WOULD FIGHT THE GREEDY YANKEE.
SPAIN'S NEW POLICY.
An Alliance is Claimed to Exist Between
the French and spaniards.

Now that the state legislature
throughout the country are urging war
with Spain. the people scouting the
theory of accident in the Maine disas-
ter. and certain Congressman condemn
ing the administration for it's hesitancy
in attacking weak, foreign power. II
may be well to consider the following
from foreign newspaper opinions. There
may after all be some reason for the
Indifferent and fearless attitude which
Spain has thus far assumed.
There is curious discussion in the
Spanish press as to the possibility of
confederating the Latin republics of
South America with Spain against the
United States "El Pals" contends that
the Spanish republics are weak through
isolation. but that united In military
and diplomatic alliance they would be
the first power in the world in territory.
the second in population. and that their
armies and navles would have sufficient
power to insure respect.
''EI Pals" thinks Spain's advice would
not be discarded II she warned Latin
America against the United States,
adding:
For 1t is well known that the greedy
Yankees, once the Panama canal Is op-
ened to the worlds commerce, will do
all which their perfidy can suggest to
wrest 1t from the Latin countries of
cd the Suez canal. Tending in this di-
rection is the desire of the Americans
to sucure Cuba. and the advance of the
United States in the sea Of the Antilles
are preliminary steps in the blockade
and occupation Of the future canal"
Referring to Latin alliances the Lon
don Spectator" in a long article points
out that there Is no doubt Of the exist
ence OF special relations between
France and Spain which have lately
been strengthened. and says:
There are well-informed people who
believe that when in the autumn the
United States found there was a stiff
ness in the Spanish attitude which
could only be accounted for by the fact
that Spain knew she could appeal to a
power which could not neglect her de-
mands for help" The Saturday Re-
view" expresses the belief that France
allowed the United States to under
stand indirectly that considerations of
Importance 20 her would not allow her
20 see Spain treated In an unfriendly
manner and that a Spanish appeal to
France must result in the latter's inter-
vention, and the Review" believes that
this accounts for the way the United
States shrunk from putting into prac-
tice the treatment OF Spain suggested
in the original protests OF the Wash
ington Government"

MOURNING ON 4 SPANISH CRUISER.
VIZCAYA IN NEW YORK.
The Main Disaster Forces Her Captain to
Decline All Social Functions.

The Spanish warship Vizcaya arriv-
ed I'm New York harbor last Saturday.
She received every courtesy and all
possible protection at the hands of the
American navy.
Senior Manuel de Suarez, secretary Of
the consul general of Spain. New York.
accompanied by a representative OF the
Associated Press. visited the Spanish
warshlp Vizcaya Sunday.
In an interview Capt. Eulate said
that while his ship was In this port his
officers would accept no invitations Of
any kind. The Spanish warship had
come here on visit of courtesy and
friendship and when the dreadful ac-
cident to the Maine was learned the
flags were put at half-mast, and there
they would remain until the ship took
her departure. He likened his visit to
that of one intimate friend to another.
when disaster had overtaken the latter.
the same delicacy dictated what to do.
to mourn with the friend and TO avoid
all festivity. No invitations Of n social
character would be accepted-this he
wished to have understood.
Referring to the catastrophe that had
overtaken the Maine he declared that
he and his officers were greatly shock
ed and that the sympathy of all was
with the families who had lost those
near and dear He said that he had
duly sent n telegram to the secretary
of the navy expressing his sentiments
and those of the officers.
Capt. E,ilate when asked how long
the ship would remain in port, said
that he had no orders from his govern
ment, but he evidently expects to be
here for some time. He was eloquent

FIENDIsH TORTUREs.
Tho Cruel Turk Continues His Brutal
Slaughter Unmolested.

The note of the Bulgarian agent TO
the TurkiSh government, protesting
against the treatment which Bulgar-
ians have been subjected to in Mace
donia, reveals a state OF affairs similar
to that which existed in Armenia. 1t
says that village after village has been
surrounded by the Turkish army, that
wholesale arrests have been made and
that the prisoners have been subjected
to unheard-of tortures.
The note further gives list of the
villages and the names of the victims
to whom torture has been applied.
Schoolmasters, 1t appears, have been
the special objects of vengeance.
These tortures are recited in the Of
ficial document. and in each case the
name of the victim is given Hot irons

ters driven under the nails, naked feet
placed on hot stoves, hung by the feet

provided by Congress was the sum
named Ivy Chief Constructor Hlchborn
as required for the raising of the ship
and its delivery at either Norfolk or
New York, where he proposed to un-
dertake the work of rebuilding the

"I am confident that work can be
done, and i see no reason TO abandon
the hulk In Havana or leave her to the
demolition Of dynamite If there Is
one-half of the hull In good condition,
or fairly so, that is all that is neces-
sary. ! am able TO assure the Govern
ment of rebuilding the ship and of
making her as good as new. or course
this would be attended by large eX-
pense, but not nearly so much as an
other battleship would cost"
Charles II. Cramp. the soldier mem

of the Maine depends entirely upon the

THE fact that one OF the magazines
of the Maine was located next to one
of the coal bunkers does not indicate
that the alleged accident resulted
from this proximity. Why, ! know of

lieve there is danger in the harbor of
Havana and quite sufficient reason ia
exercise great care"

supply Germany with all the informa-

presumably Austria Hungaria.
Dreyfus discovered and traded upon
