SITUATION IN SPAIN. NO ULTIMATUM A? VET FROM UNCLE SAM. Minister Woodford'* Instmetlnus Too lain So Til rents—Thr Spanish «Jo» ernmrnt to II* Impressed With the Necessity nf a Cassation of Hostilities. No Threats Hata Been Mad*. Washiwotow. Sept 23.—The admin istration haa been Informed by cable in the fullest detail by United State* MlnUtcr Woodford of the conference held with the Duke of Tetuaii, Spac l*h minister of foreign affair*. There U nothing In Minister Woodford's dis patch to liear out In the slightest de gree the report* that the American minister ha* presented uri ultimatum to Spain declaring that If war In Cuba I* not terminated by the end of October the United State* would feel justified In taking measure* to secure the In dependence of Cuba Minister Woodford, in the course of hi* Interview, which was preliminary In it* nature, lain the foundation for the fuller preeentstion of the protest of the United States, whioh he will make to the Spanish court, when It ahalt re more In October from San Sabastaln to Madrid He will then earnestly, but courteously, Insist that the failure of Spain to terminate the war In Cuba haa become a r-ourceof great solicitude to this country, and which, on account of tha enormous American Interests involved, make* it Imperative that the United States should tender its offices to secure a termination of the war If possinie, upon a nasi* inai win pruvr satisfactary to Spain. Minister Woodford'* instructions, which wilt lie communicated in fall shortly, contain no threat against the Spanish government. They certainly are not In the nature of an ultimatum, which would mean war, aud they go but little If any farther than the po sition assumed by Secretary Olney In hie report of less than a year ago. Secretary Sherman believes that the time ha* arrived when Spain must make such concessions as will close the war. and Minister Woodford has been instructed to earnestly pres* upon the Spanish government the In terest of the United State* in assist ing to secure such a cessation of hos tilities The prospects are for a change of ministry in Spain and for a cabinet under liberal auspice*, headed by Senor Sogasta. Maiihiii, Sept. '13. — It is learned upon high authority that the much discussed Interview of last Saturday between United Htate* minister to Spain, General Sic wart L. Woodford, and the Spanish minister for foreign affairs, the Duke of Tctuan, were merely preliminary. General Woodford stated to the duke the gravity of the condition of Cuba and requested in behalf of the United States, that Spain would find a method of speedily ending the war und giving justice to the Cuban*. He offered the good offices of the United States in effecting a settlement of the Cuban troubles, which practleatly gives Spain an opportunity of grace fully ending the war. If she does not embrace It within a reasonable time, notice will be given that the United States mutt interfere, thougli General Woodford has not said so yet Spain cannot expect the aid of Kuropean powers, as the United States ambassadors have asccitainod that ail the Kuropean countries, except Aus tria, recognize that the interest* of the United Slates justify the latter's interference in Cuba. Austria in tills matter, is influenced by the relationship lie tween the two dynasties, the queen ragout of Spain being an Austrian urcliduciiess, but it is not likely that Austria will take any part in the question beyond |>o*sibly making a diplomatic prote.st against the inter vention of the United States.

Tim new law provided that, after July 0, 1SU7, the sale of tehtiol lands should cease.

The office of the bureau of lalstr sta tistics had collected from the county officers of the state reeordsof the mort gaged indebtedness, showing the new mortgages filed and the releases en tered during the first six months of the year l*i»7. This record shows the, mortgages In three classes, those- on farm property, those on elty rcul es tate, uml those on chattels. The rec ord is complete on farm mortgages tiled from all the counties of the state, ex cept Arthur, II,-inner nod Grant, In the oftlce of the register of deeds the sales under foreclosure are entered and when the district court clerk certi fies that a mortgage has been foreclosed it is counted us a mortgage released. Thus the reduction of mortgage Indebt edness has these foreclosures included in the gross sum. .Several of the counties, including tbe large ones of Douglas, Dam aster. Gage and Cass, with others, have not re ported the amount of these mortgages foreclosed. There are twenty-six of these counties not reporting this Item, and Chief Clerk Kdgertou lias estimated by a system which proves to lie approx imately correct, the amount, of fore closures lu these counties. All counties report tin; number of foreclosures on both farm lauds uml city and town lots. The six months' record shows that, the farm mortgages tiled arc less than the farm mortgages released in the amount of 9954,306.14, uml that the foreclosures on farm motgages amount ed to 81,.'DO.l's.iitl. The total number of farm mortgages Hied during tbe six months was 0.589, uml the totul num ber released, w hether by foreclosure or otherwise, was M.oot.
