hasten operations.
Evidence of a Mine.
The naval board shifts its inquiry to
Key West temporarily. While it is
holding sessions there the work of the
divers will go forward and something
may be done toward raising portions
of the wreck of the Maine. Members
of the board discourage laying too
much stress on what the divers are
doing or drawing positive conclusions
from their labors. Nevertheless, they
have found the forward magazine in
tact and have been bringing up pow
der which was not likely to have re-
manned powder If the explosion had
been an internal one.
Much of the evidence leads to sup
port the belief Of an explosion produc-
ed by a submarine mine. The inquiries
of the board are directed along line
to bring out facts bearing on the point.
The proof is neither final nor positive,
but 1t is strong enough to make the
theory Of an accident a growing i'm
probability Until the hull and plates
can be examined no conclusive opinion
can be formed That may be deter
mined by the time the board returns to
Havana.
The arrival of the Vizcaya is awaited
with extreme interest. 1t is possible
that the arrival of the warship will be
made the occasion of a demonstration
of intransigeants and volunteers. The
government cannot well forbid a DEM
onstration of Spanish loyalty. The oc-
casion will afford an excellent oppor-
tunity to measure the feelings of the
Spanish classes. The authorities are
disquieted over the prospect of riotous
proceedings before the ViZcaya's ar
rival.
Great preparations are on foot among
the Spaniards here to give a hearty
welcome to the ViZcaya. General Wey-
Ter street is arched with bunting and
the Casino is gay with color.
1t is believed that the election Of the
autonomist delegates. set for March 20,
will be postponed until April q, to cor
respond with the election for deputies
to the cortes in Spain. The postpone
ment, however, has not yet been Off
cially announced.

WEYLERITEs A FACTOR.
They May Take Part in the COM
Ing Election in SPAIN

WASHINGTON, Feb. 28-The state
department has received the following
dispatch from Minister Woodford at
Madrid
Decree dissolving Spanish cortes Feb. 26.
New cortes will meet April Is.
The dissolution of the cortes had been
expected and it may be attended with
important results. The two parties,
Liberal and Conservative, will now ap-
peal to the country and on the result
will depend the political complexion of
the ministry. The Sagasta ministry,
now in power, is Liberal. It's retention
in power means much at the present
jucture, for it was on the advent of
the Sagasta regime that Gen. Weyler
was recalled; the reconcentfado DEGREES
were annulled and the present plan of
autonomy put in force. The policy
now being pursued by Gen. Blanco in
Cuba is an entire reversal of that I'M
der the Conservative regime of Cano-
vas and his successor, and it is felt
that the continuance of this policy is
no less at stake than the ministry it,
self in the outcome of the present cleo
TONS
Senior du Bose, the Spanish charge
d'affaires, has not received official noti-
fication of the dissolution of the cortes.
but he says this was expected, as the
work of the cortes was concluded. I'm
der the laws of Spain, forty days must
expire before the election Of the new
cortes occurs Mr.. du Bose, who is
himself "a Liberal and warm sup
porter Of the Sagasta ministry, says
there is no doubt 1.-The result will be
the return Of a Liberal majority in the
corteS, and the consequent continuance
of the present ministry
In other quarters it unexpected that
the Conservatives may seize this OPP
portunity to regain the reins Of govern
ment by making a campaign against
the Liberal CubanGpolicy. The Wey-
Ter element is another growing factor
in Spanish affairs, and it is expected
that the WeyleTites will either cast their
influence with the Conservatives, who
sent Gen. Weyler to Havana, or else
make their appearance as a distinct
political organization, representative of
the army and navy.
LONDON, March 1.-THE Daily News,
commenting editorially this morning on
the relations between the1United States
and Spain, says:
Spain can expect no support, moral
or otherwise, from England against the
United States She has ruined Cuba,
as she has ruined or lost every other
colony, by the grossest corruption,
cruelty and NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS., and she
must be left to settle the account for
it with those whom it may concern
without any aid or sympathy on our
part"
The Standard, in an editorial on the
same general topic, highly praises
President McKinley's statesmanlike
moderation, and recognizes that sit
would be only human nature that proof
of the Names having been blown up
from the outside should engender a
dangerous war feeling in America"

There Is no doubt whatever that the
loss Of the Maine was due to lack Of
discipline" and cites the case of a.
United States cruiser which was late
ly at Venice, describing her crew as
being rather pirates than sailors of a
civilized nation" at-
Continuing, Ell Correo says: Drunk
ards, insubordinates, thieves and fight
ers, the sailors Of the United States
never set foot ashore without creating
riots. Nightly several of them slept in
jail, or were taken on board under ar
rest, until the municipality was forced
to formally complain to the command
er and request him not to allow his
men to land, as otherwise they could
not be answerable for the CONSEQUENT
ces.
Had these officials belonged to the
Christina regime, the United States
would have replied by demanding an
indemnity or an apology Or both, with
the certainty Of obtaining it. But the
protest, not being Spanish, no atten-
ton was paid to it. This naval con-
Wet ship, which is never free from the
fumes of alcohol, must be a twin sis
ter of the Maine 1t is a marvellous
thing, in such hands, that one of their
ships does not blow UP daily"
