MARTINEZ CAMPOS SPEAKS
HE SENDS A MESSAGE ON A MUCH
DISCUSSED MATTER,

The Spanish Leader says There IL Net tho
Least Probability That re Will Form n
Cabinet In spaip-so. n AEcarrnEn Fniis. sa-
EastaVyii Take the Heim Of state mt Madrid.
The report which was circulated in Havana to
tho effect that IL a change Of Cabinet should
occur in Spain Gen. Martinez Campos would
probably be called to power by the Queen Re
gent led to an inquiry, by cable, addressed to the
celebrated Spanish General himself IL there was
any foundation for the belief that In case the
present dissensions among tho Spanish Conserv.
atives should make 1t impossible for Gen. AGAR
raga to maintain himself at the head Of tho
Ministry he would form q new Cabinet instead
OF Senior Sagasta.
Gen. Martinez Campos. with his usual candor
cabled tho inquirer in this city yesterday that
there is not tho loast probability that he will
form a Cabinet in Spain. This avowal makes 1t
clear that the only possible successor to Gen.
ALcarraga is Senior Sagnsta. in the event OF q
Ministerial crisis. which, according to THE
SUNS cable dispatches from Madrid. tho Queen
Regent herself is interested to avert.
The much talked Of dissensions among the
Spanish Conservatives have arisen entirely
from the personal hatred which has for a long
timo existed between SeNores Romero Robledo
and silvels. In 1889, Senior Canovas appointed
Silvela his Minister Of Gobernacion, and there
upon Romero Roblodo drew apart from Cano-
vas and led q faction OF tho Conservatives hos.
tile to the Prime Minister. A short time after,
Canovas dismissed Silvela and made peace
with Romero Robledo, for which reason Silvela
then assumed the leadership OF tho discontented
Conservatives Such was the situation when
Canovas died, and his disappearance from the
scene has increased the bitterness between
Romero Robledo and Silvela, both aspiring TO
replace Canovas as tho head of their party.

u. u Fit Person to Remain Hero.
Manuel Planas. tho alleged Spanish Anarchist,
who arrived in this city from Liverpool on Sat.
urday on tho Umbria. has succeeded in con.
yincins the authorities that no is not an An.
archist, that he is not a dangerous man to be in
this country, and that he is only hero because no
wants to be in a country where no will be al.
lowed to 1.-Two In peace. In n little while. he
won't say Just when. he will go to Cuba, from
which place he has been exiled. Meanwhile he
wants to be let alone. Two immigration officials
called at the Hotel Espanol, at Fourteenth street
and Sixth avenue. yesterday. to talk to Planas.
They told him that he must them
downtown and explain some things which had
been said about him. Planas went down to the
Barge Office and the authorities heard all he
had to say, Then they told him that no might
remain in the country II he liked.
Planas says that he never was In Europe In
his life until three weeks ago. and that conse-
quently the claim that he Is a leader of Spanish
Anarchists is absurd. He thinks the fact that
he was invited to leave France ebecausc he was
a political refugee, and thst his last name Is the
same as that OF q w~ell-known. Spanish An
archist, Victor Planas, Is responsible for the de-
roGatory reports sent over from Europe about
him.
Planas Is q man Of wealth. and his family has
money. He says no will DO In this city for sew.
eral weeks yet. Ho was .oxiled from Cuba in
1896 and sent to a penal settlement In Africa
for sympathiZing with tho revolution. He es.
capped two months ago.

NO FUSION IN NEBRASKA.
The County PopuIlst Conventions Prefer I'll
Middle or the Road.

sstuuie OF Inc h1onu.
LINCOLN. Neb.. Aug. 22.-The conventions OF
the Populists OF Nebraska in the various coun-
ties to select delegates to tho triangular State
Convention Of the silver parties on Sept. l were
held last night all over the State. The returns
to-day show a majority OF delegates opposed to
fusion. This Is Of immense importance politi-
cally. 1t has been said that the Populists were
opposed to fusion. but the silver Democrats re-
lied upon the personal influence OF Bryan and
the silver leaders to force the middle.Of-the-road
element into line. but it seems they calculated
wrongly. This will have a serious effect on the
proposed triangular convention.
The silver forces can never win in the State
unless the Populists throw their combined
strength into the campaign this fall. 1t appears
that many influential Popu!ists are very much
dissatisfied with tho programme. asserting that
1t is intended TO merely hold up the hands OF
Bryan and his friends for the 1900 campaign. to
which they object. This means q very hot fight
al the State Convention. The plan had been
fully arranged by the silver leaders OF the three
parties to fuse in the triangular convention with
Bryan as the head OF all, and this is q sad blow
to their hopes.

Output-It May Ne tho Intention TO Rstab-
lish the cold Standard In That Country.
MEXICO CITY, Aug. 22.-Tho action Of the
Mexican Government at tho Cabinet meeting
held on Friday last has not yet been made off,
cially public. However, tho policy Of tho Gov.
eminent will be to encourage gold mining in
every particular. and to prevent tho exporta-
tion OF tho yellow metal from tho country.
Exemption is to BIO granted from every form
OF Federal, State, and municipal taxation to all
gold miners, and a heavy and practically pro-
hibitory tax is to DO imposed to prevent the
expectation Of gold.
The production Of gold in Mexico to-day 10
about So, ooo.o 900 a year. Under such n law 40
that outlined 1t would quickly rise to $4,000
600 and over.
1t is understood that the next step will DO the
depositing Of gold In tho Federal Treasury. the
Government to pay therefor In silver dollars 40
the current rate Of exchange on the day the
deposit is made. 1t Is argued that on the basis
Of tho gold so accumulated the payment OF tho
intercst-bearing certificates issued against tho
gold in tho custody of the Treasury can be met.
Thus, slowly, q gold fund would be secured hero
to be made, In case Of necessity, tho basis OF q
change Of standard. At least 80 says Dame
Rumor, and without any apparent shock &C
trade. A great monetary revolution would
come about. and should gold come to be mined
here under Government encouragement In large
quantities the task Of supplying tho country
with a gold currency would be made easy.
However. as far as could be learned, tho
Cabinet has in no way indicated any tendency to
adopt a gold standard. The accumulation Of
gold here would enable the Treasury to meet
the foreign interest in gold. In view Of tho in-
creased interest in gold mining here the adoption
by the Government OF a policy to encourage tho
mining Of tho yellow metal cannot but result in
a great impetus to the mining of gold.
Tho present Secretary Of the Treasury. J. I.
Limantour, Is a man Of extraordinary resources.
and the people generally feel that no is perfectly
able to relieve their embarrassment caused by
the fall in silver. 1t is understood that the fore
| going project has been evolved by Mr.. Limantour.
