Situution at Manila.

Madrid. May 20.-In taking possession
OF the admiralty the new minister of ma
rine made a patriotic speech to the as
sembled officers, recalling the splendid
example set by our sailors at Cavite in
dying for Spain"
Advices from Manila say the situation
there has not improved. Captain General
August, ii is added, has regulated the
price of provisions. 1t is also reported
from Manila that the foreign colonists
have sent the captain general expressions
of sympathy with Spain. This is markedly
the case with the German colony and the
action Of the Germans is said to be due
TO orders received by the German consul
from Berlin.
