PEACE NOT SIGNED.
"'SPAlN is STILL AT WAR WITH
THE UNITED STATES"
1Iostilities May Re-oommence-Pr Premier
sagasta Gives Those Reasons for Not
Permitting the Cortes to Discuss Any
Questions of War or Peace.

Madrid August 20.-Senor Sagnsta,
the premier, is quoted as having in the
course of an interview made some i'm
portant statements, declaring that it
was the governments intention tc-
repress the discussion of war topics in
the cortes. He said that as soon as
the cortes met the government would
submit Il bill authorizing peace nego-
tiatons and next measure relating
TO the suspension of the constitution
nj guarantees. Although Senior SaSas-
Ia did not state the nature of this men-
sure it is supposed that it will pro
vide for the continuation of the sus-
pension.
'.The government" said the pre-
mler, "wlll not discuss in any form
the question of peace and war. In
deed, the deputies would be entirely
lacking the material necessary for a
discussion. The debate could not be
based ON concert of positive facts
lOuuutu vi llihlSlIuNtbAV
since the necessary information mas
not yet arrived. No discussion of the
surrender of Santiago or Manila will
occur. nor of the destruction of the
Spanish fleet unless trustworthy proofs
are at hand No discussion is permis-
sible of matter at present under dis
o,,eat,,, ~ +bo ouNran,a councils of UNr
and marine Many mistakes or blund-
ers NAV have been committed, but thus
far we have not sufficient material to
Judge
"Another reason why questions of
peace and war should not be discussed
is that diplomatic negotiations are now
being carried on; and anything said on
these subjects might be productive of
complications. 1t must not said that
peace is signed and discussion is now
allowable. Peace is not signed. Spain
is still at war with the United States,
The two nations have merely conclud-
ed suspension of hostilitles in order
to negotiate peace. These negotiations
may be brought to a successful issue,
but it might happen that hostilitics
will be RECOMMENDED
'.That is why | think the cortes will
only be able to discuss strictly neces-
sary questions, that is, to make itself
acquainted with the situation of the
interests now at stake, which are so
important for the nation, but not to
engage in a debate which would as
sumo such proportions as to Infringe
upon the discretion which the gravity
of the circumstances require of the
cortes.
"Should they ask to have presented
the documents concerning the surren-
der of Santiago and Manila, and the
destruction of the fleet now in posses
sion of the government, it would not
accede to the request. These papers
are in the hands of the supreme court
councils, which alone before the pro-
clamatlon of peace, can conduct inIulr-
les and assume responsibilities. The
inquiries may result in acquitals or
severe sentences with even the eapi-
tai penalty"
