RESIGNED.
The Spanish Cabinet Tender Their Resig-
nations, with Suggestions That the
Military Element Be Recognized.

Madrid, July 12.-Senor Sagasta went
to the palace yesterday and rendered
his resignation and that of the cabi-
net. It is said that he advised the
queen regent to appoint new cabinet
largely consisting of the military ele-
ment which would not necessarily
mean the adoption of a warlike policy,
but probabl the reverse.
1t is gene rally expected that the res
ignation will be accepted, but the re-
suit may possibly be merely partial
reconstruction of the cabinet.
On leaving the cabinet council the
ministers declared that they had mu-
tually engaged to maintain the strict
est silence on the subject of their de-
liberation.
Duke Almodovar de Rio, minister of
foreign affairs, had an audience with
the queen regent yesterday and an
important conference with the French
am bassador.
1t Is believed the cabinet resigned in
consequence of irreconciliable differ
ences of opinion on the question of in
itating peace negotiations.
