An, indeed! Well, I'm not sorry for that. It will make our relations aft much more congenial. You are English born then, I take it?"
 ''Yes, sir; Bristol man."
 "This running of a contraband cargo to Germany can hardly be altogether to your liking?"
 He spat over the rail, and drew the sleeve of his jacket across his lips, as his eyes met mine.
 Twould be more of a pleasure, I admit, captain, to be putting over a trick for the other side" he answered, his fingers nervously gripping the rail, "but I shipped for this voyage fair enough, and I always held it a sailors duty to stick to his ship. Once I'm through with this job, sir, and I'll do my hearty bit for old England"
 "Well said, MT. Leayord," and I gripped his hand. "So far as I under stand this row, my sympathies are all on your side. I may as well explain to you that I have been induced to as- sume command because of the condi- tion in which I found the owner. As you must know, the man is helpless cripple, and his entire fortune is repre- sented by the cargo in this yessel.'
 "He is a friend of the Iady's, sir, I heard Dade say"
 "Yes, they knew each other ashore when she was young girl. It was odd enough for them to have met out boro ooain h11+ ctraoo.ov, .,.+i1J ie tho fact that this fellow McCann, whom I have locked up below, should have been the cause of Bascom's present condition"
 "You don't say, sir"
 "That is the story as Miss Vera Car rington tells it. There was shooting affray in a New York restaurant, over some woman. McCann shot him and bought his way clear"
 'sHe is rich, then?"
 'The fellow has more money than you and I will ever see, Mir. Leayord. He's in the only place now where it can do him no good"
 The mate shook his head doubtfully, his eyes wandering toward the men at the wheel.
 "I wish I was so coeksure of that, sir" he said soberly. "Theres some mighty bad blood forward on this ship, and it's my judgment we're not out of the mess yet by a long ways. Those wolves have got a scent of McCann's gold, and they'll never leave the trail until they get it."
 ''You don't think they would actually attempt mutiny?"
 They're not calling it that, sir. It's the cargo aboard, and your determina- tion to land it safe at Hamburg, which is going to make the trouble. There is only one German in the crew, sir the rest are all English and Swedes, ex- cept a couple of niggers. The Swedes and niggers will do whatever the oth- CTS tell 'em to, an the argument for ward, according to Dade, is, that it'll be no crime to capture this ship and run her into an English port. They're not ready yet but the devil will break loose presently, according to my no- tions. Wait until they hear what has happened to McCann.''
 "Well," said deliberately, i've shall have to meet whatever comes, MT. Lea yord. I talked with McCann again this morning and offered him his freedom

But for faint trail of smoke far to the westward, barely visible as the sun sank below the horizon, no eyidene, was discernible of any other vessel ip the wide circle. l hailed the lookout in the maintop, but the wisp of smoke was too for away for his eyes to deter. mine the course of the distant steamer although as he swept his glasses a bit farther northward, they became fixed and motionless. As I stared up at him, his voice reported:

 "Where away?"
 About three points off the port bow sir-a schooners topsail."
 "yery well, keep her in sight--a fish ing vessel likely"
 Both watches were on deck, clus. tered in a restless bunch before the forecastle, or overhanging the rail, evi- dently deeply interested in observing our efforts to get all possible speed out of the Indian Chief. The fading light gave me glimpse of their faces, and 1 noticed that both Liverpool and White were circulating freely from group to group. However, the men responded readily enough to Olson's orders, and sang cheerily as they tailed onto the ropes, Liverpool himself lead ing the way up the ratlines and out upon the mainyard as they sheeted home.
 The stars began to pop out in the arch of sky above, silvering the wa. ters, and we could no longer perceive what was taking place forward. The night shades settled about us, and the staunch Indian Chief drove her sharp bows through the black waste of sea in race to cross the zone of danger before the coming of another dawn. Apparently everything was in our fa- yor, and l stood there, leaning against the rail, chatting with Miss Vera, our conversation drifting idly.
 It must have been after nine when the girl left, complaining of bein chilled even in the protection of tn great cloak. I crossed the deck with her to the head of the stairs, and our hands clasped as we fingered there moment, the dim light revealing her face uplifted toward mine.
 You are not going below, then, MT. Hollis?' she questioned. Surely all goes well?"
 "So remarkably we'll" I admitted, "as to rather puzzle me. No, shall remain on deck until morning; not that I really anticipate trouble, but the entire responsibility rests with me"
 You do not feel that your officers are efficient?"
 "Only within their limits of knowI- edge. I like the men, and trust them, but at that they are only promoted from before the mast in an emergency. Neither possess any real knowledge of seamanship. You can go to your berth, and go to sleep, Miss Vera, assured that the ship will be in safe hands"

new Spain. We are indeed most fortu-
nately located outside the pale of this
terrible conflict. Much as we may
deplore it, it is inevitable that the
countries at war and the neutral ma
tons lying near them, will suffer IN
told losses during the long period of
conflict They will be burdened with
debt, their productive resources will
have suffered incalculable injury while
all their energies have been devoted to
destruction, their whole scale of life
will be clouded and dwarfed for ma
years to come. There will be revival
and reconstruction, to be sure, but it
will be the slow and painful effort of
countries wounded in the very vitals
of their social and political existence.
"As a purely natural and logical re-
suit of our geographical position, l
believe it will be inevitable that Spain
will undergo an unprecedented era of
revival and reconstruction, justifying
the hope of the birth of a new Spain.
1t is for US to prepare for this new
era which lies ahead for Spain" ptr-
sued the President of the Council.
"And we are doing this in many ways,
developing and undermining our rail-
ways, steamships, ports, and all the
factories or modern trade and trans
portation. The war has opened the
eyes of Spain and has disclosed to
her the position of prestige in the
worlds affairs which properly per
tains to her. That, 1 believe, will be
one of the most important results fol-
lowing the war, that we will see a new
Spain rising from the destruction in
evitable to this conflict"
"Your Excellency spoke of new and
enlarged relations with the new world,
Does this refer to relations with the
United States? ?"
'fMost assuredly it does," he replied.
81 am glad to say that our relations
with the great republic of North
America were never more cordial than
they are at present. But it seems to
me there is something more than a
platonic cordiality lying ahead Of the
two nations which lie closest to each
other across the Atlantic. After all,
it cannot be overlooked that we are of
common stock. There are ties of birth !
and blood between Spain and America !
as vital as the ties of language. And |
besides that, remember that Spain is |
the westernmost nation of Europe, |
out into the Atlantic toward
America, her ports lying closest to
the ports of America, and offering the
shortest and most natural highway,
not only between America and Spain,
but also between America and the
whole continent Of Europe.
America and Spain are nearest in
birth, nearest in geographical prox-
unity, and they should strengthen
their relations together for the great
era of reconstruction and revival
which lies ahead Of them when this
world-tragedy Of war is over"
