Spain's Hopeless Outlook

1t may be several days before suf-
ficient Information will bc received
from Manila i'm detail to enable accu-
rate Judgment to bc passed upon the
modern type of warship in action. In
deed it is doubtful if this engagement,
even though it had been more evenly
contested. would have been regarded
as constituting a satisfactory test. The
effectiveness of swift protected cruis-
crs Of the Olympia and Baltimore
model against unarmorcd ships of
smaller armament has never been i'm
dispute. The great element of uncer-
tainty and popular as well as expert
curiosity Centers around the battleship
type. An up and down fight in the
open between the PclayO and say. the
Texas or the Indiana would satisfy
this interest, whereas the official re-
ports from Manila will i'm all probabil-
ity only pique it.
But be the technical significance of
Admiral Dewey's great victory what it
may, it is clear that in a more direct
bearing this complete triumph of Yam
kee arms is of the first importance.
J. notifies Spain in the only way which
Spain seems to be able to understand.
that her cause is hopeless and that
further persistence in ii can have no
other issue that further humiliation
and loss. If existing calculations are
not soon upset by a revolution in
Spain, the extinction of the Spanish
In, h.
goad the Sagasta ministry to make
one more desperate stand, stalking ev-
erything upon it. This would mean
naval battle in the North Atlantic,
with the odds so heavily against Spain
that while SIMPSONS fleet might re-
Ceive more scratches than Dewey's re-
oeived, the capture or utter disable
ment Of the opposing squadron would
be almost assured from the beginning
of the battle. BY surrendering now
Spain would save her Atlantic fleet
and the lingering remnant of BIanco's
army, by continuing to hearken to
the promptings of Castilian pride she
must not only lose both but get
plunged 50 much deeper into the abyss
o. bankruptcy and ignominy that there
could be no possibility of ultimate re-
Covery.
Spain is paying a dear price for her
long-continued bgotry, cruelty and
perhdy. But it is price Of her own
compromising and only those who are
ignorant of her record will feel much
real sympathy for her.

NO THRILLING WITH SPAIN.

The war ends with the fall of Cuba
The United states has no other object,
and will carry on hostilities no longer
than is necessary for that purpose, un-
less forced 10 do so by Spain, and Spain
will not be allowed to carry on a guer-
rilla warfare on the sea, such as in re-
taliation she will probably attempt.
Great Britain has already served no.
tice on both governments informally
but none the less positively, that the
great commercial nations, of which she
is chief will not tolerate an indefinite
prolongation Of hostiltes after Cuba
is surrendered.

Conditions &c Montank Point said BY
DR.. Sem to Invite Typhoid

Conditions at Montank Point Said by
. Or. senn to Invite Typhoid
Fever.
81 New York, Aug. 31.-Medical of.
dcers: ct Camp Wikoff, Montauk Point,
deny that there have been deaths at
the camp hospital from yellow fever.
The Two men whose deaths here were
said TO be attributable to the disease
named were, according to the surgeons
in charge, victims Of pernicious ma.
larial fever, which those unfamiliar
with malarial fever frequently diagnose
rs the latter. DR.: Nicholas Sem, as
sistant surgeon general, U. s. A., is
quoted as saying at Camp Wikoff:
I'm justice to the camp, want to
say that almost none Of the sickness
among the soldiers up to the present
time, and none of the deaths, have been
due to the conditions which now pre-.
vail here or have in the past. Sickness
has been almost entirely limited to
fever contracted in the south, and the
death rate would have been much
more than now had the men remained
the south instead of being brought here.
$50 far none of the fevers have been
indigenous to the camp. But if the
men are weak, they will certainly be
attacked by typhoid fever. This is due
to the germs they will get in the water.
For time this camp will be healthy
one, but in time the cesspools now
scattered so thickly about will per.
meate the earth and contaminate the
water supply.
ITO make this place healthy. we
Ihould have sy stem of drainage which
would carry away all these germs, but
to build such would cost a large sum,
owing to the extent Of the camp"
DR.. Sem said he had represented the
probable state Of affairs to the Wash.
ington authorities when the camp was
selected, but his protest had gone I'm.
needed.
Il want to say that as bad as Chick
amauga was, this place will soon be far
worse" he said. "Within three weeks,
all the disease contra ted in Cuba will
be cured. After that tn ere will be no
sickness in this camp, except what is
indigenous to 1.-THE death rate will be
vastly greater than it is now.
"Unless this camp is broken up with.
in six weeks, predict that it will be
instead of 'recuperation camp 'hor.
ror camp worthy to rank with the in.
famous pest holes Of the civil war.
