Senators Belittled

London, Dec. 15. - The Times, commenting on the Cuban situation, expresses the hope that the Spaniards ■Will "continue to disregard the vituperation of the jingo senators and abstain trorn imitating them, adding: "The American government maintains a correct and neutral attitude, and as long as it does so Spain can afford to smile at Senator Chandler's offhand recognition of the Cuban republic." The Globe says: "When these wild men rave at England, British feeling regards them as amusing lunatics, whose grotesque antics do not carry danger to either country. But the Spanish are more easily inflamed to anger, and there is some danger of Spain falling into the trap when the piratical Xaurada reaches Valencia. Spain has endured much contumely from the great republic, but there are tnany indications that this passive submission to insult will not last much longer. It would be well, therefore, for the Washington government to place restraint upon Senator Chandler and his colleagues. If Spain decided to uphold her honor by arms a naval war might have results not at all agreeable to the American Chauvinists."
