WHAT SPAIN OEEERs.
Limited Autonomy, II Cuba VIII subml
Uncle sam as Mediator.

Limited Autonomy, II CubafW Will Submit
Uncle Sam Iediator.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 90. 1T has been
learned from an authoritative source
that Secretary Olney and Senor Dupuy
de LONE, the Spanish minister, have
practically terminated the negotia-
tions on the Cuban question:. which
are to be submitted to congress when
it convenes on January s. The terms
of the agreement are lased on the re-
cent official communication from
Premier Canovas, addressed to the sec
retary of state.
Premier Canovas says Spain cannot,
of course, as self-respecting nd re-
spected nation, stand before the world
as having been coerced into measures
by the United States. She has freely
granted all she now offers, and that in
the face of a rebellion. But she accepts
the good offices of the United States to
act as mediator aud to guarantee to
the insurgents amnesty and the en-
forcement of the new reform law
which she is about to proclaim in
Cuba. The form of government Of
fered is, the Spanish statesman de-
clares, the limit of independence
which can be granted to-
province by any nation without abso-
lutely severing the bond of union with
the mother country. Autonomy, as
enjoyed by the Canadians, can never
be granted in Cuba. What Spain is
willing to grant the insurgents, if they
lay down their arms, and what she
asks the United States to guarantee is
an act which provides for n council OF
administration, which shall control all
matters pertaining to the commerce of
the Indies, and all estimates upon the
general taxation and expenditures of
the island, as we'll as its general home
