SPAIN Will NOT YIELD !
Does Not Admit the Possibility of the Cuban's
Ultimate independence.


steps of a decisive character.
The Spanish ambassador at Berlin is .
the father-in-law of the Spanish min
lister here, and that latter would be .
quite likely to know if Germany had .
made a move involving the dispatch .
of a warship to Cuba for punitive pur-
poses. 1t was the general feeling that .
If Germany had taken any such action .
it would have a most decided influence |
upon the Spanish American situation |
and one seriously prejudicial to Spain. |
For this reason it was the opinion Of |
diplomats that Germany would not |
choose such a tuncture as the present |
in order to make emergency demands in |
a claim against Spain.
Said a prominent diplomat today:
"Spain seems to be under the impress |
sion that the national honor forbids her /
from surrendering any part of her
colonial domain under the pressure of
the United States. There are, how
ever, precedents showing that European
powers have preserved their dignity
while making similar concessions. 1t
may be remembered that the Ionian
Islands, a part of the Turkish empire,
were afterwards ceded to Greece by
Great Britain, and that Venitia was re-
surrendered by Austria not directly to
Italy, but to France, who transferred
1t to the government of Victor Eman-
ueI."
Congress WIN Wait Until Monday.

fore any action is taken. The president

! the committee is treated confidentially.
The committee of Republicans which
waited on the president yesterday re-
ported to the conference at a meeting
held after the adjournment of the
house. They stated that the president
made frank declaration as to what
was taking place between the two gov
ernments and concluded with these
words: II pray God that we may be
able to keep peace" The impression
left with the delegation, however, was
that he did not expect peaceable ad-
justment In strictest confidence Mr..
