LONDON , July 11 ( New York World Cn
blc-gram Special Telegram ) While th
comments of the en tire Kngllsh press ha\i
boon blllcily sallrlcal cancel n 1 ng the plat
form ami the nomination at Chicago Iher
has been a singular absence so far of an ;
serious alarm as to the consequences , e\ei
to foreign Investors This doubtless Is be
cause of \inl\ersally express-oil belle
that camililatc ami platform xxlll be repuill
ateil by an enormous majority next fall
Mr. ChauiiLcy Pepc\\ has told the readers o
xarlous ncsw papers that although hu look
for a complete union between the populist
and the democrats , "the free Mixer part ;
\\lll recelxe such a crushing and oxcrxxholm
Ing defeat that the question xxlll dlbappea
for all time out of American politics Aftc
the coming election no politician will dare
merely for his own interests , to Dlly him
self with so hopelcbb a cause. So mlscrahl
uncertainty will be at an end. Consequent !
there xxlll be a rcxlxal of trade and pros
pcrlty. The democratic party , as at prese'n
constituted , xxlll eomc to an e nd , and
ncxv and saner party , though probablj xxll
the same name , xxill urls-e In Its place. "
The Statist , the leading financial nexxspa
per of London , declares toda > "It Is th
south xxlilch threatens once more to shir
wreck the democratic part } . It was Its al
llanco with the south which broke up th
part } at the time of the cixll war , and prac
tlcallj excluded It from olllcc for the bette
part of i genetatlon It was southein In
fluence again which led the p\rty wiong
couple of } ears ago and prexented I'rcblden
Cle\eland from carrying out a pollcj r
cutiency contraction and reduction ot th
tariff , and now the south and west bctwec
them arc dragging the party Into H cmienc
pollc } which seems to an Impartial forelg
obserxcr as absolutely suicidal. "
Of course. It Is always labh to predlc
what will be the result of an elpctlo
months before It takes place. Here at lioin
the best electioneering agent was surprise
by last year's election. Nobody c-xpecle
such an immciibo unionist majority , and th
local wirepullers were actually surprisei
What chance Is there that we , who are thoi :
sands of miles av ay , can form any Jude
ment worth listening to of the probable re
suit ot the coming elections In the Unite
States ?
Mr. Dcpew also says : "The real dlxibio
is still not so much between the xxest an
the east as between the north and th
south. The most powerful bectlon of th
fiee sllxcr faction is to be found In th
old confederate states These are still , I
the rural districts , fifty jears behind tli
rest of the country In education , in Idcai
In development. The small farmers Imv
lost money on their crops and haxe bee
obliged to borrow of the banks and mortgag
their farms to keep themselves afloat. The
bcllcxe that the bankers and the capita
Ists of the cities are becoming rich out e
tholr misfortunes and thus they are wl
ling to do an } thing against them "
SMALLGY PAINTS IT VIVIDLY.
The Times alone among the London new :
papers has had an } thing from Its sped :
correspondent xxhich glxcs cxcn an idc
of the public feeling in the United State
the other newspapers contenting then
selxes almost entirely with the routine prci
reports of the conxentlon. Mr Smalley lit
gl\en a lurid account of the disorder In tli
convention and the rule or ruin policy <
the majority. "Tliclr temper , " lie say
"was fierce , sullen , Irreconcilable an
iccUess ot consequences Their ange
against the cast and all that the cast rcj
rcbents Is unappeasable" And agalr
"neither Senator Hill , Mr. Whitney nor an ;
body else foresaw that socialism was I
figure In the platform s4do by side wit
slher. Now It Is been that the contei
Is hopeless on all paints and that the den
ocratle party has ceased to exist " II
thinks Mr. Ilryan the strongest and mo ;
dangerous man whom this conxentlon coul
haxe nominated , "because of his unusu :
gift of oratory , \xhkh doubtless will t
made known in an unexampled campalg
led by himself as candidate. "All eve
the country , " Mr. Smalley continues , "M

xxest , to which Nebraska belongs. He ill

It need not bo supposed that ho will wit
nor that this country Is ready , as the den
ocratle party has shown Itself ready , t
abandon Its principles or renounce Ita pai
or inarch to a political or financial or socl :

There Is a remarkable absence , how eve ;
In all the London newspapers of any edl
torial expression hobtllo to the Unite-
States All dUciiss the sllxerltes as on ]

They look to partly cheap money to raU

Mr. Smalley cables full extracts of Mi

NtW YOHK. July 11 T. Estrada Palma ,
head of the rcxolutloimry party In America ,
has recelxed a letter from Hebel Gencial
Antonio Maceo The letter Is dated
Camague } , Puerto Principe , June 20 , and It
sas'
"This letter Is xxrltten xxlth the object ol
taking a glance nt all the events xxhlch haxe
dex eloped In this country since the begin
ning of the x\ar. Simultaneously with the
uprising Spain sent to the. colony one of hot
best generals , proxlded With all sorts of
resources to quiet the < lebclllon , but In
spite of the strenuous efforts of the Justlj
famed Martinez CampoH the uprising could
not be biippresbed.
The Spanish gcneial , trusting more In the
help of the dlsciedlted ! political parties ol
the island than In the strength ot his army
took little care to measure the proportion
of the rexolutlon. On Julj 14 , 1S03 , Campoc
firbt attempted to go Into the Interloi and
first appeared In Dajomo , but Antonio Macec
axxalted him , and the Spanish had hard
work to reach the historic city of Pcrajo
haxlng been badly beaten.
Trora this point the 'resolution look a
path that obtained for It aii uninterrupted
series of triumphs. The Cuban army could
not be held an } longer In the east Cam
aju > a and Las Villas and naturally com
menced Its march to the westein regions
Wo undertook that great enterprise xlib -
out forming Illusions about our strength
x\c knew xxe had but fe\v , but xvcic com
pcled ) to moxe on , feeling that in the enc
all this would be odxanlageous , for us Oui
army did not mind anj obstructions tin
Spanish placed In their path and continued
on their way till they triumphantly pluntcc
their flag in the boundaries of the xsesteri
proxinccs. At the sound of oiu horses
hoofs in that district the p. > eminent o :
the colony tiemblecl'butIt 'SVAs not for th ;
defeat or death of. Its scSHfcrS , < whTcKrSpaii
can replace , nor for the destruction of tin
public wealth , for that can be raised and
Increased again with labor. It trembled
because it xxns losing forexer the false prcs
tlgo of Its power.
"At prcbcnt nothing is left to UK
Spaniards In Cuba , not oxen the giouiu
where they stand. Their prestige Is lost
exen in Haxrna , in that xortexxhlch fron
the time of Pinto and Xarlsco Lopez unti
that of Carlos Manuel do Cespedccs , ha !
been the sepulcher ot many attemptb madi
by the Cubans to obtain their most precloui
rights.
"Our soldiers enjoy pplendld health. Thch
eaitlrldgeb are full of ammunition. We lm\ <
recelxed latclj three xaluable expedition1
and as the Spanish generals retire to Spall
ours stand here. Noxv xxhat Is left to do'
To triumph. To obtain this the fonnda
tlon Is laid In all the extent embraced bj
the territory of the Island. "

Terrible Catastrophe Overtakes the Merry Trainload of Excur
sionists as One of the Results of a Terrible
Blunder on the Part of
Someone ,
Death noxer fell heaxler on happy mortals
than } cstcrday oxenlng , when an appalling
catastrophe tinned n merry excursion Into a
xxnlllng cortege. Homeward bound from n
day spent In the pursuit of ple-nsuro , amid
slxan groxes nnd rural delights , 1,500
dwellers of Omaha and Council lIHifts were
hurled Into a xoitcx of destruction Not
a second separated the dash fiom the galct }
ot a successful picnic Into the awful honor
of a terrible railway collision Meny songs
and Joyous laughter were oxetwhelmed In
the erash of timber * , the crush ot human
bodies , the shrieks of the mangled nnd the
gtoans of the dxlng.
And for hours and hours the fi lends nnd
relatlxos of those who had gone on that
Ill-fated excursion wilted for news fiom the
loxed ones whose llxcs xxcre In Jeopird >
Valnl } they besieged the ofllccs of the news
papers , the railway olliccs , the depot , the
telegraph ofllces , ex cry axcnuo from which
a bit of Information could bo gleaned It
was Impossible for hours to learn ex en the
faintest details of the extent of the dis
aster. For some reason , known only to
themsclxes , the officials of the Northwestern
reid declined to gl\e out nn } Infoiinntlon.
Nor would the cotnpiny allow repoiteis to
accompany the relief train , sent early In
the cxenlng Western Union operators dis
patched to facilitate the handling of ncxxs
were also refused transportation.
11 } midnight the Union Pacific compaii }
had receixed a partial list of the niiiirb of
the dead and Injured , and these x\eie > glxen
out free ! } but the announcement of a few
being Killed or hurt enl } added to the
intcnsit } ot the an\lctj. It xxas but a ques
tion of x\ailing until the retuin of the ttaln.
and this x\as delacd foi man } houia Mote
agonizing than the scenes at the xvreck ,

No woid came. No tialn came. Hour nftct

and theic nature gaxc xxay , and fainting
followed xxlth slight icllef. Tears floxxcd
and sobs broke the silence , but these could
not break the spell that hung between the
people and the news the } sought.
