As the days go by the Indications are
that the war will not be as short lived
as many statesmen at Warrington were
predicting, In their speeches a fey days
since, that II would be. With the North
Atlantic squadron OF tho United States

with active preparations going or. In this

with our naval vessels daily prcylng
upon Spanish carrying vessels in the
southern waters; with a state OF war
existing between the two countries. so
declared by the United States govern

Spain seems TO be Inactive So far as
her formidable squadron at Cape Verde
Is concerned. Yesterday It vas still re-
ported at Cape Verde. seemingly having
abandoned Cuba. /,
There are many theories and not a few
rumors IS to the cause OF the failure OF
the Spanish fleet 10 set outTor the West
1ndies. An important but unofficial re-
port. Is that England has been tho prime
cause by fnstructing the Scotch engln-
GERS on some OF the Spanish vessels not
10 so to Cuba; another, OF the same kind.
Sc the rumor that Spain is preparing for
a great movement on our coast cities
a proposition which lacks the color OF
reasonableness. Another theory Is that
Spain IS still, with shrewd diplomacy,
playing for time, in the hope that some
sort Of a European concert may be
formed. and that she may yet be spared
the dangers OF risking the very exist
ence of the kingdom in a conflict with
this country.
In the meantime. England has OK
pressly declared her neutrality, and
other powers are not making haste to
come 10 the rescue OF the fated nation.
There are so many. elements that so TO
make UP an interesting situation, and
developments both important and unim-
portant arc occurring, that SO to
mt safe to indulge in speculauons until
matters shape up to a point where the
time and place OF active hostilities may
be more clearly predicted. The United
States Is carrying out its programme.
and nc time Is being lost in preparations
for what will como sooner or later to de-
terminc the Issue between the bclllger-
cnts.

An interview with ex-Premier Crispl,
OF Italy. quotes the distinguished 1tal-
ian statesman as being OF the opininn
that the result OF the war will be the end
of Spain. He thinks that the main
cause OF the present condition in which
Spain finds herself is the general ignor-
ance among the higher as well as The
lower classes OF the people. The coun-
try has missed Its opportunities and is
now about to suffer FOR the faults OF the
nast.
