WHAT NAY HAPPEN.
II Spain Gets Spunky Minister Taylor
May Demand His PasspOrts.

WASHINGTON. March 1.-THE State De-
partment officials admit the correctness OF
the Madrid cable showing that Secretary
Gresham has made protest and a demand
for disclaimer and an apology from the
Spanish government for the firing the
Allianca. The notable feature of Secretary
Greshams dispatch is found in the state
ment that when an American vessel is on
the usual route, the fact that she is inside
or outside of the three-mile limit does not
affect the merits of the case. From this 1t
is apparent that Secretary Gresham has
taken his stand on the decision in the Ala
bama case, which was practically new die
tum in international law, for it had been
the rule previous to that decision to regard
as beyond question the right of a nation to
detain suspicious vessels passing within the
limit of the three miles from its coast. over

fort to accept the force of this claim, for

as are nearly all nations in such cases, to
make such an acknowledgment, for not
only. would it immensely strengthen the
rebels morally. but it would result In con-
ferring upon thsn certain very important
aids in prosecution of their warfare
secretary Gresham came 10 the State De-
partment to-day in person, looking very
weak, as the result of his illness, but de-
termined to keep the further negotiations
in his own hands. Looking to the future it
is fully expected, in view of the prompt
action of the Spanish minister. here in
promising in advance that If Spain was in
the wrong he would make all proper repara-
ton, that the incident will be speedily and
peacefully settled. If. however, the Spanish
government should be stung by the urgency
shown by the United States in making the
issue into refusing to meet our demands,
