Scenes of Great Disorder at the Closing of
 the COrteS.
No Cheers for the Throne as the DiShedrtened Statesmen Ad-
 iOurn in Confusion.

LONDON, June 25.-The Madrid cor respondent of the Daily Telegraph says: When the Cortes closed martial law was proclaimed The Sagasta Cab inet will resign and make way for a new Government, which will open up negotiations for peace.
 The Madrid correspondent of the Fi- nancial News publishes this morning a report of an interview with an eX- member of the Ministry, practically verifying the Daily Telegraph's Ma drid dispatch, and adding:
 'Senor Gamazo will be the new Pre- mier, with Senor Salvador at the ex- chequer. and possibly two Silvelaists will join this Cabinet, which will con- clude peace and prepare the way for the Silvela Cabinet. There is no doubt that Spain will lose all her colonies.
 Admiral Camara's squadron left Cadiz to calm public opinion. Camara well knows that before he arrives at the Philippines peace will be made"
 MADRID, June 24.-The decree of the Queen Regent suspending the Cortes was read in the Senate this evening" Prior to the reading of the decree in the Chamber of Deputies, which was crowded, as were also the galleries, SenCr Salmeron, the Republican leader, declared that some of his remarks had been omitted from the official report ot yesterdays proceedings.
 The President Of the Chamber, Mar QuiS Vega d'Armiio, said the omission must be attributed to the uproar, which had probably prevented the reporters from hearing him.
 Senor Salmeron then said he wished to have included in the official report his declarations throwing the responsi- bility for all tIe misfortunes of the country upon the monarchy.
 Senor SagaSta at this point rose and read the royal decree suspendtng par liament. The chamber then adjourned and without the customary cheers to the throne.
 It is consistently reported, though the rumor lacks official confirmation, that the Government has received a further dispatch from Manila. The Republican deputies met tc might and elaborated a plan of political action during the sus- pension of the Cortes. Great import ance is attached to the cabinet council summoned for tomorrow Saturday,.
 The debate in the Chamber of Depu- ties yesterday on the Philippine ques- tion was marked by great disorder Senor Robledo, the Conservative leader, attacked General Polavieja, the former Minister of War, for treating with Aguinaldo. the insurgent leader, and was interrupted with shouts of That is untrue!" A scene of the greatest con- fusion followed ar the sitting was sus- pended.

 In the course of his speech Senor Ro- bledo censured the Minister of Marine and Admiral Cervera, accusing the Minister of having granted unpatriotic interviews.
 Captain Aunon defended the navy. He said Senor Robledo's remarks were insulting and he characterized the pub- lished reports of interviews with him as being distortions" Tn consequence of the latter statement the reporters left the Chamber of Deputies and only returned at the close of the Ministers speech, which concluded with the an- nouncement that Admiral Camara was on his way to the Philippines to defend the Spanish flag.
 Another uproar was occasioned by Senor Salmeron, the Republican leader, denouncing an attempt to close the debate. He loudly exclaimed: Tt is an outrage!" and was commencing an attack on the monarchy when his voice was drowned by shouts from all parts of the house.
 The uproar continued for some time, and when order was restored the presi- dent announced that the Chamber would meet in secret session to dis cuss internal affairs. In the Hobbies great excitement was occasioned Senor Samper shouted as Senor Salmeron was leaving the house: The Repusli- cans are devoid of shame.
