Woodford’s Instructions on Spain Policy to New Ministers
General Woodford, appointed minister to Spain, has five preliminary instructions for reporting to Madrid on ending the Cuban war. The President will measure Spain’s response to his diplomacy, with possible action if Spain resists. Woodford is to inform Madrid our commerce suffered and the United States may take steps beyond diplomacy if needed. The minister will return home soon to prepare his formal report.

Cuban Trade Trends Seen From 19th Century Outlook
A deterioration in Cuban trade is outlined by the foreign trade section of the Agricultural Department. Secretary Wilbur charted a sharp decline in U S Cuban trade values, with total yearly trade dropping from 102 million in 1883 to under 20 million in 1897. Projections suggest 1897 fiscal year totals will barely reach 20 million, well below earlier values.
