an act of profound wisdom, an act
which L personally should always re-
tain in remembrance.
Il beg your majesty to believe in
my unchanged friendship.

Almost Certain to Be X ecalIed From Gu
ba-Campos in Madrid.
New YORK, June IA special to the
Journal from Madrid says:
The recall of Capt. Gen. Weyler
from Cuba is almost certain, as the
liberals have decided to take this step
if Sagasta assumes office. Senior Pidal,
president of the cortes, Saturday ad-
vised the queen regent to reform the
conservative cabinet in the direction
OF honestly implanting reforms in Gu
ba, recalling Weyler and sending Cam
pos to the island.
Campos himself advised the queen
not to form an intermediate cabinet,
but to trust the government to the
party which offers the best and most
definite solution for Cuba, and one
which is most calculated to insure
good relations with the United States,
while being consistent with national
dignity.
In addition, according to the Cor
respondencia de Espana, he advised
the queen to recall Weyler.
