raised before july l, 1897, Mr.. Porter
said that while the amount was not

OUTLOOK IS GLOOMY.
STATEMENT BY SENIOR SAGAsTA
IN MADRID.
eve Have War in Cuba, in the Phil
ippines, and We Have Attempts
at Civil War at Home"

Madrid, May 1s.-At a meeting of
Liberal senators and deputies today
Senior Sasasta, formerly premier, made
an important speech. in the course of
which he said:
We have 100000 troops in Cuba, but
We are not even masters of the terri
tory trcdden by our soldiers. At the
same moment Carlistism is organizing
Itself in the peninsula and menaces us
with new war, thanks 10 the impun-
ity 1t enjoys, while the seeds of separ-
alton are terminating in some of the
provinces.
The picture could not be gloomier.
We have war in Cuba and in the Phil
lppines, and We have attempts at civil
war at home. The government is IN
fortunate in its administration. Re
forms IN Cuba will not solve the Cuban
problem
Senior Sagasta severely reproached
the conduct of the government in
financial, political and diplomatic. emer-
gencies, and said:
1t is in this wav that a new con-
fict has arisen with the United States
We wish to know what has become
OF the sixteen millions of the former
loan, since eight millions are still due
tne army. In Cuba no important prob
lem mas Deen solved and there has only
been an aggravation of long existing
Ills. In the face of this situation the
Liberal party has decided 10 break the
truce 1t has accorded TO the govern
ment during the last two years. The
government has existed until now be-
cause or the complacence of the Liber-
ais. Henceforth the Liberals will throw
all responsibility upon the govern
ment.'
The speech, which was greatly ap-
plauded, portends stormy sittings for
both chambers. Many Liberals predict
that Senior Canovas VIII be thrown
from power within fortnight Pas
sions are thoroughly excited.

q WOMAN MINER.
She Thinks Her Sex Capable OF Sue
cess in That Calling.

During the last few years Mrs. A X
Rikert, known as the woman miner of
Tuolomne, has been visiting friends in
San Francisco and at Redwood City.
For fourteen years steadily she has
been prospecting and developing differ
ent properties. and in that time she has
discovered some of the most famous
mines of California, from one or two of
which nearly 2.00G, 900 has been taken.
says the San Francisco Chronicle
Among these mines is the rich Alham-
bra of Calico. This was a great silver
mine, but Mrs. Rikert does not mine
for silver alone. Mrs. Rikert has also
been singularly successful in mining
for gold. She was one of the first who
went 10 the new Alamo diggings in
Lower California, where she developed
valuable properties.
The woman miner who has had such
a remarkable experience has also dis
covered and developed the Pine Blanco

Minister Dupuy de LONE Talks.

Washington, May 19.-In an author
lied interview the Spanish minister,
Dupuy de LONE, broke his diplomatic
silence and said:
L am going at once to call on the
president and express my gratitude
for his splendid action and kindly con-
sideration shown in the wording of his
message. Notwithstanding the activity
of the papers that are hostile and IN
just, our cause has again triumphed
We are stronger today with President
Mckinley and Secretary Sherman than
we ever were with the Cleveland ad-
ministration
This message of Mckinley could
not be cOuched in more kindly terms,
and ne deserves the warmest thanks
of Spain. 1t looked for a time as If
very delicate and dangerous grounds
spread before US, but the calm judg-
ment of the president and secretary
of state have guided US carefully
through the crisis. For nearly a week
we were overwhelmed by the rush of
lingo, yet when the sensible Americans
came to the administration and eX-
planned that American money and
property were at stake in this Cuban
question the United States again took
the old ground of amity and cordiality
TO Spain
Spain has no objection whatever to
the United States helping her own citi-
zens now resident in Cuba and alleged
TO be in distress, The way that the
charity is distributed is entirely the
affair of the United States. and not
that of Spain. This government es-
pecially states that only Americans
are to be relieved; therefore, no au-
thority is asked 10 feed the subjects
of the king of Spain.
Spain does not care if the United
States maintains her citizens in luxury
so long as she distributes her bounty
through the consular agents and only
in the towns
