GOOD ADVICE TO SPAIN,
Foreign Governments May Urge Her tc
Yield Promptly to the Demands
of the United States.
Washington, May 11. As a result of
the Spnnlah reverse lit Manila lending
members of the diplomatic corps, rep
risenting some of the most influential
of the great powers of Kurope, lmvi
unoflklally exchanged views on the op
portuneness of a movement, prompted
by the most friendly spirit and in the
Interest of peace, towards urjrlns upon
Spain the futility of further prosecuting
the war, and Inducing her to sue for
peace on the basis of the relinquish
ment of Cuba, the promise of war In
demnlty and the occupation of Manila
by Admiral Dewey until the war In
demnlty Is paid. It was stated by one
of the most influential members of the
diplomatic corps, an ambassador, that
such a step by Spain was the logical re
sult of the crushlnc Spanish defeat
and that Spain herself should be the
first to recognize it as a measure for
her own self protection and self preser
vntion. He did not know whether the
men at the head of the government
were strong enough and brave enough
to save Spain by a heroic sacrifice of
her pride, but unless they did, he said,
the disaster of Manila would he re
peated, for It was now patent to the
world that Spain's military and naval
strength was grotesquely Inadequate
to cope with the forces of the United
States, and Spanish pride would ulti
mately be humbled Into peace on far
more severe terms than she might be
able to obtain now.
It Is said tlpt Spain's plight Is such
at the present moment that a move
ment on the other side may beeln at
uny time towards inducing Spain ti.
make terms for closlnir the war. In
such a move. It Is pointed out, those
powers which have been friendly tc
Spain, particularly Austria and Prance,
might well Join in urging her to sue for
peace before It was too late.
It was stated with posltlveness at
several cf the embassies and legations
that Intervention. In the sense of stay
ing the course of the I'nlted States
was no longer being discussed, and thai
only sin h intervention as would luducp
Hpiiiri to sue for peace was pussihU
under the existing condition of affairs
The military authorities connected
with the foreign establishments hen
say t hat Admiral Montejo and his en
tile staff of olllcers ousht to be, and
undoubtedly will be, court martlaled
for allowing themselves to be surprised
by Admiral Dewey's lleet.
