Liberal Cabinet blamed.

LONDON, April 23.-The Madrid cor
respondent of the Daily Telegraph
says: In welI-informed parliament
airy circles a pessimistic view is taken
as to the upshot of the war. Even the
politicians who are periodically sup
porting the government accuse the lib
eral cabinet of having brought about
the war and of having made no prep
arations to carry it on. Those who
have studied the question affirm tina t
the war will be of very short duration
and that when it is terminated those
who are responsible for it will be called
to account"
1t is rumored that Senior Sagasta will
be succeeded by Capt. Gen. Lopez Do
minguez, but even if this new ministry
should be formed it would not survive
the conclusion of peace.

WASHINGTON, April 23,-For some

period Even If it were true that
Spain had ceded Cuba 10 Austria, such
a proceeding would not be tolerated,

cablegram from their Berlin CORE
spondent saying that Rothschilds have
notified the Spanish government that
they will foreclose their mortgage on
the Almedan quicksilver mines the
moment Spain goes to war with the
United States. The Almedan mines
yield enormous revenues to the Span
