Crisis at Santiago,

The report from General Shaiter to
.the, war department that he can carry.
Santiago by assault In forty-eight
hours, indicates that he is well satisfied
with the strength Of the position Of his
forces, and that ne will make the ad-
vance, II he has not already done SO, as
soon as in his Judgment the time is ripe
Z fog 1t. !: Necessary delay was caused by
getting the artillery to the front and
the rations for the troops to last them
at least three days. The difficulties In
the way OF getting these necessities for
ward the public Is familiar with.
Z There is no doubt that the Americans
have a hard fight before them, and that
the stars and stripes Will not float over
Santiago without considerable sacrifice,
but General Skaters announced policy.
IS to lose as few men as possible. He
evidently will do nothing rnsh.SThe gen.
& ieral has warned his command to do no
unnecessary fighting. The situation Is
such that state OF siege can be main
.tained until reinforcements arrive II
they are deemed necessary before the
{ final assault. II is probable, however,
!. that the American commander will de-,
+ eide to strike, the decisive blow before
the arrival OF the Spanish force of eight
thousand relnforcements, now said to
DE en- route to Santiago. j
Ceryera's fleet seems to have placed
Itself ina position of safety from the
/, shells from the American fleet, but may
+ prove powerful aid in combating the
assault OF the armv. This is grave
factor In the; case News OF the great
est Importance may be looked for from
Z; the scene OF activity at any time.
: The dispatch OF several thousand
i troops for Santiago from Tampa and
the sailing OF General Merritt for the
4 Philippines are important features OF
the news. 1t Is hoped that the general
S confidence the country has In. the out
y come OF the operations before Santiago
4 will be justified.

That Cadi- EIeet.

The Spanish fleet enroute to Manila,
but which will not likely reach there,
even IL It gets through the suez canal,
owing to its decreplt condition, Is giving
this country no concern whatever. II is
on hopeless quest. and the purpose of
Its mission. which Is alleged to be to
calm public opinion" Is destined TO
fail. Nobody believes that public opinion
in Madrid is in condition to be calmed
by any such foolish movement as is be-
ing made by this fleet.
Aside from this question of the fleets
hopelessness. there Is q significance in
the situation which Is presented by its
departure from SPAIN and in connection
with the expediency OF the United
States in sending a squadron to carry
the war into Spanish ports. The Phila-
delphia Press commenting upon this
subject, remarks that 1t ie not matter
OF pressing interest how Cameras fleet
may toll and moil on Its weary way to
Manila, save as 1t may give another ex-
ample of the helplessness of nations
without coaling stations. thus giving
rise to international questions.
L, This is true. Even II the fleet arrives
at Manila Dewey will have at least thir-
'ty days to prepare, to receive It, and to
make short work Of 1t. The Intelligent
Ger has already published a description
OF the miserable condition OF the Span
ish vessels. The significance OF the
movement, however, which is called by
our contemporary a tactical blunder,"
Is the evidence 1t gives that Spain real
lies that the gameis up. 1T Is not a
move OF desperation" says the Press,
but the scatterbrained recourse Of a
bewildered and dcmoralized bureau OF
defense, IL SpaiRs navy can be called q
defensive arm Even now the Spanish
ports are open for our attack. and the
reasons given out In Spain for. cnmpla-
cent disbelief in our intention to send q
fleet over are on o par with the conf
dence that led Montejo to expect victory
at Manila, and to believe he could fright
en- Off the Yankees by Understanding
rhetoric" -
This is all true, and far from being APP
prehensive of the movement of the
Cadiz fleet In any direction, We need
only be glad that st Is making a move
OF any sort; for. after all, is 1t only on
other act in the Spanish naval opera
bouffe.

The proclamation which General Mer-
rift will issue upon his arrival at Manila
should have a pacific and reassuring'ef-
feet upon the terrified and suffering, peo-
pie of that city. He will assure the in,
habitants that he does not come to OPP,
press but 10 free, and that the fullest
liberty and proper rights viii bc3respcct-
ed. This is In accordance with the splr-
it which prompted the war with Spain.
1t Is the policy OF the United States to
be pursued toward a conquered people.
1t viii be the same in Cuba, in Porto
Rico and other Spanish territory to be
taken by our forces. Spaniards will
have opportunity to note the contrast
between the Yankee method OF making
war and that Of their own country.

The first disturbing thought after the
honeymoon Is to wonder how he could
