il is only through treachery the thing was
possible, and that the motive for it can I've
ascribed To no other than Spanish adyersa-
rles OF the Cuban cause.
1t will not be long before Spain will have
nearly 200 900 troops on the island, well
equipped with everything to prosecute
active warfare. They are commanded by
the ablcst comma nders Spain can muster.
aud at the head of them all is Weyler. ut

ish cruisers patrol the seas in its vicin-
ity. With all that Gen. Weyler declares that
he will be sa tisried if the rebellion is crushed
in two years, although opposed to him are
only so .O0Oor sc, 900 men, without artillery
worth mentioning and without single war
ship. If this declaration means anything. it
is that there is to be a war of extermina
ton.
The United States should not stand by
and allow such contest to be begun. Rec
ignition of Cuban belligcrent rights would
prevent it, for it would call into action
forces that should convince Spain ofthe
hopeicssness of her struggle to keep Cuba in
bondage any longer.

1t is the general belief that the sinking of
the Cuban filibustcring steamer j. W. Haw-
kins was due to treachery. Little doubt
is entertained that the ship was scuttled and
that SPANISH influence and Spanish gold in
stigated a crime as he result OF which ten
lives were lost and nearly 200 put in jeop-
ardy. Ali reports received point to this
cause of the occurrence. There was no leak
when the vessel left Baltimore. and the
pumps were in good working order. The
steamer was barely out of port when the
water poured in torrents into the engine
room and the pumps were found TO DE
clogged. No sane person will believe that
this change in the vessels condition could
have been wrought in twenty-four hours,
saved by the foulest crime of which a hired
traitor could he guilty.
One thing is clearly indicatedby thisevcnt
1t shows the desperate means to which
Spaln will resort 10 crush the Cuban revolu-

the slightest accession of strength to the

hHR. GEORGE W. COLE. representing
III the Short Banking Company of North
East. Pa, is at the Hotel Raleigh.
Mr.. Cole is one of the many young men in
the western part of Pennsylvania who have
achieved business success early in life.
Although but thirty, he has been prominent
in business and political affairs in his
part OF the country for quite number OF
years. He has been proposed for political
honors a number of times, but has steadily
refused to give up a business for a politi-
cal career.
"Of course. all banking concerns have
interests in Washington said Mr.. Cole
last night, but we have especially, as our
house owns quite considerable property
in and around the District. Several
months ago purchased for the head of our
firm. Mr.. Samson Short, large brick

his intention to make it one OF the most ex-
tensive in the United States. Improve

est to us. aud | can see a great many that
have been made since my last trip here"
N1HE meaning OF the word ''busi Ier''
was the subject Of a very animated
discussion last night between Mr.
Coffin, the genial night clerk at Wizards,
and one or the lively commercial men who
make the hotel their headquarters. The
commercial man had just walked up 10
the marble counter and deposited in the
mail box big batch of orders, the third
