IN Inc Spanish Parliament.

Those interested in the Cuban strug-
gle will find it more to the purpose Tor
the present to carefully watch the
trend of events in Spain, rather than
to devote their attention to CUBA
where little is being done. AS far as
our congress Is concerned 1t has done
all it will upon the matter for the pres
ent. The Morgan resolution has gone
to the House committee on rules, where
a convenient pigeon hole awaited it.
In the Spanish parliament every day
is likely to bring forth very important
stroke. The Liberals are remaining
away from the sessions and declare
their intention to continue to do so I'M
til the Duke of Tetuan resigns. Some
of the Conservatives also insist upon
that resignation. The Conservatives
responsible for the government are
left unable to pass necessary laws to
provide revenue and seriously propose
to violate precedent and law by going
ahead with legislation as if they had
the authority. In this event there Is
likely to be revolution. The spirit of
animosity between the factions is ex-
tremely bitter and but for the common
danger Cuba affords an eruption would
likely have occurred before now.
