Oxk of Cervera's cantnrid oHiccrt Ba.vs that liis information is that 1) w *y's victory was unknown to the Span ish admiral until lie was taken pris oner. While the battle was goiniron at Santiago recently it was officially announced that C'ainara was bombard* iu<r Key West, This is a war of en lightenment as well as humanity. Com moiiokk Sciilkv is commanded by an acting rear admiral, whose actual rank is only that of a captain. Doubt less, the main reason why Sampson was preferred as commander of our Atlantic fleet is because he is an ex pert in matters of ordnance, gunnery and high explosives. On these sub jects lie is probably the best informed of any officer in the navy. One iiiM>Ri-:r> ash fokty-two vessels in ail are known to have been wrecked on Sable island. These were ships, brio's, barks, schooners and brigan tines. There has doubtless been a number of other vessels that have been wrecked on the island of which there is no record. In former years vessels would "disappear," but how, when or where did not trouble the world iu general. EvKiiY one surely must admire Cant. Fhillips. of tlie Texas. After the bat tle was ended he called all hands to the quarter deck, and, with bared head, thanked God for the almost bloodless victory. "I want to make public acknowledgment," he said,''that 1 believe in God tne Father Almighty. 1 want all you officers and men to lift your hats and from your hearts otter silent thanks to the Almighty." Naval constructors have been busy deriving deductions from the sea fight off Santiago. The representatives of the German and Russian governments will undoubtedly find after the exper iences of the Terror at San Juan da l'orto Rico and the ease with which the little Gloucester sent the I*l uton and Furor to destruction that the mod ern torpedo boat destroyer, the new weapon of the English navy, is it vastly overrated type of naval con struction. In the destruction of the Spanish torpedo destroyers, Flu ton and Furor, their force was obviously superior to that of the Gloucester, the yacht con verted into a destroyer of the torpedo boat destroyer and Lieut Commander Wainwright and his "plucky crew won the maximum reward of S'JOO per capita fur those on board the now destroyed destroyers. The complement of the Furor and Fluton was about 1-J5 men, which will give the Gloucester credit for winning Si.j.OUO. There was great rejoicing in Spain when Cervera <. r ot into the harbor of Sanllair o and there was great rejoicing in Spain when it was reported that Cervera had escaped from the harbor of Santiago. Likewise there was much satis taction in Spain when Ca mara passed through the Suez canal, and.of course, there will be much sat isfaction when Camara passes back through the Suez canal. And yet there are some souls who believe that Spain is not gettingher money's worth out of tliis war. It does not make good news any bet ter, but tiie fact that a single dispatch from Santiago the other day cost Sil,- 000 will convey to newspaper readers an impression of the unprecedented liberality of the arrangements which supply the earliest and best aceou ts of every striking event in the war. The New York Herald and its asso ciates the other day paid the suin of $21,000 for use of the cables long enough to secure transmission of the battle description sent by their corps 01 correspondents. Men who make a business of war are watching the performances of the Vesuvius with great interest. Al though she is called a dynamite cruiser, she really throws shells filled with wet<fun cotton, which is 155 per cent, moisture and can be handled without danger, but it is necessary to use a small quantity of dry gun cotton for a detonator. The dry gun cotton is extremely dangerous, and if a Span ish shell were to strike even a small part of that on the Vesuvius the ship would be blown into atoms. A suggestion worthy of attention here as well as in the west lias been made to the relief societies of Mis souri by a volunteer from that state. In a letter written from Camp Alger he says:"lt might be well if the patri otic people would make a donation to our hospital in the way of reading matter. Any book or other publica tion sent to the regiment hospital will be placed there for the use of the pa tients. What time a soldier spends in a hospital his life is in greater danger than on a battle field, to my mind." DEMOCRATS DIVIDED. Their Policy of Opiionl tlon Apparent I |»oit All Oo riiNlonN. In the face of the strong and pa triot it: national sentiment which lias been led by the present administration the democratic party is confused and doubtful. Its policy for years has been one of opposition, but it is an ungrate ful task to oppose the American move ments now so justly and grandly in progress. There are men in the demo cratic party who are wise and pa triotic enough to be unwilling to bar the progress of events, lint these men ! nd themselves opposed by the reac tionaries in their party. A conspicuous illustration is the democratic minority in the house of representatives. The democrats in the house decided to oppose Hawaiian annexation. I!ut a number of the mem bers of that party refused to abide by the caucus decision. Then an attempt was made to whip the recalcitrant mi mbers into line, and to decide that the action of a caucus was binding upon every member of the party. But the attempt failed disastrously. The discord among the democrats in the house is shown by the lack of loyalty to their nominal leader, Bailey, of Texas, an obstinatf* young man who has been compelled several times to endure tiie ignominy of seeing the reins taken from his hand at crises when cool-headed leadership was in demand. The democratic state conventions now being held add their testimony to the hopeless division in the party. Some democrats are disposed to dig Bryanism out of its suicidal grave and, as in Indiana, are endeavoring to re galvanize into life the dead cries of "free coinage of silver" and "tariff for revenue only." They would recall the memory of the fact that the Chicago convention with its "sixteen to one" absurdity presented an unreal issue, and by its wearing of the livery and clasping the hand of populism drove from the ranks of democracy its old line leaders and followers. Bryan him self puts on the shoulder straps of a colonel that he may get a high enough position to talk about war and the war policies. The more up-to-date members of the democratic party realize that the mill will never grind with the water that has past, and t hey are ready to discuss war measures and the new questions that are teaching the people that we are on a world that is round and can be circumnavigated. But here again the democratic fatuity is shown in the position of obstruction that is taken. The congressional opposition to the war revenue bill is reflected in demo cratic plat forms throughout the coun try, and as war opens the door of na tional growth and development demo cratic. voices, even as far apart as Bryan and Cleveland, unite in the cry "shut the door!" . It is the old spirit that objected to the war measures of thirty-odd years ago. and objected to the constitutional and other reconstruction that grew out. of those war measures. It is the voice of a party that is obstructive when it denies and destructive when it affirms. But this division in the democratic party emphasizes both the duty and the opportunity of republicans. The conventions of republicans that are being held show that the republican party is awake to its obligation and to its privilege. Loyalty to the admin istration and a cheerful readiness to enter the doors that open to larger uses for American ideals —these are the manifestations of a party spirit that, is alive. The formation of party lines in the view of the stirring events of to-day assure the result of the elec tions of three years—lS9B, 1899 and 1900. Tried and true men on platforms already marked out. in nation and in state—these will be the means to the desired result. And meanwhile, unable to catch up to the American triumphal car, in which the republican party is riding, the democrats turn to fighting one an other in the road.—Troy Times.

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JUL,Y 21, 1898. THE DEMOCRATS AND WAR, Political Mulcon tenia Who {llmlracl Notional I'roKrrsH for I'url iraan I'liritont-N. Every democrat in congress voted for the appropriation of $50,000,000 to pre pare tin* army and the navy for the war with Spain then imminent. That una nimity justified the hope that party lines would not lie drawn in tlit- pros ecution of the war, and the measures incident to it. But this anticipation has not l«een realized. The organ of the democracy at the national capital, the Washington Times, declares in an editorial on '•Democratic Folly" that the democrats in congress have com mitted about every error possible since the war began. This is not the accusation of a polit ical opponent, on th<' alert for some thing to condemn; is it the accusa tion of a newspaper dependent upon press reports for its information. The Times has the advantage of observa tion at close range. In support of this general accusation and its political re sult. the same paper adds: "Giving a grudging support to the va rious imperative measures which followed the original appropriation of $."">0,000,000 for the national defense, they lined themselves up almost solidly against the war revenue bill and capped the climax by easting the bulk of their vote in opposition to the an nexation of Hawaii, a consummation de voutly desired by a two-thirds majority in both houses of congress and four-fifths of the American people without regard to ' party. "The result Is plain. What was intended to lie and what was originally a purely American war has degenerated in the eyes of the country into a republican war, with all that that Implies." This is strong language, but, consid ering the votes in the house cast under the leadership of llailey, of Texas, and the attitude of the democrats in the senate, under the leadership of White and Jones, it is none too strong. As the Times truthfully remarks: "The re publican president stands before the world to-day as one pursuing a patri otic policy in the teeth of unreasoning democratic opposition." Following this clear and exact statement of fact, the Times concludes with these prophetic words: "When victory comes to him and Spain is humbled in the dust, when America's pos sessions are enriched by the addition of Hawaii, the Philippine s, I'uerto Rico, and perhaps the Canaries, Mr. MeKinley can truthfully say: 'This Is my work—mine and the republican party's. As we saved the union In 1 sfii, so now do we glorify it with victory. Ours the triumph, ours the spoils, including a majority in the new house of representatives.' "And the people on the Mh day of Novem ber will cry: 'Amen.' " It remains to be seen whether the party in the senate will heed these time ly words of warning. The people, irre spective of party, are patriotic and w ill show their patriotism at the polls. If a majority of the democrats in the sen ate repeat the ineffable folly of the house democrats tic rank and file of the democracy w ill disregard party bar riers and give to the republican presi dent and congress an indorsement jus tifying this forecast.—Chicago Inter Ocean.

Miles: "I'laya del Kste, .July 13.—At a meet ing between the lines at which (Jen. Shaffer, (Jen. Wheeler and Spanish (Jen. Torn I were present, the latter claimed that he is unable to act. with out authority of his government, but has received authority to withdraw and surrender harbor forts, munitions of war and eastern portion of Cuba, lie urgently request* until Thursday noon to receive answer from his gov ernment regarding offer of our gov ernment to send his forces to Spain, which was granted." : On the bulletin giving Miles' dis patch was written underneath the dis patch the following: "Permission to withdraw was de clined by war department." I he war department has made pub lit; the following statement concern ing the conditions in the hospitals near Santiago: "(•n the 11th of July a telegram was received from Lieut. Col. I'ope, chief surgeon of Shaffer's army, informing the surgeon general that there were 14 cast's of yellow fever in the field hospital which had been established for the care of such cases. Since that time information has been received that a number of additional eases have occurred. ICvery effort will be made to arrest the progress of flic disease by the establishment of isolation hos pitals in which the sick w ill be treated by immune surgeons and eared for by immune nurses." While the long expected fall of San tiago did not take place yesterday it is evident that the crisis has been reached. Within flic next ~'4 hours the city will either surrender or receive such a baptism of fire as seldom falls to the lot of a besieged town. The public in a telegram from (Jen. Miles yesterday was given the first notice that our government had offered in the course of negotiations with (Jen. Toral to send the Spanish forces in Santiago back to Spain. A few days ago it was stated that the president would insist upon un conditional surrender, but it appears that condition has been modified as indicated by (Jen. Miles. This was done from a desire to avoid useless bloodshed, for (Jen. Toral's army, re moved to Spain would be harmless to prevent our further operations in Cuba and would serve as good a pur pose as the destruction of the Spanish army. To allow the Spanish general to withdraw to the inferior and fall back on Havana, on the other hand, would put us under the obligation of overcoming that additional force when it comes to the siege of Havana. Our government also is moved to make this proposal to remove the Spanish forces to Spain through a strong desire to <'lo.se up the opera tions at Santiago at the earliest possi ble moment. GERMANS INTERFERED. One of Their Men-of-Wiir Tries to Take a Hand Againitt I'hillppine liiHurKeiitK - Sneaked Away When American Cruigera Appeared. Manila, via Hong Kong, July 14. The insurgents on .Inly (i reported that the German gunboat Irene, in Subie bay, refused to permit them to attack the Spaniards on Grand Island. Rear Admiral Dewey promptly sent the cruisers Kaleigh and Concord to investigate the matter. On entering Subie bay the Kaleigh opened fire on the forts, whereupon the Irene slipped her cable and steamed out by the other channel. The result of the fire of the American warship was that the Spaniards, numbering over 1,000 men, surrenderod everything . On returning to Manila the Irene explained that she interfered "in the cause of humanity," and offered to hand over to the Americans the refu gees she had on board. Dewey de clined to accept them. (Jov. (Jen. Augustin issued a procla mation promising to grant autonomy to the islands and offering the insur gents inducements to join the Spanish forces. (Jen. Aguinaldo, the insurgent leader, in reply, said the overtures of the Spanish commander came too late. On July 0 the insurgents made vig orous attacks on the Spaniards from all sides, with little result. They shelled the Spanish blockhouses and trenches north of Manila and captured the Spanish guns at Santa Mesa. There was a furious musketry tire all night long at San Juan. Santa Ana, I'aso and I'asayi, the Spaniards reply ing with artillery and musketry. About 400 native militia at Santa Ana have joined flic insurgents. The insurgents have rushed the Mstlate en trenchments. pushing forward to the walls of the fort, but they had to re tire at daylight. It is probable that flu loss was 100 men each. The Americans and the insurgents are acting independently, both con ducting their own operations and hop ing to evolve an agreement after wards. Washington, July 14. —The navy de partment has received the following dispatch from Admiral Dewey: "Aguinaldo informs me his troops have taken all of Subie bay except Isla Grand, which he was prevented from taking by the (Jerwian man-of-war Irene.

Washington, July 15. —"Santiago surrendered at three"was the signifi cant official announcement thut reached the president at 3:06 Thurs day afternoon. It came in a dispatch from a signal service official at Playa del Kste and told the result of the meeting of the capitulation commis sioners in brief and concise form. The lispatch was well ahead of the official message from Shatter. Santiago time is 55 minutes ahead of Washington, which accounts for the quick receipt of the result, the commissioners not meeting until 2:30. A few minutes after this message had come to the president the following was received by Chief Signal Service Officer Gree ley : "T'laya, July 34. —Santiago has sur rendered. J ON* ICS." The adjutant general received the following from Playa: "Adjutant General, Washington: riave just returned from interview with Gen. Toral. He agrees to sur render upon the basis of being' re turned to Spain. This proposition em braces all of eastern Cuba from Acer raderos on the south to Sagua on the north, via Palma, with practically the Fourth army corps. Commissioners meet this afternoon at 2:30 to definite ly arrange terms. "W. I{. SHAFTER. Major General." The war department received the following dispatch from Gen. Miles, written apparently before the final surrender of Santiago at 3 o'clock: "Before Santiago, July 15. —Gen. Toral formally surrendered the troops r>f his army troops and division of Santiago—on the terms and under standing that his troops shall be re turned to Spain. Gen. Shafter will ap point commissioners to draw up the conditions of arrangements for carry ing out the terms of surrender. This is very gratifying and Gen. Shafter and the officers and men of his com mand are entitled to great credit for their fortitude in overcoming the al most insuperable obstacles they en pountered. A portion of the army has been infected with yellow fever and efforts will be made to separate those who are infected and those free from it, and to keep those who are still on board ship separated from those on shore. Arrangements will be im mediately made for carrying out. fur ther instructions of the president and yourself." The statement that the Spanish proposition embraces all eastern Cuba from Acerraderos to Sagua is impor tant in that it shows the surrender to embrace all the harbor and contig uous territory of Santiago. It does not include llolguin and Manzanillo, where the Spaniards are reported to have considerable bodies of soldiers, as these places are west oi the sur rendered zone. The territory surrendered by Gen. Toral includes a population exceeding 125,000 when the country is in its nor mal state. It includes the important cities of Santiago, Guantanamo, Sagua de Panama and Baracoa. It is exceed ingly rich in minerals, sugar and cof fee. The large iron and copper mines at Juragua. Baiquiri and vicinity are owned by American companies. In the Guantanamo district are extensive plantations. Baracoa carried on an extensive fruit trade with the United States. The plan of the war department for returning the surrendered army of Gen. Toral to Spain will not necessi tate the use of American vessels. Tt is the purpose of the department to ask for proposals from all steamship •ompanies which desire to compete, for transporting the Spanish troops to Spain and the most advantageous bid will be accepted. The advices of Gen. Shafter state that the number of Spanish prisoners will be between 12,000 and 15.000. Identllied the IIOIMEH.
