increased In number as the day wore on. The
police, however. compelled them to remove
the wreaths, as such a demonstration Ia con-
trary to law. The crowd, which was at one
time very large. obeyed, and then with I'M
covered heads they repeated the Collect re-
ferring to tho so.called "martyred SOW
ereign." Then the "legitimists' offered up
prayers for the dead king; but, when the de-
monstration began TO attract too mucn atten-

We also at that time had troubles OF our
own in the south. The acson OF our gov
eminent was, he says, In striking con-
trast 10 that OF Spain In recognizing the
Confederates rs belligercnts. Mr.. Cam
eron also refers to other revolutions dur
ing which our government was on the
point OF intervening.
"The incest sense of International re-
quirements." he says, ''cannot fail to per-
ceivo hat provocation from Spain was
overlooked by our governmental for a longer
period and with greater patience than any
her government of equal power would
have tolerated"
After quoting Mt length tho report made
by General Campos in 1879, Mr.. Cameron
saysi 1.-THE highest Spanish authorities
have been obliged to confess TINT the
grievances Of the Cubans are just and
their aspirations for liberty Legitimate =
He says the Spanish government I'm Cuba
Is an armed monarchy. ''The danger ana
the scandal OF the Cuban situation. F." he
says, "havc been such as can be compared
with nothing b 40 condition OF Ar
menia."
He asserts that n state OF war exists,
and that with that alone we have TO deal.
1.-THE precedents for recognition are, ne
says, "%clear, and II our action were TO be
decided by precedent alone we should not
be able to hesitate" He asserts that the
insurgents have made q record which en-
titles them to recognition, and adds:
'If the government Of the United
States still rcfrains from recognizing the
belligerency Of the insurgents after this
conclusive proof OF the fact, the reason,
doubtless, was that, In the absence OF legal
complications, the question becomes
wholly political, and that its true solu-
ton must lie not in recognition Of bellig-
erency, but In a recognition Of indcpend.
ence.'
He says, In conclusion, that he is conf
dent that no other action accords with
our friendly relations with Spain, our
just sympathy with Cuba and with our
dignity and consistency.
