NOT UNDER PRESSURE
Spain Had Ordered Review of the
Case BEFORE OlneY SPOKE

WASHINGTON, May 70, 1S96.-It is as
sured that when the official correspondence
relating to the Competitor incident is
made public, it will be found that the ac-
ton of the Spanish Cabinet in directing
that the proceedings of the court martial
should be forwarded to Madrid for re-
vision (though only announced by our
State Department yesterday was actually
taken. on Friday last and that Minister
the fact to Secretary Olney.
Some of the passages in the Spanish
speech from the throne referring TO the
United States when more Gcheerfully trans
script obtainable yesterday, will probably
attract considerable attention in Congress
and elsewhere. For instance the King
is made to say that If the rebellion has
not been completely subdued, it is due
received from abroad (meaning the United
States),. from those who have been
deceived into favoring the revolutionists
by false statements Of the political situa-
ton in Cuba, and WHO have also been
what they cannot conquef, as. pursued BY
the insurgents is indentical with the
means by which other rebellions in Amer
lea ana Europe, animated by higher aims
ard with more reasonable probabilities
been pursued to success. Even this help
(he address continues) would have been
insufficient but for the 'chirnerical hope
spread among the insurgents that a great
nation will take hand in their illegiti-
violation of public rights. That is to
say that the United States will accord
belligerent rights to Cuba
The promises of autonomy to Cuba and
Porte Rico held out in the message are
Identical with those foreshadowed in
the dispatches of Nav g.

BOYCOTTED By BOYS
Troubles in the Brigade
Over a Post Card for
Back Dues.
TREASURER BRIEKERHOFF CRITICIZED
Young Soldiers object to Posting
Arrears on Blackboards for
the Girls Information.

The members of the Fourth Company,
Boys Brigade, are very bitter over the
action of Lieutenant F. Brinkerkoff. who
is Treasurer of the organization.
About a month ago notifications were
sent to all the members notifying them
of their arrearage in dues 1t is the prac-
stice to notify members of their arrearages
but instead of letter being sent out the
notice was sent on, postal cards. This
did not please the soldier boys, who think
that Lieutenant Brinkerhoff committed a
gross mistake in sending such an open
notification.
In consequence the boys boycotted the
Treasurer, and Captain Laws informed
them that the names and amount of those
in arrears would Tbe placed en- a black
board in the company's room.
That caused another feeling Of dissats-
faction, as the room used by the company
is also used as a Sunday school room
by the young ladies of the church, and the
boys did not want their young lady
friends to know of their financial stand
ing.
One of the members said last night
Il will not have my name PLACED on bull
letin board, and if 1t appears will scratch
it off. We boys would have paid our dues
mad not the notice to do been sent ON a
poSldl Cdiu- L udu d SOOd Illiu " IGluIli
mine to the Post Office, as the notice is
in the shape of a dun, and that is not al
lowed by the postal laws
Another member of the company says
that a feeling apparently exists in the
company. Some of the members have
more privileges than others. A move
ment is on foot to raise the height limit.
1t now stands that any young man of
good moral standing of five feet two and
{. half inches in height may become a
mepe nreaea Snosn ne bnY ~ bs e nv
would have to resign. The limit will
likely be raised to five feet five inches.

Spanish Determination I'm

able Successor.

MADRID, May u. 1S96.-Upon the occa-
sion of the opening of the new Cortes
yesterday Queen Regent Christina, accom-
panied by the young King, Alfonso XIII,
who wore the uniform Of a pupil of the
Military School, and the Infanta Isabella,
drove to the Chamber of Deputies in an
open carriage. The streets were thronged
with people and the approaches to the
Chamber were lined with troops. When
the Queen Regent took her seat upon the
throne, with the King by her side the Sen
ators and Deputies assembled in joint ses-
sion cheered their Majesties with great
enthusiasm. Premier Canovas del Cas-
tille then handed to the Queen Regent a
copy OF the speech from the throne, which
her Majesty read in firm tones and with
clear enunciation. Besides the references
to Cuba already cabled, the speech re-
