TERESA A FIXTURE.
Abandoned Warship Not as BADLY
Of as Renorfed.

NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-The steamer Antiila
is at present in this port Her second officer,
Edward Weber said today that when the
steamer was al Cat island the Infanta Maria
Teresa was lying in about fifteen feet Of wa
ter and the surf was breaking over her. She
lying easy and not on the rocks but
with her nose in the sand.
Had the surf not been so high l believe
that We could have pulled her off, said Mr.
Webber. Il questioned the natives and learn
ed from them that the Maria Teresa first ap-
peared in ofing about o'clock in the morn
ing, the third day after she abandoned
She rode in gracefully and had she been
brought in under skillful guidance she could
not have come ashore at a better place. She
went on the shore at II o'clock the same
morning in which she was sighted. 1t is my
opinion, well the opinion of the oilers
on Cat island that for some reason an at
tempt was made by those on the Maria Teresa
to have her sink before she had drifted far in
the storm. All the square port holes above
the water lines were left open, bu-, in spite
of this, there was only three feet of water in
her when she came ashore. | believe that the
crew when they left her were anxious that
that might be the last of her. She is lying
at present with very slight list TO port As
her stern is presented 10 the breakers the
waves, as they break near the stern, run
alongside, making little vibration The
pumps were all right and the working parts
are above water. l believe that the vessel
will not go to pieces. but will remain where
she is for years. Her military masts have
gone by the board, and are lying on each side
OF her..

SPAIN YIELDS GRUDGlNGLY.
DepIG'res the Apathy of Europe in
Her Extremity.


MADRID, Nov. 23.-The proposals Of
the United States peace commissioners
have been received here without any
public sensation. The general feeling
is in favor Of a speedy end of the ne
gotiations. The newspapers lament the
'ungenercsity' of the United States in
offering such a small indemnity"
They think that Japan or some Of the
European powers would have paid a
higher price. There are those who
contend that it will be better to de-
cline indemnity altogether, because the
government could then decline respons-
ibility for the Philippine debt. There
is much irritation at the apathy Of
Europe. The Impartial says:
President Mckinley now boasts of
having himself written the protocol for
the purpose of misleading Spain. This
is adding insult to injury Yet Eu-
rope looks on undisturbed. All ideas
of justice has vanished from the
world"
