ANGRY DISCUSSION BETWEEN U. S.
MINISTER SICKLES AND SPAN
ISH MINISTRY—SPAIN
STUBBORN AND
DEFIANT.
MOB VIOLENCE OFFERED TO THE
AMERICAN LEGATION
IN SPAIN.
New York, November 21.—A Herald
special dated Madrid, 20th instant, eays the
situation is grave. There is a serious misun-
deretanding between Sickles and the Spanish
Cabinet.
On the arrival of the news of the capture
of the Virginias, President Castelar called at
the United States Legation, expressed his re
gret and ordered a suspension of sentence.
When Secretary Fish telegraphed the news
of the executions, Gen. Sickles sent a note at
two o'clock in the morning, denanding a
stay. The Foreign Secretary answered,
questioning the accuracy of the information,
and intimated that Gen. Sickles’ action was
not authorized. Thereupon Sickles, in the
name of the United States, addressed a form
al protest against the inhuman
butchery, and the insult to the
the Untied States again demanded that Spain
should enforce obedience to the orders in
Cuba, and insisted on the rights of the Amer
icans to trial under the treaty of 1795. He
complained that the American Consul at
Santiago was prevented from using the tele
graph to Washington.
The Spanish Secretary answered, that the
matter was wholly a municipal affair be-
tween Spain and the Virginius pirates. Spain the navy had to t,ke the active initiatory,
could not tolerate American inteiference.
Washington, November 21.—The city is
excited over the probabilities of war with
Spain. Rumors of all kinds are circu'ated,
adding to the interest of the situation. These,
however, found no official confirmation be
yond the news te’egraphed at noon.
The 8tate Department is investigating
the real status of the Virginius.
The Treasury Department, Navigation Di
vision, finds no reason to believe that any ir
regularity exists in the Virginius papers.
This fact was communicated to the Secretary
of State by the Secretary of the Treasury,
and received attention at the Cabinet to-day.
Copies of all the papers were submitted.
The session of the Cabinet opened earlier
than usual and continued until four o’clock.
All the Secretaries present. The longest ses-
session during Grant’s administration.
Subsequently Fish and Robeson had a con
ference. The whole time of the session was
occupied with the Virginius matter, and the
attending complications. The members are
dumb regarding the details of the proposed
action. The feeling which urged the attack
upon the American legation was character
ized as brutal and unreasonable. It really
seemed that no reasonable ministry could
stand at Madrid. There is increased naval
activity. A naval recruiting office ordered to
open at New Orleans.
Washington, November 21.—It is still
unlikely that other than precautionary
measures will be taken until Congress acts.
While the President seems to oe in accord with
the indignant feelings of the people,
he will do nothing to place the country in a
false position before the world. A leading
Senator who had a conversation with the
President to-day, has no doubt that when
Congress meets the public will be satisfied
that prudence combined with a due regard
to our National honor, has been observed by
the Executive Department of the Govern
ment.
Havana, November 21.—Santiago advices
of the 10th says nothing important has
transpired since the 12th, except the sailing
of the Virginius for Havan.*.
Washington, November 22.—It seems
not to be generally known that there have
been preparations quietly going on under the
direction of the Secretary of War, placing
our arsenals in a condition to supply the
wants of at army in the field in
case of war, and looking to the condition of
the armament or our fortifications for the
successful defense of of onr harbors against
h hostile attack by iron-ciads. The ordinance
department of ihc army is at this mo
ment in a most active preparation
for a State of war, and is ready to supply
an army with entire equipment of war mate
rial. including the most approved breech
loading arms and field and siege batteries of
artillery, with every kind of ammu
nition. The telegraph has been
vigorously nscd.urging forward every prepa
ration to the extent of ordnance appropria
tions, and the ordinance officers are fully
alive to the gravity of the occasion,
and to the necessity for ample
preparation to meet all demands should
war be the result of our present complica
tions. While from the nature of the case

a'Mranting fbft 9p>"
jr of jibe Cabinet to
cMmi exec htlons.
s *The Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs
haughtily declined to permit Gen. Sickles
to discuss the municipal affairs of Cubs.
The interview terminated angrily, Sickles
saying ne would hold no more persoual,
only official relations with the minister.
Public feeliDg runs high. The Spaniards
blame the United States for Cuban insur
rection, and say they will welcome
war. Minister Sickles does not see how war
can be avoided, as Spain will concede noth
ing, and public opinion will prevent Presi
dent Castellar from making any concessions.
There is no use in the United States trifling
any more on the subject, the Spanish stub-
bomess making concessions impossible. The
extreme Republicans favor the views of the
United States in the affair.
THE LAST CUBAN SEIZURES.
New York, November 21.—Officers of the
City of New York give the names of pas
sengers by the Spaniards. Mrs. Amitala de
Monti, a widow, and her child. Ricbarda
Lancia and entire family, consisting of three
children, and Dona Catalina Parez. Noth
ing suspicions was found in the clothing of
the women or children. All were discharged
except Lands. Two hundred persons have
been captured implicated by correspondence.
No executions when the York left.
THE OFFICIAL NEWS AT WASHINGTON
Washington, November 21.—The dis
patches received by the Secretary of State
are confirmations in part of the special tele
grams from Madrid in regard to the demon
strations against Minister Sickles, though the
Secretary is of the opinion that the specials
are somewhat exaggerated. The mob which
collected in front of the American Legation
was promptly dispersed by the Government,
and there is no doubt here in official circles
but that the authorities at Madrid are capable
of preventing any outbreak.
The position of Minister Sickles is very
uncomfortable, but it is not believed that
any violence will be suffered. Air. Sickles
telegraphs that the/3panish officials arejequal
to the emergency. .
Minister Sickles is hourly in communica
tion with the State Department and his dis
patches indicate the existence of a very
strong feeling against the United States.
Mr. Fish submitted a number of telegrams
from Alinister Sickles to the Cabinet to-day
and the session which has jnst commenced
will, in all probability, be one of the most in
teresting and serious meetings since the com
mencement of the present complications.
Members of the Cabinet this morning seem
to be very serious in their demeanor, and
there appears to be a more extended
discussion in all places .as to the
probabilities of war than Has yet been
noticed. At the same time, so far as has
been made known, the official advices from
Spain have not varied in the assertions of
the honesty of theCastelar government to
preserve friendly relations, and to command
calmness and dignity during the progress of
negotiations. , , „ .
The excitement of the populace In Alad-
rid does not seem to be spared by the gov
ernment there, as is evidenced by the ex
pressed opinion of the Secretary of State
here, that there is an exaggeration in the
unofficial reports and the associations of Mr.
Sickles that the Spanish government is able
and has suppressed hostile indicationsbgainst
the American legation at Madrid.
The Secretary of the Navy returned to this
city this morning, and wa3 at the Depart
ment, at a very early hour. A large number
of naval officers have been ordered to duty
to-day, to the ships of heavy ordinance now
being fitted out for immediate active service.
Naval recruitiag offices has been ordered to
be opened at New Orleans.
Augusta, November 21.—Hon. A. H.
Stephens leaves for Washington tomorrow.
HeWs: “I am for Cuba immediately, if not
sooner.” He thinks the movement to take
Cuba would produce * good feeling between
the North and South.
the war department is tojini rrisis
Lond< : , November 22.—Sbectala argue
that the recent interview between Castellar
and Sickles was stormy. Sickles barely es
caped mobbing.
Madrid, November 22.—Under arrange
ments of the British Minister, Gen. Sickles
has stopped the preparations he was making
to leave Madrid.
German sympathy for cuba.
New York, November 22.—Four thou
sand Germans at Germania Hall last night,
expressed sympathy for Cuba,'and a vigorous
policy towards Spain.
The following are the resolutions adopted
at the German Caban Meeting last night,
which it is intended to lay before Congress
at the opening session.
“Whereas, The people of Cuba are not
only in the same, but in a much worse con
dition than the people of the United 8tates
were at the time of the declaration of their
independence, the Spanish government,
allowing, under the barbarous rule of so-called
Spanish volunteers, the perpetration of the
most teirible cruelties and outrageous deeds
of violence toward the inhabitants of the
Isle of Cuba, in defiance of humanity and
civilize tion; and
Whereas, These barbarians, who it ap
pears arc independent of the Spanish Gov
ernment, trample alike upon the laws and
usages of humanity and civilization, insnlt
onr flag on the open sea and incarcerate and
murder onr cousins; therefore be it
Resolved, That we ask the Government of
the United States and Congress in the name
of humanity and civilization, and to the end
that a stop may be put to the barbarities in
Cuba, and to prevent their repetition, and to
accord to the Cubans now fighting for their
independence, the rights of belligerents, and
as soon as possible to acknowledge Cnba’a
fieA republic.
Resolved, That we farther ask the gov
eminent and Congress of the United States
to demand of the Spanish Government in
Madrid, as well.as of the acting authorities
of Cuba, full satisfaction for the insult to
onr flag and the cruelties committed by
Cuban volunteers and to enforce these de
mands with all the means in their power.

Worn to a Shadow.—Flesh, muscle ancf
mind alike deteriorate when the stomach fal
ters in its duty and the bowels do not per
form their part as scavengers of the system
regularly and natural ly. In chronic dyspep
sia the body is usually emaciated, and the
muscular fibre loose and flabby, and the brain
incapable of prolonged or vigorous exertion.
Every organ, every member, even the im
mortal mind itself, is to a certain extent de
pendent upon the stomach for support.
Strengthen and regulate this feeder of the
system with Hostetler’s Stomach Bitters,
when it fails to perform its functions proper
ly. A good appetite, an increased flow of the
S ' ' 1 juice, and perfect digestion and assim-
will assuredly be the result. The
manner in which, the great tonic and altera
tive effects a care of dyspepsia is direct and
simple. It stimulates the digestive organs,
cleanses without convulsing the bowels, reg
ulates tbe flow ofbile and determines it into
the light channels, and exercises a tranquil*
izing influence over the nerves.
