BURLIN is MUCH PLEASED.
Berlin, June 3.-The announcement
of the cession of the Caroline and other
islands to Germany met with most
favorable reception here. The papers
which commented upon it laid stress OF
the success of the German policy, which
it is pointed out, accomplishes now what
Prince Bismarck was unable to do il
1885.
THINKS SPAIN HAS DONE WE'LL
Washington, June 3.-The opinion
here is that Spain has made IL very
good bargain in the price she obtains
for the Pacific islands. The cash com
pensation is about equal to the sum of
$4,000 600 in United States money,
which it is believed would alone be full
compensation. But in addition the
guarantees afforded by Germany, are
regarded as extraordinary. The permits
sion to Spain to retain three coalns
stations, and above all, the undertaking
to protect these in time of war are GER
tainly of great value. In fact, it is
said, the undertaking to protect the
coalng stations, for Spain, may be re-
garded as in Il sense committing Ger
many to an alliance with Spain, for it
is conceivable, to execute the guaran-
tee. Germany may be placed in a posi-
ton where she must 90 TO war for
SPANS sake
The concession that Spain may enjoy
favored treatment in trade with Ger
many and her colonies is said to be of
value so far as the mother country is
concerned, but of little Importance in
respect to the colonies of Germany.
