forwaid b.v Spain and says that three
yc.its ago it would have avoiled vvai

ago , at the inception of tlie revolution ,
but now the Cubans cannot accept any

the Cubans fully understood the toims

There Is olio feature of the statement
of ( Jelieral ConieX Unit N of p vtlliar
Interest to the American people. This
is where he snys ( hit the war N it-ally
bi-lween Spiln and Hie I'ltited States
and predlels that within a lew weeKs
Spain will either evacuate Cuba or light
the rnlloil Stales , with the piobabUlty
that II " \\lll do the first ami talk ol' ih-
other. " The veteran Cub in leader Is a
shiewd observer as well as an Inlrep'il '
lighter , but we think Iliat In this In
stance his ji'dgmenl is at fault. Thoie
Is not the least indioation that tinSpni -
Nli government has thought of evaenat-
liur Cuba , while it is iiieoneoivalilo that
it has for a single moment contemplated
Ihe suloidal com so of going to war with
this conntiy. The Spanish minlstiv is
most earnestly cotisidoiing the pioblem
of piovlding mi-ails for continuing the
war in Cubi and in such cliounist.unos
it is baldly possible that It would think
of dci bring war against tlie 1'nltod
States.
