''While I am premier, " said Senor Canovas to an interviewer recently, "Spain will not provoke a conllict with tne United states, but 1 wnl brook no attack on the sovereignty of Spain. say this calmly, but I am resolved to abide by it. This is my last word." Admiral Jose Maria Beranger, the minster of marine, said: "I consider a rupture betwepn Spain and the United istates improbable, but with a view o averting any chance of a conllict the Spanish men of war in Cuban waters have received strict instruction to ,VIU CUV II ltlUU 1 li U LUG U U UCU States. Nevertheless, in order to be prepared for any emergency I have ordered the vessels building abroad and at home for the governmen to be completed rapidly for service The marine infantry will be strongly organized, and all the seamen in the marine districts will be enrolled. Should a war unfortunately arise the mercantile marine would lit out nurner ous privateers, manned by picked crews, which would be capable o in flicting great damage upon American shipping on the high seas and on unfor tinea American seaports." Admiral Beranger expressed his belief that the Spanish navy, in the daring of crews and the strength of the Spanish, was for the Americans. He expressed the hope, however, that Spain would only require her navy to defend her colonial possessions from insurgent criminals without any inter national conflict. What John Sherman Says.
