Still PreparIng for War.

MADRID, Sept 10. Although Spain has
apologi2ed humbly to Emperor William for
the recent mobbing Of the German embassy,
preparations for war continue to be pushed
forward with great energy. All military
commanders have been ordered to report
at once the number of available troops
at their disposal The bitter feeling
provoked against Germany has not
abated jot, and there are grave fears that
instead of dying out it will be further in
tensified by the secret agents of the revolu-
tionary party. King Alfonso still insists,
in the face of popular clamor, in keeping his
old ministry in power; but if the discomfort
continues it is quite likely he will be COM
PEELED to call Senor Saga>ta to the direction
Of affairs And in that event a rupture
with Germany can hardly be averted
1t is rumored that the government has
received information from the man-of- war
NelascO showing that the report that the
Pelew islands have been occupied by Ger
many is not true. Military men here insist
that their comrades at Yap acted under
orders from Madrid and Manila i'll order to
avoid conflict with the Germans.
The campaign against the press is active.
Thirty four papers Cf Madrid have been
prosecuted Caricature journals are being
seized by the Wholesale. The censorship
also prevents true accounts being received
of the expressions of popular wrath against
Germany at Saragossa, Valencia, BARGE
Iona, Granada and twenty other places
King Alfonso drove through the streets
Of Madrid Tuesday without an escort. He
was greeted respectfully by the people.
BERLIN, Sept l0.-Much measiness is felt
here owing to the possibility that other
German vessels in the Pacific under orders
to annex the Cerolines may come into col
lision with Spanish men-of-war.
BOSTON, Sept 10--A Washington special
TO The Herald says: 1T is reported among
the members of the diplomatic corps that

NO DEADHEAD.

The Omaha Herald rises to remark
that Mr.. Blaine will doubtless be de-
lighted to learn that like himself
President Cleveland proposes to be
" no deadhead in the enterprise
only ina different way. When the
President was ready to depart from
Albany for bis Inauguration several
railroads struggled for the favor Of
carrying him free to Washington,
but he refused to be so conveyed.
Upon his arrival at the national cap
ital all the theatres rendered him the
freedom Of their houses, and again
he refused to be accommodated. He
will see the plays when he is so dis
posed or can find time, but he will
pay for his own boxes with his own
money without obligations to any
body. Last of all the President has
stopped the fifty or sixty newspapers
taken at the kWhite House aud paid
for out of the contingent fund. He
proposes to personally subscribe and
pay for all the newspapers he re-
quires out of his own pocket. In
short. Mr.. Cleveland intends to
prove no deadhead in the enterprise.

THE OKLAHOMA BOOMERS.

The Oklahoma boom which was so
extensively advertized to be let off
the 5th inst, seems to be bottled up
for the present. General Hatch is on
the ground watching Captain Couch
and the Captaia is watching the &C.
tion of the United States Senate.
Between them they are in a state of
mastery inactivity. Really it would
be . very serious thing if General
Hatch were compelled to open fire
upon . body of American citizens
whose conduct should prove upon in
vestigation to be lawful and legiti.
mate. On the other hand 1t would be
foolhardy In the boomers to force
their way into Oklahoma If such pro-
eeedinE should be found illegal. The
extreme oarewhich the administration
bsstows upon the subject of tho own
srship Of the disputed lande, concern
ing which . cabinet council was re-

The reports from New York con-

most sanguine entertain no hopes of
his recovery. The trouble is deep
seated and his constitution and ner-

and shattered by the trying ordeal
through which he passed last sum-
mer, that recuperative strength is en-.
tlrely lacking. The Generals con-
dition is anxiously watched by .

would feel his loss deeply. It is q
pity that the hero cannot enjoy the
