WHAT WAS EXPECTED
If Spain Is Wise She Will Accept the
Terms offered Her

LONDON, July 30.-Except upon the I'M
settled point of the Philippines, the main
lines of the peace terms were already dis
counted here The editorials in the morn
ing papers today generally regard them as
evidence of a desire on the part of the
United States to treat Spain generously
and to limit, as far as possible, the extern
sion of Americas administrative respon-
sibilities beyond the seas. The papers agree
that there is no limited liability in warfare.
Spain is naturally sore, but they point
out that she must put up with the loss OF
Porto Rico, and, If she Is well advised, she
will close with the Aemrican terms

YELLOW FEvER's CHANCE
Found Its Way to the Army From the
Santiago Refugees

CHICAGO, July 29.-The first definite
statement was made today as to how yell
low fever was brought into the ranks of
the American army in Cuba. Mr.. H. l..
Beach, who represented the Associated
Press along the fighting line at Santiago
and who has just returned to Chicago,
made the statement as follows:
when General Shafter sent word to
Santiago that he intended to lombard the
city, the people all began to flee and most
of them went to Ell Caney. This Is a town
of about 800 people. but 1900 refugees went
thither and occupied the houses In which
there was room for only 800. The town
was overlooking. there was no food for
the Cubans and the army had not enough
to spare. So these people had to go out
and forage for themselves. Santiago is
known as the worst yellow fever part of
Cuba, and those people who did not carry
1t with them soon had it, for their condi-
ton, huddled together as they were, was
terrible, and brought on the pest.
know 1t to be the fact. having seen 1t my
self, that the army ambulances were used
to haul these refugees from Siboney SO
they might get food. The people waded
through the mud and were picked up by
the ambulances. Then our sick and
wounded were hauled In the same ambu-
lances. But worst Of all, 1t seems to me,
is the fact that the commissary wagons.
which always were going to Siboney and
back carrying food. went out for food, re-
turned loaded with refugees and went back
again loaded with food. No yellow fever
appeared in the army before the lines were
opened to these people from Santiago, and
DR.. Rucker of Chicago. who was with the
corps, told US just two days before yellow
fever appeared that 1t must come in forty
eight hours. He also told Major Pope, the
surgeon. but the latter said he could do
nothing to avoid It,"

was worth much to the whole country
in that it shows that there is perfect
unity in the Democratic party. Those
who are against the Teller resolution
or who are not willing to bow to the vii

out of the party. Senator Daniel truly
said that while some old leaders have
deserted the Democratic party ''bettel
leaders have sprung into their vacated

''Some have abandoned its princi-

in peeyish tones pipe the insane cries
of anarchy that amuse the ears

BILE of digCsting argument. But

absence; and they are recruits who

SPEAK IN WHISPERS. /"

Senator Frye joins Senator Aldrich in
the opinion that the Republican party
VII be defeated if it lets Mr.. Cages
talk abot the gold standard go unre-
huked.. Their idea is to always vote for
gold ami TO destroy silver. but to go on
advocating hi-metallism in words. Gage
Is honest. The rest of them are trying
TO look both ways at the same time. The
Springfield Republican exposes the pre-
tense thus:
FRYE and Aldlioh are plainly of
the opinion. therefore, that the peo-
pie are disappointed in the measure
OF prosperity which has flowed TO
them from Republican success and
Republican policies, and that the
people are quite likely to wreak their
vengeance on gold if not on tariff.
And so they advise quiet about gold.
We mean gold, they seem to say, but
don't talk so loud, gentlemen! Speak
in whispers. ii you must, but, better,
don't speak about it ut all. The
masses may overhear you and then
we are unfone. Wait at least until
after the Congressional elections.
And is this the situation of the
sound money movement today-so
precarious before the voters that it
must throw straw on the bridges and
travel under cover of the night, or if
will be located and overwhelmed?
We have not seen in a twelye-month
anything better calculated TO raise
THE spirits of tfe silver crowd than
these trembling opinions coming
from the very center of the sound
money camp"

THE BATTLE IN 1900.

We have an important contest before

said for many years that it was dead or

100000 of money and all the butldozing

Remember that jackson was nominated
and defeated and then swept away his
enemies. Remember that Jefferson was
defeated and then swept away his enc
mics. Remember that when 1900 comes
the conflicts OF Jefferson and jackson
will be repeated, and with that fearless
and peerless champion of Democracy
who has seldom had an equal in this
Government and not a superior in this
age, we wsll win the victory of 1900,
