DEBATE In THE CORTEs.
An Exciting Session of Parliament
Great Britain RebufRed.

MADRID, May 3-In the Cortes to-day a
resolution of homage" in honor of those
killed in the naval engagement off Cavite
was adopted unanimously. The message
from the Queen Regent was then adopted
the Republicans, Carlists and Conservatives
voting in the negative.
The official account of Captain General
Augustus communication as to the offer of
the British consul at Manila to place all
Chinese subjects in the Philippines under
the protection of the British flag says:
Captain General August wires that the
British consul called upon him to say that
he would take the Chinese subjects in the
Philippines under the British flag in order
to safeguard their lives and property The
captain general added that a number of
rich and influential Chinese at Manila had
assured him that they were satisfied with
the protection of Spain Senior Moret, Sec
retary of the colonies, replied to Captain
General August that there was no reason
to accept the protectorate which the Brit
ish consul wished to exercise. The British
consuls offer has been communicated to the
powers"
The government apparently sees some
deep-laid machination on the part of Great
Britain, for the official note SAYS: ''This
news caused surprise, although people are
accustomed to the methods of those who di-
rect British interests" The question is
asked: What can be the object of the
British request? China is not in a position
to expect this or any other protectorate
but the British take it upon themselves to
be the protectors of the Celestial empire
against French, Russian and German am
bitonS, with view undoubtedly to acquire
new title to the protectorate of Chinese
In the Philippines. The Spanish govern
ment cannot accept the role offered it and
rejects the proposition, at the same time in
forming the powers who are not disposed m
allow Great Britain to protect China that
they have squadrons in the far East them
selves for that purpose"
The floors and galleries Of the Congress
dover house, were crowded at to-day's sit
ting and some lively scenes ensued. Senor
Salmeron said that before questioning the
government the house ought to paw it's
tribute of admiration to Spains heroic
sailors at Cavite, adding when it has been
ascertained how much blood has been shed
and how much money expended, it will he
necessary to establish the responsibility at
taching to the crown as well as to the
least citizen
Murmurs OF protest followed this remark
The president of the chamber called Senor
Salmeron to order and directed his attention
to the article of the Constitution declaring
tho invIolabilty of the crown Senior SAL
meron continued, demanding information as
to the defenses in Manila bay, and insisting
that this question should q discussed after
the government had given It's explanation.

SLAP 1T GREAT BRITAIN
NOT PERMITTED TO TAKE CHINESE
AT MANILA UNDER PROTECTION.
Scenes in the Streets of the Spanish
Pretender, and General WeyIer.

LONDON, May Awhile Manila is cut off
there is almost as great silence respecting
the exact situation of affairs on the At
lantic. The papers indulge iii all kinds of
speculations as to the probable meeting of
the fleets on the ocean, and cannot bring
themselves to believe that Admiral Samp-
sons entire fleet has been withdrawn from
Havana, as it is considered quite strong
enough to divide without running extrava-
CANT risks. Interest for the moment has
shifted to Madrid. which appears to be on
the eve of military pronunciamento. Gen.
Weyler is the popular idol. He has, how
ever, no actual command at present, and,
therefore, cannot pronounce in his own per-
son. 1t is probable that the censorship
hides the real gravity of the situation. 1t
is extremely likely that martial law has
been proclaimed in other big cities. Ener-
getic measures on the part of the govern
ment. especially if a scapegoat can be
found, may stave off popular outburst,
but the scenes in the Cortes indicate a very
ugly temper on the part of the populace.
A special dispatch from Madrid. via Bay
onne, says: I'm the mob Monday night were
many officers in mufti, who were foremost
in melting the people to attack the minis
ters' residences and We're loudest in calling
for cheers for Weyler. There is no doubt
these men desired to provoke the govern
ment into firing upon the mob, and so to
pave the way for it's downfall. Some of them
were arrested but were subsequently re-
leased, the government fearing to let 1t be
known that officers of the army formed
part of the mob. While the streets were
thus occupied great unrest was manifested
at the various barracks and the soldiers
were only prevented from joining the mob
by the personal pleadings of the officers.
The Republicans were even more busy than
the officers in urging the crowd and shout
ing, Down with the Queen Regent" More
than once they led the mob toward the royal
palace, but each time the police drove them
hack"

REVOLUTION In SPAIN.

LONDON, May 4.-The Brus-
sells correspondent of the Daily
Chronicle says: "Don Carlos, the
preteuder, is much agitated by pri-
vate kilograms he has received
to-day from Madrid. A Spanish
diplomatist of high position said
to me to-day: They are practical
ly in a state of revolution, and it
is the beginning of the end of the
regency. The Queen Regent may
make a final effort in favor of her
son, but he will never come to the
throne.

Dewey Reported to Have Been Bonn
harding the City Monday


LONDON, May 3.-The first lord of the
admiralty, Mr.. George Goschen. answering
question in the House of Commons to-
day on the subject, said the government
had no information regarding the reported
bombardment and destruction of Manila.
Mr.. Goschen added that full arrangements
had been made to protect British interests
there and to enforce neutrality in Cuban
waters In addition. men-of-war will be
sent to the Canary islands.
Inquiries made at the offices of the East
ern Telegraph Company show it to have
been impossible for any word to have come
from Manila since 10 o'clock yesterday
morning London time, when the cable was
cut. The officials of the company say that,
according to their tests from Hong Kong.
the cable was cut fifty miles from Manila.
not HongKong, as reported earlier in the
day. They think a week or even a fort
night may elapse before it is in working or
der again, as there are no facilities there to
repair the cable. and, In any event, 1t will
be difficult task to pick up the cable in
deep water.
A special dispatch from Madrid says the
Spanish Colonial ONCE had advices of the
beginning OF the bomhardment OF Manila
before the cable was cut. which said: Thus
far the American shells have not reached
the town proper which is strongly protect
