sAeAsTA OUTLINES HIS POLICY.

MADRID, Aug. 5U.-Senor oagasta, cnu
premier, is quoted as having, in the
course Of an interview, made some i'm
portant statements, declaring that it
was the governments intention to re-
press the discussion of war topics in the
cortes.
''The government" said the premier,
twill not discuss in any form the ques-
tions Of peace and war. Indeed, the
deputies would be entirely lacking in
the material necessary for a discussion.
Debate could not be based on concrete
positive facts founded on indisputable
documents, since the necessary infor-
nation has not yet arrived.
81 believe that no discussion of the
surrender of Santiago and Manila will
occur, nor of the destruction Of the
Spanish fleet, unless exact proofs are at
hand
Moreover, no discussion is permits.
sible of matters at present under con.
sideration Of the supreme councils of
war and marine. Mistakes or blunders
may have been committed, but thus fa1
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 debate on these
subjects might be provocative of unde
sirable complications
1t must not be said that peace is
signed and discussion is now allowable
Peace is not signed. Spain is still al
war with the United States. The two
nations have merely concluded sus
pension of hostilities in order to ne
gotiate peace. These negotiations may
be brought to successful issue, but i
might happen that hostilities will be re
| nnmmaDced.

receive Aguinaldo's final instructions by

1t is considered probable that the insur-

OF Things were TO be prolonged 1t would
inevitably lead to the very cataclysm it
is desired to avert and the horrors
whereof make every thinking being
shudder in advance. To put an end to
these incessant ornaments and to seek
the means of warding off the calamities
which are threatening the whole world
such is the supreme duty today im-
posed upon all states. Filled with this
idea his majesty has been pleased to
command me to propose to all the gov
ernments whose representatives are &C
credited to the imperial courts the as
sembling of conference which shall
occupy itself with this grave problem.
sThis conference will be, by the help
of God, the happy pressage for the cen.
fury which is about to open. It would
converge into one powerful focus the
efforts of ali states sincerely seeking to
make the great conception of universal
peace triumph over the elements Of
trouble and discord, and it would at the
same time cement their agreement by a
corporate conservation of the principles

public prosperity. The intellectual ana
physical strength of the nations labor
and capital are mostly diverted from
their natural application and are unpro-
ductively consumed Hundreds of mil
lions are devoted to acquiring terrible
engines of destruction, which, though
today regarded as the last work of sci
ence are destined tomorrow to lose all
their value in consequence of some fresh
discovery in the same field. National
culture, economic progress and the pro-
duction of wealth are either paralyzed
or checked in development. Moreover
In proportion as the ornaments of each
power increases, they less and less full
fill the object the governments have set
before themselves. The economic crisis
due in great part to the system of ar
maments Poutrance, and the continual
danger which lies in this massing of
war material are transforming the
armed peace of our days into crushing
burden which the people have more and
more difficulty in bearing.
