Sensational Ru,nor That She May Accept
Uncle Sans Good once. In Cuba.
CHICAGO, Jan. IA special TO the
Tribune from Washington says:
Spain il considering formal request TO the
United States to use its good Offices 10 stop
the ightlng In Cuba Intimations have been
received at the state department that the Sa-
gasta government had become convinced that
the only way to save Cuba was TO accept the
often proffered good offices OF the United States
Canovas repeatedly replied TO President Cleve-
land declining these good Offices. and Saga,ta
did the same last November Now the prime
minister has become completely disheartened
over the evident failure Of autonomy.
All efforts OF Spain to bring the subordinates
OF Gomez to surrender on the basis OF home
rule have proven futile. Blanco has complete-
iy failed In his efforts to open up communiea-
tion with the insurgents, and Pando has like
wise been defeated In the field The Spanish
minister now feels that the only thing left is
to accept the good oflices of Uncle Sam in spite
OF the humiliation involved They hesitate
only because they feel that public announce
ment OF this fact would result In a revolution
In Spain
Secret negotiations with the state depart
ment are now actually In progress The Span
tsh government has lost the confidence OF the
loyalists In Cuba, and 1t recognizes the fact
that the island itself is lost entirely unless this
country will, at this late day negotiate with
the insurgents for some basis of peace. The
Spanish propose that the United States should
propose to the insurgents an actual armistioe,
pending negotiations for peace on the basis OF
American guarantees OF the integrity OF home
rule or even of Independence, on a money con-
Siderntion
