unless President Grevy apologized

spondent says: At the banquet at
Elysee President Grevy and the
ministers earnestly pressed Alfonso
to accept a special train to the
Spanish frontier. The King ac-
cepted the offer and leaves for
Spain at S.45 on Monday morning.
1.-The Standards Paris dispatch
says the manifestation against
Alfonso would have been contempt
IDLE liz the work Of a handful of
roughs, but it derived Importance
from the vast numbers who partic-
ipated.
Paris, liking Alfonso and suit
left this city on the S.45 train this
morning on his return to Spain.
There was no demonstration by the
populace on their departure.
London, 1.-The Paris correspond
ent of the Times says, Alfonso is
perfectly satisfied of the good faith
of Prime Min ster Ferry as repre-
senting the French government.
The King does not admit for a mo-
ment that the spirit shown on Sat-
Erday by the mob which was excited
by false statements of anarchist
agitatOrs, represented the French
nation. In abridging his stay in
Paris by one half the time intended,
the King desires to diminish the
difficulties that have arisen from his
visit. The Spanish Minister of
Foreign Affairs and the Spanish gov
| eminent agree with the decision of
the King to leave Paris. Alfonso
was quite unaware of his appoint
ment to colOnelcy in Uhlan regi-
ment until he received the stand
and his uniforn simultaneously
Emperor William intended the ap-
pointment as an agreeable surprise.
He would not lend himself to any
thing that would be likely to excite
prejudice against one for whom he
had taken an exceptional liking.
Bismarck had nothing to do, with
the appointment. Alfonso and the
Duke IOf Connaught exchanged
visits on Sunday. President Grevy
went to the depot on Saturday to
greet King Alfonso reluctantly, but
if his manner appeared cold his
words were cordial.
The Madrid correspondent Of the
Times says: The hostile reception
accorded Alfonso in Paris has con-
siderably increased his prestige at
home. His personal courage and
discretion, his dignified bearing
during his progress through the
streets of Paris, his visit to Pres
ident Crews residence at the
| Elysee without escort, fare subjects
of general eulogium and admiration
by Spaniards.
Madrid, 1.-Citizens are highly
incensed over the insults offered to
Alfonso in Paris. Bands of people
paraded the streets yesterday even
ing, insulted Frenchmen and openly
threatened the Frenzy embassy.
The police, however. prevented any
violence. Senior Monet, at meet>
ing of the Democratic club, declared
the insults offered to the King af-
fected the whole Spanish nation.
which would stand by the King.
His utteranceS were received with
loud cheering. Marshal Serrano
tele, sraphed Senior Canovas del Cas-
tillO, the cause of the monarchy de-
manded his presence in Madrid.
Officers of the garrison also held a
meeting at which stirring speeches
against the French were delivered.
Paris, 1.-Alarming reports pre-
vail that the Spanish cabinet will de-
mand that the French government
make a public apology for the in
suits offered to Alfonso, and the
German government will make
Diplomatic remonstrance at the in
dignities to which the Spanish King
was subjected. Radicals violently |
attack President Grevy and Prime
minister Ferry for the course they |
have pursued in the matter. The |
cabinet is divided in opinion as to |
its policy.
Journals here continue to con-
denim the conduct of the populace |
toward Alfonso, pointing out es-
pecially that they were playing into |
the hands of Bismarck.
The Journal Official published the |
fact that President Grevy apollo
gized to King Alfonso for the out
rage on Saturday. ALI French min
listers were present at the banquet
given by President Grevy in honor
of Alfonso at the Palace Elysee on
Sunday evening, except Thebaudin,
minister of war, and Meline, minis
ter of agriculture. President Grevy |
wore the Spanish order of the golden
fleece. King Alfonso conversed for
half an hour after the banquet with
Grevy and Prime Minister Ferry.
Grevy urged the king to remain in
Paris another day.
King Alfonso will reach the
Spanish frontier at midnight. Gen
eral Petite, secretary of President
Grevy, and Due de FernnanuneZ,
Spanish ambassador to France, es-
corted the King to the railway sta
ton. The King made an excellent
impression upon the guests at the
banquet at Elysee. Grevy, referring
thereto, said he never expected to
meet so much good sense, dignity
and GOODNESS in so young a SOY,
ereign.
