R. MACINTOSH RETURNS,
HAS BEEN THROUGH CANADA
AND THE EAST.
General Belief That the War Will
Be Quickly Ended-Political Is
sues Are Temporarily Sidetracked.

Hon. Richard Macintosh returned to
the city yesterday from a five weeks
trip to New York and Canada. He re-
ports that throughout the east business
politics and everything almost is sub
ordinated TO the war. At first there
was sentiment against war and the
hope was freely expressed that the con-
flict might be averted, but since the
momentous declaration was made every
other consideration, practically, save
patriotism, was lost to view. Now the
sentiment of the business world is
that Spain must be defeated at every
turn and the war quickly ended. This
feeling prevails even in the metropol-
itan cities of Canada. In Chicago the
sentiment is the same, only that for an
exciting side topic the upward ten
dency of prices on breadstuffs is freely
discussed in and out of the stock ex-
change.
Mr.. Macintosh reports that the over
shadowing Importance given to the war
has made silver a dead issue for the
time being in the east. In his opinion
the war will be of short duration I'M
less some unexpected complications
arise with foreign powers allied with
Spain. He believes that as soon as
Spain acknowledges defeat the money
question and kindred political issues
will be again before the people for ad-
justment.
