MADRID, Mar. 3.-The publicis much
exercised over the report Of the pre-
sence of q squadron OF United States
warships at Hong Kong, as it is pre-
sumed the vessels intend to threaten
Manila, the capital of the Philippine
Islands. in the event of war between
the United States and Spain.
The impartial in an article headed
"To Manila, to New York" quoted an
unnamed high parsonage who scouts
the idea of an imminent rupture, and
says: 1.-The presence OF the Warships at
Hong Kong is only Washington's policy
with the view of %contenting the
jingoes."
The thigh persorage" is said to have
added But America has not so many
warships as to warrant such bold action.
If the Yankees go to the Philippines,
the Spaniards will 90 to New YORK"
The Globo remarks: The govern
ment is alive to the critical situation
and is silently repairing for the worst.
But it S too diplomatic to disclose the
procedure by which it is preparing for
emergencies" In conclusion the Globo
says: Fortunately the tranquil prep
arations of the government are the best
assurance that it will be ready when the
occasion requires it. The public, seeing
the GOODNESS of Senior Sagasta, should
comprehend that he means acts and not
words. However limited the public's
confidence in the premier, they, like
ourselves, have confidence that better
days will dawn promptly"
