Bitter Feeling Among Spanish Troops

Not Been Paid.

HAVANA. VIA KEY WEST, FLA,
Oct. 25-The bitter feeling among the Span
ish troops against the government Tor not
paying them is increasing daily and men-
aces possible outbreaks, entailing serious
trouble before long. The Orden PubIco
constitute the most seditious and turou-
lent element. At first the government
proposed to pay only those who were
discharged Then, after protest, it offered
to pay all by promissory notes, which
was refused No cash settlement has been
made. and the entire body expresses Its
dissatisfaction openly.
Yesterday eighty irregulars, MovilZados
from the Camaguani regiment, arrived
here and went to the palace to demand pay
Their attitude before General Blanco was
such that he ordered them to be taken
to the Cabanas prison on pretext OF beng
fed there. but they have not been allowed
to leave the prison, and 10 all lntentS anu
purposes, are under arrest,
Twenty-one members of the civil guards
of this province also presented themselves
at the palace to demand payment. iney

| CHICAG,ct. ga special to the Jour-
nal from ;hington says:
The staepartment has discovered a
clever scht on the part of the German
government acquire coaling stations or
naval base both the Atlantic and the
Pacific at lts where they will come in
| direct conf with the interests of this
country the Nicaragua canal is
built.
In this s. connection the department
has also urthed what appears to be a
breach of 4 on the part of England to-
ward the led States in Samoa. Since
the death King Malietoa, Germany has
been runnithings in Samoa apparently
independent the triple protectorate ex-
ercised owe by the United States, Great
Britain .an,ermany
Careful istigation has convinced the
state depannt that Germany and Eng
land have le a secret compact whereby
the latter ceded to the former its
rights in soa under the protectorate,
and has conted, for a consideration, to
allow Gerry to utilize the island as a
coaling andval station.
While thiompact between England and
Germany iSt in actual violation of the
protectoratt is yet practically a breach
Of faith one part of England, because,
while profeig the utmost friendliness for
this countrit has given to its rival in
the Pacific Ihts which may cause a Sc
Tious clash.
Germany bent on securing naval sta
tions as n to the proposed isthmian
canal as pdble.
II It has lgland's claim in Samoa, It
is establishat the Pacific end. For the
eastern end is working out plan which
MAJ give state department much
trouble to cumvent.
1t is said at Germany is trying to Sc
cure a nav base at Santo Domingo.
Should shesucceed here, the United
States, whi,expects to build the canal
would find ;lf at a disadvantage at the
outset
Porto Rics to be the American naval
base in the'est Indies. 1t is admirably
situated foris purpose, but should Ger
many securt foothold in Santo Domingo
it would be a better strategic position
for control the canal than would this
country.
The repub of Santo Domingo is heav-
lily in debt. ,ost of its bonds are held in
Germany, the kaiser expects to ac-
quire a navstation by threatening fore
closure on bonds.
