but thole aio no conceivable cliciim-
stances that would Induce her to sup-
poit Spain against the United States
rheie is undoubtedly a sluing sentiment
n ( lotmany and Pianco hostile lo the
Momoo doctiine. but neither of llion' '
ountiles would be likely to manlfrst
this hostility by giving aid to Spain in
i war with tills conutiy. No other Hiiro
lean nation Is In a position to allotd
such aid if It desired to do so.
If Spain should go 10 war with the
United States , Iheiefoie. she would
lave lo cairy on the conflict single
