this basis it is impossible to make am

New York, May "a dispatch to the
Tribune from Tampa says: The army
has grown to considerable proportions dur
ing the past week. Within the military
district of Tampa there is now force OF
not les sthan 5000 of regulars and voluu-
teers. II is composed of about thirty regu-
lar regiments, as follows:
Regulars at Tampa
One brigade light artillery, Third. Sixth
and Ninth Cavalry, the First Fourth,
Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, Tenth, Thirteenth.
Sixteenth. Seventeenth, Twenty-nret,
Twenty-second, Twenty fourth and
Twenty-fifth Infantry regiments and three
companies of engineers.
At Lakeland are the First and Tenth
Cavalry.
The following volunteer regiments are
also in this district Three from Florida.
the Seventy-d1rst New York, Second Mass
achusetts and Third and Fifth Ohio, Sec
ond Georgia and one each from Wisconsin,
Michigan and Iowa.
All of the regulars and most of the vol
unteers are fully equipped and well drilled
and ready for immediate service. Those
that are not equipped can be furnished
with uniforms and supplies at once The
Second Georgia came to the rendezvous
without uniforms or guns. Gen. Shafter
says there are sufficient supplies here. and
the Georgia troops viii soon be put in
shape. The Michigan regiments came
without outfits, but will be furnished with
arms Immediately.
Gen. Shafter denied "A report that the
transports at Port Tampa are not ready
and it would take at least a week to get
them in condition for carrying the troops.
He said that all of the eleven ships that
have been here for some time are in com
plete readiness. Five or seven are now on
The way and will arrive at the port in
day or so, are thought to be fitted with
hunks and stalls. When the orders for the
arrives, he said IL will require
two or three days to get the troops, horses
and artillery aboard. He still adheres TO
his view that no movement Will be made
until the Spanish fleet has been disposed
of.
Gen. Shafter said that 5000 troops would
be enough to invade Cuba. He thought
the first expedition would not aggregate
this number, but a considerable army
would be sent over to establish a basis
and hold it and await the coming of vol
unteers under Gen Lee and others. He
said also that he did not think the move
ment would be delayed on account of siege
guns. He has received advices that forty
eight of these guns, together with 1000
men and 1S00 horses have been ordered
from Washington but they have not yet
begun to arrive. They would not be nee
essary, of course, in the commencement
of the campaign, as they are needed chiefly
to take part in bombardment of Havana.

AS TO GREAT NATIONAL DEBTS.
Spain's Financial Condition COmpar-
ed With That OF Other Nations.
From the Chicago Inter-Ocean.

From the Chicago Inter-Ocean
A table has been published which shows
that Spain owes about one-third as much
as England, about one-half as much as
Italy, and about one-quarter as much as
France in the way of national debt, and,
while the debt per capita of Spain is s73.
that of Great Britain is $S7, of Italy SIG,
and of France $116. These figures are mis-
leading. for they do not take into account
two important elements-irst the wealth
of the country, and, second, its credit
For instance, the debt per capita of Hol-
land is 1886. That of Italy is $76O6. Os-
tensibly the burden Of debt is heavier in
Holland than in Italy, but the facts are
otherwise. Holland is a wealthy country;
the people are thrifty; the internal taxes
are light; the commerce is large, and the
profits of its colonial possessions are enor-
nous. Italy is a poor country; ii has few
manufactures. and il has practically no
money invested abroad The aggregate
wealth Of Italy, including land, live stock
merchandise, ships gold and silver, rail-
ways, buildings and personal effects aver
ages about $500 for each inhabitant In
Holland The average wealth Is 1850 for
each inhabitant, and the Dutch can, there
fore, much better sustain the national debt
Of $95 each on the average than can the
Italians the debt OF SO.
In the matter of interest on debt obliga-
tons, Englands position has long been an
enviable one among European nations.
English consols paying "a per cent. sell
at about liz, and il may be said roughly
that the English government
can borrow all the money
it needs and good deal more
no doubt al an average rate of 2h per
cent. The Spanish government loans pay
ostensibly 4 per cent, but Spanish bonds
are selling al less than one-third Of their
face value. Actually, therefore. the
Spanish government is paying u per cent.
on the money borrowed-a ruinous rate
when compared with England 2Jh. Spain's
total debt is equivalent to about 81. 250. .
0O0O0 and England's to 1890, 100000. but
the wealth Of Great Britain Is four times
greater and it's credit IS five times as good.
In all computations Of national debt still
another error has come to be general
Frances debt per inhabitant is now sflb
while that Of Germany is only S1.g7. This
disparity would be very difficult 70 explain
were il not known thai each of the coiln-
tries or political divisions making up tn,
German empire has separate debt Of its
own. For instance, Bavaria has a debt
of 800, 900 d.73o,OOo000 marks. and Wur
temberg has a debt OF $9O,0O0.OO0, both
larger than the debt of The empire. which
is only T7O0Q000.

Formulation of Regulations PrOvid-
ing for Military Contributions.
Washington. May 2S.-In anticipation of
the early occupation of the Philippine Is
lands by the military and naval forces of
the United States the treasury department
has already begun the formulation of reg
ulations and a scheme of customs tariffs
which will be collected by the military au-
thorities and turned into the treasury of
the United States as a military contribu-
ton" That the President has the author
iy to collect the Philippine revenues under
existing conditions is not a matter Of
doubt. 1t was several times done
during the last war with Mexico,
and the authority of the
government in the premises was sustained
by decisions of the United States Supreme
Court. The court, In a case which grew
out of the capture and occupation of San
Francisco and all the upper part of the
state of California by United States troops.
held the President under the constitution
as a commander-in-chiefo of the army and
navy and had right to exercise the bell
ligerent right of conqueror and 10 inn
pose duties on imports as military con-
tributions for support of the army.
This view was the view held by the
court IN dnOtneF case Wnete u was also
decided the capture of Tampico. Mexico,

Gent to cause recognition from foreign
countries, did not make, in fact, a part Of

ambitious woman, who is ever urging him

are powerless to refuse him any request
and one of the eXactionS he insists upon Is
that his debtor shall introduce him and

nave themselves been ruined by the money
lender, but whose family influence is
sufficient to keep them in a certain social
station and whose scruples are not proof

Maria Martin, you have been indicted,

eountrymen of the crime Of murder ana
the court is now about to pass upon you
the dread sentence Of the law. AS

painful duty for the judge Of a court of
justice to pronounce upon a human being
