The departure of the Spanish party was made without noticeable demonstration, and although a considerable number of secret service officers and police were on duty at the depot, there was at no time any occasion for their doing mere than keep- ing back a crowd of curious onlookers. Just before the departure from the lega- tion, the Austrian minister, Mr. Hengel- muller, and Baroness Hengelmuller dropped in for a last word, and several other mem- bers of the diplomatic corps called to make their final adieus. This done, the legation was vacated and the party ‘assembled at the Pennsylvania depot. As the minister entered the station he was recognized by the crowd, which closed in about him until gently cautioned by the officers. No word of indignity were spoken, and the salut tions of those in the crowd were rather agreeable than otherwise. He smiled in acknowledgment of the attention given him, and several times touched his hat. Following him came Senor Pabler Soler, first secretary of the legatign; Senor Ac- quaroni, second secretary; Seners Pla and Almeida, attaches; Captain de la Casa, military attache, and Lieut. de Carantha, naval attache. Senors Du Bosc and Ga- larza did not accompany the party, as they will remain until this afternoon in an un- official capacity. The minister spoke feelingly of his de- parture, saying the “circumstances were most painful to him. Ono of his intimates ventured the assertion that-he would be bac soon again under much more favora- ble circumstances, but he shook his head and eau he conor this could not be the case.
