a large crop of authors. During 1898
it is said that about seven thousand

more than a million copies of maya
zines. Then there are all the dailies
and weeklies, whose aggregate issues
10 year must reach at least three
billions. These figures are bewilder-

Madrid. May G.-The French govern

here that it would regret to see the cX-

Spanish stocks are mostly held by
Frenchmen such a measure would be
calculated to hinder Spanish negotia-

The death rate during the month

The declaration of Mr.. Caypless
that the overthrow of the monarchy
was conspiracy OF local self-seekers
is the frozen truth. And he might
have added, aided and abetted by
the diplomatic and consular repre-
sentatives of the United States, and
finally accomplished by the naval
forces of that country. The fact Of
the conspiracy can be established
beyond doubt il one will take the
trouble to read the dispatches Of
Mr.. Stevens, the United States
Minister, written months before the
action Of January ", 1898, in which
was outlined the proposed action of
the local conspirators. The revolu-
tionists of 1893, cannot afford and
