Baltimore, Aug. 11.-James Reyley, aged
twenty three, and John Reyley, aged
thirty-eight. brothers, 1888 Cooksie street,

University Hospital In The Southern dis.
trict patrol wagon after bis wounds were
dressed by DR.. Charles w. McElfresh.
The physicians at the hospital said John
Reylcy's skull was fractured, the frontal
bone being crushed. His condition was
serious at a late hour last night, and Prof
]. Holmes Smith trephined his skull.
According TO the statement OF Charles
Berney, 11A0 Cooksie street, who was an
eyewitness, the brothers, with Michael
Barrett, formerly police officer, were On
the front steps of the house drinking
beer and singing songs James and John
Reyley got INTO an alteration, and finally
John called James a, "n,onkey." The lat
ter called bis brother d bad name, and
John struck at James
Then, it is said, James got up and went
into the yard, secured the AK, and, re-
turning to the front steps, struck John Il
powerful blow on the head.
Berney saw James Reyley throw the ak
into the street artet striking his brother.
He picked the AK up and gave it TO the
police.

II is not less necessary that we should
lave a minister to Spain in London; be
cause London is the dominating center
for all tire Spanish and Cuban interests
which It has been the earnest and now is
the desperate effort Of the United States
Government TO suhserve and promote. The
house Of Rothschild, the real dictator of
Spain, is there. and there also is con
solidated the representation of all those
spanish-cuba bondholders and the Anglo
American sugar syndicate. The deep
diplomacy of the Hanna administration is
engaged 10 a Macciiavelian scheme to
handle the situation SO that, when Spain
loses Cuha, an impending occurrence i'm
possible now TO prevent, the investments,
claims and 80 on of these proteges of
Cleveland and the Republican business

Circulation Statement.
WASHINGTON, WEDNESDAY, AUG. IL.

There is not any doubt that the officials
Of the State Department are in state OF
extreme anxiety over the Spanish situation.
although naturally, they are disinclined
tc give reasons, which, however, are not
hard TO guess. If II should happen that
wcylerthought thatime had oometo revenge
himself for the exposition he has had in the
American press, and commit some atrocity
upon American citizens and consuls in
Cuba, as many competent observers have
believed he would, the position OF the Ad
uiinistrat,on before the country would be
very sorry one, and all the King horses
and all tie Kings men and money, could
not save Ohio TO the Republicans next
autumn. Advices from Consul General
Fitzhugh Lee were looked for yesterday
but did not come. The probability is that
weyler has seized the cable station at
Havana, and that our representative will
have TO depend upon mail communication,
via T. ey West for some days sleast.

Persons. uniformed as to the true iu-
wardneSs II our Spanish and Cuban policy,
may think it strange that Gen Stewart L
wooGlorG, recently accredited minister TO
Spain, should lag in London while such
a serious state of things exists ia the coUn-
try OF MS mission. 1t is an interesting
and noteworthy fact that, Just now, we
are maintaining two separate and distinct
Spanish diplomatic outfits i'm Europe. Min
lister Hannls Taylor is at Madrid, and will
continue TO act as oEr representative there
until rclieved by his successor, and the lat
ter does not evinoe any particular hurry
about proceeding to his nominal post. Al
though this arrangement may seem pecu.
liar, it is highly probable that it is rendered
necessary by circumstances equally pecu-
liar Madrid is the capital Of Spain, and
of course we must have an experienced man
there, when nobody knows at what minute
tie Republicans may revolt and denounce
the monarchy or Don Carlos appear at the
head OF an army, or both join with the
Conservatives and Liberals In a warlike
demonstration against the United States.

It is not to be forgotten that this project
may be destroyed or modified by what
possibly may happen in Spain. There are
two important points to be covered and
guarded by the united diplomacy OF Great
Britain and this country. The Spanish
monarchy must be saved, II possible, in
tie Interests Of the money lenders. Itmight
easily happen that this only could be done
by a union of ali discordant Spanish par.
ties anc fac tions, against the United
States. In that case friendly entente
might be arranged between the Spanish
foreign department Lord Salisbury ana
Gen. woodford, by which Spain would an.

Cleo de Microbes American TriD.
AS we announced yesterday, Mile. Cleo
de Merode is about to leave us. Life
i'm Paris had become impossible for her.
In spite OF prodigies of economy and
though aided by the prudent advice of her
mother, she could no longer manage to
make both ends meet. On the 200 francs
a month w hich the opera gives her she had
to keep a carriage and horses, a little
palace and open tabl for Ter friends. and to
be from head to foot one of the most ele
CANT little dolls in Paris. Two hundred
francs is not much for all that, and under
such circumstances even a ballet dancer
hardly knows on which foot to hop.
OR, rather, she does, she knows 1t only too
well and more than one in similar cases has
gone to the bad. In the dressin room of
the ballet names of persons are mention ed
whose misconduct seems unfortunately to
be undeniab Bile. and whose antics are not en-
tirely choregraphic. We should praise all
the more those who, like Nile Cleo de
Merode, try to live excl usively by their la.
bors, and ask of art alone the requisites for
existence.
Our asniable dancer VIII receive In Ameri-
ca rs, 900 francs a month. With little
care, therefore, she and her mother will be
able to live very respectfully. Iu Paris
that would not have been possible for them;
talent is. indeed, appreciated there as much
as it is in America. but it is not so well
rewarded. Mile. Cleo de Merode is held
in high esteem at the opera, but several
years would have passed before she re-
ceived As, 900 francs month. What was
she to do? Was she to slide into the down
ward path like her young Companions?
Mile Cleo de Merode, who. luckily for her,
still has her mother by her side, refused to
do this, and very braveiy is going to start
for America. We must congratulate her.
In Paris, I'm the long run, she might have
falleni Figaro.
