received telegram announcing that
Emperor William would arrive at Car
tagena on Nov. 10. The authorities
were apparently greatly surprised when
they heard of the visit and it is proba-
bic they had no previous notice of it.
The whole Spanish press cherishes the
hope that Germany will initiate some
sort of European intervention. Official
circles pretend to be amazed that such
an idea should take hold of the public
and they loudly delare the kaiser's visit
will have no official significance.
It is understood that as q matter of
courtesy the queen regent will send an
autograph letter inviting the emperor
and empress of Germany to visit Mad
rid.
The public is SO indignant at the atti-
tude of the American commissioners
that Senior Sagasta and his ministerial
colleagues will need uncommon SELF
possession to prevent rash suspension
of the peace negotiations.
The queen regent presided at the cab
met council held during the day. Pre-
mier Sagasta read q letter from Senior
Montero Rios, president Of the Spanish,
peace commission, announcing that the
American peace commissioners had re-
fused to recognize the Cuban debt, and
had exacted the Philippine islands.
