az the same time promise to Cuba and
us inhabitants an opportunity to enjoy
the blessings of peace. y 80
AS to the inference contained in the
message that the Cuban government has
now given up all effort to exercise its
functions, Mr.. Palma cites recent acts of
zen. Gomez in ful6llment of orders to
prove that the civil government of the
republic commands the respect and obed-
renee of the military authorities.
Gen. Palma says it is idle to talk of
autonomy for the Cubans, and SAYS:
They have framed constitution for a
sovereign nation"
me atrocities practiced by the Spanish
III the present war, he continues, have
deepened 70 such an extent the political
ABYSS rent between Cuba and Spain that
1t Is impossible to fill it up with any sort
OF scheme which does not affirm the abso-
lutte independence of the Cuban people.
Cuba has decided to get rid forever of the
Spanish rule and her people count neither
their enemies nor the many patriots who
daily succumb to the struggle. They go
ON, confident in the justice of their cause,
the hrmness of their resolution and the
protection of God. They realize, of
course, that they are in the very center of
free America, left alone to themselves.
without hand Outstretched to them, but
far from being discouraged they feel CON
WINGED of their ultimate success.

JOHN r. FELLOWS VERY LOW.
Physicians DO Not Think He VIII Sur
vive Through the Night.

New York. Dec. 5.-District Attorney
John X. Fellows lies at the point of
death at his home in this city. His
family have given up hope. The patient
is very weak. At one time during he
night his physicians thought the end was
very near.
There was no change in Col. Fellows
condition at noon. He was still con-
scious. His family now entertain
hopes that his excellent constitution will
pull him through. A most distressing
hiccough accompanies the disease, gas
tritis, and aggrayates the suffering of
the patient.
Col. Fellows rallied little shortly after
noon, but toward night it was announced
by the attending physicians that he was
growing worse and that there was but
slight hope Of his living through the
night
The physicians in attendance made the
following statement today:
"Col. Fellows is suffering from a
fibrous tumor in the stomach. 1t is an
liberated, cancerous growth, which has
been developing for some time. Col
Fellows has a high fever and is de-
lirious at times. His heart is giving
out and the chances are that he will
not see Sunday morning."

SPANISH COMMENT.

Madrid, Dec. S.-President Clcyelands
message caused depression on the
bourse, and the newspapers, especially
those Of the opposition and the indepen-
dent organs, expressed the greatest ilri-
tation at Americas interference as Il
humiliation for Spain. The government
organs are more reserved in their tone,
and they even express some satisfaction
at the unexpected moderation which
President Cleveland has shown. Ac-
cording to the Heraldo the cabinet will
the message The Military Correspon-
dence, the organ of the army says that
Spain will be more than strong enough
to punish an interference by the United
States with their affairs. Other news
papers characterize the message as pro-
yoking not only Spain, but the whole of
Europe.

while the rebels want independence or
American annexation.
President Cleveland risks displeasing
every body.
The Venezuela arrangement, however
giving the expected extension to Monroe
ism, is a triumph for Cleveland.
The Journal des de Bats says: The
message is such that Spain can only be
grateful to President Cleveland for Civ
ing, her an opportunity to quell the re-
bellion.

GERMAN PRESS COMMENT.

Berlin, Dec. S.-The Cologne Gazette,
discussing President Cleveland's message,
says:
President Cleveland has not allowed
himself to be carried away by the prevail
ing opinions of Americans. What he sug-
gests is perfectly correct and compatible
with the honor of Spain. May the presi-
dents well-meant proposals meet with
approval in Madrid.
Before there is a change of government
in the United States, perhaps with this
favorable situation, there may he an
agreement with the powerful United
States which will pacify Cuba.

Paris, Dec S.-The Temps says that
President Cleveland's message "worthily
crowns his International administration,
which bore the stamp of HONOR and
adds:
The reference to Cuba, however. will
satisfy neither side, and we doubt the
efficacy of his offer to guarantee the
autonomy of Cuba. Spain will not think
of agreeing to an agreement making the
United States a sovereign power in Cuba,
