Special Dispatch to THE CALL

NEW YORK, n. Y, Oct. 10-A World
ca bic from Madrid says: With the ex-
ception of Conservatives and Republi-
cans, who persist in counting a Weyler
majority, the press ana public opinion
approve the new Government for gazetting
to-day DEGREES recalling Weyler and ap-
pointing Marshal Blanco as Governor OF
Cuba. So determined was the Cabinets
act in vigorously directing the council OF
Ministers to approve the foregoing de-
crees that Count Xiauena. Minister of
Public Works, carried them to the palace
and the Queen got up from dinner to sign
them. The Minister of War telegraphed
the Transatlantic Company to postpone
the departure of the mail steamer to allow
Blanco to EN- bark Tuesday with a numer-
Gus staff. Six generals, able officers who
served under Marshal Campos in the early
part of the present war and &c, 600 men as
re.enforcements will follow in November.
The Minister of War also teIegraphed
Weyle- 10 embark Immediately after
handing the command to the Marquis
Ahumada or General Linares All the
high civil officials and principal lieuten-
ants of WeyieS will be replaced promptly.
The Government telegraphed to cease in
stantly seventies and ali gorous meth
DDS of warfare practiced hitherto. Blanco
is not expected to be in position to form
a correct estimate of the situation or sug-
gest the best course to follow for leading
up to pacification. He will begin the re-
form policy before the middle of Novem-
ber, and military operations will continue,
directly fine weather permits, against the
insurgents if they are not disposed to sub
NIT on hearing of the conte mplated re-
form and reversal of the policy OF the
last two years. The Government has re-
ceived unfavorable intelligence of re-
vival of the lnsurrecsion in the Philippine
Islands, which is serious in four provinces
Several hlibustering expeditions from
China and Japan landed arms and war
stores at various parts of the coast. Con-
siderable re-enforcements will have to be
sent TO Manila before the fine season,
wren the rebels are likely to resume the
offensive. Because the present Governor,
Marshal Rivera, sent home half the Euro
pean force, believing the rebellion sub
dued, Marshal Campos declined to go to
the Philippines. His presence in Spain
is more necessary if eventualities in the
colonial war make military dictature
necessary.
HAVANA, CUBA, Oct. TO- - General
Weyler has issued a de cree allowing the
return TO the island of Senior Gonzales
Lanuza, Judge of the Supreme Court of
Havana and a professor in the university;
DR.. Emilano Nunez, well-known lawyer;
Alfredo Zayas, Adolfo Diaz, Ignacio La
mas Manuel Castro Polomlno, Juan En-
senat Adolfo de la Cueva, Miguel Ferro
and 121 others who had been deported.
LONDON, ENG, Oct. 1.-THE Times,
commenting edItorlally this morning on
the Cuban question, says: If Senior Sa-
gasta fails to adopt bold reform policy in
Cuba likely to disarm American lingoism,
1t might turn out to have been wiser TO
have left General Weyler 10 finish the
war in his own fashion.
The Standard, after asking why General
Weyler is recalled, if it is intended to con-
tinue the campaign, says: 1t seems only
too plain that Senior Sagasta's course
hardly deserves the name of policy. 1t is
almost a device for parrylng Americas
i'm Fortunate questions. We suspect that
General Woodford presented something
very like an ultimatum, and that but for
American pressure, nothing would have
been heard of autonomy. We doubt that
Cuban settlements is made nearer. There
will be more fighting and more negotia-
ton. On the other Lana Ihs Washington
Cabinet has need to be circumspect
Spain has only Cuba and honor lett, and
any open interference with her rights
over Cuba would kindle fire of res s,nt.
ment in which all talk oil autonomy would
disappear and the struggle attain wider
dimensions.
The Morning Post. in an editorial to-
day, accuses the American jingoes of
