UNDER MARTIAL LAW.
Cabinet Crisis imminent and Downfall OF the
Government Certain.

London, May 1.-The Madrid CORES
pendent Of the London Daily News tel
egraphing, Tuesday. says: There :
no longer any doubt that the internal
situation is causing the government
almost as much uneasiness as the ex-
ternaI. Last nights demonstration
was one Of the most serious in some
time, since those openly participating
showed their revolutionary tendencies
Cries We're raised with Down with the
Bourbons." Long live Don Carlos;
Weyler."
The first move of the demonstrators.
over 1000 strong. was to the house Of
Gen Weyler with the object of cheer
ing him. He did not appear. and the
crowd then Went to the residence Of
Senior Sagasta, where the ministers
We're in conference, and shouted in ia
vor of his resignation. Senior Aguileca,
civil governor of Madrid, broke up the

who We're badly stoned and had 10
charge the crowd. The authorities
thereupon met Senior Aguilera, who an
nounced his intention of resigning. say
ing that it cost him great trouble to re-
press such manifestations and that h.
was not able to answer for order with
the powers at his disposal.
'Thereupon the edict was issued
placing Madrid under martial law, and
the military governor. Gen. Daban, re-
ceived stringent orders from Gen. Co
rea, the minister of war, for the preser-
walton of peace.
Meanwhile the cabinet council is
discussing the political situation in
Spain. Admiral Bermejo, minitser OF
marine, and Gen. Correa, are strongly
in favor of an immediate suspension Of
the constitutional guarantees. step
which requires the closing of the Cor
ties. The other members of the cabinet
however. consider this inconvenient at
present. because it would wipe out
many years Of the history of the Lib
eral party.
There is a general belief THAI total
cabinet crisis is imminent and that il
will probably end in a considerable modi-
tiCation of the present government, pos
Sibly in the formation of a national min
istry under the presidency of Marshal
Marunez Campos. In any ease Parlia-
ment is certain to be shortly closed.
The events of the last few days have
undoubtedly increased the popularity of
Gen. Weyier. who favors an out-and-out
war policy. At the same time there is
no real ground for anticipating that he
will come to the head of affairs Gen.
Wcyler is notorious, but not a prominent
person in Spanish politics. Politicians and
the people at large have been paying but
little attention to him recently His party
is composed of a few persons of 10 very
high standing. Moreover. everyone recog-
niZes that Weyler's cruelty in Cuba aa1
his policy as to the reconcentrados largely
contributed to bring about the present
state of affairs, while his alleged notori-
Gus laxity with regard to public money
has made him much disliked. Public opin-
ion is always likely to mistrust him and
he is unpopular with the Queen Regent.
The country en- masse is opposed to the
idea of republic. The people prefer Don
Carlos or anything to such a change
They had enough of the republic in 1873
