Deep Interest is felt here In the news received from the United States. La Lucha, In an edi torial, says: "The United States' note to Spain, de manding that a date be fixed to end tho hostilities, Is simply a declaration of war. It was not Issued until after the finding of the United States court ot Imiuiry had been received, which finding is without scientific basis and Is open to question, even upon the part of the most prejudiced. President McKlnley has been forced by Jingo opinion and tlio Bensatlonnl newspaper press to close the debate on the ques tion nnd shield Captain Slgsbee, who is one of the most popular otllcers In the United States navy. "It was needless to send the Maine to Havana, as American Interests were amply protected by General Lee and also by the Cuban government, thu latter often acting to Its disadvantage and in favor ot American Interests. It Is well for Spain to know at last the real purpose of tho money loving Americans. Spain now knows what to expect and how to act." La Lucha then warns the United States that If she expects to have all her own way In Cuba "she can only do so with cannon." In conclusion La Lucha says; "The United States Is rich nnd Spain Is poor, but tho end of the war may find Spain with a good portion of American money."
