CONFLICT NOT ENDED.
Madrid Epoca Says the Jingoes Hay
Make Armistice a Farce.

Madrid, April 9, midnight delayed in
transmission)-Th Epoca, Conservat-
i've, says it now lies with America to
decide whether she win cooperate with
Spain for peace. If a new demand be
made or President McKinley's message
be not conciliatory. it viii be clearly
proven that America wishes to provoke
a quarrel The paper continues: We
do not consider the conflict ended by
this truce. The jingoes' enormous in
huence in America, and that of the in
surgents, may turn the truce into a
fasco, but in spite of all this, we think
the governments action wise in fixing
the responsibility on America
Regarding the reception of news of
the governments action, the Epoca
says all the anti-dynastic parties bit
terry oppose the action of Spain, and
announce meetings to be held in pro-
test, but they will come to naught, as
the civil governor will prevent ali meet
inss either favoring or opposing the
decision.
The Nacional, conservative, organ of
Remero RObledo. is bitterly hostile to
today's concessions, and says the gov
eminent called in the European powers
to witness a scene of Spain's disgrace.
For this language the NacionaI was
confiscated tonight.
Ell Heraldo remarks that the six pow
ers have put Spain between the devil
and the deep sea- by saying Grant an
armistice or we will hold you RESPONSE
Bile for the war" The paper expresses
the hope that the country Will restrain
its passions in the presence of the sad
events.
The Correspondence Militair, service
paper, says that Senior Moret, realizing
the failure of his autonomy policy, got
the queen to write to the pope, whose
interference partially failed until sup
ported by the European powers, who,
following the concerts example of 1897
so pressed the weaker power that the
result was a renewal of the peace of
Utrecht, Spain losing honor and terri
tory.
FL Globo, liberal. strongly defends the
policy of the government in granting
an armistice for the sake of peace and
to avoid rupture with the United
States. The paper considers the meas
ure in no wise disparaging to the mil
itary prestige of Spain, and supports

Washington, April 10.-At the close Of
the second cabinet meeting tonight it
was announced that the presidents
message would undoubtedly go to con-
gress tomorrow. On the best authority,
it was stated that the meeting was de-
voted wholly to the consideration Of the
messages addition. necessitated by the
receipt of the latest note from Spain
advising this government of the de-
claratiOn of an unconditional armistice.
The suffiX to the presidents message
merely recited this latest development
of the Spanish situation, giving the
substance of the Spanish note and re
comending it to the earnest attention
of congress" Otherwise, the message
stands unchanged.
After the meeting. one member of the
cabinet said that the Spanish note had
not altered either the message or the
situation. 1T is merely said he,
what Spain has been asking for all
alOng-mOre time. 1t does not touch
the situation. and the presidents mes

after the meeting: Our meeting to-
night was for the final reading OF the
message. which viii be sent 70 congress

and will contain review of the condi-
lions existing in Cuba for years past:

Eument is made against the recognition

for the reason that there is lacking the
essential features of an independent
people. There is a quotation from one
of the former presidents. who argued
against the recognition of the Texans
when in rebellion Sgainst the Mexican
government, and from the opinions ex-
pressed by President Cleveland and
Secretary Olney during the last admin
istratiOn. in opposition to a .ecoSnition

ADDITION MADE.
There was but one addition made to
the message, and that was in relation
to the dispatch presented to the state
department by Minister Polo Ber-
nabe and containing the information
that the queen regent had granted au-
thOrity to CAPTAIN General BlancO to
ditions of which would be left to his
judgment. This was the first cOmmu-
nication that the state department has
had with the Spanish minister since a
week from last Friday. SO far as 1 am

made to the insurgents by this govern
ment with a view of their considering

government has never had anything to

net recommend further delay, simply
to observe tine practical effect of the
armistice. but they were outvOted by
the majority. who thought the presi-
dent had waited long enough.
