected within eleven miles of the city and within two miles of a Spanish force at Campo Florido.

C., June 18.—The | Becretary of Agricalture submitted to the Cabinet to-day a statement showing the disastrous effect of the Cuban war upon trade relations with the United States, According to this statement the total value of the Cuban trade this year amounted to only $47,548610, compared with §102,364 204 in 1893.

Born Carried the Missile in His Brain. 1 | Had Been a Subject for Lectures by Surgeons, Who Trled In Vain to Save Him. BOSTON, Mass., June 18.—Franklin B. Born of Mediord died to-day at the Massa- chusetts General Hospital as a resuit of | ided by X-ray photographs for the removal of a bullet from his brain. The death recalls a singular accident of which Born was a victim, which occurred about fifteen years ago at the Mystic pumping station of the Boston Water Works. Born, who was then about 18 years of age, was examining a loaded re- | volver with another companion in the boiler-room of the works, wuen the wea- | von was discharged. The ball entered | just above the left eye and took an up- ward course between the skull ana flesh and continued on to the base of the skull, | where it entered the brain. All efforis to rrobe and find the bullet proved fruit- less, and it was stated at the time | by the attending physicians that Born could not live any length of time. He, | bowever, lived fifteen years, although during that time he had suffered such | pain that Le was rendered unconscious at | times. He wasa frequent visitor at the hospital, where surgeons oiten examined him and lectured over him for the benefit of the profession. He had been a subject for a large number of operations. | During the last two years te began to | have continual fits, lasung long leagths of | time, The pain grew so unbearable that | recently he decided to undergo an opera- tion more serious than was ever before at- tempted. It was, comparatively speak- | ing, a slim chance, but he decided to take the chance rather than endure the tor- | tore any longer. He was placed under ether yesterday, but never recovered. The bullet was found in the tase of the brain on the lefi-hand side. Cathode photo- grapis made of his head had previously | budded in the orain tissue. i STAYS 1HE& HANGMAN'S HAND, | dwo D urderers Chane Kespited Throwgh a | Fuxttor. CHICAGO, ILL., June 15.—Jesse Sogers, who was to have been hunged to-day for | the murder of George Spirokatas, owes the | brief reprieve which Las been granted | him by the Governor of the Stats to a | chance visit paid to the Cook County jail | in this city by Elitor Haus J. Reig of the | Birmingham, (Ala.) Courier. | While conversing with Jailer Whitman ‘he latter casually remarked to Mr. Reig | that one of the cells ol ihe building was | occupied by o Birmingham negro under sentence of death. Upon being taken to Sogers’ cell the | editor immediately recognized the pris- ouer as a janilor formerly employed by a prominent citizen of Birmingham. Reig had known Sogers very favorabiy in the Soutn, and found it impossible to believe him guilty. Henice be sent a message to B. M. Allen, a Birmingham attorney, asking him to come at once to Chicago and tuke up Bogers’ case. Asaresult the matter will be brought before the Board of Purdons and possibly appeaied to the Supreme Court, with, itis alleged, more than a possibility of favorable action on behalf of the convicted man. | Governor Tanner has also granted a | respite to Scot: Price, the supposed ac- complice of Sogers, on the ground that one prisoner suould’ not be favored while the other is refused a siay of execution. s e ey BARNEY BARNATO'S BROTHER, Claim of a Convict in a New York Poni- tentiary.

Come on; Ill fix you,” he added to the invisibie | enemy. Constable Woods grappled with the man and succeeded in hanacuffing him. Woods turned Cude over to Officer Walsh | and tben maae a search of the premises. He found Russell lving about ten feei from where Cude had stood. He was groaning with pain. Russell was taken | to the town hall, -vhere it was found that he was shot through the body, the bullet | entering his right breast near the nibple, ranging downward, passing through the liver, and lodging under the skin under the right shoulder. Russell suffered intense pain all day | and died at5 o'clock this afternoon. Be- fore dying he made a statement to the District Attorney to the effect that Cuae | had been drinking heavily and had been very quarrelsome.
