Berlin Neust Nachrichten express the
Opinion that the vote on the Cuban reSo-
lutons in the United States Senate ought
to arouse Spain to vindicate its exist
ence and to show that it is not stone
dead instead of wasting its powers in
party squabbles.
The Germania expresses the hope that

that the Spanish excitement is justified,
and treat il with GOODNESS and calmness.
The Boersen ourier says the United
States government is driving toward a
conflict with Spain. This and other agl-

commenting editOrially upon the action
of the United States Senate in passing the
resolutions giving to the insurgents in
Cuba the rights of belligerents, says Pres
ldent Cleveland ought not 10 act hastily
for numerous reasons. Should the United
States recognize the Cubans as bellig-
erentS, the News says, the result would
almost certainly be war between Spain
and America. The issue of such a con-
fiict however. could not be doubtful
should the Americans go into it with theil
whole heart, but this they probably would
not do as the war would involve neither
the national security nor honor. Gen
Campos believed that recognition of the
Cubans would be a blessing in disguise
because should the United States send
troops TO Cuba there would be regular
battles in place of the desultory fighting
which has thus far marked the campaign
i'm the island. The entire army, navy and
militia forces of the United States, ac-
COrding to Senior Emilio Castelar,, would
not be adequate to the success of such an
enterprise. IAN alliance between Spain

such an alliance might be anticipated by

Paris, March a.. The Figaro says the
vote in the United States Senate in re-
gard to Cuba can hardly be excused and
declares that Europe will some day unite
against this style of MOnrOeism.
Commenting upon the action of the
United States Senate in regard
TO Cuba the Lbre Parole thinks
that the Intervention of the
government of the United States is as
ridiculous as it is aggravating. Spain, the
paper says, repulsed Prince Bismarck, and
certainly she will not retreat before Sher-
man, the brother of the slayer of the
Colorado Indians.
