ever, who believe that with the annihilation
of the Spanish fleet, the bombardment and
surrender of Havana and Porto Rico, that
Spain will be only too anxious to sue for
peace.
There is no doubt that President McKin-
Icy contemplates an active campaign against
Cuba and Porto Rico. 1t is unotfcally

Santiago will be simultaneous with bonn.

London, May 26.-A Madrid despatch to
the Central News Agency says Senior Sagasta.
Spain's Prime Minister, says that as matters
stand now naval engagement in Cuban
waters is extremely improbable and likely to
be indefinitely postponed.
Admiral CerYera's squadron, Sagasta said,
was safe in the Santiago dc Cuba harbor, and
that Americans would find Santiago forts and
ships different from those at Manila.
''If the Americans are awaiting naval
battle before they attempt an invasion of
Cuba said Sagasta, they will need a consider
able amount of patience.
