Last Moment VIII Yield to the In
eyitable. s7.akIRax
Copyright, 1898. by Associated Press.)
London, March 26.-Although pubic
opinion on this SIDE of the Atlantic, as
in America. had already discounted the
finding of the United States Court Of
Inquiry into the loss of the Maine. and
actual confirmation was expected, the
verdict only served to whet people ap-
petite.
So intense is the interest in the latest
turn of the Kaleidoscope that il abs
:mmeasurably increased the nervous
tension which has been agitating Eu-
rope for the last three months. There is
little hope here that hostilities can be
averted though it is still regarded as
possible that Spain at the last moment.
will see the hopelessness of maintaining
her position and yield to the inevitable.
1t is at last realized here that the
movement to end the Cuban scandal is
no longer in the hands OF the jing0es,
but, that the solid sentiment of the Uni
ted States bids the executive TO act
when the proper moment arrives, thai
the risks have been estimated and that
the great body of Americans are ready
to face them.
So far as ii is possible to ascertain the
general diplomatic opinion, it can be
summed up in the words OF a foreign
office official who remarked:
"The preservation 0f peace depends
upon the temper Spain displays when
the inevitable notification Is delivered
The President propos IS 10 relieve the
sufferers by distributing food, clothes
and medicines from American war snip>
and transports, precise y as Great Brit
ain is now un-officially. and on a
smaller scale doing i'll Crete and unless
Spain pockets her oyerweeliHy cOneiet,
which has hitherto made the recognition
of her failure impossible to her, a rup
ture must come from that quarter and
Spain's pretensions Of preparedness fen
war, and her Finance Minister'S assur.
ance that she has suff' cient funds there
for are equally untenable unless the lat
ter contemplates the immediate susren
sion of specie payments and the payment
of the interest on the debt in paper. The
truth is that Spain is no more in posi-.
ton TO fight the United States than was
Greece to fight Turkey. The one great
hope of the European chanccllorics il
that the President will succeed i'll delay
ing the explosion until, under the glist
of autonomy, arrangements may Jos
sfbly be made to facilitate Spain's giving
up Cuba. The suggestion of the cont
mental press of Intervention upon Tho
part Of the European powers rs mis-
chievous and nothing * more certa
to provoke hostilities.''

TENSION GROWS IN HAVANA.
Havana. via Key West. Fla, March
2G.-1'he tension here is greater than II
WAS n week ago. while expectancy
grows more acute daily, now that the
reports of both courts on inquiry into
the Maine disaster are in the hands OF
their respective governments. Of out
ward signs here of an impending breach
there are few, if any. The volunteers
and recruits are drilling harder, espe-
cially in artillery work. while the EN-
placement of big guns iii the suburb of
Vidido goes on apace. with Il show OF
crisly cannons quite formidable. 1t is
noted, however. that Naval officers smile
when passing the works. One said re-
Gently:
"One of our battleships now at Tortu-
gas carries more metal than the whole
pack of these fellows"
There are murmurings in the low cafes
and some times rather black looks for
the "Americanos" ON the Streets but on
the whole it is much to be doubted
whether Cubans and Spaniards visiting
interior cities of the United States dur
ing the present state of feeling would
be treated with as much general cour-
tesy as is shown here TO all foreigners.
Naval men here are extremely earnest
in the wish that the United States
should early take steps to prevent the
arrival of the Spanish torpedo fleet off
the coast Of Cuba. and within a few
hours sail of the fleet at Key West or
the Tortugas. All believe that the
Washington officials fully approve of
the desirability of such prevention,
However. the real attitude of everybody,
is that so long maintained, namely a
waiting one.
General Gomez has written a letter to
the Junta in New York. reiterating his
purpose to accept nothing but the condi-
tlCnS OF the monte OFlSCO uecldTdllUu.
He says he is willing, however, to pay
Spain S20O,000,000 purchase money, if
needed. He is also anxious that the
Spanish soldiers who remain here should
help in the rebuilding of Cuba's com
mercial greatness. General Gomez says
he has nearer fifty thousand than thirty
thousand under arms. and is getting re-
cruits daily.
Fighting has been resumed with vigor
in the province of Puerto Principe since
the failure to induce the insurgents to
accept or even listen to the ridiculous
offers of the autonomists."
As usual, it is impossible TO tell the
real result of the engagements from the
reports furnished here by Spanish Off
Gals. One bright aspect of affairs is the
relief work. 1t is impossible to under
stand the hostile tone of many of the
Havana papers toward the work of re-
lief. which is so eminently charitable
on the surface and beneath it. The
Spaniards and Cubans cannot want the
reconcentrados to die, yet this would
surely have happened had it not been for
