WOES OF SPANISH PAPERS

MADRID, Oct 24-Lieutenant c.
eral Correa, minister Of war, threato6g
to resign unless the government g
holds the action of General Chinchilla,
captain general Of Madrid, who laGo
week imprisoned Senior Figuarea, Cd
itor of FL Nacional. for publishing n
article not previously submitted to the
censor-the Imprisonment being re-
sented in certain quarters as an in
fringement of Figuerea's alleged i'm
munity from arrest as q member Of
the chamber Of deputies.
Senior Gamazo on Friday last ten
dered his resignation as minister Of
public instruction and public works,
as protest against the arrest Of Senior
Figuerea- His resignation, taken with
the threat of General Correa, indicates
a radical division of sentiment in the
Sagasta ministry on the subject.
The Madrid newspapers have adj
dressed a complaint to the supreme
court of Madrid against General Chin
chiila's action. The captain general,
on the appearance of the uncensored
article. ordered the suppression of FL
Nacional, but the suspension order was
eventually annulled.

Alaskan territory is due to is not
known. There is a possibility of
accretiOn and constant outward growth
of the land since the first charts were
made, but the better opinion is that it
is due to previous inaccurate chartA
Mr.. Pratt's work is the first regular
