LONDON, April 2.-The nervousness
OF the stock markets which was en-
phaSlZed by a sudden drop Of three
points in Spanish fours at the opening
or the stock exchange today. has been
fully reflected in diplomatic circles,
which have experienced almost as
much difficulty as outsiders in extract
ing facts from the mass of contradic
tory statements regarding the Hispano-
American crisis until today.
Beyond opinion, generally, that mat
tiers were nearing a crisis, there was
not a man in London of real weight
who was willing to risk an opinion as
to whether the outcome would be peace
or war
Even now there is a difference of
opinion; but, the distinctly warlike tone
OF the great mass of evidence and the
marked divergence Of the United States
demands and SPANS proposals have
led the majority to conclude that the
parting Of the ways has been reached,
unless, within few hours, Senior Saga
sta is able to give assurances that the
delay he asks for will ensure the COM
plete freedom of Cuba
1t is not too much to say that all
Europe regrets 1t, though for different
reasons, some because genuinely friend
ly nations are involved and others be-
cause they dread that the war bacillus
Will spread and aggravate the feverish
spirit of unrest already in evidence in
the Old world.
To the last therefore, it is hoped that
solution will be found, even when
Spain is apparently intractable.
The best informed persons believe
Spain is only temporizing, as it is rec
ognized there is difficulty in the Span
ish government accepting without de-
muir the demands of the United States
in view of the danger of revolution
and the overthrow of the monarchy.

No More Visitors.

The secretary of the navy issued an
order today closing the Washington
navy yard to visitors. This order takes
effect tomorrow morning, and will
operate as long as present conditions
exist The action was based upon
recommendations of the commandant Of
the yard, who said that the number
OF visitors has become so large of late
as to interfere seriously with the prose-
cutlon OF the important work now in
progress.
The commandment says that il was
specially desired that the yard would
be closed to all visitors tomorrow, in
asmuch as it was intended to complete
the work on the Vesuvius SO that she
would be enabled to leave on that day
if necessary. ~
The navy department has been in
formed of the departure of the gunboat
| Marietta from Callao, Peru, to VAL
paraiso, Chill.
Although the officials will not say so.
it is generally understood that this
vessel has been detached from duty on
the Pacific station, and ordered to join
capt SIMPSONS fleet at Key West with
as little delay as possible. Similar or
ders it is understood, will be issued to
the commander Of the battleship Ore
SoH, HOW on ner way from San Fra
cisco to Callao, and about due at the
latter port.
The old-fashioned steamer Standish,
attached to the naval academy, having
accomplished the business which
brought her to Washington. left here
last evening for Annapolis. She brought
| cargo of old guns which had been
stored away at the academy and were
somewhat out of repair.
The officials of the navy department
say that the cruisers San Francisco and
New Orleans probably will consume
about fourteen days in their voyage
across the Atlantic. They should reach
New York about the 10th inst.
The bureau of construction and re-
pair Of the navy department, has given
directions to the officials at the Mare
Island yard to devise means for the
protection of the tools and machinery
necessary to the proper work of re-
pairing the vessels now going on. The
hope is now expressed at the bureau
that it's work will not be delayed as
long as originally thought would be the
case.
