MADRID April 14.-The indignation oi
Tho Spanish people at the stealing by th'
government OF the elections last Sunday
when the most disgraceful tactics werI
'bunglingly employed, has reached poin
that causes deep uneasinoss.
Indeed the condition now existing ha,
recalled to many the state OF the poopl,
just before the revolution OF 1865 anc
grave fears are expressed everywhere as tC
the final outcome.
1t is no secret that even the government
Is seriously alarmed. for it is known that
precautions have been taken against an
outbreak, which hourly grows moro and
moro imminent.
The expressions of Indignation are by
no means confined to private. but abound
in the press as well. The tone of all the
papers is exceedingly violent. Where con.
demnation is not openly INDUCED IN, an
nnderourrent Of disapproval Is apparent.
Newspapers like Tho Correo, Tho I'm.
parcial, The Correspondence and Tho Lib.
eral call II national scandal, which may
make IL the last election under the pres.
ent institutions.
The result is precisely what was expect.
cd The Conservative cabinet has com.
pact, disciplined majority in the chamber
of deputies Of over 300-Conservatives,
Protectionists and ultra. Catholics-all dc.
voted to Premier Canovas and ready to dc.
fend his policy at homo and in the colo
mics.
The authorities resorted TO unusual pres.
sure and Interference both in Madrid and
In the provinces TO secure the triumph of
official candidates and to elect just enough
from each group OF the opposition TO keeI
up tho appearance Of constitutional par
liamentary government.
Hostile TO Reforms In Cuba.
There will bo I'm the next chamber OF
43l deputies 79 Liberals, Carlists, 4 III
tramontanos, Dissentient Conservative
and 3 Federals from constituencies In
Spain. Forty-two roactionary deputies
Will como from Cuba and Puerto Rico The
Autonomists and Reformists of those Is
lands staid away from the polls, as the
majority of the Republicans and more
than half the Spanish electorate did In
Spain.
Spain seldom has had house Of depu-
uco Nith ~ tiehb u ilHloflty WnOho pOilll
cal and protectionlst inolinations make
them hostileto reforms in Cuba and Puerto
Rico.
Senior Romero Robledo was really the
chief promptor in the election from behind
tho scenes OF Spanish politics.
Tho best illustration Of tho situation Is
In Madrid, whore the Conservatives and
liberals ooalesced to take advantage of
the stay at home Republicans with a view
70 defeating tho Marquis OF Cabrinana,
whose courageous denunciations of the
Madrid municipal administration led tc
tho recent public exposure Of long stand.
ing abuses and peculntion and to tho pros
ecution Of lS aldermen. Several of those
aldermen, by the way, were elected yester
day as official candidates with tho open
support Of the authorities.
In the provincial constituencies were
exerted the same influences, cloverly ar
ranged by Romero Robledo, which caused
the Marquis OF Cabrinana to fall In Mad
rid, though supported by the whole bour
geoise, the commercial and industrial
clnsses and a majority Of the press.
