revelation to himself and the Empress to meet such well-bred American chil- dren, as the latter are generally be- lieved in Germany to be lacking in manners. "}tut," the Emperor added, If the Wiborgs are the typical Ameri- can children. then the latter have been grossly maligned." His Majesty also spoke of the American comic papers and the excellent drawings in them.
 The conversation turning upon the loss of the battle-ship, MT. White thanked the Emperor for his telegram of sympathy sent to President McKin- ley, particularly because it was sent in English and was thus understood by every one in America.
 Emperor William pooh-poohed Count Won Aran's remarks in the Reichstag, criticizing President Mckinley for his alleged lack of courtesy in not fram- ing his reply in German, saying the cases were not similar. His Majesty further remarked that the disaster was doubtless due to an unlucky accident and not to the work of a Spanish fa- natic, adding that all the evidence pointed that way.
 Incidentally, the Emperor said he had been misrepresented by some American newspapers as to his dislike for Americans. On the contrary the Emperor said he liked many traits in the American character.

Special Dispatch to The Call.
Call Office, Riggs House,


 Washington, Feb. 26. In the absence of news from Havana on any subject other than the disposi- tion of the dead bodies. the official mind turned to-day to an analysis of the Spanish statements, made with more or less degree of official sanction, respecting the total absence of sub marine mines from Havana harbor, and it was regarded by the Navy De- partment as negativing the mine theory of an external cause of the explosion, just as recent letters put an end to the exploding boiler theory as an internal cause for the disaster.
 Nothing was heard to-day from the court of inquiry, and the department is still ignorant of it's plans. In fact, the only news coming direct from Havana to the Navy Department during the day was contained in the following dispatch from Captain SigSbee:
 HAVANA, Feb. 26.-Have succeed ed in making arrangements by which bodies may be sent to Key West in dramatically sealed zinc cases. Refer to Forsythe for burial in Key West. Probable that bodies hereafter cannot be recognized. Probable that bodies will not remain intact. Condition of bodies requires immediate action. Jen- 
 uniform. Can secure health permit at Key West to land the bodies there. Divers cannot get down aft after bodies this morning. Much debris. Will clear it away. Wainwright placed in charge of wrecking natter
 The following reply was sent:
 WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-To Sigs- bee. Havana: Referring to your tele- gram of this date, send bodies that may hereafter be recovered to Key West for burial. Send by Bache.
 LONG" To Key West a dispatch was for warded as follows:
 WASHINGTON, Feb 26.-To Naval Station, Key West: Sigsbee ordered to send bodies that may hereafter be re- covered to Key West for temporary burial. Will arrive in dramatically closed zinc cases. Make necessary ar engagements. Bodies will arrive by Bache. LONG.
 It is believed at the department that there are probably in the neighborhood of fifty bodies remaining to be dis covered and extrieated from the wreck.

SPANISH PAPERS
 PLEAD FOR PEACE.

Copyrighted. 1898. by James Gordon Bennett
 MADRID, Feb. 26.-The tenor of dis patches from Havana published in some of the American papers causes the utmost surprise here where Amer jeans until now have been considered cool end calm in their judgments. Sorne papers publish list of serious reports published in the New York papecs of late, one after the other being proved untrue, and many comment especially upon the Herald's tone. Public septi- ment here is quite calm. The Iin- isterial statement issued, after regret. ting the credulity given to false re- ports, says that no incident has oc- cured which can alter the friendly re- lations between Spain and the United States and that the unfortunate disas- ter to the Maine, even if the explo- sion came from a malicious hand. can lead to no complications. Fl Liberal. Senor Sagasta'S organ, after referring Q to the troubles as adjusted, says that the all-important question is the prompt justification of Cuba: that ii is urgent and cannot be delayed.
 The Globe heads a leader with Cen eral Woodford's ringing words printed in English, Peace Forever" The I'm parcial, generally jingo, even talks of peace and urges action toward as surfing it. It says: Everything now depends upon our soldiers in Cuba to quell the war. It matters little what expeditions are sent out from the United States, our troops in spite of them should be able to extinguish the opposition in two and a half months before the rainy season. Diplomacy has smothered all other difficulties. If the war in Cuba does not terminate it is the fault of our soldiers. If a war oc- CUTS with the United States 1t is the fault of a few journalists"

to avoid war" Still. apart from the loss of the Maine, the Spectator thinks that the narrowing consular reports from Cuba may so fire the Americans that they will insist upon their Govern ment ending such miseries within American waters.
 The Spectator then proceeds to re- peat the reported war preparations in the United States. and concludes: But grave persons everywhere in the Union are waiting for evidence and are not inclined for war unless the honor and policy of the country really require it."
 Advices received here from Madrid show that while the revolutionary or ganS, such as Fl Pals, are shrieking denunciations and threats, the respon- sible newspapers have adopted a con ciliatory attitude. For instance, El Liberal, in a leading article, made a sympathetic reference to Washington's S birthday and expressed approval of President McKinleys speech at Phila- delphia, considering it to be ''rebuff for those seeking to embroil the United States and Spain" and express ing the hope that the Presidents ac- tion will be in accord with his words"
 In conclusion Fl Liberal says: Time will tell, but for the present we ought to cry a truce to suspicious and animosities in honor of the memory of the great man who, in addition to lay ing the foundation for the liberty of his people, contributed as few others have done to the redeeming and dig nifying of human conscience"
 The Ministers declare that the pes- simistic views of the Spanish press are "only the echo of the sensational state ments made by certain American DaWSnanorc v

HASTENS THE WORK

Chief Constructor Hichborn Pays @
 Visit to the New Gunboat.

Visit to the New Gunboat
 NEW YORK, Feb. 26.-Chief Con- structor Hichborn reached Camden late this afternoon and made his way quietly to the shipyard of John Dia- logue & Son at Kaighns Point, where the gunboat Princeton is being built. He and MT. Dialogue held a consulta- tion privately. left the office and went unaccompanied aboard the Princeton.
 After the inspection of the gunboat Hichborn left the shipyard at once, reached Philadelphia by the nearest ferry, and no one seemed to know what became of him. In fact, MT. Dialogue seeemed unwilling to even admit his visitors identity, but finally did so. The Princeton has been lying in the Delaware, receiving but little attention for several months.
 The Government was in no hurry for the boat explained Mr. Dialogue to me tonight, 'so we attended to pri- vate work. Last week we received or ders to make some alterations in the placing of guns, and have been attend ing to them.
 What had the Chief Constructor to say about the Princeton to-day?" asked
 Nothing, only that the Government wants her." he added.
 Did you fix time for delivery?"
 Not definitely; she is practically ready for sea-" said he, "all except re- pairs

SENTIMENT OF FOREIGN PRESS English Newspapers Do Not Believe War
 Is Near.
But They Praise the Firm Stand Taken by the
 President.
Fl Pais Says the War in Cuba Will

Special Dispatch to The Call.

LONDON, Feb. 26.-Sensational dis patches, purporting to report alarm ist utterances of President Mckinley, Secretary Long and other officials, are beginning to affect public opinion on this side of the Atlantic, and create the impression that possibly there may be truth in the reports which allege that the loss of the Maine was not due to accident, as at first believed here Although war between the United States and Spain is still regarded as improbable, the disposition in the city is to regard the apprehension respect ing Cuba as altogether exaggerated. The Statist points out that this is a grave mistake, "as, apart from the sentiment, the material losses inflicted upon Americans by the anarchy in Cuba must not be belittled."
 The Statist believes, however, that President Mckinley is strong enough to resist the pressure, and congratu lates him upon the firm and states manlike qualities which the immediate responsibilities of his position have de- veloped," and upon the honorable and noble prnciples which he enunciated at Philadelphia when he quoted Washing ton.
 At the same time" continues the Statist, i've realize that the President cannot afford to quarrel with his SUD- porters if the latter press war;
 The Saturday Review is of the opin- ion that the affair is gravely threat ening," and comments upon the silence of the Court of Inquiry into the loss of the Maine as being 'ominous," as in the nervous anxiety of President Me- Kinley and his Ministers to avoid a rupture with Spain, they would ob- viously have hastened to publish any thing which would help to stop the mouths of Senators Mason and Allen. who, with the assistance of certain newspapers, are yelling for instant war in the best jingo style"
 Proceeding, the Saturday Review re- marks: Secretary Sherman having been silenced by the simple process of not allowing him to know anythine. the executive has lately kept the secrets admirably, but it is shrewdly suspected that the pacific position of President Mckinley is largely owing to the re- ports of his naval advisers to the effect that America is not in condition to go to war with Spain with any certainty of an immediate and overwhelming success. The Spanish fleet is not to be despised, and South American re- publics have not displayed any love for their northern sister. But all this will not prevent the jingoes forcing the Presidents hand if a scrap of evil dence duplicating the Cuban authori ties becomes public.'
 The Spectator is certain that the United States Government. whether moved by information from Europe or being only desirous of peace, Is anxious

If he wants to be free we'll man again.
 If dyspepsia and biliousness or constipa- ton is the way he got into disease, he has got to overcome just those troubles before he can get out.
 The majority of diseases begin with some trouble of the digestive organs or of the liver, which prevents the supply of propef nourishment to the system. The best remedy for these troubles is Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, because it gives the digestive and blood making organs power to assimilate food and transform it into pure, nourishing blood, vitalized with an abundance of red corpuscles.
 Ii acts directly upon the liver and gives 1t capacity to filter all bilious impurities out of the circulation It builds up solid, muscular flesh and healthy nerve force.
 In obstinate constipation the Discov- cry" should be used n conjunction with Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, the most nat ural and thoroughly scientific laxative ever devised. The Pellets" regulate and in- vigorate the stomach, liver and bowels One is gentle laxative two act as mild cathartic.

Only One Boat at Havana.

NEW YORK, Feb. 26.-A Washington special to the Herald says: The dis patch boat Fern will be left for the present to safeguard American inter- ests in Havana harbor and Lieutenant Commander Wainwright will represent the Government in wrecking opera tions. Secretary Long told me tonight that he had not determined when to dispatch the Montgomery or Nashville to the relief of the Fern. It is the gen. eral impression that no orders will be issued for the dispatch of a ship on a
 peace mission to Havana for some time.

Hanna was empowered c . to speak directly or indirectly for . . 99 per cent of the invested capi- . . tai of this country. .
 MT. Hanna was given to understand in unmstakable terms that the ad- ministration could depend upon all the money support necessary to carry out any plan of action which might be de- termined upon. A series of bond is sues aggregating $500, COG, 900 was sug- gested as a possibility, and was ac- Quiesced in by the assembled financiers. The bankers who participated are averse to discussing the conference or it's conclusions. and in some cases posi- tive denials have been made. The fact that it had taken place and was so har- monious had much to do with bringing about comparative steadiness in the market to-day.
 MT Hanna, when interviewed to-day said: My mission here has no bearing Npon the great national question which G uppermOst in everybody's mind at present as to whether or not the de- struction of the Maine was caused by accident or design. I had the impress sion when the news of the accident first reached us that it was the result of some cause on board ship, and I have not yet changed my opinion. I love the United States first, and I am not in favor of needlessly precipitating the country into the horrors of war
 T feel secure with others of my fel- low citizens in President McKinley's S judgment concerning the situation. He is eminently qualified to solve the prob lem which cOnfronts us and is not likely to consider it superfcially The man who does view it superficially is not fit to be legislator or an executive It is a singular fact that those who are now inf1ammatOry in their utterances regarding the Maine disaster and talk most eloquently about freedom for Cuba have not even, though abund- antly able, contributed a dollar toward relieving the sufferings of the Cubans.

 The Financier says: "The statement of the associated banks of New York city for the week ending February 26 is not as disappointing in its showings as had been anticipated. The events of the week made it plain that heavy decreases were inevitable and yet, as a result of all the changes, the banks have reduced their surplus cash only $2,729,125, an amount hardly as large as current engagements of gold for Flu
