There was nothing inherently i'm
probable in the report of the murder
of Maceo by the Spaniards, even be-
fore the intelligence came which
seems to confirm the story. This
barbarity is in line with other Span
ish crimes in the present and preced-
ing uprisings in Cuba. Twenty
three years ago the world was horri
fed at the news of the Staying of Gen.
Candy and one or two companions by
the Modocs while on a peace COM
mission to these savages, but the
latest reports show that Maceo's as
sassination was attended with features
of infamy which were absent in the
case of the American Generals MUIR
der. The entire war in Cuba has
been characterized on the part of the
Spanish by crimes which recall the
acts of Ghenghis Khan. This latest

Practically nothing was expected
of congress last week; in fact, the
national law makers were in session
only two days, and then adjourned
for the holiday recess. Since Secre-
tary Olney threw cold water on the
Cameron resolution for the recogni-
ton of the independence of Cuba, it
is thought that the senate will at least
delay action until after vacation.
The resolution will, however, be re-
ported by the foreign relations COM
mittee today. The unfinished bust
ness in the senate is Senator Petit
CREWS free homestead bill, which he
hopes to push through. Senator Gear
will endeavor to advance his bill for
the settlement of the Souix City and
Pacific railroad debt, but his success
is problematical. 1t is believed that
nothing of Importance will be done
in the house. The congressional
recess will last until after the first of
January.

THE ARMIES OF EUROPE.

The increase of the military force
throughout Europe goes on steadily
1t is understood that the Emperor
William does not think he has SOL
diers enough though he may defer his
request for more until the Reichstag
has got into a more tractable mood
than at present. Yet the German
army has peace strength of 5S4, 900
officers and men. If we reckon the
Gendarmerie and the Republican
Guard in the French army it's nominal
peace strength is about 5000 in ex-
cess of that of Germany. Now comes
the news that the French cabinet will
introduce bill increasing the war
strength of the French army by 1907
900 men, adding a fourth battalion to
each regiment of the line. To spread
100000 men over the entire active
army would call for additions to each
branchof the service. Inasmuch as
dispatches say the addition is to the
war strength only it may be assumed
that there will be an increased length
of service established for the reserves
and that the latter will be more close
ly affiliated than at present with the
line battalions in active service. Such
a scheme presupposes an increase in
the annual contingent of consoripts
and gradual enlargement of the
reserves. The French actually, eff
fective war strength is commonly
figured at $500, 900 men, England,
too, is preparing to enlist more SOL
diers, but the addition to her forces
will be limited to eight battalions of
infantry and Is field batteries
