Spain Considers Joining Franco-Russian Alliance

THERE is now a prospect of Spain's joining the Franco-Russian alliance. Overtures for such an alliance have repeatedly been made by France during past years; but now, in view of her losses in the war with the United States, Spain is looking more favorably upon the alliance proposition. As an indication of a change of spirit among the people, the Spanish paper, El Heraldo, says: 'Let us strike out 'manana' (to-morrow) from our vocabulary, and put 'hustle' in its place.' This is another indication of the tendency of the nations to "line up" in preparation for the great struggle.
