FniIcd to Pncify Cuba.
MADRID, May 19.-At meeting of lib
eral senator's and deputies today Senior Sc
gasta, former premier, made an important
speech, in the course of which he said
We have 100000 troops In Cuba, but we
are not even masters OF the territory trod-
den by our soldiers. At the same moment
Carlism is organizing itself in the peninsula
and menaceS us with a new war, thanks to
the immunity 1t enjoys, while the seeds of
separatism are terminating In some of the
colonies. The picture could not be gloomter.
We have war in Cuba and in the Philip
pines, and we have attempts at war at
home. The government is not resnonsib @
for them. but it is unfortunate in its ad-
ministration. Reforms in Cuba will not
solve the Cuban question.
Senior Segasta severely criticised the ac-
tion of the government In financial, political
and other emergencies and said:
1t is in this way that new conflict has
arisen with the United States. We wish to
know what has become of. the S600000 Of
the former loan since IS 009 $50 are st II due

has been solved and there has only been
face of this situation the liberal party has
decided to break the truce it has accorded
to the government during the last two
years The government has existed until
now because of the complacenee of the lib
erals Henceforth the Liberals will throw
all responsibility upon the government.
The speech, which was greatly applauded
portends stormy sittings for both chambers

Admits that His Nation Has Suffered

CONSTANTlNOPLE, May 19-An Official
of the Turkish foreign Office in an interview
today, after dwelling upon the provocative
attitude of Greece and the earnest efforts
made by Turkey to prevent war, said:
During the months war Turkey has suf-
fered serious loss in life and money and the
peace conditions, put forward cannot but be
Iegarded as moderate and wholly justified.
Msyertheless r1 ths u, Is possibly
the indemnity and the cession of Thessaly
in view of the bankrupt condition of Greece
In regard to the abolti5n of the capitula-
ton In favor of Greek subjects In Turkey,
1t is imrossble for the government in the
ifications. Even Servia and Roumania, in
every sense the superiors of Greece, have
be allowed to retain exceptional rights
which she has so scandalously abused. 1t
is confidently hoped therefore, that Europe
Will have sufficient sense of justice not to
press Turkey. Upon this point she is de-
termined not to yield and should Europe at
tempt to impose such a sacrifice by force
of arms the situation created would be most
detrimental to Greek peace. The Turkish
population would Inevitably become excited
not hold itself responsible for the grave
consequences which wouid follow and the
pIore deeply the result of such actions.
Tho telegram of the czar appealing to the
sultan to cease hostilities against Greece,
which was couched in the mcst friendly
terms, Is regarded as being very significant
as showing the pacific intentions of the czar,
while it is also politically important in the
line of checking German influence at the
Yildiz kiosk which influence has considera-
bly, increased since the outbreak OF the war
with Greece. The action of the czar has had
marked impression upon thu Turkish gov
ernment, which is already showing a more
conciliatory disposition, promising the con-
cluson of an equitable peace.
An official statement was published this
evening, which after briefly reciting the
Turkish side OF the war up to the battle of
Domokos. says:
The cZar sent the sultan a telegram eX-
pressing his sincere sentiments in reafiirm-
ing the pacific views of the powers and not
ing with appreciation the success of the inn
Derial troops in the capture of Domokos,
forming the natural limit of the defensive
operations, and the government being de-
sirous of giving fresh PROOF of it's pacific in
tention, the cabinet decided, and its decision
was confirmed by an trade, to cease hostil-
tiles upon conditions to be arranged by the
respective commanders The conditions OF
peace following the armistice will assure
the future rights and dignity of the i'm
perial government, the frontiers of Turkey
and the preservation of general peace.

year-old messenger boy of the Boylston Ma
tional bank, is missing, together with about
$4,000 in cash and a $4,000 United States
certificate not negotiable except between
banks King started for the clearing house

mended and his honesty was never ques-
toned. He lived with his father who is
employed by the South End National bank.
When young King left the bank this morn

lect $4,000, which he was to carry to the
