j It can be stated hirthermore that

'call on the Secretary ef State, tin re
I has been no conference between Sec

j the response ef Spain to the suyges- j
; tion that the interests of the United i
1 States and other considerations cle
'niaiidtd that the war "should not be
d)rolonged or indefinitely dragged

it is denied also that a special
envoy of Spain has been, or is about
to be, sent to the United States
she;rlly as a private negotiator, with
; special instructions from Senor Cano
; vas, tlie Duke of Tetuan. It is said
.that this, latter report probably arises
! irom the fact that Senor Solar arrived
;in Washington a few days ago, as
! note el in The Post, to succeed one of
I the Secretaries ot the legation. Senear
t
Solar was lormerly the secretary to
the Duke of Tetaun, and when his '
coming was first announced a report
similar to the present one wrts cir
culated and officially denied.

tions, as one of the marvels i our
State, the fact that forty millions ot
people in Great Pritain are able to
obtain almost a third of their supply
ot fresh meat irom the far-distant
countries of Australia, New Zealand,
and the Americas. Science may
point to this fact as one of the great
est of her nineteenth century achieve
ments. It has come from the brains
ot many great inventors. The ap
plications of steam power to ocean
navigation and the steady evolution
of the maiine engine co.ild not have
made possible the transportation of
fresh beef anel mutton for thousands'
of miks without a corresponding pro- j
gross in the application oi chemical j
science.
b'laan the statistic of this grc.dt ;
traffic, which we find in the Record,;
it appears that when it began, in iN.Soa
it made a small beginning. In that:
year 400 carcasses of iroz-a, mutton
were shippeel from Australia. I),ir-'

casses imported into Great Ihitain !

It is not a matter ul imme'eiiate im
portnaee, but it is interesting to know
the estimate put on the relative
strength ot the Spanish and Ameri
can navies by a competent authority.
The Saturday Review, of London, is
generally recogirzed as unusually
well informed and careful on such
points. In its latest issue it states
that "in mere number of counts fifty
eight, as against America's forty-two.
but the superiority is wholly ficti
tion." It sums up the American
force of battleships and cruisers as
thirty to fourteen lor Spain, the
former all "built since 1SS5," the
latter antiquated." And it con
cludes: "If the worst came, there is
j a chance that the Spaniards might
penetrate the long naval line of eie-
encc along the American shore, and
ome damage be fore they were
overtaken. But that they would very
soon come to a disastrous end in this
-dventtire is no more to he doubted
than that they wou'd from the out
-l U' ''V'v overmatched in
Cuban waiters." Another point of
ill greater sigmfcance is the
unquestioned superiority of the mor-
the Americans. It is not l.oast -
to assert that no American army
ot 200,000 uouid have wasted two
years in futile skirmishing as the
Spimards have m Cuba, and there is
