Duke of Tetuan Cuffs a Member of the
Spanish Senate.

Spanish Senate.
Madrid, May 22.-The vote in the
United States senate in favor of recog-
nizing the Cubans as belligerents led to
a free fight in the senate here Friday
that was followed by the resignation of
the duke of Tetuan from the office of
minister of foreign affairs. The eXcit-
ing incident which eliminated in a
free fight was provoked by the state
ment of the duke of Tetuan that Senior
Sagasta's speech the other day to the
liberals had contributed to bring about
the vote in the American senate.
Gen. Lius Pando said: "The thing
now happening is due to the cowardice
and feebleness of the government"
Senior Comas said: "You will dis
cuss that tomorrow"
"We will discuss it," replied the duke
CT Tetuan, "but will accept dictation
from nobody"
"Nor 1 either" retorted Senator CO.
mas at the top of his voice.
At this point the duke of Tetuan, pale
with excitement, boxed both ears of
Senator Comas, and felled him to the
floor. The son of Comas threw him
self upon the duke and struck him a
heavy blow with his fist. Several SEN
ators interviewed and general scuffle
ensued, with great confusion, and twas
some time before order was restored.
The duke of Tetuan rendered his resig-
nation Immediately after the incident.
1t is believed that he misunderstood the
reply of Senator Comas, as he is regard
ed as an extremely courteous and hon
orable man.
