Spain Will Continue the War-Will
Defend the Coast of Spain.

Madrid, July IA minister, after the
cabinet meeting today, declared that if
Admiral Cervera had succeeded in escap-
ing the Spaniards would have sued for

of cowardice or fear. Dispatches from

ly to the defense of the Spanish coasts,
and if negotiations for peace must be
opened they will have to be conducted
by some other government. The cabi-
net is of the opinion that the feet under

Home, II Will Obey and Go to My
Doom Sunday Morning"

New York, July IA dispatch to the
World from Madrid says: When the
Madrid government learned that re-en-
forcementS could not possibly arrive at
Santiago in time to relieve the Spanish
fortunes of war on land to save Santi-
ago and the fleet, the government
cabled asking the advice of Admiral
Cervera. He demanded carte blanche
to follow his Judgment and to destroy
his vessels in the bay of Santiago rather
than let them fall into the hands of the
enemy. A council of the ministers
thereupon instructed the misisters of
marine and war to cable to Admiral
Cervera to make sortie along the
coast. even at the risk of the destruc-
tion of his fleet, because it was neceS-
sary to prevent the disaster in the bay
of Santiago for political and dynastic
reasons. Admiral Cervera cabed in re-
ply: Il will obey, and go to my doom
