cARRENZA WOULD FIGHT sIGsBEE.
Spanish Naval Attaehe Challenges the Can.
tain OF the Maine.

Toronto, Ont, April 26-Lieutenant
Carrenza, of the suite of Senior Polo v
Bernabe. was seen yesterday relative
to the report that he had challenged
Captain Sigsbee, of the Maine, to fight
duel. The lieutenant corroborated the
story. He said he had sent his challenge
on the 10th, and IL he does not hear
from Captain Sigsbee by the 2sth he will
brand him as coward. Should Cap
tain Sigsbee refuse the lieutenant will
then challenge Consul General Lee.
This is because of the testimony OF
these two gentlemen before the con-
gressional committees investigating the
Maine disaster in which the crime was
imputed to some Spanish officer who
had access to the electric keys that are
connected with mines in harbors.
Washington, April 26.-It is known
here that Lieutenant De Carrenza sent
challenges to both Sigsbee and Lee. At
the time 1t was suggested to him that
dueiing was looked upon differently in
this country from in Europe and the
laws prohibited it. but he insisted that
these officers would not invoke the law
or the custom of the country in the
present case.
Philadelphia, April 2s.-Captain Sigs-
bee. when seen last night in reference
to the challenge said to have been sent
him by Lieutenant De Carrenza, said
he had no definite information concern
ing it. He said: Il do not believe any
such challenge has been issued. I have
not received it: 1t is false to
say that I testified to the senate COM
mittee that Spanish officials connived
to blow up the Maine. What / said was
that the Maine was blown up by an ex-
terror force and / would have been a
fool not to say 50. / can't say
what disposal shall make of the chal-
lenge IL II comes"

In Spite OF the Concessions She Made In
Cuba-Refers to the Aid the Rebels Have
Received from This Country and Denies
the Charges Of Cruelty -Oiney's Alleged
Approximations - senior Castelar, Takes
His Place in the Cortes.

London, April 2e.-The Times this
morning publishes Spain's memorandum
to the powers. dated April Is, and signed
by Senor Gullon. the Spanish minister
OF foreign affairs. The memorandum
begins by recording the moral and ma
terial aid the Cuban rebels have re-
ceived from the United States in fili-
clustering expeditions and the operations
OF the tunta- 1t mentions Spaln's re-
peated and positive denials to the alle-
cations of cruelty toward Cubans. and
lays great stress upon President Cleve-
lands dispatch of Dec. z, 1896, 10 the
effect that peace would be possible n
Spain gave sufficient autonomy to Cuba.
The memorandum contends that in the
face of the new liberal constitution
granted Cuba, which has already
borne fruits" IL Is difficult TO under
stand why President Mckinley I'm his
message OF Dec. 6. 1897. and General
Woodford. in the note of Dec. 20. 1891,
should still doubt Spain's loyalty.
Reference to the Maine Tragedy.
The document then speaks at some
length Of the Maine accident" and as
serts that the Americans, under the
pretext Of the extra territorality of the
vessel. never allowed the Spanish au-
thorities TO visit the wreck for purposes
OF investigation. and II most solemnly
asserts the absolute innocence Of Span
ish officials and Of Spanish subjects gen.
orally. The fairness and loyalty of
Spain are then shown by a reference TO
the equitable treatment which Ameri-
can filibusters, more especially those OF
the Competitor, have received at the
hands of Spain. and in order to show
more fully how pacific and correct has
been the attitude of the Spanish gov
ernment the memorandum enumerates
the concessions Spain made as to Gu
ban government, relief of the reconcen-
trados and its offer to arbitrate the
Maine question.
Uncle Sam Would Not Accept.
The memorandum proceeds to de-
clare that the United States has not
accepted even these far-reaching con-
cessions, and that the good Offices Of the
pope have been equally unavailing. II
asserts that the Maine accident was
used by political parties in America as
means Of hurling most gratuitous
and intolerable calumnieset the Spanish
government" and yet. the document

April 4. 1896, TO the Spanish minister in
