spain Is sim Excited.

MADRID, March 3.-This city Is now
quiet, the prompt measures taken By the
authorities TO suppress all disorders and
prevent demonstrations and tho large
forces Of police present everywhere having
proved TO the people that lawless acts
would not be tolerated
Tho abortive attempt Of disordorly stu
dents TO make demonstration before the
United States legation has been the only
overt act, though the excitement OF the
public mind over the Cuban question still
runs high.
Tho day has not been so quiet elsewhere
in Spain, and attempts at noisy demon
strations Of protest against the United
States are reported from several points
Barcelona has maintained the reputation
80 mado Sunday for fomenting unfriondly
demonstrations against the United States
and the mounted gendarmes have been
kept busy patrolling the city and dispersI
ing gatherings of persons plotting TO wrenll
their wrath upon the representative of thd
United States government in that city.
Ronowed attempts were made by crowdd
during the day 60 do violence to the Until
ed States consulate. They were repeated
ly charged by the police and dispersed, onl
" to form in sOmo other place, with per-
sistent determination TO do their viii upon
the consulate. Such tenacity of purpose
indicates that mischief makers arc at work
in tho crowd to make them follow mp their
hostile course against the consulate.
Tho consul for Ecuador here denies the
statement in The Heraldo, cahled to the
Associated Press, that tho president Of
Ecuador has asked the queen regent Of
Spain to grant independence to the Gu
bans

snnIn rromnl1r AnoIorIle..

WAsHNGToN, March 3. - Spain has
apologized 90 the United States for the at
tack on tho American consulate at BARGE
Iona. The apology came through regular
diplomatic channels. It bore date Of sun
day the day the riot occurred, so that
there was no delay on the part of Spain in
promptly disayowing the act Of the mob.
Full roparatlon Is offered.
As soon rs the news Of the riot reached
Washington the Spanish minister called
on Secretary Olney and gave verbal assur-
ancos that Spain would make prompt and
complete reparation. Secretary Olnoy,
however, sont a cable dispatch 90 Minister
Taylor at Madrid calling for a statement
Of the circumstances. Before his inquiry
could ho acted upon came the telegram
from tho American minister saying that
the minister Of state had called and apollo
gized and offered full reparation.
This dispatch was laid before the presi-
dent and aftorward given TO the press. 1t
has a soothing effect upon the Cuban war
spirit, which was very intonse. II fore
stalled any action by tho executive and
leaves no excuse for bellicose demonstra-
tions in congress based on the Barcelona
incident

ALBANY, March 3.-The State Vital sta
tistics Bulletin for January says; "There
were 10, l16 deaths during tho month and
an estimated death rate Of 1856 there hav-
ing been an average daily mortality OF
32S, against one Of 3O5 in December and
Of 35l in January, 1895. The large in
crease in mortality which for several years
has been reported in January over De-
combcr, due TO grip, has not occurred.
There has been a remarkable epidemic OF
iaundice in the Hudson valley district,
and the reports Of death from jaundice
elsewhere in the state indicate its probably
moro widespread distribution"

views Expressed In European Capitals.
HAVANA, March 3.-The Indignation
here over the action OF congress regarding
the belligerency Of the insurgents increases
as the particulars Of the debate In congress
are received.
The editorials in the press. however, are
not offensive toward the United States.
The demonstrations OF loyalty 60 Spain
are energetic and are displayed by public
conversations. Business circles await the
outcome with liyoly interest, as may be
imagined.
IL is asserted that the demonstrations
will be kept within prudent bounds, and
there is no fear that the American consul
general win be in any way disturbed. In
fact, Mr.. Williams is highly esteemed per-
sonally and Is well assured of courteous
treatment at the hands Of the Havana
public
Considerable indignation is expressed
here IN official circles at the statements
attributed TO Senator sherman in tho
United States senate charging Captain
General Woyler with unlimited crimes
during tho last revolution, as the matter
is quoted here, and when acting as COM
mander OF a Spanish column. Tho friends
OF General Weyler claim it IS not true that
he committed the acts attributed TO him,
as Il he had behaved in the manner do
scribed, he would have been punished by
the general IN chief.
Continuing, the friends Of General Woy-
Ter assert that the policy Of the insurgents
now, as before, is to charge Spanish Off
GERS who distinguish themselves i'm fight
ing with abominahle crimes In order that
those officers may be transferred 10 other
posts or be sent back TO Spain. General
Weylors friends insist that not one OF the
acts attributed TO him has been proved TO
be correct, and they hold that not the
slightest shadow of truth surrounds them.
In the last engagement which Colonel
Arminam had with the Insurgents in the
district OF Sancti Spiritus the leader, Sera-
fin Sanchez. Is reported to have been
wounded. Ten insurgents were killed and
Is wounded, among thom Jesus Zayas,
Ignaoio Lara and Manuel Santillan.
Among Is political prisoners who have
arrived from Pinar del Rio is Judge Man
tua.
Antonio Maceo Is still making his way
toward the west and has divided his
forces into small bands about Guira and
Alquizar. IL is reported that he IS seeking
to divert tho attention Of the troops from
the Matanzas coast SO as TO allow an ex-
poctcd expedition 10 land its forces.
