.SAGASTA FOR PEACE,
But General WeyIer Declares in
Favor Of the Monarchy.
PERFECT CONFIDENCE IN sAGAsTA.
While There Is "a Prospect of Terminal
ing the War the Premier Will
Hold On.

Madrid The much-talked feature
OF the moment, when all are asking
what will come next, is General Wey-
ler's declaration in favor of the mon
archy. This may have much 20 do
with the greater feeling OF calm. The
existence of Cabinet crisis is denied
by Senior Sagasta with absolute good
faith. lie further added that at the
council held recently the prospects OF
war and not conditions of peace were
discussed.
The truth is that everything depends
on the result of affairs at Santiago.
Sagasta will not lush crisis, being
aware Of the difficulties of reforming
the Ministry and establishing govern
ment TO meet the situation. One fea-
ture is the perfect confidence OF the
public in Sagasta. His latest state
ment is that rumors Of peace ncgotia'
tions are premature.
The Premier wants peace. He feels
assured that the country both wants
and needs .peaee. lie knows that
peace made without the consent OF the
country would mean an immediate re-
volution. Should the country show
itself strongly against the Primeh Min
ister's peaceful wishes, you may count
upon ii that Senior Sagasta will wish tC
