Ambassador Cllinda, Bryan went, to
the White. House to submit to the
president the written communication
which the ambassador had given him
and Chinda returned to the embassy.
A cabinet meeting followed and when
Bryan left. the conference at noon he
would make no statement. The cabi-
net remained in session for short
time and the members refused to dis

that the general subject had been gone

permit Bryan to lay before it and the
president the results of his further
conference with Chinda, which follow
ed the cabinet meeting today
The second conference with Chinda
was short, as Bryan had to take the
1890 train for New York, where he
speaks tonight at a banquet. Bryan
said the conference with the a1nbas-
sador would be resumed tomorrow,
upon his return from New York.

Paris, May 9.-The POLITICAL results
of the visit here of King Alfonso of
Spain have not been disclosed but it is
the opinion in well informed. circles
that a close understanding between
the French and Spanish governments
has been attained and may develop
into an alliance. Virtually the entire
press of France except the socialist
newspapers expresses itself in favor of
such an alliance, which they say will
add 100000 excellent soldiers to the
defense of France, and make Spain a
secure field for the investment of
French capital, thus developing the
latent resources of the country.
Spain will be raised, it is also point
ed out, to an important place of dip
lomacy in Europe. Alphonso's visit
ended tonight with a review of
Frances aerial fleet.
Count Alavero De Romanones, the
Spanish premier, speaking to the rep
resentative of Liberte, said: To-day
Spain and France reached a friendly
agreement. Tomorrow the two, coun-
tries may take further steps, The
understanding we attained will result
