Papers Relating to the Foreign Relations of the United States, With the Annual Message of the President Transmitted to Congress December 5, 1898

Mr. Woodford to the President.

[Telegram.]

Madrid, March 29, 1898.

No. 60. Have had conference this afternoon, Tuesday, with the president of the council, the minister for foreign affairs, and minister for colonies. Conference adjourned until Thursday afternoon, March 31. I have sincere belief that arrangement will then be reached, honorable to Spain and satisfactory to the United States, and just to Cuba. I beg you to withhold all action until you receive my report of such conference, which I will send Thursday night, March 31.

Woodford.
