NEW YORK, May 26.-The Wash ington correspondent of the Herald sends the following: Grave foreign complications may grow out of the ac- tion of the Hawaiian Government in allowing the United States to make Honolulu a base of supply and naval operations in the Pacific. 1 am in- formed tonight on the highest author ity that two European governments France and ermany-through their consular representatives in Honolulu, have taken action which is construed to indicate their displeasure at the course of Hawaii. They have not en- tered any formal protest, but have in ouired of the Hawaiian Government what it's attitude would be during the war.
 What reply, if any, the Hawaiian Government made to this inquiry, is not vet known in Washington. It is known. however, that the government of the islands will not maintain neu- trality. but will allow the United States to use it's territory and harbor at Hon olul1 as freely as if they were part of the United States. By so doing the Hawaiian Government assumes the po- sition of being practically an ally of the United States and takes upon itself the full responsibility for this attitude. As far as is known here, the Spanish Consul in Honolulu still maintains his relations with President Dole's govern ment, but when the Charleston and transports bound for Manila take on coal and provisions at Honolulu 1t is believed he will protest emphatically against it, and, upon his protest being disregarded, will sever his connections with the Government and demand his passports.
 President Mckinley realizes that if The Spanish Consul should be joined in his protest by the representatives of other European Governments there would be great danger of complications with those nations. and for this reason the President is more than ever anx- in formally anneXing the islands to the United States, so as to leave Spain and other nations of Europe no ~round on which to base their protest. President NcKinIey has been strongly urged to take possession of the islands as mil itarv necessity, and if Congress was not in session it is probable he would do so. He is reluctant to take any such action however, while Congress is in session and while the question of an nexation is pending in that body. The military necessity exists, however, and the administration will avail itself of every privilege granted by the Ha- waiian Government to use the islands as a military and naval base.
 There Is no escape from doing so, in fact, and but for the facilities for coal Ing and provisioning vessels and trans ports at Honolulu the administration

LONDON, Nay 26.-Thcre are re- newed and sinister predictions of an impending revolution in Spain con- tained in a special dispatch from Mad rid to-day. Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria is said to have strongly advised the Queen Regent to prepare to fly, and her mother, who is now in Madrid, is reported to have given her the same advice, but, it is added, the Queen Regent Is determined to remain.
 Continuing, the dispatch says that the defeat of the palish fleet, which the best informed people regard as only a question of a few days, is bound to precipitate an outbreak
 LONDON, May 27.-The Madrid cor respondent of the Daily Mail says: The present outlook is brighter and the Ministerialists believe that Cabinet crisis can be averted. Captain Aunon, Minister of Marine, declared in the Cortes to-day (Thursday) that when an opportunity presented itself the Cabinet would not fail to do it's best to bring about an honorable peace.
 LONDON, May 27-The Madrid cor respondent of the Times says: The dominant public opinion here is de- sire to find some way to a honorable peace. as Spain has nothing to gain by an indefinite prolongation of hostilities.
 All idea that France will intervene, however. is now abandoned and hopes are fixed upon the possibility that the Duke Alrnodar de Rio, the new Minister of Foreign Affairs, will find some fitting occasion on which to take the initia- tive"
 MADRID, May 26-According to El Fpoca the conservative organ, the Cab inet Council to-day, the Queen Regent presiding, discussed three points in the proposed note to the pOwers-the man. ner of the bombardment by the Amer1- can sduadrons, the alleged use of the Spanish flag by the Americans at Guantanamo, and the cutting Of inter national cables by the Americans.
 Duke AlmOdar de Rio conferred until a late hour this evening with Se- nor Leon V Castillo, the Spanish Elm .bassador to France.
 MADRID. May 26, D. m.-In the Chamber of Deputies Senor Cassell, director of the Imparcial, denounced the alleged acts of some of the Amer1- can warships as being contrary to in ternational law. He also moved that Q pension be granted to the family ot the captain of the Reina Maria Crls- tina. who perished at Cavite.
 The Minister of Marine, Captain Aunon. accepted the proposition.

| in New York on February "a on sus-
Of Mrs. Mary Kenny. in Staatsburg, on
the night Of November l, 1897, made a
confession in the county Jail at New
City to Dominic Rossini, a detective.
Rossini was sent to Jail ostensibly as
a prisoner on January &c Rossini at
once set to work to gain Briordi's con-
fidence with q view to extorting a con-
fession from him, and. according to his
own story, has at last succeeded. Car
mem, he says told him that about IL
o'clock on the night of the murder he.
with Pasquale Biancardo, Rafaelo Dis
abio, and his wife Maria. went to the
cottage in which Mrs. Kenny lived, and
gaining an entrance made their way to
the room where the woman was sleep
ing.
Maria Disable, he said. had a stiletto.
with which she stabbed Mrs. Kenny
three times, killing her. Carmen said
he then left the room and Maria came
out afterward and gave him a $40 gold
piece as his share of the proceeds OF
the murder. He told the detective that
he did not know how much money there
was in the house nor how much Maria
Disable had obtained.
After the murder. Carmen said they
all returned to their homes in SloatS-
burg. Carmen stayed there until re-
Gently and then went to New York,
where he was arrested on February "a.
The next day he was brought up to
locked him up in the county Jail at
New City to await the action of the
grand jury.

bio and his wife, Maria, We're commit
ted to the Jail several weeks ago and
We're indicted by the last grand jury
for the murder Of Mrs. Kenny. Maria,
who is charged with the murder by
Carmen. has been very nervous and
hysterical at times since her confine-
ment in Jail. Many articles which be-
longed to Mrs. Kenny have been found
in the homes of the persons arrested
for the murder, and they will be pro-
duced as evidence in the trial, which
will take place in the Rockland county
court in June.

San Jose. Cal, March 25-The comet discovered
