Views of the Madrid Press. She opinions expressed by the Madrid Lewspapers are contradictory. Some of them hold that war is inevitable, and others hope for peace. El Correo (official) says: “While America asked for an armistice, Spain refused; but to the voice of Europe and the pope, even Spain, without dishonor, may accept the arrangement proposed in the interests of peace.” The Globo (liberal) rejoices at the “‘calm- er judgment of yesterday's press,” highly commending the utterances of the Corre- spondencia de Espana and the Epoca, and adding: “Neither America nor Spain can ignore the collective action without daring the European powers. England's participation necessitates Spain's watchful eye on the developments. We have not forgotten that the Times said: ‘In order to treat with the insurgents the Spaniards must pocket their pride.’ Unless the powets tie the American hands against further aiding the insur- gents, their interference will be of little benefit to America, Spain or Europe.” El Liberal (moderate republican) says: “The powers’ preliminary proceedings at Washington do not speak intentions favor- able to Spain.
