ing London weeklies.
London, May 2s.-The weekly news-
pepers agree that the policy of Spain is
to protract the war. The Spectator
says: 1T is clear that Spain intends
to delay the war as long as possible,
hoping that either Americans will grow
tired Of spending or that Europe, dis
turbed by the interruption of commerce
and the rise in the price Of wheat, will
intervene and insist upon peace"
The Spectator. continuing, says 1t is
OF the opinion that the government at
Washington has decided to make a
land attack on Havana while Admiral
Cervera is bottled up at Santiago de
Cuba, and finds 1t difficult to believe
that the half drilled, half fed Spanish
conscripts will prove fighting superiors
to the hardy volunteers. Nevertheless,
the Americans who expect short war
will be grievously disappointed.
The Speaker says: Probably the
real aim of Admiral Cervera's opera
tions is less naval than political, and is
meant less for use in America than
Europe. 1t is all desirable for the
Spanish ministry to gain time. The
revolutionists cannot move until a dis
aster comes. Meanwhile Spain can
point to the intensified agonies of the
reconcentrados and bid Europe behold
the results Of American humanitarian
ism. There is also tho, possibility of an
European war that wsuld give Spain
unexpected allies. Every moment of
delay, therefore, is gain for the
safety of Spain"
Private letters from Madrid suggest
that the queen regent and her minis
tiers would be only too glad Of an op-
portunity to escape from the present
intolerable situation. The war fever
is steadily abating among the Spanish
educated classes and the commercial
classes especially. All that seems nee
cessary to induce Spain to invite the
good offices Of France and other powers
to bring the war to a close is a good
opening. This, in the view of diplo-
matists, is likely to be supplied by the
wrecking of the Spanish fleet now sup
posed to be in Cuban waters.
The ignorant classes of Spaniards,
especially in Madrid, misled by false
news, cling to the notion that Admiral
Cervera somehow will redeem the sit
uation.

A NOTABLE RUN.
Diplomats and Newspaper
Men On a Fine Train.

Washington, Oct. 16.-This afternoon
the special train bearing the members
of the diplomatic corps, army officials
and Washington newspaper men, who
have been guests of the Baltimore and
Ohio and Northwestern railroads and
the Omaha exposition for a week, ar
rived here. The run from Chicago to
Washington was made in the notable
time of q hours and minutes
On the train were nearly a score OF
the members Of the diplomatic corps,
Gen. A. w. Greedy, Gen. Humphrey and
Maj. Heisland of the army and num-
Der of well-known Washington CORE
spondents. The reception committee of
the Chicago peace jubilee pressed upon
the party an earnest invitation to re-
main in Chicago during the jubilee, but
reluctantly it had to be declined.
Members. of the party speak in fiat
tering terms of their entertainment ON
the trip. The train which was fur
nished by the Northwestern railroad
and Wagner Palace Car Company was
one of the finest ever run out of Wash
ington, and the officials of the Balti-
more and Ohio and the Northwestern
Wed with each other in supplying adj
mirable service. The managers of the
Omaha exposition left nothing undone,
either during the time of actual travel
or during the period spent at the fair,
TO AFFORD the party delightful expert
ence.

SIXTH SOLDIERS.
Fitchburg and Leominster
Men Arrive on Fairfax.

Boston, Oct 16.-Eleven fdrloughed
and convalescent soldiers of the sixth
Massachusetts regiment arrived this
noon on the steamer Fairfax from the
Josiah Simpson hospital at Fort Mon

of Company B and two of Company d.
The following is the list of Company B
men:
Corp. E. C. Cutler of Leominster,

most reliable. He says the crews of

The description. in the London Des-
patch, of T. w. King, as "a newspaper
proprietor at Nantucket, Mass" is
probably erroneous. Inquiry shows that
the proprietors of the local papers in
Nantucket and it's vicinity bear other
names. In Boston newspaper circles
Mr.. Kings name is unfamiliar. Pos
sibly he was wealthy summer resi-
dent at Nantucket.

Names Of Two Miss Frazers On Mohegas
Furnish Some Relief in Providence
Providence, r. T.. oct. 1s.-The family
and friends of Miss Georgina w. Fra
ger in this city were much alarmed for
her safety when it was found that the
name Of Miss Frazer was included in
the passenger list of the Inflated Mohs-
gan. She has been in Europe for some
time in the interest of New York
magazine, and it was known that she
was to return at this time. An Associ-
ated Press dispatch announcing that .
Miss Shepard and her niece, Miss Fra
yer, both of Montreal. We're known to
have been passengers on the Mohegan
affords some relief to the friends OF
Miss Georgiana Frazer. Considerable
confidence in her safety will be enter-
tanned unless further information
should tend to show that it is not the
Montreal Miss Frazer who was on the
boat.

ABOUT ARBlTRAT
Spanish Press Criticism Says Delay is For
Political Reason.

Madrid. Oct. 16.-La Epoca, the con-
sentative organ. renews the suggestion
of La Correspondents independent
and Officially regarding arbitration
between the United States and Spain.
1t says; THE negotiations at present
are going on without touching the ques-
ton of the Philippines, which is most
obscure and which lends itself to the
gravest dissensions. Owing to the
vagueness and lack Of clearness Of the
protocol the commissioners are meeting
with serious difficulties. 1t has been said
that, If our adversaries are obstinate
in their exaggerated demands, Senior
Sagasta should address the European
governments, asking arbitration at
least upon the points as to which an
agreement should not be reached; but,
in view of the electoral struggle now
in full vigor in the United States and
of the declarations Of the lingo press,
which affirms without limits the rights
of the conqueror, it is safe to assume
that a request for arbitration would be
without avail and serve no other pux-
pose than loss Of time.

NEW POSTAL PROVISION.

Washington Oct. 16 - Comptroller
Tracewell of the treasury department
has decided that post office inspectors
are entitled to a per diem of 81 for ex-
penses only when on duty outside of
offices, as the law provides that they
shall be actually engaged in the field in
order to obtain such allowance. Before
the act of congress, which went into
operation July l, inspectors received the
per diem for every day they were on
duty, no matter what its character
