London, Dec. 20. The Madrid cor cespoadont otitic says: Senor Sagastu'a Illness liasurouKiit to a stanstlll the political crisis, and the negotiations for tlio reorganisa tion of the liberal party. Many lib erals arc opposed to General Wcyler becoming minister of war. because they fear ho jwlll aspire to succeed Sagusta as leader of which he Is rep resented as declining to ulvc any In formation regarding the crisis, but as Instating upon the necessity for u strong government. Such u gov ernment could not, ho said, be drawn from a party led by Senor Sllvelu. Oencral Wcyler hinted that tlio country would run great risks unless power were placed In the hands of u Sagasta-Wcyler coalition cover s ment. The Bank of Spain has ceased to make advances upon the Philippine and Cuban bonds.und has asked a sup plemental guarantee for previous ad vances, owing to the decline In the value of the bonds. Rome:, Dec. 20. The Agenzca ltall uno asserts that a German syndicate has promised Don Carlos a lean of DO,- 000,000 francs, In three Installments the tlrst when he has 12,000 men un der arms; the second whenho has cap tured llllboa, capital of the province o( lilscay. and the third two months after operations are commenced. London, Dec. 20. Tlio Venice cor respondent of the Times says: Don Carlos, who Is In porfect health desires mo to deny absolutely tho re port that he contemplates abdicating. On the contrary, he says, ho is moro resolved than ever to f ultlll his role tothoond. He authorizes mo to as sert that ho has asked no audience with tho pope, and has requested nothing else (from his holiness. Cairo, Dec. 20. A farewell ban quet was tendered to Lleutcnant-Oen-eral Sir Francis Greenfell, tho re cently appointed governor of Malta, who now retires from tho supremo command of tho Anglo Egyptlun fones In Egypt.

The Judge Is In excellent health and spirits, nnd tho trip n broad has evidently been bencllclal Judge Day, when asked as to his plans for tho future, eald he expects to remain In Canton and resume tho law In the linn of which lie was a member beforo entering the cabinet of President McKlnley. The work of the commission ended when the treaty was delivered to tho president and he does not expect to ro to Wash ington again In connection with any duties on that commission. While ho talked freely on many matters connected with his work In Paris, Judge Day did not feel at lib erty to give an Interview In detail on the work of tho commission. Ho said the talk of 9100,000 compensation for the commissioners, or of any sum ap proaching that amount, was ridiculous and preposterous. The president fixed the compensation of tho coromlssson ers, and noneof them, it Is safe to say, accepted the duties as a speculation. None of them has an Idea of a largo fee, such as would havo boon paid had they performed the duties In tho capacity of regu larly retained attorneys. There Is no actual precedent on which 'to baso an estimate, but the prediction Is ven tured that the compensation of tho commissioners will not exceed 310,000 each, and tho reasonable expenses Incurred for the wives. aud families of the attaches of the commission, be cause all such went on tho journey en tirely independent of tho commission, nnd were In no way a chanro upon tho otllclal party. Thcro were but two critical porlods In tho negotiations, tho first regard ing the Cuban debt, which wasun open question for more than a month, during which tlmo tho Americans novcr swerved from tho position pre sented to the Spaniards. The other was upon the Phllllpplao cession, nnd after tho Americans hud reached n conclusion In their own councils as to the concessions that could bo grated, there was no deviation and tho Span lards finally accepted. Tho personal relations between tho representatives of tho two govern ments were at all times friendly and cordial. Tho Americans havo great re spect for the ability of the Spanish mombers,i nnd bolteve that nothing was left unsaid or undone that could benefit tho Spanish case. The presi dent of tho Spanish commission was rcmanccd as a man of great ability by the Americans, nnd won their respect by the ablo manner In which ho con ducted tho Spanish case. MARRIED.
