CASTELLAR. The Spanish Statesman’s Views on His Country's Policy. [opyright 1555 by James Gordon Bennett.] MapRip, Oct. 24.—[New York Herald Cable—Special to Tne Bee,]—Senor Cas- tellar, at & banquet of 1,500 republicans and liberals at Barcelona, made a speech very favorable to Senor Sagasta and the liberal policy. He thinks it best to accematize the parliamentary government and insure the triumph of progressive reforms 0 as to con- solidate public liberties and insure the tran- quility and prosperity of Spain, Senor Cas- tellar believes that personal government dis- appeared with the death of Alfonso XIT. Conservatives uselessly try to revive it by opposing the re-establishmenty of universal suffrage. Senor Castellar wants to get that voted before all other forms, military or economical. He declares himself still, in principle, a free trader, but a8 a statesman, would enforce the protection of native productions and agriculture against nations not disposed for a reciprocity of concessions or treaties, like England in the cattle trade with Spain. Senor Castellar s all Spanish republicans favor closer relati with France. The monarchy inclines toward Germany, having given her a treaty ot com- merce detrimental to Spanish interests, The true policy of Spain ought to be, at home, liberal and democratic with a retrenchment of the army and navy estimates, abroad neutrality, or Spain will, like Italy, plunge into unnecessary armaments entailing deficits and an increase of taxation to support the policy of alliances against na- tional aspirations and interests. Senor Cas- teilar thinks the Spanish monarchy, by imi- tating England under Queen Victoria, will last longer and be more popular, s g 7 WITH THE EMPEROR. An Honor Accorded Two of the Late Frederick’s Doctors. (Copyright 1888 by James Gordon Bennett.] BeruiN, Oct. 24 -[New York Herald Cable—Special to Tur Bee. |—To-day Profs. von Bergmann and Gerhardt had the signifi- cant honor of dining with vheir majesties at Pottsdam. Afterwards their majesties came into Berlin and drove along the Linden for the first time since the emperor's return from his tour, where they were warmly cheered. To-norrow his majesty will go to Blanken- burg to enjoy the shooting with Prince Albrecht, the priace regent of Brunswick. On Saturday, haviog returned, he is to receive from the municipal deputation an address of congratulation on the happy results of kis tour, and on Sunday will start for Hamburg, probably spending the night at Freiderichsruhe on his way through. It will be doubtful whether the chancellor will accompany him to Ham- burg. Thisactof condescension, as it is semi-officially pointed out, will be answer sufficient to the rumor that the emperor means henceforth to be his own chancellor, e WILLIAM'S RETURN, He Leaves Sunday for Friederichsruhe —Two Shrewd Americans. [Copyright 1888 by James Gordon Bennett.] 2%4.—[New York Herald Cable—Special to Tne Bee.]—The emperor leaves on Sunday for Friederichsruhe, He will spend the night under Prince Bismarck's roof and arrive on Monday in Hamburg, where great festivities are being prepared for him in celebration of Hamburg's recep- tion into the German custom's union, an event which was practically consummated on the 15th of this month. Prince Bismarck will not accompany the emperor. A South German paper contains a sensa- tional article about court life in Stuttgart, stating that King Charles is actually the tool of three American adventurers who protess to be spiritualists. Lately the king has created one of these American a baron. Another was made a privy counsellor. Whilst the king is very economical himself these Amer- icaus dispose lavishly of his money. The story is so sensational that 1t reminds one of the late unfortunate Bavarian king, Ludwig. e A Thirty Days’ Fast Ended.

Paris, Oct. 24.—[Special Cablegram to Tng Bee.]—General Boulanger was pretty sharply handled by the revision committee to-day, but he declined to be drawn into whathe called the details. He adhered to his former opinions in regard to the senate aud the presidency. He regarded the res- toration of the monarchy as a sheer impossi- bility. Two-thirds of France, he said, would rise against it. The country ought to de- cide the religious question, Politics must be prohibited in the army. The Mysterious Americans.

WasmiNarox Bunreap Tus Ovana Bes, ! 513 FOURTERNTR STIEET, Waismxa#ox, D, C., Oct. 24. § The secretary of the interior to-day handed down a number of decisions in Nebraska land cases appealed from the findings of the commissioner of the general land office. Awmong them was the case of James Connors, from whom Commissioner Sparks required new publications and proof in support of his pre-emption cash entry for lots Nos. 1,2, 3 and 4, section 4, township 89, range 44 west, Valentine district of Nebraska. The de- cision is reversed. In the matter of the appeal of Sarah A. Davis from the decision of Commissioner Sparks, rejecting her application to make homestead entry on the mortheast quarter section 4, township 1 north, range 82 west, McCook district, the secretary sustains the finding of the commissioner, In the case of James, N. Nesby, whom the commissioner of the general land ofice re- quired to relinquish one sub-division of the land embraced in his pre-emp- tion entry, covering ‘the southeast quarter of the northeast quarter of lot 1, section 21, and lots 4, 5 and 6 of section 23, township 1 mnorth, fange 20 W McCook land district; the secretary holds that as the land lies in different quarters his case comes within the rules in the case of J. B. Burns, and the entry should approximate 160 acres as nearly as existing subdivisions will allow. 1t is now ten und three-quarter acres in ex- cess of the quarter section and by the re- linquishment of the smallest lot, it might be braught within less than eight acres of that amount, and as the claumant sets forth no sufficient reason why ‘the rule referred to should not be abplied i his case, the decision of the commissioner is aftirmed. On June 1, 1887, the commissioner of the land offices held for gancellation the pre- emption cash entry of A.Wilmeth for the northeast quarter of section 25, township 7, north, range 26 west, McCook district, Ne- braska. The commissioner, who, at that time, was General ks, was dmsatisficd with the proof that h submitted this in good faith in making the entry. He had broken the requisite mammber of acres, had built a sod house, put up@ fence and a stable, and @ frame house had been erected and improvements to the value of 130 had been made, The secretary,says he is not pre- pared to find that the ant was acting in bad faith; but he does mot believe that he has established his right %o the patent, and he therefore modifies the decision to the ex- tent of requiring that the claimant shall be roquired to make proof again before tbis patent is allowed. ., MONUMENTS.

HEATH. e FARMER DALRYMPLE'S VIEWS, He Thinks Wheat Should Not Be Held Back Too Long. Farco, Dak., Oct. 24.—Oliver Dalrymple, of the world-famed Darlymple farm, and ac- counted one of the shrewdest men engaged in farming, gives it as his opinion that there will be a further advance in the price of wheat during the winter, but he does not an- ticipate much advance until after the wheat has passed out of thé hands of the farmers into the elevators. Tt is believed by many farmers who are holding back their wheat for higher prices that, notwithstanding the light crop, it will bring as much money into eneral circulation a8 ‘last year, but Mr. fmrymplc does not share that opinion. The amount of wheat they will be able to hold back, he thinks, has been overestimated. The ¢rop is unquestionably very lght and most of the grain of inferior quality, there being quite as much rejected this year as of No. 2 last year. The farmers have notes to meet this fall, and very few will have any considerable 'quantity of wheat left after they are paid. The encouraging feature of the situation is that the present high prices are likely to continue two or three years longer, and with moderately good crops we shall be able to realizq handsome profits that will enable the (lrm% to pay off their debts. The effects of this will, of course, be felt in all lines of business, Cattle Mej In Trouble. Cn1cAGO, Oct. 24.—All railroad companies which receive stock for shipment allow transportation for the necessary number of attendants to take a gar of animals en route.

He struck out Chicago's best batters, mowing down Jimmy Ryan twice and Anson once, and eight men altogether. After the ‘‘0ld man" had fanned the air in a vain attempt to solve the Iowa curves, he watked off to one side and comforted himself with the reflection that he had secured a treasure for next year, Anyway. Anson kept his eyes on Hutcl admiringly all through the game, and seemed greatly pleased with his prowess. Baldwin pitched a good game for Chicago, holding the All Americas down to six scattered hits. It looked, tnough, as if Chicago would be shut out till the eighth inning, when a passed ball let in Chicago's first run.

Cuicaao, Oct. 24.—|Special Telegram to Tur Bee.|—Patrick Egan, of Lincoln. Neb., who i8 in the city,was asked what he thought of the Parnell commission so far. Mr. Egan is one of the noted Irish-Americans arraigned by the London Times with Mr, Parnell and his compatriots. He said: *‘What has been said so far is simply a rehash of the charges,without proof, that have been made for the last five years. 1 suppose, however, that the Times, with all its money, ability and resources, will be able to make a plausible showing. But wait until the evidence for Parneil is produced. The whole Times case will be exploded and indis- putable evidence developed which will show Parnell guiltless and the true character of the allegations inst him. You may ex- pect some sensational testimony." ““You have private information concerning Parnell's defense " *“Yes; I know something of it. I shall myself, perhaps, be able to tell some things which have not been printed in the event of a sub-commission be ing sent here to take de- positions of those of us in the United States. I have no doubt of the complete vindication of Parnell und all lus associates, and this result will greatly injure the government. The government is completely bound up with the Times, supplying testimony, money and countenance in every way, and the destruc- tion of the Times' case will hurt the conser- vatives very much, and if the Parnellites are beaten it will hurt them, to be sure.” ———— Vork of the Commission. LoxpoN, Oct. 24.—When the Parnell com- mission resumed its sitting to-day Sir Charles Russell, counsel for Parnell, demanded the production of certain letters which the Times possessed and which were alleged to have been written by Dillon, Biggar and other memers of parliament. He said that Soames, the Times' solicit had filed an afidavit afirming that tl Times had; received the documents from an American named Roberts; that some of them proved to be bogus, and that on this account they had not been used in the O'Donnell case. This ad- mission that somebody was supplying the Times with forged letters, said Sir Charles, had a direct beariug upon the Parnell-Egan forgeries. The ddcuments must therefore be produced. Attorney General Webster hela that the documents demanded were not material to the issue. The affidavit of Soames showed clearly that somebody had been trying to trick the Times, and the knowledge of the trick had been communicated to Parnell's solicitor. The court ordered that the documents be produced. Russell then asked the particulars of the charges against Parnell and those involved with him. The attorney general informed the court that the other side still continued to disobey the order for the production of the league's bank books. Justice Hannen intimated that if the refusal to produce the books was final, the court would have recourse to its pow- ers to compel their production. Attorney General Webster then continued the presen- tation of the Times case, making a further review of the articles on ‘‘Parnellism and Crime.” He declared that evidence could be adduced Emving that Parnell knew that Patrick Egan had supplied Sheridan and Boyton with funds to enable them to pro- mote outrages. One of to-day’s features was the presence Michael Davitt. He addressed the court and claimed the right to appear for himself, to which the court assented. New York, Oct. 24.—|Special Telegram to Tue Bee.|—Ten armed desperadoes, com- prising a ring of the notorious stable gang of the First ward, yesterday committed a most daring daylight robbery.
