Country's Policy.

MADRID, Oct. 4.-[New York Herald
Cable-Special to The BEE. l-Senor Cas-
tellar, at q banquet Of 1900 republicans and
liberals at Barcelona, made q speech very
favorable to Senior Sagasta and the liberal
policy. He thinks it best to accematize the
parliamentary government and insure the
triumph of progressive reforms so as TO con-
solidate public liberties and insure the tran
guilty and prosperity of Spain. Senor Cas-
tellar believes that personal government dis
appeared with the death Of Alfonso XII.
Conservatives uselessly try to revive
it by opposing the re-establshment
Of universal suffrage. Senor CASTELAR,
wants to get that voted before all other
forms, military or economical. He declares
himself still, in principle, free trader, but
as n statesman, would enforce the protection
of native productions and agriculture against
nations not disposed for a reciprocity OF
concessions or treaties, like England in the
cattle trade with Spain. Senor CASTELAR, says
all Spanish republicans favor closer relations
with France. The monarchy inclines toward
Germany, having given her treaty OF COM
merce detrimental to Spanish interests. The
true policy of Spain ought to be, at home,
liberal and democratic with retrenchment
of the army and navy estimates, abro ad
neutrality, or Spain will, like Italy,
plunge into unnecessary armaments
entailing deficits and an increase of taxation
to support the policy of alliances against ma
tional aspirations and interests Senor Cas-
tellar thinks the Spanish monarchy, by imi-
tating England under Queen Victoria, will
last longer and be more popular.

This afternoon the Canadian Pacific OBJ
tanned another injunction setting forth that
the Red River Valley road was not a govern
mcnt road but had been formally handed
over to the Northern Pacific. This second
attempt to balk the Northern Pacific only
increased the determination Of the citizens,
and monster indignation meeting was held
tonight. The attorney general expresses
his determination to effect crossing to, NOR
row morning at all hazards. Fully 5000 citi-
zens tonight enrolled themselves as special
constables to act for the Northern Pacific

BERLIN, Oct. "a New York Herald
Cable-Special to The BEE. The emperor
leaves on Sunday for Friederichsruhe. He
will spend the night under Prince Bismarck's
roof and arrive on Monday in Hamburg,
where great festivities are being prepared
for him in celebration Of Hamburg's recep-
tion into the German customs union, an
event which was practically consummated on
the 18th Of this month. Prince Bismarck
will not accompany the emperor.
A South German paper contains sensa-
tional article about court life in Stuttgart,
stating that King Charles is actually the tool
of three American adventurers who profess to
be spiritualists. Lately the king has created
one of these American baron. Another
was made a privy counsellor. Whilst the
king is very economical himself these Amer
leans dispose lavishly Of his money The
story is so sensational that 1t reminds one Of
the late unfortunate Bavarian king, Ludwig.

mission resumed its sitting to-day Sir Charles
Russell, counsel for Parnell, demanded the
production of certain letters which the Times
possessed and which were alleged to have
been written by Dillon, Blggar and other
memers of parliament. He SAID that Soames,
the Times solicitor, had filed an affidavit
affirming that the Times had: received
the documents from an American named
Roberts; that some Of them proved to be
bogus, and that on this account they had not
been used in the ODonnell case. This ad-
mission that somebody was supplying the
Times with forged letters, said Sir Charles,
had a direct bearing upon the ParnellEgan
forgeries. The documents must therefore
be produced.
Attorney General Webster held that the
documents demanded were not material to
the issue. The affidavit of Soames showed
clearly that somebody had been trying to
trick the Times, and the knowledge of the
trick had been communicated to Parnell's
solicitor.
