SPANISH ACTIVELY
PREPARING DErENSES.
Intense Excitement Prevails Over the
Findings Of the Maine Board
of Inquiry.

NEW YORK. Marcia ss-The Worlds
Madrid correspondents says that the Span
ism ftotilla. now On the way from the Can
airy islands. consists OF three torpedo
boats. three dsssroyers and the merchant
steamer City OF Cadix. carrying coal. 1t
has been stated that there are thirteen ves-
seis in the feet.
The Spanish government Is endeavoring
to secure torpedo dessroyers and cruisers
in England and a cruiser from Italy.
Great activity is reported az Cadiz. Fer
roi and Cartagena arsenals. Coast de-
lenses are being strengthened in Spain.
the Balearic islands, Couta and the Can
airy islands. The minister OF war has OBJ
tanned credit OF sl.3oo.o0o for war stores.
Intense excitement has been caused in
political and financial circles. and in fact
among ali classes OF society by the news
of the report on the Maine. In fact, even
the ministerial papers. like the Liberal.
the Correo and the Correspondence, say
Spain can so no further In concessions TO
the United States.
Much disposition il still manifested by
the press and governing classes TO expect
moral and material assistance from Eu-
ropean powers IL war or serious con-
fiict arises.
In court circles Germany and Austria
are said 10 be willing to interpose when
opportunity arises.
Probably the Madrid foreign Office will
soon place a review of the whole Spanish
case and the relations between Spain and
the United States before Europe and the
American public in the shape of a memo
ish residents abroad.
