SPAIN AND THE UNITED STATES.

Ex-Minister Taylor's article on Cuba
in the current number of the North
American Review will attract a good
dealsof attention because of the excep-
tional opportunities he has enjoyed for
ascertaining the facts of the Cuban rebel
lion and estimating correctly the chances
of Spain's being able to put 1t down.
Mr.. Taylor points out that both econom-
10 and political causes underlie the
trouble in Cuba. Looking upon the is
land as simply source from which to
draw revenue for the mother country.
Spain has surrounded it with conditions
that had this end merely in view, and
has been entirely oblivious to, and I'M
concerned about, the effect that they pro-
duoed upon the islanders themselves.

Acknowledged by Esterhazy.

PARIS, Dec. Major Count Ferdin-
and Esterhazy, the retired French army
officer, who is charged with having
written the letter which led to the con-
viction of Alfred Dreyfus for selling
French army secrets, is said today to
have acknowledged the authenticity Of
the letters recently published by
the "Figaro," with the exception
Of the one in which the Count is said to
have expressed the following sentiments:
eff tonight | were told that should be
killed tomorrow as captain of Uhlans,
while sabring Frcnchmen, ] should GER
tainly be perfectly happy. would not
harm dog, but l wonld see 100000
Frenchmen killed with pleasure"
1t is understood that the report OF Gen.
Pellieux, who was appointed by the Mil
itary Governor of Paris, Gen. Saussier, to
investigate the charges brought against
Count Esterhazy, declares that he is sat
istied of the guilt of Dreyfus. But there
is general Indignation here at Gen. Pei
lieux statement that he had not inquir-
ed into the possibility of Esterhazy having
written the memorandum upon which
Dreyfus was convicted, which is charged
the General simply remarking that he
considers that the court-martial definitely
settled that point.
