S~PANIsH-CUBAN FINANCES.
The Enormous, Deb Incurred by the
spaniards I'm Trying to Sub
due the Cubans.

The separate public debt of Spain,
says q writer in the Review Of Reviews,
now amounts to about 81, 800, Geo, COO.
This would appear not to include the
debt which the ~Spuniards have fas-
tened upon Cuba. and which must now
amount to at least $400,G00 COO, and the
interest upon which is paid out of the
revenues collected, in Cuba. The vast
debt settled upon the impoverished
island represents nothing whatever OK
,cept the expenses incurred by the
S~paniards themselves in fighting the
Cubans. A great part of il u~ndoubted-
sly represents money stolen by Spain's
corrupt civil and military establish
ments. Now, If Cuba should succeed
in winning her independence, it was
obvious that she would give herself no
concern whatever. with any part of
SPANS indebtedness, none of which
had ever been incurred by the authori-
ty of the Cuban people and none Of
which had ever been expended for their
benefit-while, on the contrary, a
great part CT it had been expended in
diabolical warfare against them.
Not only was there involved in the
question of Spain's continued. soyer-
eighty in Cuba the $4Oo, 1000 Of so
called Cuban indebtedness, but there
was further involved. undoubtedly. the
total bankruptcy OF Spain. That is to
say, the value of the 81. SEQ 00, 900 of
Indebtedness issued directly in the
name Of the Madrid government, of
which something like a~'thousand mil
lions was in thefdrm Of the permanent
consolidated four per cent. debt, was
n dire peril. The prospect of war with
the United States to be followed by
Cuban freedom, has been causing the
steady decline Of the Spanish con
