Ell SENIOR MONTERO RIOS

Un periodista madrilefo, ell se6or

hecho hablar al expresidente del Sc
nado.
En- esta epoca de interciescs tiene 10
que. dice ell senior Montero Rios cierta
importancia, pues en- 10 que ell senor
Trompeta escribe resulta fotografado
Ell ilustre canonista.
Empieza diciendo ell senior Montero
que la situacion presentc es diffcil y
grave.
Anade que son precisas soluciones
concretas y claras, y enseguida afronta
de lleno ell problema colonial dicien-
do:
ella llegado ell momento de transfor-
mar nuestro regimen colonial. ST no 10

Espana esta empenada en- Ell Oriente y

No creo yo que la autonomfa de Cuba
peri 1dique los intereses de la Metro
poll. Antes por ell contrario los favore-
ce grandemente, puesto que para todo
ell mundo los vfnculos entire Espana y
Cuba, afrmados por la comunidad de
orfgen, de tradiciones de intereses
(bien entendidos), y favorecidos por Ia
comunidad del idioma, son indiscuti-
bles.
Manteniendo, pues, la soberanfa de
Espana en- Cuba; la justicia y nuestra
convenience reclaman que Sc conceda
Cuba 10 que sus necesidades y desa-
rrollo de vida demandan.
En- ell problema de Cuba hay que te-
ner en- cuenta sus relaciones con ell Es-
tado espaflol y con la sociedad espa
nola.
En- ell orden fnanciero, al Estado es-'
pallol lie convene mucho menos que
la sociedad espafola, las actuales rela-
clones polfticas que la Metropoli viene
teniendo con la Grande Antilla; pero
la sociedad espanola 8 sea a la indus

ne la conservation de la intimidad de

la soberanfa de la Metropoli perfecta-
mente compatible con las aspiraciones

mamente tener ell pueblo cubano.
En- ell orden polftico e international,
es de grande importancia para Espana
que en- ell golfo de Mexico continue 10

Metropoli en- sus relaciones internacio-

SOUTH DAKOTA HAPPENINGS IN
CONDENSED FORM.
Horse Raisers Charge State Neter-
marian with "Ruthless Slaughter"
of Animals and Will Attempt to
Recover Damages from the state.
Will Try to Get Damages,

State Veterinarian Elliott has made sew
eral visits to the Cheyenne Agency this
summer and on each Of his trips has or
dered horses in the Rousseau herd TO be
killed, pronouncinC them to be afflicted
with CHAMBERS. He has killed about $50
out of the herd, and on his last inspection
declared that.the whole herd OF about 800
more was SO badly tainted with the dis
ease that they would probably have to be
all killed. Rousseau was not willing to
allow such wholesale slaughter without
further evidence, and employed j. NJ.
Treacy. veterinarian from Sturgis, to
come out to his ranch and examine the
herd. He also examined other herds while
in that part of the country, and reports
that in over 1000 head examined by him
he found only two cases in which there
were symptoms of glanders. He charac-
terizes the killing done by the state veter-
marian as ruthless Slaughter On his
report Rousseau and others who had their
horses killed by the state veterinarian will
attempt TO recover from the state for their
alleged damages

BRADsTREET'S REVIEW.
Values of Leading Staples Have
Advanced.


Bradstreet's Weekly Review says: The
general trade situation continues to i'm
prove, and aside from the unnecessarily
prolonged strike OF the soft coal miners,
there is little in sight to cloud the outlook.
The feature of the week is the advance in
the prices OF almost all leading staples, be-
ginning with an upward movement all
along the line in iron and steel.
Lead and soft coal are higher, as is
wheat, notwithstanding one or two reac-
tions. The statistics position of wheat is
the strongest known since the United
States became considerable exporter,
and its price, as well as that for bread, is
likely 10 exceed that of the present weeks
advances. Following that for wheat,
prices are higher for wheat -four, corn,
oats, lard, potatoes, butter, eggs, beans,
cheese, leaf tobacco, wool and live stock.
for leather, hides, lumber and
linseed oil are also reported.

are now being landed at 81. Michaels.
None of the regular lines of steamers. il is

who are not provided with sufficient
amount OF provisions and money 70 main
tain themselves for a reasonable time
without danger Of suffering. Some OF the
tramp line steamers, however. have agreed
to ship anyone rho can pay for his passage
without regard to the future. The result is
said to be that considerable crowd is

OF the wood reservation is two miles wide
