The "Orient" has become so

Spanish Opinion.
''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.
In reply to inquiry Senator Sherman
says:
"There is no foundation for the
statement that congress may not, if it
desires, recognize the independence of
anew nation, nor do I think Mr. Olney
contests it, but think the matter ought
to come from the president.
"If, however, congress should pass
a resolution and the president should
veto it, it can be passed by a two thirds
vote of each house and would become a
law, which the president must respect
and obey. "
Preparing for a War.
The Norwegian steamship Jarl, ar
rived from B'.uetields, Nicaragua,
brings news of active preparations
which are going forward down in that
country for a war with Colombia. It is
said that there has been an open
rupture between these two Central
American republics because of a dif
ference of ownership of Great and
Little Corn islands, which are located
forty miles from Bluefields and 100
miles from Bocas del Toro.
Customs Inspector Watson takes de
cided exception to the assertion of the
chief of police that the deserting Mex
ican soldier did not hre his gun at
him. Mr. Watson states emphatically
that the soldier had the muzzle of
the gun within a few feet of his
face when it was discharged, and
Mr. Watson threw his head back as
the ball whizzed by his face. The sol
diers secured horses at the smelter
according to all accounts, and went
north. No one attempted to stop them,
a- d it is not learned that the escape
created any more than a momentary
sensation over the river.
The Boston Transcrint thinks the
election of McKinley a confirmation of
trie oia tradition ttiat the American
people like their presidents to have '
