 AFFAIRS Spain is just now being
 IN SPAIN. afflicted with various inter- nal dissensions and some think that there is an attempt at general Carlist revolu' tion. Several cor flicts have taken place between the government forces and armed Carlist insurgents. One of these bands hal. been pursued by the soldiers and es- capped over the northern border into France. General Weyler is in power as the minieter of war and 1t is said that he has leanings toward the Callist cause and it is even asserted that he failed to spp. press the rebellion in Cuba in hopes that thus Don Carlos would be able to se'zs the throne because Spain would be drained of its eoldiery in the war with Cuba.
