of the Alanca affair. ActIng Secretary Uhl

of nny such precipitate action , In the absence
of a knowledge of the ( facts have been com-
municated , to the Spanish minister here
which wool certainly be the case It usual
diplounatic amenltls were observed , even If
such a message had been sent to the Spanish
overment directly through United States
MInister Tnylor at Madrid , the story failed
to find much credence.
Seuor Marala. the Spanish minister , has
not ns yet received word from Cuba as to
