TIE SPANISH SETTLEMENT

Each days news brings fresh despair to those
perfervent souls who think diplomacy between
great nations Is best 70 be conducted by viaor-
Gus "hollering" in town-meetng In spite Of
their vociferous reluctance TO accept the fact.
the De LONE incident draws to a close. And
this has been effected without war. and with
out even talk Of var by any serious and Judi
cious person, without suspension of diplomatic
relations. and without any Of the terrible things
which have been so freely prognostlcated. In
stead Of Spain declining or long delaying to
send another Minister In place OF Se0or De
LONE, as was predicted. She has actually made
haste to send one. She has selected new and
presumably competent and acceptable man for
the place with promptness that IS as conspic.
nous as ii is gratifying. In this she emphasizes
her desire to maintain unbroken her friendly
diplomatic intercourse with this Government
and commends herself to the courtesy and sym
pathetic consideration OF this country.
With the new Minister will come. II. indeed
II does not come before him. an ample disayowal
Of the abhorrent utterances OF his Predecessor.
and especially OF his reflections upon the honor
