There was once an. epidemic in a town
in Jamaica (Newcastle), 1900 feet above
sea level; a slight epidemic in Madrid,
1000 feet, and several attacks in Cordova
Mexico, which is $500 feet high. But these
cases are rare exceptions. In Jalisco,
Mexico, 5000 feet high, and, like Cordova,
ON the line of travel between the City OF
Mexico and Vera Cruz, no epidemic has
ever been known. Yet Vera Cruz is as bad
a fever nest as Habana, and yellow fever
patients on their way to Mexico are con-
stantly going through Jalisco. ~ .s..ss
The germ which causes yellow fever Is
very sensitive to slight changes in tenn
perature, or it's victim is, which amounts
to the same thing. The disease never be-

Nor do epidemics occur when the mean

Cold weather at once checks an epidemic,
and freezing weather breaks it up, although
there is recorded instance of yellow fever

1878'79).

A New Society.

An association to be known as the SOciet
of the Atlanta Campaign is being formed
in every State and Territory. Every person
who was connected in any way with the
armies under Gems. Sherman, Johnston OF
Hood, from May 1, 1864, to the end of the
war is eligible to membership. George E.
BOLTON, "a South Commercial street, ST.
Louis, Mo-, has been chosen Secretary
and A. b. Leeper, Owaneco, H., is Chair
man of the Press and Transportation Com
mittee.
Comrade Leeper writes: at is proposed
that this society shall meet annually at
Kenesaw Mountain, and as far as possible
be organized as during the war, each COM
pany, regiment brigade, and division COM
manded by it's old leader or the ranking
officer now living Each State and Terri
tory forming a society will likely choose
the ranking surviving officer in that juris-
diction as President. Local branches NAV
be formed wherever there are any partici-
pants of the campaign. The parent society
will undoubtedly be under the ranking
officer under Sherman, as President, and
the surviving ranking officer under John
ston and Hood as Vice-President. 1t is
intended to meet at Kenesaw as early as
possible this Summer to perfect National
organization.

GERMAN SENTIMENT.

the report Of the Maine commission dis

by saying that it refuses to believe that

RIDING FOR A FALL.
Spain Realizes That a War Is the
Easiest Way Ont of It

NEW YORK, March pa. "Scn"
cable from London says: 1t is only
within two or three days that the con-
viction has forced itself upon most
Englishmen that war is possible be-
tween the United States and Spain. and
Continental opinion still holds to the
belief that peace will be unbroken
This view, of course, is distinct from
diplomatic opinion. which has long
recognized the difficulty of a peaceful
solution.
The Spanish people themselves. curl
ously enough, have not realized until
the present week, that hostilities are
really imminent. Madrid correspond
ents are no longer able to telegraph
the facts about public sentiment or
anything pertaining to war prepara-
tions, and therefore all intelligence
from the Spanish peninsula is under an
embargo.
The suggestion that Spain is now rid
ing for a fall comes from independent
priVatessources in Madrid to English
men, some Of whom are in the diplo-
matte service. 1t is pointed out that
even the Sagasta Ministry is beginning
TO see that war with the United States
is the easiest way to escape from the

ton. Spain is now a hopeless bankrupt.

special from Washington says: The
only important feature of to-days do
lngs. as far as known, is the ascertain
ment Of another fact set forth in the
findings of the Naval Court This de-
Velopment is of the greatest interest.
and of the utmost Importance. For sew
eral days it has been known almost pos
itively that the Naval Court finds that
the explosion that destroyed the Maine
came from the outside, and that some
kind of a submarine mine was en-
plOyed to cause it.
To-day the statement is made on the
authority of an official of the Admins
tration, who has seen the report, that
one paragraph of it is devoted to de-
monstrating that the Maine was taken
from buoy +, where she first anchored
and placed at another buoy, where the
explosion occurred, and that she was
piloted from the first to the second
buoy by the Harbor Master of the port
of Havana
This fact is shown by the testimony
of the HarbOr Master himself. an Off
Ger of rank and Importance. The find
ings Of the court do not undertake to
state whether the mine was placed at
the second buoy before or after the
Maine was anchored there

matters are becoming worse, which is
possible. but the provocation is motor
lous and scandalous, and If onerous re-
suits are proposed to us the country, en-
masse, faithful to it's traditions, will
repel them
The ''Epoca" says that Spain is try
ing to prevent war, considering it a
calamity, and has freely made import
ant concessions, such as autonomy. in
order TO avert it. Spain, the paper con-
tinues. has not lost for a single moment
her calm consideration, but she cannot
consent to the perpetual intervention
of Americans and the American Gov
ernment.
Eel Heraldo' declares that without
the intervention of the United States
the Cuban insurrection would have been
reduced to mere brigandage.
IF the revolution continues" says
"El Heraldo," sit is because the rebels
see in America hope of an ill-starred
morrow for Spain, and while this hope
exists the insurrection will maintain
sufficient strength slowly to consume
our blood and money. War with the
United States represents, then, the So
luton of the problem. which we must
examine with tranquil minds"
La Nacionar' says it awaits calmly
the approaching denouement.
"El Liberal" referring to dispatches
from Washington attributing to Pres
ident Mckinley a decision to propose
that Spain should free Cuba for an in
demnity, says: THE Government may
answer what 1t pleases; the Spanish
people as whole will not deign to dis
cuss this proposal. Spain will go to

to come to an understanding with the
hostiles
It can be stated upon high authority
that there has been no abatement of
the Presidents intention to see that
the war is terminated, when it is
closed, upon terms that will render the
Cubans practically free people. 1t is
not believed that they would accept
anything less, nor that Americans
would be satisfied if we should encour-
age settlement that would not be ac-
ceptable to the Cubans If there should
now be an armistice it would be with
the concessions made by Spain at the
instance of this country, that negotia-
tions should be opened Immediately
with the insurgents, looking TO the es-
tablishment of a permanent peace upon
these terms. 1t has long been the
hope of the Administration to bring
Spain TO the point of making PROPOSE
tions of this character as the basis of
q settlement that is satisfactory to all
parties, and it is hoped from Spain s
attitude that this time has arrived.
The friends of the Administration
feel that the situation is very delicate
one, and that much will depend upon
the course Congress may pursue. In
the meantime the President WILL on
Wednesday. send his message, asking
that an appropriation be made for the
aid of the destitute Cubans.
