ton at the Spanish Capital.
LONDON, July 1.-THE Madrid corre-
spondent of the Pail Mall Gazette says:
The most notable event thus far Of
the Spanish court season at San Sebas.
tan has been the visit of Prince Take:
heito, Japan's ambassador extraordi.
nary, who was sent to invest King
Alphcns:, with the Japanese imperial
Order of the Chrysanthemum. The visit
is considered of peculiar Importance.
The envoy was received with extreme
cordiality by the queen and the govern
ment. The prince, who was accom-
panied by the Marquis Ito, was re-
ceived with full state by the Duke of
Tetuan, Spanish minister Of foreign af-
fairs, and all the court functionaries.
The streets were lined with troops. The
distinguished visitors were conducted to
the palace, where the queen and a bril-
liant retinue welcomed them with high
honors. Banquets, balls and other
marked compliments followed and the
warships in the bay were decorated
with flags and bunting.
The Duke of Tetuan has gone out OF
his way to protest that the mission is
purely complimentary and without
political significance, although a Japan
csc legation may be established at Ma
drid.
1t is said that the occurrence is being
carefully observed in the United States.

All fears which had been entertained
by the German authorities with regard
to the possibility of the freezing Of the
Baltic canal during the winter are now
shown to have been without foundation,
and there is no longer any ground for
apprehension lest the cold weather
should interfere with navigation be-
tween the Baltic and the North seas
Despite the severe frost, which during
the last winter has at times entirely
blocked with ice the Belt and the sound
as well as the bay of Kicl, the canal has
not been closed a single day.
