]. Adam Bede, that money and hard times
will pervert some busted politicians at any

generally are of the opinion that the EN-
peror will obtain the assent of the powers
to take the part of the reigning family of
Spain in any interneclne struggle which
may grow cut of the Cuban question and
that such an agreement can be made with
out serious danger of involving other Euro
pean nations in war If this understanding
can be arrived at the Sagasta Ministry
would be emboldened to do what it has
wanted to do for long time, and which it
being overthrown. namely the relinquish-
ment of Cuba on the best terms that can
be made A short time before he assumed
the direction Of affairs Sagasta made open
confession of his sincere belief that the
Cuban war was hopeless, and it is privately
known that he has not changed his mind.
1t is assumed therefore. by very well-in-
formed diplomats that as soon as he can
safely move he viii indicate that he is
ready to receive suggestions and to take ac-
ton looking to a settlement of the Cuban
matter He is now prevented from so doing
and held in check through a very lively fear
of successful revolution. but with assur-
ance of Austrian backing he can proceed in
open defiance of the army along such lines
as may seem to him best,
With a general knowledge of what is go
ing on for peace President Mckinley feels
that he has better reasons for looking for
a peaceful termination of the pending prob
lem than the public at large has yet been
able to appreciate or understand In the
nature of things there can be no official ad-
vertisement by the administration of the
nature and scope Of the vitality important
deals which are in progress abroad. The
administration is not averse, however, to
dropping hints to it's friends Of the press to
work out in order that the people may have
an inkling Of what is going on in their in
terest and in the interest of the
country Unless the report Of the
Maine court of inquiry should be SEN
it is expected to be as to compel the Presi-
dent tc take an aggressive stard which
would bring matters to an acute and de-
cisive issue there is not likely to be White
House action which will interfere with or
embarrass our European allies
The members of the court of inquiry are
expected in Washington within very few
days Judge Advocate Mark wrote q let
ter to personal friend, which was received
to-day informing his correspondent that he
expected to be here 'this week" This is
a contradiction to the prevailing belief that
the court is holding back its report by re-
quest OF the administration, but there can
be no question as to the genuineness of the
Mark letter. 1t can also be stated by au-
thority that the President is not anxious for
further delay, but that he is desirous of
bringing the Maine matter to head He
does not look for trouble to result there
from and will be glad to see negotiations
for settlement under way without further
delay.
