The Spaniards are not so lacking In
sense as 10 be unaware OF their weak
ness. They have depended upon their
pompous correspondence ana conciln,ory
professions. and upon the great powers
BlancO seems to have given his soul Tor
awhile to autonomy fraud. The
Spaniards thought their suspension OF
military operations would o. an irresis-
tlble stroke. but thev have had no vic
tories to give them standing. They had
no capital with which to be generous.

Th5 Situation in Cuba.

We have it on excellent authority,
and from the insurgent side, that the
Spaniards s1e now carrying on civiliz-
ed warfare in Cuba. Nevertheless,
autonomy has not been accepted, and
the armies of Gomez and Garcia are
still unconquered, and there is no sign
WI atever that Captain-General Blanco
will meet with any more success in the
field than did his two predecessors.
On the other hand, there is no reason
TO believe that The Insurgents can pos
sibly drive the Spaniards off the island
They can hold on and they can prevent
Cuba from again becoming a producer
of Spanish revenue, while Spain is
evide ntly becoming tired. The Spanish
friends of Weyler have broken out in
riots in Havana, which have made war
seem very near to this country. Under
the circumstances, it is not strange
that Americans engaged in the Cuban
insurrection should believe that. Spain
will quis tly drop the island in few
months. But good Geai still depends
on us.-Harper's Weekly

Bogus Tickets Galore.

A Chicago Dispatch says: While
looking up evidence against w. 81.
Blaze, the ticket broker at 2O2 Clark
street, the police have found in one
office bogus passes, mostly editorial.
which apparently represents $50, 200
that has been secured from unsuspect-
ing strangers The discovery has led
to the belief that baud of swind]ers,
in he guise OF ticket brokers, is in ex=
istence in Chicago and reaping q har-
vest by the sale of bogus tickets.
The case which led to the investiRa-
ton, and which may lead to a number
of arrests, was that of John Wallace,
of Jacksonville, Ohio, who was before
the grand jury and had Blaze arrested
on charges of swindling. Wallace
reached Chicago week ago en- route
to Dakota and was directed, so he SAYS,
to Blaze 8 ticket Office. Wallace bought
a pass to his destination paying 50. SO
for it and was told to call at six o'clock
for the pass. Blaze's office was locked
at tn at hour and when Wallace called
the next day he was told the transport
alton had expired and $3.50 was de-
mauded for another pass which was
paid. Wallace says he was given q
piece Of pasteboard marked Editorial
Pass stamped with the supposed seal
of the Chicago, Milwaukee and ST.
Paul road and was directed to General
MANAGER Miller OF that road, who. he
was 10 formed, would endorse the ticket
Mr.. Miller however, took up the
matter and later showed to the police
$50 600 worth of bogus transportation
tickets which had accumulated in the
past two years.

RAILROAD POSSIBILITIES.
What New Lines are Expected to Ac-
cOmplish in Western Texas

There is more and more newspaper
pecula'ion as to railroad probabilitie:
and posi- abilities as the plans and pur.
poses of the Ell Paso & Northeastern
or White Oaks road are being slowly
but surely brought to view.
The extension of the White Oaks to
the New Mexico line at the Canadian
river has made it reasonable GER
tainty that direct connection will be
made at the Kansas line, at Liberal.
with the Rock Island system, thus
giving the Rock Island a straight
81 Oos into Ell Paso at a distance of 535
miles, saving of two mountain
ranges over the Santa Fe route from
Trim dad. The prophesied connection
at Liberal is not denied in the White
Oaks offices. All of this new line is
high cultivation through irrigation,
and rich in wide variety of mi erals,
noticeably fine coal deposits.
At the same time President J. j.
Hagerman has arranged for tt e extern
sion of his road, the Pecos Valley, to
Panhandle, the terminal of the Santa
Fee in the Northern Panhandle of Tex
as, close by the Denver & Gulf 70 d.
cutting through the Panhandle % Fort
the Gulf road both Rock Islands and
Santa Fee connections in Texas in addi-
tiOn to connection with the Santa Fee at
Trinidad. and with the same road and
the Rock Island at other northern
points. Mo-, 18th these new lines as
sured facts-for there is no gainsay Jog
of them now, there is revived talk of
carrying out the long cherished plan
of the Santa Fe to connect Roswell with
Albuquerque, also, to build across New
Mexico from Panhandle to Albuquer-
que; also, of q proba BILE extension from
