DEATH PENALTY HINTED AT

MADRID, Aug. 30.-Senor Sagasta,
the premier, is quoted as having, in
the course of an interview, made some
important statements, declaring that it
was the governments intention to re-
press the discussion Of the war in the
cortes. He said that as soon as the
cortes met the government would sub
NIT bill authorizing peace negotia-
tlons and next measure relating to
the suspension Of the constitutional
guarantee. Although Senior Sagasta
did not state the nature of this meas.
ure, it is thought it will provide for a
continuation of the suspension. =
"The government" said the pre-.
mier, twill not discuss in any form
the questions of peace or war. Indeed,
the deputies would be entirely lacking
in the
Material Necessary for Discussion.
The debate could not be based on con.
crete, positive facts, founded on indis.
putable documents, since the necessary
information has not yet arrived.
II believe that no discussion of the
surrender Of Santiago or Manila will
occur, nor of the destruction of our
feet, unless trustworthy data and
proofs are at hand. Moreover, no dis.
cussion is possible of matters under
consideration Of the supreme courts Of
the army and navy.
''Mistakes have undoubtedly been
made. but so far we have not sufficient
material to judge. A reason that ques-
tions of war and peace should not be
discussed is that negotiations are now
in progress, and discussions might be
provocative Of ...
1. Undesirable Compilations.
It must not be said that peace is signed
and discussions are now allowable.
Peace is not signed. Spain is still at
war with the United States. The two
nations have merely concluded sus-
pension in order to negotiate peace.
These negotiations may be brought to
successful issue, but it may happen
that hostilities may be resumed.
"Should the deputies ask to have
presented the documents concerning
the surrender Of Santiago and Manila,
and the destruction of the feet, now
in the governments possession, the
governments would not accede to this
request. These papers are now in the
possession Of the supreme councils,
which alone, until the establishment
Of peace, can institute inquiries and es.
tablish responsibilities. The inquiries
may result in acQuittals or severe sen.
fences, even the capital penalty" s
