 Washington. June 25.-(Special.)- )-I When Lieutenant Carranza, late naval attache of the Spanish legation. and still later chief of the bureau of Span ish spies in the Dominion of Canada, arrives on the shores of Spain, If he ever does reach that alleged destina- tion, it is possible he may find sur prise party awaiting him in the shape of a court martial.
 Before leaving Washington for his summer vacation, MT. Lad1slaus Hen gelmuller von Hengervar, minister of Austria Hungary. temporarily repre- senting the cabinet at Madrid in Washington. asked through the state department if it was consistent with Oacial propriety to permit him to look a4 the original of the now celebrated captured letter of Lieutenant Car ranza. This request was referred to the treasury department. which has the letter in charge, with view Of instituting criminal proceedings against Carranza, through the chief of the secret service office, should he ever set foot again on United States terri tory, this intention being based on portions of the letter which for sufh- cient reasons have not hitherto been made public.
 After some consultation MT. Hengel- muller's request was complied with to an extent he did not perhaps antici- pate. He was furnished with 8 com plete photographic facsimile of the letter. The treasury department, 1t may be mentioned, has one Of the most complete establishments in the United States for the photographic reproduction of documents, and could at any time photograph one of its own treasury notes on it's own pre- pared paper in such a way as to deceive it's own local treasurers. ii 1t so desired. When MT. Hengelmuller received the photographic fac simile of the document asked for, he almost hesitated to accept it, the evidences Of its authenticity and the startling na- ture of it's contents together forming a combination not altogether expected. There is reason to believe, however, that the document has been forwarded to Madrid through the Austrian lega- tion in Paris, and therefore it is an- ficipated that Lieutenant Carranza may encounter a court martial for his strictures upon his own government, unless the unprintable portions of his letter make it impossible to disclose a part without making public the whole, and thereby adding to the public ig- nominy which now rests on the Span -ish name.
 'sBut," said an attaehe of ane-her le- gation today, "the Spaniards are queer people; you can never predict accurately what they will do. You remember that when Weyler returned home from Havana there were sim liar stories of an intention to arrest and court martial him for attacks upon the government, and the result was that the government had to con hive at Weyler's making his entrance into Spain by a circuitous route in order to avoid the popular demonstra- tlons which would otherwise have been made in his honor It is quite likely this may be the case with Car ranza- What other nations might consider discreditable treachery is very likely to be accepted as holy vindication Of Spanish honor"
 Not one of four leading officials in the navy to whom I have spoken be- lieves the reported movement of Camara's fleet from Cadiz for some point outside of Spanish waters is other than a feint for home con- sumption. But it has increased the alarm of the Old Lady of Beacon street, which has already caused :he United States to lose the services for a month or more, by collision, of one of its finest and fastest cruisers, the Columbia; has invalided the entire crew almost of another fine cruiser. the San Francisco, and caused her to run aground, and altogether has in flicted more injuries on the United States navy up to date than the fleets of Spain.
 It seems impossible to persuade New England that second-rate Spanish war ships, short of coal, badly in need of docking, with demoralized crews, after a four or five thousand mile voyage, cannot scale Bunker Hill and shed their bilge water on the sacred pre- cincts of Boston Common. The New England scare has been the opera bouffe feature of the war on our side; on the Spanish side there have been so many opera bouffe features that it IS difficult to point to any movement that was not originally of that order. Dewey and others have changed farce into tragedy, but not with Spanish consent
