ing they took only one ballot, and it

ments for murder hanging over them

District Attorney Martin says he has

vices from the orient bring to hand the full
text of the edict recently issued by Fer
nando Primo de Rivera, governor general

in comparison. Taken as a whole 1t ap-
pears as an official confession of the I'M
truth of the frequent announcements from
the government at Madrid that the Philip

the people pacified.
The edict begins with the revocation of
all passes heretofore issued and the es-
adjustment of military trocha- Property

rebellion, or to tenants partners or any
person interested in property belonging to
the rebels Is declared forfeited to the gov
eminent, and will be seized to satisfy the
needs of the Spanish army.

watchfulness of the authorities.
For the purpose of this order, tn, families
of rebels will consist of their wives, chill
dren, parents, brothers, brothers-in-law
and cousins.

Capt Symons. made in 1886, and to that
OF Capt Elliot. made in 1894
Capt Gaillard says that at the present
rate of consumption of water in the Dis

should be based on a CAPACITY of daily
consumption of at least $4,000 900 gallons
and suggests that any plan adopted should
nave IN view the ready increase of this
amount to 10000 900 gallons Der day With
tnis basis for his estimate for a filtration

mo; do not think he has gone on such
a mission" said Senior Quesada. in charge
of the Cuban headquarters here, today,
when his attention was called to a pub
lished statement that Captain General
Blanco's trip to the eastern part of Cuba
was for the purpose Of comforting with
General Gomez. looking to terms of peace
His purpose in going there, I think, is to
assist in bolstering up. as far as possible,
the Spanish cause" continued Mr.. Quesada
1T has been five days since we have
heard from the operations of the armies in
that section of the island. Gen. Pando the
Spanish commander. was very severely
wounded and may be dead, and the Spanish
army there is in badly demoralized con-
dition, and Blanco's visit, think, is for
the purpose of Strengthening the lines and
giving the troops what encouragement he
can.
Shortly after Blanco was appointed tn
his present position Gen. Gomez addressed
him. as he had Martinez Campos, a letter
urging him for humanity's sake to use
his influence with Spain to stop the blood
shed and bring the war to an end on the
basis OF Independence for Cuba. BY this
means Spain would get the glory of acting
as a mother to her son, and Independence
would be achieved without the interyenfion
OF another nation"

From the Philadelphia Times
Judge McComas is i'm the full vigor of

than ordinary successful senatorial career.
He is a politician of keen perception and
rare sagacity, and combines with the quail
ties of the politician the best features of
craftsmanship. He will not only be able
In debate on the floor of the Senate but
ne VIII be one of the most capable and eff
Client OF the members of the body. He will
be valuable acquisition to the republican
counsels of the Senate and will speedily

self credit by the election of Louis T. Nc

From the New York Tribune.
The election Of Louis z. McComas, now
a judge of the Supreme Court of the Dis
trict OF Columbia, as a United States sena-
tor from Maryland for the six-year term
beginning March 4. 1892 win be hailed by
republicans not only in his own state but
throughout the country, with unqualified
or all the prominent candidates named
for the succession to Mr.. German. Judge
McComas has justly been regarded as the
most distinctly qualified and amply
equipped Tor service in the upper branch
OF Congress. His long and creditable rec
ord in public life has firmly established his
reputation as man of energy ability
probity, cultivation, breadth of Judgment
and firmness of character.
From the Philadelphia Prees.
The interests of Maryland, of the repub-
lican party in the Senate and of the re-
publican party in the country are all served
by the choice of Judge Louis Z. McComas
He represents by descent and family

publican party grew and from which IL re-
