spain Asaan Diviasd.

BY Associtsd Press.
LONDON, Sept. 2l.-Reuter's Telegraph
Company having received the following
summary of the sltustion In Spain: Siren
u0us efforts are being made to oust Senol
Csnovss del Costello, the Prime Minister.
Three courts exist at present, namely
King Alfonso, ex-Queen Christina, (the
latter supported by the remaining partisanf
of Marshall Espartero) and ex-Queen 1sa-
bells's Court, at Santander. ThA latter IL
actively intriguing. She is principally In.
fuenced by the clergy, but in lesser degree
by Senior Sagasta, Marshall Serrano and
General Novslick. It is believed these
latter would not hesitate to adhere to the
policy of religious ipolerance, In order to
secure the alliance of the Isabellists party.
Isabella has distributed portraits Of herself
and children to all the generals.
At present the object of both Christina's e
and Issbella's intrignes Is to secure the
restitution of their property by the Spanish
Treasury. They claim respectively forty
millions and thirty-six million pestos.
Senior Canova del Castillo positively re.
fuses these demands. A member of the
party now In power recently expressed the
opinion that the object of the liberation
clause in the constitution, was merely to
give satisfaction abroad, but. the govern
ment would not allow any non-Cathollc
creed to attempt to establish itself in Spain.
In this connection Madrid telegram to-
day states that the government has ap-
proved the conduct of the prefect Of Valla-
dolid, who forbade the sale of protestant
bibles in the streets of that place.

By Associated Press.
LONDON, Sept. 21.-The correspondent of
the "Times" at Belgrade in despatch to
that paper says he doubts whether it is pos
slble to ignore Prince Milan's proclamation
as King, as the priests and the masses OF
the people side with General Tickernayef
and the Russians. The correspondent also
says "Servia now believes in victory, and !
must say this belief is not surprising to any
one."
The Servian- -Morava army occupies a
strong position forming a semicircle from
Alexinatz and Deligrad around to Dipais
and Vilaki
The Turkish army rs more concentrated
but as it is inla valley between the left and
right of the Servian positions, the Turks
would not have much chance of advancing
further. II is also asserted that the Turki
lack food. Deserters assert that when
changing their camping grouud the Turks
burn their tents. The Servians believe thif
is consequence of the appearance of the
plague"

The Shooting Yesterday NJ Cfeeo'
BY Associated Press.
CREEDMooR, Sept. 81, II A. M.-The
morning is the least cloudy, with the pros
pect of Frightening before an hour. A stiff
wind is blowing dead from the targets to
the firing points. The arrangements,
under the direction of Col. G. B. Mitchell,
who acted as referee at the match of Dolly
mount, last year, are admirably conducted,
and only those entitled to positions at the
firing points are allowed there. At the
present time about 1900 people have
gathered at the grounds, and the general
Impression is that the Irish will win. In
deed, this seems to be the desire on all hands.
It has been arranged that the prizes shall
be distributed tomorrow (Friday) evening,
at the State Arsenel, corner of Seventh
avenue and Thirty-dfth street. The foreign
teams will be present.
11.45 A. M.-Johnson's (Irish) first three
shots were bull's-eyes. The Irish shoot
more slowly than the Americans, and at this
time it is impossible to make comparison
on account of the unequal number of shots
fired respectively.
LATER.
The Americans were victorious in the Rifle
match, beating the Irish team by clever
points.

threatened to drive the Indians out. One
Indian has recently been murdered by white
