t
Madrid, Aug. 9. Senor Canovas del
Castillo, prime minister of Spain, s
assassinated yesterday at Santa Agu
eda by an anarchist. The murderer
fired three shots, ohe of which struck
the premier In the forehead and an
other In the chest. The wounded man
foil dying at the feet of his wife, who.
was with him. He lingered In agony
for two hours, and then passed away
with the ory ot "Long live Spain,"
which were the last words upon his
Hps.
Santa Agueda Is noted for Its baths.
The place Is between San Sebastian,
the summer residence of the Spanish
court, and Vlttorla, the capital of the
province of Alava, about 30 miles south
df Bilbao. The premier went there last
Thursday to take a three weeks' course
of the baths, after which he expected
to return to San Sebastian to meet
United States Minister Woodford when
ofllclally received by tho queen regent.
The assassin was immediately arrest

namo of Itinaldi, but it is believed that
PltEMIEII CASTILLO.
this Is an assumed mime, and that his
real name Is MIcheleJAnglno Gollt.
The murderer declales that he killed
Senor Canovas "In accomplishment of
a Just vengeance," and that the deed is
the outcome of a vast anarchist con
spiracy. I
He is believed to have arrived at
Santa Agueda the same day as the
premier, and ho wasl frequently seen
lurking In the passages of the bathing
establishment In a suspicious manner.
Senor Antonio Canovas del Castillo
was born at Malaga,. Feb. 8, 1828. He
'took-Uievcourse- ln-fthlloaqphy andlaw4
In the University of Madrid, and began
his career as a journalist. In 1851 he
made his debut, under tho patronage
of Senors Rlos, Rosas am Pacheco, as
chief editor of the Patrla, in which ho
defended conservative ideas. About
this time he published a volume of lyric
poems and a series ot historical papers,
In 1852 he was named deputy for Mala
ga, and from that time to his death
had never ceased to occupy a seat in
the cortes. In 1S56 he was charge
d'affaires at Rome, and prepared the
historical memorandum on the affairs
of Spain with the holy see which served
as a basis for the concordnt.
After serving the crown as gover
nor of Cadiz in 18B5, director general
of the administration from 185S to 1861,
and lastly, in that same year, as under
secretary of state for the interior, the
queen called him to the ministry as a
member of the Mon cabinet. In 1865
he held the portfolios of finance and the
colonies In the O'Donnell cabnet, and
It devolved upon h'm to draw up the
law for the abolition of the slave trade.
Shortly before the revolution of 1868
he became especially conspicuous as
one of the last to defend with energy
In the Cortes the principle of blending
liberal and conciliatory Ideas with the
constitutional monarchy, when all the
parties that had supported this political
doctrine had deserted the parliament
He was banished a short time before
the revolution occurred and took no
part In It,
In the face of the triumphant revolu
tlon, after his return from exile, and
in the full constituent assembly of
1868, supported by Senors Elduayem,
Bugallal and two others, he hoisted
the standard of legitimate and con
stltutlonal monarchy. This Is his
greatest title to fame. His fidelity and
ability finally secured for him the su
preme direction of the Alfonslst party,
and on the proclamation of Alfonso
XII king on Dec. 31, 1874. Senor Sano
vas del Castillo became president of
the council and chief of the new cab
inet, palled thp cabinet of conciliation
He retired In September. 1875, because
of the demands of the extreme oonBer
vatlve party, but he wag called back
to the presidency of the council on
Dee. 2 of the same year, and charged
particularly with the direction of the
first legislative elections of the new
regime. He was himself elected to the
oortee from the city of Madrid In Jan
uary, 1876. It devolved upon him then
to repress the Becond attempt of the
CarTlstB to bring on a civil war and to
deal with the first Insurrection In Cuba.
With the exception of an Interval
of a few months be continued to hold
the premiership down to 1879, when, on
the return of Marshal Martinez Cam
poa from Cuba, he retired from the
prPiprshii and was succeeded by
Camppp, who accepted as ha colleagues.
the principal associates pf Senor cano
vas. The opposition raised to the pol
loy of Campos poon forced him to re
tire, Senor Canovas skillfully resisted,
delayed and finally defeated the free
trade and emancipation projects of
Campos, On the reassembling of the
oortOH In December, 1879. Campos gave
up the attempt to conduct the govern
ment, and Senor Canovas formed a new
cabinet on Dec. 10. with a second Cuban
Insurrection to deal with.
He charged General Waneo with this
task, hut the reactionary tendency ot
his home pol'ey ucame more and more
marked until the financial projects in
which he wished to embark draw upon
him the bitter attacks not only of Cas
tellar and the IteiubHca,ns. but also
those of Campos Una ot sagnr.ta, anu
he was compelled to resign. In 1S81 ho
returned again to power, but hist con
servative eublnet was speedily over
thrown, and a, coalition government.
with Sagasta and Campos at Its head,
took the reins of affairs.
At the general elections of the same
year he was returned to the cortes from
Madrid and became the chief and
spokesman of the intermediate party,
known as the party of conservative
Liberals. On Jan. 18, 1884, he was called
upon to form a conservative ministry.
In order to secure a majority devoted,
like himself, to Ideas of order and of
liberty. In harmony with the monarch
ical principle, he dissolved the cortes,
and the new elections resulted favor
ably. But on Nov. 26, 1886, on the ques
tion of tho occupation of the Caroline
Islands by Germany, he was again com
pelled to resign, being succeeded by
Senor Sagasta. The same day he wua
elected president of the chamber by 222
votes, against 112 cast for Senor Romero
Itoblcdo, and he signalized his en
trance upon his new functions by a
funeral eulogy of King Alfonso XII,
Who had died the previous day. In 1890
another reversal brought him back Into
power, and on July 5 he took the presi
dency of the conservative cabinet, re
placing the liberal ministry of Sagasta.
Two years later the Liberals, under
Sagasta, won the general elections and
retained power until 1895, when dis
agreements in the Sagasta cabinet led
the queen regent to summon Canovas
again to the premiership.
Canovas came last into rjower on
Feb. 7, 1895. A number of officers had
broken into and pillaged the ofTlces
of various newspapers which had made
insinuations against the conduct of
officers engaged In suppressing tho
Cuban revolt. Tho war minister seemed
to support the officers, whereas the
premier, Sagasta, ordered the Journal
ists to be protected. This led to the
retirement of the ministry. Marshal
Campos was temporarily made captain
general of Madrid, and the greatest
excitement prevailed. Finally Senor
Canovas formed a ministry, although
he lacked the support of a section of
the Conservative party.
The government was defeated on a
vote of censure on June 3, 1895, but did
not resign. The general elections of
April, 189G, returned nn overwhelming
majority to the cortes In favor of the
policy of the Canovas cabinet, though
the opposition charged that the Min
isterialists carried many qtthe elec
tion districts by gross fraud. On June
2 last Senor Canovas tendered the re
signation ot the cabinet, owing to the
difficulty ministers experienced In car
rying on the government In view of
the parliamentary situation caused by
the refusal of the Liberals to take part
In the deliberations of tho cortes. This
attitude of the Liberals was due to a
personal encounter between the Duke
of Tetuan, minister of foreign affairs,
and Professor Comas, a distinguished
Liberal senator, on May 21, when the
duke slapped the face of the professor
after a heated debate on the Morgan
belligerency resolution adopted by tho
JInlted Statea.,ji8jTnt After four, days,
of conferences with the leaders of all
political parties tho queen regent re
quested him to withdraw the resigna
tion of the cabinet, and he did so, be
ing confirmed by the crown In his
ministerial powers, with the personnel
and policy of the cabinet unchanged.
Senor Sanovas was the author of
numerous works In moral and politi
cal science, and a "History of the
House of Austria," which is In high
repute, and a "History of the Decllno
of Spain from the Accession of Philip
III to the Death of Charles II," which
ranks favorably among works of Its
class from Spanish writers.
