William Miller Collier agrees that sending a new ambassador, rather than elevating him, is more complementary to the King of Spain. Collier has heard good things of incoming Ambassador Frederick W. Whitridge. Collier gets on well with the Spanish Premiere, Segismundo Moret, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Juan Manuel Sánchez y Gutiérrez de Castro. He has been giving dinner parties attended by all the Court and the government.
