THE FRANCO-SPANISH-ANGLO AGREEMENT.
CURBING GERMANY'S TALONS. PRESS OPINIONS. London, June 18. French and English newspapers unanimously acclaim the Spanish agreements. , Le Matin declares that it is now almost impossible for Germany to make W at sea. The Times says: "Our reasons for entering into an arrangement with Spain are manifest. The routes to India and the Far East in peace or war pass the and harbors of waters included in \ the agreements for hundreds of miles. It {g of the highest moment to us that these coasts a'd harbors should remain safe and undisputed in the friendly -'hands now holding them. We could not /■fa our own interests suffer the posses- * Sore to be molested, whether we, by formal agreements, or not by agreements, clear up and proclaim our inevitable J policy." Reuter learns that before the text ot the Anglo-Spanish Note was published, - it was thought more courteous to communicate to the Powers the terms of the agreement, to enable them to see its sole aim was to consolidate the Btatus quo in the Mediterranean,. which always has been the common object of the policy of all the Great Powers having an interest jn the Mediterranean.
