WAsHiNoT0N Especial. - Without
waiting for the demand Of the United
States, Spain took prompt steps to
make amends for the outburst at Bar
celona. A cablegram was received
from United States Minister TAYLOR ct
Madrid. He says the Spanish minis.
ter OF state expressed deep regret ct
the Barcelona affair and offered com
plete reparation. The dispatch added
that measures were taken for the pro.
tectton Of the United States legation.
This act will doubtless tend to greatly
relieve the situation and prevent a
serinus outcome Of the mobs attack on
our consulate at Barcelona.

crowd assembled to protest against
the action Of the United States SEN
ate. After hearing several incendiary
haran9ues the mob which numbered
fully fifteen thousand people rushed
to the United States consulate and
began hooting and throwing stones.
The police had q desperate struggle
with them but finally dispersed them.
The mob was led by students who
kept up the agitation all night.
THE MASSES INDIGNANT.
MADRID. - Especially = Cable dis
patches received from the United
States are increasing the feeling Of
indignation which was aroused among
the masses when it became known
that the United States senate favored
the recognition of Cuban insurgents
as belligei ents and the nswspspers
here confirm the report that the
SPANISH NAVAL SQUADRON,
consisting Of four cruisers and q dis

out delay. In addition Spanish naval
officers and marines are to be attached
to the Spanish mail boats which are
to be armed and equipped as auxiliary
cruisers. The greatest activity is be.
ing displayed at the government navy
yards and every preparation possible
Is being made by naval and military
forces for most serious eventualities.

their vehement protests against the
action Of the United States senate.
This city is now quiet and the
prompt measures take by the auth.
critics to suppress all disorders pre-.
vented demonstrations and the large
force of police present everywhere
would not be. tolerated. The day
however, has not been SO quiet else.

BOUND TO WRECK THE CONSULATE.
Barcelona maintained the reputa.
ton it made for fomenting unfriendly
demonstrations against the United
States aud mounted gen 'darmes have
been kept busy patrolling the city
and dispensing gatherings Of persons
plotting to wreck wrath upon the rep
resentatives Of the United States gov
ernment In this city.
Renewed attempts were made By
crowds during the day to do violence
to the United States consulate. They
were repeatedly charged by the police
and dispersed only to form in some
other place with q persistent deter
mination to do their will upon til.
consulate. Such tenacityf Of purposl
indicate that mischief makers are a
work in the crowd to make them fol

WOMEN DISCOVER BRYAN.
They Found Out His Ability and Told
About Tt.

Indianapolis, July PA. w Scott, an
attorney of Lincoln, Neb, who is a per-
sonal friend and political enemy of Will
liam jennings Bryan is in the city the
guest of his brother J. NJ. Scott, S61
North Delaware street. Mr.. Scott has
been city attorney of Lincoln and iden-
titled with the politics of the state.
Speaking of Mr.. Bryan he said:
If 1 were writing a novel I would
not dare to make any hero meet with
half the success that has come to Mr..
Bryan. It is to be remembered that
Mr.. Bryan has lived in Lincoln only
nine years, coming there a poor man.
How was he regarded previous to
his Nomination.
He was always respected, for he is
a man on whose character there is not
spot. He had no bad habits and per
sonally he is a fine gentleman. But
the women of Lincoln are entitled to
the honor of discovering Mr.. Bryan.
When he came there he united with
the church and also with several liter
airy societies. 1t was not a great while
until the women were talking about
him and telling US men what a smart
man he was. The men began to ask
concerning the new arrival, but for
some time he was not considered any
thing more than a promising young
man -

W.P. TOMLTNSON RETURNS
From the St Louis Convention
Doesn't Expect Bolt.

Colonel W. P. Tomlinson returned to-
day from St. Louis, where he attended
the silver convention.
Bryan will be nominated by the Pop
ulist convention" said he to a Journal
reporter, land I do not believe there
will be a bolt. The feeling was very
intense against the Endorsement Of
Bryan in the south, and I think that
some southern man will be nominated
for vice president and that will satisfy
them.
IF it had not been for the action of
the Kansas delegation the middle of the
road Popultsts would have won. The
influence of Jerry Simpson, w. A. Har-
ris, Senator PETER and John Breiden-
thai had more to do with changing the
sentiment than anything else. They
were we'll known and their opinions
were respected.
There was no opposition to Bryan in
the silver convention"
