New York, March s.-A dispatch to
The Tribune from Havana says;
When arms failed Spain fell back on

II is the ministry's confession Of the
failure Of the radical autonomists to
reach the insurgents with their ~ arti.
cles Of weakened faith. Had they been
successful in opening negotiations with
Gomez, the Madrid cabinet would have
temporized and eyadcd a positive decla-
ration. There being no hope, the pros
pcctive rejection by the insurgents OF
the terms offered is discounted by dis
ayowa in advance.
The attempt is made to divert atten'
ton from the panlyzod arms on land d
the vigorous power on water. The Viz

The worst feature Of the situation Is
the renewed agEyessiyeness Of the vol
unteers since the January riots. They
have seen that the proposition Of the
radical autonOmists 10 disarm them was
sufficient to arouse the old feeling. The
government, even with autonomy NOV
ing forward, would not have been
strong enough 20 overcome a determined
opposition. With the political policy
dead nothing remained except TO yield
gracefully and deny that the intention
10 take away their arms existed. Since
this official declaration has been made

government not 10 interfere with the
