NO MOVE TOWARD PEACE KNOWN.

Washington. June 2.-If the Queen Regent OF
Spain has instructed Sehor Castillo TO ask the
Powers 10 intervene for peace. that movement
has not yet taken any form IN washington
either at the State Department: or at any OF the
foreign embassies. Among diplomatic oinciais
Il Is thought 20 be possible that Spain Is feelns
her way toward securing peace, but 1t is not De-
Neved that she will meet any active assistance
from the great Powers. As a leading dipio-
matte official said to-day. Spain finds hersef IN
the same condition OF isolation that France was
IN In lS70-'7l At that time NJ. Theirs at'er
ward President went from capital to capltal
seeking TO secure the cooperation OF Europe
with France but his mission was a failure
The mission Of Castillo is said to be like that
OF Theirs and the diplomatic officials believe II
VIII meet with the same fate.
II Is known that Spain has counted most on
arousing the active interest of France, but she
has been unsuccessful. The French authorities
mere have not heard OF any negotiations FOR
many weeks past, indicating that the authori-
Ties In Paris have not taken UP the propositions
OF Sehor Castillo for intervention in behalf OF
peace.
