THE FEELING AT WASHINGTON
No Surprise Expressed at the Demon
STATIONS in Spain.

Washington, March 1.-Intense inter
est is felt here tonight in the dispatch
showing the demonstrative feelings ex-
listing in Spain regarding the Cuban
question and the statement that the
government is increasing it's naval
force.
Copies of the Associated Press dis
patches were shown to public men in
terested in the question. No surprise
was expressed at the demonstrations
which have occurred; in fact, such were
expected
The speeches in the senate, extracts
of which have no doubt been published
in the Spanish papers, have had their
influence on the masses of the people,
and they, impulsive, excited and in
splred with patriotism, have thrown
them into an unfriendly mood against
the United States officials. The whole
matter is regarded here as simply that
OF mob violence, of which the Spanish
government has not in any manner been
responsible
AS the case now stands nothing has
happened that can not be easily and
readily adjusted by the means always
at the disposal of diplomacy, and that,
too. in manner that will leave no
stain upon the honor of either of the
parties to this affair.
Even if the Spanish government
should be reluctant to undertake to 40
what is essential to heal the wound vol
unfairly, there is every reason to sup
pose that some one or more great Euro
pean powers who have sound reasons
Tor preventing. If possible, any hostile
collision between the United States ana
spain will exercise their good offices TO
nrlng about a peaceful conclusion OF
the incident.
Senator Lodge said to an Associated
Fress reporter tonight: '"The news from
spain in your dispatches is grave. for
II SHOWS that the Spanish people and
the Spanish editors utterly fail to COM
prehend the situation here. They for
get that they recognized the bellig-
ency OF the confederacy within three
months after hostilities began, while
we allowed 10 years to pass in the last
CUBAN war and one year In this before
moving. We have shown a long for

spite the rcsolutc tone of the Spanish
