Situation in Madrid

Madrid, July II, via Bayonne,
France, July l3-All the Spanish
ministers have handed their resig-
nations to the premier, Senior
Sagasta, who has explained the
situation to the queen regent.
But the difficulty is that nobody is
willing to accept the premiership.
Marshal Martinez de Campos
would accept it, but he does not
command majority in the
chamber of deputies. While the
military party urges war, large
proportion Of the civil population
is desirous of peace. 1t is pointed
out, however, that if the United
States insists upon the cession of
Porto Rico and the Philippine
islands, the general feeling will be
in favor of continuation of the
hostilities, many Spaniards believ-
ing that the situation in Cuba will
enable Spain to prolong the
struggle.

COULD NOT DO OTHERWISE

Washington, July 13-The sub
stance of Simpsons report of the
destruction of Cervera's fleet has
been received at the navy depart

matters which have been widely
discussed. He gives credit to
Commodore Schely for the cap

can probably be saved. No men,
