NO ALLIANCE AFFAIR.
Firing Upon the Carrie A Lane Not
ANY Diplomatic Incident.

The case Of the schooner Carrie A. Lane.
which arrived at the Delaware Breakwater,
and reported that she had been fired on and
made to give an account OF herself by n
Spanish gunboat on the Cuban coast July IA,
is not likely to prove another Alliance inci-
dent No official Information or complaint
on the subject has reached the State Depart
ment, and, Judging from the statement of
Capt. Quick, the master of the schooner, none
likely to do so.
Senior de Lone, Spanish Minister to the
United States, was seen at his villa in Swamp
Scott Mass, where he, his family and Lega-
ton are for the summer In relation to the re-
ported firing by n Spanish man of-war upon
the American schooner Carrie A. Lane, while
off Cuba. The Minister stated that, even ii
the report was true, the flag had not been
ilredupon, and no insult had been made to this
country. He quoted Justice Fields opinion
on the international law wherein II was
stated that the men-of-war of the different
nations were virtually the police of the high
seas. and 1t was their right to signal vessels
to stop that the commanders Of warships
thought were not engaged in legitimate bust
ness. II they did not stop after the signals
had been given, then two blank shots should
be fired.

BIG DIAMOND DEAL.
Combination to Control the World >
Output $4,000, 900 Involved.

A go, 600 900 diamond deal has Just been
cOnsummated in London, Eng, according
to private adyices received by Maiden lane
New York, diamond dealers. The rich Lon
don diamond syndicate, composed Of Charles
Ahrahams, Werner, Bert X Co.. Joseph
Brothers and ]. Barnato. has made contra u
with the De Beefs-Kimb erley syndicate ol
Africa, BY which the latter agrees TO de-
liver TO the London syndicate its entire out
put OF rough diamonds until July, 1897.
For this concession the London syndicate
pays to the De Beers Kimberley syndicate
an advance Of ten per cent over the price
now existing. This means that H. the an
nual output of the mines controlled by the
South African corporation amounts to $50
000 600, the De Beers-kimberley syndicate
will make $4,000 600 clear profit over the
profit it would make under present cOndi-
tions. Just what the ordinary revenue OF
this colossal syndicate is, not to speak Of
this extra 1900, 600 will he made plain 10y
the figures given below.
The immediate result OF this deal will be-
according to Leopold Stern, Of Stern Broth
ers Co.. to send the cost of diamonds up-
ward gradually, but with certainty. With
the exception OF few independent mines in
South Africa, the De Beers-kinberley syndi-
cate controls the world supply Of diamonds
lis former contract with the London syndi-
cate still has a year 10 run, so that the con-
tract Just made covers the time from July,
