the peace treaty. He said that infor-
nation received by the Minister of
Forelgn Affairs, Duke Almodovar de

Therefore the Premier insisted that

JAUDENEZ'S CASE.
The Cabinet met again this evening,
Senior Sagasta presiding. 1t appears
that the evidence before the court-inar-

ordered his arrest, whereupon he sur
rendered himself. 'attired in civilian
