REMOTE CHANCES FOR PEACE Change of Opinion Among the People Will Not Listen to Suggestions Concerning Abandonment of Cuba . or Porto Rico. New York, July 16. Madrid advices say that the prospects of peace are very remote. Notwithstanding friendly ad vice from Parts and many strong peti tions from the principal commercial bodies throughout Spain, the Sagasta cabinet is etill obstinate. The only concession that they will listen to is to allow Cuba to decide by election the the form of its government. There has been a decided change of front among the people during the past three days, and any suggestion of aban donment of Cuba or Porto Rico would be scornfully rejected. This, in face of the situation at home, iu most desper ate. Carlists are most active ; finances are absolutely ruined. Still Premier Sagasta, who really desires peace, would not dare to suggest any form of peace negotiations that would be acceptable at Washington.
