whether any OF the insurgents viii fight

equally doubtful whether Gen. Maxine

with certainty is that the cabinet at Wash

upon efficient assistance from the insair-
gents, which 1t evidently expected when
IL rushed into war without having an

The new ministry has been constructed

an intention TO warn whom Il NAV con-
Germ that Spain is ready 70 resist anv nm
