QUEEN ISABELLA MAKING MORE TROUBLE IN
SPAIN.
New YORK, September PA Paris spe-
cial furnishes the following from Madrid
When Queen Isabella came 10 Madrid It was
rumored that she would return 10 Paris in
mediately upon the ACCOMPLISHMENT OF Queen
Christina. Her prolonged stay causes much
comment, and 1t IL remarked that she shows
particular regard on the one hand 10 Mar
shals Campos, Concba, and General Prem
dergast, and other chiefs OF the dynastic
Liberal opposition, whose ladies' crowd
her salon, and that, on the other hand, MI
her old servants in the arist0cracy and IN
the army now flock to the palace as they
have never done since the restoration.
When she drives out with her son to wit
ness the buIl-6ghts on Sundays even the
lower classes cheer her. Some say she
does all this to spite her successor, bot the
real object Of Isabelia's prolonged stay IS
that she is pressing her long-standiDg
claims on the treasury, and the Cabinet is
in fix. She Is entitled TO over $1,000. 600
in capital. besides years OF accumulated
interest In old arrears due her on her
eiyi! list, and OH the portion left her by
her father, Ferdinand With. she does cot
press her claims very vigorously. Know.
ing the embarrassments OF the treasury, she
only seeks their recognition and an ANIMAL
payment. This, the lawyers say, the Gov
eminent cannot refuse. Still IL is not easy
for the Cabinet 70 ask the courts to agree TO
her demands and add a new burden TO the
~
the restoration with deficits that range. from
S26, 000,0 900 TO S29,000,000. Isabella has re-
jected Senior Csnovas's suggestion 10
come and live at Alcazar Sevill with
the Princess Isabel and the two
young infantas. and thus reduce her
expenses. Senior Canovas insisted rs
a preliminary condition on the Queen
dismissing all her present entouiage
and forming her household Of Government
nominees. There have been some very hot
family discussions at the palace on the sub
iect. II is said the Queen and King Alfonso
spoke their minds with unusual freedom.
The result is that Isabella returns TO Paris
and maintains all her claims.
