ABOUT one month ago Representative
Grosyenor, of Ohio, introduced in Congress a
series of joint resolutions calling upon the
heads of the different departments to inform
Congress how many, if any, aliens were en-
ployed in their departments. Up to the ad-
ioumment of Congress replies had been re-
ceiycd from the Secretary Of State and the
Attorney General Both said that there were
no aliens employed in their departments.
Investigation into their departments promise
better results During the past month the
Clerks Of the Supreme Court of the District
of Columbia have been buster with natumliza-
ton cases than they have been for a long
period. Since May II no less than fifty-six
persons have taken out their papers. Ordi-
narily the naturalization cases in the District
for similar period of time, according to the
statement of the Clerks, is about eight. From
the records of the court the names of all
those natualized since May ia were obtained
to-day, and the investigation, which, from
the difficulties attending it, could not be
made complete, reveals eighteen employees of
the different departments who were not
citizens Of the United States. Some Of these
are holding positions Of great importance,
aud when the statements of the heads Of the
different departments, in response to the
inquiry of Congress are submitted, they will
no doubt create no little stir.

MADRID, June 22.-United States Min
lister Taylor has been in Madrid since
Tuesday morning and has seen the Duke
of Tetuan twice The duke received him
very cordially. All of the Madrid news
papers comment sharply on the nomina-
tion of Mckinley and the illusions to n
more active policy in regard to Cuba EN-
bodied in the Republican platform. The
papers applaud the purpose of the govern
ment to attempt to quell the insurrection
before a new American president takes
Office. Among the governing classes and
people best acquainted with the situation
in Cuba the idea Is gaining ground that
the relations of Spain with her colony and
with the United States will come to u
crisis this winter
