New York, Dec. 21.-It is estimated
that there are $4,000 cases Of grip in this
city. Ineficiency in street cleaning is
blamed for the spread OF the disease.
Baltimore, Md, Dec. 21.-Grip is now
epidemic in a form more serious than
at any time since it's first appearance
in 1889.
New Haven, Conn, Dec. 2i.-Grip Is
so widely prevalent as to impede work
in factories and demoralize students
and faculty at Yale. Five thousand
cases estimated.
Dayton, o., Dec. 21.-La grippe is
prevalent in this city TO an alarming ex-
tent. One prominent physician esti-
mates that nt least 5000 persons are af-
aicted with II. In one factory there
are 200 employees confined 10 their
homes with the sickness. and In some
cases whole families are down with the
ailment. So far as known no fatal
ties have resulted.

held by both nations, and mutually re-
nounce all claims for national or pri-
vate indemnity in consequence Of the
late war, as also the title TO all govern
ment property ceded by the treaty.
The remaining articles are devoted
chiefly to stipulations protecting the
personaland property rights of Spanish
subjects remaining in the islands, as
surance OF freedom in religious mat
tiers, and the regulation Of procedure in
the courts. The obligation entered into
by the United States with respect to
Cuba is limited, however, to the period
OF actual occupation OF the island.
For the exchange Of Publications of
the treaty six months from the date of
aflixing the signatures OF the members
of the joint peace commission to the
document are assigned. This leaves un-
ill June II, 1899. for final action by the
United States senate and the Spanish
congress respectively.

days in the south, arrived al the Penn

Chicago, Dec. 2i.-In an apparently
authentic form the text OF the peace
treaty concluded ten days ago between
Spain and the United States has been
made public. Coming, as IL does, from
Madrid, there is reason 60 believe that
IL is genuine. The IL articles in which
IL is comprised do not differ material
ly from the summary given out about
the time the negotiations were brought
10 an end.
The first three articles are devoted
TO Remuneration Of Spanish sovereign
~ over the island of Cuba and the di-
rect cession of the islands of Porto
Rico, Guam and the Philippines TO he
United States. The article relating to
the latter defines the boundaries Of the
archipelago by parallels Of latitude and
meridinns of longitude, as well as
names the compensation Of 100000 900
10 be paid 20 Spain by the United States
within three months after the exchange
If Publications.
The succeeding articles from the
fourth 10 the eighth, inclusive, secure 10
Spanish vessels and merchandise for
ten years the same rights Of admission
to the ports Of the Philippines enjoyed
by those OF the United States. They
also provide for the return to Spain OF
the soldiers captured at Manila AT the
expense Of the United States, and con-
cede TO Spain the right to retain the
flags and stands Of colors on vessels OF
war. together with the small arms,
ordnance, and other munitions Of war
belonging TO the land forces in the Phil

hostilities. They further provide for
