SPANlARDS ARE SORRY
Think They Could Fave Held out
In Cuba.
Didn't Know About Condition Of American
Army-Causes stiff NeCked Attitude Of
Peace Commissioners.

Washington, October II. - In
formation has reached the WarDe-
partment that high officer of the
Spanish army, very recently made
the statement that had the Span
iards been aware of the condition
OF the American Army, its inabili-
ty to withstand the bardships of
campaign, its lack of medical and
other supplies AID general inefici-
ency, as told In the American
papers, the Spauiords would not
have given up, but would have
continued the fighting for a long
time to come, fully believing that
they would have been able to pre-
vent the capture of Cuba by Am
ericsn arms. This statement is
known TO Lave been made to the
American officers now in Cuba
and causes some uneasiness in
official circles, as it may mean that
the Spaniards are not yet ready to
yield the island under the terms
of the protocol.
1t is also asserted that the Mad
rld Government was aware when
1t asked far peace and when the
negotiations were opened that it
was useless to ask that the Cuban
debt be taken into consideration
by the Commission and that it is
only since the reports of the bad
condition OF the United States
Army we're circulated that the
question has been raised.

The BUSINESS SITUATION.

Bradstreot's for this week says that
"tho iron situation while encouraging,
as far 80 present buHinesn 10 concerned,
has not developed sufficiently to allow
of any very pronounced forecasts of
next senson's business.
1.-The tone Of cotton manufacturing

in the wooden goods trade, and bust

changed Eastern quotations.
Cereal exports are naturally enough
smaller than in recent weeks, but are
still heavily In excess OF preceding
years. Wheat shipments for the week
aggregate 8. 100, 470 bushels, nH against
40, 306, 600 bushels last week, but cvm-
parad with 2,156 600 bushels 10 this
week year ago. Corn exports show
very slight falling off, aggregating for
the week 3, 902, 52l bushels, against

H. G. Dun & ca. "a Review RayB:
"Very little of tho nav business seen,
in proportion to the aggregate, has
been caused by the war. Not any, dis

collapse of the wheat speculation caused

quarters of the amount exhibits in

pie.
1.-THE industries, at the season when
stoppagea are to be expected. maintain
production surprisingly. There are
very few interruptions on account of
labor, and WACO scales for the coming

Uncle Sam, Particular.

The two postal cars that were built
in the Topeka shops were Inspected
just before they were completed by a
government inspector who pronounced
them up to the requirements in all but
one particular. That fault was that on
the sides were the words, ~. s. Rail-
way Post Office" and the new stand
ard adopted by the government is
Omitted States Railway Post Office. "
Heretofore all cars have been mark
ed with the abbreviation "U. s." 1t
has been decided by the government
to do away with the abbreviation and
the words had to be spelled out in full.
The change was made and cars were
accepted. The new wording has but
lately been adopted by the government
and will be used hereafter.
