FUTILE TALK or INTERVENTION.

Washington. June IA CSpecIaD.-The rumors OF
Intervention by the European Powers to stop
the war with Spain, which re-appear from week
TO week with singular presidency. excite here
only n feeble amusemen. and contempt. That
the European newspapers should give serious
currency TO such empty suggestions. emanating
always from Spanish sources. illustrates only
the ignorance OF all things American which
prevails on the Continent. This Government
has so far received intimaton from any OF
the great Powers that an early peace is de-
sired by European opinion; nor Is there any
indication that serious talk OF peace will be
heard TIL Spain has lost not only the Philip
pines but Porto Rico and Cuba and realizes
herself the hopelessness of continuing to
struggle

CANADA'S FRIENDLY WISHES.

SIR CHARLES TuPPER THINKS TIE PRESENT THE
BEST TIME TO SETTLE DIFFICULTIES.
London June H-Sir Charles Topper the Cana
dian Statesman who has just arrived here from
Canada is quoted In an interview as discussing at
length the relations between Canada and the
United States. He said
Canada sympathizcs very warmly with the pro-
posed rapprochement between Great Britain and
the United States. II has always been our desire
to have the most friendly commercial, relations
with the Republic. but hitherto the United States
has not shown disposition TO reciprocate. The
Mckinley and Dngley bills and the Alien Labor
laws presented conclusive evidence OF these points
believe, however that the present Is n most
propirious time for tho settlement OF all questions
and In the changed temper Of the American peo-
pie think they can be approached with a fair
prospect of a just settlement"
