The present war has brought to light the fact that Dr. Antommarchi. who attended Naipoleon during his last ill ness at St. Helena, is buried in Santia go de Cuba, where he gave his services free to the poor for many years. Exports of corn and corn meal last year went up to the unprecedented fig tire of $75,260,067, an increase of $20,- €OO,OOO over any preceding year. The corn exported exceeded in value more than a tiuru of the exports of wheat and flour. A New York paper remarks that judging from the description of the "uniforms" worn by the American and Spanish crews in the naval engage ment at Santiago, Anthony Comstoek will never consent to a reproduction of that battle on the stage. Probably the I.adrones will be the favorite American resort for nervous exhaustion. The Spanish governor of the islands had heard no news for three months, and thought the can non balls fired in his bay were some new kind of complimentary salute. "Our Navy Vindicated," is the cap tion of an editorial in an exchange. When has it been, from John Paul Jones to the present time, that the American navy needed l vindication? It needed modern ships for a quarter of a century, but it never lacked in the character of officers and men. Joseph M. a lawyer in Cleve land, ()., after ten yearsiof married*life divorced his wife and married her seamstress. Then he divorced the seamstress and remarried his first wife. In less than a year they were again divorced, and now Nowak has married the seamstress once more. One of the gratifying and unexpect ed developments of the war has been the friendly attitude of Japan. So far as the formal limitations of neutrality permit the Japanese government has on every occasion shown its good will for the United States, while the senti ment of the people themselves is un mistakably friendly. The girl students of a school iri >Pisv souii sent the following lines to some of the boy students among the troops at ( hiekamanga: Fare je well, intrepid heroes. Haste to war with its alarms; You'll return to find us sheroes, Waiting here with yawning arms; If the Spaniards do nrtt plug you In the sanguinary fight, Hasten baek and we will hug you, In wild spasms of delight. Admiral Dewey has once more shown that he is abundantly able to hold his own as against enemies in the Philip pines and' unfriendly influen'cesoutside of the islands. The German warship Irene prevented the Philippine insur gents from attacking .lie Spaniards on tirande island, whereupon Dewey sent two vessels to investigate, at which the Irene withdrew and the Spaniards, after receiving a few American shots, surrendered. On Sunday, May 1, Commodore Dewey attacked) and destroyed the Spanish fleet in Manila bay. On Sun day, July 3. the squadron of Admiral Cervera was destroyed by the Ameri can llect in front of Santiago. On Sunday, July 17, the Spanish army at Santiago formally surrendered to'ien. Shafter, and the American flag was raised over th ■ first capital of Cuba. These three Sundays are red-letter days in American history. It will be remembered that when Cer vera reached Santiago with his famous fleet a banquet was given him, at which the archbishop of Santiago mad'e a speech, during the course of which he said: "it is not enough to win victory on the sea. The Spanish flaff must float from the capitol at Washington." It is evident from the way that archbishop has been begging Oen. Linares to surrender Santiago that he has changed liis mind about hanging the Spanish flag over our capitol. Statistics published by the treasury bureau show that the foreign trade of the United States for the year ended June 30 was the greatest in its his tory. The e:w>orts amounted to $1.2 31,311,868, an increase over those of the previous year of $180,318,312. The imports free and dutiable were sr, 16,052,844, less by $148,677,568 than those of the previous year. Of gold, in coin, bulflion and ore. there were ex ported $15,405,301 and imported $120,- 391,674. " THE WAR FUND LOAN. DcuiocrnlH Are Shou n tlovi to (taint* Money Without ItexortiiiK to S> ndlcatcN. The democrat ic press of the country shows plain signs of being disgruntled over the popular feature of the new war loan. This is not stiange. It is, in fact, a party matter. During the last democratic adminis tration a large block of government bonds was issued and the entire amount was allowed togo to a multi millionaire syndicate manipulated by President Cleveland's former law part ner in New York, Mr. Stetson. The people were not allowed any chance at those bonds, first hand, and the syndi cate made a profit of several millions. That record is made prominent by the contrast it presents to the present case. If President McKinley had followed in the footsteps of President Cleve land a perfect cyclone of indignation would have swept over the country. The democratic press would have found the English language all too feeble to express their wrath, and the republican press would have recog nized the justice of the indignation. Yet there was no more excuse for syn dicating the Cleveland than the .Mc- Kinley bonds. There was a popular demand for both. The republican press took the same position then in favor of giving the people a chance that it did in this latter instance. The same arguments, substantially, were used in both ca.?es. The democratic press was indifferent, and by ac quiescence shared with Cleveland re sponsibility for that syndicate. The popular feature was even a greater success than reported when the time for subscription closed. That date of closure was the 14th inst., and a Washington dispatch of the 18th states that since, tile 14th nearly 20,000 sub scriptions have been received. Some of them were delayed in the transmis sion and will be accepted; others were too late. Subscriptions to the amount of SSOO or less will absorb fully SIOO,- 000,000 of the bonds, or one-half of the whole. The other half will nearly, if not quite, be absorbed by subscrip tions under $5,000 in amount. The en tire loan is thus distributed to indi vidual subscribers in small lots. As a matter of course some of these subscribers acted as agents, no doubt, for others who furnished the money, but such eases form at most only an insignificant percentage of the grand aggregate. Some of these bonds were subscribed as a permanent 1< an or investment and some with a view to making a profit on them. The government sold the bonds at par. They will probably command a premium. This profit will be small at best in any given case, and will be widely distributed. It will be made, if at all. not out of the government, but out of the second-hand purchasers— namely, the banks and other moneyed corporations which want larpe blocks of bonds and can get them only by go ing into the open market. The Cleve land-Stetson syndicate made its mil lions of profits by second-hand sales. The aggregate profit of the new bond holders may be even greater than that harvested by the syndicate, but it will be distributed among the people. Everybody had an equal chance, so far as the government was concerned, to subscribe,and thus share in the profits. It is snfe to say that no future ad ministration will dare fro back to the syndicate policy in placing bonds. The republican party can add one more trophy to its long list of great achieve ments. A republican congress ttnd a republican adm'nistration between them succeeded in what no other nation on earth has ever done. All other governments, great and small, have placed their loans through great banking houses. Great Britain has the Hank of England, France the Ttank of France. Spain the Bank of Spain, and so on all alon£f the line. Behind and nbove all these, including even the Batik of England, is the great house of Bothscliild. which made millions out of the Cleveland administration. Fdr many years now these p-reat moneyed corporations have exacted 101l from their governments and from minor states, quite ar a matter of course. At last the United States has shown the nations a more excellent way to financier their bans. They have given the civilized world what onplit to be. in government finances, an epoch making object lesson in the highest brnnch of political economy.—Chicago f nter Ocean. Two of (i Kind.

But Bryan is in the same camp with Bailey on the anti-annexation foolishness, as he was on the silver fraud. Bryan and Bailey are two of a kind. Whoever condemns the smaller featherhead necessarily condemns the larger also. The new Rryanism—to give back to Spain all the territory which we wrest from her at a loss of many lives and of hundreds of millions of dollars in money—is just as vicious as the old Bryanism was, but as it will never command as many sup porters it will not be so dangerous St. Louis Globe-Democrat. is sometimes talk of silver republicans, but when they get down to a ballot ii> a convention as in a fusion convention in Oklahoma the vote stands: Democratic. 153 populist. 151; scattering. 7.

A Magnificent of Ameri can (It I Zfiixli 11> h■■<l a Slap HI the I'opulladi. It certaiuly pays to be honest. The United States asked for a loan of $200,- 000,000 at three per cent, interest, and the report of the assistant secretary of the treasury, issued on the day after the bids closed, shows that $1,365,000,000 was offered. If a business man should ask for a loan, and should receive offers for seven times the amount asked for, it would be the gen eral opinion that that business man was financially sound. So itiswith the government, and no greater tribute could be paid to the existing gold standard than the success of this war bond issue. We do not need any money tinkerers, and if the people will go about their business and labor the money will take care of itself. This war bond issue has been the most successful ever offered in this or any other country, and it furnishes a lesson to the world of the unlimited re sources of our country. There are 225,- 000 subscribers for amounts of SSOO or less and those subscriptions alone will aggregate $90,000,000, almost half of the sum asked. All of the smaller sub scriptions will be accepted first, and all subscriptions for over $5,000 will lie rejected, so that it is very apparent that the populist howl about "Wall street will gobble up all the bonds" has been stopped by a slap in the mouth. The number of subscribers aggregate 300,000. and as one in every 50 men will be a "bloated government boldhoider" it is very plain that the populists will have to say less in the future about the people who hold bonds. lowa alone furnished 5,600 bidders for bonds, and most of them will be accepted. The first issue of the new bonds will be made on July 26, and from that time daily shipments will be made to the full capacity of the bureau of engrav ing and printing. Every American citi zen is to be congratulated on the re sult of this bond issue. It was neces sary in the first place to obtain a large loan for carrying on the war, and it is a magnificent testimonial of Ameri can citizenship, when the people of moderate means can open their purse# and furnish $200,000,000 on short no tice. —lowa State Register. VICTORY OF THE TREASURY. A S|>len«] i«l Showing, Helped Out 1» j (IK* Patriotism of the People. In this war the victories of the treasury department have not been less significant than those won on the sea and land. In fact, they are just as essential and just as brilliant, though of course they are not theatrical nor melodramatic, liy reason of this they might escape attention were it not the part of a newspaper to be just in praise ami quick to give credit where credit is due. I'p to this tkne almost $100,000,000 in cash has been paid out on account of the war. This is not to be looked upon as the cost of the war, for it is diffi cult to draw the line between ordinary and extraordinary expenses. liut the expenses over the same time last year have increased about $75,000,000. So it is fair to infer this represents the cost of the war thus far. Two-thirds of this is chargeable to the war depart ment and one-third to the naval de partment. Hut there are other expenses, which do not show in the cash expenditures, in the way of large sums due on con tracts not yet complete. This would swell the total materially over the million a day that has gone out thus far. As large as this sum seems, it will be much larger when the whole army is in the field, as the expenses there are much greater than while in camp. But this outgo, enormous as it is, has been easily met, and there will be no pinch for months to come. Within a few days the $200,000,000 loaned by the people will begin to pour in. In addi tion, the increased receipts from in ternal revenue will be felt almost im mediately. and this will be no mean sum. It may reach $15,000,000 a month, though this estimate seems too libera!. In any event the treasury is well forti fied for a few months at least. It is thus seen how brilliant is the victory of the treasury department, a victory worth celebrating, for on its work all the rest depend. A big fat purse is just :ts strong in war as a great big navy, even when manned by Americans. —Cincinnati Commercial Tribune. CURRENT COMMENT.

StutfH Caused lit real «Joy Honolulu. San«F ran cisco, July 28.—The United States steamer Philadelphia sailed for Honolulu yesterday afternoon with Admiral Miller on board. The Phila delphia will make all speed to Hono lulu. Admiral Miller, it is believed, carried no special instruction with him, but will remain at Honolulu until ordered elsewhere. Admiral Miller will raise the flag of the United States over the island until after the arrival of the Hawaiian commissioners, who leave this city for Honolulu early in August. From authentic sources comes the information that the arrival of the American troops in Honolulu will be followed by the mustering into the United States volunteer ser vice of the Hawaiian national guards, a force of 500 men. The steamer Mariposa has arrived from Honolulu, bringing the following advices: The steamship Coptic arrived at Honolulu from San Francisco on the evening of the Kith inst. with the news that the United States senate had rati fied the Newlands resolutions making Hawaii a part of the United States. Long before the vessel hail reached the harbor it was known that the steamer brought annexation nwws, the infor mation being signalled to the Mohi can. Whistles of foundries, mills and steamers were turned loose and pan demonium reigned. Fireworks were set off and 100 guns were fired. At the same time the Hawaiian band marched through the street to the wharf, playing American patriotic airs. An immense procession was formed and a march was made to the executive building, ('apt. Sealby, of the Coptic, was presented with a silver cup by the citizens of Honolulu for bringing the news. The leading men of Honolulu have recommended Harold M. Sewall, Uni ted States minister to Hawaii, for gov ernor of the islands. It had been gen erally thought that President Dole would be their choice. A HOT RECEPTION. Spaniard** Defeat an Attempt to I.and Slip ptien for Culinia-Slx Membern of the Kxpedition Wounded. Key West, July 2H. —News reached here yesterday of the attempted land ing on Cuban shores of a large expe dition—men and arms—by the steamer Wanderer, which left Key West about a week ago. Banes, west of Havana, was the point selected for debarka tion. but on arriving there the expe dition was confronted bv a body of cavalry numbering 1,000 or more and a sharp engagement ensued. The Wanderer was to have been met by a party of Cubans, who had evidently been dispersed by the Spanish before the arrival of the steamer. The Wanderer, which was not under convoy, drew up about 400 yards from the shore and began discharging her cargo by means of small boats. At first there was no sign of resistance and a portion of the supplies had been placed on the beach when a vigorous rifle fire was opened on the members of the expedition from a wooded growth lining the beach and a force of Spanish cavalrymen burst into view. There were about two score of sharp shooters with the expedition and they attempted to cover the retreat by lying flat and returning the Spaniards' fire. They picked off a number of the cavalrymen and as the opposing force backed to the woods, the Wanderer's men got their boats off, but not be fore six men had been slightly wounded. ALMOST A MUTINY.

Ga., July 2s.- The Third Kentucky, the Fifth Illinois and the Third battalion of the Sixteenth Pennsylvania left the park early Wednesday morning, under orders to proceed to Porto Hieo, but before the Fifth Illinois had time to load for its depart lire a rush order came from Secretary Alger for it to return to camp and ordering out in its stead the One Hundred and Six tieth Indiana. They will leave to-day. This is the second time that the Fifth Illinois lias been ordered back after being under orders togo to the front. All kinds of unsavory charges are being openly made again Col. Culver, the commanding officer of the Fifth, not only by privates but by subordi nate officers. They claim that the regiment has been betrayed by Col. Culver, who represented to President McKinley that the regiment is not fit for field duty. The subordinate offi cers claim that the command is in splendid lighting trim. As soon as the full situation dawned upon the men they left the ranks by scores and last night nearly 100 members of the regi ment left camp, most of them with out leave, and came to the city.

Seattle, Wash., July 28.—The Rosa lie, the fourteenth treasure boat dur ing July, has arrived from Lynn canal.

This increases the total gold importation this month to $9,811,600. The Rosalie's passengers came over the Dalton trail. They report that a stampede was being made to Indian river, owing to the discovery of rich diggings. .4 SQUARE GAME!. Spain Must Play It in Treating for Peace. N'o AriKilHfire Will he Derlurrd I'ntll th» Murine! G(iVKrnin«nt HUH MK<!<- Ilrfln- He rieilges that Will I'revent Any Attempt nt Double Dealing or Treachery. Washington. July 28.—The initiation of overtures for peace has had the effect of suspending', for the time be ing at least, interest in the military and naval situation. Though it is known, through the open admission of members of the administration, that the present peace phase would remain unchanged until after another cabinet meeting on Friday, there was evinced yesterday a disposition to discuss this matter in every aspect. Naturally the first point of inquiry was the exact shape taken by the Soanish presenta tion of Tuesday. Curiosity on this point remained ungratified and must probably so continue for some time to come, as the president has decided that nothing more definite than the statement issued from the White House 011 Tuesday shall be given to the public at this time. The motive is a prudential one and the president has suggested to the Madrid authorities the expediency of keeping the text of the Spanish overture from publication at this time. The next point of interest was the character of the demnnd likely to be made by the I'nited States as the con dition of peace. It is felt that the statement of terms of peace, both from Spain and the I'nited States, may be some days off. as there doubtless will be considerable diplomatic fencing at the outst t before the actual point of stating terms is reached. A good deal if this may result from the attempt to Jefine the methods of approach to the abject sought—whether through a commission or Ihrough the direct ex change of notes. It can be stated positively that the president is determined to lose no ground through Spanish diplomacy. An armistice, if granted, will be con ditioned upon the most binding pledges that it is to be followed by a treaty of peace. Moreover, the pre liminary agreement that provides for nn armistice must constitute in itself an undertaking on the part of Spain to submit to certain broad conditions imposed by the United States as the basis of peace. Military operations are togo steadily forward so far as the United States in concerned until the negotiations have advanced much further than they are at present. The president discussed this com plex subject yesterday with various members of the cabinet. Secretary Bay and Postmaster General Smith spent some time at the White House, presumably exchanging views with the president. It is virtually admitted by leading members of the administra tion that upon only one point in peace negotiations is there likely to be seri ous friction, and that relates to the future of the Philippines. As to Cuba and Porto Rico our government feels that there is a reasonable certainty of encountering little opposition to our demands. As to the Philippines there is a full expectation of greater difficulties to be surmounted. The president is firmly of the opinion that the I'nited States has no use for the islands as a per manent possession. The gravest prob lems of government would result if the attempt was to be made to annex them, owing to the ill-favored charac ter of the population of the islands, while any effort with other powers in a joint administration might result as unsatisfactorily as the trip artite arangement between the United States, Kngland and Germany for the government of the Samoa 11 group. There is little reason to doubt that Spain lias made up her mind to give up Cuba. It is almost equally certain that Spain recognizes that she must abandon Porto Rico. With these two vital points passed there is likely to be little delay on the question of in demnity, as there is every disposition here not to press with undue severity on Spain in this respect. About the only reason which would impel this government to insist upon an indem nity would be a further stubborn re sistance by Spain. The statement is made by an influential official that a settlement in which Spain conceded two vital points, namely Cuba and Porto Rico, and at the same time gained two vital points, namely, free dom from a war indemnity and a re tention of her control of the Philip pines would be just. A EATTLE WITH OUTLAWS. Three Desperadoes Killed, Another Fatullj Wounded and Two Captured. Kufala. I. T., July 28.—1n two dis tinct battles with deputy sheriffs, a of cattle thieves and outlaws who have disturbed the Cherokee and Creek nations for a long- time have been destroyed. The first fight oc curred six miles east of Checotah and resulted in one outlaw, a half-breed Cherokee named Petit, being mortally wounded; David Greatliouse, an ex member of the French gang, slightly wounded and captured, and one Caw horn captured. Later the remainder of the gang were intercepted near llragg, Cherokee Nation, by Deputy Marshals Ledbetter and Pialt and all of the outlaws killed. These latter were Goldsby, brother of "Cherokee Rill," Mose Miller and the famous "I'ickalow Bill." Itroucht Million* In I>u«t and Seattle, Wash., July 28.—The steam er Humboldt arrived from St. Michaels yesterday with 112 passengers from Dawson I ity and about $1,000,000 in gold dust and as much more in drafts. Among the passengers were some old timers, notably Otto Stander, one of the original discoverers of Eldorado. Stander had in his stateroom four iron lyixes full of nuggets, weighing about 1 *ioo pounds in all. John K.

He Was a Keen Hoy and Wan Equal to tlie Occasion \\ lieu luogbl at Mlachief. The farmer crept stealthily along behind the fence. Step by step he advanced, always with his gaze fastened upon the cherry tree, in the distance. "Uol durn them town boys, anyway," he muttered to himself, as he took a firmer grip upon th' 3 ugiy-looking switch that he had cut from the hickory back of the barn, "I'll show 'em!" Nearer and nenrer he drew to the spot where the engagement was to occur. Softly, like a tiger advancing upon its prey, he edged along through the weeds, from one fence corner to another. Meanwhile the boy in the tree kept crook ing his elbow at a 32 knot clip. The cherries were large and fat and red, and he had a wonderful tonnage. Ever and anon he would smack his lips, and eject a handful of stones from his mouth. It was glorious. Suddenly a rugged form seemed to rise op out of the ground, and somebody bawled ic tones that were husky with emotion: "Here, drat your hide, what are you aoin' up there?" It was one of those moments when a word may win all or cause all to be lost. The boy dropped the biggest, reddest, juiciest cherry that he had been able to reach, pulled himself together, drew his bare, bro\vn legs up under him, and replied: "I'm rememberin' the Maine.
