WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-The election of
Republican from Maryland in the place of
Senator German will give the straight Re-
publicans forty-four in the Senate, with
Kyle, of South Dakota, in reserve if he
should be needed he having been reelected
with that understanding by Republican
votes. The Senate has now one vacant seat,
Oregon having only one senator. Germans
successor will not take his seat however,
until 1859, seventeen months hence. In the
meantime there will be elections of sena-
tors in fifteen States and of that list the
Republicans stand an excellent chance in
West Virginia, North Dakota, Wisconsin,
New Jersey, Indiana, California and New
York, which are now represented by Dem
ocrats whose terms expire in 1899. There is
not State in which the Republicans can,
by any possibility, lose a senator next year,
except in the event of landslide, not now
even remotely seen or suggested. 1t is per-
fectly safe to predict that the Republicans
will have absolute control of the United
States Senate during the Fifty-sixth Con-
gress beginning March 4, 1899, independent
of the free-silver contingent and in spite of
it. Then, and not till then, is there much
prospect for currency and banking reform

SENSATION AT MADRID
FORMER MINISTER TAYLOR HAS
AROUSED THE SPANIARDS.
His Magazine Article Criticised-Re-
ply from Senior Salvani, Who
Quotes Private Conversation.

NEW YORK, Nov. ga special to the
World from Madrid says: Something of a
sensation has been caused in Madrid by
kilograms fro m Amer ca ep tcmizi g an arti
Gle on Cuba written for an American maya
zine by former Minister Taylor. The
Spaniards are particularly annoyed because
Mr.. Taylor has obtained from the Spanish
daily press and from utterances of Spanish
statesmen all his information about lack of
honesty in the elections and in the parlia-
mentary government and about the no.
torious abuses in Spanish home administra-
ton even at the capital. The conclusion Mr..
Taylor draws from such premises in favor
of American Intervention for the settlement
of the Cuban question has given much Of
Tense at court and in official and political
circles because it is deemed calculated to
counteract the favorable impression the
Spanish note had made in the highest cir
cIes at Washington, including the President
and his Cabinet, according to kilograms re-
ceived by the Madrid press and the official
dispatches from Minister Dupuy De LONE
to the Cabinet.
Some Spanish papers affect to make light
of Mr.. Taylors statements and say they
will not alter the effects Of the Spanish note,
which has skillfully warded off for the
time the action by the American govern
ment, which has limited at Minister Wood
fords note of Sept 20, and which made out
so strong case on the grounds of interna-
tional law against liberation of flibuster-
ing expeditions and against moral and ma
terial assistance being given to the inSur-
gents from the United States. The I'm
parcial says the Spanish government will
take steps to counteract the effects of Mr..
Taylor's article upon public opinion and the
government in America.

SENTENCE TOO SEVERE.
Private HammOnN's Punishme emit Miti-

CHICAGO, Nov. 3.-Private Charles Ham,
mond who was dragged by his heels before
summary court-martal at Fort Sheridan
four weeks ago on the orders of Captain
Lowering to answer to charge of desertion
will serve but half the sentence imposed on
him by the court-martial. Hammond was
sentenced by the military court to go to
prison for a year at hard labor and to for
felt all pay for this period In addition the
verdict provided for the dishonorable dis
charge of the private. General Brooke how
ever, has reviewed the verdict, criticised it
and cut down the punishment. AS mitigated
by General Brooke the sentence compeIs
Hammond to serve in prison only six
months. His pay is reduced by $40 a month
and there is no provision for dishonorable
discharge, that being deemed too severe by
the commander. In his review the general
said the sentence was excessive BY this
action the stigma of dishonorable discharge
Will not attach to private Hammond and
after he has served six months he will be
restored to his former position in the army.

MADRID, Nov. S.-Senor Salvani has
written & letter to the newspapers here,
in reply to the article on the Cuban ques-
ton published in an American magazine,
of which article Hannis Taylor, the former
United States minister to Spain is the au-
thor. The senior says:
Il am astounded at Mr.. Tayior's article
in an important American review" Con-
tinuing, Senior Salvani then proceeds to
tell the following story: Il met Mr. Tay-
lor last April in a street of Madrid, and,
though out of prudence, asked him moth
ing, he said: Spain must not suppress the
Cuban insurrection by force of arms alone.
She must carry out reforms He did Lot
mention word about autonomy; but he
added: Peace will then follow Immediately.
Spain has a friend in the White House
and she ought to profit by the opportunity
to obtain peace speedily, for Whoever sue
ceeds him he is certain 20 lie less favorable
to Spain than President Cleveland
II recognized the importance of the fore
going declaration and l FASTENED to COM
municate with my friend t;anovas Ole for

a letter which / have retained. Shortly
afterwards the reforms OF Clnovas began
to be talked about, and was commissioned
TO explain them TO Mr.. raylor. ana 10 tell
him they would be published within fort
night, as actually occurred. Mr.. Taylor
embraced me-. saying; You and l will bring
about peace in Cuba and thus powerfully
contribute to the good of humanity and
uphold the great interests of civilization by
CHUNG tho war, the prototype OF crime ana
a return to barbarism. l again FASTENED to
communicate these words in the proper
quarter.
Just prior to these events Mr.. Taylor,
at lunch in my house. in company with
Castelar, and others, toasted Peace warm
~ protesting his admiration and love for
Spain and expressing the desire to see us
succeed in the work of pacification.
shortly after the election of President
Mckinley, when it was mooted that Mr..
Sherman would be made secretary of state,
asked Mr. Taylor if Spain would not have
the Senate, had displayed such hatred of
Spain. Mr.. Taylor replied Don't notice
that, for Sherman, as a responsible minis
ter, will change his opinions Spain has
nothing to fear in this respect"
In conclusion, Senior Salvani says: These
ideas and sentiments differ greatly from
those attributed to him now"

British in India DO Not Want Food for
Starving Natives.

DULUTH Mimi, Nov. 3.-Captain Alex
ander McDougal, general manager of the
American Steel Barge Company, is in re-
ceipt of a letter from Captain Laverge,
master of the whaleback steamship City of
Everett, which sailed last summer from
San Francisco for Calcutta with a cargo of
food for the famine sufferers of india The
letter is a long one, and is dated at Cal

charges that English officials at Calcutta
received the famine supplies without en-
thusiasm.. The. pilot came aboard of the
City of Everett when she approached Cal
cutta. told the captain that he would have
done better to have brought a cargo of
rapid-firng guns with which to kill off the
Indian population instead of food.
Captain Laverge says that the City of
Everett was treated shamefully at Calcut-
ta. by the government. and that the treat
ment seemed especially out of place. in
view of the presence of the vessel as rep

empted the ship from some light dues
promptly enforced them. The claim was
made that the governor at Singapore had
no authority to exempt the ship from pay

English officials even insisted on the pay
ment of dues for the ships stores.
