Spanish minister to inform the United
States government that Spain was eX
ertlng all her power to amply protect the
United States legation and consulates
and that he could give assurances that
they would be protected from any harm:
also that Americans visiting and residing
III Spain would be made safe from the
attacks of mobs and other riotous assem-
DlageS. The communication from the
Spanish minister is couched in pleasant
and friendly terms and reiterated on his
own behalf assurances of his govern
ment that no outrages should be perpe-
trated upon Americans in Spain.
Secretary Olney submitted another
communication which created profound
surprise. 1t was a message from the
Spanish minister of foreign affairs in

government diSavoW the action of the
Senate as a condition precedent to con-
tinued friendly relations between the
two governments. This was something
the administration had not expected to
be confronted with and the President
and cabinet ministers present were in
cllned to excuse It to some extent upon
the basis of the ignorance of Spanish
ministers of the United States and their
form of government.
line only result OF the conference at
Secretary OlneyS was practical agree
ment that the secretary of state should
promptly respond in kindly terms to the
communication of Minister de LONE and
through him thank his government for
its readiness to protect Americans and
American interests in Spain. The de-
mand for a disclaimer of the Senates
resolution will be ignored, but at the
same time there is reason to assert that
the President is not regardless of the
critical situation.

a measure of precaution, will take steps
to bring an efficient fleet of war vessels
near enough together to mass them
promptly or at any point that may be
threatened.
