WASHINGTON, March 22.-Minister
Muruaga, of Spain about week ago
forwarded his resignation to his gov
eminent. Tho step WAS taken because
OF certain criticisms made in Cuba The
resignation WAS Withdrawn at the re-
quest of the Spanish government. This
is regarded as closing that phase OF tho
recent agitation, SO that Senior Muruaga
will continue as minister from Spain
until further action is taken. There is
reason to believe, however. that he will
ask for a leave of absence as soon as
affairs assume more pacific aspect.
The reply OF Spain to Secretary
Gresham's demand for apology on tho
Alliance matter WAS not received to day,
and there is an apparent cessation of

Walker G. Hammer, late teller of the
First National Bank, in mlsspproprIsts

will DO remembered that when Ham.
ner's shortage OF s25, 900 was discovered
on February 25, last, O number of
checks, sggregating $4,000. drawn by
various parties on the dilf,rent banks of
this city and endorsed by Pannill, were
found in the teller's cash box.
Some OF the checks were two OF shres
mouths old and were found to haye ham
deposited by Pannill anywhere tom
two to eighsy-four times, this fact be-
ing developed by the deposits slips 70 ade

were kept locked in the teller's cash
box only to DO taken out from time to

CHICAGO, March 22.-The Record SAYS:
"Chicago is to be the national political
centre next year and ailvor will be the
dominant issue in the presidential cam.
campaign"
This straightforward statement WAS
made by man who Is recognized as q
leading factor of the silver propaganda
and 1t was conceded by number of
conservative local financial men to be
tho only logical conclusion which could
be drawn from series of suggestive
recent events.
plan Of campaign has been laid ont
which will bring the headquarters of
tho silver propaganda from Denver to
Chicago and already the boast is made
'hnt silver will split tho Democratic
and Republican perties," aud tho AL
leghsney mountains next year will be
tho great divide which will separate the
Yellow Atlantic cost from the White
Mississippi Valley snd Pacific cost.
This plan contemplstes On arbitrary
demand on both national conventions
for it Is said that the silver men Of both
parties have arrived ct perfect under
bI~hulDS III tho uStlOE, Luab q plank OF
"free silver coinage st the ratio of 16
to 1, independent OF other commercial
nations" muct be placed in the plat
forms OF thoir respective parties.
According to this plan, If either or
both conventions refuse to be dictated
to by the aggressive silverites, tho
silver delegates will withdraw and an
independent silver party will be formed
with headquarters in Chicago. The
first choice OF the leader of This politi-
cal enterprise ia Congressman j. S.
Sibley, OF Pennsylvania, Democrat.
The second choice falls upon R. P.
Bland, Of Missouri, Democrat; w. j.
Bryan, OF Nebraska. o Democrats; Sena.
tor FL. nj. Teller, of Colorado, Repub.
lican, and Senator John P. Jones, Of
Nevada, q Republican.
Ii Is taken for granted by the silver
mon thss organized labor and the people
will combine with them to form the
silver party, and they have expressed o
Willingness to accept governmental con-
troll of transportation provided that this
is made subordinate issue to free

GREAT BRITAIN AND NICARAGUA.
Hhe rrouble Has Not Assumed Belligor.
ent ASPECT.

ent Aspect.
WASHINGTON, March 23-Tho trouble
between Great Britain aud Nicaragua,
which has threatened to entspgle the
United States hes not assumed the
belligerent aspect made out by recent
reports. oThese untrue reports were to
the effect that Great Britain has assured
tho United States that there will be no
encroachment on American soil and
that with this understanding Great
Britain may lombard Groytown without
the intervention Of the United States
That Great Britain made any such
representations is discredited by those
best advised on the subject. From the
standpoint Of Nicaraguan officials, the
question Is readily susceptible OF peace
full adjustment, and there is not re-
mote chance OF a hombardment Of Grey.
town. From the British stand point the
trouble with Nicaragua Is one in which
the interests of the united States and
Great Britain are united rather than
opposed. When the British vice-consul,
Mr.. Hatch, was expelled from Near
aqua, several oisiz.ns of the United
Ssates were also expelled. The latter
wero allowed to return, but it is be-
loved an indemnity for their expulsion
WAS quietly paid.
