SPANISH MINISTER ANNOYED.
Makes n Long Call on Assistant Sec
retary Day.


retary Day.
The Spanish minister, Senior Dupuy De
LONE, called at the State Department to-
day, being diplomatic day, and spent three
quarters of an hour in conversation with
Judge Day, the assistant secretary. There
was no late news from Havana, which ~
taken as n sign that all is quiet there. 1t
is believed, however, that the minister is
seriously disQuieted by certain events Of
the last few days in this country. First
there was the speech yesterday In the
House of Representative Hit, the chair
man Of the committee on foreign affairs
which, while from the Spanish view serv-
ed the useful purpose Of consolidating the
majority in support of the President s
policy to Cuba, in the effort to do thar

terms that are likely to be misnterprexel
in Spain.
Then few changes made recently in the
dispo sition of the United States naval yes

misinterpretation by the Spanish The gun
LCat Helena was on her way to the Asiatic
station with permission to make Il slow
passage and stop frequently on the way.
When she arrived at Funchal, Madeira, she
vas authorized by cable to stop at Lisbon,
Portugal, somewhat off her route. for a
purpose that cal only be conjectured The
naval officials refuse to discuss the move
ments at ALL consequently the change in
the orders of the Helena is accepted as an
indication of the departments intention to
have the ship within easy cable communi-
cation, and also perhaps of easy access to
Minister Woodford at Madrid. The depart
ment had been preparing to send the gun
boat Nashville, at Norfolk, to Europe to re
lieve the Raleigh and take out a draft OF
men to the San Francisco, but this plar
has been suspended for time and the gun
boat is now under orders to go to Por.

trite there at target practice.
Two vessels Of the South Atlantic squad
ron, the Cincinnati and the Castine are

upper portion of the station. The former il
going in dock probably at Rio, 1t is said
while the Gastine comes to Isla Grande
near the same port. There are no change
yet in contemplation for the Asiatic anc
Pacific squadrons, and while the move
ments above noted are doubtless to be ex
plaiEed as a part Of the regular routine or

the notice and disapproval Of the Spanig

The Situation as Affected by a
Possible Foreign Crisis.
REVIEW OF CONDITIONS

Special Dispatch 10 The Evening Star.
NEW YORK, January 2o.-Prices were
generally steady during the opening hours
this morning. but the Indifference Of the
speculative public resulted in fractional
concessions later in the day. London
bought few shares. but this demand was
not sufficiently liberal to become a factor
in the local dealings. Recent developments
at Washington relative to Cuban affairs
are being construed apparently without
warrant, into warnings OF grave action In
the near future
This construction does not meet with
unanimous Endorsement however as .e
significance of the speech in question may
lie wholly I'm a desire to ward of agita-

situation is consequently narrowed down to
the limitations of a traders market. in
which no special account will be favored
The dullness which prevailed during the
early afternoon was extremely pronounced
