THE PORTO RICAN CAMPAIGN.
Was Not Undertaken in the Face of
 Peace OvertureS.

Washington, July 2S.-It can be stated on the authority of the state de- partment and tine foreign embassies that there were lU overtures on behalf of Spain for peace or the cessation of hostilities until the French ambassa- dor last Tuesday afternoon presented a note to the president. This state ment is made with a full knowledge Of European denials and must be accept ed as that of the government of the United States. Therefore all talk about bad faith shown by our govern ment in pressing the Porto Rican cam paign during the last few days is ab- solutely without foundation and our government has done nothing that can subject it to criticism on this score. In addition to representatives of the United States government persons qualified to speak for the government of Spain in this country make exactly a similar statement and the charges of bad faith against the United States attributed to Premier Sagasta, are dis credited as inventions designed to prejudice the successful progress of the present peace negotiations.
 Even supposing there had been peace overtures, the military authorities re- gard Premier Sagasta's alleged state- ment that peace oVertureS would op- crate to stay the course of military operations, as little snort of amazing and as directly contrary not only to the military law of the United States, but to the whole recognized principles Of international law. In general in ternatiOnal law writers agree that mil military operations stop only when a truce or armistice is actually concluded and that this truce or armistice must be in writing. Until then the mere preliminary overtures toward a sus- pension of hostilities are not regarded as any warrant for stopping the war.

, TO DENOTE PATRIOTISM.

Washington, July 2S.-The post master general has received, through the secretary of the treasury, a sug- gestion from a prominent New York banker that the government issue a new stamp to be known as a patriotic UT special set, on the following lines: A 10-cent stamp, of which 1 cent be for postage and the other g cents voluntary gift by the pur- chaser for a warship fund, and in like proportion other stamps up to the de- nomination of $2. Not only would thousands of stamp collectors pur- chase these stamps, but hundreds of thousands of patriotic Americans, he says, would be glad of such an oppor- tunity to acquire such souvenirs, cou- pied with the thought that they had financially assisted in the purchase of a warship. The stamps, he suggests, should bear designs representing Dew ey's victory at Manila, Schley's anni- hilation of Cervera's fleet and other notable victories of the American forces

 With the understanding that no in- demnity will be demanded and that Spanish sovereignty in the Philippines win be respected, the newspapers here consider the terms of peace attributed to President Mckinley as being ac- ceptable.

 Debt

|. Chicago, July 2S.-Judge Tuley of the circuit court today ruled in favor of the shippers in a test case brought by the Illinois Manufacturing associa- tion, granting a mandate compelling the United States Express company to accept for transportation packages for shipment without the payment of 1 cent i'll excess of the regular rate.

Three million dollars annually is estimated as the sum whiGh the express con- panies will have to pay in case the opinion is sustained by the higher court.

 On July the executive council of the Hawaiian government signed a contract granting the right to the Pa cific Cable company to lay cable over the proposed route.
