LONDON, Sept. D8.--A number Of the
French newspapers are conducting POSI-
tive campaign against King Alfonso, De-
cause they are convinced that henceforth he
will be an ally Of Germany, as he has ac-
cepted the colonelcy of the Uhlans Rarri-
sUned at Strassburg, IN Alsace, and has ap-
| peared publicly In the uniform of his new
| regiment. The papers especially resent the
choice of regiment qusrtered at Strass-
| burg.
Ia EpocG, published in Madrid, is indig-
nant concerning the articles that have ap-
peared In French newspapers relative to the
acceptance by King Alfonso Of q Uhlan col.
onelcy. It denies that an alliance has been
formed between Spain and Germany, and
advises King Alfonso to shorten his journey
home. %. ~ 5''nfi +"
