MAY SUE FOR PEACE.
Another Reverse to Spanish Arms
Might Cause This Action.

Another Reverse to Spanish Arms
Might Cause This Action.
London, May 6.-The Madrid CORE
spondent of the Daily Telegraph says:
'"Those who are best informed as to
the governments view, allege that if
the Spanish arms suffer another de-
feat like that at Cavite the govern
ment would informally request the
great powers to lend their services to
arrange the best possible terms Of
peace. Many Liberals consider that
Spain, having maintained her honor
and justified her chivalry, can now af-
ford to yield to superior force, but it
is doubtful whether public opinion
would approve this line of action.
am assured that the government would
be content to cede Cuba to the United
States, but would not pay indemnity,
becaus unable. Well ;.2<ormed poll
ticians here regard the '|ar as practi-
cally terminated, and tial toward the
end of May it will become history.
What will follow, however. it is diff
ficult to foresee. All the elements OF q
long civil war in Spain are unrortu-
nately becoming visible. The govern
ment and the liberal party are popular
ly hated as being responsible for the
war. Tie Republicans possess no
durable chances Of success. The Con-
servatives ard Carlists are the real au-
thorities of the future, and some Of
the Conservative groups are gravitat-
ing toward Carlism. The economic
question, however will come to the
front first, for hunger cannot wait"

London, May Cit is the absence OF
actual naws as to the war operations
which is causing great anxiety, espe-
cially at Madrid, where Senior Sagasta.
the premier, in the course of an inter-
view, has declared that absence "the
most disquieting feature of the situa-
tion." Attention is again riveted upon
Spain. The special dispatches from
Madrid indicate that the questions Of
the future government of the country
We're beginning to be discussed as il
the figures of the queen regent and
King Alfonso had already disappeared
from the stage Of Spanish politics.
Gen. Weyler is dubbed the Spanish
Boulanger," and in some quarters mil
itary dictatorship in his hands is re-
garded as probable. But the wider
opinion is that he will not succeed any
better than Borlanger did.
The continental press notices the
broadening political ambition of the
United States, coupled with the in
creasing friendship between Great
Britain and the United States with ILL
concealed aversion. Intervention ru-
mors are again in the air. 1t is abso-
lutely certain that Spain has taken no
steps in this direction, nor is she likely
to do so until she has suffered reverse
on the Atlantic.
1t is believed that there have been
some exchanges of views between the
powers on the subject Of the Philip
pines as to which all kinds Of specula-
ton are afloat. None Of the powers
like the idea of the United States be,
coming a near neighbor GO Japan, and
the fear of further American victories
is likely to give a cohesion in which
the powers hitherto have been sadly
lacking.

8, Madrid, May 6. - Public attention
conferred again in the congress dover
house of the cortes). There was repe-
tition of the great crowds, the police
and civic guards, besides the secret
police, mingling with the people.
The galleries of the house were
packed and many ladies were present.
Several prominent senators occupied
seats beside deputies on the floor of the
chamber.
Senior Reverter, minister of finance
in the Canovas ministry, and the hero
of the accommodation incident last
autumn, defended the memory and
policy of Senior Canovas.
Senior Canalejas, editor of Ell Her.

ness and vascillation of the govern

The principal speech was delivered
by Senior Romero v Robledo, former
minister OF justice and leader of the
Weylerite party. who maintained that
America fostered the Cuban rebellion
and "meant war from the commenc-
ment."
Senior Moret'S policy OF autonomy he
characterized as a farce and as abso-
lutely erroneous. AS for the Cubans,
he declared that they did not desire au-
tonony, and as for the rebels, that
they never intended to accept it,
"The present conflict" he continued,
"proves the real intentions of the Yam

Washington, May 6.-Durlng almost
the entire session the senate had under
consideration the postoffice appropria-
ton bill. The measure carried $685.
224,3OO, being very much the heaviest
of all the appropriation bills. The
most important action taken upon the
measure was the adoption of an
amendment offered by Mr.. Iillman of
South Carolina reducing the number
of deliveries Of mail in all cities of the
country to number not exceeding
four each day. Tie amendment was
sharply antagonized as blow to
business interests in the large cities,
but the feeling Of the senate was such
that despite the vigorous opposition, it
prevailed by decisive majority. A
lively debate was preci2itated by an
amendment of the committee striking
out the appropriation Of $3uO,00O for
rural free delivery. The proposition
was discussed for nearly two hours,
Mr.. Chandler of New Hampshire and
Mr.. Butler Of North Carolina leading
the fight in favor of rural delivery.
By the close vote of 25 to %, however,
the committee was sustained and the
bill now carries no appropriation for
such delivery. An important amend
ment to the bill was one which will
prevent star route contractors from
subletting their contracts. In order to
get their money they must swear that
they performed the service themselves
Just before adjournment the senate
passed an important war measure au-
thorizing the president and general Of
ficers Of the army to supply the Cuban
insurgents with arms and munitions of
wal, and empowering officers of the
army serving in Cuba to supply needy

that disaster to the squadron now con-

to revive the public spirit by pointing
out that the new acquisitions to the
American fleet purchased recently only
increase the number and give little eff

auxiliary cruisers and discarded YES

account in battle, but serve as excel
