CERvERA'S MEN HAPPY.

They Expected Torture and Death, but
Find Themselves In Clover.
The Spanish prisoners from the st.
Louis found their reception at the prison
camp ON Seavey's island a surprise party
Of very gratifying sort. They expected
death. One Of the petty officers among
them told sergeant Of marines on
guard at the camp the other morning
that they thought they were being
brought ashore to be shot.
They are comprehending their treat.
ment slowly. but the kindness they are
receiving is finally penetrating their
Spanish minds, and they are marveling
at 1t all. They never heard of such treat
ment Of prisoners before. They had beer
told before the battle of Santiago that
IL they fell into the hands of the Amer
leans torture and death would be their
portion. Instead of that they have
quarters OH beautiful island, where
some people would be glad to camp ont
for the summer for the benefit of the
climate and pleasure Of the view and
surroundings.
They are fed on better victuals than
they ever had in the Spanish navy,
have mattresses to sleep Oh, wrap them
selves in new and white blankets and
move without restriction around their
camp. They have their meals regularly,
have plenty Of air and more exercise
than their Spanish natures crave, but
none too much for the good of their
health. On the whole, they are the
luckiest Spaniards of their times. s.-New

Their First New. Of pewey.s Victory.

To lead up to tho more recent and
greater disaster l asked the assemblege
Of officers grouped around me on the
Cristobal Colon what they thought of
the Manila fight Apparently they did
not understand, and with some difficulty
I managed TO explain that their feet
had been destroyed in tho Philippines.
Polite incredulity was my reward. An
illustrated paper. showing the destruc-
tion of Montijo's ships by Admiral
Dewey's feet was on nearby table. I
presented that as document In evi.
denoe. The officers instantly crowded
about IL, and excited comments told of
their absorbed interest In the pictured
story Of Spanish disaster In the far east
They told me that v was the first they

the custom in the American navy to ex-
efcise the crews at battery practice with
full service charges at frequent and reg
ular intervals.
"But that must cost you tremendous
money" exclaimed one, an officer Of
the Colon. ."Yeg," said his companion
of tho Viscaya, "but see the result"
"Do yoo think Santiago can hold out
much longer?" the second captain Of
the Maria Teresa was asked. "No, " he
replied. They are very short Of pro-
visions there. Rice is the chief article
Of diet, little else in the way of food
being left. Beef is very scarce and very
poor"
The officer was curious to know az to
whether the Americans had suffered
much loss when their land forces made
an attack ON Santiago. He was told the
number reported lost and seemed sur
prised that it was no greater. "Wby,
we lost that many ourselves, he said,
"and yet our i2en were fighting behind
intrenchments and your men were at
lacking us.
WAS there any council OF war called
before it was determined to attempt to
force passage out?" "No, not coun-
Gil. There was an informal conference.
All agreed that the attempt was we'll
nigh hopeless, and all of us wore con-
vinoed that we would get just what we
got.'
All Of the Spanish officers seemed
deeply distressed over We disaster
which has befallen Spain. They seemed
no less astonished at their treatment as
prisoners. 1.-The Spanish press, - said
one, who begs me not to quote his
name, lis alone to blame for the awful
way in which we and the country at
large have been deceived. We had been
led to believe that the Americans would
talk and bluster, but would not fight,
and that America had no good ships.
that the few bad ones she had were
manned by foreigners, who would de.
sert in time Of war. Oh, how we have
been deoeivedL And then we were told
that we would be horribly tortured and
killed If we were captured. Now can
hardly believe my senses. We are treat
ed as friends and brothers by those we
had been taught to dread. Especial

BURTON CONSERVATIVE.
Favors McKinley's Policy of Going
Slowly-Money Against War.

Il think President Mckinley is about
as capable of attending to the business
of the United States as those who are
criticising him, and 1 am perfectly will
ing to wait for him to act in the Cuban
matter. 1 think he knows more about
1t than do; believe he is better in
Formed than anyone else; I think he
desires to avert war if possible but I
believe that if a fight is necessary to
settle this controversy, the Spanish will
get one which will wipe them off the
earth, said ]. r. Burton of Abilene to-
day. Mr.. Burton said further said:
There has been some talk about
money preventing war. That is, per-
hapS true, but it is no disparag cement
to make that statement. The great COM
mercia1 interests of this country OPP
pose war because war destroys COM
merce as peace builds it up. War is
calamity which all men desire to
avert There are today in the United
States lots of people who have no re-
sponsibilities themselves, and they are
urging war. The conservative business
interests of the country naturally want
to avoid a conflict, because it requires
years to replace what would be destroy
ed by a few months of war. If we could
place the responsible, clamorous, war
seeking people and the Spaniards in a
bull pen and let 'em have it out, some
of the difficulty would be removed.
Il believe that Mr.. Mckinley has
sound advisers around him. A proper
solution of this problem is undoubtedly
Forthcoming. I am in favor of taking
possession of Cuba, in the proper man
ner. and cause the Spaniards to cease
their cruelties against a people who
have whipped them at every turn in
the warfare which has been going on
there. If they will not act peaceabIy
then 1 hope the president will send our
troops and gunboats to Cuba; blow the
Spaniards out of the water; drive them
of the island and then anchor up along
the coast of Spain and compel the entire
province to grovel in the dust under
the American flag"

TODAY'S MARKET REPORT.
Furnished by the Associated Press to
the State journal.
Chicago, April II.

Chicago, April IL
WHEAT-The weakness with which
wheat today opened grew more pronounce
ed the day progressed The general
expectation was that the government crop
report would be bearish. Crop reports as
a whole were favorable and the weather
west was perfect for seeding opera tons.
There was a big addition to the contract
stocks today. Opening prices in July
ranged from sac to sac. There was only
a little scattered demand, and under mod
crate offerings from shorts and traders
who had covered last week the price slow
ly moved off. Liquidation increased in
volume when Broomhalls cable was re-
ments 10 376 600 bushels. July declined fl
naIly to S312c. This was under call price
and a little support from holders of those
privileges was then given the market, re-
sulting in rally to S35s@%c- Northwest
ern receipts were moderate. A decrease
in the visible of about million bushels
was looked for.
CORN-Corn was weak and lower in
fiuenced by the drop in wheat and on the
perfect weather. Short selling was quite
vigorous Receipts were 1873 cars. May
opened HMssc lower at 2912Q5sc and de-
clined to 299sc.
OATS-Oats followed corn. Little sup
port was given and the market was weak
from the start. Receipts were 166 cars.
Nav opened H6Ac lower at 251hc and de-
clined to 253sc. 1t recovered later to 2515c.
PROVISIONS-Prov were lower
due to lower yard prices. May pork OPEN
ed nc lower at $3.50. declined to $9.72h
and reacted to 1915. May lard opened 712c
lower at $5.121z. May ribs, SC lower at

"a Church

Buffalo, N. Y, April 11.-There was a
riot in front of the new Polish church
en- Playter street, near Broadway. Sun
day afternoon. For nearly an hour the
air was full of flying stones and the
street was black with an angry, vicious
mob. The doors of the church were
broken in, and all of the windows in the
front smashed before the police arrived.
The riot grew out of a split in the Pol
ish Roman church
The church that was attacked is a
temporary structure built by Apolinary
Karwoski and his followers. who seed
ed recently from the church of Bishop
kaminisl<i. The police had to be rein
forced before a quiet could be restored,
and more trouble is looked for, especial
