bonuoh, mug ~ P>A
to the Standard from Madrid, by
way of France, says;
"a very upfavorable impression
has been caused at Madrid BY
kilograms attributing to Presi-
dent Mckinley the intention oil
instructing the peace commission
ers to insist upon the cession Of
Luzou, that American commerce
should have the same footing as
the Spanish in the Philippines
and that Spain must pledge itself
that none Of the Spanish colonies
will be coded to European powers,
If such are the intentions of the
United States government nego-
tiations are sure to be laborious,
even If an understanding is ever
arrived at.
"The Spanisrds consider the
cession of Luzon, their best and
most important island, to be the
death blow to their prestige and
sovereignty in those regions and
this will be irretrievably weaken
ed and crippled by the presence
of Americans in part of their
colony"
Madrid, Aug. 25-The news
papers and general public display
considerable disgust at the hasty
lrender of Santiago de Cuba
since hearing the stories with re-
gard to the defensive conditions
prevailing there told by repatriat-
ed soldiers who arrived yesterday
at Corunna by the Spanish steam
er Alichnte. There have been six
deaths among the returned soldiers
since arrival, and many others are
feared. A special commission is
now meeting to decide upon the
question of quarantine. Military
authorities have begun to dis
tribute arrears of pay to the re-
patriated troops.
Washington, Aug. 25-Orders
have been issued directing Gener
al Miles to send home from Porto
Bico all the troops not actually
needed for service there. No
point has been designated as yet
for Decentralization in the United
States, but an examination of sew
eral sites is in progress. 1t is de-
sired to secure a healthful camp
and at the same time one where
Decentralization can take place at
once without any delay such AS
occurred at Montauk Point. 1t i.
expected that some of the troops
to be sent home from Porto Rico
will sail today or tomorrow. The
first arrivals will be landed at
New York City.
Washington, Aug. 25-The war
department has received the fol.
lowing dispatch: Manila, Aug.

sHfII THERE BB a FUSION or THE
SfyTFR FORCES

sHfLL THERE BE A FUSION or THE
sfLTER FORCES
The really sensibls thing TO do in
the approaching political campaign IS
for the democrats, populists and silver
republicans TO come together on a
platform with just three planls in IT,
Free and Independent coinage OF silver.
patriotic support OF the government in
the war with Spain, honest and eco
nomical administration OF govern
mental affairs for our territory, which
latter plank includes low taxes.
Neither the democratic party as a
party, or the populist party as a party,
can suffer the slightest injury on the
score OF party integrity or political
organization by uniting on free silver
ticket upon such a platform, and no
thing but selfish hopes OF political
aggrand cement can operate TO offer
the slightess objection to such an af-
fliation OF the opposition to republi-
canism aud the gold standard party.
Of course these remarks ere made
upon the idea that perfect fairness
will prevail in the division OF favors,
in the distribution OF the Offices be-
tween the old parties. Less than this
would be unsatisfactory. Less than
this would drive hundreds away from
the free silver party, or cause luke
warmness in the support Of the ticket
and the free silver cause, both unde
sirable and unfortunate.
The convention will soon meet ant
the subject OF fusion should be tho
oughly canvasscd and understood be
