All those who are interested In the fate of the

friend Of the press) have fresh cause for indigna-
ton in every development OF the cowardly, inexpi
cable policy OF Spain. The removal OF OKeliy rom
Aanzaniilo to Santiago de Cuba was opposed to the
expressed wishes of himself and his friends but the
last order for his transfer to Spain Is even
more unaccountabe. What Is the object2 Ii the

New York correspondence OF the PHILADELPHIA
Evening Journal, May 22.l
THE GREAT JOURNALISTIC FEATs.
The one topic OF conversation in newspaper cir
Giles to-day is the fact that the HERALD alone OF all
the New York papers, contained the news Saturday
morning OF the loss Of Captain Halls Arctic expe-
ditlon. II Is true the Times and sun had few OF
the details In their later editions, but these were
furnished them by the HERALD. Such feats as these
are what give the latter paper It's reputation for
enterprise. No matter what or where anything
turns up on the face OF the globe, the HERALD
appears TO have "Our Correspondent" on the spot
at the very moment. One might think that the
paper employed million, more or less, Of sour
Correspondents. But this is the way the thing Is
done:-There Is not vessel leaving New York
which is not supplied with the HERALD. There Is
not Minister, Consul or American government
representative Of any character living upon the
face of the globe who Ia NOT sunDlied free n cOst
with HERALD nles. The managers see to it that
every person in ofhcial station who can be OF any
use to them at any time Is furnished their paper
and given to understand that they will be paid
most handsomely for any intelligence they may
contribute any time to its columns What is the
result The HERALD has an "agent" in almost
every government Official
