Spain Doubts the Renewal of War Should She
Withdraw From the Peace Negotiations.
Blanco Unwilling to Surrender
to the Americans.
This was the semi-evasive manner in which the Spanish diplomat
answered the questions. His questioner con tinned:
"Then it has been affirmed that Spain, will refuse to sign the
treaty, decline the money offered and protest to the Dowers and that her
commissioners will go home. Is that the most likely result?"
Ah, but we should not anticipate, we should know day by day
what happens day by day."
The Petit Bleau reaffirms today as a certanity that the Spanish
will refuse the American offer of $20,000,000 for the treaty, cession of
the Philippines.
The Temps saya; "If the , Spanish should withdraw . from the
peaoe negotations, the war would not, be resumed, f but , the protocol
would come into force again. The Spanish army would evaoute Cuba
and Porto Rico, while the Philippiues will remain in Dewey's occupa
tion, but not-America's posse-sion. The only result would, be that
diplomatic relations would not be renewed.
Such a course is preferable to a renewal of hostilities, . but one
would rather wish to see a movement of reason and conscience in the
United States, and not an abuBe of the rights of a conquror, or, at least,
an avoiding of a recourse to force whioh the civilized world , would
neither understand nor approve."
Madrid, Nov. 23. The pfficial gazette publishes a decree accept
ing the resignation of General Blanoo as governor-general of Cuba.

Paris, Nov. 24. The Spanish cotnm csioners at noon today had
not fixed upon a cUy to submit a final answor to the Amerioan propo
sition, but it is deemed most likely that Satarday will be the day ap
appointed. Th opinion gains grounds that the Spainiards will ao
cept the proposals of the Uuited States. A. significant indication of
this view of the situation was a remark dropped by Senor Abenzusa,
of the Spasish commission, today that they expected to remain here
about a fortnight longer.
The secretary of the Spanish commission, Senor Ojeda, said today
that instructions from Madrid were not sufficiently matured to enable
tbem to appoint the next meeting.
The correspondent of the Associated Press asked Aberzusa if the
commission would be able to leave Paris next week with the treaty.
He replied: "I suppose we BhhU be here for another fortuight"
"Why," the Spanish commissioner was asked, "is the opinion ex
pressed so emphatically by a portion of the Paris press that you will
decline the $20,000,000, but will siga the treaty with protest that you
do so only by pressure of superior power?"
"Well, it does seem thst $20,000,000 is not very satisfactory."
Washington, Nov. 23. No suprise is expressed in government
oircles at the news of General Blanoo's resignation. It is known that
some time ago, the general sought to resign the office of captain-general
of Cuba, and he was induced to retain that poBt only , by appeals
to bis patrotism on the part of the Madrid government t It is suppos
ed that his purpose is to avoidwbat, he may regarded as the dishonor of
surrendering the Gem of the Antilles to the United 8tates. The captain-general
of the Philippines took the same course. General Aro
las, the seoond in command, is likely to have the unpleasant duty of
surrendering Spanish sovereignty over Cuba. It ia believed that
Blanoo's aotion will not in any way effeot .the evaouation, save in the
possibility it contains of inoiting rouble among the Spanish troops.
Havana, Nov. 23. Captain-General Blanco has directed that all
suits in oaae pending against civilians or members,, of the volunteer,
guerrilla or mobilized foroes under military jurisdiction shall be turn
ed over to the civil authorities. - The effest of this order will be that
all such prisoners now confined in military fortresses will be transfer
red to the public jails. Provision is made that thiB transfer is to be
completed by December 15. , All the military prisoners are to be ship
ped to Spain during the first fortnight of December.
General Matthew 0. Butler, of the Cuban military commission,
aocompanied by his aid, Lieutenant Hampton, sailed today on the
steamer Masoott tor the United btates by way of Tampa, Fla. They
are expeoted to retnrn here in. about two weeks.
