ton car coming and quickly applied the

Coincidently, it is more than probabl
that the "courting" which is going on. is
not without concealed connection with
other matters. Queen Victoria tells her
great and good American cousin that ma
val hostilities between him and little AL
fonso would badly cripple British COM
merce between our principal seaports and
England. That idea. offered merely in the
way OF an additional reason for hoping
that peace may be preserved. is also. Der-
haps, a diplomatic method Of preparing
America for a British assumption that.
therefore. there may be grounds for some
sort Of European Intervention. II il were
not for the wild and inseusate rage Of
the whole Spanish people against Ameri-
ca and Americans. and, on this side an
equally universal determination to punish
Spain for the Maine massacre. and to
drive her forever out Of this hemisphere.
the work of the Cabinets and their fnan-
cial proprietors would be easy and cheer
ful. IL is always useful to remember that
the Spanish-Cuban bond deal still domi-
mates the situation. The syndicate of
spectators who are I'm il. is composed Of
the money-lending magnates who dictate
the financial policies of Great Britain and
this country and who own the Queen Re
gent and Senior Sagasta. All the current
talk in Europe Of arbitration is suggest
ed by this interest, which manifestly
would not like TO have Spain plunged any
deeper in the mire of bankruptcy than she
Is now and which yet has hopes that
some sort of n settlement can be reached
under the terms Of which the Spanlsh-Cu-
ban war debt, or most of it. can be sad
