The report from Washington that
the Hawaiian annexation project is
gaining strength can easily be be-
lieved. William IFS demonstrations
in China and Hayti will make votes
for annexation. If the United States
declines Hawaii's overtures the future
of the islands will be very uncertain.
Germany just now has the "colouiz.
ing" fever in an exceedingly aggra.
waited form. Within twelve months
after the defeat of annexation, if it
should be defeated, the Kaisers flag
might be run up in Honolulu, and
then the United States would have
another Franco. Mexican problem on
its hands, with a much more obsti.
nate man to deal with than Napoleon

The Cuban Revocation of TIL. Con-
centrafion Order

Granting of freedom to the reconcen-
trados,'' said Senor Quesada. Of the Gu
ban Junta, today. lis simply another
scheme Of Spain to deceive the American
people
''The plan is farce Of the same kind
as the elections. which meant nothing eX-
cept to make il appear that Spain was
granting something TO the Cuban peo-
pie. BY this edict too, issued March 30,
the claim that the order OF Weyler Great
ing the concentration zone had been pre-
Viously abrogated is shown in its true
hight.
THE real motive Of this latest move
Is 10 counteract the impression given to
the American people by Senator Proctor
and other senators. who depicted the ter
rible conditions among the reconcentro-
dos as they had seen them in person.
Having previously pacihed American
feeling by recalling Weyler Spain now
seeks TO again establish regard for its
intention TO put stop 10 conditions that
ish rule. The two things are Of the same
piece and equally farcicaL
Freedom for the reconcentrados and
their protection by Spanish troops mean
that the starving Cuhans in the towns

about II. The matter can De viewed IN

The directors OF the Illinois Manufactur.

to President MCKINLEY:
Without In any way expressing an opinion upon
the question of acquisition Of Spanish territory by
this country, II 10 the sense OF this association that
the President Of tho United States be. and he 10
hereby, respectfully requested to instruct those
having in charge for this country the conclusion Of
such treaty Of peace, to exact that the ports Of all
Spanish territory In the Pacific Ocean be opened
upon the most liberal terms to all products OF
American industry
The way to open Spanish ports in the Pa
cihc is to take them and keep them. Mako
them United States ports. Then their i'm
ports and exports will be greatly increased
and the United States will be, in perpetual
fact and not merely by dissoluble and I'M
certain treaties. and regardless Of the ri
valries of other nations, the most favored
nation and customer in those ports. Trade,
even on liberal terms, with a Spanish port
is a poor thing compared to trade with an
American port.
The United States need not merely &C.
cess to the Spanish ports in the Pacific and
the China seas, but full possession of them.
Then, in the great commercial battle for
the East, this country will have WOE n
strong position.

pitious for Great Britain and the United

sarlly mean wRrl We do not draw such an
inference. Russia Is not ready for war In
the Far East, nor will she be until the COM
pletion of the Trans Siberian Railway shall
enable her to pour her leglons at will into

soon or late, and the sooner the better,
we shall have to signify our determination
not to permit our treaty rights to be

successive appropriations of spheres OF In.

immensely increased IL we shall have
proved our purpose to be reckoned with

A Victorious Army Returning.

Some Of our troops who waged heroic and
auccessful battle at Santiago are already
on their way to the North, and the re.
mainder, not actually infected with yellow
fever, will soon follow. They are well
worthy of the rest and recupe ration of
camps in our northern latitudes their
health will be promoted by the transfer,
and many lives among them will be saved
because Of it.
While we regret that suffering and
debilitation have come to our army in
Cuba, we must not forget, however, that
they return after n campaign which in the
completeness of It's victory In "A period re-
markable for its brevlty will always be
memorable in military history. The mis-
takes and the shortcomings of which we
are hearing so much now may all have oc-
Cured, for similar ground for criticism can
be found in almost every large operation
of war, but the main end for which the
army strove was accomplished completely
and gloriously and with proportionate
losses not unusually great.
The city of Santiago and its province are
now under American control, the Spanish
army has surrendered and is awaitlnRtrans-
%portation to Spain, CERvERA's fleet Is
destroyed. fresh American troops are ar
irving at Santiago, and the old troops are
to be- brought rapidly to more healthful
camps at home. And peace is at hand!

What Shall We Call Them2

With the Infanta Maria Teresa so nearly
afloat that at any time we may hear of her
joining the squadron at Guantanamo, the
question Of what we shall call her cannot
be considered as premature.
As an armored cruiser, she would, under
the rules, take the name of a city, like the
New York and the Brooklyn. If so, she
might well be called the Santiago, in honor
of the battle that won her for our navy.
But Santiago, although under our military
government, Is not a city of the United
States, SO that San Juan, which very soon
is to be such a city, or Manila, might be
the more appropriate name, while also con-
forming to the law.
But the Maria Teresa really comes close
in type to what in our navy are called
second.class battleships. Her displacement
of 1000 tons brings her nearer to our old
Maine, 6.6S2, and to the Texas, 6,315,
than to the Brooklyn, 9,27l, or the New
York, 5000. Her side armor, IL inches, is
exactly the same as that Of our Maine and
Texas, whereas the New York's Is only four
inches and the Brooklyn's only three. The
11-inch guns of the Maria Teresa also com
pare more closely with the lO-inch of the
Maine N the l2-lnch of the Texas than
with the S.inch, the highest calibre of our
WI armored cruisers. If she were treated,
then, as a hi~gh-speed, second-class battle.
ship, she would be entitled to the name Of
4 State. Hence the suggestion that she
should be called the Maine, in honor of the
immortal victim of Havana harbor, is not
out OF the way, except that before she was
captured our Government had resolved TO
give that name TO one of the three new
battleshlps.
We think the best plan OF all would be
to let her name of Infanta Maria Teresa
stand. and to let that of the Cristobal Co.
Ion. which in calibre of guns and thickness
of plating more resembles our armored
cruisers, also stand, should we succeed In
saving that ship. 1t Is true that we have
no Infantas and Crlstobals or anything of
the sort In our navy, but that very fact will
make these exceptions more telling, and
recall the great naval victory that won
them whenever these names meet the eye.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1898-08-07

1t IL like the exception which makes n OF
our frst-elass battleships the Kearsarge.
The English have always understood the
value Of retaining the namca Of vessels
they have won in combat. They find no
objection to the presence Of foreign names
on their navy list, however great may be
the contrast with the rest, We cut down
their list a little when tho Constitution
destroyed the Guerriere and when the
Peacock captured the Epervier; but there
are plenty Of foreign names left to-day
1mmortalite, Imperieuse, Sans Pareil,
Temeraire, MagIcienne, and 30 on.
Great Britain, too, has a custom OF per.
petuating these foreign names by giving
them to new vessels when the original
ones have disappeared, That, also. we
could follow to advantage. While the
t~horoughness with which we have destroyed
the Spanish vessels at Manila, Santiago
and elsewhere has left us few above water
to be redeemed, at least the names of In.
fanta Maria Teresa and Cristobal Colon
continued In successive generations will
remind American sea fighters of the future
how their fathers fought in 1898.

On reading the notes in the July number on Paul
Morphy's visit to Philadelphia. 1 am reminded OF an
incident in connection with his visit to Richmond,
Va, about the same time, which was related TO me
some years ago by the Rov. Mr.. II, OF that city. l do
not remember ever to have seen it in print. Mr..
Morphy was Mr.. HIS guest while in the city, and on
his arrival was first ushered into the library, and his
attention was ut once attracted by q painting over the
mHntel, which was q tine copy Of u celebrated paint.
ing representing a game OF chess between u young
man and the devil, the stake being the young mans
soul.
The artist had most graphically depicted the point
In the game where 1t was apparently the young mans
move. and he seemed Just to realize the fact that he
had lost the game, the agony of de ipair being shown
in every line u his features and attitude. while the
devil from the opposite side OF the table gluated over
him with tendish delight. The position OF tho game
appeared utterly hopeless for the young man, aud
Mr., II. said he had often set il up and studied IL
with his chess friends, aud all agreed the young
mans game was certainly lost.
Mr.. Morphy walked up to the picture and studied
it for several minutes. when finally, turning 10 Mr..
H.. he said:
II can win the game for the young man"
Mr., H., Was. OF COURSE, astonishOd. aud sAid. " Is 4.
possible"
Mr.. Morphy replied; " Oct out tile men and hoard
and let us look at tit"
The poAitlon was set up, and in a few rapid moves
he demonstrated a complete win for the YOUNG man,
and the devil WAS ohecknlRied,
