his love of ease, but whose wife is

wanted an opportunity to worry about
that grain, or perhaps hint to his wife
and then go to sleep while she slipped
out and attended to it.
He thought the matter over for
some time and then hunch ed the good

Berlin, Feb. 1.-THE official British
denial that Lord Pauncefote, the Brit
ish ambassador at Washington, on
April ID, 1898, made second proposal
to the powers to demonstrate with the
United States, was laid before high
German official, whose functions give
him absolute first hand knowledge of
everything just as it occurred. He re-
affirmed the statement made in these
his copious notes he dictated there
from to the correspondent of the Asso-
ciated Press the following data:
"On Feb. IA the Spanish ambassa-
dor at Berlin asked the German gov.
ernment whether Germany was will
ing to head European movement
against the United States in defense
of the monarchic principle. The next
day the ambassador was informed by
order Of the emperor; that Germany
would under no circumstances take
the action desired. ;.
"Spain renewed her efforts in March
to secure action by Germany, but she
was again answered with refusal.
At the same time DR.. Won Holleben
was instructed to take part in any
steps at Washington in the interests
of peace only if all the other five gov.
ernment powers participated. Then.
on April Z, the joint note was handed

der, the German representatives at
Washington, Rome, Vienna and Ma
drid were instructed that Germany
would refuse to participate in such a
declaration as she saw no prospect
that anything could be accomplished
thereby"
The correspondent of the Associated
Press gets the impression that while
the German government wishes to
avoid the appearance of desiring to
fall into the United States arms, on
the other hand she regards it impor-
tant to controvert the wrong impress

anything unfriendly to the United
