SOME INSIDE FACTS
TRUTH ABOUT THE SITUATION
IN SPAIN
Revolution Threatens on Every Hand
The Young King Threatened.
People Starving

LONDON, June 2S.-The Madrid corre-
spondent of the Daily Telegraph says:
Spain is in state Of ferment. Of transit
ton without parallel during the present
century. Troubles of the, gravest kind are
brewing all over the provinces. Every po-
litical and social institution is threatened
in turn, and the least nervous among the
far-sighted politicians apprehend a COM
plete debace.
But the failure of the national defense u
not alone accountable for this. Incredible
as it may seem, the majority of the Span
iards take absolutely no interest in the war
and even display willingness to forget the
past and to endeayor to rub along without
colonies.
The statesmen responsible for the loss of
the colonies are utterly reckless, and the
Indifference to the peoples ruin manifested
by the governing and upper middle classes
is probably unparalleled in history. Hunger
and misery are making themselves felt
throughout the country. There will soon be
35O,0O0 unemployed in Catalonia, and every
where else there are similar signs OF dis
tress, going from. bad to worse, day,by day.
The government is painfully conscious,
and is now taking energetic measures, but
all of these are of coerclve character.
Troops which might have successfully de-
Tended the Philippines are being massed at
all the centers where starvation protests are
likely to assume an aggressive form, while
money is being wasted on warships that
will never fire shot.
The press expects to be gagged, but II
unanimously declares that no amount Of
coercion and no degree of dictatorial des-
potism will hinder the country from rising
and manifesting its will. What is far more
serious is the unfortunate circumstance
that the dynasty shares in the unpopular.
ity of the government.
The people argue that repression Is being
employed solely in favor of the monarchy,
which has remained absolutely passive dur
ing the terrible national crisis. On my
way to witness the confirmation Of the
young monarch I heard expression given
| to anti-dynasty sentiments of the most un-
compromising character, which bode no
good to the boy king. In all other classes
the same lack of sympathy is unmistak-
| ably manifest.
"If Spains colonies are not worth fight
| ing for" said one nobleman, "Spain's dy.
nasty is still less SO. flour soldiers were
not sent to fight the Yankees, we shall take
care that they are not called upon to shoot
down Spanlards for the sake Of an AUS
trian."

DR.. Thomas Dixon's Sermon
NEW YORK, June 27.-The Rev. Thomas
Dixon, Jr.. preached last night to the con-
gregation of the Peoples Church on Mes
sages From the Doomed City of Santiago"
| andlhis text was "Wha tsoever ma m soweth
| that shall he also reap"
THE quaint old city Of Santiago" he said,
NOW the center of a terrible drama, was
once the capital of Cuba, and the islands
history under Spain began there. After the
execution of the Americans, bayonets were
thrust into their mouths and cavalry
| charged over the dead bodies. Santiago then
sowed the wind and today IS reaping the
| wh.rlwind of fire. sword and death.
''If this mighty nation had done its duty
at that time, 1t would have raised an army
| Of 500 900 men, hurried It into Spain and up to
| the gates of Madrid; but The wish Of the
people, reused to vengeance by" the fate Of
| the Americans on The Virginius, was held In
check, though God piled wrath upon wrat tn
| and today the coasts of Cuba are circled
with fire and death. Hamilton Fish was
Secretary of State and 1t is a singular CO.
incidence that his grandson should be
among the first to fall in battle now. After
all, the children must reap what the faith
ers sow, whether 1t be veal or woe.
The mills Of the gods grind slowly, but
they grind exec edng small"
Mr.. Dixon called attention to the carrying
out of the war program, how resls;lessiy,
though slowly, the Spaniards were driven
back their fleets sunk, their commerce
driven from the seas, and how sneers and
criticism of our navy, particularly Of the
Texas and vesuvius, had been silenced. The
names Bagley, Hobson, Roosevelt and Lee,
when mentioned, were greeted with great
applause
