Cuba Crisis in Madrid May Bring Weyler Recall
Washington June 3 diplomatic circles in Washington foresee a possible change of Spanish ministry in Madrid affecting Cuba policy. Sagasta pledges to defend Spain’s integrity and Cuba while Liberals may pursue leniency. Weyler likely recalled and De Lome replaced, signaling closer ties with the new administration. Cuban sympathizers cheer the potential shift as supply bills are addressed and Cortes action may be streamlined. The shift could lead to a new ambassador and altered U S relations without immediate policy upheaval.
