If ma Heuqt Gould has conlrmed the report that she had tendered the United States government $100,000 to aid in . prosecuting the war against Spain, but she added that though President Mo Kinky had acknowledged the offer, it had not yet been accepted. Two recraits in Council Bluffs left their loaded revolvers where two yoang lads could get them, and immediately after they left the room, the youngsters got the pistols and began playing sol dier across the table, reraltiag in one et the boys being shot in the neck, death following in a very short time from loss of blood. The Armenian question in Europeso far as features of injustice and cruelty are concerned is somewhat duplicated in the Cuban matter on the western con tinent, but there is good reason to be lieve that the United States will give "The Powers" a good lesson in diplomacy and honest helpfulness. Already she has fully demonstrated her unselfishness good will for even the Spanish people. There is no doubt about the hostility of the continental European press against the United States. Bussia is an exception. The St. Petersburg Tiedo mesti, speaking for Bussia, says: 'The friendship which has subsisted for many years between the two states, excludes every idea of an unfriendly attitude upon the part of Bussia at the present juncture." The paper adds: "No doubt the United States government now val ues this friendship more than ever." Preceding and accompanying the vis ible contests on sea and land are the invisible, mental contests, and it is now plainly evident to be seen by every in telligent man who considers all bearings of the situation, that President MeKin ley has been doing very effective think ing for all the months of his term. He has been fighting the real battles of this country nobly and well. He has been where he could see, and did see snd consider at least forty vital bearings, where even the best informed private citizen could see but one in the Cuban situation, and the country will give him dae credit for it in due time. In history-making times like these a tratbful record of passing events be comes an imperative need. The daily newspaper is ephemeral and not easily preserved for reference. The American Monthly Review of Beviews has all the raise of the newspaper, besides distinct ive merits of its own. As an epitome of current history it is complete, compact, terse, impartial, absolutely reliable, and judiciously edited. As a piece of jour nalistic history-writing what conld be more brilliant or fascinating than the May number of this publication, with its story of the Spanish-American war crisis? Merely as a souvenir of this past eventful month the .Review has a certain unique fitness. Some people have been wondering for quite a while how it was possible for Governor Holcomb to see it in the line of his duty as chief executive to call upon Oil Inspector Edaueien to turn back into the state treasury the amount he has received for railroad fare, when he himself has been using railroad mileage that cost him nothing in the getting. But it seems .that he eases his own conscience by the thought that the governor's salary does not include mil eage and expenses. It reminds of Dr. Franklin's general principle kid down after he changed his practice from an eater of fruit and vegetables, to include that of flesh also. His hankering for meat had doubtless whet his power of logical reasoning, because when he saw that big fish eat up little ones, imme diately came the suggestion that this was nature's way and therefore seemed right The principle hit npon came after coal reflection, and is worded after tins fashion: "How convenient it is far man to be a reasoning creature, for he can either find or make a reason for anything he wishes to da" IT IS SAID THAT Two Spanish Jorpedo boats and a large armed ship have been sighted cruising at the entrance of tbe English channel. Spanish warships at Cape Verde Thursday were unable to get naif the amount of coal which they required for their bunkers.

The -rainy season in Cuba sets in dar ing the Utter part of May; and lasts four months. Recent dispatches say that there are indications that it will commence earlier than usual this year. There was talk in Washington City two months ago that if war, was to be declared against Spain that it ought to be postponed until fall, because this country coald not dare to send an army to Cuba during the rainy season. But in the mad rash of the past few weeks excitement only, and not reason, has held sway, and no thought of danger has been allowed to have a moment's consideration. Bat the time for sober second thought has come, or will come soon, and it will be seen that it would be madness and folly to send an army to Cuba at the very beginning of the season of the rains and yellow fever. Evenv General Weyler was always compelled to sub- nend military operations during this season of the year. Perhaps the authorities at Washing ton know what is to be done with the soldiers now being rushed into the camps of all the states. Perhaps there are plana of which the public knows nothing, and for such knowledge the people can wait But out hero in the country it looks as if the first and only very important duty of the war depart ment w to meet and defeat the Spanish fleet on the ocean. When that is done Cuba will be at our mercy, and until that is done any other movement will be of very little account Cadiz (O.) Re publican. We doubt not that the events of his tory will fully sustain the course of President McKinley in this war (if as yet it may be called that) just as the can did judgment of intelligent patriots has approved the course of Abraham Lin coln in 1861-5. If it shall possibly hap pen that we succeed in blockading Cu ban ports and that thereby Cubans shall gain and maintain their independence; if, as it now seems altogether probable, we, are entitled to some considerable consideration by reason of victories in the Philippines, and can be able to ex act even-lianded justice from the ruling dynasty of Spain, for the mouoy expense we have been at, we shall have accom plished very much by our neighborly policy of forbearance so long as there was any reasonable donbt about the re sponsibility of blowing np the Maine, and, after that, delay on our part until we were amply and unqualifiedly ready to administer a "state of war" that all such rulers as have been cursing Spain during most of the time of her blood thirsty career will not fail to take note of and profit by. If, added to these, there shall follow, soon or later, a blood less revolution in Spain itself, wliat then shall be alleged the matter with the way Providence is guiding our Ship of State?

Commodore Dewey, according ton dispatch from Madrid gave Captain General Augusti 24 hours to comply with an ultimatum which demanded all warlike stores and the entire stock of coal in charge of the government officials. Tbe ultimatum smarted that no money levy would be made upon Manila. The dispatch says it is believed in Madrid that the government has already cabled Captain General Augusti author wy so comply wan tne demand, no other course being open.

I am new able to give the first consecu tive account of the greatest naval battle nmoe the ironclad was invented, the greatest naval fight and the most over whelming naval victory in the annals of the United States. The sailing of the American fleet from Hong Kong April 27 was promptly cabled to Manila and in spite of the authorities it was soon known through' out the island.

It is believed they did not have to Ire a gan snd it hi said that the location of the stints was known to them and that Admiral Dewey daringly resolved to ran the chances of being misinformed. When day broke the tens of thous ands watching on all sides of the vast and beautiful harbor saw the enemy in line of battle aboat 10 miles oat, dir ectly in front of Manila. The sun was. hardly dear of the horiaon before the American fleet began to steam slowly and straight in toward the city. On came the American fleet nntil it was within aboat three aulas of Manila; Two Spanish guns on the battery spoke, but the shells fell short. Then front the Spanish fleet steaming slowly np from Cavite came several shots. The American fleet turned. The two daelliata were face to face. BWtUle lteglns. At about ft 35 a real duel began. The Spanish fleet lay steady, flanked by the batteries on the spnth. About 7 30 there was a lull in the terrific uproar, tho wind blew away the haze and smoke and one of tho American gun boats was seen making off toward the stern part of the bay, clearly disabled. The Americans again closed in and the uproar began with increased fury. When the ships were again seen the Christina was wrapped in flames. On her decks sailors, Spaniards and na tives, were rushing frantically about. The Isle de Cuba came near and part "of the Christina's crew, perhaps all there were still alive, and the Spanish Ad miral went aboard her, but hardly were they aboard when she, too burst into flames. Confusion now reigned thionghoat the Spanish fleet. On every vessel the decks were slippery with blood and the nir was filled with shrieks and groans of Spaniards. The sailors rushed about in a frenzy .of rage rather than terror. The Americans, seemingly calm and cool and still in good order, pressed their advantage, in fact they pushed on too closely, for they, too, now began to' lose, as fire from the Cavite batteries became effective. Aastrfa Blew Up. At this juncture the Don Juan de Austria became the center of interest. A bot km a vessel set off one of her magoalnes and the vessel was blown np. The remainder of the Spanish fleet now turned out and filed down the long, norrow inlet behind Cavite. Sev eral of the gunboats were run ashore, others fled np a small - creak and were grounded there. The guns of Cavite kept on thundering and the Americans, pressing their advantage no further, drew off. ThiB second engagement was short The last Spanish ship was soon grounded or sank. The American guns were trained on Cavite and one ship after another steamed along, pouring in a deadly fire. At J 1 -J80 the batteries ceased to an swer and the American fleet, with ringing cheers from exhausted but triumphant crews, steamed jubilantly back to its transport ships. At the present writing the bombard ment of Manila is in all probability in progress or completed, but whatever may happen, the fame of Dewey and his officers and his crews is seense. NO TALK OF INTERVENTION. Barepeaa Natleea Me Iaellee te la. terfere te Step War. WABHjxdrox, May 3. It is a curious fact that the nation most interested of all the great powers in the combat that took place at Manila yesterday should be among the last officially to know of the result. Up to the close of office hours yesterday absolutely the only in formation that our government hah re ceived of the brilliant victory of Com modore Dewey and the winning of the battle of Manila on May day came to the government through the medium of the press dispatches. If the report is true that Commodore Dewey has begun a bombardment and blockade, of the city of Manila it is unlikely that be can spare a Teasel from his fleet to carry the news to Hong Kong, the nearest cable station, so it is not known when official advices will come. There was some expectation that through the sur render of the city, the commodore might acquire control of the cable, but even then there might be practical diffi culties in communicating through it. The officers of Commodore Dewey's fleet includes at least one lieutenant who is a practical electrician and tele grapher, but it is not known positively that he is able to work a cable success fully. Second, a fear ia entertained that before retiring from the city the Spanish troops will smash the delicate and complicated electrical apparatus for tne receptxm and dispatch of messages and it ia very uncertain whether there ia enough technical skill in the Amur ican fleet to repair such damage. The mere cutting of the cable aa reported by the Spaniards is not regarded aa par ticularly serious, since being hemmed in port by the American blockading fleet, the Spaniards would not be able to make tbe cut far off shore, so that the cable conld be easily grappled snd repaired. VStum mi the IrtaaS. As to the future of the island, it is likely that the government will retain possession of at least one good port, sueh ss Manila for a coaling station and base of supplies during the remainder of the war. There wss understood to be s consid erable force in the Philisnines and a large number of natives an said to bs attachedtothe Spanish forces. With thk material on on hand and the in surgents on the other, the later stimu Isted by the overthrew of the Spaniards at Manila it is probable that civil war may rage on the it lands for some time outside ef Manila proper. It ia believed the ofncmls havs not decided what to do wkh the islands at the end of the war but in their pnsrosrton the United States will enjoys powerful weapon in enforcing the terms of peace witk Basin supposing Porto Bioo shall next be seised, it would seem that Spain will have little to eMounfe her in further rssmtsnes, particularly ss the fall of Porto Skx would mean the loss to her of her insnclad fleet should it the Atlantis. are right; tiieji rassmvof Dewey's victory fc that a jaay impassion has been made on the smmgess power, which cannot longer oid to blind thentselvssM thTSct ssit, man to man' the American navy manual to any in the worM. There "was exhibition such as was Taper iagly predicted in the Earopean pram of weakness in the American fleet, oansed by the fact that it was of hetro geneone composition. It is safe to say that after the battle at' Manila the Xaropean powers will conclude that the American Has always floats' over an merinsn erew regardless of. the nativ ity or racial descent of the men who fight the tans. The impression nro daced is likely to deter the European powers from hasty intervention and the present indications are that we shall bo left to settle our affair with Spain at oar own pleasure, always providing we do not get involved in the eastern ques tion through obtaining possession of the Philippines. It is entirely impossible that Commo dore Dewey may secure his promotion to the rank of admiral throagh the splendid exhibition of his pluck, dis cretion and aailor qualities he made in the engagement. The naval law, how ever, does not permit oj; promotion ex cept by seniority so it probably would be reqnisitetor congress to pass a spec ial resolution, anch as was done in the case of Commodore Melville, to aflord him his well earned promotion. The war department is bending all ita energies to mustering volunteers and the recruiting of the regular army to ita full war strength of 01,000 men. These matters are well under way and the oflfriflfo feel confident that within a reasonable time both tbe volunteers and the regular armies will be ready f for practical military duty. Secretary' Alger and General Miles had a long conference with the president yester day afternoon, presumably in regard, to appointments in the volunteer service.

The Vienna correi pondent of the Times says: "In well informed circles it is positively denied that the powers will intervene at the present juncture nor has any agree ment been arrived at for mediation at any future time.

London, May 3. Little additional news hag arrived from Manila, but the cardinal fact is that Commodore Dewey is now in possession of Manila bay and will certainly take possession of Cor regidor island, even if he finds diffi culty in effectually capturing Manila itself, owing to the absence of a neces sary land force. Having thus secured a naval base, he will have no difficulty in securing supplies of coal. I Prostrated. Rome, May S.

PA83, SEVERAL WAR MEASURES. NM Kwe Xkaa Tm Mlaatos Katra ay Osaale Var KarerguMy Bill. Washdkitox, May 8. Several war measures were passed by the senate Monday and notwithstanding their im portance, not one of them elicited the slightest debate. Probably the most important measure waa the emergency war deficiency bill, carrying $35,7), Mfr. Not more than 10 minutes were consumed in naming it, that time being consumed in reading the measure. Mr. Hawley, chairman of the military af fairs committee, secured the passage of a bill providing for the enlistment of a volunteer brigade of engineers and of 10.000 men in the south, who are im mune to yellow fever, these enlistments to be in addition to those provided for in the president's call for 185,000 vol enteers. The men will enlist "for the war." The other measures passed were one suspending for the duration of the war the restrictions placed by existing laws upon the -quartermaster's department of the army in order that supplies may be purchased without the present for malities, and the other provides that owners of mining claims shall not for feit them for not performing assessment work upon them provided they enlist for the war. The war revenue measure passed by the house of representatives last Friday was received by the senate and referred to the finance committee for consideration. At the opening of the senate's session the chaplain offered devout thanks for the glorious victory won by Commodore Dewey's Asiatic squadron. KJgaU ef Americans Ia Haytk Port au Prince, May 3.

Its effect he said would be most beneficial to our people and de pressing and demoralizing on the enemy. The prestige of our nation in the eastern hemisphere would be of great value to us besides showing to the Spaniards the zeal and courage with which our sailors went into battle.
