TO-DAY'S TELEGRApHIC NEWS
Efforts at Mediation.

MADRID, April 4.-The best informed
people here believe an armistice be-.
tween the Spaniards and Cubans will
BE- proclaimed within two days. The
Pope, it now appears, sent an eloquent
telegram to the Queen Regent urging
Spain to grant an armistice in Cuba
with the view of allowing negotiations
to be carried on between the insurgents
and the Cuban authorities for the early
conclusion of q permanent peace.
Spain's reply to the Pope, in accep.-
ing his mediation, said the honor OF
Spain would be safe in his hands, and
that full justice would be done 10 the
case. owing to the high prestige of the
Pope everywhere.
Previous TO taking this action, it is
added, the Pope, through representa-
tive at Washington, asked President
Mckinley if it would be agreeable to
him should the Pope advise the Queen
Regent to grant an armistice, and it is
understood the President expressed
willingness that the Pope should do
anything in his power. Senior Moret,
the minister for the colonies, had an in.
terview with United States Minister
Woodford Sunday at which be express
ed SPANS willingness to grant an i'm
mediate armistice. He pointed out
that the only condition Spain asks 10
return is one (which America would
grant even if unasked," and refers only
to cher action after Spain prcclsims
the armistice.n
Senior Moret confirmed the announce
ment made of the Pope's mediation be-.
tween Spain and the CubaDs, and add.
ed trat the suggestion did not come
from the United States government,
but from Rome direct. Senior Moret's
manner, as well as that of General
Woodford, conveyed the impression
that they both believe that peace will
result from the present negotiations.
MADRID, April 4.-No further de-
velopment in the political situation is
yet reported, but the feeling of relief
experienced is strongly reflected in
financial circles and was marked by a
rise in prices on the stock exchange.
The papal nunco had an audience with
the Queen Regent this morning.
ROME, April lit is stated in Vat;-
can circles to-day that the Pope has not
formally offered to mediate between
Spain and the United States, because he
has not been requested to do 50 by the
two governments. 1t is true, however,
that the poptif has conveyed to Madrid
his ardent wish for the avoidance of a
conflict and has asked Spain to arrange
for suspension of warlike measures or
decisions. The Pope, in his telegram
to the Queen Regent, added that las
the father OF all the faithful" he could
not intervene unless stop was put to
the Shedding of blood of the people
who are Gods sons" Therefore he
asks for suspension of hostilities.
PARIS, April 1t is semi-oficially
announced that the powers are COZ
tinuiDg their earnest efforts to find a
common ground upon which they
could jointly offer mediation between
the United States ard Spain.

MONDAY EVENING, APRIL 4, 1898

CRIMES of violence among the negroes
are increasing with great rapidly,
Judged by accounts of them in the
daily newspapers. That such is the
fact is explained by Professor Lam
broso upon the ground that there re-
mains latent within the negro the prim-
tive instincts of the savage, for not
withstanding that the garb and the
habits of the white man may have given
him veneer of modern civilization, he
is still too often Indifferent to and care
les. of the lives of others; and be be-
trays that lack of the sentiment OF
pity, commonly observed among
savage races, which causes them
to regard homicide as a mere
incident, and as glorious in case
it is the outcome of revenge"
Indians return to the blanket, and there
is no doubt of the fact that all men IS
well as animals have q natural incllna'
ton to revert to the savage state, and
life in the negro quarters ofcities, and ia
the country where they are left to them
selves, shows that they are rapidly
returning to the barbarous condition Of
their ancestors in darkest Africa.

GENERAL WEYLER was a military
attsche of Spain at Washington during
the war between the States, served
with General Sheridan in the Valley OF
Virginia and had great admiration
for General Sherman for his march
through Georgia. He was good pupil
and evidently got his ideas concerning
the practice of war from the two dis
tinguished federal generals referred to.
But those who favored that practice
when Southern Christian white people
were the sufferers, now, when negroes
and scalawags are its victims, denounce
it as barbarous.
