Tba Government's Kma of lllamli.g the CnlUd atatai for Its Failures Will Not Much Longer Answer tba Purpose Madrid, Aug. 10. Trouble of a seri ous nature i. being fomented in Spain, particularly in the province of Valen cia, by agents of tbe Cuban insurgent. The minister of tbe interior, Senor Cos gayon, yesterday replying to a question in the chamber of deputies admitted that riota bad occurred in Valencia, caused by tbe friends of tbe Cuban In surgent, wbo hoped thereby to prevent tbe departure of reinforcement of troop, for Cuba. Hitherto the popular demonstration, have been attributed to protest against imposing new taxes, made neoessary by the financial strain tbe government ba been subjected to, through carrying on tbe campaign against the insurgent In Cuba, but while the government i only willing to admit that tie riot bave benn instigated by tbe agents of the Cuban revolutionists, It is generally adimtted that the root of the trouble is much deeper and that it is being nour ished by a natural feeling of alarm and dismay at tbe apparent utter inability of the government to cope with the situation in Cuba. That tbe large Spanish army in Cuba must be still further heavily reinforced is looked upon bere a. being a confes sion of weakness on tbe part of the administration aud a. an admission of tbe growing strength of the Cubans. In addition, many letter, have been re ceived in different part of Spain by the relative of the Spanith soldiery serving with tbe army in Cuba, and tbey tell such terrible tale, of sickness, privation, incompetency and miaman agement, to say nothing of lack of pay, that a dangeroua feeling againat the government bas arisen, and is gaining strength day by day. Under these cir cumstances, agent of tho Cubans do not bave muoh difficulty in carrying out their plan of causing popular out breaks. They steadily fan the flame of discontent by pointing to the apparent ly unnecessary hardships which the Spanish troop, in Cuba are oompelled to endure. The republican, also are taking ad vantage of the situation to push their propaganda, and the combined move ment, are making more headway with the masses than the government will idniit, although it 1 already betraying symptoms of alarm and bas sent strin gent instructions to tbe prefects to luppres. promptly and effectually lemonstration. which occur in their ilBtricts, and to bave no heaitation in sailing out the military for support. A number of conflict, between rioter, ind the police aud soldiers have already occurred, shot, bave been exchauged, ieveral person, bave been wounded on Doth aide., and a number of arrest, have been made. This the revolution ists hope will serve to call attention to their cause aud enlist in their behalf the sympathy of the people. The road, in Valencia are being patroled by the gen d'arme., troops are pursuing armed bauda of revolutionists in the moun tainous districts of the Barue province, and further trouble is apprehended. Madrid np to the present ha. beeu quiet, but sign, are uot wanting that the spirit of discontent ia abroad, and that the effort of the government to gain support by trying to throw the blame for everything 'upou the United State, the chief bugaboo of Spanish politicians, will not much longer avail. In a factory near the city of Valencia the authorities have discovered a quan tity of anna and ammunition, and simi lar store are believed to be iu exist ence in different parts of the province. The arm referred to are known to have been smuggled iuto Spaiu quito, re cently, and are of foreign manufac ture, showing thoir shipment to bo part of the plan of campaign being con ducted by the Cubans in Spaiu. The Spanish officials, as usual, are blaming the Uuited States for the trouble, in this oouutry, basing their assertion upon the fact that among the leaders of the recent riots was Dr. Ber nardo Toledo, aaid to be an American citizen, whose brother is in command of a force of Cuban insurgents. It ia claimed that money, arms aud ammuni tion, were served out to the rioter, from the bouse which he occupied, aud a series of spying is said to have result ed in the discovery of letters from the Uuited States, Cuba and the Argen tine Republio, showing that the out breaks here bave beeu planned by the leaders of the Cuban insurgents, and that the movement is widest read and capable of assuming serious propor tions.
