Press uorroHpondont hears toduy thut
Spain inny find u way out of the difficul
ty nml Brunt ull Hint Prcaidunt McKin
leylms nuked, though in a different
form. A diplomat, friendly to both na
tions, made strong roprcBoutationa to nn
influential Spanish minister toduy, urg
ing Spain to accept America's moderate
demand, which ho approved, and lejr
rcBt'iitt'il that if it was not done this
week, it would be too lute. It is further
learned that the representations had a
decided efl'eut.
Much pressure line been brought to
bear upon the papal nuncio iiir'uik him
to nek Spain to grant an nnnistieo, and
nt the same time issue a rescript to the,
hnurt'uiite, urging tlicuu, us faithful boiib
of the church, to uccept. The pluti is :
likely to succeed. j
It is not doubted that the great difli-;
culty in the way of Spain making such
nnoU'eristho turbulent army officers,
who, it is generally admitted, would en
deavor to precipitate a revolution were
an armistice oll'ered at the suggestion of
the United States.
Various misleading accounts of yes
terday's conference have been published
indicating a long and impressive session.
All that happened was that SenorMoret,
the minister for the colonies, read the
Hpunlsh note. General Woodford, with
out expressing an opinion, promised to
transmit it to Washington, and utter the
most friendly interchange of compli
ments, the conference was brought to a
close.
The Spanish countor-tiroposals arc
brief. They begin with a reference to
the Maine, which did not form n purt
o the United States suggestions. Spain
expressed regret at the "accident," and
Hint it occurred in Spuuisli waters, sug
gesting that the question of Spanish re
sponsibility for the matter be referred to
nrbitrutic u.
The note then denies the good offices
of the United States government in re
gard to the reconeen'.rHdos und armis
tice. In connection with nn armistice,
the note says the matter is in the hands
oltho Cuban government, intimating
that an armistice would bo granted if
it was asked for by tiie insurgent
armies.
The newspapers today are extremely
jubilant over the display of patriotism
at the opera house last evening, but it
was to a great extent manufactured en
Uiuslasni, All oflico-holdors were ex
pected to Btibscrtba and did so. The
ame was true of ull the officers of tho
army.
From entirely rellablo information It
can be asserted that the government has
adopted measures to mobilize at any
moment the available military officers
o'tlie country. Orders have already
oeen given the garrison at Madrid and
ojuei captaln.gdneralships to reinforce
all tho maritime ports nt a given mo
