! Information received from Camaguey
this morning tells of the success of Gen

spanish troops are afraid to venture be-

General Campos has ordered that every

EDITORIAL ON SILVER

London, Aug. 13.-An editorial of the
Times this morning, commenting on eX-
Secretary Whitney's remarks on the sill
Yer question, expresses the hope that Mr..
Whitney's aspirations for an internation-
Il agreement to rehabilitate silver will
not be fully fulfilled.
Americans previous efforts" says the
Times, "to create an artificial demand
ior silver only stimulated its production.
The same result would follow, however,
on arger scale, should the abortive
project be revived. The Bland and
SHERMAN acts failed to do the good ex-
lpected of them and left a legacy of mis-
Eh!ef which gives promise of long out
Fasting their repeal"
The Times then proceeds with a dis
Aussion of the position of the United
lEt2tcs treasury, and it considers the corn

MORJA'S ATTORNEY TALKs,

Washington, Aug. 13.-Mr. Nathan
Paige, who is Mr.. Mora's attorney here,
when shown the dispatch expressed great
qualification but said he did not believe
the United States government would
agree to the settlement of the claim with
out interest.
'TO do that would" he said, "be to
fatty ignore the instructions Of congress,
which were to collect the principal and in
terest."
Mr. Paige added that he, as Mr.. Mora's
lawyer, would be willing to accept the
$1,500,000 representing the principal on
account, but not as Il final settlement.
The Spanish government, he said, had
agreed when the basis of settlement was
arranged in 1887, that interest should be
charged.
SENIOR DE LONE SAYS LITTLE.
Swampscott Mass, Aug. 13-Senor
Dupuy de LONE, Spanish minister to the
United States, was shown the cablegTam
giving the decision regarding the Mora
claim. Senor de LONE said that while
diplomatic courtesy prevented him from
discussing the matter officially, he could
state that the decision of the cabinet set
ties a question which has been pending
since July II. On June IS, Senor de
LONE stated the Spanish minister of state
laid the Mora claim before the council
and several meetings have been held sub
sequently. 1t was decided to pay the
claim. The queen signed the order in
Council July II, but the matter of de-
r., lis, such as time Of payment, actual
omon,, to be paid, interest, etc, were left
to he decide by the cabinet.
