Secret Negotiations Are Proceeding BE-
tween France and Spain.
London, March 2.-The correspondent
of the Pail Mall Gazette at Madrid in
dispatch to that paper says that, al
though the government of Spain recog-
nizes the absolute independence of the
United States, it Is the intention of
Premier Canovas. del Castillo to point
out to the Washington government the
injustice of the language employed by
some OF the senators in the debate on
the Cuban resolutions attributing arbi-
trary cruelties to the authorities in
Cuba.
The premier will contend that the
pretentions Of the rebels are ridiculous
and that their savagery merits the
condemnation of all civilized nations.
He will also show that instead of con-
Quoting legitimate warfare the rebels
burn, rob and murder on all sides and
upon every occasion flee before the
Spanish regular troops without at
tempting to hold possession of a town
or even a mountain pass and that they,
therefore, ought not to be regarded as
upon an equality with the regular sol
diers of the Spanish army.
The News commenting on the action
OF the senate in passing the resolutions
giving to the insurgents in Cuba the
rights Of belligerents says that Presf-
dent Cleveland ought not to act hastily
for many reasons. Should the United
States recognize the CubanS as bellig-
erents the result would almost certainly
be war between Spain and America.
The issue of such conflict, however,
could not be doubtful, should the
Americans go into it with their whole
heart, but this they probably would
not do, as the war would involve Meth
er the national security nor honor.
General Campos believed that recognl-
ton of the Cubans would be blessing
in disguise, because should the United
States send troops to Cuba there would
be regular battles in place of desultory
fighting, which has thus far marked
the campaign in the island.
The entire army, navy and militia
forces of the United States, accordins
to Senor Emilio Costelar, would not
be adequate to the success of such an
enterprise. "An alliance between Spain
and Mexico with the object of counter
acting the designs of the United States
has been recommended by Premier Ca
novas del Castillo the News says.
"but such an alliance might be antici-
pated by pact between Cuba and Mex
leo, though the latter is not at present
favorable to the suggestion"
