In this Interview Mr. Sherman Is represented as saying : "Spain will lose Cuba. That seems to mete to be certain. She cannot continue the struggle. Already the conflict IISB cost her more than $200,000,000. Her money la gone and flic can get no more She cannot piy back what the haii already borrowed. The only thing left for her to do is to repudiate her debts. Wo had to do that after the revolution. Having repudiated them slic can begin anew , but she will have to begin without Cuba. The Insurgents have been fighting with only the liopo of ultimate BUCCCSS as their reward. The Spanl.ili sol diers have been battling for pay. The pay will stop and then , the conflict will stop. "Spain Is in no condition to wage war anywhere. The burdens placed upon her people to sustain the struggle for restrain ing Cuba have hern very heavy. Wide spread discontent will come sooner or later within the Spanish kingdom. By stopping the struggle , by withdrawing her troops from Cuba and by repudiating her debts . is her only way to recover. Sooner or later eho must do thl.i. So far we have done . nothing to arouse the anger of thu Spanish people. We. have gono" on minding our own business , blind to the distress of Cuba and deaf to the pleadings of our own people ple , who wanted the government to Inter fere. " The secretary was asked as to whether there was any truth In the report that the Amcllcan flag vvcs to be raised In Hawaii , and a protectorate proclaimed , He replied : "I cannot divulge the Instructions given to Minister Scwnll What they are will de velop no time passes. But I can say that there will bo no change In the situation In Hawaii until congress reconvenes.
