BANK OF SPAIN 1$ insolvent Says a London Paper. RESERVE TO REDEEM. Paper Money has Long ago Been Exhausted. London, Juno 18 —The Statist, commenting upon the war loan of th* United States, says: “The preparation for the Lan no doubt accounts to some extent for the fa'l in American railroad securities this week. The other principal cause is the collapse ot the wheat corner, and if there is very much sei linn oi Ameri can securities in Europe, as is believed on the stock exchange, then it is possible gold may soon be taken to New York in con sidarable amount. American bills are known to be offering, lndeed.it is said bills are being drawn against credits, in anticipation of ordi nary requirements. Therefore, it is not at all improbable that gold may be taken, and if it goes we shall certainly see a very considerable recovery in rates in London.” Under the heading “Is the Bank of Spain solvent ?” the Statist lengthily discusses Spain’s financial position, say ing: “Upon the bank’s ability to finance the continuation and duration of the war. Practically, tiie Spanish government is now reduced to the expedient of using the printing press to meet its war outlays, and the longer that printing press is in oppera tion and the mere notes are is sued the greater will be the de preciation in the value of the paper peseta. If the war lasts much longer, we may see the paper peseta, which is now at a discount of 50 per cent, depreci ate as did the Assignat of France at the close of the last century. The formal suspension of specie payments cannot long be delay ed. Indeed the suspensionshave practically occurred.” The Statist then presents an array of figures showing the ex act position of the bank, with a note circulation of 1,318,000 pes etas, without any certain reserve available for its redemption,and further pointing out that such note circulation may be increas ed to 2,500,000.000. Finally,the Statist says that in three years the Spanish and Cuban govern ments have borrowed 1,000,000,- 000 pesetas from the Bank of Spain. HOW'S THIS!

Camara is Said to Haun Qditted Cadii WITH HIS RESERVE FLEET Presented With a Flag of Hon or Before Starting. Madrid June 18.—Great secre cy is maintained here in regard to the destination of Admiral Camara’s fleet. The Spanish papers say that work is being actively continued on the forti fications in the Canary and Ba laric islands. The Liberal reit erates the declaration that “if Spain has nothing to hope from the powers, she is still able to defend herself.” Before the departure of the Spanish warships a flag of hon or embroidered by the ladies of Cadiz was presented to the offi cers of the cruiser Charles V. It was a solemn ceremony. The flag was blessed by a priest on the deck of the vessel, who made a patriotic speech. Capt. Aunon subsequently held a council of war with the commanders of all the ships of the squadron on board the bat tleship Pelayo. Capt. Aunon, after the departure of Admiral Camara, read the premier the following message: “The reserve squadron and the troops of the expeditionary corps on leaving Spanish waters send greeting to the government and the fatherland and affirm their desire to fight for them.” There was also telegraphed to the queen regent enthusiastic greetings from the squadron and announced the determina tion to fight to the last final honor. It is announced that Capt. Aunon, after inspecting the arsenal at Cartbagena, will return to this city and organize another squadron of war ships. He sent a message to the pre mier that he was much satisfied with the condition of the squad ron of Admiral Cemara. Pre mier Sagasta, it is said, hopes to prorogue the chamber of dep uties in the next week. PROFESSIONiL CARD! ATTORNEYS. J. BRANHAM, Law Office, 200.East First Street, ROME. GA. CHAS, W.
