WHEN the destruction OF ths Maine
shall have been settled between the
United States and Spain, or perhaps
before, the Cuban question proper
will ones more loom up in proper pro-
portions. May is said to be the date
for which the president is waiting.
The eleetions for the Spanish eortes
will then have been held and the fate
of autonomy will have been settled,
almost certainly as failure, for IL is
not believed to be possible for Ssgasta
TO win liberal victory, without which
his plans for Cuba will never be rati-
fed. His defeat would probably mean
the return Of the weylerites to the
saddle and policy toward Cuba which
would justify prompt and positive
American intervention.
