bring ing any pressors whatsoever to bear at Berlin and Vienna Ztor the heir apparent the Prince of the Asturia is but 10 years old and would have before him a minority of etx years There would be an Inevitable contest for the regency between Queen Ena who la or English birth and sympathies and her mother in law Queen Christina who a a Hapsburg and a sister of the Austrian generalissimo naturally leans toward the Ventral powers King Alfonso has two brothers in law Of these one the Infant Fernando who makes his home at Madrid is by birtb a scion of the reigning house of Bavaria and intensely pro German while the other the Infant Carlos married en secondes noces to Princess Louise of France sister of the Dukes of Orleans and of Montpensier I is naturally heart and soul for Franoe and hey allies The contest for the re genoy or rather I should say the quarrels in connection therewith would lead to all sorts of political Intrigues and disturbances which would leave Spain wholly powerless to play any role whatsoever In the affairs of Eu irope in this the greatest crisis of its history Under the circumstances it will be readily understood that King Alfonsos life Just at present is more than ordinarily precious ot his people and exposed to exceptional danger at the hands of foreign assassins Consuls Levy Blackmail As an illustration of the boldness of the German officials in Spain and of their insulting disregard for the sovereignty of the king and of his government I may mention that for some time past the German consuls Rar icelona Bllboa Santander Cadiz Car i iagena ana other Spanish ports have been granting so called safe conducts to Spanish merchant ships pretending to secure them against being sunk or captured by German submarines in the Mediterranean or on the Atlantic They have been charging for these safe conducts at the rate of J100 apiece under the heading of Inspection fees and an additional rate of 25 cents a ton on the registered tonnage of the ship The money thus extorted was nothing more nor less than backmail and in one instance at Valencia the German con su after receiving and pocketing his 1100 fee for Inspection declined to give a safe conduct on the ground that the oranges which constituted the cargo were wrapper in paper bearinr a stamped portrait of Queen Ens the consul ejecting to the Queen of Spain on account of her English birth Last month a wireless message from Madrid to Berlin was Intercepted by the wireless station on the summit of the Eiffel Tower at Paris and was at once communicated by the French government to the Spanish Ambassador for transmission to Madrid It was nothing more nor less than an appeal from Prince Max Hohenlohe to his government at Berlin for more money in orcier to intensify tne work of the Spanish press In favor of Germany and to bring about the fall of the cabinet of Count Roraanones Envoys Grave Charges The arrival of this extraordinary message at juaana coincided there with the appearance in La Naclon a Ger man financed and German controlled newspaper of an Interview with the German Ambassador in which he de clared that the sinking of Spanish ships by German submarines was a severe and much needed lesson for Spain whom he had repeatedly warned not to allow herself to be dragged Into trading In contraband of war He added that the lesson was all the more timely owing to the fact that the premier Count Romanones was bound to the powers of the en tente by material Interests that is to 0JT Wll 1V AlA lCUllimi A4AAXXa4A IV be bribed by the allies So intense was the Indignation caus ed by these attacks on the premier which were a matter of public discus sion in the cortes that Count Ro manones considered It necessary to tender the resignation of his cabinet to Don Alfonso who however as was to be expected assured him of his en tire confidence and begged him and his fellow ministers to remain on in office This action of the king was subse quently indorsed with enthusiasm by an overwhelming majority in the cor tes where republicans and conserva tives of every class united In pledging I their support to the liberal adminis tration until the end of the war so that the nation could present a united front to any foreign foe Blunders of Diplomacy As in the case of Count Bernstorff at Washington so did Prince Hohen lohe at Madrid persistently Intrigue with the political adversaries of the administration in order to embarrass it to frustrate its alms and to discredit It in the eyes of the people Indeed the efforts of Prince Hohenlohe In this direction weer even more brutal and Insulting than those of his colleague at Washington But whereas Count Bernstorff was able prior to his departure to organize obstructions of various kinds to the ctlon of the President ana to nis projects an that Frinoe Hohenlohe has achieved has been to reconcile for the time being the va rious elements of the Spanish opposition to Count Romanones They have not only agreed to abstain from making any inquiries or Inaugurating any debates which might be embarrassing to the king and to the premier but also to postpone until after the war the debates on the legislative program of the government contenting themselves with voting not merely the ordinary Budget but the additional supplies re quired by the state for purposes of naval and military defense Prince Hohenlohe indeed Instead of keeping Spain out of the war has I brought it much nearer to participa tion therein and whereas two years ago the oountry would have been very divided aDout drawing the sword against the central powers seeing that there are no less than 100 000 Germans many oi tnem reservists at DreSent In the peninsula the people will now if necessary enter upon the fray on the
