Minister ApprehcUsive OF TrOuDle
with England.
Madrid. December 3e.-El Liberal pub
lishrs an interview with minister whose
name is not known and represents him -
declaring that the advent of the conser,
atiyes to power is only delayed by Senior
Sagasta'a illness.
"All the ministers" said the person in
question, had already offered their reSig-
nations, but the premier's sudden illness
STAYED off the crisis. But above the prob
lens Of interior politics. there is ono
question of extraordinary gravity affecting
the very existence of the fatherland. This
question preoccuples our statesmen so
deeply that 81 would suffice to unite them
to prevent fresh catastrophes. 1t is inn
possible to speak clearly on this point
can only say the preoccupatfon includes
fears of apprehended events which must
give pretext for a thing England is pur-
sung with effronterv."
The interview has excited much COM
ment and anxiety is felt as to what the
ministerial organs will have to say.
