HEBREWS IN THE WAR.
More Thnn Four Thousand yolup-
led to Fight Spain

The records of the War Department
show that there were more than 40oa
Hebrews in the American armies DURING
the war with Spain.
Capt. A. W. Murray, who has been AT
the department looking up statistics on
this subject, stated that careful perusaI
of the muster rolls of the army is suf-
ficient refutation of the assertions made
By certain uninformed and prejudiced
persons that the Jewish people were not
patriotic Americans
when war was declared" he said.
the Jewish press throughout the coun-
try reminded their people of the wauton
persecution Of the Hebrews by Spain.
covering many years. They had been
driven from their country and deprived
Of their property by the cruel, unjust
Spaniards. These papers urged revenge
as well as a fun and earnest support Of
their adopted country.
But the young Hebrew men did not
require urging. Their love for America
alone was enough and they flocked to the
standard Of liberty-the Stars and Stripes
That they fought well is a matter of
history. The first man to fall in the
attack on Manila was Sergt. Maurice
Justh. of the First California Volunteers
He was young man of bravery and
other sterling qualities, and was in the
forefront of the charge when shot down
by a Mauser rife. Sergt. Justh leaves
widowed mother in San Francisco.
Hebrew soldiers, officers and enlisted
men were among the American troops
who saluted Old Glory when it was
raised over the municipal building at
Santiago. In fact there was not an en-
gagement during the war with Spain in
which Hebrews did not take part and
many Jewish names appear on the lists
of killed and wounded. Lieut.. Com
mander Mark. of the navy, a Hebrew.

ter board of inquiry, and many cases

Speed the Parting Dodgers

In all the comfort and glory of
private coaches fit for the travels of
prime donne or princes. and loaded to
the guards with the richest wines and
viands. the Dodge Alger Relief Com
mission started yesterday on it's tour
of disappearance until after election. A
panic-stricken Credit Mobilier witness
fleeing from the inquisitive wrath of a
Congressional Committee could not
have levanted from its neighborhood
with greater satisfaction TO himself
than these whitewash selections dis
played in getting away from Washing
ton and the fire of contempt and ridicule
10 which the methods of Dodge and
Beaver have subjected the lot
But they are gone, like an azure-tint-
ed simian pipe dream, and the atmos-
phere of the capital is not the worse for
it. We can trust them fully not to
make a worse spectacle of themselves
while on the wing than they did while
here. because that would be impossible.
And We are even willing to admit that
| they will accomplish the high purpose
for which they are starting out. 1t is,
of course to spend as much of the pub
lie money as they can, and to keep out
of sight as much as possible, lest some
reliable evidence of the horrors OF AL
gerism should cross their track una
\ wares.
Another as bald headed and practical
joke as the Alger Relief Commission,
with its Credit Mobilier frontispiece,
/ has never been perpetrated upon the
country in this or any preceding gener-
alton. If it were not a piece of humor
in which a criminal disregard for Uncle
Sans pocket seems to be leading fea-
ture, it might be dismissed from con-
sideration without more than a pleas
ant smile. But it is merrily wasting
the substance of the taxpayer with
out any possible occasion. 1t is spend
ing thousands for the mere purpose of
| whitewashing a record the equity in
which, unmortgaGsd to the devil, is not
merchantable at the value of a second
| hand postage stamp.
But the people are helpless to prevent
such abuses and corrupt diversion of a
war fund confided to the President for
specific use, and upon honor. Congress,
however. will have something to say on
the subject before many weeks, and it
may be possible that there will be
ground for regret that Algerism has
been treated quite as jocularly and fes-
lively as it has been and still is by
| the Administration.

NOSE SHORTENED TODAY.
Richard Smith TO Lose His Resem-
bInnce to CyranO de Bergcrac.

New York. Oct. 16.-Cyrano de Bergerac
in real life is said to have had a nose OF
abnormal size. Richard Smith, the Cy-
rano of the Adirondacls, will enter the
operating room of ST. Vincents Hospital
early tomorrow morning and bear the
pain of the surgeons knife for the re-
moval of a similar deformity. The am
putation of a large portion of this enor-
nous nose may be performed without

A Rupture Near.

Unless the watchful correspondents
are wholly deceived. which Is highly
improbable. a crisis is near in the pro-
ceedings of the Peace Commission at
Paris. The attitude of the Americans
is so entirely contrary to that of the
Spaniards that it is impossible to make
the least headway until one or the other
recedes or a compromise is effected.
The Americans stand on the protocol
and refuse to entertain any question
outside its narrow limits; they decline
to discuss any points in relation TO the
protocol itself beyond those that are
necessary TO carry out its provisions as
they are. The Spanish Commissioners.
under the guidance of the shrewd pre-
mier maintain that the protocol settled
nothing except the matter of present
fighting; that it was a mere memoran-
dunn of subjects to be discussed subse-
quentiy, having no other. effect than to
preserve the peace until treaty should
be made; that it was not final agree
ment on the part of Spain to evacu-
ate Cuba, for example, without condi-
tions, but only meant that Spain would
enter the Commission room prepared to
entertain the idea of giving up her SOW
ereignty in the island when the condi-
tions of surrender should be agreed to
by the joint commission. In brief, they
repudiate The protocol as a document
that binds Spain to do the things there
IN provided without conditions that
would appeal to the sense of justice of
the nations.
1t will be seen that no progress is
possible on these terms. If the Ameri-
cans should consent to discuss the
question whether this nation or Cuba
should assume the Cuban debt, they
would in effect abandon the protocol as
basis of treaty. and surrender every
advantage the prowess of our arms
gave; they would simply fling away the
fruits of our victories and matters
would stand exactly as they did before
the war. Spain denies that she has
given up Cuba or anything else, except
momentarily to avoid further blood
shed; and the truce having been achiev-
ed. she is now ready to enter into ne
gotiations as to what she will do rather
than go to fighting again. 1t is plain
case of perfidy; it is the direct repudia-
ton of a formal contract, breach of
faith and betrayal not only of this
country. but also of France, which, as
a friend and in the interests of peace,
acted as heI attorney for the signing of
the agreement.

SEEKING CANAL RIGHTS.

What looks like an attempt of a new
syndicate to get the rights for an inter

now reported as being engineered BY
party of capitalists who are in cOmmuni-

II is thought by those familiar with the
situation that some officials in Nicaragua
would not be ayerse 10 granting fran
chises for consideration, even though
such a charter might prove useless. In
plain language. maritime canal officials
think the vendors of canal privileges are
not averse to selling the same thing over
and over again and letting the buyers
scramble among themselves.
But, the maritime canal officials de-
clare, they have nothing to fear in their
own territory, and if they did suffer Eng
land would take good care that nobody
got the advantage OF the Caribbean and
Pacific Transit Company.
As to the Panama Canal project, friends
of the Nicaragua scheme profess TO be-
Iieve that the United States will never
consent to recompense the Frenchmen
for fraction of what they put into the
project, which Is upwards of 800. o.011. 600.
They also say il would cost almost 500

No doubt it is highly essential that the
Kaiser should personally lead the first
religious service In the new Protestant
church at Jerusalem. and 1t is probable
that none of his subjects would have
word of fault to find if His Majesty would
only condescend TO pay the expenses of
his chrome pilgrimage. Nothing could
be further from his imperial mind. VIII
liam is of age and knows a trick worth
two Of putting his hand in his own pocket.
The cost of the journey, that is, for nee
essaries, is estimated at five million
marks. 10 which should be added four
millions for presents to the Sultan, and
three millions for backsheesh and Incl
dentals. The Kaiser means that all these
expenditures shall be covered by the Ger

five million marks. will be a personal mat

After an enormous amount of fuss and
preparation for riot, revolution and
bloodshed on the part of the French
Government the strikes in Paris have
ended without anything worse than a
little extra beer and loud talk. over in
this country we do things differently. 1t
may be suggested as pleasant and edu-
cational idea that President Faure should
invite the Pinkertons over to France, in
order to get little sensation out of a

MINE OWNERS TO BLAME.
Outraged Public Sentiment by I'm
porting Prison Cuf-Thronfs


1t is gratifying to find newspapers that
are not dominated by that class of mil
honaires who defy popular sentiment and
promote conditions that can only end in
the murder of honest toilers. The Chica-
go Journal. one of the Oldest and most
respectable of Western newspapers.
makes this editorial comment on the
tragedy at Virden:
Whatever may be said by those news

not hesitate to place the CHIEF blame for

deliberately to defy public sentiment by
dragging the scourings of Southern prison

least ten men were killed and thirty or
forty were wounded.
What was the purpose Of the Virtien
