MADIIID , Auguit 21-Count Yan Solras
Sonenwnldo , German minister to Spain ,
protested against tha dispatch oi Spanish
cruisers nod troops from Manila to Yapa , the
largest of the Carolina Islands. Ho is re
ceived with marked cooloosi in court and
social circles ntLtGrangn. The government
organs declare Spanish public opinion may
compel the severing of relations with Ger
many , nnd an appeal to tbo powers ,
Germany' * reply to Spaiu'a protest against
Germany' * astumUion of control of the Caroline
line Islands has been received by the govern
ment hero. It is couched in friendly terms
and in it the German government olfera to
submit the claims of Spain to the Carolines to
n commission. It Is reported hero that two
Spanish war ibips occupied Ynpa , the chief
island of the Carolina group. The feeling in
Madrid against Germany Is BO bitter na to
cause alarm. Fears are entertained that hos
tile demonstrations will be made against the
German embassy and in conecquonco a guard
of police guard the building.
A patriotic demonstration against Germany
because of her action in connection with the
Caroline islands will , it is expected , bo held
hero next Sunday.
THE HL'ANISII 1'IIK39 INDtONAKT.
The Irritation against Germany increases
hourly. The official press nro mure indignant
over tha seizure of the Caroline islands than
the opposition press. Tue neivspipem gen
erally alvocato reprisals , Too German em-
baisador to Spain avoids all publicity. It ia
eemi-officlally Btatcd that tha goviimment in
tends a lupturo of commercial and diplomatic
relations with Gdrmuuy , unlesi Germany
abandons the claim to tha Caroline Islands.
Bismarck's reply to the Spauuh protest is
onsidorod ovnalva aud unaatUfaitcry , al
though he profeeses n willingness to submit
Spain's claim Co nn ex iminitiun by arbitrat
ors.

the president's only companion. The die-
patch said : "Come on at once. I want to
consult you about n patient. Answer nt
onca. " The doctor replied ha would so. lie
is n great friend of Dr , Ward , nnd hai often
been called In consultation by him. Al
though the name of tha patient is apparently

Sawyer had no doubt It referred to the presi

Dr. Siwjer ha * not raturned to Saratoga

TO THE WATER'S EDOK.
Pour WASHINGTON , L , I , August 21.
A Cro , causing tbe loss of over 8100,000 , broke
out on board tka steamer Colorado , lying oft
Plum Boacb , near bore , this evening. The
flamoa spread from tlio Colorado to tka fol
lowing shipn , nil ot which burned to the
water's edge and sunk : Minnesota , Susqno-
hnnna , Congress South Carolina , Iowa , Lotto ,
Grant and Fnirplny , All , with tbo exception
of tha latt two , belonged to the United States
navy. They had been condemnad , nnd were
bought from the government by Stannard &
Co. , who wcro to break thorn up for the old
Iron and plank they could gat out of them.
The fire broke out on tha forward deck of the
Colorado , where men were at work burning
up planks to get iron splkoa. On the tight of
the Celorado was the Smquehonnn , to which
ihe llim.03 spread rapidly , and before either it
or tin Ojlorado could bo towed out , the ( limes
bad eprend to the other boats.
TUB ! ALL BDIINBD LIKE TINKER ,
and the sky was rod for miles around. The
heat waa ao intense that it waj impossible to
go any nhcro near the burning ship ? , while the
crackling of ( he flames sounded like a sharp
crack of musketry. The tlimes crept alonu
the decks and bulwarks of the ships , and oat
their way up the ahroudi into the tigging ,
The picture uow presented of eight burning
vessels , outlined against a bank of inky clouds ,
wa one loog to bs remembered.
The fire burned BO fiercely that within
three hours nothing wns loft of the once
defenders of the United States but a few
charred planks and Ibating timbers. The
hulls tunk ot onca to the bottom , going down
with hisses and gurgles , amid a cloud
of Btoain from the water as it
swept over the burning wrecks. The Colora
do was tlia firat to sink , and as tha waters
closed over her , a mast from the Minnesota
tnppled over on the Congress and together
they
SOUGHT THE SANin BOTTOSl OF THE SOUND ,
The Suequehnuna burst loose from her moorIngs -
Ings , ana at one time the vaiioui furling craft
anchored nloncr the there appeared to be in
danger. She floated about litty yards from
shore , aud after trembling for a moment ,
keeled over and ennk. Tha South Carolina
and Iowa followed her to the bottom in nhoit
order , but before going down tha flames
puread from the Iowa to the Lotta Grant aud
Pairpby , two schooners lying near the shorn ,
and they too sank. Who
tbo owners of _ Mio schooners are
could not bo ascertained , as tbo crows became
BO mixed up in the crowd ot spectators , that
they could not bo found.
Mr. Stannard. in c.raverjation with a re
porter , said : The Iocs to me is not leas than
Sit 0,000 , as it was only for the iron in them
that I bought them , Hud the boats been
serviceable , the loss would have footed up
into the millions. " The Iocs on tbe schooners ,
it is said , will not bo leas than 625,030.
