HntefteFe, but DO NOf.
LONDON. April 2s.-In an editorial under tho
caption Of THE American Crete" the National
RerieD will tomorrow say that no comparison
can be made between Cuba and Crete. There is
more suffering. 1t adds, in Cuba than there is In
Crete. Spain has demonstrated her incapacity to
suodue the insurrection in Cuba, and has thereby
forfeited her moral right TO hold the island.
The United States have a perfectly free hand to
suppress the scandal at their very doors, in
which. the Rerier declares. no other nation has
any right to interfere; but the American Gov
eminent does not attempt to intervene.
In conclusion the Rerier says that the Ameri-
cans are the best Judges of their own interests,
but under the circumstances some charity
should temper their on the "infamy
of the European policy In tho East"
