Qermumn military attaches who 'myitnessod
the flghtin around Santiago praise our. zoi-
dlers , and say what theyhave done-and
volunteers bore the brunt ot It aa well as
regulars-should not be lost sight of olther
in this or other co trles. They were amazed
at the persistence of our men's attack , and
say It. was simply "wonderful. " Carry the
newuj to those in Europe who think that
soldiering can be done only by standing
armies , Welded upon a steel frame of the
superb quality of our reigular army , our
young volunteers from the American pubhi
schools become a superior article of "food

With the unfurhing of the Stars and Stripes
over the old palace at Santiago tIme Spaniards
have lost time cIty that was their first foothold -
hold on the queen Island of the Antilles , and
this formality has marked time prophetic beginning -
ginning of the end of their sway in tIme
West tndids. Per 384 years the yeihow and
red flag of Espamia has floated over the city
of Santiago , the town having been founded
by Diego Velasquez ( Diego Columbus' lieutenant -
tenant ) in 1514 , Havana was not settled
until five yours hater , amid was then Christened -
toned with the annie ( San Cristoval do Ia

It will require a thmousamid millIons of dol-
loris to measure tim increase in the farmers'
receipts for last year's produce over time
values that prevailed In 18D5 , The total return -
turn for staple crops alone for this season
is estimated mit 1OOOOOOOO more than was
received last year. The wheat exported
from the United States during the past
twelve months soid for about mis much as
time whole ciop was ms'orth In either 1803 ,

According to program , Zola and his pub-
usher , Perreumx , . have received the full limit
of time law , and must go to jail for a year
and pay 3,000 francs each , The same tactics
that landed Ireytus ) in Devil's island were
pursued in this case. Wimile the trial was
public. it might just as well hmave been secret -
cret , for the government refused to allow
certain testimony to be entered that would

Any evidence bearing on the Dreyfus trial
ltsel was huahed by the public olilcials , and
thoseomeer df the army who were led into
making admissions favorable to the defense
have since felt the heavy hand of the gov-
eminent on th ir shoulders , A greater farce
than the Droyfus-ola trials has never been
perpetrated by courts of justice. It is barely
possible that Dreyfus is guilty , but there
has been no evidence to prove it ; neither
was the man permitted to prove himself
innocent. There is damaging evidence
against Count Esterhazy , but so far he ias
uot been tried , and Is not likely that he
ever wili be.
The British foreign omeo has just pub-
hisbed a report by the BrItish consul at
Loanda upon affairs in the Congo Free
State , He says that the task of reducing
the untamed tribes to order is enormously
increased by the lack of a common Ian-
guage , for the speech known as ICixi-Congo ,
which now possesses both a grammar and
dictionary , ceases to be generally udder-
stooti before Stanley Pooh is reached , while
eastward of this the tongues are as plentiful -
ful as the waterways. The missionaries
find this dililculty as perplexing as do the
state authorities , Another difficulty en the
Upper Congo is the labyrinthine system of
channels and tributaries , whIch render almost -
most impossible the work of introducing order -
der amid CoheBionu among the scattered corn-
munities over nearly a thousand miles of
territory along the rIver between Leopoldville -
ville and , Stanley Falls. This maze of water
and swamp is the cause of the unhealtbful-
nes so fatal to European life. It is estl-
mated that nine out of eyery ten state of-
ficinls die or are invalided in three years ,
and it was found lately that the average
length of service of 120 employcs of the
largest I3elgian trading company on the
river was only seven months out of the
twenty-four for which they contract. Nevertheless -
theless , progress has been made , in spite of
all dlmculties , especially in the restriction
of the liquor traffic on the lower river and
the total prevention of it on the upper
river , the suppression of intertrlbal wars
over a wide area , and the decrease of can-
nibahismn , not only by direct repression , but
by the creation and growth of feeling
against the practice , Moreover , the yoke of
the notorious Arab slave dealers has been
broken , and the traffic in slaves among the
natives themselves diminished greatly ,
while the natives are being drihied into habits -
its of regular work.

San Juan flautiste , the capital of Porto
Rico , against which the American guns
may soon be thundering , is situated in
reality not upon Porto Rico proper , but
upon a small Island ( called Morro ) , which
is connected with the mainland by brIdges ,
The town was founded'by time famous Ponce
do Leon In 1511. That great admiral of
Queen Elizabeth , Sir Francis Drake , cap-
tureti the place on one of his daring crmmises
and exactly 300 years ago time Englisim duke
of Cumborlammd took it agaiim. But time
Portoriquenos learned a lesion by these
two defeats and in 1678 an English attach
proved unsuccessful , Then , in 1797 , the Ingenious -
genious Abcrcronhlie himself proved unable
to repeat Drake's exploit and was obliged
to sail away after a futile three days' siege.
