WHY CASTILLO REFUSES.
Is Opposed to War-Like Policy, Know
ing it Against Spain's Interest.

London, May 22.-The Madrid CORE
spondent of the Daily Telegraph, says:
One point of interest in the recon
struction of the cabinet lies in the OBJ
stlnate refusal of Senior Leon Castillo
tthe Spanish Ambassador to Franco, to
accept the foreign secretaryship.
am enabled to state that the am
bassadors motive for refusal, was the fol-
lowing; Senior Sagasta's cabinet is by
its own formal declaration determined to
carry on the war with all possible vigor,
whereas Senior Leon Castillo is aware
that Spain's friends among the powers,
France in particular, are resolved to IN
sist upon her suing for peace at the hrst
favorable moment. France possesses Il
tWo-fold interest in having peace conclud-
ed-hnancial and political. The former
would be severely damaged if Spain were
utterly ruined, and the latter would suf-
fer If the United States retained per
manent possession Of the Philippines.
THE leading idea which actuates the
statesman being responsible for the po-
litical scheme favored by Senior Y Cas-
tillo is that, as Spain must be worsted in
the long run, it is advisable to save as
much as possible from destruction, and
that the sooner peace is concluded, the
more tolerable will be the terms ac-
quiesced in by the United States. The
most important of these terms, in the
eyes of SPANS friends and protectors, is
the possession Of the Philippines.
ITO become member of a war cabi-
net, therefore, at the very moment when
the friendly great powers are resolved to
press upon Spain for peace, appears inn
prudent to Senior Leon Castillo, who is
in possession of all the threads of the
negotiations. Spain's Importance as II
present factor in the Far East is now
thoroughly understood, and everything
possible will he done to gain time and
profit by it, The first and most import
ant step at present, therefore, is to util-
ize the most propitious moment for con-
Guiding peace on the basis of SPANS re-
tention of the Philippines. When that
time has come, and it is to be very
soon now that the Spanish squadron
is ut Santiago-Sp will be asked to
provo pour pourleus and friendly efforts
will be made to induce the United
States to rest satisfied with Cuba's indie
pendence or with annexation, and to
abandon the scheme of running perman-
entity or occupying temporarily the Phil
ippines. These are the grave considera-
tions which determine Senior Leon Y
Castillo who is party politician, and
usually submissive to the head of his
party, to insist upon remaining as am
bassador to Paris"

THE TRANsvAAL QUESTION.

London, May 22.-The Pretoria CORE
spondent of the Times, says: THE Star
publishes without the knowledge or APP
proval of the government, the text OF
the reply of the South African republic
to Mr.. Chamberlain dispatch. The
note justiies the Transvaals contention
that it cannot recognize any suzerainty
since the convention of 1891, and quotes
a letter from Lord Derby, written IN
1884 which, it contends, shows that
Lord Derby intended to abandon the
suzerainty.
"The note reiterates the charge that
British officials countenanced the Jamie
son raid, and re-affirms the claim of the
Transyaal's right to arbitration"

The Opposing Armies.

Numerically the opposing armies are
not very different, the estimate OF fine
Spanish force being placed at IA, coo
men, thoroughly entrenched and be-
hind barbed wire fences and block
houses, as against about $4,000 men
under Skaters command, aided by
1000 Cubans. One of the gravest ele-
ments in the problem, however, is the
Spanish warships. for unless Shafter is
materially assisted by Sampson, who
might engage the full attention of the
Spanish ships, their fire upon the
American advance forces would be very
hard to meet.
